Session Start: Thu Jul 18 00:00:00 2013 Session Ident: #glitchpc [00:00] * Now talking in #glitchpc
[00:00] * Topic is 'Welcome to #glitchpc chat. Profanity, trolls, and impersonation are not welcome here. Street1 has become a Silent Keyboard. http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/savannah/obituary.aspx?page=lifestory&pid=139870551'
[02:58]<+camerongray> I see programming help!
[03:00]<+camerongray> Doggy in the office :D
[03:00]<+camerongray> Doggy is sleeping :(
[03:05]<+camerongray> Awww, he's dreaming!
[03:13]<Zuwer> Speaking of dogs, our dog must really hate winter, she has been sleeping in front of the fire most nights recently.
[03:13]<+camerongray> lol
[03:13]<+camerongray> This dog is just too hot :P
[03:14]<+camerongray> Think he's pretending though, postman came in and he woke right up
[03:14]<+camerongray> As soon as he left he's 'sleeping' again
[03:15]<Zuwer> She's a Bichon Frise, she loves being out of the fenced off section, so during the last picking season we took her down into the orchards. After the 2nd or 3rd time, she didn't want to, I must admit, even I didn't want to, some days it was freezing (What we call freezing anyway).
[03:15]<Zuwer> Heh.
[03:18]<+camerongray> Ahh nice!
[03:18]<+camerongray> This one is a border collie
[03:20]<Zuwer> Awesome, they're awesome dogs. Unfortunately we've never had one.
[03:21]<+camerongray> Yeah, super smart
[03:22]<+camerongray> Thinks he's a cat though, throw a ball and most of the time he'll just stare at it as though he's asking you to get it for him
[03:25]<Zuwer> Heh, there are far more important things to do, like sleeping, or eating, or... I'm sure I don't need to continue.
[03:25]<+camerongray> hehehe
[03:33]<Zuwer> Spending $400 on a headset... I could never justify doing that. :s
[03:36]<+camerongray> lol, same
[03:36]<+camerongray> My speakers were around £100, wouldn't go higher than that
[03:38]<Zuwer> Got Logitech UE 4000 headphones for my desk, and UE 200 earphones for everything else.
[03:38]<Zuwer> I haven't got speakers. :P
[03:38]<+camerongray> lol
[03:38]<+camerongray> Not sure if I'd need a headset, I often get up and move around :P
[03:39]<+camerongray> I have Sennheiser CX300 mkII earphones that I use with my phone or at work
[03:39]<Zuwer> I guess, if no one complains about playing music through speakers, may as well use them.
[03:41]<Zuwer> They look like nice earphones.
[03:41]<+camerongray> Yeah
[03:42]<+camerongray> I still keep getting up and forgetting I have earphones in :P
[03:43]<Zuwer> Heh, I know that feeling, although my issue is the wires getting hooked on things.
[03:44]<+camerongray> Ahh

[06:14]<+camerongray> http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,138800.0.html
[06:15]<+camerongray> Person provides very little info... "The PC is overheating." "the heat sink fan on your CPU has failed or is failing and should be replaced" "there you can also check your hard disk or motherboard"
[06:15]<+camerongray> What happened to checking what the problem is first! :P
[06:16]<+pottsi> cmon now 47inch tv with hdmi cable
[06:16]<+pottsi> go figure
[06:17]<+pottsi> bet it's a basic win 98 pc xD
[06:36]<+camerongray> lol
[06:37]<+camerongray> I don't see how people can do that!
[06:37]<+camerongray> "My monitor is bigger than yours" "Yet mine, depsite being half the size, is higher resolution"

[12:38]<@BC_Programming> hmm Resharper 8 doesn't accept my legit Resharper 7 license
[12:38]<@BC_Programming> I shall get a new key from them :D
[12:48]<jamer> Lol
[12:48]<@BC_Programming> why you laugh
[12:49]<jamer> You and your silliness
[12:49]<@BC_Programming> how is that silly...
[15:52]<@BC_Programming> oh man... something is really gobbling my RAMz
[15:52]<@BC_Programming> just noticed my commit charge is at like 90% which explains why everything is responding about as quickly as the catholic church
[15:54]<+camerongray> tehehe
[15:54]<+camerongray> Reminds me of my friend describing his program as "Working less than a gypsy on benefits"
[15:55]<@BC_Programming> lol
[15:55]<+camerongray> The things you here in a world leading university :P
[15:55]<@BC_Programming> lol I quit Visual Studio because it's been running forever and has like 4GB allocated for no reason
[15:55]<+camerongray> That was around the same time as "If this doesn't work, I'll shove that Christmas tree up yer arse"
[15:55]<@BC_Programming> And it shows a little dialog "Loading Components"
[15:55]<@BC_Programming> "NO! WRONG WAY visual studio"
[15:56]<+camerongray> hehehe
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> oh man it really is throwing a tantrum
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> also there are apparently two instances that are using 4GB of memory which may explain why my PC is swapping like a con-man
[15:57]<@BC_Programming> and the moment I say that suddenly the second instance decides to appear, out of nowhere
[15:57]<@BC_Programming> like it's been running this whole time and the taskbar forgot about it or something
[15:58]<@BC_Programming> We can do this the easy way or the hard way Visual Studio 2012
[15:58]<@BC_Programming> Don't make me use tskill
[15:58]<@BC_Programming> now it's apparently "preparing solution"
[15:59]<@BC_Programming> woah... their windows are like popping on and off the taskbar
[15:59]<@BC_Programming> this is crazy, it's like whack a mole
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> oh well I like any excuse to use Process Explorer and forcefully kill processes
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> It's over... I beat the final boss of my computer, Visual Studio 2012
[16:03]<@BC_Programming> haha wow
[16:04]<@BC_Programming> Physical Memory load went from 90% to 15%
[16:08]<jamer> camerongray want to see how my speakers are hooked up atm :P
[16:08]<+camerongray> sure
[16:09]<jamer> http://postimg.org/image/woolubjup/
[16:09]<+camerongray> Nice! Can the PC drive them without an amp?
[16:10]<jamer> yeah!
[16:10]<+camerongray> sweet!
[16:10]<@BC_Programming> those are smaller than my speakers
[16:10]<jamer> at 16% volume on the laptop i can hear them decently ... 100% you can feel them XD
[16:10]<@BC_Programming> you know the ones I don't remember using for a long time
[16:10]<+camerongray> lol
[16:11]<@BC_Programming> there is interference with the speakers or something, seems like the little volume control thingie isn't shielded and should be
[16:11]<+camerongray> Mine: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bose-Companion-2/dp/B000BWH8KC
[16:12]<jamer> that has a amp in it ironically mines higher wattage speakers O.o mine are 12 watts a speaker
[16:13]<@BC_Programming> these are mine http://technojunk.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/vs2421.jpg
[16:13]<jamer> i dont have my box built for them
[16:13]<+camerongray> Ahh yeah, I remember seeing those in a photo of your desk at some point
[16:14]<@BC_Programming> that is not surprising since that is where they would be heh
[16:14]<+camerongray> Mine were like £100 so not super high-end, but work really well
[16:14]<+camerongray> lol
[16:14]<@BC_Programming> I don't know how much these ones cost
[16:14]<@BC_Programming> I'm not even sure if I bought them or somebody gave them to me as a gift or something
[16:15]<jamer> mine was free camerongray lol ... all i needed was to grab a part of the wiring harness and hook up the 3.5 mm end
[16:15]<+camerongray> lol
[16:15]<+camerongray> Mine sound really good
[16:16]<jamer> 6% is still hearable
[16:16]<+camerongray> Funny thing - Almost took them back because they seemed to be crackling - Turned out it was the music :P
[16:16]<jamer> mine do cause my laptop doesnt have ground XD
[16:16]<@BC_Programming> teehee
[16:17]<@BC_Programming> It's weird having two sound cards
[16:17]<@BC_Programming> my X-Fi will sometimes decide to stop working
[16:17]<@BC_Programming> a lesser man would reboot
[16:17]<@BC_Programming> not me, I swap the plug to the on-board and switch to it
[16:18]<+camerongray> Fancy! I just use onboard
[16:18]<jamer> mines onboard
[16:19]<@BC_Programming> I bought the X-Fi for my older PC
[16:19]<@BC_Programming> I would have preferred to not have on-board sound and been able to get some other motherboard feature like SLI or crossfire or something
[16:20]<@BC_Programming> but that wasn't much of an option
[16:35]<+camerongray> Oh yeah, what did you have before your Core 2 Quad?
[16:35]<@BC_Programming> Pentium 4
[16:35]<+camerongray> Ahh, big step up :P

[16:40] * Nat (natman97@mib-921C62AC.socal.res.rr.com) has joined #glitchpc
[16:41]<+camerongray> nice!
[16:41]<+camerongray> I have some 80s/early 90s stuff but got that more recently
[16:41]<@BC_Programming> the 486 was because the Pentium's integrated graphics failed when I removed the "decoration" that was apparently the heatsink
[16:42]<+camerongray> hehehe
[16:42]<+camerongray> Love the Acorn stuff - At the time just UK designed and built PCs, not very well known outside of the education market - Now the CPU developed for them them (ARM) is in everything!
[16:43]<+camerongray> So I own one of the first ARM CPUs!
[16:44]<@BC_Programming> hey cool, if I was able to get the ad revenue from adsense I'm making about enough to cover hosting costs
[16:44]<@BC_Programming> like 3 dollars a month lol
[16:45]<+camerongray> nice
[16:45]<+camerongray> £22.27 current balance
[16:45]<@BC_Programming> well I don't really know, but I made 4 dollars last month apparently
[16:45]<+camerongray> Last paid out £62.54 at the end of March
[16:45]<@BC_Programming> 28 dollars total, can't actually get any of it until it reaches 100 I think
[16:45]<+camerongray> Yeah
[16:46]<+camerongray> £60 here, but that's in £
[16:46]<@BC_Programming> what are getting adsense from?
[16:46]<+camerongray> Unshorten.it mostly
[16:47]<@BC_Programming> ahh yeah
[16:47]<@BC_Programming> alexa pagerank for unshorten.it is 2,013,339
[16:47]<@BC_Programming> bc-programming.com is 13,402,459 This means we must duel
[16:48]<+camerongray> wow nice!
[16:48]<@BC_Programming> somehow we managed to edge out teachmelee.com
[16:49]<+camerongray> lol, still very odd
[16:49]<+camerongray> "I only advertise software that I have installed on my own computer."
[16:49]<+camerongray> Well then
[16:50]<@BC_Programming> oh supertweaker
[16:50]<@BC_Programming> oh he rejoined btw
[16:50]<+camerongray> *facekeyboard*
[16:50]<@BC_Programming> "leeray" if I recall
[16:50]<@BC_Programming> apparently doesn't realize that the association is pretty easy to make
[16:50]<+camerongray> Remember my KB is 2kg+ so it hurts!
[16:50]<+camerongray> In every situation my customers save 100 to 500 dollars.
[16:51]<@BC_Programming> oh wow
[16:51]<@BC_Programming> you know how I interpret that
[16:51]<@BC_Programming> he pirates software for them probably
[16:51]<+camerongray> lol, most likely
[16:51]<+camerongray> So many stores do
[16:51]<@BC_Programming> " If you needed to reinstall Windows and brought your computer to the store, the cost would be close to 400 dollars." WTF? where is he getting that from
[16:52]<+camerongray> lol!
[16:52]<+camerongray> I'd do £100 tops!
[16:53]<@BC_Programming> perhaps I should do a bit of SEO guff
[16:54]<+camerongray> lol!
[16:54]<+camerongray> We got an email at work from an "SEO Agency" saying we would get page 1 and our SEO doesn't work
[16:54]<@BC_Programming> oh yeah those pop in a lot
[16:54]<+camerongray> Our company measures SEO!
[16:54]<@BC_Programming> I think I had a few spam comments like that
[16:54]<+camerongray> Amongst other stuff
[16:55]<@BC_Programming> still need to finish my VB series, almost feels like work though
[16:56]<@BC_Programming> I'm getting about 1K hits a day on just the blog
[16:56]<+camerongray> My blog gets decent traffic but thinking about scrapping it and replacing with a simple "about me" site
[16:56]<@BC_Programming> huh 24 people have viewed my MLP fanfiction today
[16:56]<+camerongray> lol - if you use the word "hits" where I work you get something thrown at you :P
[16:56]<@BC_Programming> which is worrying since it's hidden
[16:56]<@BC_Programming> re: hits I'm just quoting cyStats :P
[16:58]<+camerongray> Ahh
[16:58]<+camerongray> Adobe SiteCatalyst is where it's at!
[16:58]<+camerongray> Only £££,£££ a year!
[16:58]<+camerongray> And it still doesn't work! Super fun!
[16:59]<+camerongray> Today someone at a cleint thought "Why does the company who builds our reports need API access" and pulled it - broke all our scheduled scripts!
[17:00]<@BC_Programming> and of course they blamed you guys
[17:00]<+camerongray> The API also has this super feature where instead of giving an error, it returns nonsense!
[17:01]<+camerongray> So we request to breakdown by browser, resolution and country - API breaks down by browser, resolution, resolution
[17:01]<+camerongray> FIne for now because I see it, but we want to launch this for people to use - CAn't have it spitting out reports of nonsense!
[17:01]<+camerongray> Oh, and if you made an API, how would you return dates?
[17:02]<@BC_Programming> probably a standard format of some sort
[17:02]<+camerongray> Would you do "19th of July 2013"?
[17:02]<@BC_Programming> isn't there a standard HTTP cookie date format? I'd probably use that
[17:02]<@BC_Programming> lol no!
[17:02]<+camerongray> Adobe does
[17:02]<+camerongray> Cried when I saw it
[17:02]<@BC_Programming> wow
[17:02]<@BC_Programming> I would too
[17:02]<@BC_Programming> that's TheDailyWTF material
[17:03]<+camerongray> yeah
[17:03]<+camerongray> I should!
[17:04]<@BC_Programming> hmm cyStats has changed for this version
[17:08]<+camerongray> I use GA and Piwik
[17:08]<+camerongray> Liking Piwik though
[17:09]<+camerongray> Nice change from GA and SiteCatalyst at work
[17:09]<@BC_Programming> cyStats is a wordpress plugin
[17:11]<+camerongray> Google did a presentation to some of our clients - Had these videos, dead funny! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbtf1oyNg-8
[17:31]<+camerongray> Iceland
[17:31]<+camerongray> oops
[17:31]<@BC_Programming> lol
[17:31]<@BC_Programming> Reykjavik!
[17:31]<+camerongray> hehehe
[17:59]<jamer> my laptop is designed for 4 ohm's O.o
[18:07]<Rikai> on purpose?
[18:09]<jamer> yeah ....
[18:12]<jamer> dell's spec says 4 ohm
[18:56]<+camerongray> OMG!
[18:56]<+camerongray> http://pastebin.com/8sX5Atw1
[18:56]<+camerongray> Look at the_wanderer and then db
[18:56]<+camerongray> Then look at how he denies it!
[19:04]<@BC_Programming> who's Packet?
[19:04]<@BC_Programming> OMG
[19:04]<@BC_Programming> I didn't even look at wanderer... AWESOME
[19:04]<+camerongray> Some knob
[19:04]<+camerongray> But yeah
[19:05]<@BC_Programming> did you notice right away
[19:05]<+camerongray> Completely destroyed the last strand of credibility he had!
[19:05]<+camerongray> I noticed just before he left
[19:05]<+camerongray> But as soon as he rejoined I spotted the hostmask
[19:05]<+camerongray> I'd checked it orignally to see if it was DB's that I recognise (plusnet)
[19:06]<@BC_Programming> bahaha
[19:06]<@BC_Programming> I like when he comes back
[19:06]<+camerongray> I want to spread it somehow
[19:06]<@BC_Programming> and he's all like "just got back"
[19:06]<+camerongray> From paris obviously!
[19:06]<+camerongray> At 2am
[19:06]<@BC_Programming> "my opo lurkus on the pc"?
[19:06]<+camerongray> And also lurks on CH of course
[19:07]<@BC_Programming> haha Paris
[19:07]<@BC_Programming> That's awesome
[19:07]<@BC_Programming> "we both use the same systems . and the punction used is required on those systems" BAHAAH
[19:07]<@BC_Programming> F-ing retard
[19:08]<+camerongray> Yep
[19:08]<+camerongray> Not sure what to do with it now
[19:09]<+camerongray> Sent it to calum obv, sure him and Cassie will have a laugh
[19:09]<@BC_Programming> I could post it on CH
[19:09]<@BC_Programming> title
[19:09]<@BC_Programming> "DB's Paris Adventure"
[19:09]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[19:09]<+camerongray> But you aren't in CH
[19:09]<@BC_Programming> I mean the forum
[19:10]<+camerongray> But how did you get the log?
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> you gave it to me on pastebin
[19:11]<+camerongray> But then it shows I'm doing this
[19:11]<+camerongray> And that would piss him off :P
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> You're making them act like stupid fucktards?
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> no they do that themselves:P
[19:12]<+camerongray> I suppose you could, say you saw it or something :P
[19:12]<Zuwer> Isn't it great when people have weird little habits when typing.
[19:12]<+camerongray> Yep!
[19:12]<@BC_Programming> The heisenberg uncertainty principle states that stupid people won't be observed as being stupid until somebody points it out or something
[19:12]<+camerongray> Post it on the forum if you want :P
[19:12]<@BC_Programming> nah I'd have to interject my own colourful comments
[19:13]<+camerongray> Ahh, do that then!
[19:13]<@BC_Programming> but I'd also have to avoid breaking forum rules, tricky
[19:13]<+camerongray> If he questions, just say that it happened and I said "Did you see that" to you
[19:13]<@BC_Programming> Or just tell the truth and say that he shares when you do your standard stupid bullcrap
[19:14]<@BC_Programming> the solution isn't to ban you
[19:14]<@BC_Programming> the solution is to stop being a stupid moron
[19:14]<@BC_Programming> probably beyond his ability though
[19:14]<@BC_Programming> I like how his systems "require" him to type like that
[19:14]<@BC_Programming> really, into an IRC client
[19:15]<+camerongray> yeah
[19:15]<+camerongray> Please post on the forum :P
[19:15]<Zuwer> Maybe he just loves to push the space key. :x
[19:16]<+camerongray> hehehe
[19:16]<+camerongray> Done it before too, caught him then
[19:16]<+camerongray> But didn't have the balls to confront him
[19:16]<@BC_Programming> I would have
[19:16]<Zuwer> He's using Mibbit too... Have you seen me use the space key unnecessarily.
[19:17]<@BC_Programming> of course when it comes to "confronting" db it's sort of like attacking a gerbil with a bazooka
[19:17]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[19:18]<@BC_Programming> He tries to deflect and then gish gallop with some irrelevant nonsense and I keep refocussing until he get's frustrated and refuses to take part in the discussion or leaves because "he has work to do"
[19:18]<@BC_Programming> oh also he just asserts that "that is complete BS" which leaves me of course totally convinced
[19:19]<+camerongray> yep!
[19:19]<+camerongray> I better get sleep
[19:19]<@BC_Programming> kk
[19:19]<+camerongray> I want to wake up and see a forum post! :P
[19:19]<Zuwer> Out of curiosity, is it even likely that he maintains the number of servers/client machines that he states he does?
[19:19]<@BC_Programming> no, he's a liar
[19:20]<@BC_Programming> if he works in a IT office or shop of any sort, he's the Janitor
[19:21]<+camerongray> lol!
[19:21]<@BC_Programming> actually that would explain a lot
[19:21]<+camerongray> I highly doubt it!
[19:21]<+camerongray> Says my keyboard contains transformers under each key
[19:21]<@BC_Programming> see that supports my theory
[19:21]<Zuwer> Protecting the systems from bacterial attacks?
[19:21]<@BC_Programming> he would expect them to have transformers because he's not allowed to vacuum the computers
[19:22]<@BC_Programming> It's all coming together!
[19:22]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[19:25]<Zuwer> So, it'd be safe to assume that it's an ego contest in CH.
[19:25]<+camerongray> Yep!
[19:25]<@BC_Programming> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN-pXWHqAAM
[19:25]<@BC_Programming> DB wit hhis office friends starting at 0:30
[19:27]<@BC_Programming> I always find that hilarious but for some reason it's funnier to imagine it as the sort of this DB does on a daily basis
[19:27]<+camerongray> BAHAHA!
[19:27]<Zuwer> Heh.
[19:28]<+camerongray> Anyway, closing client... now!
