2010-03-05.txt:20:53:02: <AnMaster> hiato yet I like Grieg very much. But a lot of his isn't pompous even though it uses a full orchestra. (Of course some exceptions, like "I dovregubbens sal" (iirc, and "In the hall of the mountain king" in English))

2012-07-04.txt:05:37:47: <Dovregubben> Hi
2012-07-04.txt:05:39:48: <elliott> `welcome Dovregubben
2012-07-04.txt:05:39:59: <HackEgo> Dovregubben: Welcome to the international hub for esoteric programming language design and deployment! For more information, check out our wiki: http://esolangs.org/wiki/Main_Page. (For the other kind of esoterica, try #esoteric on irc.dal.net.)
2012-07-04.txt:05:42:31: <Dovregubben> oh, I don't know any esoteric programming languages
2012-07-04.txt:05:42:45: <Dovregubben> I found this channel on a site about Conway's Game of Life
2012-07-04.txt:05:43:04: <Dovregubben> apparently there's used to be a #gameoflife channel, but there isn't one now
2012-07-04.txt:05:43:54: * Dovregubben is afraid the most esoteric programming language he knows is TI-99/4A BASIC
2012-07-04.txt:05:44:49: <Dovregubben> wait.... logo would be considered a language, right?
2012-07-04.txt:05:44:59: <Dovregubben> haven't seen that in years....
2012-07-04.txt:05:46:50: <Dovregubben> anyone here know anything about Life?
2012-07-04.txt:05:47:34: <itidus21> Dovregubben: make yourself comfortable.. i think you're in the right place
2012-07-04.txt:06:07:34: <Dovregubben> hi
2012-07-04.txt:06:09:38: <Dovregubben> what qualifies something as a "methuselah?"
2012-07-04.txt:06:10:44: <Dovregubben> beyond the obvious, I mean
2012-07-04.txt:06:10:57: <Dovregubben> like... does it have to be assymetrical?
2012-07-04.txt:06:12:09: <Dovregubben> does it have to be composed only of one instance of a pattern?
2012-07-04.txt:06:13:37: <Dovregubben> yeah....
2012-07-04.txt:06:13:50: <Dovregubben> hmm...
2012-07-04.txt:06:14:08: <Dovregubben> I've been goofing around with a pattern of 12 cells that takes 1145 generations to stabilize
2012-07-04.txt:06:14:25: <Dovregubben> I can't be the first person to discover it
2012-07-04.txt:06:14:29: <Dovregubben> but I can't find it anywhere
2012-07-04.txt:06:14:54: <elliott> Dovregubben: take a look at http://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/List_of_long-lived_methuselahs or such, perhaps?
2012-07-04.txt:06:15:03: <Dovregubben> looked there
2012-07-04.txt:06:15:06: <Dovregubben> not there
2012-07-04.txt:06:15:18: <Dovregubben> I'm thinking maybe because it's symmetrical it's not considered a methuselah?
2012-07-04.txt:07:01:34: <Dovregubben> Happy Birthday America!
2012-07-04.txt:07:02:32: <Dovregubben> It's funny we call this independence day
2012-07-04.txt:07:03:37: <Dovregubben> we may have declared independence on July 4, 1776, but the rest of the world didn't recognize us as independent until years later (if at all)

2012-07-06.txt:06:56:19: <Dovregubben> anyone here use Linux?
2012-07-06.txt:07:12:54: <Dovregubben> I hate windows...
2012-07-06.txt:07:13:48: <Dovregubben> I had to install SolidWorks for school.... so I installed windows (xp) on my own hardware for the first time in a decade
2012-07-06.txt:07:14:03: <Dovregubben> now it's clobbering grub every time I boot to Windows
2012-07-06.txt:07:14:15: <Dovregubben> and not like overwriting it with ntldr
2012-07-06.txt:07:14:22: <Dovregubben> it's making the whole computer unbootable
2012-07-06.txt:07:14:38: <Dovregubben> gamer?
2012-07-06.txt:07:15:34: <Dovregubben> I wish I had a dollar for every time I've heard someone say:
2012-07-06.txt:07:16:42: <Dovregubben> "I would totally use Linux if I could play [Diablo, WoW, Skyrim, etc...]
2012-07-06.txt:07:16:43: <Dovregubben> "
2012-07-06.txt:07:16:48: <Dovregubben> huh?
2012-07-06.txt:07:16:58: <zzo38> Dovregubben: I don't play any of those games on my computer
2012-07-06.txt:07:17:08: <Dovregubben> I don't think it's SolidWorks' fault
2012-07-06.txt:07:17:17: <Dovregubben> I'm pretty sure it's mse
2012-07-06.txt:07:17:26: <Dovregubben> hmm...
2012-07-06.txt:07:17:30: <Dovregubben> second hard drive in a laptop
2012-07-06.txt:07:17:33: <Dovregubben> not really practical
2012-07-06.txt:07:18:18: <Dovregubben> zzo38: then why run Windows?
2012-07-06.txt:07:18:37: <zzo38> Dovregubben: Because my computer included it and I did not change it.
2012-07-06.txt:07:18:37: <fizzie> Dovregubben: You can always do the grub-in-Windows-boot-menu thing if you think that might work better.
2012-07-06.txt:07:23:04: <Dovregubben> screw it.... I'll just live with booting from USB until the end of the quarter
2012-07-06.txt:07:24:30: <Dovregubben> I meant no offense
2012-07-06.txt:07:26:10: <Dovregubben> I just can't think of a single reason for the average user to use windows other than video games
2012-07-06.txt:07:27:07: <Dovregubben> I will admit that I have a windows virtual machine for the one time a year that I actually need Window for something
2012-07-06.txt:07:28:29: <Dovregubben> yeah, OpenOffice is pretty awful
2012-07-06.txt:07:28:52: <Dovregubben> I've been using Google docs for a while
2012-07-06.txt:07:28:59: <Dovregubben> it's also slow
2012-07-06.txt:07:37:07: <Dovregubben> if I have the option, I write my presentations in HTML
2012-07-06.txt:07:38:18: <Dovregubben> the nice thing about HTML is I don't need to bring my computer with me just to be sure I have the right software available
2012-07-06.txt:07:38:39: <Dovregubben> I think it's been almost 20 years since I saw a computer without a web browser
2012-07-06.txt:07:38:51: <Dovregubben> and if I ever want to make a web site out of it, I'm already done!
2012-07-06.txt:07:39:06: <Dovregubben> just need to upload it to a web server
2012-07-06.txt:07:39:48: <Dovregubben> I tried LaTeX once... didn't have time to learn how to use it
2012-07-06.txt:07:40:49: <Dovregubben> or maybe it wasn't LaTeX.... it was something TeX
2012-07-06.txt:07:41:38: <Dovregubben> okay, I guess you're right
2012-07-06.txt:07:41:51: <Dovregubben> I've seen hundreds of servers without web browsers
2012-07-06.txt:07:41:58: <Dovregubben> and have a few of my own
2012-07-06.txt:07:42:26: <Dovregubben> although I have installed Links on a few :-D
2012-07-06.txt:07:43:49: <Dovregubben> I didn't install Links for presentation purposes :-P
2012-07-06.txt:07:46:52: <Dovregubben> I've had a terminal open on a projector before
2012-07-06.txt:07:47:12: <Dovregubben> at LinuxFest NorthWest
2012-07-06.txt:07:47:18: <Dovregubben> that wasn't the whole presentation though
