04:35:35 <zzo38> When I watch the television I like to enable both the captions and the sound, although some people don't like the captions. (Someone said to me that she prefers the talking, but enabling the captions does not preclude also sound.)
04:36:47 <zzo38> It seem that sometimes the people who wrote the caption does not even know what they said; I would hope that they should ask the people who made the TV show or who are talking on the TV show, so that they can write it on the caption!
04:40:21 <zzo38> What would you think of such thing as this?
04:42:16 <zzo38> Is there any TV caption code to tell it to not display some of the captions? I think it can be useful if you write caption for Jeopardy then you can write the clues also into the captions but write them concealed so that it the clue will not be doubled on the TV screen, but is still displayed if you print out the captions.

21:53:35 -!- hppavilion[2] has changed nick to hppavilion[1].
21:54:43 <shachaf> I'm probably going to be buying a laptop.
21:54:49 <int-e> (The word is good enough for Bruce Schneier so it's good enough for me)
21:54:55 <shachaf> But my experiences lead me to avoid HP Pavilions.
21:55:34 <shachaf> My experiences with an HP Pavilion laptop, I mean.
21:55:34 <orin> shachaf: I recommend thinkpad
21:55:36 <int-e> /ignore is still a win on that front, IMHO.
21:56:00 <shachaf> orin: Do you? More than e.g. Dell XPS 15?
21:56:10 <hppavilion[1]> I recommend buying a soldering iron and some silicone
21:56:19 <shachaf> Which Thinkpad is as good as Dell XPS 15?
21:56:25 <orin> IME Dells come loaded with more crap software
21:56:47 <shachaf> Well, I wouldn't be running Windows most of the time anyway.
21:56:53 <hppavilion[1]> What would it be like if I had a computer that wasn't full of unnecessary shit?
21:57:05 <shachaf> Also I could buy the Signature Edition from the Microsoft Store, which comes with a "no bloatware" promise.
21:57:28 -!- Reece` has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer).
21:57:30 <shachaf> Doesn't Lenovo put spyware in its computers anyway?
21:57:52 <shachaf> Anyway I hardly use Windows so I care about the hardware.
21:57:55 -!- zzo38 has quit (Quit: zzo38).
21:58:43 <orin> shachaf: in that case, the manufacturer hardly matters, other than chassis aesthetics
21:58:46 <gamemanj> (What Linux feels like depends on the distribution.)
21:59:11 <orin> shachaf: I like black
21:59:34 <orin> and their T series is suitably boxy and tough looking
22:00:13 <orin> like a MiG-31 of laptops
22:00:14 <gamemanj> laptops, laptops... who needs new laptops
22:00:49 * gamemanj points at a laptop that is (probably) 4 or 5 years old IIRC
22:00:55 <myname> i had an arch linux on a server that didn't have man installed :D
22:01:50 <gamemanj> also, orin, that's computer-colour-ist
22:01:56 <hppavilion[1]> (It does have OneKey Optimizer, which is nice, albeit probably useless)
22:01:58 <gamemanj> don't discriminate computers and laptops by colour
22:02:56 <orin> but I don't like silver coloured computers
22:03:00 <hppavilion[1]> gamemanj: Yeah, only discriminate by computer gender, religion, national origin, sexuality, or gender identity
22:03:43 <gamemanj> hppavilion[1]: Computers, to the best of my knowledge, don't have gender, religion, sexuality, or gender identity. But yeah, also don't discriminate based on national origin.
22:04:15 * gamemanj stares into hppavilion[1]'s deep eyes.
22:04:18 <myname> laptops are post gender
22:05:36 <orin> All laptops are made in China by Taiwanese manufacturers abyway
22:06:26 <orin> the Guangdong megacity
22:06:53 <orin> My dad went there once, he borught back a lot of cool picutres
22:07:50 <orin> one day I want to live in a city that big
22:08:13 <orin> Toronto is insufficiently urban
22:10:48 <shachaf> Apple probably makes the best laptops.
22:10:55 <shachaf> But I don't want an Apple computer.
22:11:36 <orin> shachaf: you mean, Apple hires 鴻海科技集團 to make laptops, according to their specs.
22:11:50 <orin> Apple doesnt actually manufacture any laptops
22:12:07 <shachaf> Apple laptops are probably the best ones.
22:12:20 <shachaf> Whether they manufacture them or cause other people to manufacture them is irrelevant.
22:12:30 <pikhq> Few *entities* actually do manufacturing of electronics themselves.
22:12:43 <orin> My Thinkpad has a button mouse
22:13:53 <orin> it has a touchpad and a trackpoint, but I actually plug in a usb mouse most of the time
22:14:01 <myname> i'd love a sony vaio p with modern hardware
22:15:59 -!- MoALTz has quit (Quit: Leaving).
22:16:04 <orin> and, interestingly until recently, cpu's were almost exclusively manufactured in the USA
22:16:16 <shachaf> Why did it stop being interesting recently?
22:16:28 <orin> shachaf: ...argh
22:17:25 <orin> I meant that now China manufactures some CPU's
22:18:02 <shachaf> I'd be surprised if Intel did any CPU manufacturing in China.
22:18:49 <orin> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunway
22:19:16 <int-e> and there's the whole export restriction debacle that prompted China to make their own ... surprisingly competetive ... CPUs
22:19:18 <shachaf> When can I get a Mill? twh
22:20:41 <int-e> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunway_TaihuLight ... so closely related to orin's link.
22:23:03 <shachaf> http://millcomputing.com/docs/
22:23:29 <shachaf> You should watch the videos.
22:24:15 <int-e> I think I've seen it mentioned but it didn't stick and I didn't investigate in any detail. Thanks for the reminder!
22:25:09 <shachaf> Yes, I ws in that situation the first several times I heard about it.
22:25:38 <shachaf> Eventually I got around to looking into it and then I watched all the videos.
22:26:46 <shachaf> If you watch them on YouTube you might want to put it on 1.5x or 2x speed.
22:28:59 <gamemanj> you know, I don't see any actual hardware on this Mill site
22:29:04 <gamemanj> it may well not exist as a real product
22:29:49 <gamemanj> Oh, apparently at least the ISA semi-exists, because they've been talking about their LLVM compiler work
22:30:44 <int-e> lots of vapor though

22:36:22 <int-e> even some of the talks are vaporware...
22:36:40 <int-e> "The talk will describe the machinery behind the Mill IPC protocols [...]"
22:37:35 <shachaf> Maybe the Mill people would HireFly
22:37:36 -!- centrinia has joined.
22:37:49 <shachaf> I don't think they pay any of their employees any money.
22:38:11 <shachaf> Actually I heard one of them gets a bit now.
22:40:59 <FireFly> I made a sierpinski carpet in K earlier today

22:41:53 <int-e> The belt is a cute idea. They say they have whitepapers but the closest to that I currently see is the wiki.
22:42:22 <int-e> Not impressed so far. And I have no bandwidth for videos, here.
22:42:59 <shachaf> Last I checked there wasn't much information anywhere except the videos.
22:43:25 <int-e> well, videos are an awful medium for actual information.
22:43:33 <shachaf> I can sympathize with not wanting to get the information via videos.
22:43:45 <shachaf> I think you can get some information elsewhere too, e.g. http://millcomputing.com/topic/introduction-to-the-mill-cpu-programming-model-2/
22:49:12 <int-e> Oh well I may have a look at one or two of the talks this week... just need to be at work.
22:49:51 <int-e> presumably the guy is a gifted speaker.

23:48:40 <zzo38> On this computer I have some pinball game that is involving pokemon and has some kind of strange scoring, for example for each of your pokemons (you can have up to six) how many points you get is
23:49:21 <zzo38> reelvalues(i)*int(m*(i+1.9+level_reached/3)) where reelvalues(i) is the number of that pokemon, int is rounding down a number to an integer, i is the slot number from 0 to 9, and level_reached is calculated based on what modes you have completed.
23:49:35 <zzo38> And m is 5 if you have run out of balls to play, or 1 otherwise.
23:51:19 <shachaf> Why is reelvalues(i) a function of i?
23:51:48 <zzo38> Probably it is a array, I think
23:51:56 <zzo38> (Although I am not quite sure why it is called that)
