00:03 <@Dagmar> Not an outright bad idea, but those charts will change as we gain more precise data about stellar cartography
00:04 <@Dagmar> Remember, Notch had that other space game he was working on (now abandoned afaik) which just threw you into space and gave you the tools to spot pulsars
00:04 <@Dagmar> In theory, pulsars are unique enough that if you could find three of them near you, you could work out your rough location in space
00:04 <@Dagmar> ...meaning that sort of thing is brute-forceable on limited hardware
00:05 <@Dagmar> I, for one, was ready to crush some kids, since the CPU you were going to use in game was based on the COmmodore 64.
00:05 <@Dagmar> I was really looking forward to crushing some dreams there.
00:36 < RangerZ> Dagmar: I think you'd need 4 ( or 5?) because of the issues that "time = gravity = fuck Newtonian physics working on the small scale", etc, lol
00:37 < RangerZ> b/c the 3 could be so far away that you can't gauge 'depth' as accurately as you'd want, so obviously the more the merrier
00:41 <@Dagmar> RangerZ: It's a game.  Notch wasn't going to try to model things no one understands
00:41 <@Dagmar> ...and you wouldn't need depth, just relative signal strength
00:41 < RangerZ> true
00:42 < RangerZ> for a possible research topic.... I once thought about looking into standards for space travel communications, etc..... but they already exist.... lol
00:43 < RangerZ> I was kinda amused... and saddened, hehe
00:49 < RangerZ> I guess it makes sense since we've been sending data to/from mars let alone all the way out to Vger
01:05 <@Dagmar> IPv6 already has the stuff for that
01:05 <@Dagmar> ...or course, Voyager probably couldn't even say "IPv6" without running out of memeory

14:10 < aestetix> So
14:10 < aestetix> I'm curious how that Rachel women was even elected to be president of the NAACP
14:10 < aestetix> Are the board members stupid?
14:12 <@oddball> racist
14:13 <@oddball> She claims to be black.  That should be good enough for you.
14:13 <@oddball> Oh, sorry.  You're sexist too for contradicting her story.
14:16 <@oddball> Heh... someone in a different channel just said this: "So a woman who pretended to be a victim joined a group of people who claim to be victims of race - so they... make her a victim of race?"
14:32 <@Evilpig> heh
14:42 < Warcop> @Dagmar: OK, so track the hyperbola between several fixed points in space (aka satellites) and their subsequent tracking and changed tracking of objects in space. AKA "key rotation"
14:42 < PigBot`> Warcop: Error: "Dagmar:" is not a valid command.
14:56 <@Dagmar> Why
15:08 < Warcop> cuz it sounds fraking cool
15:08 < Warcop> thats all
15:08 < Warcop> and I want laser beams
15:08 < Warcop> Yes I know elliptical cryptography and all that wizbang is fun.. but.. lasers and stars
16:15 <@Evilpig> yeah go shooting lasers at distant stars so aliens come and attack us. *pew* *pew* *pew*
17:02 <@Evilpig> Mirage: how are your fios boxes connected in the house?  RG6?  Cat6?

19:25 <@Dagmar> Warcop: Okay.  I was on the fence about what you were saying.  I didn't know if you were being sarcastic, or were asking me to do a whole bunch of math work or what... because it sounded like you were outlining something more more computationally useful than what was previously on the table
19:26 <@Dagmar> ...believe it or not
19:26 <@Dagmar> \eheh
19:26 <@Dagmar> DAMN NEWEGG
19:26 <@Dagmar> Haven't shipped my shit yet
