[02:20:10] login it's ytp: youtube poop

[02:20:35] login that is the term fo rit

[02:20:37] login *for it

[02:21:27] login you don't subscribe to youtube channels: good

[02:21:35] login it's a huge timesink if you get addicted

[02:21:41] login might have mistapped

[02:21:53] login or, if on a computer, misclicked

[02:22:18] login if you go to google takeout, you can get your youtube data out

[02:22:26] login there, you'll be able to find out when you subscribed

[02:22:32] login if you're curious enough about it

[02:56:23] login photo of chicken dinner, MatCat?

[03:01:45] login oven

[03:02:21] login i wonder how restaurants can get those

[03:03:03] login not even close to 1/3rd though

[03:03:12] login india+china would be 1/3rd

[03:16:53] login they messed up the rain sound distribution

[03:17:25] login but understand getting rain right is not value for money spent doing it

[03:17:30] login money or time

[03:17:43] login the game devs are overworked

[03:18:17] login you know what they say, the size difference between your index and middle finger is proportional to a certain other appendage

[03:19:25] login actually, it's a different ratio

[03:19:42] login ratio of length of index finger to ring finger is inversely proportional to appendage size

[03:20:25] login oh nice, so you don't use the mini version of the phone?

[03:20:44] login what about a netbook laptop?

[03:21:03] login macbook (the discontinued one)?

[03:21:48] login usually you revert to the mean

[03:22:00] login aka a pissing contest

[03:22:02] login !bang

[03:22:13] login yes, the size of the middle toe

[03:22:19] login i mean, shoe size*

[03:22:37] login is that UK 10?

[03:22:58] login mine is 8

[03:23:01] login uk 8

[03:23:17] login for female?

[03:23:32] login for a tall woman?

[03:23:51] login how does she balance?

[03:24:08] login that is short

[03:24:16] login but normalised for height?

[03:24:39] login foot size is not in the 23rd pair of chromosomes though, right?

[03:24:55] login what about for a 5 feet 9.5 inch woman?

[03:25:11] login yeah

[03:25:26] login which is what i have

[03:25:40] login there are women who are that tall though

[03:26:43] login but 6' is the minimum qualification, isn't it?

[03:26:52] login aren't you 6' too, ComputerTech?

[03:26:57] login for being eligible

[03:29:11] login how do you find shoes?

[03:29:48] login why aren't you happy with 6'?

[03:30:18] login you know, being too tall isn't good?

[03:31:12] login yeah, it's the perfect height

[03:31:52] login i say no

[03:32:02] login don't drink twice in two days

[03:32:04] login golden rule

[03:32:25] login you'll go over 50% then

[03:32:52] login well, preaching to the choir isn't exactly effective

[03:33:05] login you could take some liver-healing supplements too, if need be

[03:34:26] login wouldn't that look like a back brace or corset?

[03:34:40] login that pressure unit though

[03:34:55] login 1011 mb = millibar?

[03:35:18] login they didn't use atm, bar/kPa or Pa

[03:35:51] login do you know, if you connect via irccloud, they could log your messages?

[03:36:26] login does a flu vaccine work?

[03:37:01] login wow, Kuro-chan is head over heels for you

[03:37:08] login why, Kuro-chan?

[03:37:18] login ComputerTech lol

[03:37:26] login did you get chicken pox?

[03:37:43] login that sounds like sarcasm to me. why does he deserve so much praise?

[03:37:55] login more than doctors and aid workers?

[03:38:34] login they can't require the flu vaccine

[03:38:53] login but for longer-term immigration, yes

[03:38:59] login irc_standardnick: pakistan and?

[03:39:11] login so adjacent neighbours

[03:39:40] login it's okay if everyone around you is vaccinated, but if those strains show up in public, the non-vaccinated are at risk

[03:39:58] login don't travel too far around, ComputerTech

[03:40:13] login like, don't go to Asia

[03:40:22] login or you might find yourself at risk

[03:41:39] login do they require proof of vaccination or just a declaration?

[04:23:15] login why do botanists have to write the canonical description in latin?

[04:23:59] login css sprites was the first time i had heard of sprites

[04:24:26] login are the prices not listed?

[04:25:42] login so you're in thailand then, MatCat?

[04:25:50] login is it not illegal to not display prices?

[04:26:32] login well, i guess differential pricing is an economic possibility

[04:27:18] login i guess your liquor store doesn't have you as an everyday customer, MatCat

[04:27:37] login when he charged you the random "leet" price of 13.37

[04:27:45] login you could have kept it back

[04:28:06] login ^ they know

[04:28:55] login imagine running a store without any displayed prices

[04:29:02] login ^ definitely

[04:29:33] login it's 5 in the morning, ComputerTech

[04:29:36] login how are you going to get to work?

[04:30:00] login you'll get charged higher MatCat, if you ask first

[04:30:09] login When he states a price of 13.37, you give him what you think is the fair price

[04:30:22] login He won't protest it if it's just a few dollars

[04:32:28] login pure ownwage?

[04:32:33] login *ownage

[04:32:47] login why is your bicep paining, ct?

[04:33:46] login ComputerTech: do you know Kuro-chan in real life?

[04:34:37] login how will they know it's you and not someone pretending to be you?

[04:37:57] login you should share a public key here that you hold the private key to

[04:38:03] login if you sign a message with the private key, we'll know it's you

[04:38:13] login unless you distribute the private key

[04:38:31] login USB stick or yubikey?

[04:39:27] login lol, get a proper hardware key

[04:39:38] login a file on a usb with no copy is not safe from being lost

[04:40:13] login how did you make copies without connecting to a computer?

[04:40:59] login there are killer usb sticks

[04:41:06] login they'll fry the computer as soon as you connect them

[04:41:26] login yes, Kuro-chan, i copied what you said without giving you credit

[04:41:37] login but frying a computer is not the same as blowing it up

[04:42:00] login Kuro-chan: you mean plagiarism

[04:42:18] login all the better for identity purposes

[04:42:29] login *identity-protection

[04:42:49] login How do you make copies of your usb stick, i wonder

[04:43:01] login without connecting to a computer and copying the file

[04:43:33] login Kuro-chan is more impressive so far than ComputerTech in computer technology

[04:43:47] login yes, of course

[04:44:00] login you build the code, graphics and even music

[04:44:06] login it's not just web dev, it's game dev

[04:44:26] login ComputerTech: does it have graphics?

[04:44:36] login how do you detect touchpad gestures, Kuro-chan?

[04:45:19] login Making graphics, writing code, writing music - those are three different skills

[04:46:22] login backend programming is not that simple: involves writing algorithms and knowing how to store data (data structures)

[04:46:54] login ComputerTech: are you on leetcode?

[04:47:29] login you should get on there, or try project euler

[04:47:40] login if you can get through those, then you can do programming professionally

[04:49:25] login did you make the resource editor?

[04:49:43] login how can a browser play such sounds without lots and lots of sine waves?

[04:49:56] login did you make your own instruments?

[04:50:12] login so plagiarised the rest/

[04:50:27] login oh yeah, i know those

[04:51:07] login one person i know who was good at those, on irc in fact, now works for a company that scans the internet for objectionable material

[04:51:11] login for law enforcement purposes

[04:51:30] login he also made some really cool terminal-based multiplayer games

[04:51:57] login how do you get timbre in your sounds in the browser?

[04:52:19] login it's not a pure tone right?

[04:52:26] login it's not like a whistle

[04:53:42] login herald: why?

[04:53:57] login hello herald

[04:54:20] login do you generate noise in js?

[04:55:03] login it might have been copied from there

[04:55:13] login so, how do you compress it all?

[04:55:26] login i assume it's not hardcoded to save space

[04:55:40] login so it will be different noise every time, right?

[04:55:54] login herald: no, i did not load up any of the big leecher count things

[04:56:07] login !bang

[04:56:32] login ^ yes, i guess that is true

[04:56:41] login what about instrument?

[04:57:13] login it's incredible that just those four can generate such a wide variety of sounds

[04:57:27] login how come SID doesn't have sine

[04:57:37] login sine is the easiest one to make

[04:58:23] login how do you decide on the notes?

[04:58:49] login tunes

[04:59:29] login ComputerTech: Kuro-chan is not just a 'techy', but a full-on artist

[04:59:58] login do you hum while setting it on the computer?

[05:00:11] login or can you pick notes perfectly?

[05:00:24] login ski: how do you have a cup that can hold a spider?

[05:00:37] login well, that is really good Kuro-chan

[05:00:48] login i took vocal lessons too, but i know i don't have perfect pitch

[05:01:10] login i cannot identify the note without a base to count up from

[05:01:30] login how did you prevent the spider from falling out the bottom when you picked the cup back up, ski?

[05:01:41] login 3 years over irc?

[05:02:26] login i should try that next time

[05:02:29] login newspaper + cup

[05:02:53] login you worked on this rpg for over 3 years?

[05:03:06] login or just bits and pieces over time, ready to reuse for future submissions?

[05:03:48] login is it ready now or do you want to add things?

[05:04:11] login they don't take web stuff in?

[05:04:26] login how will you make it an executable without going over 128kb?

[05:05:02] login what was the original challenge?

[05:05:11] login how is it being judged?

[05:05:38] login Kuro-chan is so cool

[05:06:09] login NiniGeo2: yeah, i thought the code would have to be hand-translated into C

[05:06:24] login glass jar with envelope?

[05:06:53] login If you ask your music professor if they can do what Kuro-chan has done, the answer is no

[05:07:04] login If you ask your CS teacher if they can do what Kuro-chan has done, the answer is no

[05:07:42] login it feels like zelda

[05:08:10] login Where are you publishing the executable?

[05:08:22] login gogs?

[05:08:41] login it's just a dat file isn't it?

[05:09:06] login decide on a fixed length for metadata

[05:09:24] login [length of resource][type of resource][resource data...]

[05:09:42] login and a table at the beginning to index into the rest of the file

[05:09:56] login [resource number][offset in file where resource starts]

[05:10:09] login oh, i see

[05:10:14] login how do you compress it?

[05:10:26] login just zip or by hand?

[05:11:02] login are you using 256 colours or rgb?

[05:11:04] login !bang

[05:11:07] login !reload

[05:11:09] login !bang

[05:11:12] login !bang

[05:11:13] login !bang

[05:11:39] login what do you do with the 16th bit?

[05:12:35] login 2^15 colours

[05:13:36] login you could use it to mean something else in colour

[05:48:22] login MatCat: I studied electrical engineering too lol

[05:50:13] login MatCat: games do take away one's life energy

[06:49:07] login \g: oh no

[06:49:43] login I guess they think the only way to incentivise you to dedicate your full time to the company in the absence of KPIs is through essentially a jail

[06:50:03] login !bang

[06:50:51] login How is the cost of real-estate near the office?

[06:51:48] login \g: it's better than getting outsourced to bangladesh

[08:00:21] login alright, so ComputerTech, are you dave?

[08:01:16] login I liked the japanese pronunciation of computertech

[09:20:38] login hello irish666

[09:20:46] login how's the day been going?

[11:55:39] login ComputerTech will find it for sure

[12:00:09] login meta

[12:03:10] login i don't want to open that youtube video

[12:03:21] login why watch interactions that make one sad?

[12:03:41] login real life is painful as it is (for most people)

[12:03:56] login maybe it's all fun and games for trust fund babies
