| 00:00.01 | skugg | oh, and textwrangler |
| 00:00.24 | Cope | xterm, ratpoison, firefox |
| 00:00.32 | Cope | erm, that's it. |
| 00:00.41 | z00dax | there were also a lot of HP's and Ferrari's around - i guess OpenSource guys do like their x86_64 laptops after all |
| 00:00.50 | mozrat | Cope, some sort of IRC client :P |
| 00:01.00 | Cope | mozrat: yep, running in an xterm |
| 00:01.04 | mozrat | :) |
| 00:01.05 | z00dax | ratpoison = screen for X |
| 00:01.08 | Cope | well, running in screen, in an xterm |
| 00:01.13 | desmodue | I like OSX, simply I like better Linux. |
| 00:01.29 | angelchild | but why is it called ratpoison... it's not exactly a friendly "come and use me" type name... |
| 00:01.36 | Cope | angelchild: kill the rodent |
| 00:02.00 | Cope | angelchild: why use/need a mouse? its slow and inefficient, and not needed 90% of the time |
| 00:02.19 | Blapto | except on the internet now |
| 00:02.20 | Cope | hackers like their fingers on the home keys |
| 00:02.46 | Blapto | Or WAD ;) |
| 00:02.59 | Cope | Blapto: most websites are perfectly navigable without a) graphics and b) a mouse |
| 00:03.08 | Cope | graphics is for porn or diagrams |
| 00:03.35 | Cope | so use an appropriate tool for viewing such things, when needed |
| 00:03.44 | Cope | most of the time we want text from websites |
| 00:04.03 | Blapto | Porn, yay |
| 00:04.13 | Cope | i'm unconvinced |
| 00:04.20 | Blapto | On porn or the mouse? |
| 00:04.32 | Cope | i think if I added up all the time i've wasted on porn, I could have learned a hell of a lot! |
| 00:04.51 | Blapto | Only if you count it as wasted time. |
| 00:04.51 | mozrat | Mmm, ASCII porn |

| 00:50.25 | z00dax | i had a banana based beer today |
| 00:50.30 | Blapto | Must be a good 3 hour journey though? |
| 00:50.34 | z00dax | well, that was after the rasberry one |
| 00:50.34 | Blapto | z00dax, any good? |
| 00:50.50 | angelchild | yeah, it's about 3 hours either way |
| 00:50.54 | z00dax | and after the bunch of fairly sinister random beers-of-the-week |
| 00:51.19 | z00dax | Blapto, it was amazingly good - maybe due to the fact that the ones before it were mostly crap |
| 00:51.44 | Blapto | I'll be on the look out for banabeer there. |

| 00:57.54 | Blapto | Heh |
| 00:58.07 | Blapto | I'm suprised there's no paid-for wireless infrastructure. |
| 00:58.21 | z00dax | but what surprised me was - when amongst 5 people - they pulled out a 8por switch and 6 cat-5 cables! + laptops and the usual stuff |
| 00:58.28 | Blapto | heh |
| 00:58.34 | z00dax | i mean... thats something that everyone does right... carry a switch around... |

| 01:09.05 | z00dax | angelchild, why ? |
| 01:09.09 | angelchild | yeah, he does |
| 01:09.12 | angelchild | because he's like that |
| 01:09.19 | angelchild | he has about 30-40 old computers in his room |
| 01:09.29 | angelchild | and he made a wifi dish out of pizza boxes and tinfoil |
| 01:09.39 | z00dax | 30 - 40 in a room - that must be one kickass sized room there |
| 01:09.49 | z00dax | and your whole house must buzz like a data center |
| 01:10.15 | angelchild | he has aq double bedroom and 3 racks full |
| 01:10.18 | angelchild | you can't see his floor |
| 01:10.48 | angelchild | he periodically takes out the upstairs power ring |

| 01:11.28 | z00dax | hummm |
| 01:11.52 | z00dax | i guess its cool in a cool'ish kinda way |
| 01:12.14 | z00dax | I have 12 machines @ home, but then 6 of them are in the attic |
| 01:12.26 | angelchild | oh, he has machines in the attic too |
| 01:12.36 | angelchild | they're running his wifi ISP (no customers) |
| 01:13.30 | z00dax | :) yeah, suppose its best |
| 01:15.30 | z00dax | (flood warning) |
| 01:16.16 | z00dax | Other .NET assemblies can now be accessed directly from within PHP scripts. Like that you can i.e. build GUIs with PHP using the Gnome libraries. I've already created two interesting examples including events and Drag&Drop features. You can import namespaces and types from other .NET assemblies with a spcial "using" syntax similar to the one known from C#. After doing so the imported types are avialable in the same way as classes implemented in PHP. |
| 01:17.22 | z00dax | whats this world come to ? wannabe VisualBasic dabblers, moving to .net and writing php code now |

| 21:18.40 | BobtheAvenger | although anti-gravity drive would be cool |
| 21:18.49 | Blapto | Yeah |
| 21:19.42 | BobtheAvenger | hmm i've apparently just downloaded binutils 3.9 |
| 21:20.42 | BobtheAvenger | am i missing something? |
| 21:21.23 | Blapto | Hah, got the piezoelectric clicker creating a spark where I want it, not electrocuting me every 5 seconds! |
| 21:21.42 | BobtheAvenger | cool |
| 21:21.59 | Blapto | Now to create a rig by which I can attach it inside of the bottle |
| 21:22.12 | Blapto | File the exhaust of the bottle smooth |
| 21:22.22 | Blapto | Evolve some hydrogen |
| 21:22.26 | Blapto | And my rocket will work! |
| 21:22.31 | BobtheAvenger | cool |
| 21:22.43 | stephanb2 | Blapto: building a miniature particle accelerator ? |
| 21:22.53 | Blapto | No, rocket out of an Irn Bru bottle. |
| 21:23.08 | Blapto | Fuel at the moment is hair spray and methylated spirits |
| 21:23.11 | BobtheAvenger | for a particle accelerator, i suggest copper piping |
| 21:23.23 | Blapto | Went to visit the one in CERN a week ago |
| 21:23.26 | Blapto | Damn cool. |
| 21:23.32 | Blapto | Well, about 3K, which is pretty cool. |
| 21:23.51 | BobtheAvenger | cool! |
| 21:25.21 | stephanb2 | hmm pretty explosive and dangerous stuff |
| 21:25.45 | BobtheAvenger | but cool |
| 21:26.01 | Blapto | Well |
| 21:26.04 | stephanb2 | Blapto: make sure you don't have copies of the Holy Qur'an around your house. Your rocket experiment might be mis-interpreted :-D |
| 21:26.16 | Blapto | The piezo electric lighter is so that I don't have to be right next to it when it goes off |
| 21:26.17 | BobtheAvenger | you could use another fuel, but decompose H2O2 for the oxidiser |
| 21:26.27 | Blapto | Hairspray is violent enough, hydrogen will only be worse |
| 21:26.52 | Blapto | I either need the initial burst of the hydrogen |
| 21:26.59 | Blapto | or to find a fuel that burns for about 2 seconds |
| 21:26.59 | stephanb2 | Blapto: how do u control combustion. I mean so that the whole bottle doesn't just go "bang" ? |
| 21:27.06 | Blapto | Exhaust. |
| 21:27.34 | Blapto | Make the exhaust free flowing enough that the bang goes out of it |
| 21:28.22 | BobtheAvenger | i'd experiment with a balloon, see if i can use that to force the H2 out in a controlled manner |
| 21:29.57 | Blapto | I don't want this to be too complex though |
| 21:30.12 | BobtheAvenger | true |
| 21:30.31 | BobtheAvenger | a balloon, a straw and some tape could work |
| 21:30.52 | Blapto | main aim is walk up, flush out condensation, syringe in xxml of hydrogen, retire, bang, whoosh |
| 21:31.30 | BobtheAvenger | ok |
| 21:32.11 | Blapto | I'd be happy with an initial bang |
| 21:32.30 | Blapto | but I would like to find a fuel mixture (I suspect butane will feature) that will give some sort of sustained ignition |
| 21:32.32 | stephanb2 | how does a rocket go "up" without some form of inertial navigation? |
| 21:32.50 | stephanb2 | actually they do go up because AFAIK there is no nav in fireworks |
| 21:33.31 | BobtheAvenger | the centre of gravity is further forward than the centre of pressure |
| 21:33.57 | Blapto | And fins to smooth airflow |
| 21:34.42 | stephanb2 | I remembre reading an article about nasa experimenting with candlewax + O2 |
| 21:35.13 | BobtheAvenger | yer, i dont remember anything coming of it though |
| 21:35.27 | stephanb2 | solid stick of cangle wax with a cylindrical hole in the centre |
| 21:37.31 | BobtheAvenger | yer |
| 21:45.14 | Blapto | Did it at least go whoosh? |
| 21:47.33 | stephanb2 | no it was more complicated than that |
| 21:48.05 | stephanb2 | and since then, this engineer left nasa and made a fortune with a similar sound |
| 21:48.11 | stephanb2 | he called "crazy frog" |
| 21:54.45 | Blapto | heh |
| 21:54.55 | Blapto | The author of that never made a fortune |
| 21:55.03 | Blapto | sold it for a reasonable, but not huge, amount. |
| 21:55.08 | Blapto | And the resellers get the money |

| 22:54.24 | z00dax | hey gregj |
| 23:23.33 | new2unix | hi rhowe. |
| 23:25.34 | rhowe | heya |
| 23:27.21 | z00dax | new2unix, rhowe, back in london ? |
| 23:29.09 | rhowe | Yep |
| 23:30.09 | z00dax | rhowe, did we meet ? |
| 23:30.25 | rhowe | z00dax: um.. hm, I dunno |
| 23:30.40 | rhowe | z00dax: I was in a black shirt with thin white stripes |
| 23:30.41 | z00dax | rhowe, were you there for drinks on Friday ? |
| 23:30.44 | rhowe | z00dax: Yes |
| 23:30.58 | z00dax | hanging with morsing and new2unix ? |
| 23:30.58 | rhowe | z00dax: I turned up quite late, with pdr & co |
| 23:31.23 | z00dax | I only turned up around... umm... 10:00pm or so myself |
| 23:31.28 | rhowe | ah right, same time |
| 23:31.49 | z00dax | new2unix, we met! |
| 23:31.49 | rhowe | new2unix: ! |
| 23:32.00 | rhowe | new2unix: I didn't realise you were Michael, all this time |
| 23:32.03 | new2unix | z00dax: we did? |
| 23:32.41 | new2unix | rhowe: we met several times in the past. Even at the IBM planitarium do. Remember? |
| 23:32.48 | rhowe | new2unix: Sure |
| 23:32.50 | z00dax | new2unix, yes - we met.... |
| 23:32.58 | rhowe | new2unix: I just didn't realise 'new2unix' was you1 |
| 23:33.52 | z00dax | new2unix, I was the only Indian guy there - well, me and naba - but he was mostly hanging with the Novell/Suse guys |
| 23:34.55 | rhowe | z00dax: Oh, you're kb |
| 23:34.59 | z00dax | yes! |
| 23:35.03 | rhowe | z00dax: Yeah, we met.. I shook your hand on the Friday night |
| 23:35.35 | new2unix | z00dax: You must have shown up after i'd had way too may to drink cos i still cant remember. |
| 23:35.49 | z00dax | :) |
| 23:36.16 | rhowe | z00dax: I don't recall seeing you on saturday or sunday though |
