[00:39:32] <SpallsHurgenson> okay, why was I not informed that the Cobra C.L.A.W. is now available in real life? http://videosift.com
[00:39:33] <Manbearpig> ^ 03Jet Packs over Dubai
[00:39:47] <takyon> what's the flight time
[00:40:05] <takyon> maximum
[00:40:19] <SpallsHurgenson> dunno, doubt its more than a few minutes
[00:41:56] <SpallsHurgenson> apparently they use turbines from model jet-planes
[00:42:18] <SpallsHurgenson> ah... flight time is 6 to 13 minutes.
[00:43:14] <SpallsHurgenson> weighs 55K, 22KG thrust (dunno if that is total or per engine), ascent speed is up to 180kph
[00:47:36] <SpallsHurgenson> this will advance my whole plan for global domination
[00:48:27] <takyon> you'd need an emdrive and nanotech supercapacitors to make yourself the rocketeer
[00:48:58] <arti> "i need to over produce this, what've you got?"
[00:49:15] <arti> "let's work in some stuff about how we're powered by the same energy"
[00:50:00] <SpallsHurgenson> screw that, I need to think up cool new costume designs for my new Sky Commando legion!
[00:50:35] <SpallsHurgenson> because if I'm gonna take over the world, I'm gonna do it with STYLE
[00:51:04] <takyon> what you need is airships
[00:52:31] <SpallsHurgenson> I'm working on that. Right now I'm thinking of trebuchet-launched battleships.
[00:52:40] <arti> why airships
[00:53:08] <SpallsHurgenson> there are, however, several potential problems with my plan at the moment but I'm sure it'll all work out eventually :)
[00:53:20] <arti> with enough time and money...
[00:53:25] <takyon> you gotta have that steampunk aesthetic
[00:53:31] <takyon> plus nazis
[00:53:51] <SpallsHurgenson> oh no, I'm not working with nazis again
[00:54:00] <arti> yeah, they get on you about spelling
[00:54:34] <SpallsHurgenson> last time one of 'em almost poked my eye out with that silly salute of theirs
[00:54:46] <SpallsHurgenson> and EVERY conversation ends up godwinned
[00:55:34] <takyon> it's good to get the godwin done within 1 post
[00:57:41] <arti> you mean the same salute the US used for the flag?
[01:02:55] <SpallsHurgenson> helpful hint: when placing hand on heart during national anthem, they mean your own heart and not that of the pretty girl sitting next to you
[01:03:41] <chromas> Place your hand over your tart
[01:04:43] <takyon> i don't find that hint helpful
[01:05:08] <chromas> ~define tart
[01:05:10] <exec> [urbandictionary] 03tart: A nubile young temptress, who dresses teasingly and provocatively.
[01:05:35] <takyon> I meant Spalls
[01:05:37] <SpallsHurgenson> also, a tasty fruity cakey thing :)
[01:08:20] <SpallsHurgenson> now I'm hungry for cake

[02:33:08] <arti> pick nights for stuff, i'm sure we can get enough interest
[02:33:10] <SpallsHurgenson> (and don't get me started on how Armor Class is supposed to go DOWN as it gets better :)
[02:33:17] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: to paraphrase: [22:32] <+arti> we should do a dnd night
[02:33:31] <arti> does this beam up to the aether?
[02:34:12] <mrcoolbp> arti: that's seriously a fun idea, and with NC's twitch for streaming (wink) lately, I'd say that's a done deal
[02:34:28] <mrcoolbp> arti: what eather are we discussing?
[02:34:51] <takyon> how many people watch those streams
[02:34:52] <ciri> very carefully and then some

[02:38:58] * arti shoudl resume work on his rpg stuff
[02:39:24] <SpallsHurgenson> I have two on-again/off-again D&D campaigns running IRL
[02:39:25] <arti> npc generation, all the spells and stuff suck
[02:39:40] <mrcoolbp> arti: is there a way to play DnD over the 'net?
[02:39:42] <SpallsHurgenson> one has been more or less continuous since the early '90s
[02:39:54] <mrcoolbp> arti: this can't be the first instance of some nerds trying to do so
[02:40:14] <mrcoolbp> we could go old-skool of course but there might be a "tool" out there
[02:40:33] <arti> irc, just typing.
[02:40:37] <SpallsHurgenson> rolld20 has a free web-based virtual tabletop
[02:40:39] <mrcoolbp> works for me
[02:40:45] * mrcoolbp looks
[02:40:47] <arti> helps to have stuff setup, prefabbed as far as campaign stuff
[02:41:09] <arti> as an aside, there is a tabletop simulator but i haven't really messed with it. there are also specialized services for hosting gameplay
[02:41:24] <SpallsHurgenson> I briefly did D&D on IRC in the late 90s... we had some sort of whiteboard add-on which helped :)
[02:42:30] <arti> so i looked into doing tilesets and stuff via html/css and got into hexagons and it was kinda painful to do them in purecss
[02:42:47] <mrcoolbp> I would yield to your experience here guys
[02:43:04] * mrcoolbp continously pings NCommander in hopes he'll show up
[02:43:14] <arti> ultimately that lead to html5 game sdks
[02:43:20] <SpallsHurgenson> I always fudged stuff when it came to distances... so hexes or grids were sort of inconsequential :)
[02:43:29] * arti likes squad combat stuff
[02:43:48] <mrcoolbp> https://wiki.roll20.net
[02:43:48] <Manbearpig> ^ 03Main Page - Roll20 Wiki
[02:44:16] <mrcoolbp> arti: it was your idea, you should submit a story to SN : p
[02:44:20] <SpallsHurgenson> my main group was more into the role-playing aspects than the game-aspect of RPGs :)
[02:44:54] <mrcoolbp> might generate too much buzz, what's the max players for a viable game? 10??
[02:45:04] <mrcoolbp> 15?
[02:45:28] <SpallsHurgenson> biggest group I ever did was 8 but I prefer 4
[02:45:30] <Landon> roll20 is a wichita product I think!
[02:45:34] <Landon> claim2fame
[02:45:34] <mrcoolbp> yeah 4 sounds good
[02:45:52] * mrcoolbp nominates Landon as the DM
[02:45:58] <Landon> hah noooo
[02:46:01] <mrcoolbp> = )
[02:46:03] <Landon> I haven't got the time to brush up on rules
[02:46:07] <mrcoolbp> aye
[02:46:09] <SpallsHurgenson> I thought we get martyb do all that stuff :)
[02:46:17] <Landon> I really like roll20 from what I did do with it (set up pathfinder starter adventure so I could never play it with friends)
[02:46:21] <SpallsHurgenson> erm, bytram
[02:46:32] <mrcoolbp> Bytram: want to play D&D ?
[02:46:36] <mrcoolbp> ; P
[02:47:06] <SpallsHurgenson> remember, if there is an unpleasant task or something requiring an inordinate amount of work... bytram is your man!
[02:47:24] <mrcoolbp> that reminds me, I have to pester the CPA tomorrow

[02:48:28] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: nice.
[02:48:30] * SpallsHurgenson suddenly has a pog flashback
[02:48:36] * NCommander looks at the lightbulb over arti's idea
[02:48:36] <arti> !slammer
[02:48:39] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: how about a SN DnD game?
[02:48:48] <mrcoolbp> NCommander:

[02:53:14] <NCommander> I couldn't think it could be that bad. I was wrong.
[02:53:14] <Landon> I rolled a character for kicks, it was ridiculous
[02:53:29] <Landon> I can't imagine trying to get even a mini adventure done
[02:53:37] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: so I'll just assume you'll organize the whole thing and I can sit on the sidelines?
[02:53:41] <Landon> just going to be owned by the next goblin with a large dong
[02:53:44] * mrcoolbp attempts to slink away slowly

[03:02:28] <Landon> meant playing 99c worth of penny slots :) fun times
[03:02:40] <Landon> 1) cheaper than the arcades on the strip 2) just about as much fun as the arcades
[03:02:55] <mrcoolbp> the strip is fun
[03:03:16] <Landon> and cheap, I never realized it before
[03:03:17] <mrcoolbp> My wife and I grabbed a backback full of beers and just cracked them open everywhere as we walked around
[03:03:21] * NCommander has shitty memories of Las Vegas
[03:03:25] <mrcoolbp> yeah we spent very little there
[03:03:30] <NCommander> I'm debating driving to Panama
[03:03:31] <Landon> $20 rooms at the stratosphere
[03:03:32] <mrcoolbp> seriously very little
[03:03:37] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: can I come?
[03:03:38] <arti> nice
[03:03:41] <Landon> vs $80 room in some chain hotel near zion park
[03:03:43] <NCommander> Maybe do some coding there, have a reunion for SoylentNews's birthplace
[03:03:57] <mrcoolbp> Landon: north of $200 for most rooms
[03:04:00] <mrcoolbp> on strip
[03:04:15] <Landon> mrcoolbp: hm, this was july 4 weekend
[03:04:21] <Landon> we stayed at the luxor for ~$60 too
[03:04:23] <mrcoolbp> NCommander: my spanish is exceedingly bueno
[03:04:29] <Landon> in the pyramid bit
[03:04:30] <mrcoolbp> I would make a good companion
[03:04:45] <mrcoolbp> Landon: +1 Interesting
[03:04:49] <Landon> I wouldn't say they were exceptional rooms :) but comparable to a la quinta
[03:04:56] <NCommander> mrcoolbp, get antimarials, a passport, and a steel plated car seat and you're in
[03:05:13] <mrcoolbp> shit yeah I need a passport
[03:05:13] <ciri> i don't see any shit
[03:05:22] <mrcoolbp> oh, ciri, you just wait
[03:05:37] <Landon> mrcoolbp: wear an easily identifiable shirt for the photo
[03:05:43] <mrcoolbp> why?'
[03:05:43] <Landon> then wear that every time you cross the border
[03:05:45] <mrcoolbp> lol
[03:05:46] <ciri> HEHEHEHE
[03:06:06] <mrcoolbp> will be a FSCK Border Patrol shirt

[12:59:03] <janrinok> hi guys
[12:59:11] <CoolHand> janrinok !!!
[12:59:14] <SirFinkus> morning
[12:59:20] <janrinok> CoolHand: hi, how's things?
[12:59:27] <janrinok> afternoon SirFinkus
[12:59:36] <CoolHand> things are fine... u?
[12:59:37] <janrinok> SirFinkus: how's your wang?
[12:59:43] <SirFinkus> pretty good
[12:59:57] <janrinok> CoolHand: not bad, busy day so far but hoping it will calm down a bit now
[13:00:14] <CoolHand> hopefully :)
[13:00:35] <janrinok> yep :) still living on a rasppi2 and it is doing well
[13:00:44] <CoolHand> awesome
[13:01:30] <CoolHand> I read an article yesterday on using a rasppi for Lakka, a linux retro gaming distro http://www.lakka.tv
[13:01:32] <Manbearpig> ^ 03Lakka - The DIY retro emulation console
[13:01:40] <CoolHand> I'm pretty tempted to play with that..
[13:01:56] <CoolHand> it said it was still flaky on the 2 though
[13:02:28] <janrinok> well it uses a different CPU so code will need tweaking. But stuff built for the Pi 2 works very well
[13:03:13] <janrinok> I've used python and bash, and later will be trying C/C++
[13:03:42] <CoolHand> cool..
[13:04:17] <janrinok> I'm running UbuntuMate and I cannot tell it apart from my usual desktop except that the mouse is just a fraction slower, but without the direct comparison I wouldn't have noticed.
[13:04:35] <janrinok> Oh, yes, and the Pi 2 is silent!
[13:04:48] <CoolHand> haha! yeah!
[13:06:27] <janrinok> I've temporarily mounted the Pi2 on the back of the screen so it is out of the way, and the wireless kb and mouse work fine.
[13:07:55] <CoolHand> that's pretty cool.. that's cheaper than that refurb linux pc company that was getting press recently (cant recall their name offhand)
[13:08:06] <janrinok> One very minor downside is that there is no free flashplayer - the licence costs about $2 or $3 for a one off purchase.
[13:08:16] <CoolHand> stupid flash
[13:08:57] <janrinok> yes, but it is still common on the internet for embedded vids, but vlc works fine for downloaded vids.
[13:11:22] <janrinok> I'm trying to put together a system that can be used by somebody in (a hospital-type) bed, and who has limited manual dexterity. So far, by mounting it on the back of the screen, I can simply move the screen to a bed-table and provide a wireless kb (large keys) and wireless mouse. Very early days but certainly do-able
[13:12:57] <CoolHand> yeah, sounds great..
[13:14:08] <janrinok> CoolHand: I see that you and the guys have been busy on the story queues - doing a great job
[13:21:25] <CoolHand> yep.. had a lot of help the last couple days.. it's been nice.. :)

[23:40:44] <scWarcques> Gott I hate ubuntu
[23:41:11] <scWarcques> Going to try this again tomorrow just to confirm ubantu's retardedness...
[23:41:24] <scWarcques> 1) install ubuntu LTS virtual machine
[23:41:41] <scWarcques> 2) set up shared folder with virtualbox extension
[23:42:11] <scWarcques> 3) try to add user1 to group vboxsf in order to get seamless access to shared folder mount point
[23:42:14] <scWarcques> (fail)
[23:42:34] <scWarcques> 4) adduser newuser2 --ingroup vboxsf
[23:42:52] <scWarcques> at that point neither user1 nor newuser2 is in sudoers file
[23:43:02] <scWarcques> no root account
[23:43:21] <scWarcques> wtf, can't do any more interesting shit
[23:43:28] <chromas> You can still get root
[23:43:34] <scWarcques> how?
[23:43:38] <chromas> sudo su
[23:43:44] <chromas> or sudo bash
[23:43:54] <scWarcques> nope, need to be in sudoers file for that sudo as well
[23:43:57] <chromas> then you can set a password for root and such
[23:44:11] <chromas> in your default account
[23:44:21] * chromas doesn't use ubuntu so dunno
[23:45:06] <scWarcques> Can't get a certain proprietary driver working on my debian, hence the virtualmachine
[23:45:09] <scWarcques> blech
[23:45:49] <chromas> wouldn't the driver work even less in a vm?
[23:46:33] <scWarcques> it's for a USB circuit flash/programmer which I've gotten to pass thru to a windoze VM just fine

[23:48:00] <scWarcques> maybe i'll keep F'ing with the udev rules file for this binary blob; they seem to be tailored to ubuntu but I don't know udev rules very well
