I think I could drive around 10 or so hours in a straight line and still be in the same state
Though if I went south instead of north, I'd get to Mexico is much less than 10 hours
@Dragonrage I can drive for 10 hours in a straight line and still be in London!
@fredley I was assuming with no traffic at the speed limit
If we are going with traffic, it's entirely possible that in ten hours I am still in LA
@fredley Are there actually straight streets in London?
@Dragonrage he was assuming the usual conditions
@Dragonrage I don't think "no traffic" compiles for @fredley
@Nzall doesn't matter.
15:03
@Nzall Yes, I mean some parts of some roads are straight
csc fredley.cs --no-traffic
@Nzall I think circles are still straight lines under certain mathematical definitions.
@Arperum I drive through LA all the time. It's probably similar in amount of traffic. Though probably less roundabouts
@Dragonrage London doesn't actually have that many roundabouts, they're more of a town thing
To be fair, I don't think there are any places where you can drive for 10 hours at max speed in a dead straight line without leaving the street
15:04
@fredley I think I could drive for 2 minutes max in london without causing an accident. Why do you have to drive on the left?
like, on the world
@Jutschge In ancient times everyone drove on the left, it is you who is wrong
@fredley I don't know if LA actually has any. It probably does though
We're not in ancient times
Blame naploeon

I WILL BLAME YOU
BLAME DENIED

@Unionhawk Australia, Japan
NOT EVEN CANADA
The only person to blame is @Wipqozn
let's try again
!blame wipqozn
NOT EVEN EVERYONE UNDER THE QUEEN DOES THE THING
But at least our road signage is actually good
15:06
okay, so it's not a bot
2
Blame @Wipqozn
It's hard to type fast on a phone
Driving in America the signs are totally useless
Like, why do you even bother
I almost pulled a @gnomephone
What are you talking about our signage is fine
15:06
@fredley because they heard civilized countries have signs
@fredley Belgian road signage might be good, the roads definitely aren't.
Since when has America wanted to be a civilised country?
@Unionhawk Only because you've never experienced actually good road signage
seriously
@Arperum Belgian roads worst roads
Sometimes there is a sign saying things like "bad road next 20km" after which point, the road is generally even worse.
I'm actually trying to think of a confusing sign to do the bit where bad thing "what's bad about this" but I literally don't know what you mean, it's true
@fredley Disagree, Czech roads are worse.
@Arperum Belgian roads are a joke, but at least it's not USA levels of broken
@Dragonrage EXACTLY
@fredley what's confusing about it?
@Arperum we have a sign like that in the netherlands too
4-way stops are terrible, and banned in the UK (and most of Europe afaik)
15:09
@fredley Yeah, but you replaced them with roundabouts.
That's like +/- 0.
@Yuuki which are great
@KevinvanderVelden No, that one warns you ahead of time, the one I'm talking about is like "bad road starting now."
@Yuuki Which are much much better, since unless the traffic is very heavy you don't have to stop
4 way stops are fine in cases
roundabouts are fine in cases
Swiss roads are pretty awesome whenever there aren't construction sites. So basically only for a short time in winter
15:10
@Unionhawk They're literally not. 2 ways stops are much safer
2 way stops are stressful
@Unionhawk Why? It's half as stressful as a 4-way
The rightmost person goes first of all parties reach the stop sign at the same time
@Dragonrage define rightmost person if people come from all directions.
This applies
the left hand thing
To prevent deadlocks
It becomes whoever is the most aggressive driver
15:13
4-way stops are terrible for cyclists especially, as in fatally terrible
Then you have a race condition
2
The main way the signs are bad is the font is small and illegible
especially while moving
Like, lots of research has been done into legibility of road signage
And the US decided to ignore all of it
@Arperum Well, in the South, it's the person with the most socially intolerant views.
Which, I guess, is a different kind of race condition.
@Yuuki get out
Another example of a very helpful sign
@Dragonrage wat
@KevinvanderVelden it lets you know when the school zone speed limit applies. Very helpful to know so you don't get a speeding ticket
the speed limit is 25mph (with other relevant school zone traffic laws in force), 6:49-7:15am, 7:52-8:22am, 8:37-9:07am, 2:03-2:33pm, 3:04-3:34pm, and 3:59-4:29pm, on school days only
Why is the speed limit for a school zone 25 mph?
@Unionhawk Which is fine to read on a computer monitor, but not when travelling at 25mph (or more)
@KevinvanderVelden To kill the children more slowly
15:18
@KevinvanderVelden :so you only cripple children instead of killing them if you hit them
@fredley Right, this is why most school zones around here have flashing lights that activate in the relevant times instead of an insane list
@Unionhawk why does the school zones rule only apply during those hours?
@Nzall Because that is when students are actively going to and leaving school
15:20
I mean the real protip is just use google maps it has lane information lol
@Unionhawk does google maps help when you come to an intersection like this?
@Dragonrage RIP
@Dragonrage I'm actually trying to find where it is because my guess is there's some weird concurrance of route numbers
But yes
Ave
Ave
@Dragonrage obviously the only solution is to break the space-time continiuum and teleport to somewhere else
@Unionhawk yea I'm not actually sure where that is. The site I found it on didn't say
15:23
It looks like somewhere in delaware?
back from work invasion
Maybe?
Maybe. Never been there so I can neither confirm nor deny it
@fredley the speed limit for school zones during school hours isn't even 25 kph here
Oh delaware county OH
god dammit
stop naming counties and cities after states
15:25
What about cities after countries?
What about naming states after countries
(it's generally 20 kph, which is basically half of 25 mph)
Or cities
Ave
Ave
what about Turkey, Sampson, NC?
Lookin' at you New York
15:25
@fredley what about countries after states?
@KevinvanderVelden it's 20mph in Ohio, but it does vary by state
Anyhow. Before I go to sleep, I shall leave you all with this
Oh hey, TIL that for speed tickets they correct the measured speed by reducing it 3kph (if <100kph) or 3% (if>=100kph), and they only give you a ticket if after that you go more then 4kph faster then the speed limit (unless the speed limit is 130, then they always give you a ticket after the correction)
I thought it was just always 3kph unless >130kph
Ave
Ave
in turkey it's just perfect
@Dragonrage Sleep? Isn't it like 7 in the morning where you are?
15:31
IIRC he works night shifts?
Hmm... that might be right.
Ave
Ave
they get measured speed, then compare it to (speed_limit * 1.1). If it's under that, then no ticket.
so 120kph is actually 132
@fredley ... York isn't a country
@Dragonrage Found it, it's kind of a weird set of interactions
8 mins ago, by fredley
Or cities
15:34
If you want to go north on US-23 or US-42, you need to be on E Central, OH-37
Ave
Ave
@Nzall yeah and england isn't a city, but england is my city.
If you want to go south, you need to be on E William, US-36
Or something
It's a real weird set of circumstances based on where on-ramps exist
And it actually looks like you can end up going north on 42 the lower path anyway?
Good gravy
As long as the no turn or one way information is correct though, Google Maps would successfully guide you through this
Belgium has speed limit of 30km/h near schools.
@KevinvanderVelden Belgium has a 7% reduction thing IIRC, or 7km/h, whichever is smallest.
@Arperum 6*
at least, according to the article I checked
and it's whichever is greatest. 6 km below 100 km/h, 6% above that
Neither does explain how I once got a ticket for driving 51 in a 50 zone, while the speed pre-correction was 59.
15:43
@Yuuki I work 6 pm to 6 am thurs - mon
Since we're apparently discussing speed in both now
> bedroeg je gemeten snelheid minder dan 100 km/u, dan bedraagt de correctiemarge 6 km/u.
bedroeg je gemeten snelheid méér dan 100 km/u, dan bedraagt de correctiemarge 6 %.
So I sleep like 8am-3:30pm
@Dragonrage wait, all the time?
@Arperum I've been pulled over once. Got a warning for doing 80 in a 65 zone
@KevinvanderVelden yes
Is that even legal o.o
15:46
I'm technically a contractor so it gets a little weird with labor laws
12h shifts with no break are probably not legal.
@Unionhawk right, america
@Dragonrage you're probably not =p
Yeah no the only required break laws I'm aware of only apply to minors
But also like that aspect of the thing wasn't specified
@KevinvanderVelden You got to realize that both Belgium and Netherlands are some of the most unionized countries in the world, and unions have A LOT of power, especially compared to the USA. 11% of US employees is in a union, compared to 55% in Belgium
15:51
yeah it's real bad
And only 25% in the netherlands, 17 years ago
And I'm home. It wound up being more like 5 hours.
(hint: it's gone down every year since (though the percentage of women has been rising))
2 mins ago, by Unionhawk
yeah it's real bad
@Unionhawk I was talking about the netherlands still
15:54
@KevinvanderVelden both can be real bad
Is there an IT union I wonder
I know my sister is in the union (go little sis!)
So I looked into whether a programmer's guild or something exists and uh, it looks like not really
Like, unionization in the USA received a huge blow in the 80s during Reagan
yeeeeeeeeeee
@KevinvanderVelden Yes.
@Yuuki rekt
Damnit laptop why aren't you shipping yet (because it's a tiny company making them and I knew it wouldn't ship until feb/march)
@KevinvanderVelden if you knew it wouldn't ship until then, why are you asking why it's not shipping yet
@Nzall I DON'T KNOW I JUST WANT IT TO SHIP :(
15:57
@StrixVaria Damn. this would be absolutely unacceptable for me. The 40 minutes total commute I do is close to the max I want to do.
Ave
Ave
@KevinvanderVelden what is the company
@Nzall MY EYES ARE BLEEDING.
@Arperum Today was a holiday so the trains were even more infrequent than normal and made more stops than normal. (This should have been my first clue to check my damn calendar.)
@Arperum not for an employee no. I think you are required by law to have a 15 minute break for every 3 hours you work, and a 30 minute lunch if you work 6+ hours, or an hour lunch if you work 8+ hours.
I don't think the same applies to contractors
15:58
The artifacts are strong with this one.
@Dragonrage you are an employee of your own company though
Ave
Ave
@KevinvanderVelden ooh nice
though for a computer built for tech savvy people, making it come preinstalled with an OS feels weird
@KevinvanderVelden no. I don't have a company
(also, probably not actually a contractor if you ever wanted back-pay for that kind of stuff)
@Ave I am tech savvy and hate the idea of installing my own OS.
16:00
@Dragonrage HMMMM
@StrixVaria even windows?
@KevinvanderVelden Yeah why would I want the hassle?
Ave
Ave
because bloatware?
I mean, eve v promises to come with none of it, but still
You didn't say bloatware.
@StrixVaria just the first time you get it? I'd agree with that
inb4 "I'll bloat your ware."
16:01
My current PC came with Windows installed and I haven't had issues.
(though later when windows has blown itself up as per usual)
@KevinvanderVelden Yeah I mean installing a new OS or reinstalling windows isn't the worst, but setting up partitions and shit is bleh.
I don't like getting any lower level than I have to when it comes to computers.
Ave
Ave
mfw I installed arch to a stack user on saturday just bc I was bored
@StrixVaria it's basically "Yeah this is fine, next" on windows?
@KevinvanderVelden Right but why go through that if I can not go through that?
It then takes time to actually do.
I just don't really see an issue with pre-installed OSes.
I'm not saying it's hard to install an OS, but complaining that a computer comes with one is a little silly to me.
16:03
@StrixVaria me neither, I was assuming this was still a thing you considered an issue with reinstalling
The most recent Windows I installed myself was 8 and that one was pretty trivial.
But there's hardware to consider which is the main part.
Okay, can someone explain to me how levels work in Warframe? I see missions that say "Level 13-16" for example, but my 23 Warframe struggles in said missions.
Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's maple leaves.
10 has partial voice control for reasons
If I wanted to install Windows on my current machine I would have to put the image on a USB drive (I think? Or connect an optical drive), then change the boot order, then do the install, then change the boot order again.
16:04
@Fluttershy there's no relation between your level and the level of enemies
That's the real painful part, not the install itself.
They're just there so you can compare how hard missions will be with other missions
@KevinvanderVelden Oh really? Hmm... So it just means my weapons are bad?
@StrixVaria I see no use in setting up multiple partitions on a single drive.
The original patent for the fire hydrant was lost in a fire. (Photo: 玄史生.)
16:04
At least, nothing that can't be solved by buying a second cheaper drive.
@StrixVaria USB drive, and you can just select to boot from the drive once
Oh irony
@KevinvanderVelden Can you? That must be new since I paid any attention to the BIOS.
I avoid ever going there.
Ave
Ave
yup, you can
You generally mash a different button
So you don't even enter the bios
16:05
Neat.
@Fluttershy I don't think you should have issue with those levels. Have you installed any mods in your weapons/frame?
So things have gotten better since I've been bothered.
@StrixVaria this was a thing on my first computer
@KevinvanderVelden I have, but I haven't figured out how upgrading/transmuting mods works.
Things have remained unchanged, your awareness of things has =p
16:06
Then the person who taught me never mentioned that option and I never was bothered to look into it because I still hate messing with hardware if I can help it.
Also since I pay 300$+ a month for health insurance, 200$ a month for car insurance, plus my car payment plus other bills, I'm kind of just happy to have a job that covers all my bills
I would be happier if I had a better job, but a meh job is better than no job
@Dragonrage yay capitalism
The bagel place toasted my bagel.
And I thought the day already sucked.
Toasted bagels are good how dare you
I was at a bagel place that had freshly baked bagels.
16:08
@KevinvanderVelden what was your first computer?
I believe you are from Ohio, so you don't understand how good those are in NJ.
There is at least or exactly one good bagel shop in town, it's true
I think I actually still have my first computer somewhere. Probably still runs. Was a windows 95
BUT one does exist and it's good
That's nice.
16:09
@Dragonrage uuh, amd something or other.
I mean toasted bagels have their time and place, but not directly from a bagel shop with fresh bagels.
It's also a solid, like
30 minutes from the office
taking it out of lunch range
Ave
Ave
My first computer is with my grandparents
it was uh
I used to have a great bagel place near my school, then I moved like 50 miles
16:11
That was also like 10 years ago, so no idea if it still exists
It is just 20 minutes away actually, so like
I don't know if I've ever eaten proper bagels

@Unionhawk The coincidence is that they share a birthday, I don't think them celebrating it is a coincidence.

Well yes
But they didn't like just completely make it up like we did Christmas
I'm like 70% certain they just went through the rolls of Confederate soldiers to find one with the same birthday as MLK.

@ToxicFrog hahahahaha
partially related
(this is not easy to do because the game tries really hard to despawn that cucco when it gets out of your sight and too far from its home)
I've always liked Cuccos because they teach the player to have restraint in an otherwise "kill all things" game
I wish more games would do that. I was a little disappointed in Hat in Time that it encouraged me to gleefully massacre the Mafia (even if they're not attacking you and are talking to you) while playing up the whole "cheerful mischief" vibe
(note that hat in time is probably my favorite game of the decade, so it's not like I'm saying killing things is a deal breaker...)
