[00:19]<Tux2> heh, I'm charging another car battery using jumper cables from my car...
[00:19]<@bc_programming> interesting
[00:20]<Tux2> My car battery is going out, but my alternator is over voltaging sometimes so until I get the new alternator in I don't want to risk a new battery
[00:20]<Tux2> So I just charge the new one just enough to jump start the car if needed.
[00:42]<@bc_programming> wish I had more broken PS3's to gut and take their hard drives
[00:42]<@bc_programming> I wanna try FreeBSD on actual hardware rather than a VM :P
[00:46] * @bc_programming tries to make a second cup of tea with a no-name brand tea bag
[00:46]<@bc_programming> "2-cup" teabags my ass
[00:53]<Tux2> heh
[01:04]<Tux2> Okay, onward to double chest support now!
[01:04]<@bc_programming> cool
[01:05]<Tux2> Of course it only puts down a double chest if you have too many items and there is space for it...
[01:23]<Tux2> lol! I have a chest that is going out in 4 directions!
[01:23]<@bc_programming> haha...
[01:37]<Tux2> Oh, I now know how you can burn water...
[01:42]<@bc_programming> haha
[01:43]<Tux2> I left a pan of water to boil on the stove. I always catch it just as it boils, but not today...
[01:43]<@bc_programming> Oh I thought you meant in MC
[01:43]<Tux2> It burned the calcium deposits on the bottom of the pan!
[01:43]<Tux2> lol
[01:44]<@bc_programming> calcium deposits, heh hard water
[01:44]<Tux2> Yup
[01:44]<Tux2> Pan is plenty clean now. ;)
[01:44]<@bc_programming> I've let things boil dry before... nothing was ever at the bottom :D
[01:47]<Tux2> lol
[01:54]<@bc_programming> hmm thought of an idea for a Let's Play series
[01:54]<@bc_programming> but it would be LOOONG
[01:54]<@bc_programming> Mario 64
[02:05]<Tux2> lol.
[02:05]<Tux2> lp series are usually long
[02:42]<@bc_programming> never mind that
[02:42]<@bc_programming> fraps is a piece of crap
[02:43]<@bc_programming> or, I could just make what I have so far the first episode, since it's pretty much 20 minutes
[02:53]<Tux2> lol
[02:54]<Tux2> within 45 hours of releasing the newest version of MonsterBox I've had over 1.2K downloads of it.
[03:01]<@bc_programming> haha cool
[03:05]<@bc_programming> I should try to implement the idea for raycasting I had in baseblock, to see what is visible from a given position
[03:06]<@bc_programming> could be useful for... something, I guess
[03:08]<Tux2> lol
[03:12]<Tux2> Okay, marathon coding session is over for tonight. Time for bed...

[06:52]<@bc_programming> whew... nearly a day and a half of semi-constant coding
[06:53]<+camerongray> lol
[06:53]<+camerongray> What's that for?
[06:53]<@bc_programming> first I was working on baseblock, then I wrote that python script for playing sounds when I plug a USB drive into my laptop, and now the Freelance thing that I should not be spending time on at all since I've not won it yet
[06:53]<+camerongray> hahaha
[06:53]<+camerongray> I really want to do more programming but need ideas :P
[06:53]<@bc_programming> but if I DO get it I'll have a very good head start
[06:53]<@bc_programming> I needed practice for WPF, and never used ADO.NET before, so I'm using both of those
[06:54]<+camerongray> cool
[06:54]<+camerongray> What's the project?

[06:56]<@bc_programming> so far for the main window I've got this http://www.bc-programming.com/downloads/JobClock/PinEntry.png
[06:57]<@bc_programming> and then when a valid PIN is entered and the checkmark button is pressed, it shows this: http://www.bc-programming.com/downloads/JobClock/ScanOrder.png
[06:57]<@bc_programming> and it shows errors if the pin is invalid for whatever reason
[06:57]<+camerongray> nice
[06:58]<@bc_programming> I have the Data Access Layer half done, then I'll have to hook it up to the stubs I already have in the main window
[06:59]<@bc_programming> I also PM'd the guy with those two images and to find out exactly what kind of Barcode reader they mean
[06:59]<+camerongray> Nice
[06:59]<+camerongray> It's probably just a keyboard one - Just inputs the code like a keyboard
[07:00]<@bc_programming> I like how half of the other bids are obviously foreign, heh
[07:00]<@bc_programming> actually all of them seem to be
[07:00]<@bc_programming> I like the one saying 1500 dollars delivered in 45 days, haha
[07:00]<@bc_programming> yeah I've been working on the assumption it's a keyboard one
[07:00]<+camerongray> yeh
[07:01]<+camerongray> I really want to do another .net program - Need ideas :P
[07:02]<@bc_programming> you could make a search program like BCSearch but in .NET
[07:02]<+camerongray> Possibly
[07:02]<@bc_programming> Search programs are kind of fun to make
[07:02]<+camerongray> I like the idea of using databases though
[07:02]<@bc_programming> hmm
[07:03]<+camerongray> Doesn't have to be .net - Thinking about PHP too
[07:03]<@bc_programming> do both, make them work together
[07:04]<@bc_programming> sort of like how my BCUpdate Library connects to BC-Programming.com to get information about the versions of the stuff online compared to what is installed
[07:04]<+camerongray> Yeh
[07:04]<+camerongray> Was thinking a support ticket system with a .net client
[07:04]<@bc_programming> a Bug tracker
[07:05]<@bc_programming> that would be cool
[07:05]<@bc_programming> I was thinking in passing ages ago I might try to write one
[07:05]<+camerongray> Ahh
[07:05]<@bc_programming> then I ended up writing the stuff for commenting on Downloads which I had to rip out of it because it was only being used as an attack surface, lol
[07:06]<+camerongray> hahaha
[07:06]<@bc_programming> and it wasn't displaying properly, it said 0 comments according to the download page but in phpMyAdmin the table was like 50K records
[07:07]<@bc_programming> filled with stuff like ;cat ../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd and stuff
[07:07]<+camerongray> lol
[07:09]<@bc_programming> you could always try to write a new block for BASeBlock based on one of "samples" I included in the latest version
[07:09]<@bc_programming> well the latest uploaded version anyway
[07:10]<+camerongray> hmm - Might make a url shortener and distribute it on sourceforge
[07:10]<@bc_programming> cool
[07:10]<@bc_programming> and then register www.shorten.it
[07:10]<@bc_programming> heh
[07:10]<+camerongray> Yeh
[07:11]<+camerongray> Aww - it;s registered
[07:11]<@bc_programming> is it? I got not found
[07:12]<+camerongray> Whois says it is
[07:12]<@bc_programming> oh wait I was putting in www.shorten.it that's why... heh
[07:13]<@bc_programming> doshorten.it is available
[07:13]<@bc_programming> heh... unshorten.it and doshorten.it
[07:14]<@bc_programming> heh... so as usual I've been up all night
[07:15]<@bc_programming> and just as I'm wondering why the heck I always seem to do more at night than the day, I get a newsletter titled "Why Programmers work more at Night"
[07:17]<+camerongray> lol
[07:17]<@bc_programming> http://swizec.com/blog/why-programmers-work-at-night/swizec/3198
[07:17]<@bc_programming> it's actually quite an interesting read
[07:19]<+camerongray> It is

[07:28]<+Mulreay> Interesting stuff
[07:28]<@bc_programming> indeed
[08:09]<@bc_programming> WPF is like a million time better than windows forms
[08:09] * pottsi (Mibbit@pottsi.staff.mibbit.net) has joined #glitchpc
[08:09] * ChanbotV sets mode: +v pottsi
[08:09]<+Mulreay> Is that something to do with .net ?
[08:10]<@bc_programming> WPF is like the new thing to use with .NET
[08:10]<+Mulreay> ahh
[08:10]<@bc_programming> BASeBlock and most of my other stuff uses the "old" Windows Forms
[08:11]<@bc_programming> if I ever get around to rewriting BCSearch I'll probably use WPF heh
[08:11]<+Mulreay> cool
[08:21]<@bc_programming> my favourite pony is carwash rugmuncher
[08:21]<+Mulreay> lol
[08:21]<@bc_programming> now I'm going to have to watch that episode again
[08:23]<@bc_programming> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTZbRUrN2bo
[08:23]<@bc_programming> I love this guy's stuff
[08:34]<+Mulreay> haha funny stuff
[08:36]<@bc_programming> yeah I've seen them all at least like 3 times
[08:51]<@bc_programming> so yeah wish me luck with that freelance thing
[08:51]<+Mulreay> Yeah, good luck... sounds like your being pro-active with it
[08:52]<@bc_programming> I'm sure I'll learn to NOT work on anything until my bid is accepted though, lol
[08:52]<+Mulreay> heh
[08:52]<@bc_programming> "Alright, I've got the entire thing finished"
[08:52]<@bc_programming> "oh I went with this guy in India, he said he'd do it for some curry"
[08:52]<+Mulreay> lol

[09:20]<@bc_programming> but it didn't work

[09:52]<+Mulreay> heh, I was meaning to try that
[09:53]<@bc_programming> hmm
[09:54]<@bc_programming> I just remembered my desktop has a wireless card in it
[09:54]<@bc_programming> but it doesn't work for whatever reason
[09:54]<@bc_programming> hmm looks like it doesn't have the driver installed... that... well that's a bit weird, really
[09:56]<@bc_programming> weird that I would have forgotten about it all this time
[09:56] * afr (iSun@810E3307.32BD5386.14B510DA.IP) has joined #glitchpc
[10:01]<+Mulreay> Something so simple as well
[10:01]<@bc_programming> ahh seems I had a good reason for not using it
[10:01]<@bc_programming> the drivers don't install, haha
[10:02]<+Mulreay> heh, that would be it then
[10:02]<@bc_programming> "Click Next to continue"
[10:02]<@bc_programming> so I click next and it quits
[10:02]<@bc_programming> haha
[10:04]<@bc_programming> I'd install my TV Tuner card but it's not supported on Vista/7
[10:05]<sonicrules1234> bc_programming: Linux!
[10:06]<@bc_programming> not a <censored> chance of me putting that on my desktop
[10:06]<@bc_programming> pardon my french
[10:07]<+Mulreay> lol
[10:07]<+Mulreay> well said though
[10:08]<@bc_programming> the day I find a piece of hardware not supported on a modern Windows version that works flawlessly on a Linux distro is the day I find a piece of hardware not supported on a modern Windows version that works flawlessly on a Linux distro.
[10:08]<@bc_programming> I sort of forgot where I was going with that
[10:08]<@bc_programming> I almost had my WinTV USB tuner working in VLC
[10:09]<@bc_programming> but I couldn't change to the S-Video
[10:10]<@bc_programming> will see of my TV Wonder 200 is known to work just for curiousities sake
[10:10]<+Mulreay> I'm currently building a HUGE fleet to wipe out the Spanish navy... but hay they started it
[10:12]<@bc_programming> lol... the card doesn't work well under Linux either anyway
[10:12]<@bc_programming> according to the google of knowledge
[10:13]<@bc_programming> it's funny because I don't think I ever actually used the card. I'm not even sure why I bought it
[10:13]<@bc_programming> I think I was distracted by the artwork depicting a guy who seemed to be on the receiving end of a professional escort service
[10:14]<@bc_programming> if I ever design box artwork I'll put a disclaimer
[10:15]<+Mulreay> heh
[10:15]<@bc_programming> "Warning: Consumers on product packaging are not as happy as they appear"
[10:16]<@bc_programming> I used to do that. good times
[10:16]<+Mulreay> lol
[10:16]<@bc_programming> I'd just go to the store to buy random crap and then never use it
[10:16]<@bc_programming> "OMG CD Burners for 10 dollars"
[10:16]<@bc_programming> so I bought 3
[10:16]<@bc_programming> haven't used any of them
[10:16]<@bc_programming> but I mean it was 10 dollars
[10:17]<@bc_programming> well 9.99 technically
[10:17]<@bc_programming> "OMG a phono 3.5" to stereo AMP jack! I don't know wtf that is but I'll buy it anyway
[10:18]<+Mulreay> lol, I do that sometimes
[10:18]<@bc_programming> yeah you know the thrill of spending or something
[10:19]<@bc_programming> it was either that or save it, I guess. Something unsettling about having 800 or so dollars in ones account
[10:19]<@bc_programming> not that I'd be opposed to that now of course, lol
[10:19]<+Mulreay> heh, true
[10:20]<@bc_programming> I think I paid 40 bucks for my Queen Music
[10:20]<@bc_programming> it was the "Platinum Collection" that swayed me
[10:20]<@bc_programming> even though the box is gray
[10:20]<+Mulreay> worth every penny
[10:20]<@bc_programming> I guess "gray collection" wouldn't have sounded as cool though
[10:20]<+Mulreay> or cent
[10:20]<@bc_programming> Yep
[10:22]<@bc_programming> I have games I bought and played like, twice
[10:22]<@bc_programming> I bought the original Sims with all the expansions
[10:22]<@bc_programming> but I usually get bored of it by the time it get's past loading
[10:22]<@bc_programming> then I lock a bunch of kids in a room until the room is filled with urine
[10:23]<@bc_programming> I should try to play that game properly some day
[10:23]<@bc_programming> you know, without playing mind games with the poor fellas
[10:23]<@bc_programming> "I see you are heading towards that door. BUT IT'S GONE NOW! HAHA"
[10:24]<@bc_programming> "WHat's that? You want to sit in the chair? WHAT CHAIR? *delete chair*"
[10:24]<@bc_programming> then decorate their house with golden toilets
[10:25]<@bc_programming> and SimCity 4, that seems like an OK game too
[10:27]<@bc_programming> Microsoft Intellipoint 6.0... wonder where I got that from
[10:27]<@bc_programming> probably a mouse I guess
[10:28]<@bc_programming> ahh yes my labeling is so concise
[10:28]<@bc_programming> "stuff"
[10:28]<@bc_programming> lol here's the best part
[10:28]<@bc_programming> it's empty
[10:30]<@bc_programming> I should try starcraft again
[10:30]<@bc_programming> though I'll probably end up like the last time, in the attic with no real recollection of how I got there
[10:31]<+Mulreay> lol
[10:31]<@bc_programming> finding all my stamped/"official" type discs that I bought at some point or another
[10:31]<@bc_programming> starcraft isn't one of them, though iirc it was almost one of those impulse buys
[10:32]<@bc_programming> but I decided that buying a 80 dollar kit & kaboodle for a game franchise I was unfamiliar with was a bad idea
[10:35]<@bc_programming> and yet I paid like 240 bucks for a Windows XP disc
[10:38]<@bc_programming> here is one I labelled "Season 3 Disc 1"
[10:38]<@bc_programming> Of what? Who knows
[10:39] * afr (iSun@810E3307.32BD5386.14B510DA.IP) Quit (Quit: fk ya all am rich)
[10:39]<@bc_programming> "E: drive backup"
[10:39]<@bc_programming> I really should have thought harder about these labels
[10:45]<+camerongray> lp;
[10:45]<+camerongray> lol*
[10:45]<+Mulreay> heh
[10:45]<@bc_programming> omg... that E: backup disk has an ancient .chk file that I made by combining a bunch of other .chk files when my first USB drive gave up the ghost and I lost everything
[10:46]<@bc_programming> but everything I lost is in that CHK file
[10:46]<@bc_programming> I can see bits of my chess program in there
[10:46]<@bc_programming> ahh the memories
[10:47]<+camerongray> Tux2, you there?
[10:48]<@bc_programming> I could probably reconstruct my chess game with this
[10:49]<@bc_programming> I totally forgot about how complicated it is
[10:49]<@bc_programming> to have stuff like castling and em-passant implemented
[10:50]<+Mulreay> oooooh chess, we never did have a game.. I know it's not your thang but I need to beat you on something
[10:50]<@bc_programming> my chess game had it's own AI
[10:50]<@bc_programming> it beats me
[10:51]<@bc_programming> hmm, file date on this, 1/15/2005
[10:51]<@bc_programming> hard to believe it was 6 years ago I wrote this stuff
[10:52]<@bc_programming> I particularly like my attempts to handle DISK FULL errors when moving pawns. Not sure how moving a pawn could fill up a disk
[10:52]<@bc_programming> but I was prepared nonetheless I suppose
[10:53]<+Mulreay> heh
[10:54]<@bc_programming> heh, one of the variables for recording when a piece was hit by a hittest
[10:54]<@bc_programming> "pieceshit"
[10:54]<+Mulreay> lol
[10:54]<@bc_programming> yeah it's supposed to be read pieces hit but obviously there is another interpretation, lol
[10:55]<+Mulreay> New NC video
[10:55]<@bc_programming> some of my comments are sorta funny in here
[10:55]<@bc_programming> The Game Object encapsulates the required communication between the game and the CHOMP
[10:56]<@bc_programming> CHOMP apparently stands for CHess Object Model Program
[10:57]<+Mulreay> not a bad analogy... pieces chomping others and the such
[10:59]<@bc_programming> yeah pretty sure I made it up on the spot at the time
[11:01]<@bc_programming> heh... heres one Public Sub DisplayMessage(Byval StrText As String, Byval MessageIco as MessageIconConstants, Optional ByVal MessageTimeOut As Long, Optional ByVal DisplayTip As Boolean=False,Optional Byval ToolTipTitle as String = "", Optional Byval ToolTipText as String="",Optional ByVal ToolTipPicture As StdPicture=Nothing)
[11:01]<@bc_programming> it is described thusly:
[11:02]<@bc_programming> 'this is an intriguing procedure
[11:04]<+Mulreay> heh, I can't make head nor tail with that
[11:05]<@bc_programming> It clearly explains what the function does
[11:05]<@bc_programming> something intriguing, it would seem
[11:05]<+Mulreay> You seem to forget who your talking to
[11:05]<@bc_programming> the description is right there, "this is intriguing"
[11:05]<@bc_programming> that is seriously the only comment that describes it
[11:06]<@bc_programming> I have no clue what it does myself

[11:09]<@bc_programming> heh that suddenly reminded me of something I did back when furbies were popular
[11:09]<@bc_programming> somebody had one
[11:09]<@bc_programming> and I was holding it
[11:09]<@bc_programming> and it said "I Love you"
[11:09]<@bc_programming> and I was like "Dear god... it's mastered emotions"
[11:09]<+Mulreay> lol
[11:11]<+Mulreay> I have to say out of everything I think 'Emotion' will be the last if not the one thing we can never program... only because to program emotion would be to 'push emotion' on to something so it would not be a true emotion.
[11:12]<@bc_programming> the difficulty is that it's impossible to give anything something that cannot really be clearly defined
[11:12]<+Mulreay> very true like 'love'
[11:12]<+Mulreay> which is an emotion

[11:13]<+Mulreay> Agreed
[11:13]<+Mulreay> lol
[11:14]<+Mulreay> Plus you can't ever program 'second guessing'...
[11:14]<@bc_programming> you should watch the rest of those Mentally Advanced Videos if you liked the one I showed you
[11:14]<+Mulreay> We all make a decision and sometimes a while after you would ask yourself... 'actually may be'?
[11:14]<@bc_programming> the bloody things are hilarious
[11:15]<+Mulreay> Yeah, may have a look later
[11:16]<+Mulreay> What's the best way to remote your PC to your laptop over an extended period?
[11:17]<@bc_programming> how do you mean
[11:17]<@bc_programming> you mean control it remotely like with VNC or something?
[11:17]<+Mulreay> I go to London on Monday and would like to leave my PC on so I can remote it from there
[11:17]<@bc_programming> oh, I'll be honest, I've never been able to get that type of thing to work
[11:17]<sonicrules1234> I have
[11:17]<sonicrules1234> Once
[11:17]<@bc_programming> you'd have to make sure ports are open and stuff
[11:18]<+Mulreay> yeah
[11:18]<sonicrules1234> Mhm
[11:18]<+Mulreay> sonicrules1234 pre tell
[11:18]<@bc_programming> I did use Remote desktop once, actually, but it was within my LAN so doesn't really count
[11:18]<sonicrules1234> I VNC'd into our home computer from my grandpa's house
[11:18]<+Mulreay> Yeah I can do it at home here, but on another network I'm not sure
[11:18]<sonicrules1234> Just make sure your settings are perfect before leaving
[11:19]<sonicrules1234> Mulreay: Make sure to forward the ports too
[11:19]<+Mulreay> I don't have access to the network until I get there so how will I know?
[11:19]<@bc_programming> you would need to forward the ports to the server, which in this case is the computer you want to control remotely
[11:19]<sonicrules1234> Mulreay: You could have somebody else try to get in
[11:20]<sonicrules1234> bc_programming is right
[11:20]<@bc_programming> and of course if you use VNC, you would need to install VNC and whatnot
[11:20]<sonicrules1234> Mhm
[11:20]<+Mulreay> I have that
[11:29]<+Mulreay> wHAT DO i SET THE SERVER AS?
[11:29]<+Mulreay> oops
[11:30]<+Mulreay> Nice catch there ChanbotV
[11:34]<@bc_programming> no idea myself
[11:34]<@bc_programming> I just wrote a quick python script to count lines in my source code
[11:35]<@bc_programming> BASeBlock is about 58,328 lines of code
[11:36]<@bc_programming> wait set the server as... you would want to run the VNC server on your machine, not connect to one...

[12:07]<@bc_programming> I'm trying to type something and I brush against it and it clicks on some random spot so suddenly I've deleted a paragraph or something
[12:08]<@bc_programming> and I have syndaemon running, it should be making it ignore touchpad clicks for 2 seconds after the last keypress

[13:02]<+Mulreay> Yeah she's not happy.... I tried to hide the screen and that made things worse. She's gone downstairs to watch TV..
[13:02]<@bc_programming> she isn't happy that you have no pants?
[13:03]<+camerongray> Depends what was on the screen :P
[13:03]<+camerongray> Say these exact words - "It was a popup"
[13:03]<+Mulreay> No she's not happy about me pushing her hand away from the laptop and say 'What? What do you want?.
[13:03] * @jacky is dying... heheheeh
[13:03]<+camerongray> oh
[13:04]<@bc_programming> his pants were a popup

[20:56]<Tux2> Oh, just needing to put you in the elite players group
[20:57]<sonicrules1234> :P
[20:57]<sonicrules1234> Ok, lemme update to 1.0.0
[20:57]<@bc_programming> wut
[20:57]<@bc_programming> you've not updated yet?
[20:58]<sonicrules1234> No, but I downgraded to 1.8.1 previously
[20:58]<@bc_programming> o
[20:58]<Tux2> ah
[20:58]<@bc_programming> then again I've not been following the weekly builds

[20:59]<@bc_programming> I've been paying attention to them just not installing them, because the first one changes the biome code

[21:14]<@bc_programming> I'm pretty sure the wireless-N card I have in my desktop is a bigger pain in the butt than it should be
[21:14]<@bc_programming> drivers refuse to install and it seems to be interfering with the sound card because it's constantly crackling
[21:14]<@bc_programming> Time to remove it :P
[21:14]<@bc_programming> and I was going on a new record, uptime of 31 days
[21:15]<@bc_programming> It's probably getting dusty inside anyway
[21:17]<@bc_programming> heh, it has to install updates even though it has no net connection
[22:16]<@bc_programming> haha
[22:17]<@bc_programming> changed the connections so that I could mess about with my Dell machine to try to setup a wireless bridge, swapped the wireless card into it
[22:17]<@bc_programming> had it all connected
[22:17]<@bc_programming> then realized I didn't have an OS disc, haha
[22:18]<@bc_programming> I think it has Mint 7 installed but bridging wlan0 and eth0 seems to be an exercise in futility when I can just select them in windows and choose "bridge connections" heh
[22:27]<@bc_programming> yep it has Linux Mint installed, I think it's Mint 9, not sure though
