<lilo> Hi all. One of our older main rotation servers is throwing fits, it's being retired for now pending possible diagnosis and problem resolution.

[ServerNotice] Hi all. The server you are on, carter.openprojects.net, is experiencing reliability issues, and is being retired from the main rotation. You may want to disconnect and reconnect to irc.openprojects.net. Thanks.

hey.
13:03:47 [Morbus]
i don't think i'm gonna get an alpha by friday ;)
13:03:52 [pixel]
hehe
13:03:57 [pixel]
why not?
13:04:15 [Morbus]
welp, i was hoping to finish the add_a_channel changeover yesterday, but didn't.
13:04:28 [Morbus]
so that means, I've gotta finish it up tonight, AND move all the CHannels.pm stuff over.
13:04:34 [Morbus]
and Channels.pm is the biggest part of the code.
13:05:06 [pixel]
I might be able to get to the add_a_channel changeover today. that would catch you up.
13:06:44 [Morbus]
ah, mmkay.
13:06:49 [Morbus]
that'd be nice. i was gonna do that tonight as well.

tansaku_xf (~sam@n144-001.tokyu-net.catv.ne.jp) has joined #swhack
13:07:12 [Morbus]
once that starts working, it'd be just a matter of testing the Add A Channel page and making sure that it returns you to the letter you came from.
13:07:19 [Morbus]
which, should, should, should, work without issue.
13:09:22 [pixel]
hehhe
13:11:14 [Morbus]
famous last words ;)
13:11:30 [Morbus]
the sad thing is, I know an even better way to handle templates which will make it more flexible in the future.
13:11:36 [Morbus]
but that'll have to be for the beta, not the alpha. sigh.
13:11:59 [Morbus]
i just want to get something out. i want to get something on the CVS
13:12:27 [Morbus]
once the alpha goes out, we'll fiddle for a few weeks for the beta, it'll go on the CVS, and then be released.
13:12:29 [Morbus]
that's the goal, at least.
13:13:29 [Morbus]
on a side note: once the add_unknown_channel code is fixed up, people will be able to do a "import my channels into your ampheta" link.
13:13:52 [Morbus]
the idea is that they'd just construct a gigantor URL to add_unknown, with comma spliced URLs they've subscribed to.
13:14:00 [Morbus]
click on it, and Ampheta will "import" them all.
13:14:08 [pixel]
cool.

I've started using MS project to keep track of my projects.
14:04:38 [pixel]
I'm booked up until October so far.
14:05:16 [pixel]
and there's not one thing in the list of things to do that's remotely interesting.
14:05:26 [Morbus]
heh! i use omnioutliner for all my todo/prohect needs now.

[10:05] <Morbus> hence, my campaign for cloning.
14:05:45 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> but theres a negative aspect.
14:05:45 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> like, if I cloned myself, that'd be great.
14:05:45 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> cos then my clone could read all these books and disemminate it down to a few paragraphs of injokes.
14:05:45 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Rias> DrBacchus: just campaign for more vacation time
14:05:47 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> but, I'd get jealous of my clone cos he did something I haven't done.
14:05:49 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> so I'd probably murder him.
14:05:51 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> and then there'd be a court
14:05:53 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> case.
14:05:56 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> and there'd be some precedent for killing yourself.
14:05:57 [Morbus]
[10:05] <Morbus> it'd be interesting.

how does MS Project work for you? pretty decently?
14:06:23 [Morbus]
i've been looking for something that I can say "hey! i've got 10 minutes left today. give me somethign to do"
14:06:32 [pixel]
I think what I need is to quit wasting time at the work thing. it uses up 8 hours of my day.
14:06:45 [Morbus]
i hear ya
14:07:01 [quasi]
Morbus: it is useful for figuring out that you've missed at deadline, but that's it
14:07:07 [pixel]
MS project is OK. they use it here for keeping track of projects overall, so I thought I'd try it. it sucks just as much as everything I've used.
14:07:24 [Morbus]
ah. well, those are rather inspiring comments, i'll rush out to get it ;)
14:07:30 [pixel]
heheh
14:07:52 [pixel]
damn. no Pc version of omnioutliner.
14:07:55 [pixel]
it looks quite nice.
14:08:22 [Morbus]
yeah, I know. that does suck about it.
14:08:27 [Morbus]
more reason to get OS X, pixel.
14:08:38 [Morbus]
OO is the only software I've bought (besides OS's) in *years*
14:08:43 [Morbus]
i like it that much.
14:09:14 [pixel]
i use a palm program called LifeBalance, and it works fairly well too. one of a handful of things I've purchased in years too.
14:09:39 [pixel]
hehe
14:12:33 [Morbus]
cha doing today, pixel?
14:13:25 [pixel]
writing a proggie to zip up log files for me on all the servers.
14:13:36 [Ash]
*yawn*
14:13:44 [pixel]
exactly.
14:13:49 [Morbus]
pixel: ahh. using perl?
14:13:49 [Ash]
pixel: Logrotate does not do this?
14:13:55 [pixel]
on windows.
14:13:59 [Ash]
Ohhhh.
14:14:04 [Morbus]
i've been meaning to add Archive::Tar into the Ampheta archive for gzip support in the future.
14:14:09 [Ash]
I don't correspond "windows" with "server"
14:14:18 [Morbus]
yeah, he's one of those people.
14:14:23 [Morbus]
Ash, you were at EtCON?
14:14:25 [Ash]
apparently
14:14:25 [Ash]
hehe
14:14:29 [Ash]
Morbus: Sadly, no :(
14:14:39 [Morbus]
oh. i thought i saw you on the panopticon
14:14:45 [Ash]
Right now I don't get to go to conferences.
14:14:46 [Ash]
heh heh
14:14:48 [Ash]
No moneys!
14:14:50 [Morbus]
you know what, Ash, I have no flipping clue who the hell you are.
14:14:52 [Morbus]
or what you do.
14:14:54 [Ash]
LOL
14:15:00 [Ash]
That's pretty amusing, Morbus.
14:15:10 [Morbus]
like, why the frel are you in infoanarchy, etc. <G>
14:15:14 [Morbus]

14:16:20 [Morbus]
ah. do you code anything?
14:16:45 [Ash]
I don't have any projects released yet, right now I'm working on some non-p2p software
14:16:56 [Morbus]
cool.
14:17:05 [Ash]
network management stuff
14:17:14 [Morbus]
pixel: i'm thinking of turning the Syncasaurus::Bookmarks stuff into CPAN modules.
14:17:20 [Ash]
but in my list of things to do is an internal filesharing system based on alpine
14:17:27 [Morbus]
and then syncasaurus would just be minor utilities around them, converters, ftp uploads, merging, etc.
14:17:45 [pixel]
that's a very good idea.
14:17:47 [Morbus]
the autosyncing across servers would really just be a bash script running various commands.
14:17:51 [pixel]
your first CPAN module too.
14:17:53 [Ash]
Morbus: Does Syncasaurus::Bookmarks do what it sounds like?
14:17:53 [pixel]
right/
14:17:56 [Morbus]
yeah :)
14:18:07 [Morbus]
Ash: what do you think it sounds like?
14:18:08 [Morbus]
<G>
14:18:09 [Ash]
i.e. synchronize moy bookmarks
14:18:09 [Ash]
lol
14:18:11 [Ash]
-ol
14:18:14 [Ash]
-o
14:18:28 [Morbus]
heheheh. yyeah, that's the intent. right now, it just merges and converts to and fro various formats.
14:18:38 [Morbus]
i never got around to writing the intent - just the underlying libraries.
14:18:51 [Ash]
Is it available somewhere?
14:19:03 [Morbus]
hold. phone.
14:21:21 [Morbus]
Ash, yeah, the libraries are.
14:21:31 [Morbus]
http://www.sf.net/projects/syncasaurus/
14:21:43 [Morbus]
i can give you some sample scripts for conversions too.
14:21:50 [Ash]
WOO!
14:22:04 [Morbus]
pixel is using it to export his bookmarks to xbel, to upload them to his server, and then XSLT them into something or other.
14:22:17 [Morbus]
lemme know when you want them
14:22:26 [Ash]
yeah
14:22:34 [Morbus]
yeah?
14:22:35 [Morbus]

unrefined progress, but progress nonetheless.
15:05:38 [redmonk]
I've been busy on Sid anyway
15:05:57 [redmonk]
got my history view sortable by slecting column headers
15:06:09 [redmonk]
not to hard, but had to refactor a bunch of code
15:06:41 [redmonk]
i tend to always start with arrays and dicts for data manipulation, then later refector into ccomposition classes when necessary
15:08:04 [redmonk]
in this case i had to refactor into a custom class for history entries, because i needed to be able to compare two entries for the sorting functions
15:13:49 [Morbus]
* Morbus nods.
15:14:00 [Morbus]
this new code base on ampheta is much better than the one i was using before.
15:14:04 [Morbus]
super more flexible. i'm really happy with it.
15:14:12 [redmonk]
sweet
15:14:18 [Morbus]
i'm excited to move on, but i just gotta finish some more stuff.
15:14:44 [redmonk]
yeah - i'm re-writing Sid from Java, and in the process i'm adding new stuff, really polishing it

15:22:22 [Morbus]
yeah... the ampheta code has gotten smaller, but i've been adding minor new features here and there.
15:22:32 [Morbus]
which has probably been the cause of the slowdown ;()
15:24:01 [redmonk]
hehee.
15:24:02 [redmonk]
yeah
15:24:45 [Morbus]
if pixel does the final thing for the add_unknown today, then I can work on the channel display tonight.
15:24:53 [Morbus]
which is moving over to XML::RSS which should make things a bit simpler in the long run.
15:24:56 [redmonk]
most excellent.
15:25:03 [Morbus]
man, its one of those things that i'm really fucking giddy to finish.
15:25:11 [Morbus]
like "man! i just wish this were done, cos tomorrow is gonna rock!"
15:25:14 [Morbus]
you know?
15:25:16 [redmonk]
how about display by time, not by channel?
15:25:25 [redmonk]
yeah, i know.
15:25:25 [Morbus]
not in this release.
15:25:27 [Morbus]

15:25:34 [redmonk]
urgh.
15:25:36 [redmonk]
;-)
15:25:37 [Morbus]
that feature will come once I have the rss 1.0 backend.
15:25:41 [Morbus]
with the archivals.
15:25:45 [Morbus]
my plans, at the moment:
15:25:53 [Morbus]
v0.93 alpha: testing all the new code.
15:26:06 [Morbus]
v0.93 release: redux of v0.92 only in new code
15:26:17 [redmonk]
ah
15:26:18 [Morbus]
v0.94: beginnings of rss 1.0 backend, minor features.
15:26:28 [Morbus]
v0.95: rss 1.0 backend finalized. morbus takes over the world.
15:26:29 [Morbus]
etc.
15:26:37 [redmonk]
muahaha
15:26:55 [redmonk]
i know a guy who's working on a cocoa-based RSS reader
15:27:08 [redmonk]

i know a guy who just started one over .NET or some such.
15:27:33 [Morbus]
he's been pumping me for info on ampheta.
15:27:38 [redmonk]
Brent Simmons, recently of Userland
15:27:47 [Morbus]
ah, yeah, i think i read that on his site.
15:28:05 [Morbus]
hopefully i can get deus_x to redo his cocoa ampheta frontend for v0.93.
15:28:13 [redmonk]
sweeet
15:28:17 [Morbus]
but i've got a working v0.91 cocoa frontend on my box.
15:28:25 [Morbus]
the interface is still via the browser though (that will probably never change)
15:28:34 [redmonk]
ah
15:28:55 [Morbus]
my major goal is crossplatformness - that's the one thing that really makes ampheta unique.
15:29:06 [Morbus]
besides server side solutions, i know of no other rss clients that run on mac/win/lin
15:29:18 [Morbus]
radio is the closest with win/lin

15:42:28 [Morbus]
That's alright, my friend and I used to write up stories about Star Trek, and we set out ot make a movie using the action figures.
15:42:33 [Morbus]
the quest for the golden targ, it was called.
15:42:51 [Morbus]
since there was a golden targ figure packaged with Worf, I believe.
15:43:01 [Morbus]
and I used to run a RPG club at school <G>
15:44:19 [redmonk]
heh
15:44:24 [Ash]
so Morbus was *that* guy
15:44:30 [redmonk]
uh huh
15:44:32 [Ash]
that explains a lot
15:44:32 [Morbus]
hehehe, oh yeah <G>
15:44:32 [Ash]
<g>
15:44:52 [Morbus]
it was kinda funny. there were lots of funny clubs.
15:45:00 [Morbus]
we had one called the children of christ or something like that.
15:45:00 [Ash]
<Morbus> YOU HAVE NO HONOR! <bully> GET BACK IN THE DUMPSTER!
15:45:07 [Morbus]
so, I started a soldiers of satan club
15:45:12 [Morbus]
since, you know, religious equality and all.
15:45:15 [Ash]
lol!
15:45:24 [Morbus]
thankfully, shortly after I started plastering the school with flyers, both clubs were disbanded.
15:45:25 [Ash]
did you get to wear pentagrams to school, Morbus?
15:45:36 [Morbus]
i wore them before i started the club ;)
15:45:39 [Ash]
heh
15:46:00 [Morbus]
oh, no, it was servants of christ, that's the name.
15:46:18 [Morbus]
soldiers of christ, servants of satan, that was it.
15:46:21 [Morbus]
man, the memories.
15:46:32 [Ash]
heh
15:46:36 [Morbus]
the SOS (ooH, nazi!) slogan was "put those dirty SOCs where they belong!"
15:46:50 [Morbus]
it was quite fun justifying the creation of this club, since the school allowed the SOC to exist.
15:48:40 [Ash]
yeah, I can imagine.
15:53:25 [redmonk]
heh. you make a couple half-garbled comments in #macdev, and suddenly people are asking for your advice.
15:53:58 [Morbus]

16:02:49 [Morbus]
in the mission mode, its fuck ass easy to screw up *just a little bit* and have to start the whole mission over.
16:02:55 [Ash]
Morbus: Yeah, I've noticed that
16:02:57 [Morbus]
if you're just going to kill shit though, it rocks ;)
16:03:05 [Ash]
but the simple missions are easy enough to start over
16:03:09 [Ash]
yeah
16:03:11 [Ash]
chaos mode rules
16:03:27 [Ash]
i like shooting up civilians
16:03:29 [Ash]
ehehe
16:03:45 [Morbus]
hehehe :)
16:03:50 [Morbus]
they should give you evil points for doing so.
16:03:53 [Ash]
yeah
16:03:54 [Ash]
totally
16:03:54 [Morbus]
so, like, you become the corporation.
16:04:07 [Morbus]
and then like, the gangs that follow you around join you.
16:04:10 [Ash]
do you remember how many missions it takes to get out of the mall?
16:04:12 [Morbus]
and start spreading more havoc.
16:04:18 [Morbus]
man, i gotta call them about SOE 2 <G>

Oh, I forgot you did gamegrene
16:05:14 [Ash]
have you ever seen a game called Klonoa 2?
16:05:16 [Ash]
(on PS2)
16:05:34 [Morbus]
yeah, that game rocks.
16:05:38 [Ash]
yeah!
16:05:39 [Morbus]
i really like it.
16:05:47 [Morbus]
that was the first PS 2 game, I bought, actually.
16:05:53 [Ash]
I hadn't heard of it before, but it came with the used PS2 i just bought
16:06:03 [Morbus]
along with some crappy time travel game which I can't remember the name of.
16:06:05 [Ash]
my wife and I were having a blast playing
16:06:13 [Morbus]
* Morbus nods.
16:06:25 [Ash]
i love how they added 3d elements to a side-scroller
16:06:27 [Ash]
it's excellent
16:07:11 [Morbus]
gauntlet legends is pretty fun for mindless killing.
16:07:13 [Morbus]
lots of secrets.
16:07:22 [Morbus]
about 30 hours if you hunt them all done.
16:08:29 [Ash]
that's cool
16:13:13 [Morbus]
a decent action game is ... the capcom one... devil may cry.
16:13:22 [Morbus]
the sucky thing about that is you have to find the secrets as you go.
16:13:25 [Morbus]
you can't go back and get them.
16:13:30 [Morbus]
and the secrets are really fucking hard.
16:13:36 [Morbus]
but its a really good action/fast game.
16:14:12 [Ash]
cool
16:14:21 [Ash]
I've really been enjoying the PS2
16:14:30 [Morbus]
yeah, i'd love it more if i had time to play them.
16:14:36 [Morbus]
i haven't touched it for about two months now.
16:14:38 [Ash]
the controllers are *so* much better than the DC ones
16:14:47 [Morbus]
i'm at the end guy in FFX, just haven't had a chance to beat him.
16:15:01 [Ash]
I also got Super Bust-a-Move, which is very well done
16:15:41 [Ash]
(if you love bust-a-move like I do, anyway)
16:15:41 [Ash]
hehe
16:18:23 [Morbus]
whoa, that's out?
16:18:24 [Morbus]
awesome.
16:18:31 [Morbus]
i play bust-a-move through MAME a lot.
16:20:09 [Ash]
yeah, super bust-a-move rules
16:20:28 [Ash]
not as many characters as the DC version of bust-a-move, but it has other cool stuff
16:20:41 [Ash]
like little teeny bubbles that squeeze through tight spots
16:24:56 [Ash]
and bubbles that tear a line through others
16:24:57 [Ash]
