01:58.38 Twingy all state is a rip off
01:58.42 Twingy they want $70/mo more than geico for the same thing
02:02.56 brlcad all hail the gecko
02:03.20 brlcad (i.e. throw the lizard as far as possible)
02:03.38 Twingy you fix those bugs yet? :)
02:17.56 brlcad what bugs? the librt thing?
02:18.57 brlcad that's been in there since I first compiled on freebsd amd64 iirc, looked entirely like a bug in gcc's optimizer or the threading library
02:19.10 Twingy hrm
02:19.33 brlcad if you walk through it in gdb, the stack just goes "poof" mid computation (if you can keep gdb from crashing itself)
02:19.47 brlcad i never got to try a different threading library
02:20.47 brlcad there was a thread on the freebsd bugs mailing list about a threading bug related to amd64 and crashes inside system libraries (which is where the stack was going poof, sprintf and similar funcs)
02:21.40 brlcad this was like 8-12 months ago when first got access to such a configuration iirc
02:23.24 brlcad gdb was almost useless, the only next step I can think of outside of trying different threading library would be to valgrind a simple raytrace and make sure the errors are cleaned up (which has never been done)
