Comments:
<0> You're welcome.
<1> Khisanth, by rereading the config file for instance where I indicate which files should be included..
<2> quinlan: exactly like jar jar
<3> Wesley was like 1% of Jar Jar
<0> peterS: Well, I was referring to slash, I'm not sure it really works as fan fiction..
<2> well, not *exactly*. it's a different degree of hatred, to be sure.
<0> I have to admit, I'm rapidly growing to hate wesley
<3> I'd have rather had Wesley hop universes and time, become a Jedi, and tag along all 3 episodes than have seen 5 minutes of Jar Jar
<4> the first internet porn I ever saw was a quicktime mov of crusher's head on some chick's body rubbing her tits. probably 1995
<1> Khisanth, i try to make something like modules, but i don't know exactly where to start from..
<5> ongeboren: you do realize the opposite of require would have to remove code
<0> jpeg: You're a freka.
<0> FREAK
<5> perldoc perlmod!
<6> The perldoc for perlmod - Perl modules: how they work is at http://perldoc.perl.org/perlmod.html
<3> perldoc - f pack
<5> perlnewmod too
<3> perldoc -f pack
<2> jar jar doesn't have a Clever Nick Name
<6> The perldoc for pack - is at http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/pack.html
<3> awww, I want it to print out the entire page
<3> I tried to pick a long one ;-)
<0> peterS: What is Clever Nick Name?
<5> CNN?
<2> buu: http://slashdot.org/~CleverNickName
<0> Oh right.
<0> He uses wil on fark as I can recall
<0> Woohoo, they found another nasa probe
<2> could be, I have no idea
<0> ****ing nasa, polluting the universe
<0> And why the **** can troi read data's mind/emotions.etc
<3> buu: I love how they find NASA problems many light years from earth all thr time
<0> yeah
<0> Well, it has been 400 years
<2> what's the odds of finding a NASA probe in the amount of space it could have travelled between launch and any Star Trek series?
<2> those probes probably don't have warp drive, but even so, that's kind of a lot of space
<0> peterS: Fairly good?
<3> voyager wasn't going to get another star for ... let me look it up
<0> If you ***ume that there's, say, 100 federation starships and each one can scan a light year..
<2> what do you mean a light year? that's linear, we're talking 3D space
<7> oh God
<0> peterS: Cubic light year
<7> are you guy's seriously discussing this?
<3> voyager: 80,000 to get to alpha centauri *if* it was headed that direction
<7> I know we're nerd's and all,
<0> YES bitch
<7> like, we're hanging out in #perl, but seriously,
<3> grey: you're on IRC, seriously
<7> ...
<0> It's 1200 on friday and you're on irc
<0> kthx
<7> :(
<3> grey: don't try and pretend you aren't a flaming nerd
<7> oh god
<7> the realization has come crashing down around me
<3> 80,000 years
<0> Woohoo
<8> This flaming nerd got his earlier this afternoon.
<0> quinlan: What does that have to do with *anything*
<0> ew73: Got your.. what.. medication?
<2> buu: those starships can scan a cubic light year? that's a frickin huge region. it would take, you know, 0.7 of a year for any EM radiation to get from a corner to the middle
<8> And now she's sitting on my bed with a laptop playing on a roleplaying MUSH.
<0> ew73: They're in a casino surrounded by methane storms. Identify!
<3> buu: well, in 200 years they manage to get swallowed by space whales or whatever and turn into evil robots according to star trek
<0> peterS: Dunno, they seem to manage it
<0> quinlan: Naw, we just find pieces
<2> buu: no doubt they just scan for little bumps in the space-time continuum
<0> I think they just scan the script, personally
<8> It's the one with the Hotel and the dead guy upstairs.
<3> star trek is actually pretty annoying, but watching it is like reliving childhood
<0> ew73: Yay!
<3> and it runs about 24 hours a day on spike and g4 nowadays
<0> I've never seen startrek =[
<0> So I'm enjoying it
<3> buu: where do you live?
<0> Chicago at the moment
<0> Hotel Royale!
<3> where did you live circa early 90s?
<0> I've forgotten
<0> ew73: I demand more explanaton!
<0> OH NOES
<0> THEY'RE PLAYING OMINOUS MUSIC
<0> What the hell is the range on that betazoid?
<3> buu: it's about 3 page of the script
<0> haha
<0> Data can do a one hand cut
<0> I wish I could
<9> explanaton?
<0> Of what?
<9> a new particle!!
<10> <phantomcircuit> Note to self: when searching kazaa for southpark episode "cartman gets an anal probe", be sure to include the keyword 'southpark'!!!
<10> hahaha
<9> hah
<0> That'll help
<9> that's on itunes music store for $2 i think
<8> buu: Troi's range is about as far as it needs to be to advance the plot. And yes, Data can do a one-hand cut. He rocks that way.
<0> ew73: Excellent and excellent.
<0> Does he do it frequently or something?
<0> fifty two stars!
<11> sigh.
<0> For example, picard never touches anything, he just talks
<8> buu: On occasion. There's a whole poker-playing-robot substory thing.
<2> *not* speaking of ST at all... does it bother anyone besides me when some SF universe has relentlessly anthropomorphic alien races?
<8> You gone dun 'en used a big werd.
<0> peterS: It depends. I'd prefer anthromorphic alien races to one dimensional non humans
<2> troo
<8> In Star Trek, they explain why it's so!
<9> there are tribbles
<0> ew73: Do they?
<2> ew73: true
<9> but they're kinda one-dimensional i guess
<8> buu: Yes! There's a 2-part episode.
<0> ew73: Where?
<2> buu: yeah, there's an episode that explains this genetic material getting all over the universe somehow
<0> Oh
<8> buu: I dunno, season 5 or so I think.
<2> so like we really do share a common ancestor with the klingons
<0> Well, that explains it
<0> peterS: Speaking *of* startrek I think they do a fairly job having having anthromorphic and non- alien races, although I'm not sure that's quite the correct words
<8> And Asimov explained why there were no sapient aliens spread across the universe in HIS universe. And David Brin doesn't have anthromorphic-everything.
<0> ew73: I've never read much asimov, what was his explanation?
<2> ew73: right, the *good* SF doesn't fall into this trap
<8> buu: Really ****ing awesome robots are responsible.
<0> peterS: Oh I'm not sure.
<0> ew73: They pwn the sapient races?
<8> buu: No, they collapsed quantum probablity into a reality that had enough room for humanity to expand unhindered.
<0> peterS: One could argue that a truly alien race would be completely inscrutable
<2> I don't so much mind the universes where things-that-look-just-like-humans never run into real humans from the real Earth
<0> ew73: Er, what?
<2> like Star Wars, they at least don't suggest that we and they coexist
<8> buu: It's Asimov, that's the proper response.
<0> Excellent.
<0> peterS: Yeah, but truly alien races are rather boring
<3> David Brin does a good job with it
<12> buu: 'cause you have no idea what they're saying for one.
<2> buu: they don't have to be, Asimov (again) wrote a few interesting stories exploring very-non-human aliens
<0> I love all the texan stereotypes
<2> "Green Patches" is a favorite of mine
<2> although it strains credibility in other ways
<3> peterS: The Gods Themselves
<2> quinlan: yeah I was thinking of that one too
<8> David Brin really does do a great job. I'm reading the Uplift trilogies right now and I can actually empathize with a stack of farting waxy rings.
<2> quinlan: but I'm not sure how easy it would be to make that into a show or movie, those aliens are just too different
<3> Brin does a slightly better job in uplift, agreed
<3> peterS: it's not easy to make anything into a good show or movie
<0> Yay texans!
<0> ew73: Really?
<8> Really.
<2> you know, SW is properly fantasy, as opposed to SF, since there is nothing in it from our future
<0> Fascinating.
<0> peterS: Sure.
