[09:20:38] <janrinok> I was just looking at his comments and found nothing - but I hadn't checked his mods...

[10:16:35] <janrinok> what do you want us to do with that?
[10:17:46] <janrinok> it's a year old, it is - as you have pointed out - a shitpost, and it doesn't actually say very much. Other than that is is ideal for the weekend ;)
[10:29:56] <chromas> It's just for keks. Thought maybe tmb would get a kick out of it
[10:30:49] <chromas> Also, whoever decided the margins on reddit should be hyperlinked deserves to be shot
[10:32:28] <chromas> Actually, I saw a journal entry on sn about configuring pop!_@#OS using systemd-boot and found that while looking for info on their setup
[10:38:36] <chromas> One real drawback to system though is the 185 extra mounts

[18:12:48] <AndyTheAbsurd> FatPhil keeps time using Julian Day notation.
[18:13:23] <AndyTheAbsurd> https://en.wikipedia.org if you're unfamiliar (and if you're unfamiliar, you're in for a wild ride!)
[18:13:25] <ClownHatLinux> ^ 03Julian day - Wikipedia
[18:15:38] -!- rupertpupnick [rupertpupnick!~266f3f82@38.111.is.wqr] has joined #soylent
[18:15:50] <AndyTheAbsurd> I used to work on HP (previous Compaq, previously Tandem) NonStop kernel systems, where the timestamp is kept as a 64-bit number of microseconds (yes, MICRO, not milliseconds) starting from the same point as the Julian Day system.
[18:16:14] <RandomFactor> I get Julian dates (and fries). Still think i'm gonna do some calcs and try leveraging them this weekend. What could possibly go wrong.... For now i'll go pretend to be productive for a few more hours.
[18:17:04] <RandomFactor> i bet you loved the occassional NTP Offset change...
[18:18:00] <rupertpupnick> hi. why such a high time resolution?
[18:18:37] <AndyTheAbsurd> heh... even with the microsecond precision, we still had one instance of a duplicate timestamp on two separate transaction records while I was there.
[18:19:36] <AndyTheAbsurd> rupertpupnick: that's just what the OS provided, I'm not sure what the original logic for it was.
[18:24:52] <rupertpupnick> was that at Tandem, or later? Not familiar with kernel systems...
[18:34:15] <chromas> The modern way to track time is to give each nanosecond its own ipv6 address and run a micro (heh) -service at each address whose time something happened at
[18:39:19] <chopchop1> reinvent time from first principles
[18:40:57] <rupertpupnick> you can never give softies enough hardware resources...
[18:50:04] <AndyTheAbsurd> rupertpupnick: when I got started on those systems, it was Compaq that was making them; they got acquired by HP shortly after. I was just QA at a place that *used* them, not working for Tandem/Compaq/HP themselves.
