00:24:43  <Bjarni> on drugs
00:24:52  <Bjarni> unable to open a door o_O

00:25:59  <Bjarni> oh
00:26:07  <Bjarni> forgot about the moron option
00:26:20  <Eddi|zuHause> but your cat aint hammering on the door either ;)
00:26:42  <XeryusTC> true, but she does make noise

00:27:24  <Xeryus|bed> i'm really too drunk for irc :P
00:27:29  <Bjarni> <@wickedsun> I dont know the difference between games and reality anymore
00:27:29  <Bjarni> <@wickedsun> I jsut used a shotgun on my mother and she's not respawning
00:27:31  <Bjarni> o_O
00:27:50  <Bjarni> Xeryus|bed: don't IRC and drink
00:27:50  <Xeryus|bed> omfg
00:28:02  <Uatec> lol
00:28:02  <Xeryus|bed> Bjarni: i was dancing and drinking
00:28:09  <Bjarni> lol?
00:28:18  <Uatec> yes, lol
00:28:20  <Uatec> i think it's funny
00:28:29  <Bjarni> Uatec: you want to use a shotgun to see if people respawn?
00:28:45  <Bjarni> other people would call that murder
00:28:56  <Xeryus|bed> its just experimenting
00:29:11  <Xeryus|bed> you can get subsidy for killing :)
00:29:22  <Bjarni> that's what the Nazis did. People don't seem to like that
00:29:51  <Xeryus|bed> Bjarni: in the nazi's time they didn't care, 60 year later they do
00:29:57  <Xeryus|bed> to late to change it though
00:30:35  <Noldo> Xeryus|bed: who's they?
00:31:01  <Bjarni> we talk about their insane experiments, but since they were not repeated since, they gave us a lot of info about the human body
00:31:18  <Bjarni> for instance how long a person can survive in water of different temperatures
00:31:32  <Xeryus|bed> Noldo: they is the people in the 40s
00:31:39  <Bjarni> they use that when somebody falls overboard from a ship. After a while they give up since the person can't survive that long
00:31:40  <Xeryus|bed> is=are
00:31:49  <Noldo> Xeryus|bed: people where?
00:32:01  <Xeryus|bed> germany mostly
00:32:12  * Bjarni detects that Xeryus|bed is drunk IRCing
00:32:29  <Xeryus|bed> Bjarni: true
00:32:31  <Xeryus|bed> !stats
00:32:37  <Noldo> I quite sure that very many people started caring the moment they heard what had happened
00:33:15  <Noldo> but the holocaust always reminds a story about Otto and Hanz that my history teatcher used to tell
00:33:16  <Xeryus|bed> the first time they did i guess, but after the 4th/5th time they didn't care anymore
00:33:43  <ln-> what 4th/5th time?
00:33:57  <ln-> who they?
00:33:58  <Xeryus|bed> they heard about the "experimenting"
00:34:01  <Noldo> ln-: same kind of thing as "pari-kolme"
00:34:09  * Xeryus|bed <--
00:35:06  <ln-> you are claiming that all those interesting experiments were reported to average citizens around the Reich?
00:35:16  <ln-> was that so?
00:37:42  <Bjarni> I didn't say that
00:37:56  <ln-> i didn't say you did
00:38:00  <Bjarni> in fact they were told a lot of things
00:38:05  <Bjarni> but not the truth

00:43:13  <ThePizzaKing> I've just realised my computer hasn't blue scrren of deathed me again yet
00:43:35  <ThePizzaKing> I must be better at fixing computers than I thought ;)
00:54:24  <Bjarni> then fix mine
00:55:02  <Bjarni> died today... freezes somewhere between the bios screen and searching for valid start disks
00:55:10  <Bjarni> see if you can fix that :p
00:56:22  <Bjarni> this is why I hate x86 based hardware: it always fails
00:56:28  <Bjarni> at least for me
00:56:34  * Prof_Frink fixes it with a sledge.
00:56:42  <Bjarni> it's like add a PPC and then everything just works
00:56:43  <coppercore> and Mac is much bettter?
00:56:48  <coppercore> ...
00:57:15  <coppercore> too bad PPC is way overpriced
00:57:44  <Bjarni> I saw a comparison between Dell and Mac prices yesterday
00:58:02  <coppercore> ha
00:58:04  <coppercore> hahahahahhaahaha
00:58:06  <coppercore> wow
00:58:07  <Bjarni> mac was cheaper when you compared computers with similar speed
00:58:18  <coppercore> but not much runs on a mac
00:58:31  <Bjarni> well
00:58:41  <Bjarni> OpenTTD runs on mac, which is good enough for me

01:15:01  <Uatec> i have a box next to me, but it's just made of cardboard
01:15:24  <Uatec> it's on the psp which i'm happy about

20:51:42  <hylje> could town growing speed be accelerated or slowed with a setting
20:51:59  <Bjarni> sure, we could add such a feature
20:52:12  <Bjarni> somebody wrote a patch to do it

20:53:47  * Hendikins hightails
20:53:53  <Bjarni> this could be one reason why it was not added
20:54:11  <hylje> there is nothing bad with a hidden config file with everything
20:54:24  <hylje> advanced users love, normal users dont need to know
20:54:49  <Bjarni> actually Darkvater started bitching about too many options in Makefile.config not long ago and removed some of them
20:55:26  <hylje> heh
20:55:35  <Bjarni> I think we should do the same to the ingame settings
20:56:16  <hylje> scrap all options and say "its the way it was meant to be played"
20:56:32  <Bjarni> yeah
20:56:39  <Bjarni> and then set it like I like it
20:56:45  <Bjarni> I would agree to that
20:57:55  <hylje> but really
20:58:17  <hylje> amount of options is a strange thing

20:59:56  <Bjarni> I once joined a server where non-uniform stations were turned OFF and that made my half done station look stupid
21:00:08  <hylje> :D
21:00:32  <Bjarni> which means it should be hardcoded to be on
21:00:35  <hylje> maybe on server join it should pop up a dialog listing settings changed from defaults
21:00:52  <hylje> defaults/own settings
21:01:05  <Bjarni> also some of the settings should not be settings in the settings window
21:01:06  <Bjarni> like autorenew

21:05:36  <hylje> i dont really know
21:05:41  <Bjarni> :)
21:05:45  <hylje> if the game even supports addon-like stuff
21:06:09  <hylje> but categorising is fun

21:06:48  *** sw4y [n=sw4y@snat2.arachne.czfree.net] has quit [Remote closed the connection]
21:07:57  <hylje> then all categories have a switch toggling advanced stuff on/off, default off
21:08:13  <hylje> id believe most of the people would be happy with that
21:08:33  <Bjarni> then we should have "game options, global options (I don't like that name), newGRF settings and Do not touch"
21:08:45  <Bjarni> clicking the last one would quit the game without saying anything
21:08:47  <Bjarni> it should just quit

21:09:58  <Bjarni> lol
21:09:58  <Bjarni> even better
21:10:28  <Bjarni> or maybe just a red error window without quitting. That would be easier to port
21:10:47  <hylje> pretty much
21:10:52  <hylje> and less annoying
21:11:09  <Bjarni> hmm
21:11:27  <Bjarni> quick way to kill the game... just make it write something to a NULL pointer
21:11:37  <Bjarni> that will quit the game on all ports

21:32:27  <Bjarni> that one reminds me. Long ago my father invited two women from Jehovah's witnesses in and talked with them for way more than 15 minutes
21:32:42  <Bjarni> he thought it was funny since he claimed it to be bullshit in his own way
21:33:07  <Noldo> Bjarni: hey, my father has do that too
21:33:23  <Bjarni> a few months later one of them returned and thanked him. She had thought a lot about what he said and had then left Jehovah's witnesses
21:33:32  <Bjarni> then they didn't visit us again :D
21:33:44  <tefad> wow
21:34:42  <hylje> quite owned
21:34:43  <hylje> in one way
21:35:37  <Bjarni> so that is how to get rid of them
21:36:34  <hylje> not everyone can be that witty, aalthough the internet has collected info to use for it
21:36:41  <hylje> argh, typos
21:36:48  <Prof_Frink> I prefer sacrificing a cow
21:37:00  <hylje> i prefer virgins
21:37:23  <Bjarni> I learned another way to get rid of them, that's faster and easier
21:37:35  <hylje> shotgun?
21:37:39  <Bjarni> one guy got visits from them all the time and he was really annoyed
21:37:51  <Bjarni> so one time they came while he was in the shower
21:38:15  <Bjarni> he just got his ... uhh... drying thing.. around his privates and answered the door
21:38:21  <Prof_Frink> towel.
21:38:23  <hylje> towel
21:38:37  <Bjarni> I knew that... I just forgot it :s
21:38:45  <hylje> i like chainlink towels, "Now even less absorbant!"
21:38:45  <Prof_Frink> You'll never survive as an interstellar hitch-hiker
21:39:14  <Bjarni> and he said "I would like to speak to you, but I was in the middle of an sexual act and now HE is lying in there waiting for me"
21:39:21  <Bjarni> he never got a visit again
21:40:04  <hylje> its good to be secure about own sexuality
21:40:05  <Bjarni> I would have liked to see the faces of those two elderly women :p
21:40:14  <hylje> can joke about being gay
21:40:28  <Bjarni> the thing is... he might have been
21:40:37  <hylje> or -- straight in case the person is gay

23:25:37  <Bjarni> I once read a log on bash.org where two people went cyper with each other (a lame thing to do, but ok). They talked dirty for a few lines and then the guy said that it made his dick hard and the girl answered "yeah, mine too.(newline) oh shit"

23:43:54  <Eddi|zuHause> what was wrong with the sentence?
23:44:20  <Eddi|zuHause> well... maybe series requires singular, but that's all
23:44:24  <Vornicus> "the 68000 series" is singular, but "were" looks for a plural, and then I switched back to singular.
23:44:48  <Vornicus> and then "piece of equipment" does not accurately describe a "series" of processors.

23:47:51  <Bjarni> it had a really interesting design
23:48:31  <Bjarni> the 7,14 MHz 68000 should not do as much as you might expect since it had hardware to handle a whole lot of other stuff

23:50:31  <Bjarni> that's not what I usually wonder
23:50:45  <Bjarni> but why didn't nature invent the wheel?
23:50:53  <Bjarni> it's a lot faster
23:50:58  <Bjarni> think about it

23:51:22  <Vornicus> How do you feed a wheel?
23:51:37  <Vornicus> How do you seal an axle?
23:51:37  <Eddi|zuHause> not unless the nature invented roads first ;)

23:52:14  <Bjarni> I'm not into biomechanics
23:52:18  <Eddi|zuHause> and i am pretty sure the nature DID invent wheels
23:52:50  <Bjarni> if nature is so wonderful, then why didn't it invent the computer long ago?
23:52:53  <Vornicus> Sure, but the point is that 5 billion years of evolution and 5,000 years of very hard thinking by humans has not come up with a way to create an axle that is sealed.
23:53:00  <Vornicus> Um, bjarni?
23:53:08  <Vornicus> there's one sitting on your shoulders.

23:53:36  <Eddi|zuHause> a super capacitive neuronal network
23:53:57  <Bjarni> it's not a binary thing
23:54:01  <Eddi|zuHause> (or two)
23:54:13  <Eddi|zuHause> who said computers had to be binary?
23:54:14  <Bjarni> why didn't nature make a binary computer?
23:54:14  <Vornicus> massively parallel, with dedicated subsystems for sound and visual processing...
23:55:00  <Bjarni> I lack a decent video output
23:55:01  <Vornicus> Because brains rarely need to count higher than about 20.
