<0> Yeah, save it until after SR2.
<1> yep
<0> I found defiance to have a more obnoxiously linear plot...
<1> the gameplay is pathetic, but the whole story is pure genius
<0> And I found the other LoK games to be unplayable.
<1> i'm just playing to know what happens :)
<0> Mmm... SR2 has one of those lines in it that just make the game.
<0> And I could tell you it without spoiling it for you.
<1> the tricks and puzzels are cool though
<1> nyef: can i pm you ?
<0> I don't know, can you?
<2> sorry but are you guys talking bout the game
<1> :D
<1> i think were hogging the channel :P
<0> Not like there's any -other- traffic in the channel.
<1> blackwolf: yes.
<2> what
<2> yea in what
<1> it's the game
<2> oh ok
<2> just making sure thats all
<1> hm..
<1> now that i think of it, it may be true. He is destined to be nosgoth's saviour. to save it he has to kill kain to restore the pillars right ?
<3> yawn
<3> what's up my people?
<3> another incredibly stressful day. yay!
<0> That conclusion does derive from those premises, yes.
<1> so he created a paradox
<0> You know, maybe we shouldn't discuss this yet.
<1> ok. I agree.
<0> At least not until... Umm... "ha sha gik" makes sense.
<2> bla bla
<0> That'll be a good part of the way through defiance.
<1> ok one final question. In what time do the lok: defiance events occur ?
<1> just so i know how the timeline looks
<0> There are two timelines for defiance, separated by about 400 years.
<1> i've this http://www.nosgoth.net/sr2/timeline.htm , but that doesn't include defiance
<0> ... This timeline is pre-SR2.
<1> It is, but it should explain the events you see in SR2.
<0> It's background, but not a full explanation.
<4> ive finished soul reaver 1 and
<4> 2
<4> but havent played with kain yet
<4> and i dont want:)
<4> hey dont me like that , im not the time streamer
<0> I'm just glad to know that one day, the time streamer's uppance does come.
<1> the timestreamer is the culprit of all the drama.
<1> Isn't he in a way immortal even though he's killed by kain ? he can exist anywhere at anytime
<0> Yeah, that gets explained later.
<5> so he's kinda like Chuck Norris?
<0> I'd comment, but it'd be too spoilery.
<6> so Kelly's Heros was fun
<6> and now we code (uh, read)
<6> duran(d) duran(d)?
<7> no(t) reall(y)
<6> o(k)
<7> :())
<6> ()
<8> (hmm)
<6> anyone got a recommandation for a decent PDF reader on linux? xPdf on Gnome is starting to annoy me.
<9> kpdf or evince
<9> never tried evince, but it should be the gnome-equivalent of kpdf
<6> I asked for something better than xpdf, not a list of PDF readers
<6> so if you haven't tried it... :)
<9> I use kpdf, and recommend it
<10> gr00ber, the "document reader" is quite nice. kdpf is also nice but a but slowish.
<10> the doc rdr is gnome's default, iirc. and better than the name suggests ;)
<6> k
<11> if i do stack-based task-switching and manage different address-spaces with different cr3s, where the hell do i get the 1:1 mapped memory for all the page-directorys and -tables?
<3> hmm? not sure I understand
<3> how do you access the page tables? that is a good question
<11> yeah :)
<3> there are a few different strategies
<3> one is to simply map all of physical memory into the kernel, and do a simple offset based access
<3> of course this only works up to a certain size, depending on how large your kernel space is
<3> linux does this for the first 896MB or so of physical ram on x86
<11> hm
<3> another is to have a 'window' in kernel space where you temporarily map physical pages as you need them. that's what I did for newos, and what lots of systems do (NT, etc)
<3> and of course you can do a combination of both (which is what linux does for ram > 896MB)
<3> obviously having a simple mapping is the most efficient, but having a on demand mapping scales up
<3> you can map much more than 32bits of physical address that way, for example
<3> there's also a fun trick where you point the page dir back at itself and it linearly maps all of the page tabes into a 4MB region of virtual space
<3> but that only works on the current set of page taables, and doesn't help solve the larger problem of accessing arbitrary physical pages, which does happen from time to time (copy on write, for example)
<11> hm, thank you,
<11> hehe, i guess i should sleep over that
<11> this whole memory management stuff starts driving me crazy ;)
<3> there's no simple direct way to do it, it's a complicated part of memory management
<12> in the ATA spec, do "current" and "previous" values mean i write the value it wants for "previous" first, then write the "current" value?
<3> no idea
<13> Correct me if I'm wrong, but there are (at least) 3 stacks I should be aware of: user stack, kernel stack, and a kernel stack for ISRs.
<3> generally the latter 2 are the same
<3> on x86 at least
<3> indeed
<3> you guys are a bucket of laughs I say
<12> ...?
<14> I take pride in that.
<15> I take pride in my keyboard ^_^
<3> entertain me
<15> why?
<16> Because here we are now.
<3> a mulatto
<15> hmm
<15> what?
<15> Ins't that..
<15> ...
<15> Yeah
<15> Who's a mulatto? XD
<3> an albino
<15> uhm
<3> a mosquito
<15> gezundheit !
<17> hello
<3> my libido
<17> i was once referred to as LinuxFreak for those that recall me
<15> naze ;_; ;_;
<3> yeah
<17> anyone active?
<18> no
<3> according to iank, no
<3> oh no, having a Dylan moment
<18> iank is always right
<19> Good morning. :-)
<3> morning Brainix
<19> What's going on in here?
<3> not much, I'm hackin for work
<20> yo geist - sup ?
<3> not much
<20> geist: is it possible to get a practical course term at apple ?
<19> r0nny: An internship?
<20> Brainix: yeah
<3> sure. apple has a big internship program
<3> I think we have about 300 of them right now
<19> geist: Have you ever met Woz or Steve Jobs or any of the other hot shots? :-)
<3> i see SJ all the time. I dont think Woz hangs out at Apple much, though I met him at a previous company. really fun guy
<20> i should learn some more english, and sign up next year
<19> geist: Has Steve Jobs ever unplugged your workstation or punched you? LoL!
<19> I've heard he has a legendary temper.
<3> heh thankfully no. but I see him at the cafeteria all the time
<3> and i've been to a few things in the auditorium
<3> he's just a regular looking dude. usually has jeans and a black shirt
<21> hello
<19> Greetings, ktne.
<21> hi Brainix
<20> hi ktne
<20> sup ?
<21> hi r0nny
<21> just learning some vim
<21> and looking for more info on text rendering in win32gdi :)
<19> ktne: Always a good investment in time. :-)
