16:43:22 <Avatar> 31 degree days are stupid
16:44:45 <Avatar> I am totally getting capped at the end of this month thanks to this stupid upgrade
16:48:28 <Brunius> Avatar: Was your train cancelled, then your bus, after a stupid maths exam that you totally failed?
16:48:31 <Brunius> Didn't think so
16:48:57 <Avatar> no I did pretty well
16:49:03 <Avatar> I might drive tomorrow though
16:49:17 <Avatar> what was on the maths exam
16:50:52 <Brunius> Everything we were supposed to learn throughout this year
16:51:58 <Avatar> yeah like what
16:52:06 <Avatar> I don't know what you were meant to learn throughout the year
17:00:45 <Ballig> percentages
17:00:47 <Ballig> and trigonometry
17:03:35 GlompNinja has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
17:03:57 <Avatar> that stuff is easy
17:19:19 GlompNinja ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
17:22:47 Mekkis ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
17:32:21 <Brunius> How does Ballig know the victorian curriculm for year 9 students?
17:32:39 <Brunius> or is that just the stuff I've been whining about
17:34:25 <Avatar> give me a hard question
17:34:30 <Avatar> from the exam
17:35:17 <Brunius> I can't remember any
17:35:42 <Avatar> all you gotta remember is 0.1 is 10%
17:35:49 <Brunius> ...
17:35:55 <Avatar> trust me it's like the key to everything
17:36:05 <Brunius> I can remember easy shit like that
17:36:21 <Avatar> yeah so if you need like 30% of something, you do 10% of it then multiply by 3
17:36:23 <Brunius> It's just stuff like "What is (x+3)(x-3) fully factorised"
17:36:37 <Brunius> Like, wtf
17:36:46 <Avatar> x squared
17:36:50 <Brunius> yeah
17:37:04 <Avatar> that's not right, is it
17:37:16 <Brunius> Looks right to me
17:37:22 <Brunius> wait
17:37:23 <Brunius> no
17:37:37 <Brunius> maybe
17:37:39 <Brunius> idk
17:37:45 <Avatar> you're right this is hard
17:43:26 <Avatar> Jedi_Vader20: you have some kooky friends on your facebook
17:43:49 GlompNinja has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
18:15:15 <Ballig> I think I'm a little happier with the view campaigns page now, it lines up better
18:26:25 <Avatar> it's the same
18:26:31 <Avatar> except the pause icons
18:29:08 <Ballig> define "except the pause icons"
18:34:18 <Avatar> nothing else has changed
18:34:59 Mekkis has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
18:35:21 Mekkis ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
18:54:32 <Ballig> yeah but what changed about the pause icons
18:54:33 <Ballig> that's my point
18:55:50 <Avatar> no they are new
18:55:54 <Avatar> the alignment hasn't changed
18:56:00 <Ballig> then you didn't refresh
18:56:33 <Ballig> the names of the active campaigns now line up with the names of the inactive campaigns
18:56:51 <Avatar> didn't they before
18:56:54 <Ballig> no
18:57:04 <Ballig> the image was just put in front of the inactive ones, so they were skewed in comparison
19:03:59 <Avatar> am I the only person who writes articles out of character
19:04:48 <Avatar> I get pretty invested in my characters but it feels weird to write an article in first person
19:42:29 <Brunius> ha
19:42:53 <Brunius> I much prefer first person
19:43:33 <Brunius> (When writing)
19:44:39 <Avatar> what about when reading
19:47:49 <Brunius> Same
19:52:02 Brunius is now known as Brunius_AFK\
19:52:05 Brunius_AFK\ is now known as Brunius_AFK
20:42:35 <Avatar> having uploads count sucks
20:46:56 <Ballig> when did that happen
20:48:32 <Avatar> I upgraded my plan on the 17th
20:48:41 <Avatar> from 60/60 to 100/100 for $10 less
20:48:48 <Ballig> you upgraded without checking that upload was counted?
20:48:49 <Avatar> but it is eating my quota now because I need to seed
20:48:53 <Avatar> no I knew about i
20:48:54 <Avatar> t
20:48:58 <Ballig> why would you do that
20:49:04 <Avatar> it was a higher quota
20:49:09 <Ballig> but it counts upload
20:49:14 <Ballig> so really it's lower quota
20:49:31 <Avatar> I sort of needed to pay less with a lower quota anyway
20:49:40 <Ballig> broke?
20:49:49 <Avatar> trying to save some $$
20:49:56 <Ballig> broke
20:49:56 <Avatar> the video card fiasco cost me
20:50:04 <Avatar> I'm not broke
20:50:09 <Ballig> seems that way man
20:50:14 <Ballig> you chose a worse plan because it would cost less
20:50:18 <Ballig> because your video card made you broke
20:50:24 <Avatar> well it's not really a worse plan per se
20:50:30 <Ballig> yeah it is
20:50:36 <Avatar> my offpeak is great
20:50:48 <Ballig> except that it counts uploads
20:52:17 <Avatar> yeah but it doesn't matter there
20:52:34 <Ballig> you don't upload during off peak?
20:52:51 <Avatar> no I do
20:52:56 <Avatar> it's just under 10%
22:13:16 GlompNinja ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
22:33:23 <Mekkis> Ballig, are you implying the in the course of a month, Avatar would upload more than 80GB
22:33:53 <Avatar> it's upload + download, on a 100GB peak/100GB offpeak plan
22:33:53 <Ballig> yes
22:34:20 <Ballig> [9:33:04 AM] <Avatar> apparently I uploaded 6 gig a day over 2 days from seeding
22:34:32 <Ballig> even if he averages half that, that's 90gb
22:34:34 <Mekkis> 3gb/day
22:34:41 <Mekkis> half that?
22:34:42 <Ballig> no 6 a day over 2 days would be 6 a day
22:34:45 <Mekkis> half that is 45gb
22:34:46 <Ballig> not 3 a day
22:34:47 <Avatar> that is a maximum, and it's only been those two days
22:34:59 <Ballig> he didn't say 6 over 2, he said 12 over 2
22:35:01 <Ballig> he just said it weirdly
22:35:03 <Avatar> the average is closer to 4 gig
22:35:19 <Ballig> right
22:35:24 <Ballig> that's 120
22:35:27 <Mekkis> what's your upload speed?
22:35:37 <Avatar> about 100k/sec
22:35:49 <Avatar> 4 gig over peak and offpeak
22:35:59 <Ballig> yeah we're not splitting peak/offpeak
22:36:06 <Ballig> he said 80gb because you're gaining 40/40
22:36:07 <Avatar> you have to, it's not 4 gig peak
22:36:10 <Mekkis> Avatar, Kilobytes per second?
22:36:14 <Ballig> he's adding them already
22:36:15 <Avatar> yeah KB/sec
22:36:20 <Mekkis> wow
22:36:21 <Mekkis> that's good
22:36:26 <Ballig> that's about average
22:36:27 <Ballig> I get that too
22:36:34 <Ballig> although I only seed at half it
22:36:39 <Avatar> are you on adsl2+ mekkis
22:36:45 <Avatar> I thought it was average too
22:37:19 <Mekkis> Avatar, I'm on cable
22:37:26 <Mekkis> extremely asymmetric
22:38:13 <Avatar> what do you mean extremely asymmetric
22:38:28 <Avatar> i'm talking speed
22:38:34 <Mekkis> so am I
22:38:49 <Avatar> my download speed is closer to 1MB/sec
22:39:00 <Mekkis> mine reaches 4MB/s
22:39:01 <Avatar> what are your speeds
22:39:07 <Avatar> upload?
22:39:14 <Mekkis> but the upload's 512k
22:39:16 <Mekkis> or something shit
22:39:26 <Mekkis> hence, extremely asymmetric
22:39:58 <Ballig> Avatar: he means he gets high down but low up
22:40:10 <Ballig> if he got the same down as up, it would be symmetric
22:40:21 <Avatar> yeah but mine is asymmetric too
22:40:29 <Ballig> less asymmetric to his
22:40:41 <Avatar> that's why I asked what the speeds were
22:40:45 <Ballig> 100:1000 is more symmetric than 50:4000
22:41:18 <Avatar> do you have a preference on colours you want to see on the site
22:41:28 <Ballig> isn't that your job
22:41:31 <Ballig> you are the one doing a mockup
22:41:37 <Ballig> you saw what happened when I chose colours
22:41:40 <Avatar> yeah if you have a preference I'm going to start with that
22:41:56 <Avatar> if it's sand mud and cobblestone I'll go with something else
22:44:48 <Mekkis> Avatar, I hope you're not changing where the character sheets are stored
22:45:18 <Ballig> he's not changing anything
22:45:22 <Ballig> he's doing a mockup for design
22:45:25 <Ballig> because he says my design is shit
22:50:23 <Mekkis> let's see if this works
22:50:53 <Mekkis> Ballig, do you ever look at your webserver logs?
22:51:11 <Ballig> no
22:51:15 <Ballig> why, what are you doing to my webserver
22:51:25 <Mekkis> just experimenting
22:52:04 <Ballig> what
22:52:05 <Ballig> what are you doing
22:53:05 <Mekkis> I recall that there was some demand for old versions of character sheets to be viewable
22:53:15 sas711 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
22:53:27 <Ballig> was there
22:53:27 <Ballig> why
22:53:32 <Mekkis> I've set up a cron job that runs every day and downloads any new or changed sheets, the commits them to an svn repository
22:54:31 <Mekkis> when I get around to it, I'll make the repository externally browsable
22:54:46 <Mekkis> Avatar said something about it
22:56:39 <Mekkis> Aug 30 16:36:29 <Mekkis> Ballig, do you keep copies of old character sheets?
22:56:39 <Mekkis> Aug 30 16:48:52 <Avatar> they're on the site
22:56:39 <Mekkis> Aug 30 16:49:09 <Avatar> do you mean ones that are uploaded and overwritten
22:56:39 <Mekkis> Aug 30 16:49:24 <Avatar> answer to that is no, we've had problems with that a few times
22:56:40 <Mekkis> Aug 30 16:50:07 <Avatar> like proquar leaving and uploading a bodge version of her backstory without asking me and nothing else when I needed her stats still
22:57:41 <Mekkis> I recall that it was brought up September... 2008? 2009?
22:58:04 <Mekkis> 2009
22:58:14 <Ballig> it's really only been an issue when someone uploaded over the wrong sheet
22:58:18 <Ballig> and for some reason didn't have a local copy
22:58:34 <Mekkis> <Avatar> like proquar leaving and uploading a bodge version of her backstory without asking me and nothing else when I needed her stats still
22:58:37 <Ballig> and the time that proquar didn't want anyone subbing for her after she'd gone, but I had a copy of her sheet anyway
23:00:36 <Mekkis> and it allows me to track MY characters :S
23:01:02 <Mekkis> like the somewhat massive change I'll need to make to Jasim's sheet
