| 00:58 | <&[R]> | Fuuuuuck |
| 00:58 | <&[R]> | One of the monsters in the game makes a hard-drive failing click |
| 00:59 | <&McMartin> | ? |
| 01:01 | <@celticminstrel> | My computer slept every day this week without issue. This probably supports the theory of the KVM being the culprit since I didn't switch to Windows once this week. |
| 01:01 | <@celticminstrel> | Though I also didn't wake the computer with the keyboard... I used the power button. |
| 01:52 | <&[R]> | McMartin: My speaks are behing my case. So it sounded like I had a failing harddrive when it was just a monster around a wall. |
| 01:52 | <&McMartin> | Oh, so this was not an intentional attempt to mess with the player |
| 01:52 | <&[R]> | No |
| 01:52 | <&McMartin> | Heh |
| 01:52 | <&[R]> | It was some kind of slime enemy |
| 01:53 | <&McMartin> | Mental note: Evil AI in the Starbase messing with the player by occasionally firing off the "USB Device Disconnected" chime |
| 01:53 | <&McMartin> | Someone once made a dance mix out of that and it was unlistenable because AAAA what is wrong with my thumbdrives |
| 02:09 | <&[R]> | That makes a noise? |
| 02:09 | <&[R]> | Ah right, I always switch Windows to the No Sound profile. |
| 02:19 | <@Alek> | ditto |
| 02:20 | <@Alek> | although I'll admit that the Windows bootup sound in the 9x/XP era was oddly soothing. |
| 02:20 | <@Alek> | annoying but soothing. <_< |

| 04:12 | <~Vornotron> | arg. I now understand why there is more than one thing where lua has just nil. |
| 04:19 | <@celticminstrel> | ? |
| 04:20 | <~Vornotron> | trick with nil is that it's the thing you get when you index where there's nothing |
| 04:21 | <~Vornotron> | And is also the same as -- if you call a function with the last argument as nil, it is exactly equivalent to passing one fewer argument |
| 04:25 | <~Vornotron> | so this means if you wish to, for instance, insert a nil into a table, you cant |
| 04:27 | <@celticminstrel> | Ah, this is true. |
| 04:36 | <~Vornotron> | ok. next is the legalize swap and then I've got delaunay triangulation done. |
| 04:36 | <~Vornotron> | ...will have to wait |

| 12:14 | < Vorntastic> | So, most random number generators I know of are sequential: you get one number and then another number and then another number and so forth. Right now I don't want that: instead, I wish to have an indexable random function, which is to say I want to be able to look up, say, the 2000th item that an equivalent sequential rng would produce without actually calculating the ones before it |
| 12:17 | <@abudhabi> | Precalculate and store? |
| 12:19 | < Vorntastic> | Works only for a very limited range unless I put a lot of resources into the table |
| 12:28 | <&[R]> | I don't think any cryptographic randoms could do that |
| 12:28 | <@TheWatcher> | I guess it's possible, but you'd need to convert whatever algorithm your prng is using into a mathematical expression for arbitrary n, and I'm nowhere near good enough a mathematician to work out how to do that for something like a mersenne twister or subtractic generator |
| 12:28 | <@TheWatcher> | *subtractive |
| 12:29 | <&[R]> | You might be able to "fake" it with ISAAC, which works by generating a 256 item array of randomness, then slowly drains that when requested and regenerates it when it's empty... |
| 12:38 | < Vorntastic> | I guess if the add constant is 0, lcg is a multiplicative group |
| 12:40 | < Vorntastic> | Which I can handle using exponentiation |
| 12:44 | < Vorntastic> | Oh, duh, I can enter a coordinate, concatenate a salt, and run it through a hash generator |
| 12:46 | < Vorntastic> | Well, a pepper I guess |
| 12:51 | <@TheWatcher> | IF you're making hash, garlic, salt, and pepper is good~ |

So that if I'm in an editor window, and want to switch back to my browser by clicking in it, woe betide me if I click in the page itself because there's a good chance I'll find myself on the |
