And people are loathe to update their browsers. 14:58 < sir_lewk> yeah, that bugs me too 14:58 <@benryves> It's all very well for Microsoft to release IE 8, which actually works pretty damned well, but it'll be another five years until you can start relying on people using it. 14:59 < sir_lewk> my hometown schooldistrict is still using IE6 14:59 < sir_lewk> is IE8 fully released now? 14:59 <@benryves> Nope, still in beta 2. 14:59 < sir_lewk> ah 14:59 <+T2> Still not as good as other browsers 15:00 < sir_lewk> meh, firefox has gone down the shitter imho (emphasise on the 'o', don't need a flamewar this early ;)) 15:00 < sir_lewk> I've been using konqueror and arora as my main browsers, firefox for youtube and the gmail/chat thing 15:00 <@benryves> T2: In terms of standards, no, but at least it passes Acid2. ;) 15:01 <+T2> Ya, FF is taking a tumble, its becoming a slow giant 15:01 < sir_lewk> it's come full circle, back to mozilla ;) 15:02 <+T2> Mind you 3.1 is quite a bit faster than 3.0 15:02 < TheStorm> meh I don't really notice a difference except on slower comp's 15:02 < sir_lewk> seamonkey isn't all that bad last time I looked at it though 15:02 < sir_lewk> hmm, I'm on 3.0.5 right now 15:02 < TheStorm> I just wish they would update ThunderBird already 15:03 <+T2> I'm gonna have to stick with FF though, Opera/Safari/Chrome have icky interfaces in my honest opinion 15:03 <@benryves> Well, if you don't like Opera it's no surprise you don't like Chrome's rip-off interface. ;) 15:03 < sir_lewk> hmm, my copy of Arora is a bit out of date too, 4.0 instead of 4.2 15:04 < TheStorm> Benryve yeah I noticed the similarity 15:04 <@benryves> Can you put the address bar in the correct place in Firefox? Something that bothers me with IE too. :( 15:04 * sir_lewk quick pulls arora from git :) 15:05 <+T2> I also noticed by default on 3.1b2 of FF that the tab bar is visible with only one tab open 15:05 <@benryves> T2: Oh, thank goodness they fixed that. :D 15:05 <+T2> Meaning more unnecessary browsing space being peeled away from me 15:06 <+Netham46> get a bigger screen. 15:06 * benryves dislikes the inconsistent now-you-see-it-now-you-don't default of hiding the tab bar in Firefox. 15:06 <+T2> I have a bigger screen 15:06 * Netham46 dislikes Firefox. 15:07 -!- tifreak [DanielThor@1Cust1507.an3.ind20.da.uu.net] has joined #tcpa 15:07 < TheStorm> I agree with benryves on that one 15:08 < tifreak> 'lo gents 15:08 < i_c-Y> benryves: solution: use opera 15:08 <@benryves> i_c-Y: I do use Opera, and consider it the pinnacle of good UI design. 15:08 < i_c-Y> have friends that dont use opera? 15:09 < i_c-Y> well, maybe they shouldnt be your 'friends' anymore. 15:09 <@benryves> Heh, I only use Firefox to test websites in. 15:09 < i_c-Y> pssh 15:09 < i_c-Y> you gotta test IE (well theres ietab for that) and opera and safari and opera 15:09 < i_c-Y> you have to assume superior people will come to your website 15:09 < i_c-Y> hence the need to test opera. 15:10 <@benryves> Meh, I develop everything in Opera first, tweak for IE, then (if I'm feeling generous) test in Firefox. 15:10 <@benryves> Usually if it's works in Opera and IE it should also work in Firefox, though. 15:11 <+Netham46> !t Welcome to TCPA | http://tcpa.calcg.org | http://www.junemann.nl/maxcoderz/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=2736 | 4 days 15:11 -!- efneTI86 changed the topic of #tcpa to: Welcome to TCPA | http://tcpa.calcg.org | http://www.junemann.nl/maxcoderz/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=2736 | 4 days 15:11 <@benryves> Four days?

However, Windows should still let you use LPT1: or something for that though :P 15:57 <@Andy_J> just hope your RNG doesn't suck :) 15:58 <@benryves> mokomull: As far as I know there is no practical way under desktop Windows to enumerate parallel ports. 15:58 <@mokomull> hm, sir_lewk ... I seemed to have missed the word "random" ... Andy_J's way seems relatively reasonable 15:58 < sir_lewk> I was thinking about looping down the vector of nodes, connecting them to one other random node. each pass would half the chance of a connection being formed bewteen any two nodes 15:58 <@mokomull> Pick two random nodes, make an edge 15:59 <@mokomull> It may be hard to guarantee that the graph is well-connected, but ... 15:59 <@Andy_J> the problem is if your RNG sucks you might never make a link to a node 15:59 <@Andy_J> and you just got yourself O(oo) 16:00 <@mokomull> Andy_J: ? 16:00 < sir_lewk> well the first pass would be a 100% chance of forming edges, next time %50, 25%, then so on for an finite number of times 16:00 <@E-J> Andy_J: and better would be O(O_o) 16:01 <@Andy_J> I think the percentages would be higher than that 16:01 < sir_lewk> I'll try implementing this, see what kinds of results I get. 16:05 <@mokomull> sir_lewk: Alternately, you could start with a complete graph, and take away nodes while checking that all nodes are still reachable 16:06 <@mokomull> take away edges* 16:06 < sir_lewk> oh, that's a really good idea 16:06 < sir_lewk> just some recursive fill routine could make sure that they are all still in one web 16:07 <@mokomull> I'm not saying "checking that all nodes are still reachable" is a very *cheap* operation 16:07 < sir_lewk> yeah 16:07 <@mokomull> On 75-100 nodes, it shouldn't be too bad. 16:08 <@Andy_J> or any BFS or DFS ... 16:08 < sir_lewk> well, this is only going to be done *once* when you start a new game, it'd be reasonibly to expect "generating a universe" to take a minute 16:08 < Nikky> here's some classic kofler right here: "Lionel's the ass who's forking my project" 16:08 <@Andy_J> ugh. 16:08 < sir_lewk> course you left out the rest of that statement ;) 16:09 <@Andy_J> He doesn't understand the point of forking, and that you can't prevent it on OSS -_- 16:09 <@Andy_J> sir_lewk: pft, who needs context 16:09 < Nikky> because it's not needed 16:09 < sir_lewk> "Lionel's the ass who's forking my project and wrongly accusing me of sabotage." 16:10 < Nikky> the last part isn't relevant 16:10 <@Andy_J> That doesn't make it any different, sir_lewk 16:10 < Nikky> exactly 16:10 < Nikky> http://tigcc.ticalc.org/gcc4tifaq.html 16:10 < Nikky> Classic! 16:10 < sir_lewk> sounds too me like the "ass" part is refering to the "wrongly accusing" part 16:10 < Nikky> "non-portability.
