<0> psycology, eh?
<1> huh?
<1> lol
<2> then don't bother asking?
<0> "we probably won't be able to help"? to try and make us prove you wrong
<0> an inovotive effort, but not well judged
<1> well i have a DirectX Hook made for DirectX 9
<3> Asriel: He's right though. No clairvoyants here.
<1> but i dont know how to make the backspace button delete the last charactor the user typed in
<1> its a very noob question
<4> a "new programmer" playing with hooks to DX9....
<1> i have done a bit of VB
<1> but i did have source half made from another hook
<1> and i fitzed with ti
<1> it*
<3> Are there even any standard widget libraries for DX?
<0> as of 9, y es
<3> Neat. Never messed with it.
<1> GRRRR my guitarist just called me ... i g2g :(
<0> how widely used they are, I've no idea
<0> they're part of the "extensions" library
<1> ill just ask somewhere else
<1> cyas thanks ne way
<0> why, why would people type "ne" when "any" is just one more keystroke
<3> Wow. What a renaissance man.
<3> He plays guitar, and he can mostly read, too.
<4> Asriel, 'cuz it's l33t
<3> That's almost as annoying as "10x" for thanks. They don't even sounds the same.
<0> one of my big pet peaves, lazy abbrivations
<4> tnx for the phonics lesson, jbatista
<0> moreso than spelling mistakes, grammatical errors etc
<3> "sound" the same, rather. Yes, actually, more annoying than that.
<0> people *choosing* to deliberately do it. so very lazy
<0> sometimes, I have to rewrite the entire thing because proper English won't fit into 180 characters
<3> Flaunting ignorance is an affirmation of individuality. Don't you watch MTV?
<0> oh dear God no
<3> No wonder you aren't hip or rad, or whatever it's called.
<0> never have been, never will be
<0> just the way I likes it
<3> Or was it "groovy"?
<0> hohum. Exam at 14:00 tomorrow, in about the only subject I don't really understand
<0> I guess I should sleep to have some chance of p***ing
<0> may as well maximise what slim odds I have
<5> what subject?
<0> Statistics
<0> too much memorisation for me. if I can't work it out, I always struggle
<0> and there's way too many distributions/variations needed to actually work out more than one or two of them in the exam hall
<5> yeah lots of formulas
<3> I never took a good math cl***.
<3> Probably the worst taught subject of all.
<0> just worked out some methods of calculating the hypothesis test statistics from first principles in tractable time
<0> wish my details memory was better. wrote learn + me == null
<0> right, see you all tomorrow
<3> 'night.
<3> I remember struggling with algebra for years. Took a remedial course where they compressed everything into two semesters and it suddenly made sense, but only because they squeezed it into smell enough a space that I could remember it all at once.
<3> s/smell/small
<3> Freudian.
<3> Whatever. You didn't go to school in Wheaton, MD.
<3> Be cool, stay in school -- or drop out and learn something.
<6> yeah...
<6> learn that you need that paper to get yourself a good job :PO
<3> I'm fairly happy with the one I have, actually.
<3> JBlitzen: Let me put it this way. You probably never got suspended for smacking the crap out of someone in math cl***.
<3> Public school is pure malevolence.
<7> I went through public school
<7> And state college
<7> 110 community service hours later, here I am
<3> Wow. You must have maimed somebody to end up in the court system.
<3> Unless it was some sort lame unilateral school system thing.
<7> Fortunately neither one got to the legal system
<7> Just the school's
<3> Lame. They added like 60 hours of community service as a default graduation requirement for everyone. There's antoher reason I wouldn't have graduated anyway.
<7> Now that's just gaey
<7> People should earn community service requirements the right way, by beating the **** out of people and screwing up the email servers
<3> You had E-mail servers?
<7> School did
<3> Admins had a regional mainframe, or somesuch, but it was all internal.
<7> A misunderstanding about how SMTP works led me to elevate a small spam exchange between friends into something that crashed the mail servers for 26,000 students for several hours
<3> We got computer labs about two years before I left, but we weren't permitted to do much with the machines.
<8> hostel
<8> oops. wrong part of chat
<9> hmm
<9> just emerged a new portage and its running dog slow
<2> <-- not surprised
<3> "Portage"?
<9> gentoo's software package management system
<3> You like Gentoo better than Debian?
<9> a port of freebsd's ports
<9> well, a derivitive of
<9> i like it very much, although i like ubuntu too
<9> i've never run any other debian based distro other than ubuntu
<9> but i was very impressed with ubuntu's installation
<9> 6 wizard steps
<9> can't get easier than that
<2> could be 5
<9> though i've installe gentoo so many times it's second nature
<9> pfft
<9> 6 is the theoretical minimum
<3> Could be one, if you count booting.
<3> Though I guess it isn't really installed.
<3> Knoppix can be very handy for somet things.
<9> yeah
<9> i've got a few livecds just in case something goes wrong
<9> is knoppix debian based?
<3> I don't think so...
<9> hmm, looks like it
<9> so that's 2
<3> Debian isn't very user friendly.
<9> gentoo is
<9> people just get scared by no installer
<9> the installation process (essentially): boot live cd, fdisk, tar, chroot, emerge sync, emerge kernel sources, build kernel, install kernel, install grub, edit 4-5 config files, reboot
<9> give or take a few steps
<3> Neat.
<9> but past that, you just emerge <foo>, and it gets installed
<9> i usually emerge vim before i emerge the kernel
<9> so i don't have to use nano
<9> because that's what the livecd comes with
<9> mmm, making spaghetti and meatballs
<9> the italians know good food
<3> I have a Debian box that I use for development at work.
<3> Built it out of scrap parts so that I'm not bound by our customer's computing standards.
<9> hmm, looks like i need to roll back that portage update
<9> i get an exception when trying to do a deep update
<9> (the entire thing is written in python)
<9> we have a future work item to attempt to port some of our code to mono under linux
<9> i want that ***ignment
<9> at least i can have a linux box at work
<3> We're supposed to leave the OEM OS on all the leased machines, for licensing reasons, so I built a non-leased machine.
<9> buzzer
<2> bzzzz
<9> ****ers taking delight in the rape and murder of their child
<9> how dare they!
<3> Doesn't seem to occur to them that someone could dislike Bush for a good reason.
<9> i simply dislike him because he's clearly inferior to me
<9> i expect more from a president
<3> Like for his "religious initiatives", or wasting the lives of American soldiers on the service of a foreign country, or the fact that he's cripplingly inarticulate.
<9> exactly
<9> ann coulter's book title is enough to clearly demonstrate she's a wacko
<9> "Godless: The Church of Liberalism"
<9> i should write a book entilted "Godfearing: The Church of Mindless Conservatives"
<3> That's BS anyway. Clinton is religious.
<9> no, clearly he's godless
<9> kerry? the anti-christ
<9> i still have yet to vote in an election
<9> idiot #1 vs. idiot #2
<9> not much of a choice
<3> But Peterhu, how can they both be idiots if they're opposites? That's the one thing they both agree on, so it must be true.
<9> well, one was obviously the product of imbreeding, and the other was a putz to the nth degree
<9> ideology aside, we don't have much to work with
