And it happened in other cities all over the country. All +. <_QZ> like a sewing needle or a seringe? 06:00pm Just a sewing needle, I think <_QZ> scary hey, I heard some guy went on a rampage in SLC today <_QZ> oh ya :) yer still here though <_QZ> he went to the library this morning and got in an argument with some he got wasted eh? <_QZ> he went home and came back later with a gun <_QZ> he was 70 years old!!!!! damn <_QZ> they said he was on medication for some physco problem but had forgoten to take it for like a week <_QZ> i dont know if he got shot but he was alive for questioning oh yeah, that AIDS thing was BS.. but now some psycho will prolly do it for real. it was at the mormon library? <_QZ> uhh dunno, it was called family something library hey do you know if Mormon missionaries are called "witnesses"? <_QZ> uhh, im not mormon <_QZ> just cuz i live in utah dont make me an expert on mormons that's what I figured I think there's a few at school anyways we had these missionaries coming around, one week they were Mormons, the next week they were Witnesses <_QZ> ask them if they like being mormon salesmen :) <_QZ> but when saying mormon slip and say moron and then quickly correct yerself Maybe they have a "missionary temp agency" or something now haha <_QZ> i do that all the time <_QZ> when they convert ppl the church gets 10% of yer income as tithing <_QZ> so they are salesmen to make money for the church 06:10pm <_QZ> then they build these stupid temples that only 'special' morons can go into. even tho u pay tithing u cant :) There used to be this old guy down the road who would take out his 12-gauge and make them say the pledge of allegiance to his flag <_QZ> make who? morons, I thought or jehovah's witnesses? whichever church doesn't believe in America :) <_QZ> so by saying 'there used to be' u mean that a moron didnt pledge his flag so they hauled his ass off afer a moron got shot? :) for all I know he still lives there. He was old though, prolly died. <_QZ> i like talking to missionaries <_QZ> they stopped visiting for some reason tho :) I guess you gotta give 'em the cold shoulder or they'll come back. <_QZ> no no no <_QZ> u gotta play with em haha <_QZ> ask em questions, TONS of questions <_QZ> hard shit that they gotta think about they have a habit of ringing the doorbell just as I'm about to leave <_QZ> god can do anything right? gakuk! <_QZ> he can create anything? <_QZ> he can lift any object? So what makes your church better than mine? <_QZ> so can he create a rock so heavy that he cant lift it? hey fare lo tcn! <_QZ> loopholes like that make the missionaries confused If killing is a sin and banging another guy is a sin, is it a sin to kill a fag? <_QZ> hahah <_QZ> morons are against fags that's the kinda shit we talk about in English class.. haha <_QZ> i will have to ask that to the missionaries and is killing time a crime? That's a question for the real wackos <_QZ> ok i just emailed a couple missionaries hey fare, you think I should use all null-terminated strings, no counted strings? <_QZ> well ex-missionaries heh why'd they quit? <_QZ> they are only a missionary for 2 years tcn: you should abstract yourself from string representation :) <_QZ> i cant remember what they are called after that <_QZ> some gay name tcn: if strings are to be GC'ed, then they should be heap-allocated. 06:20pm <_QZ> no they should be objects <_QZ> then the object manager can GC them sure. Heap allocated as any other object. they're heap allocated <_QZ> if they are objects u dont need to know what kinda string it is QZ: can you cease repeating me with different words? <_QZ> u can have both kinds and yer code doesnt need to know howto handle either <_QZ> :) -:- Fare has changed the topic on channel #Tunes to: Reflective Computing System My forth compiler *would* be working now, if everything used null-terminated. <_QZ> why doesnt everything use null termination? tcn: you can do like CMUCL have have strings *both* counted and null-terminated :) oh ok QZ: because the programmers are terminally nulls? <_QZ> Fare: do i need lisp to compile cmucl? QZ: you need _cmucl_ to compile cmucl wtf? <_QZ> ah crap <_QZ> so i was suppose to get the friggin binary? and if you're doing a deep change, you even need major hacking. <_QZ> that blows Get GCL :) indeed it does. <_QZ> which is better: cmucl or gcl? cmucl <_QZ> tcn :) ocaml and rscheme were easy to set up gcl is unmaintained for years, and was never very efficient haha cmucl once was faster than gcc on sparc. <_QZ> Fare: do u have pliant? and is actively maintained on x86. QZ: I do hey how come GNU stands for "GNU's Not Unix" when it IS unix? <_QZ> have u gotten it to work? <_QZ> tcn: unix is an att product tcn: how come EINE stands for EINE Is Not Emacs, when it IS emacs? tcn: Unix(tm) is a property of who knows anymore. <_QZ> doesnt at&t still own it? no more. <_QZ> really? They sold it to a group, then perhaps to SCO. <_QZ> since when <_QZ> hmm Novell once did hold the trademark (and the rights to the AT&T code) Microsoft prolly has it now what doesn't M$ have today? I looked up the M$ records on the SEC one time, and they were buying a company every week for a few billion $ did I tell you MS Research will be hiring me? <_QZ> heh, M$ placed a bid on the linux.com name :) <_QZ> Fare: yer kidding right? QZ: left. 06:30pm well, the day they gimme the opportunity to do free software of my choice, I sign up. <_QZ> free software or open source? <_QZ> ugh <_QZ> there is no glibc5 binary of cmucl <_QZ> er libc5 QZ: free software == open source, just in case you were in Mars last year. <_QZ> no free software means u dont pay for it no, that's freeware. <_QZ> no cuz u can charge for open source programs <_QZ> is redhat 6 out yet? who cares redhat makes linux look bad <_QZ> redhat is better than debian no its slower i ain't got no celeron-400 <_QZ> slower? both redhat and debian are good look at the /etc/rc files they are both all free software. debian puts also lotsa crap at startup. redhat starts a /bin/bash for every program started at startup 06:40pm -:- AlonzoTG [Alonzo@client-151-200-126-6.bellatlantic.net] has joined #tunes well *nix sucks anyway you slice it, that's why we're writing OS's <_QZ> yup debian starts up pretty quick as fast as win95 if a program uses 1 routine in a shared library, does Linux load the whole library into RAM? <_QZ> hmm why the hell does netscape redraw the contents of the page when u scroll? cuz they got a buncha retards working there <_QZ> if aprogram uses one function in a module does retro load the entire module into ram? as "fast" as win95! * Fare/#Tunes hacked his redhat to startup mucho faster <_QZ> win95 is slow <_QZ> my redhat starts up snappy fast <_QZ> so does win98, but NOT win95 Fare: I don't care if it gets into X with the fs readonly.. I don't like X * Fare/#Tunes spawns a login on tty12 as fast as possible * Fare/#Tunes mke2fs a partition for /tmp and similar things asap, too, so as to be able to run X. when I saw win98 it took several minutes to start, on a new machine <_QZ> win98 on my celeron463 starts up fast tcn: I don't like X, either. But it's the only usable way I know to view dvi and postscript files. yeah <_QZ> and that is even counting the bios shit plus, it gets me 4 simultaneous xterms instead of just one terminal at a time. how come academics always have to publish in PS or DVI though? <_QZ> te asus p2bd has a fast friggin bios tcn: what else do you propose? Word???? ascii, html.. they need something for formulas though, I know.. 06:50pm HTML w/ images for formulas is still smaller & faster than PS, though <_QZ> tcn: u didnt answer my question? _QZ: u didn't ask <_QZ> if aprogram uses one function in a module does retro load the entire module into ram? oh <_QZ> or u just ignoring that :) tcn: it's still bigger than gzipped PS right now it loads all the modules whether or not they're used :) <_QZ> what about later plus, traditionnally, academics need to publish _printed_ material Fare: does anyone read it? :) it will take a few years (and a usable free document format) to have them move from LaTeX tcn: other academics do. tcn: and you should read them, too, if you want to get insight on what you're doing. qz: A "module" will be a group of objects that are too small to justify loading them separately. But a "module" is a lot smaller than a typical library in *nix <_QZ> ok <_QZ> just had to make sure u werent against how brix does things :) gotta go sleep. Bye! 'night. <_QZ> cya tcn: don't forget to commit! -:- SignOff Fare: #TUNES (Back to the Tunes OS project -- /whowas Fare) haha I didn't do anything <_QZ> heh <_QZ> commit it damnit :) So does Linux load the whole damn library? <_QZ> yes that's what I thought oh yeah, I finally figured out why Linux was slower than FBSD.. it was on a slower hard drive 07:00pm haha <_QZ> are yer modules just collections of random functions or must all the functions be object methods? <_QZ> heh they shouldn't have to be part of the same object we'll see <_QZ> what <_QZ> when i call a method inside a module i have to give it an object to work on with the call <_QZ> if i call method 'a' of an object the kernel will know that method 'a' is inside the module belonging to that object type I'm shying away from classes <_QZ> why it seems like an unnecessary layer of complexity. Besides, you ever looked at old math texts from the early 1900's? Classes are a bit dated :) <_QZ> test of time I'm not the first to not use classes.. I found out it's called a "prototype" object system <_QZ> huh what good are classes? <_QZ> they define an object why can't an object define itself? <_QZ> say u have a null terminate string class and a set of methods for it <_QZ> and u also have a counted string class <_QZ> since the methods for each class are gonna be the same, just different code, yer app can use either type of string 07:10pm <_QZ> i could pass yer app either type of string and it could handle it What if all my "counted string" objects are cloned from a prototype "counted string" object the "methods" are objects themselves, and all the different "counted string" objects share the same methods -:- SignOff _QZ: #TUNES (Ping timeout for _QZ[p0wer.qzx.com]) -:- _QZ [brand@p0wer.qzx.com] has joined #tunes -:- mode/#Tunes [+v _QZ] by Tril <_QZ> piss What if all my "counted string" objects are cloned from a prototype "counted string" object the "methods" are objects themselves, and all the different "counted string" objects share the same methods <_QZ> ya <_QZ> did u have a problem with that? didn't try it yet <_QZ> i have subclassing in brix but u can add methods to modules I thought about how it could waste space, when you have a bunch of objects.. so I could just have a flag saying "this object is a clone of xxx" <_QZ> er i dont have 07:20pm <_QZ> huh? To save space <_QZ> u mean a link? well yeah, a flag and a link <_QZ> u dont need links in an object system <_QZ> anything that wants to use that object just references it same thing <_QZ> cloning is to make another object that u want to change I thought a clone was an exact copy not a changed coyp <_QZ> u can have the system clone all objects before making changes to them and save each clone in a list, undo list <_QZ> version control <_QZ> well it is an exact when u clone it <_QZ> exact copy <_QZ> then u change it :) <_QZ> if i take a baseball bat to the face of a cloned human will the orignal human also have a smashed in face? no but everything else about them will be the same :) <_QZ> what if i cut off the clones dick? <_QZ> add breast implants <_QZ> :) call it Marilyn Manson <_QZ> hahah <_QZ> u see a clone can change so when it's changed so much it's unrecognisable, just drop the "clone" flag anyway, that's my inheritance mechanism.. for now :) <_QZ> inheritance? <_QZ> how is that inheritance whatever turns out to be simplest to implement & use, that's what tunes should use.. classes, prototypes, whatever. <_QZ> inheritance is where u subclass the object type and add new shit to the structure and new methods that only work on that type and it inherits some methods from the parent class yup anyway, I never got into C++, so the class/method system doesn't seem so natural to me <_QZ> brix is unable to handle inheritance 07:30pm <_QZ> ofcourse u can embed an object inside another object <_QZ> so that can be kinda like inheritance <_QZ> i could have my null-term string class and then create a new class that has a number and a null-term string object and call it a counted class :) <_QZ> counted string class <_QZ> its methods could call the null-term methods <_QZ> kewl, redhat comes with a bumper sticker :) what's timestamp? <_QZ> in what /who #tunes <_QZ> its a time <_QZ> and? <_QZ> oh the person/bot timestamp? it never does anything? hmm.. wierd traceroute no domain name 07:40pm <_QZ> uhh timestamp must be some opn thing <_QZ> /whois timestamp <_QZ> it has hyphens before the # sign for each channel what's that mean? <_QZ> dunno <_QZ> it has also has a 'd' in my /who list it has -+ before #tunes only <_QZ> it has voice in tunes that is why it has a + oh try an nslookup on its address <_QZ> + is the normal symbol for voice, yer client is just screwed up <_QZ> === NAMES #Tunes : 7 users <_QZ> +_QZ AlonzoTG +tcn +TUNES +timestamp <_QZ> @Tril +abi i just never heard of voice before. never used IRC much -:- Iepos [root@d8.t1-9.tecinfo.com] has joined #TUNES -:- mode/#Tunes [+v Iepos] by Tril <_QZ> hello IE gakuk! <_QZ> [brand@p0wer ~]>> nslookup 207.16.36.12 <_QZ> Server: fluffy.aros.net <_QZ> Address: 207.173.16.2 <_QZ> *** fluffy.aros.net can't find 207.16.36.12: Non-existent host/domain ok that's what I got <_QZ> lots of ips dont have dns <_QZ> have u seen 'slc punk' the movie? nope.. heard about it.. <_QZ> im in it you the punk? <_QZ> no <_QZ> it was filmed here and i was across the street heh this guy here was in Liebestraum, riding a skateboard :) <_QZ> have u seen touched by an angel? that's when I turn off the TV <_QZ> its also filmed here and they made a couple episodes in my neighborhood <_QZ> u cna see my house actually I almost never watch TV <_QZ> i was star trek <_QZ> s/was/watch/ <_QZ> damn ds9 is ending in 2 months -:- SignOff Iepos: #TUNES (Iepos) <_QZ> ofcourse voyager got better when they got seven <_QZ> u a trekky? 07:50pm nope <_QZ> bummer used to watch TNG sometimes <_QZ> seven is a borg with big breasts :) and the first 5 or 6 movies haha abi's ma <_QZ> the one thing about star trek that sucks is its 7 year limit 207.16.36.12:21 * Linux 1.3.xx, 2.0.0 to 2.0.34 <_QZ> they always start out the new series with gay shit then to boost ratings they start making kewl shit, then they end the show when voyager was starting the FX were worse than the original <_QZ> uhh <_QZ> i dont think so they were like Seaquest.. haha <_QZ> when tng started the uniforms sucks <_QZ> sucked do you have a trekkie uniform? <_QZ> no you're ok :) <_QZ> everyone looked so skrawny in the uniforms <_QZ> it was as bad as the cheap fx and props of TOS TOS? <_QZ> the old star trek <_QZ> tos, tng, ds9, voy What was the movie where they had the klingon's ship?
