[19:47] <@GlitchPC> !w 07840
[19:47] <@BC_Programming> hey Steve
[19:47] <@GlitchPC> Hey, Mike
[19:47] <@GlitchPC> How goes it?
[19:47] <@BC_Programming> good
[19:47] <@BC_Programming> heh
[19:48] <@BC_Programming> I was bored yesterday
[19:48] <@BC_Programming> so you know what I did?
[19:48] <@BC_Programming> I cracked my neighbors wireless passwords, hahaha
[19:48] <@GlitchPC> What's that?
[19:48] <@GlitchPC> lol
[19:48] <@GlitchPC> Free Internet!!
[19:48] <@BC_Programming> I discovered that I have the fastest connection as well as the best router, heh
[19:49] <@BC_Programming> well, I could have just used the two that show up that have no pw
[19:49] <@BC_Programming> the fun part is accessing their shared folders, haha
[19:49] <@GlitchPC> you sly dog
[19:49] <@BC_Programming> it's a good thing I don't write viruses
[19:50] <@GlitchPC> Heh
[19:50] <@GlitchPC> People just don't get it
[19:50] <@GlitchPC> They leave themselves open
[19:50] <@BC_Programming> yeah, I think it's because they don't actually understand it
[19:51] <@BC_Programming> some people think that it doesn't leave their house or something
[19:51] <@GlitchPC> I'm still trying to figure out why I get these strange symbols when using the weather here in this chat window
[19:52] <@GlitchPC> It doesn't give me the degree symbol
[19:52] <@GlitchPC> Just a question mark
[19:52] <@BC_Programming> interesting
[19:52] <@GlitchPC> 52.4ýF (11.3ýC)
[19:53] <@GlitchPC> what do you see there?
[19:53] <@BC_Programming> a little diamond
[19:53] <@GlitchPC> do you see the questions in triangles?
[19:53] <@BC_Programming> I think there is a question mark inside
[19:53] <@GlitchPC> are you using our Chat page?
[19:53] <@BC_Programming> naw mIRC
[19:53] <@BC_Programming> the issue is probably because of the mibbit widget, or something
[19:53] <@GlitchPC> hmmm
[19:54] <@GlitchPC> let me check it's settings
[19:54] <@GlitchPC> brb
[19:55] <@BC_Programming> now this is interesting... I copy-poasted the odd triangle thing into VB... and it pasted an upside-down question mark and a 1/2 sign: ??
[19:55] <@BC_Programming> the degree symbol is ascii code 176, some things have issues with codes above 128... it might even be the font the widget uses
[19:56] <@GlitchPC> visual basic?
[19:56] <@BC_Programming> heh
[19:56] <@BC_Programming> I already have it open
[19:56] <@BC_Programming> and I wanted to get the ASCII code for it if it pasted properly
[19:56] <@GlitchPC> let me see what it does on the forum
[19:58] <@GlitchPC> ?
[19:58] <@GlitchPC> [19:58] < @BC_Programming > what was the result?
[19:58] <@GlitchPC> same as here
[19:58] <@GlitchPC> triangles with question marks
[19:58] <@GlitchPC> ú
[19:58] <@BC_Programming> well what you just pasted showed up as an "ae" character
[19:59] <@GlitchPC> I used the alt key and a number
[19:59] <@BC_Programming> that one was a accented u
[19:59] <@GlitchPC> I forget what the code is for the degree symbol
[19:59] <@BC_Programming> 176
[19:59] <@GlitchPC> using special character keys
[19:59] <@BC_Programming> hmm
[19:59] <@BC_Programming> lemme check
[20:00] <@BC_Programming> alt+0176
[20:00] <@GlitchPC> ?
[20:00] <@BC_Programming> yep
[20:00] <@BC_Programming> shows up here
[20:00] <@GlitchPC> The board is set to UTF-8 and the widget is set to UTF-8
[20:00] <@BC_Programming> ahh
[20:00] <@BC_Programming> that's probably why
[20:00] <@GlitchPC> It has to be the bot
[20:01] <@BC_Programming> it shows up fine here, though
[20:01] <@GlitchPC> Even our DB is UTF-8
[20:01] <@BC_Programming> so can you see the degree symbol when you paste it?
[20:01] <@GlitchPC> ?
[20:01] <@GlitchPC> yep
[20:01] <@GlitchPC> just copy pasted there
[20:02] <@BC_Programming> hmm, interesting, because really it's the same thing the bot outputs
[20:02] <@BC_Programming> it might be the formatting codes you're seeing
[20:02] <@BC_Programming> because the bot bolds some parts of the weather output
[20:02] <@BC_Programming> the titles before each Colon
[20:02] <@GlitchPC> when you do a weather for your area...tell me what you see
[20:03] <@BC_Programming> well I just scrolled up to yours :P
[20:03] <@GlitchPC> k
[20:03] <@GlitchPC> you see the triangles?
[20:03] <@BC_Programming> testing bold
[20:04] <@GlitchPC> that looks bold to me
[20:04] <@BC_Programming> just the word bold?
[20:04] <@GlitchPC> yup
[20:04] <@BC_Programming> hmm
[20:04] <@BC_Programming> I dunno
[20:04] <@GlitchPC> me either
[20:04] <@BC_Programming> what font are you using? it might be that the font simply doesn't have a degree char
[20:05] <@GlitchPC> not sure to be honest
[20:05] <@GlitchPC> but you said you're seeing the same thing
[20:05] <@GlitchPC> right?
[20:05] <@BC_Programming> no no
[20:05] <@BC_Programming> the degree char shows up fine for me
[20:05] <@BC_Programming> I see the same thing when you paste it here
[20:05] <@BC_Programming> little ? in a diamond
[20:05] <@GlitchPC> oh
[20:06] <@GlitchPC> hang on
[20:10] <@GlitchPC> I can't figure it out
[20:10] <@BC_Programming> oh well, just forget about it
[20:10] <@BC_Programming> you know what the symbol is supposed to be
[20:10] <@GlitchPC> yup
[20:10] <@BC_Programming> heh
[20:10] <@GlitchPC> ?
[20:13] <@GlitchPC> heh
[20:13] <@GlitchPC> translate works, but not in the chat window
[20:13] <@GlitchPC> i think i may need to check my vbulletin onfig file
[20:13] <@GlitchPC> config*
[20:13] <@BC_Programming> I wouldn't expect it to... I think the text in the chat window would be managed by the mibbit widget
[20:14] <@BC_Programming> anyway, I finally figured out, sort of, why my video card was causing me to blue screen
[20:14] <@BC_Programming> it was directly related to watching videos
[20:14] <@BC_Programming> if I don't use any media players... no crash
[20:15] <@BC_Programming> must be an issue with the card/driver's video decoding I guess
[20:17] <@GlitchPC> So it crashes while you run a video...
[20:17] <@BC_Programming> not necessarily
[20:17] <@GlitchPC> all games have video
[20:18] <@BC_Programming> that's why it was hard to trace
[20:18] <@BC_Programming> video=> things like AVI and stuff
[20:18] <@GlitchPC> k
[20:18] <@GlitchPC> any one in aprticular causing it?
[20:18] <@GlitchPC> avi, mpg
[20:18] <@GlitchPC> mpeg
[20:18] <@GlitchPC> damn i'm tired
[20:18] <@BC_Programming> dunno... it doesn't even crash usually until hours after I've finished using the media player
[20:19] <@BC_Programming> and then randomly I get funky colours and display corruption
[20:19] <@BC_Programming> right now- I haven't played anything and the system has been up for 11 days
[20:19] <@GlitchPC> that's not bad
[20:20] <@BC_Programming> whereas, sometimes when I'd immediately reboot and play a video right after, it might have issues within an hour
[20:20] <@GlitchPC> still gaming does it though
[20:20] <@BC_Programming> no
[20:20] <@BC_Programming> games work fine
[20:20] <@GlitchPC> just the video
[20:20] <@GlitchPC> k
[20:20] <@BC_Programming> that's why I was so stumped at first
[20:20] <@GlitchPC> gotcha
[20:20] <@BC_Programming> it seemed to only crash when I was at the desktop
[20:20] <@GlitchPC> Codecs?
[20:20] <@BC_Programming> so I just don't play vids on it anymore
[20:21] <@BC_Programming> dunno if codecs would have anything to do with it, it's almost definitely a hardware issue
[20:21] <@GlitchPC> Replace the card? Thinking about it?
[20:21] <@BC_Programming> can't afford it
[20:21] <@BC_Programming> I just play vids on my laptop now
[20:21] <@GlitchPC> how much do ya need?
[20:22] <@BC_Programming> lol
[20:22] <@GlitchPC> Seriously
[20:22] <@BC_Programming> I can't afford it because I'm literally almost always broke nowadays
[20:22] <@GlitchPC> lol...aren't we all
[20:22] <@BC_Programming> I used to have hundreds of dollars to spare
[20:22] <@GlitchPC> I spend money like I change underwear
[20:22] <@GlitchPC> almost never
[20:22] <@BC_Programming> lol
[20:23] <@GlitchPC> brb...dog is barking
[20:23] <@BC_Programming> woof
[20:23] <@GlitchPC> have to take him out
[20:23] <@GlitchPC> I'll be back in a few
[20:23] <@BC_Programming> k
[20:29] <@GlitchPC> back
[20:29] <@BC_Programming> wb
[20:29] <@GlitchPC> ty
[20:29] <@GlitchPC> gtbb
[20:29] <@GlitchPC> heh
[20:30] <@GlitchPC> anyway...gonna check the config file for vb then head off to bed
[20:30] <@BC_Programming> alright then
[20:30] <@GlitchPC> have to get up early for work in the am
