01:50.22 ``Erik prepares some popcorn for the upcoming new futurama O.o
02:04.27 ``Erik heh, "eyephone" on futurama, nice
02:05.29 brlcad used http://www.futurama-stream.com/season-6 to get caught up
02:17.25 ``Erik *snrkt* iTeX
02:35.41 starseeker so it was a prank?
02:35.57 starseeker was wondering if all those stupid twitter messages were legit
02:38.24 starseeker ah, well
02:43.19 starseeker pity, but not too surprising - his web pages have made it pretty clear for years he's focused on the next book in the Art of Computer Programming series
03:22.07 ``Erik http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1886349 (matrix running windows)
06:08.37 *** join/#brlcad WhiteCalf (~Prez@2002:601f:5460::601f:5460)
06:42.33 starseeker wonders if explaining science to the public can be boiled down into "short, simple, correct - pick any two"

13:12.03 Alexandrus moin();
13:17.06 brlcad howdy Alexandrus
13:17.18 Alexandrus hello
13:23.01 Alexandrus i wonder...are thos vulnerability and lethality analysis tools part of the brl-cad i got here?
13:23.15 Alexandrus (pretty new to it)
13:33.38 ``Erik no, they use BRL-CAD, like the gimp uses gtk+
13:34.00 Alexandrus hmm...interesting
13:35.24 Alexandrus do you do any static/dynamic calculations with your models?
13:35.38 Alexandrus (FEM etc)
13:38.38 ``Erik not dynamic ones, the closest we do is things like solving weight, center of mass, how much area is visible from a certain orientation, etc
13:38.57 ``Erik though we can export to STL and if you have a qubit license, even that for FEM/FEA
13:39.27 Alexandrus hehehe, i do not have such licenses
13:39.29 ``Erik (we can export to a lot of formats, STL just seems to be one that the FEA guys like)
13:39.33 Alexandrus there is some open source fem around...
13:40.03 Alexandrus yes, i heard..
13:40.21 Alexandrus even the prototype producers love it, seems they dislike smooth data
13:40.56 ``Erik heh, I was just looking at http://www.caelinux.com/CMS/ the other day, mebbe it has some good links to follow :)
13:41.31 Alexandrus lol...
13:41.34 Alexandrus as a cd...
13:41.42 Alexandrus (ah dvd)
13:42.02 ``Erik fem's basically cut the geometry into a bunch of little nonoverlapping boxes all up against eachother and figure out boundry relationships between 'em, so planar stuff goes well for 'em
13:43.25 Alexandrus i know, but usually its more complicated
13:43.45 Alexandrus (size of boxes not equal)
13:44.28 Alexandrus ok, this was from finite volumes..

21:36.59 brlcad yeah, I think it is about time to restructure and overhaul the website
21:37.54 brlcad emphasizing our separate projects and products with segregated documentation so it's easier to navigate without getting lost in extraneous detail
22:04.45 starseeker ``Erik: tendra ebuild fails
22:04.49 ``Erik neat
22:10.17 starseeker or more specifically, pmake can't make sense of tendra's build logic (if I understand the errors correctly)
22:11.28 starseeker ah, wait, there's a newer pmake ebuild...
22:12.30 starseeker yep, there we go
22:13.57 starseeker O.o
22:14.00 starseeker /usr/bin/ld: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/lib/crt1.o' is incompatible with i386 output
22:14.43 starseeker is tendra i386 only?
22:14.43 ``Erik um, might be? I d'no
22:15.09 ``Erik it was A compiler that was pretty complete a while back *shrug*
22:17.20 starseeker not being 64 bit capable is a pretty serious limitation these days
22:17.57 ``Erik yeh
22:18.43 brlcad not likely that they're actually 64-bit incompatible
22:18.52 brlcad more likely is there's some build system foo needed
22:19.18 brlcad possible, just not likely -- that error doesn't indicate either way
22:19.39 ``Erik knows he has to adjust the makefiles by hand to mkae python build 64b, but it works fine once he does that
