| 03:20 | <&McMartin> | Man |
| 03:20 | <&McMartin> | My gaming desktop is a lot better at running 8-bit emulation at max speed than my dual-core Celeron~ |
| 03:21 | | * McMartin actually manages to run his simulated-evolution thing on the C64 fast enough to get it to run through its evolved behaviors in a semi-reasonable time. |
| 03:21 | <@celticminstrel> | …do opossums scream? |
| 03:21 | <&McMartin> | boy howdy |
| 03:21 | <&McMartin> | Angry small clawed mammals get into VERY LOUD territory |
| 03:21 | <&McMartin> | Though I am mostly familiar with Cranky Raccoons |
| 03:22 | < Mahal> | they definitely do |
| 03:22 | < Mahal> | although I was delighted by a story I read on the Reddits a day or two ago |
| 03:22 | < Mahal> | Trucker pulled into a layover spot to sleep a bit, had his doors tested, etc, never saw any culprits, but in the morning there were SMALL HANDPRINTS ALL OVER THE TRUCK |
| 03:23 | < Mahal> | significantly after the fact someone suggested racoons |
| 03:23 | < Mahal> | and he finally realised that yes, it was indeed raccoons not supernatural visitations :D |
| 03:23 | <&McMartin> | Not fully #code but I'm going to call this a triumph of UX https://twitter.com/Flei_x/status/1317441545600028673 |
| 03:23 | <&McMartin> | Ring #fits Adventures |
| 03:23 | < Mahal> | aww _bless_ |
| 03:24 | < Mahal> | if it fits they sits |
| 03:27 | <&McMartin> | I also like that the analog stick has a pawprint cap. |
| 03:28 | < Mahal> | I keep considering buying new joycon skins for mine |
| 03:28 | < Mahal> | and caps |

| 04:08 | <&[R]> | Anyone have a copy of the JDK/JRE for Java 1.7, that'll run on x86_64 Linux systems? (I need 1.7 specifically) |
| 04:08 | <&[R]> | Oracle removed that from their site |
| 04:09 | <&McMartin> | Will http://jdk.java.net/java-se-ri/7 do what you need? |
| 04:10 | <&[R]> | Yes, thanks! |
| 04:11 | | NSGuest40112 is now known as Pink |
| 04:11 | <&McMartin> | It looks like openjdk-7-jre is a thing in most debianoids too |
| 04:12 | <&McMartin> | or s/jre/jdk/ if you need the JDK |
| 04:12 | <&[R]> | Ah nope, that's NPE's |
| 04:13 | <&McMartin> | http://openjdk.java.net/install/ has some options for the OpenJDK 7 versions |
| 04:14 | <&McMartin> | Which version of Linux is this? |
| 04:14 | <&[R]> | An Arch spinoff |
| 04:14 | <&[R]> | Trying to run an older version of some Minecraft mods |
| 04:15 | <&McMartin> | Ah. |
| 04:15 | <&McMartin> | Yeah, that's going to make it harder to get prebuilt OpenJDK packages, I suspect. |
| 04:15 | <&McMartin> | I lie! https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/java |
| 04:16 | <&McMartin> | jre7-openjdk, it sounds like. |
| 04:16 | <&[R]> | <3 |
| 04:17 | <&McMartin> | And it also looks like Arch claims OpenJDK is the only option for Arch, so this particular battle will be decided in one pass |
| 04:19 | <&[R]> | Yeah, I previously had the jdk's dumped into /opt/ when I was using Crux |
| 04:19 | <&[R]> | But ATM that system's unresponsive and I just wanted to chill and play minecraft for a bit |
| 04:19 | <&[R]> | Thanks for your help :D |

| 16:58 | <@abudhabi> | Man, bicycle tyres are just like connector standards. Only with tyres, USB has not been invented. |
| 17:01 | <@abudhabi> | An online tyre store has a two-step matching algorithm. First you look at what's printed on the tyre, which could be three different types of notations, so like 700x32C vs 622-40 vs 26x1-3/8. This is the easy part, unless the thing is so worn you can't read it. |
| 17:02 | <@abudhabi> | Then you have to get dirty. Take off the tyre, and measure the width of the inner rim with a measuring device of your choice. From there you can (probably) find the right size. |

| 17:19 | <@abudhabi> | Actually... I was wrong. There are four coding standards and one of them is ISO. |
| 17:19 | <@abudhabi> | So it's *exactly* like computer connectors. |

| 20:17 | <&Reiver> | hahahahah |
| 20:17 | <&Reiver> | Oh man, sorry dude |
| 20:18 | <&Reiver> | There are three standards! We should make an ISO standard to rule them all. There are now four standards. |
| 20:22 | <&McMartin> | It turns out that many problems notionally unique to the tech sector are in no way unique to the tech sector |
| 20:23 | <@ErikMesoy> | GAUGE GAUGE GAUGE. Or do railways count as "early tech sector" ? |

| 20:25 | <&McMartin> | Thinking about it, that's a deeper question than I expected |
| 20:26 | <&McMartin> | A lot of modern tech culture grew out of the model railroad clubs that engineering colleges naturally grew |
| 20:26 | <&McMartin> | I guess there's the question as to whether railways are literally connectors :) |
| 20:33 | <&Reiver> | hahah, oh, but they so very are >_> |
| 20:33 | <&Reiver> | And with the same old debates! |
| 20:33 | <&Reiver> | The thinner ones are more versatile, able to fit in tighter spaces, and cheaper to build. |
| 20:34 | <&Reiver> | The bigger ones are (literally) more inflexible, vastly more expensive to produce... but they boast greater bandwidth, and this increased capability extends the range of equipment that can be compatable, too. |
| 20:35 | <&Reiver> | (Indeed, one of the major headaches the British had in WWII was tanks with guns that weren't powerful enough... this was not some foolish blind spot in doctrine, but "Help, we're struggling to make turrets big enough for the right size guns /and still fit the tanks on our trains/") |
