14:49.02goibhniuI guess morsing is having his car crushed :(
16:00.10murbwhich car?
16:03.44trousers_goibhniu!
16:05.18goibhniumurb: he was a bit nervous about his MOT last night ... we sat around and prayed for a while
16:06.02goibhniuno idea which car
16:06.52trousers_I'm bored, time to look into Gentoo development again :D
16:07.17goibhniutrousers_: yay! it's bugday today
16:07.44goibhniutrousers_: you can help me with my irc bot plugin if you like?
16:09.19goibhniutrousers_: do you run gentoo?
16:10.05trousers_It is bugday, you are involved in Gentoo?
16:10.14trousers_I run Gentoo on 3 machines :)
16:10.24goibhniutrousers_: I'm a luser :(
16:10.33goibhniucool!
16:11.00goibhniucan you tell me why nautilus crashes when I try to login to windows file shares?
16:11.08trousers_No :(
16:11.19goibhniutrousers_: PLEASE!!!
16:11.35goibhniuit's so embarrasing
16:12.00trousers_I don't know
16:13.01goibhniuthe only other thing that's bugging me is that democracy player doesn't work ... but it's pretty flakey on most systems anyway
16:13.27goibhniubut this windows share thing is really bad .. worked out of the box in ubuntu
16:13.33trousers_goibhniu: So, how can I get involved in Gentoo development?
16:13.54goibhniutrousers_: what do you want to develop? portage?
16:14.00goibhniutrousers_: I know just the thing
16:14.07trousers_Sure, anything :{D
16:14.12goibhniuthe new c based package management system
16:14.23trousers_?
16:14.25goibhniuinstead of the old smelly python one
16:14.56goibhniuyou'll like it because it's complicated and scary
16:15.08goibhniuoh it's c++ actually
16:15.46goibhniuI feel it's better to edge into these things myself though ... get to know how portage works ... maybe maintain the ebuild for something etc
16:15.56trousers_I want to develop something that's already got somewhere
16:16.07trousers_Like gentoo-sources or something nice :)
16:16.30goibhniuthis is going to replace portage in the near future

16:17.17goibhniuI dunno if the beyond patchset has a maintainer ... or an ebuild
16:17.58goibhniuor does that sound enticing?
16:18.10trousers_goibhniu: About ebuilds, are there ebuilds for every architecture or a universal one?
16:18.25goibhniubashish is also broken ... you're not interested in doing some bug fixing?
16:18.47trousers_I was looking at that earlier, I've never done ANY bug fixing, but I have to start somewhere :)
16:19.02trousers_*emerge bashih*
16:19.38goibhniulots of stuff is broken ... that sounds like a plan ... head over the the bugday channel and see what's up for grabs
16:19.45goibhniuthat would be a great way to get on board
16:20.32goibhniu#gentoo-bugs
16:20.50trousers_:)
16:20.54goibhniufirst saturday of the month
16:22.32trousers_It says devs needed! :D:D:D
16:22.45goibhniudamn straight!
16:29.34trousers_goibhniu: Gwaaaaaah, this is confusing!
16:29.43goibhniu:D
16:29.54goibhniuyou could always just lurk for a while and see what happens
16:30.01trousers_I am :D
16:30.15goibhniue.g. someone says they're gonna look at a bug ... so you try to reproduce it too
16:30.24goibhniuand if they fix it ... you can see how they did it
16:30.43goibhniuyou'll only be able to add patches to the bug reports so someone else can commit it
16:31.17goibhniuI guess devmanual.gentoo.org is worth a look while you're waiting
16:32.13goibhniuI would say the mysql one would be best avoided for now
16:32.25goibhniubut kiwi sounds easy
16:32.38goibhniucould be just a line duplicated

22:43.39trousers_niv_one_three: The Matrix has such a flawed storyline :(
22:43.53Copeit does?
22:44.00trousers_Yes.
22:44.43trousers_All the heat the humans generate is from their food - and it's actually more worthwhile to burn the food directly than have humans do it
22:44.50trousers_So they're crap robots
22:45.47trousers_When you burn it, a lot more energy is converted that can be collected than if humans digest it
22:54.48goibhniuI'm not saying it's a great film or anything but you could argue that it isn't just the electrical or thermal energy that they're harvesting but using the brains as processors
22:55.19goibhniuI know they say in the film that the humans are being used like batteries ... not sure how it's phrased though
22:55.38goibhniuwouldn't make any sense if it was just for energy
22:58.26goibhniuthe martial arts in the matrix is pretty lame too
22:59.21antiphaseIt would be easier to collect shit and burn it, then we can have humans too
22:59.55goibhniuhumans burn better than shit though
23:00.06goibhniuespecially if you dry them first
23:00.26goibhniuI guess it depends on the shit though
23:02.01goibhniubut also if they just wanted the brain power surely they'd just farm the brains ... like they do in proper sci-fi movies

23:05.24antiphaseFat people burn well if all the instances of spontaneous human combustion are anything to go by
23:06.46goibhniuthat would be a better plot line alright ... a conspiracy theory based on fast food culture and the increase in incineration
23:08.00goibhniuI guess the processed food that makes people obese could be some low grade manure they do some magic on with nano-tech
23:09.27goibhniusoylent green was pretty close I guess

23:27.55zOOzI used to be here 4 months ago
23:27.59antiphaseFor a miserable bugger he does a fair job of greeting
23:28.26goibhniuhe's the best greeter ever ... I thought he was a bot for ages
23:28.51antiphaseMight as well be most of the time. We'd need another one that answered "RTFM" to everything he said though
23:30.08goibhniua bot that answered rtfm to anyone who mentioned "expert" would be handy
23:30.28goibhniuzOOz: holidays?

23:50.56goibhniuand that some secure installations are set up like that to prevent you sniffing :D
23:51.06goibhniuantiphase: nah ...I know it wasn't you
23:52.17goibhniuanyways their whole network went down, including their notes server and intranet for 4 days ... and most people thought I had something to do with it
