<0> boredom is the only interesting thing in this plane of existance
<1> CentOS bundles mplayer-gui all together! cool!
<1> I had to do it manually with fedora
<0> they would never call a good thing 'fedora' ;)
<2> from my ancestor cl***
<1> good comeback
<3> what did yiu inherit?
<0> confer: 'nowell netware' ;)
<4> hi
<4> Rahly: alive?
<5> ello
<4> hi
<1> Team Canada is hot now!
<1> CANADA WINS GOLD AT 2007 IIHF WORLD JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP
<6> hola LordCrc
<4> Rahly: any tips to debugging other apps? got one that throws an error message, im trying to figure out what it tries to do right before that
<4> (i get "invalid cl***name", but no clue what cl*** it expects)
<6> what are you doing?
<6> writing a plugin? writing a front end?
<4> Rahly: trying to get this webcam app working
<4> somethings wrong with the puter
<4> program works on the other pc's
<4> but
<6> sounds like the cam isn't properly installed OR isn't recognized via USB
<6> i've had the same thing happen, invalid cl*** when the cam isn't plugged in
<4> well with my VfW app it works like a charmer
<4> so i dont think its the cam and/or driver
<4> just this app :/
<6> hmmmm
<6> maybe it accesses a specific type of cam?
<4> hmm
<4> aw **** it, im going to bed :)
<6> lol
<6> ok, ttyt
<4> l8r m8
<1> what was that retarted ms video interface they came out with, that reduced all but the most mundane features of cameras, video capture cards, etc?
<1> I have to stay away from any such drivers or it reduces my hauppauge card to nothing
<7> hi, quick question, is there a way of quickly copying an existing delphi form as a new form from the editor ?
<7> or wait, i'm a goddamn idiot, i can just save it as a new form... grrr
<1> that could work.
<1> the alternative is to highlight all controls, and Paste it on another form
<1> (or controls you need) I often do that
<1> of course, watch out for duplicated controls
<1> I always thought it would be useful to take a given form from a project, and make it a stand alone project.
<1> Sounds easier than it turns out to be
<0> add to repository?
<1> I haven't tried that.

<6> lol
<6> Squasige, poor you
<6> from the horses mouth -> http://www.consumerist.com/consumer/asinine/transcript-verizon-doesnt-know-how-to-count-220723.php
<9> anybody here ever use BI/Query from Hummingbird?
<6> not me
<1> red river subtext
<6> you can wade the red river, but don't drink of it
<1> http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040724/
<1> deeper than you'll ever know, da plot
<10> this verizon thing is funny
<6> Goodge, you should hear the other 3 accounts after the fact
<8> i think the service people are having problems saying what they see on paper
<8> like they think $0.002 should be said 0.002 cents
<8> cause the 2 is on the right hand side of the decimal point
<8> and not before the decimal point (i.e. dollars)
<11> does anyone have delphi 7?
<6> i'm sure someone does
<2> what caused the big bang?
<5> 2 fat pplz gettin it on
<2> logically, a finite thing must be caused by something that transcends the thing
<2> so something must transcend spacetime
<1> Daddy! Mommy! I'm home!
<2> have a snack and go watch TV
<1> chicken!
<1> I never realized how very "adult" many b/w westerns are...
<2> they have no shortages of prostitutes
<1> male and female kind ;)
<2> RadSurfer, what caused the singularity, why are we here?
<1> we are here to wait for what follows
<2> what about what has preceeded?
<1> and what follows will be influenced by how we lived, some believe
<2> but the universe began in a singularity - the origin of space and time
<1> that which was before the singularity is not to concern us too much
<2> but it is the ultimate concern!
<1> and not like we're going back to change it
<2> but it is the answer to all things
<1> we sometimes lose track, we are not the only universe out there
<1> we are among one of many.
<2> what is the evidence?
<1> it should be our goal to find a way to unite with them
<1> We exist to learn about the bigger picture of things!
<2> so you beleive in some force or reality that transcends the universe?
<1> the inventor of ramen noodles died
<2> i read that, never has one man done so much for so many
<2> he transcended the ramen noodles, the ramen noodles didn't come from nothing, it has a transcendant cause
<8> firstly
<8> why did the universe ever have to be "created"?
<8> secondly
<8> what's wrong with us being here for no reason at all?
<2> it had to be "caused"
<8> why?
<2> because it had a beginning
<8> did it?
<2> logically something that begins to exist has to be caused
<2> according to the big bang theory it did
<8> according to human logic yes
<8> do you think the universe conforms to human logic based on linear time and cause and effect?
<8> should we automatically ***ume it definitely does?
<2> I definately am down with the idea that human logic is finite
<2> but...
<2> is it more likely that the logic that something cannot come from nothing is flawed, or is more likely that it is correct, and there is a cause?
<5> .
<8> that is what we are trying to conclude based on a wealth of ignorance about things outside our perception
<2> well certainly the cause is not linear and hard to grasp...I mean time itself is a dimension of the universe, and the big bang says that time is finite in that it had a beginning, so the cause is non-linear, or timeless, beyond time
<8> cause and effect surely themselves are products of linear time
<1> anyone else read this book yet: Big Bang: The Origin of the Universe Simopn Singh 2004/2005.
<2> hmmmm....
<1> I'm on my 4th or 5th read :)
<2> well, I think our logic cannot grasp timelessness
<2> haven't read it rad
<1> sure it can. there's always an analogy... even for dumb humans
<2> what does it speculate on the cause of the big bang Rad?
<1> no knows "what" caused it; just that it is a fact it happened
<1> and that's all we need to know
<8> so if our logic cannot grasp timelessness surely asking the question "what caused the universe" is applying human attributes to things which we don't understand, just as the people of antiquity personified the sun and the moon?
<1> the need of the universe to not be alone, "caused" it
<2> I know of theories such as the cyclical universe (big bang-big crunch idea) or a multi-verse - which are pure speculations
<1> even a universe needs other universes as friends
<8> and what exactly is empty space?
<1> just wait when other races start moving into Sol
<8> i'd love to know
<1> space that is void
<8> cause I sure as hell dont
<2> I disagree with that analogy squasige...I think the idea that we can explain some things with advances in science doesn't mean that all things have material explainations
<1> "buffer" areas
<8> what is void
<1> interfaces between other spaces
<8> sure you can say a void has no atoms or molecules in it
<8> but thats just a circular argument
<1> if there was not "empty space" in atoms, consider this:
<8> its like saying whats energy? "the ability to do work". whats work? "the use of energy"
<1> how would electrons be able to fly around the nucleus?
<2> there was no space before the big bang, space and time began at the singularity
<1> what are these electrons flying "in" ?
<8> well it comes down to the whole michelson and morely thing doesnt it
<8> ether or no ether?
<1> actually, its aether
<8> people are starting now to come up with arguments suggesting an ether afterall
<2> meaning?
