00:28:00Zoomberclose though
00:28:00zoooooooomba is now known as zoomber_ibm
00:28:00sam686IRC bandwidth takes about 10 bytes a second, very small...
00:31:00Zoomberyeah, but thats each second
00:31:00Zoombereh
00:31:00Zoomber843.75 kilabytes inst much i suppose
00:31:00raptoryou should use firefox +adblock + flashblock
00:31:00Zoomberthough, theres also the text part
00:31:00raptorsave tons!
00:32:00Zoomberthanks raptor
00:32:00Zoomberi will put that on my list
00:32:00Zoomberthey told me i dont have a bandwidth cap right now
00:32:00Zoomberbut if i go over a 150 GB limit, it will activate next month
00:32:00raptormake sure you subscribe to all three of these adblock lists: http://www.fanboy.co.nz/
00:34:00sam686for me, all i do to block most ads is using this site: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm
00:35:00sam686it is just a text file to put in windows..
00:36:00raptorhaha, the hosts file
00:36:00raptorgood technique
00:37:00raptorgets messy quickly though
00:42:00zoomber_ibm Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
00:45:00raptorwow sam686, I'm tempted to use that hosts file
00:46:00raptorthat's great
00:46:00raptormuch faster than anything else
00:46:00raptorand stop things good...
00:48:00sam686yes, the good thing about hosts file is it doesn't matter what web browser you use..
00:49:00zoomber_ibm has joined
00:50:00raptorok, restarting network to make it take effect...

00:51:00Zoomberhi raptor
00:51:00raptorthis is awesome! fast browsing
00:51:00sam686good
00:52:00Zoomberwhat
00:52:00Zoomberwhat did you do?
00:52:00sam686i think raptor used the host file to block ads. http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm
00:52:00raptorZoomber: add this to your OS hosts file: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
00:53:00raptoron mac, it might be at /etc/hosts
00:53:00raptorand you need to be root to change it i think
00:54:00Zoomberthis does what?
00:54:00Zoomberoh, it blocks all adds?
00:54:00raptoryes, it looks like the list is update every 2 months or so
00:54:00raptorbut it does better than block all ads
00:54:00sam686anything listed in host file will be blocked, mostly ads are listed to block it
00:54:00raptorit stop any from being download, and it works for all browsers
00:55:00sam686basically, all DNS names will need to be looked up to find IP to connect to..
00:56:00sam686by having it 127.0.0.1, it will try to connect to that instead (which fails) and does not eat not a single internet bandwidth.
00:56:00raptorand 127.0.0.1 is the fast IP to connect to :)
00:56:00sam686as 127.x.x.x is local host (connect to itself)
01:00:00raptori'll have to see how well it does compared to adblock's annoyances list
01:00:00raptori.e. facebook 'like' buttons on all the websites...
01:01:00raptordoesn't do so good...
01:01:00raptorthe annoyances adblock list really speeds up the web, too
01:03:00raptorhttp://www.fanboy.co.nz/
01:03:00raptorthe third list really speeds up the web
01:03:00raptorat least on popular web sites

01:17:00raptorpong
01:17:00sam686pong
01:17:00zoomber_ibmwow, that took forever to reach my other computer
01:18:00sam686we have to type which takes several seconds
01:18:00raptorOK, I'm annihilating soccer pickup
01:19:00zoomber_ibmno sam, i mean the `'ping from my desktop took a longtime to reach my imac
01:20:00zoomber_ibmi guess i didnt tell you, i put back my ibm again
01:20:00zoomber_ibmi was sick of dual monitoring
01:33:00sam686Dual monotor is better for desktops then laptops, but many desktops may only have one video output
01:34:00sam686i like dual monitor on my desktops, but triple monitor is a little too much for me...
01:36:00zoomber_ibmno, mac just has bad desktoop dual monitor output stuff. no dock/menubar
01:37:00sam686in windows, there is taskbar that only show up in one monitor..
01:37:00sam686but in menu bar, it is attached to the program window itself
01:38:00zoomber_ibmyou can change that you know
01:40:00sam686i don't know if i can change that, many programs have their own menu bar, and bitfighter in windows don't have nemu bar, just the title bar.
01:43:00sam686I find myself using Alt+Tab a lot more then taskbar in windows

03:03:00raptorsam686: your new moveObject physics is so much more natural now
03:08:00BFLogBot - Commit fd9e73513067 | Author: buckyballreaction | Log: Goodbye soccer pickup. It was interesting while it lasted...
03:27:00sam686for MoveObjects physics, I have sort of used a formule that was here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_restitution
03:32:00sam686another problem with TextItem in editor, quotation ( " ) turned into space.

14:45:00raptorgood morning!
14:46:00raptorwatusimoto: did you try fake fullscreen?
15:01:00sam686hi
15:01:00raptorhi
15:01:00sam686hi
15:07:00watusimotonot yet; will tonight if I can update
15:07:00watusimotoif I have internet, thatis
15:07:00watusimotolooking forward to it
15:07:00raptorstill mooching off of the neighbors?
15:08:00watusimotosometimes, sometimes I get a city-run wifi connection that I paid for
15:08:00watusimotobut access is very dicy
15:08:00watusimotosometimes works, other times not
15:08:00watusimotoand if it is raining, I don't have a good spot to access it
15:08:00watusimotowell, i never have a good spot; in rain I have no spot
15:09:00watusimotonext week they will try again with the internet install
15:09:00watusimotowas just looking at tolua++
15:09:00watusimotoand wondering if I made a good call using lunar to bind c++ and lua
15:10:00raptorwhat's the difference (other than name)?
15:11:00sam686I think i know how to fix the quote (") and multiple spaces problem in TextItem..
15:12:00watusimotowas it broken?
15:12:00raptorencode everything to base64, then decode it?
15:12:00raptorthat'll fix our escaping problems for good :)
15:12:00sam686by having a string something like this "hello ""there"" !" which will be hello "there" !
15:12:00watusimoto@r == difference is tolua++ generates most of the binding code for you
15:12:00watusimotowhy not "hello\"there\""?
15:13:00watusimotoI didn't realize there was a problem with text items
15:13:00sam686some older version already have \ inside the string, i don't think i want to break existing strings..
15:14:00raptorno one is taking my base64 idea seriously? :)
15:14:00sam686that is, 015 can happily do "/hello\" don't want to break that..
15:14:00watusimotowhat do you want to do that you can't now?
15:14:00sam686double quote turning into single quote does not break anything ("")
15:17:00sam686i am sure no one wants to read different language encoding when reading TextItem
15:17:00raptorthe idea is we always pass any user input into a base64 encoder first, that way we never have to worry about escaping... then we decode when showing back to user
15:17:00raptoralthough that would make level files with plain text unreadable..
15:18:00raptorand probably not support extended chars..
15:18:00raptorok scratch my idea
15:20:00sam686if going with \", then we may have to go with \\ as well. If going with "", then we don't need to do anything about \
15:45:00sam686is there a kind of string replace that have replace(string find, string newstring)?
15:50:00raptorlike a regex search and replace?
15:50:00sam686yes
15:51:00raptornot in the standard c++ libraries, i think
15:51:00raptorthere is string::replace
15:51:00raptorbut not regex
15:52:00raptorhttp://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/replace/
15:53:00sam686i would like to replace all of " into "" for example...
15:53:00sam686i think the one listed there can only replace one thing only at certain position..
15:55:00raptoryesh, it's very minimal
15:56:00raptorhere is example: http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/Cpp/0300__string/Replaceallspaceswithperiod.htm
15:58:00raptorboost!
15:58:00raptorhttp://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/libs/regex/doc/html/index.html
15:59:00raptori think we already have the headers in the project
15:59:00sam686i am not sure what kind of boost replace to use..
16:00:00raptorhttp://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/libs/regex/doc/html/boost_regex/ref/regex_replace.html
16:00:00raptorhowever - this may have a binary component...
16:00:00raptorwhich is no good
16:01:00raptorI have to go now, be back in a few hours...
16:01:00sam686ok

18:31:00karamazovapyFINALLY MY INTERNET IS BACK UP!
18:31:00raptorwell hello there
18:32:00raptoris that your excuse for leaving sam686 and I alone with scary bots?
18:32:00karamazovapyI hate comcast
18:32:00raptorme too
18:33:00sam686it did not look like you lost internet - you was still visiting the forum somehow..
18:33:00karamazovapyI have internet access on my phone
18:33:00karamazovapybut it's a hassle
18:33:00raptorwell you haven't missed too much...
18:33:00raptorsoccer pickup is gone
18:34:00raptori think that's about the only major change...
18:34:00raptorsince you disappeared
18:35:00karamazovapyI have so much illegal downloading to do!
18:35:00raptorgotta get your fix?
18:36:00karamazovapyshyeah...I don't have cable! I missed all my tv!
18:45:00sam686My internet cable has not a single problem in a past 26 days so far (when looking at cable modem log)
18:55:00raptoryeah, when i had comcast I had issues with them...
18:56:00raptorsince i've switched to a fiber provider, i have only had one issue (not involving power outages) in the last 2 years
18:56:00raptorand the problem was solved in 1/2 day
18:57:00sam686my cable is midcontinent communications, earliear I had problem that was related to cable not being able to connect
18:57:00sam686but later, i somehow fix that by adding a cable amplifyer..
18:57:00raptorcable amplifier?
18:57:00raptorthose exist for home users?
18:58:00sam686yes, i have a 2 way amplifyer..
18:58:00sam686mostly weak signal was due to using a splitter to also use a TV
18:59:00sam686i mean i have amplifyer with return path..
19:00:00raptorone of these days the US will have a proper internet infrastructure...
19:00:00raptori hope
19:00:00sam686i have heard zoomber had problem even trying to switch to comcast internet..
19:03:00raptoryeah - one day people will drop TV for good, too, hopefully
19:04:00sam686Why have TV with little or no control of when you want to watch it, if internet have video you can watch almost anything when you want to
19:04:00raptorEXACTLY!
19:04:00raptorit's a 'push' vs 'pull' environment
19:04:00raptorpush is bad
