I'm starting to dabble in Python, so I'm reading a No Starch Press book on Python that I'd gotten in a Humble Bundle a year ago... right in the intro it's teaching you how to use Google and StackOverflow. I don't know how seriously I can take this as a learning resource. 07:50 <@Corydon76> Um, why not? That's how professional programmers work nowadays. 07:51 <@Corydon76> When you have an intractable problem, it's likely that someone else, somewhere, has had that problem before and has found a solution. 08:07 <@brimstone> Dolemite: … how do you solve problems now? 08:08 <@Dolemite> Typically I look for the reference manuals 08:09 <@Dolemite> Stackoverflow has so much garbage intertwined with the good stuff that it's a waste of time 08:09 <@Dolemite> But also, you guys need to drink another cup of coffee and wake up that sense of humor 08:10 <@Corydon76> I missed the humor tag. 08:12 <@Dolemite> If I have to add it, it's not worth it. 08:16 < aestetix> hey who wants to hear a joke 08:17 < aestetix> how do you help a grieving gamer? 08:17 < aestetix> you console him 08:36 <@Evilpig> I need to debug an html layout issue in mobile chrome... how? chrome's desktop dev tools shwo the mobile view completely different from how it shows up on my damned phone 08:50 < aestetix> https://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker 08:51 < PigBot> Title: GitHub - speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker: Spectre & Meltdown vulnerability/mitigation checker for Linux (at github.com) http://tinyurl.com/y9zvhw9j 08:52 <@Evilpig> okay chrome dev tools -> remote device debugging. that is fuckin' cool 08:54 < aestetix> I'm still pretty amazed at how badly the industry is collectively handling the Meltdown thing 08:55 -!- Mirage [~mirage@ra.thehippo.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 08:56 < aestetix> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64gTjdUrDFQ 08:56 < PigBot> Title: BREAKING: Twitter Engineers To "Ban a Way of Talking" Through "Shadow Banning" - YouTube (at www.youtube.com) http://tinyurl.com/ybbc82de 08:57 -!- Mirage [~mirage@ra.thehippo.net] has joined #se2600 08:57 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o Mirage] by ChanServ 09:50 -!- K`Tetch [~no@unaffiliated/ktetch] has joined #se2600 09:54 -!- K`Tetch_ [~no@24-178-141-147.dhcp.thtn.ga.charter.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] 10:12 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@unaffiliated/brimstone] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 10:17 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@unaffiliated/brimstone] has joined #se2600 10:17 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o brimstone] by ChanServ 12:10 <@Catonic> k3ymkr: When I mention XF86Config and figuring out Mode lines the hard way with a fixed frequency 20" monitor... people just look at me like I am from another star system. 12:48 -!- remoford [~remo_lapt@c-69-137-84-154.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 13:04 <@ezelkow1> hehe, i still remember those warnings scaring the hell out of me 13:04 <@ezelkow1> "please dont melt the monitor, please dont melt the monitor" 13:41 <@Mirage> Yeah, I don't remember what was worse..trying to get the fixed refresh rate big HP monitors to work or the Sun ones. 13:42 <@Mirage> The Sun ones meaning the ones with the RGB connections on the back that took a couple different adaptors to even be able to connect to a normal VGA card. 13:43 <@Mirage> There were some of the Matrox cards that were insanely hard to get set right also. 13:49 <@Dolemite> Ok, I heard rumblings of somebody wanting a date set for geeknic 13:49 <@Dolemite> That basically boils down to you, Mirage. What weekend do you think Sarah will forget to ask for vacation time? LOL 13:51 <@Evilpig> lol 13:52 <@Corydon76> May 18th-20th, I have a conflict in Gatlinburg 13:52 <@Dolemite> I'm looking at May 11-13 13:52 <@Dolemite> April is completely out for me 13:52 <@Dolemite> Our usual hotel is showing $89/night rooms for that weekend 13:53 <@Corydon76> You mean that hotel didn't burn down? 13:53 <@Dolemite> Nope 13:53 <@Corydon76> Unlike the resort with the water park? 13:53 <@Dolemite> Correct, but only about 75% of the one with the water park burned down 13:54 <@Dolemite> We stayed in the River Terrace this past Spring 13:55 <@Dolemite> Mirage: How does May 11-13 look for you in terms of GeekNIC? 13:55 <@Corydon76> I wonder how many people who got hoodwinked into buying a timeshare in that resort are pissed when it burned down 13:55 <@Evilpig> they dont' know any better, they bought timeshare 13:57 <@Dolemite> FYI, while I don't care for timeshares, the company treated both the owners and the employees extremely well. They offered alternative weeks at any other resort owned by the same parent company with no exchange fees. As for the employees, every single one of them continued to get paid their normal salary while the place was shut down, and once it re-opened, everybody was retasked so that nobody got 13:57 <@Dolemite> laid off. 13:59 <@Dolemite> Ah, crap, never mind about May 11-13. That Sunday is Mother's Day. 13:59 <@Evilpig> sounds like a perfect day to run away to the woods 13:59 <@Dolemite> The next weekend works, though 14:00 <@Evilpig> may 18 - 20? 14:00 <@Dolemite> Yeah 14:00 <@Evilpig> that's the weekend corydon has the conflict 14:00 <@Dolemite> Plus Corydon will already be in Gatlinburg, but can't bother us :) 14:00 <@Evilpig> haha 14:01 <@Dolemite> That's pretty much the only weekend I can do unless we move it to March, but then you get the Spring Break crowds 14:02 <@Corydon76> Spring Break crowds sounds lovely. College boys! 14:02 <@Evilpig> college kids goto gatlinburg? 14:02 <@Dolemite> Corydon76 is just looking to try out the new DPStampede.com 14:02 <@Corydon76> When there's drinking on the strip, yes 14:03 <@Evilpig> wait... what? 14:03 <@Dolemite> Evilpig: They do when they're coming with their parents who are fitting the bill 14:03 <@Evilpig> open containers on the strip? 14:03 <@Corydon76> Not open containers, but there's places on the strip that give free samples of booze 14:03 <@Corydon76> You can get pretty toasted just on the free samples 14:04 <@Corydon76> Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything like that... 14:04 <@Evilpig> I knew about those. I thought they went the route of bourbon street and open containers 14:04 <@Dolemite> Even with the limitations that were passed on the free samples, you can get pretty wasted 14:05 <@Dolemite> No, the folks who live in Sevier County still think that it's a "Family Friendly Destination" and resisted even letting restaurants serve for the longest time 14:05 <@Corydon76> Took me about 4 places with free samples, a mixture of moonshine and wine, but at the end, I was unsafe to drive 14:05 <@Dolemite> When it was being debated for Pigeon Forge to allow liquor by the drink several years ago, I kept trolling the folks who brought up family values 14:06 <@Dolemite> I'd say, "Yep, you're right, nothing says family values like tramp stamps, wife beaters, and Marlboros." 14:06 <@Corydon76> Anyway, the point is that the presence of college kids is a plus. 14:06 <@Corydon76> Y'know, Dolemite, on Saturday evening in Gatlinburg, everyone's bisexual! 14:07 <@Evilpig> was talking to notlarry at lunch about me driving up there in the fancy car so the warmer weather the better 14:07 <@Dolemite> Well, the rest of us have an intolerance for large crowds, so Spring Break is a negative 14:07 <@Dolemite> May 18 14:07 <@Dolemite> The king bed rooms are all in that second building set back from the river, right? 14:07 <@Evilpig> sounds right 14:07 <@Dolemite> The ones actually on the river are the 2 Queen bed rooms? 14:08 <@Evilpig> I think i've had a king on the river before 14:08 <@Corydon76> "2 queens" sounds like an orgy to me. 14:09 <@Dolemite> Everything sounds like an orgy to you 14:09 <@Evilpig> ^ 14:09 <@Dolemite> Tour of the Twinkie Factory 14:09 <@Dolemite> Moon Pie Sampling 14:09 <@Dolemite> DPStampede 14:10 <@Evilpig> DP anything 14:10 <@Corydon76> DP House Party at Play Nashville 14:10 <@Corydon76> Of course, there it's intentionally suggestive 14:14 <@Dolemite> Ok, room booked 14:14 <@Evilpig> I'll do that here in a sec 14:18 <@Dolemite> Just created a FB event and invited usual suspects in my friends list. 14:28 -!- HackMaster [uid45710@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-snzflypscfnnhhno] has joined #se2600 14:29 <@Dolemite> Seriously.
