Honestly? 06:41 <@BrandonW> The people who want to buy them but can't because they cost $50. 06:41 < JoeYoung> So? 06:42 < JoeYoung> We slander the program's reputation by saying how terrible it is and create a free alternative. 06:42 < JoeYoung> That's the best way to do things. 06:42 <@BrandonW> No one cares that much. 06:42 <@BrandonW> But they are willing to screw him over. 06:42 <@BrandonW> Because he screws us over. 06:42 < JoeYoung> If I had the skills I'd do exactly that JUST to screw him over. 06:43 <@BrandonW> That's the real motivation behind it. 06:43 <@BrandonW> It's a little bit immoral to charge half the cost of the calculator for a single application. 06:43 <@BrandonW> So I'll be a little immoral and crack it. 06:43 < JoeYoung> hold on. 06:44 < JoeYoung> how does the activation key thing work? 06:44 <@BrandonW> It's very complicated, but he generates a "zoom key" based on your calc ID. 06:44 < JoeYoung> so... 06:44 <@BrandonW> And then sends you a key that matches. 06:44 < tr1p1ea> are zoom licenses primarily aimed towards classroms? 06:44 < tr1p1ea> rooms* 06:44 < JoeYoung> maybe we could make a keygen? 06:45 < tr1p1ea> (as opposed to the individual) 06:45 <@BrandonW> I really fail to see how, because that would mean every single calculator (over 30) would need licenses. 06:45 <@BrandonW> JoeYoung, no one (not even me) understands the algorithm used to generate the zoom key thing. 06:45 <@BrandonW> It's insanely complicated. 06:45 < tr1p1ea> getting schools to buy licenses instead of the kids themselves 06:45 < JoeYoung> hahaha. 06:45 <@BrandonW> The quicker thing to do is brute force the key for one calc ID and then patch the application to think it's running on a calculator with that ID. 06:46 < JoeYoung> Well, I'm sure if anyone can crack it, you can, BrandonW :) 06:46 <@BrandonW> A flaw in this whole thing is that he MUST use _getCalcSerial to get the calc ID, which is easy to patch. 06:47 <@BrandonW> But anyway, it's designed really well. You can try to brute force a key, but it won't necessarily be correct. 06:47 <@BrandonW> He uses that key to make decisions later in the code. 06:47 <@BrandonW> So if you generate a false positive, the code can actually crash with certain features. 06:47 < JoeYoung> Wow. 06:47 <@BrandonW> Thus, you need to know what you're unlocking. 06:47 <@BrandonW> I know, it's freaking genius. 06:47 <@BrandonW> You can't fault the guy for trying to come up with something secure. 06:48 < JoeYoung> I... won't pretend to comprehend the meaning of what you are saying, but it sounds impressive. 06:48 <@BrandonW> It is impressive, you have to give him that. 06:49 < JoeYoung> So, when do we let this guy know that BrandonW's on the job? :P 06:49 < tr1p1ea> the app itself is nice 06:50 < tr1p1ea> but i do agree the price to be rather hefty 06:50 < JoeYoung> Same. 06:50 <@BrandonW> So I cracked Zoom Algebra / Zoom Math 100 by patching the application by hand in the flash debugger to go in an infinite loop until it generated a potential key, and then try a patched subroutine (for one of the advanced features) to see if it would run successfully and thus we really found a good key. 06:50 <@BrandonW> And then once I got that, I patched the application to match that calc ID. 06:50 <@BrandonW> It took forever to figure that out. 06:50 <@BrandonW> I'm not too eager to do it again. 06:50 < JoeYoung> Hell, he might turn more profit by pricing it at 5 dollars. 06:51 < tr1p1ea> can you make flashdebugger run at greater than 100% emulation speed? 06:51 < tr1p1ea> (like PTI) 06:51 <@BrandonW> No. 06:51 < tr1p1ea> ugh 06:51 <@BrandonW> I "cracked" Zoom Math 200 by taking advantage of some "deal" he coded into it to unlock if you had already "bought" Zoom Math 100. 06:51 < JoeYoung> son of a bitch! 06:51 <@BrandonW> So I didn't really have to do anything for Zoom Math 200. 06:51 < JoeYoung> it's more expensive than I had thought! 06:52 <@BrandonW> I started disassembling Zoom Math 300 but I never got anywhere with it. 06:52 <@BrandonW> I did find the call to _getCalcSerial, so if someone wants to buy it and send me the serial/key combination... 06:53 < JoeYoung> at 70 dollars?! 06:53 < JoeYoung> I might contribute toward that... but there is no way I can afford to buy that thing. 06:54 < millinao> jesus, it can't be worth 70 dollars whatever it is 06:54 <@BrandonW> And the reason I'm discussing this here and not #ti is because of the legality of it. 06:54 < JoeYoung> I'm gonna being pulling out student loans as it is in the near future, and that's WITH the full ride scholarship! 06:55 <@BrandonW> He does offer all sorts of discounts and he might even have a "site license" concept, but it would have to be heavily enforced. 06:55 <@BrandonW> If it ever got out, he'd be screwed. 06:55 <@BrandonW> Because it obviously can't be based on the calc ID. 06:56 < millinao> brandonw: what makes here better for discussing things of questionable legality 06:57 <@BrandonW> I don't want to spoil the mood in #ti. 06:57 < JoeYoung> haha 06:57 < JoeYoung> I'm looking at the About Us page 06:57 <@BrandonW> Not so much legality but morality. 06:57 < JoeYoung> it's got a little third-world boy pointing at Africa. 06:58 <@BrandonW> If you do enough reading, you can gather it's a company of like three people. 06:58 <@BrandonW> The coder, his brother, and some woman. 06:58 <@BrandonW> Or cousin or something. 06:58 < JoeYoung> yeah, i did gather that. 06:59 < JoeYoung> I'm still wondering how they justify $70 dollars. 06:59 <@BrandonW> I've been following it since the page was awful HTML frame garbage. 06:59 < JoeYoung> It makes me wonder how well it actually sells. 06:59 < tr1p1ea> hah i remember their old page 06:59 <@BrandonW> Another approach would be to hack their site and get access to that page that generates the key. 07:00 <@BrandonW> But I'm not too psyched about that one. 07:00 < Genolo> where was this site linked 07:00 <@BrandonW> It was always http://www.zoommath.com/ 07:00 <@BrandonW> It's never linked anywhere. 07:00 <@BrandonW> And not on ticalc.org. 07:00 < i_c-Y> you're ruining a man's livelihood! 07:01 <@BrandonW> They have a deal with TI...App4Math is on new calculators. 07:01 < JoeYoung> BrandonW.... I know a guy that knows a guy.... 07:01 <@BrandonW> Maybe if he'd been a little more reasonable on the price, I wouldn't have to. 07:01 < Genolo> i know a guy who can hack sites 07:01 < Genolo> he's broken a lot of sites 07:01 <@BrandonW> Honestly, tell me you'd buy $100 for the 83+ and and then $70 more for an application. 07:01 < i_c-Y> BrandonW: are you going to start bombing groccery stores when they start selling milk for 3.50 instead of 3.49? 07:02 <@BrandonW> I just might. 07:02 <@BrandonW> you'd spend* 07:02 < i_c-Y> why would anyone buy a 83+ when they could get a HP 50G? 07:02 <@BrandonW> Or an 89, which has a CAS. 07:02 <@BrandonW> And $20 less. 07:02 <@BrandonW> For more stable functionality. 07:02 < Genolo> why do you want this app 07:02 < i_c-Y> to get an unfair advantage on the ACT? 07:02 < JoeYoung> I don't know a guy who can hack sites, but the site owner, a guy I know, does. He's some dick schoolmate of his that fucks with our blog every few weeks or so. 07:03 <@BrandonW> I don't want the application. 07:03 < Genolo> then what are you trying to do? 07:03 < Genolo> crack it and blackmail the dude with it? 07:03 <@BrandonW> I don't want to blackmail the guy. 07:03 <@BrandonW> I don't care if he ever knows about it. 07:03 <@BrandonW> And I don't advertise the crack. 07:03 <@BrandonW> I just want it to exist. 07:03 < JoeYoung> Does it matter? stfu Genolo and explain your headless motorcycle faeries. 07:04 < DSP_Lord> what are you going on about, BrandonW? 07:04 <@BrandonW> Cracking Zoom Math applications. 07:04 < Genolo> JoeYoung: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durarara!! 07:04 < DSP_Lord> i presume said applications cost money? 07:04 < Genolo> see first character in list of characters 07:04 <@BrandonW> They cost $70. 07:04 < DSP_Lord> O_O 07:04 < Randomist> That's rape! 07:04 < DSP_Lord> that's not rape. 07:05 < DSP_Lord> that's complete and utter molestation of the soul. 07:05 < JoeYoung> Publisher Square Enix 07:05 <@BrandonW> It goes as low as $20, but if you want all the features, it's $70. 07:05 < DSP_Lord> shit man, what does it do that could possibly be worth $70. 07:05 < JoeYoung> Makes sense now. They're like the only non-ero company that can get by with weird stuff like that. 07:05 < Genolo> does the test for you 07:05 < Genolo> guarntees 100% 07:06 <@BrandonW> You would think it'd be a full-on CAS, but no. 07:06 < Genolo> i wouldn't pay money for that because it's against my morals to cheat academically 07:06 < DSP_Lord> psh 07:06 < Genolo> i'd rather fail with my own power than pass with someone elses 07:06 < DSP_Lord> why would i pay $70 for a program that does shit for me when i can program my own for free. 07:07 < Randomist> DSP_Lord++ 07:07 <@BrandonW> This guy is using cursor hooks, so I know he reads our documentation. 07:07 < DSP_Lord> clearly that's practical application of knowledge. 07:07 <@BrandonW> TI wouldn't give him that. 07:07 <@BrandonW> I also know he's not a community member, because his coding style is nothing like ours. 07:07 <@BrandonW> There's a lot of OS stuff he doesn't use. 07:07 < Genolo> what does this app do 07:07 < DSP_Lord> ohi millinao >_> 07:07 < millinao> ohi 07:07 <@BrandonW> http://zoommath.com/Products/ZoomMath300.php 07:08 < Randomist> Pretty much what a TI-89 could do for free. 07:08 <@BrandonW> It can solve some Algebra 2 problems for you in steps. 07:08 < Genolo> whatever happened to doing that kind of stuff on paper 07:08 < DSP_Lord> that... looks stupid. 07:08 <@BrandonW> It does far less than what an 89 does. 07:08 < DSP_Lord> STUPID 07:08 <@BrandonW> He codes very defensively, and does really scary stack stuff. 07:09 < DSP_Lord> i could probably do all that shit in my sleep. 07:09 <@BrandonW> It had an early reputation for being unstable, but it's very well-developed. 07:10 <@BrandonW> http://zoommath.com/Products/CompatibleCalcs.php He advertises the Nspire's 84+SE emulator. 07:10 < Genolo> and it's going to come with calcs? 07:10 <@BrandonW> I still have no idea how the calc ID is generated on the Nspire's 84+SE emulator. 07:10 <@BrandonW> I should dig into that. 07:10 <@BrandonW> Calculators come with App4Math, which is the free version of Zoom Math 100 I think. 07:10 <@BrandonW> He usually has 3 versions of everything. 07:11 <@BrandonW> Free, Basic, and Advanced if I remember correctly. 07:11 <@BrandonW> Advanced costing $50-$70 typically. 07:11 < Randomist> Sounds like a certain OS.. 07:11 < Genolo> quick let's make clones of them 07:11 <@BrandonW> This is the genius of it, you can get every single free version from the web site right now. 07:11 <@BrandonW> You get the higher versions through registration keys. 07:11 <@BrandonW> All the functionality is already in the free version. 07:11 <@BrandonW> You just have to unlock it. 07:11 < Randomist> Interesting. 07:12 < Genolo> i'm playing 2 letter words in scrabble 07:12 <@BrandonW> Which is the smartest way to protect against cracks. 07:12 <@BrandonW> And it upsets me that he knows this. 07:13 -!- rcfreak0 [~rcfreak0@68-114-233-240.dhcp.fdul.wi.charter.com] has quit [Leaving] 07:13 < Randomist> Doesn't the app need to be de-crypted? 07:13 <@BrandonW> I thought it was just $50...if he hadn't increased it to $70, I just might've bought it once. 07:13 < JoeYoung> He's the Moriarty to our Holmes! 07:14 <@BrandonW> The application is not encrypted. 07:14 < Randomist> Ah. 07:14 <@BrandonW> The strength lies in the inability to reverse-engineer the algorithm he uses to go from calc ID -> zCode -> registration key. 07:14 <@BrandonW> I have no fucking idea how it works. 07:14 <@BrandonW> I've studied it at length. 07:14 <@BrandonW> I give up on that approach. 07:14 < Genolo> and you're doing this just so a crack exists? 07:14 <@BrandonW> Yes. 07:15 < Genolo> what's the point if you don't distrubute it 07:15 < Genolo> just to be superior? 07:15 <@nikky> to prove that BrandonW is superior 07:15 < DSP_Lord> it's what BrandonW does. 07:15 <@BrandonW> Because we can. 07:15 < Randomist> Can't get some registration keys from some people that've bought it and change the calc ID or something liek that? 07:15 < Randomist> "Like," even? 07:15 <@BrandonW> How can something be designed this well and you just let it sit? 07:15 <@BrandonW> Randomist, yes, that would be heaven. 07:15 <@BrandonW> Know anyone that bought it? 07:15 < Randomist> Good point. 07:16 < Randomist> Also, I thought someone was working on their own ZoomMath-like app, except free. 07:17 < Jonimus> Randomist: well symbolic+Omnicalc+prettypt can get fairly close to his simpler apps if you add in some TI-basic 07:17 < JoeYoung> See, Randomist, I think that is what we SHOULD do. 07:18 < Genolo> i would do it if i wasn't a dumbass 07:18 < Jonimus> JoeYoung: get to it then 07:18 < n00b450> BrandonW: sorry for bringing up the 50$ earlier, if that bothers you 07:18 <@BrandonW> I would imagine the actual code to duplicate the functionality is relatively minimal. 07:18 < JoeYoung> If someone procures a competent clone of the software, it can get advertised on ticalc like crazy and decimate this guy. 07:18 -!- KermM [~KermM@cpe-66-65-60-191.nyc.res.rr.com] has quit [Ping timeout: no data for 484 seconds] 07:18 <@BrandonW> n00b450, it doesn't bother me. 07:19 < Genolo> personally i think we should decimate anyone who charges for calculator programs 07:19 <@BrandonW> This application is up to 3-4 pages now, you know. 07:19 < Genolo> goes against my morals 07:19 <@BrandonW> Yes. 07:19 <@BrandonW> That's one reason to do it. 07:20 <@nikky> www.calc-tech.org 07:20 < Randomist> Yuck.

I should work out a FUSE filesystem that could talk to the calculator. 10:20 < Randomist> Actually, wasn't there something in development to make the calc say to the OS, "Hey, I am so totally a generic storage device!" 10:20 < Randomist> [OS on the computer.] 10:21 <@BrandonW> Yeah, I was working on it, but with PC-side write caching and everything, it's just not possible. 10:22 < Randomist> Hm. I guess the FUSE option would be the next-to-best thing then, at least here. 10:24 < Randomist> Holy crap, it's already 0425! 10:24 < Randomist> Time, stop going by so fast! 10:27 <@BrandonW> I have no experience at all with FUSE. 10:27 <@BrandonW> I only know what I just googled. 10:27 <@BrandonW> Would it let you translate between the calculator VAT and whatever it expects? 10:28 < Randomist> It can do whatever you want it to do that you can make look like a filesystem. 10:28 <@BrandonW> So get on it! 10:30 < debrouxl> Yes, it should be possible to let you interact with the calculator VAT as if it were a regular filesystem. 10:30 < debrouxl> For example, I already used a pre-made FUSE for OneWire devices, several years ago. 10:30 <@BrandonW> That sounds like something worth implementing. 10:31 < debrouxl> It's not portable. 10:32 < debrouxl> Especially, there doesn't seem to be a real FUSE port for Windows. 10:32 <@BrandonW> I wouldn't expect it to be used on Windows, ever. 10:33 < Randomist> Yah, they've got a driver for this already. We don't. 10:34 <@BrandonW> What do you mean? 10:34 <@BrandonW> All we have is TI Connect/Graph Link or TiLP. 10:35 < Randomist> But wai-- 10:35 < Randomist> Oh, right. The whole write-caching thing. 10:35 <@BrandonW> If it did actually work, it would also have worked on Linux. 10:35 <@BrandonW> That was the beauty of it. 10:35 <@BrandonW> It would've been FAT16. 10:36 <@BrandonW> We absolutely can expose it as an unformatted USB storage device, the problem is translating it to a standard filesystem. 10:37 <@BrandonW> periph8x would've translated between the calculator VAT and FAT16, by analyzing what sectors the PC was modifying and figuring out what to do to the VAT based on that. 10:37 < Randomist> Wait... I thought there was another one, too. It was just a driver that just made a virtual filesystem and translated from the calc and back. 10:37 <@BrandonW> And keeping track of FAT/sector changes. 10:37 < Randomist> No on-calc driver. 10:37 <@BrandonW> I wouldn't know about anything PC-side that talked to the calculator through TI's link protocol. 10:38 < Randomist> I swear I saw screenshots of it before. 10:38 < Randomist> Maybe I'm just sleepy and my mind is generating things. 10:39 <@BrandonW> I had screenshots of mine a while back. I can still make read-only support happen, it's just the write caching that prevents it from being 100% both ways. 10:39 <@BrandonW> It would let you hook your calculator up to any PC (or even mobile devices) and get variables off it. 10:39 <@BrandonW> So it's halfway useful. 10:39 <@BrandonW> I had that translation mostly done. 10:40 < Randomist> It wouldn't even work to just have users tell Windows to not write-cache on that device? 10:40 <@BrandonW> It would expose two FAT16 folders, RAM and Flash, and show you 8XPs representing each variable oncalc. 10:40 <@BrandonW> Possibly, but I'm not sure it can even be turned off (I know there's an option for it, but I think turning that off I was still seeing unusual things). 10:40 <@BrandonW> It would need to keep refreshing and asking me what memory actually looks like, not being smart at all. 10:42 <@BrandonW> If I delete an 8XP on the PC, it assumes it's successful and doesn't query the drive again. 10:42 -!- Buckeye [~Poweruser@c-24-16-240-132.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #tcpa 10:42 <@BrandonW> Which is smart, but it's bad for me. 10:42 <@BrandonW> I even thought of exposing a text file in the root directory that you could keep modifying to send pseudo-commands to periph8x and stuff. 10:43 <@BrandonW> It's just too insane. 10:43 <@BrandonW> (commands to delete variables and all) 10:43 <@BrandonW> I also thought about triggering a plug/unplug whenever things got out of sync. 10:43 <@BrandonW> But there's just too much potential for failure. 10:44 < Randomist> If there was a fast way to do it, I'd have suggest, maybe, keep an image of what's been changed and added, then just write all the changes back when the user unmounts the device.' 10:45 <@BrandonW> I don't think there's enough memory for all that. As it is, I was using all 8 RAM pages to keep an image of the FAT and what sectors went to which variables. 10:45 <@BrandonW> And a "reverse FAT", so I could backtrack what variable I needed to mess with oncalc when it requested a specific sector. 10:46 <@BrandonW> So when it went to request a sector, I had to translate which block of memory it actually cared about based on the 8XP header and all, and then work backwards to figure out the starting sector for that file, and then find the variable it went with. 10:46 <@BrandonW> The code for it was just ridiculous. 10:47 <@BrandonW> There was some sort of bug I was trying to work out, but I had enough of it written that you could copy an 8XP off the "drive" and get a program's actual contents. 10:47 <@BrandonW> An 8XK would've been even more of a nightmare. 10:47 <@BrandonW> Since it's Intel Hex. 10:48 <@BrandonW> But as crazy as it is, it would've been somewhat reliable if it was read-only. 10:51 <@BrandonW> I don't think Windows even liked a 2MB FAT16 drive. 10:51 <@BrandonW> I think I had to extend it to 32MB and pretend the rest was in use. 10:51 < Randomist> I think the minimal is, like, sixteeen or something. 10:52 < Randomist> Actually, I'm sure it was sixteen. 10:57 < Randomist> Hm, well, now, I have something to think about working on.

Generally our floors are fully connected on each level. 22:39 < asmand> -> sleep 22:39 <@chronomex> oh so they're like different buildings 22:39 < asmand> nope 22:41 < Dan_E> Sounds like they're different wings of the same building, that just aren't connected on each level. 22:41 < Dan_E> Actually, come to think of it, "wing" is probably the best English I can think of for that. 22:42 < asmand> sounds good 22:42 <@E-J> Dan_E: it looks like this http://www.bing.com/maps/default.aspx?v=2&cp=v0vzzjk20pfw&scene=11652005&lvl=2&sty=b 22:43 <@E-J> every 'stair' has its own door 22:43 < asmand> like this one for instance http://img.cromet.fi/itemimages/realty/original/209.12610/141_1305770_img102945.jpg 22:43 <@E-J> asmand 22:43 <@E-J> s picture is little better 22:44 < asmand> in the photo I linked, you (probably) have the address Somestreet 5 A1 22:44 < Dan_E> Yeah, we would probably call them separate "buildings", even though they're the physically right next to each other. 22:44 < asmand> or then Somestreet 5 B10 22:45 <@E-J> i just wanted to show beautiful sites around my home :) actually there is 2 meter high snowfrift about there where those red and white car are 22:45 < Dan_E> Yeah, 243 Some Street Building B #10 22:45 < Dan_E> Or 5 Some Street Building B #10 I suppose. 22:47 < Dan_E> But, especially in newer cities, they might each have their own street address. 22:47 <@chronomex> Dan_E: we might call them "tower A" and "tower B" for example 22:47 <@E-J> americans and their weird ways of using every thing which has numbers in them 22:48 <@chronomex> pfft, our system makes sense! 22:48 <@E-J> like date 22:48 <@chronomex> yeah well americans do dates wrong 22:48 <@E-J> 10/12/10 22:48 <@chronomex> 2010-01-31. 22:48 <@E-J> for me that looks like 10th of december 22:48 < Dan_E> I usually just write Jan 31, 2010 so there 22:48 < Dan_E> 's no confusion. 22:49 <@E-J> well in bigger numbers there isn't confusions 22:49 < Dan_E> Yes, but today is Jan 31st, so I used that as the example :) 22:49 <@E-J> but like now it is 1.2.2010 written how finns it do 22:50 <@E-J> day changed here 50 minutes ago 22:50 <@chronomex> I write them year-month-day so they sort properly 22:50 < Jonimus> lol nice chronomex 22:50 < Dan_E> chronomex: Using 01 instead of just 1? 22:51 <@chronomex> always. 22:51 < Jonimus> chronomex: did you get my links earlier? 22:51 < Dan_E> Too hard to read for me. I don't like leading zeros. 22:51 <@E-J> when sorting i also do yyyy-mm-dd but when writing real things it is (d)d.(m)m.yyyy 22:51 <@chronomex> Jonimus: maybe, what channel? 22:52 < Jonimus> #ti 22:52 <@chronomex> no but I see it now 22:57 < Dan_E> I don't suppose we have any math teachers in here, do we? 22:58 <+ports-> ? 22:59 <@BrandonW> You might have a shot at it in #ti. 22:59 < Dan_E> Are the same people not here and there more or less? 23:00 < Dan_E> I just need to find a moderately technologically savvy math teacher who wants to do some software testing. Sadly most of the teachers I manage are not so tech-savvy. 23:01 <@BrandonW> More or less are the key words. 23:01 < Dan_E> I see. Well I'll follow the rules and not spam #ti, because it's not really calculator related. 23:02 < Jonimus> Dan_E: well what is the software for, I am going to have to do some math tutoring for one of my classes so I soft of apply 23:03 < Dan_E> It's for generating tests and worksheets. 23:03 <@E-J> wasn't tahben teacher in some part of her life? 23:03 < Jonimus> oh nice 23:04 < Dan_E> Jonimus: http://www.teacheasier.com 23:04 < Jonimus> Dan_E: did you make that? 23:05 < Dan_E> Yes. 23:05 < Dan_E> Still working on it, but getting close to the point where I need some testing. 23:05 < Jonimus> it looks very well done, and pretty user friendly 23:06 <@BrandonW> That looks a million times better than the last time I saw it. 23:06 < Dan_E> Brandon: Yeah, I decided it was time to make the interface suck a little less. 23:07 <+ports-> Dan_E, thats really nice dude 23:07 <@E-J> Dan_E: can i paste that to #other_channel, i know one teacher who teaches classes 1 to 6 (ages 7 to 13) 23:07 < Dan_E> ports: Thanks. 23:08 < Dan_E> E-J: Sure. 23:09 <@E-J> though that's in english, so there is minor disadvandage for her 23:11 < Dan_E> Yes, my Finnish is fairly rusty. 23:12 <@E-J> well, maybe it will be translated in future 23:13 <@E-J> if and when it will be success 23:14 < Dan_E> Only time will tell. 23:14 -!- krisk [~krisk@j239072.upc-j.chello.nl] has quit [] 23:21 -!- KermEEE [~KermM@cpe-66-65-60-191.nyc.res.rr.com] has joined #tcpa 23:21 < efneTI92> [KermEEE] http://www.cemetech.net :: Leading The Way to the Future 23:30 <@E-J> http://vimeo.com/3156959 23:34 < JoeYoung> you know, I remember how the trial for the owners of TPB was like a big deal way back when. 23:34 < JoeYoung> People were determined to shut that site down, yet here we are and it's still pretty damn active. 23:35 <@E-J> their tracker has died iirc 23:36 -!- Barrett [~Barrett@75-165-243-31.slkc.qwest.net] has joined #tcpa 23:36 < Goplat> it's still up, I used a TPB torrent yesterday 23:38 < j-b-r> I haven't used it in a while because I know better now 23:38 <@chronomex> Goplat: they serve up DHT only 23:38 <@chronomex> iirc 23:38 < j-b-r> But yeah, I was all upset when I thought it was going down for good, and went around begging for a demonoid invite etc. 23:39 -!- j-b-r [~j-b-r@c-98-192-239-74.hsd1.de.comcast.net] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 23:39 -!- j-b-r [~j-b-r@c-98-192-239-74.hsd1.de.comcast.net] has joined #tcpa 23:44 < Genolo> http://zs1.smbc-comics.com/comics/20100128.gif 23:44 < Genolo> so true 23:58 -!- incubus [incubus__@c-98-199-128-21.hsd1.tx.comcast.net] has joined #tcpa 23:58 < Jonimus> Genolo: well in college it does actually get harder as if you fail you have to pay to retake the class --- Log closed Mon Feb 01 00:00:54 2010
