[08:38:20] <FatPhil> Woowoo! Our brewpub will probably re-open this weekend! Can you bastards overseas start making orders again, we'd kinda like our market back.
[08:39:04] <chromas> Nope. Stay Home, Save Lives™. Let the market die.
[08:42:20] <FatPhil> But beer's safe - it's safer than water as it's been boiled!
[08:42:35] <FatPhil> (^^^ historical fact)
[08:52:52] <FatPhil> boru: does germany still have a Walpurgis tradition? I'm just wondering what Finnish Vappu will be like. It used to be one of the biggest orgiastic festival in the western world (in the early 90s, at least, youngsters don't binge quite as much nowadays).
[08:56:07] <boru> Not sure, actually. We celebrate Bealtaine, which Walpurgis seems to demonify, unsurprisingly.
[08:56:59] <boru> Walpurgis seems to be a predominatly Northern thing anyway. Not sure if there's anything with similar history down here in Bavaria.
[08:58:21] <FatPhil> I think it's all just become merged into just may day, and then some kind of "workers' day".
[08:58:47] <boru> Not really, no.
[08:59:00] <boru> Bealtaine is still celebrated widely in Ireland.
[08:59:17] <boru> Moreso in the countryside, naturally.
[09:00:15] <FatPhil> https://en.wikipedia.org says that's a modern feast, which seems weird
[09:00:16] <systemd> ^ 03Public holidays in the Republic of Ireland - Wikipedia
[09:01:35] -!- carny has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[09:03:08] <boru> That's the public holiday, not the festival. Bealtaine is probably 7-8 millenia old, in one form or another.
[09:04:10] <boru> The modern day festival is the product of centuries of erosion of our heritage by Abrahamic religions.
[09:04:17] -!- carny [carny!~irc@ib32.ip-65-05-789.eu] has joined #soylent
[09:05:21] <boru> Bealtaine goes back to the proto-celts and indigenous peoples of Ireland and Britain.
[09:08:26] <FatPhil> I wonder if the Bael- is etymologically related to the Bel- in Belarus. I'm the wagering type, and I reckon that's a goer.
[09:09:01] <boru> Yeah, Bealtaine essentially translates to "fires of Bel"
[09:09:15] <boru> Bel, as in the god.
[09:09:47] <FatPhil> Ah, it's white/light word in lots of the indo-european tree
[09:09:50] <boru> But that's a Celtic god; there practice of celebrating the midpoint between soltice and equinox predates that, in Ireland at least.
[09:10:02] <boru> Predates the Celts, that is.
[09:10:30] <boru> In modern Gaeilge, "tine" is "fire".
[09:11:35] <boru> Bealtaine tradition is big bonfires lit on all of the hills on the eve. A practice which still exists in some parts of Ireland today.
[09:13:06] <FatPhil> that's more a midsummer thing in the more viking-influenced lands. (which is a bit silly, I know)
[09:13:24] <boru> It's a thing for most Germanic peoples.
[09:13:35] <boru> Bonfires on festivals, that is.
[09:14:10] <FatPhil> they've been culturally significant since as long as we've had culture!
[09:14:20] <boru> The 4 major Irish festivals feature it. In some cases, two fires, between which farm animals are lead, or in other cases, that people jump over together.
[09:14:27] <boru> Indeed they have.
[09:15:49] <FatPhil> although if you scrape through the evidence, it seems our ancestral apes invented them before humans were even a thing
[09:17:30] <FatPhil> bloody *birds* know to set fires by carrying burning tinder from a fire to scare wildlife out of wooded areas in Australia.
[09:17:35] <boru> Well, there is evidence in Ireland that the original settlers who crossed the ice sheet in ~9000-8000 BC had an understanding of astronomy e.g. precession. Many ceremonial sites and tombs from the subsequent era show that they were built to mark solstices and equinoxes.
[09:17:51] <boru> Millenia before those silly Egyptians.
[09:36:09] <FatPhil> ah, Bel seems to be Baal in semitic tongues
[09:41:53] <boru> Quite possible; there is probably some overlap with deities in Mesopotamia.
[09:42:54] <boru> That's where much comes from; the progenitor for Abrahamic religions also. Monotheism has its roots in Zorastrianism.
[09:43:26] <boru> Judaism for example, is likely an offshoot of an older religion which originated in what is now Iran.
[09:43:50] <boru> Which itself then produced Christianity and Islam.

[18:04:08] <Teckla> So I personally use find+grep for my searching. A co-worker wants a Windows GUI tool that does the same. The command line scares him. Does anyone have any recommendations? Bonus points if it can be plugged into Notepad++. Anyone? :)
[18:05:11] <pinchy> command lines are scary af
[18:06:36] <pinchy> notepad++ should do that out of the box
[18:06:37] <Bender> karma - notepad: 2
[18:06:37] <janrinok> Teckla, have you tried beating him each day?
[18:08:11] <Teckla> He uses NPP and uses that feature of NPP now, but apparently it runs painfully slow, and tends to lock up the GUI while running -- according to him.
[18:08:22] <Teckla> I ran find/grep within WSL/Linux in a fraction of the time. :)
[18:08:33] <Teckla> janrinok: LOL!
[18:11:09] <Bytram> Teckla: I use grep and find all the time -- on the command line -- couldn't imagine doing it any other way. Why add the overhead of supporting a whole GUI when a cmd pipeline is so much more performant? Yeah, I'm not an average user, so I don't have any alternative suggestions, sorry!
[18:12:22] <Teckla> Bytram++
[18:12:22] <Bender> karma - bytram: 135
[18:12:29] <Bytram> What is he trying to do, anyway?
[18:12:44] <Teckla> Yeah, I prefer the command line, vim, etc. The icing on the cake is that it scares my co-workers :D
[18:12:46] <Bytram> searching in a single file? multiple files?
[18:13:00] <Bytram> Teckla++ scare
[18:13:00] <Bender> karma - teckla: 4
[18:13:05] <Teckla> Bytram: NPP can already do it, it's just slow, and locks up the GUI while it's doing it. Yeah, just regex searches across files.
[18:13:32] <Bytram> ok, multiple files.
[18:13:44] <Teckla> I've always *hated* it *passionately* when co-workers touch my keyboard. The command line and vim keep them away!
[18:14:18] <Teckla> Co-worker: "Here, let me show you where..." Me: "Oh, this is vim -- do you know how to use vim?" Co-worker: *cringes in horror* "No." Me: "Okay, well, just tell me where to navigate..."
[18:14:19] <Bytram> so it would be fas if it didn't have the gui in the way. So he wants a gui that takes no computes to do its thing? That would be... niiiice.
[18:14:26] <Teckla> And voila! One less co-worker touching my keyboard! \o/
[18:14:34] <Bytram> yays
[18:15:01] <Bytram> I'll forgive the vim, but emacs tends to solicit an equivalent response.
[18:15:48] <pinchy> get that dude some windows file manager tool with search like double commander etc
[18:16:10] <Teckla> I'm old enough and have worked on enough Unix systems that vi was always there, emacs wasn't. So, I ended up learning vi... just because it was always available. Never tried to learn emacs, but I hear it's nice.
[18:16:23] -!- Fnord666_ has quit []
[18:16:56] * Teckla consulted for a good long while and even getting something like emacs installed back in the day could be pretty challenging (sys admins didn't want to install it).
[18:17:14] <Teckla> And I'm also old enough to remember emacs being ***slow*** (on the hardware at the time).
[18:17:22] * Teckla <- ancient, senile, fossilized
[18:18:14] <Bytram> when I was introduced to visual editors WAY back when, I tried vi, but weren't any *truly* knowledgeable folk where I worked. Emacs, OTOH, after I followed the tutorial and printed out the "wallpaper" cheat sheet, I found to be amazingly orthogonal. "F" was for moving forward, Using Ctrl or Alt with it increased the amount (character word, line, etc). "B" was for backwards. Same keys had same modifying effect. NICE!
[18:18:31] <Bytram> I had a good go of it with TECO
[18:19:29] <Bytram> actually wrote some TECO programs that consumed a whole library of programs and generated a cross reference of what programs defined/used what subroutines.
[18:20:04] <Bytram> Is all I had, and what they had was nothing at all, so it ended up being the best tool available at the time.
[18:20:21] <Bytram> Oh, and the whole computer had 64K of memory.
[18:21:04] <Bytram> and was multi-user
[18:21:16] <Bytram> and the size of a couple refrigerators
[18:21:24] <Teckla> 64k! Luxury! ;)
[18:22:09] <Bytram> well, granted that something like 24K of that was taken up by the OS
[18:22:42] <janrinok> gtg - laters everyone!
[18:23:12] <Teckla> Bytram: What OS was that?
[18:23:15] <Teckla> Oh, TECO?
[18:23:22] <Bytram> janrinok: have a great day; hugs and kisses to S!
[18:23:24] <Bytram> yep
[18:23:39] <Teckla> Neat.
[18:23:46] <Teckla> Bye janrinok!
[18:23:49] <Bytram> back in the day, one could not do: teco foo unless foo already existed as a file.
[18:24:06] <Bytram> To create the file, one had to issue the command: make foo
[18:24:19] <Bytram> *then* you can do: teco foo
[18:24:42] <Bytram> want to take a guess at what happens when you tried to create a file called "love" ??
[18:27:10] * Teckla raises an eyebrow :)
[18:29:01] <Bytram> make love
[18:29:04] <Bytram> not war?
[18:29:14] <Bytram> and then it would proceed as normal. =)
[18:30:05] <Bytram> IIRC, we are talking about mid to late 1980s

[19:51:57] <exec> <chromas> <nutherguy> What would be wrong with a XXXmPP server?
[19:52:48] <chromas> The only thing wrong with single-X mpp is every little thing has its own extension and not everyone supports them all

[19:53:11] <chromas> Although I've read Pidgin is the Internet Explorer of instant messaging

[19:56:22] <nutherguy> they can't copyright annotations either
[19:57:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> they'll contract it out so the copyright belongs to the author but gets assigned to them
[19:58:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's that time again
