[22:45:28] <+Tari> well, it has to find a disc, and check the MBR to see if its valid [22:45:32] <+Tari> if not, try again [22:45:37] <+Tari> if no more discs, complain [22:45:45] * MetalRand breaks out his XP CD and does some experimenting. [22:45:46] <+BrandonW> No, not the BIOS. I don't care about that. [22:45:52] <+BrandonW> The disc itself searches for more devices. [22:45:56] <+Tari> yeah [22:46:00] <+Tari> no idea how it does that [22:46:20] <+Tari> probably a similar way GRUB (or whatever) does it [22:46:25] <+Tari> especially with grub-install [22:49:58] -!- Hunterkll [~Hunterkll@host-12-199-80-11.clearviewcatv.net] has quit [Quit: This computer has gone to sleep] [22:51:27] -!- Sir_Lewk [~john@c-76-98-224-234.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #tcpa [22:51:29] <@efneTI86> [Sir_Lewk] THE SPOON IS A LIE!!!

[22:56:27] -!- Tyler2 [~nexon@residence-204-75.henday.ualberta.ca] has quit [Read error: Operation timed out] [22:56:28] <+BrandonW> I would say that that's all it does.

[22:59:51] <+BrandonW> Certainly looks to me like it's jumping to 7C00h once it's done. [23:00:12] <+BrandonW> Hm... [23:01:01] < MetalRand> Can I see the disassembly? [23:01:12] <+BrandonW> I don't know, can you?

[23:10:23] <+BrandonW> I started to write Mario in it. [23:10:28] <+BrandonW> I know I have that code laying around somewhere... [23:10:31] <+BrandonW> It never scrolled, though. [23:11:15] <@E-J> when you will start luigi? [23:11:44] <+BrandonW> Joe Wingbermuehle wrote Tetris in it.

[23:13:22] < MetalRand> What language is that [23:13:24] < Peter_W> (explorer.exe takes over in windows, bringing up the image preview function..) [23:13:24] < Peter_W> C [23:13:34] <+Tari> find a library [23:13:39] <+BrandonW> ShellExecuteEx. [23:13:43] <+Tari> or that [23:13:52] < Peter_W> Thakee :) [23:18:12] < MetalRand> I remember vaguely, when I was about three or four years old, using some really old-looking computer, and I can't remember what kind it was... I think it was probably a Texas Instrument computer, but can't remember... [23:18:23] <+BrandonW> A TI-99/4A?! [23:19:17] < MetalRand> Yeah! That's it! [23:19:39] < MetalRand> I remember this: http://www.melissamanske.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/ti994a.jpg [23:19:52] <+BrandonW> I have one. [23:19:56] <+BrandonW> Sitting a few feet from me. [23:20:30] <+Sir_Lewk> I think that has a better color range than my thinkpad! [23:22:10] <+BrandonW> Of course. [23:22:12] <+BrandonW> Because Thinkpads suck. [23:23:11] <+Sir_Lewk> >:( [23:26:09] <+BrandonW> It didn't occur to me until just a few minutes ago that Lieutenant Fisher (patient zero from The Fourth Horseman episode of Stargate SG-1) also played a Replicator in Atlantis' The Return Part 2. [23:26:21] <+BrandonW> I must be losing it, right? [23:28:29] <+Sir_Lewk> sounds like it [23:30:15] <+Sir_Lewk> you're MAD, MAAAAAAAADDDDD I SAY [23:34:34] <+BrandonW> "You...built a stargate out of spare parts and a toaster." "Actually, this'll be a little bit harder than that." [23:36:23] <@E-J> i think brandon has lost it years ago [23:36:31] <@E-J> no offence [23:36:39] <@E-J> offense* [23:37:06] <+BrandonW> None taken. [23:37:40] < MetalRand> People say they (or someone) is always losing "it," and never define what "it" is... [23:38:04] <+Sir_Lewk> sanity, but we wouldn't expect you to know what that is. [23:38:32] < Calgar> I don't suffer from insanity, i enjoy every moment of it [23:38:48] < MetalRand> Maybe I broke something when I went tobogganing down the stairway when I was ten. [23:39:05] < _Digital> or somehting broke you [23:39:09] <+Sir_Lewk> haha [23:39:13] < MetalRand> At the end, I flew off the toy box lid, and flew head-first into the wall. [23:39:23] <+Sir_Lewk> I just saw a video of a kid doing that [23:39:50] <+Sir_Lewk> my mother has stolen the remote and won't turn off that home video show :S [23:40:23] < _Digital> MetalRand, wouldn't surprise us [23:40:27] <+BrandonW> You share a TV with your mother? [23:41:17] < MetalRand> Everyone else in this place has a TV except for me. All I have is the living room television. Not that it matters, since I don't really watch that much television anyway. [23:41:51] <+BrandonW> That's why you're screwed up., [23:41:54] <+BrandonW> Everyone needs TV. [23:42:20] < _Digital> you need sunlight BrandonW, though [23:42:33] < MetalRand> Reading books > Listening to radio > Watching television. [23:43:18] <@Andy_J> That's bass-ackwards. [23:43:41] < Peter_W> o.O [23:43:46] < Peter_W> Fishies! [23:43:58] < Peter_W> Or ... *thud* [23:44:44] <+Sir_Lewk> " You share a TV with your mother?" I'm home for the week [23:44:49] < Calgar> well.... someones head better roll at Chase Paymentech... http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=768137&page=2 this was quite.. disturbing.... [23:44:51] <+Sir_Lewk> I actually don't have a TV [23:45:23] <+Sir_Lewk> MetalRand++ [23:45:25] <+Sir_Lewk> books rock [23:45:28] < Peter_W> I'm on vacation this week as well [23:45:50] < Peter_W> Too bad my work actually *increases* on vacations... and my parents are headed off into the sunset [23:46:05] < Peter_W> turning my vacation into theirs :p [23:47:08] <@E-J> i listen radio almost never [23:47:35] < MetalRand> I used to listen to radio all the time. [23:47:43] < Calgar> radio still exists? [23:47:53] < Calgar> i thought that died years ago? [23:47:59] <@E-J> i have radio at home [23:48:08] < MetalRand> I stopped when I got a computer that could handle MP3s. :P [23:48:40] <@E-J> my musical taste is so fixed that even finnish radios can't cover it [23:49:00] < Peter_W> #define radio (in_car || alarm_clock) [23:49:06] <@E-J> one radio station plays good music but it's daily playlist is very short [23:50:03] <@E-J> Peter_W: i have put my computer to start music every "workday" at 7 or something like that [23:50:13] < _Digital> there is this new fad called HD Radio over here in the states... [23:50:15] < MetalRand> I grew up on variety music and Rap/Hip-Hop. [23:50:16] <@E-J> i don't wake up to that though [23:50:48] <@E-J> we have digital and analog radio stations here [23:50:51] <+Sir_Lewk> I grew up hating music [23:50:55] <@E-J> tv is only digital [23:50:55] < MetalRand> That's all radio played where I lived, so that's all I ended up liking. :P [23:51:12] <@E-J> i grew up listening metal [23:51:42] <@E-J> all boys in elementery school listened metallica or guns and roses, girls listened ace of base and other europop [23:51:46] < Peter_W> E-J: My computer's fan is so loud it would keep me awake for hours before I fell into a fog [23:52:15] < MetalRand> I didn't get into the Rock and Metal until 'bout the middle of Ninth grade, when someone convinced me to listen to a Metal version of Juvenile's "Back That Ass Up." [23:52:44] <@E-J> MetalRand: you are just that much younger :) [23:52:53] <+|DarkLor|> Heh., Rock anmd Metal is about all I listen to. [23:53:26] <+|DarkLor|> With the occasion Country and Classical mixed in. [23:53:36] <+|DarkLor|> occasional* [23:54:05] <@E-J> i still have my metallica and nirvana c-casettes here, but i think i haven't listened most of them since 90es [23:54:30] <@E-J> that time it was casette to player and over and over again same album [23:56:01] < MetalRand> Now, I'm liking Industrial/Darkwave/EBM over the Rock and Metal. [23:56:25] <@E-J> no mp3s, no decent internet, no p2p, only library where you can borrow cds and record them to casettes [23:56:55] <@E-J> MetalRand: industrial like rammstein, die krupps, kmfdm or other? [23:57:02] * MetalRand nods. [23:57:27] < MetalRand> And Grendel and Funker Vogt -- two most favorite. [23:58:27] <@E-J> i think nowdays i like most industrial, postmetal, doom metal, melodic death metal and folk metal [23:59:15] <+|DarkLor|> What about Prog Metal such as Dream Theater, Queensryche or Symphony X? [23:59:19] <@E-J> and then some various pervessions with other bands like loits and kalmah (both are maybe black metal) --- Log closed Sat Mar 29 00:00:00 2008
