13:05.21 starseeker hmm - the sf.net breakage seems to be more serious than usual this time...
13:08.34 ``Erik I kinda feel like sf jumped the shark years ago, the modified binaries scandal and outages seem... on par?
13:09.06 ``Erik wonders how big a darcs conversion would be O.o
13:12.16 ``Erik pines for the days of clean and svelte cvs checkouts :)

13:44.58 ``Erik this outage is insane, but it seems like there are frequent short outages *shrug*
13:45.23 ``Erik github has frequent outages as well, but git is still usable when github is gone :D

17:17.07 Izakey Hi gurwinder
17:17.24 gurwinder how are you?
17:17.31 Stragus Izakey, first step is figuring out what fails exactly
17:17.42 Stragus Did you reinstall libpng 1.2?
17:18.29 Izakey Updated and deleted libpng1.6
17:18.35 gurwinder Izakey: I want to tell you that I export 8 primitives till now. Sorry I didn't count the remaing 2 on that day.
17:18.50 Stragus If you type something like ldd /usr/bin/gimp | grep "png" what do you get?
17:19.01 Stragus (used gimp because I have no idea what WM you are running)
17:19.02 Izakey Which two are those gurwinder ?
17:19.28 gurwinder Izakey: Those two are sphere and cylender
17:19.43 gurwinder total 8 are exported
17:20.13 gurwinder Now am working on rhc, I am trying to make a macro.
17:20.30 Izakey That's the right direction gurwinder. Keep working.......

19:41.05 vasc it's called 'innovation'
19:41.16 vasc the art of selling things to people
19:41.36 vasc while making them think they are special
19:42.37 Notify 03BRL-CAD Wiki:Deekaysharma * 9037 /wiki/User:Deekaysharma/logs:
19:43.42 Stragus It's also a way to associate with a herd that reflects an arbitrary but desirable set of values
19:50.38 vasc it's something they are selling to the Tesla P85D model users
19:50.46 vasc which is like the most expensive model they sell
19:50.51 vasc so yeah its a ripoff
19:54.04 vasc they need the money to make all those capital investment into battery plants and whatnot
19:59.01 ``Erik it is pretty insane how capable the thing is, though... 3.1 0-60 is pretty batshit insane, 2.8 is ... yeh :D
19:59.45 vasc well its an electric. so you get max power right off the bat.
20:00.04 vasc its not like a combustion engine which needs to spool up
20:01.05 vasc it's probably more limited by the tires and the power system than anything else
20:01.07 ``Erik yeah, keeping the balance of applying torque vs static friction is the challenge for dc motors.. 2.8 is still pretty remarkable

23:44.51 starseeker the mailing list comments are the right place to start

23:47.56 starseeker (slashdot article)
23:48.18 vasc right

23:48.58 starseeker brlcad's right - this did happen once before some years back
23:49.22 vasc no dice from dice
23:50.24 starseeker new tweet in the last hour: https://twitter.com/sfnet_ops
23:52.17 vasc all i need to do the grid construction wholly on the gpu now is to compute the prefix sum there
23:53.48 vasc well it would be better if i had proper error handling as well...
23:54.03 vasc i'm just ignoring errors right now... pfeh
23:55.18 vasc also need to think of some other name for this file other than foobar... hmmm
23:55.33 starseeker yeah, foobar is too popular ;-)
