[18:17] ! [18:17] greetings fiveop. [18:17] how are things? [18:18] good [18:18] and in ca? [18:19] and when are you flying to ireland? [18:23] already done and back. [18:23] transatlantic flights suck BTW ;) [18:24] why? [18:26] ever been on one? [18:26] I haven't [18:27] frankfurt london, frankfurt istanbul (and back each time) is all I've been flown yet [18:27] baby-flights [18:30] well, I got delayed going to Chicago, and then delayed in Chicago, then I had to fly through Heathrow, and then to Dublin [18:30] Couldn't get much sleep the entire time either.. [18:30] it was just bad. [18:30] on the way back I got selected for "special" screening in Chicago too. [18:30] that was *GREAT*. [18:31] I'm contemplating a lifetime ban on connecting flights through the US.. [18:31] (on the up side it was free!) [18:31] 20:30:46 < bvowk> on the way back I got selected for "special" screening in Chicago too. [18:31] elaborate please [18:31] rubber gloves [18:32] if so, please don't elaborate :P [18:32] they told me I was selected for special screening.. so they took *EVERYTHING* out of my bag, xrayed it all separately [18:32] then had like three different people feel me up [18:32] and looked through my laptop for pictures [18:33] through your laptop? [18:33] I have definetly to write a most cryptic script language using shell and use it as the only thing my laptop boots into :P [18:34] yeah, they looked through my laptop for pictures.. [18:34] spent a fair while at it too [18:35] although, it was a mac, so the fair while was likely because the guy seemed to have no fucking clue ;) [18:35] :P [18:35] how are they allowed to [18:36] especially since between flights you normaly don't leave 'international' territory on an airport [18:37] yeah, I wasn't really sure either, but they weren't willing to chat, and I make it a habit not to argue with people carrying automatic weapons [18:37] FYI: no running in heathrow. [18:38] I saw two people grabbed by groups of large men for that.. [18:38] air canada flys directly [18:38] "sorry sir, there's no running in heathrow, please come with me", "But I'm going to miss my plane!!", "No sir, you've missed your plane, please come with me *NOW*" [18:39] yeah, but I wasn't the one paying remember ;) [18:39] ;) [18:39] don't know the exchange rate for canadian dollar [18:39] but 13xx for oneway calgary -> dublin doesn't sound cheap [18:40] wtf [18:41] it's the same as the USD today :D [18:41] hasn't been like that in my lifetime. [18:41] nearly [18:41] http://finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?from=USD&to=CAD&amt=1&t=1d [18:41] close enough. [18:41] the euro gets more expencive all the time (relative to the us doller [18:41] ) [18:42] bad for our big exports into the us [18:42] fine by me, as long as Renminbi doesnt soar [18:42] Just give it a couple more days for China to drop flaming USD armageddon on the markets, and the rest of the middle east to start selling oil in Euros and it'll be green toilet paper [18:42] Maybe I could comment on that, if I knew what Renminbi is [18:43] could you explain what you mean by 'drop flaming USD armageddon on the markets' [18:43] China must be losing *BILLIONS* every day.. I don't suppose they'll keep it up at this rate.. they're going to sell their estimated 3 Trillion in USD reserves [18:44] likely hundreds of billions a day [18:44] they start dumping that much dollar, and it'll pretty much be the end [18:45] That would have an imense impact on pretty much everything [18:45] Saudi arabia is talking about selling oil in euros.. [18:45] I would love that, but I doubt the euro would be stable in such a situation [18:46] which is notable, because they're a) the US's biggest ally in the area, b) one of the biggest sellers of oil c) that you have to keep USD on hand to buy oil is one of the only reasons the USD enjoys its status [18:46] so for *THEM* to be contemplating gutting their ally, that's a pretty big dark cloud [18:47] I tell you invest in Gold! [18:47] hopefully it's all posturing, because if the USD really dies, it's going to really mess up my comfortable life. [18:47] why? [18:47] way ahead of you... I'm making a killing ;) [18:48] why? because the US-Canada border is one of the biggest trading relationships in the world.. [18:48] they run out of money to keep paying us for our oil and other assorted trinkets, we're kinda screwed. [18:48] "I'm making a killing" don't understand you here [18:48] oh.. www.bullionvault.com.. online gold trading :) [18:49] bvowk: well oil isn't exaclty something that's hard to sell anywhere else in the world [18:49] goldylocks [18:49] in 3 currencies.. run by one of the oldest precious metal companies in London [18:49] so you're into gold? [18:49] yeah, I've got a bot that's been doing well selling gold between currencies [18:49] all the volatility in the USD has been *GREAT* [18:49] O_o [18:50] although, it's a little bit too much of a down slope right now.. [18:50] a bot? [18:50] yeah, it's somewhat automated. [18:50] yay, bvowk is a financier, want to join my new-Illuminati? [18:50] makes predictions based on news stories and the market ticks [18:50] ... [18:51] now it's getting ridiculous :/ [18:51] it's stupidly simple right now too.. it's mostly just spamassassin hooked up to google news with some bayesian glue [18:52] seems to work alright tho. [18:57] hmm [18:57] but if working on stocks based on news, you are already behind the true cash.. [18:58] *finger fiddling* [18:58] is often said to be a reserve currency as well, due to its stability, although the share of all foreign exchange reserves held in Swiss francs is typically just around or even below 0.3%. [19:01] well, thats why it watches the ticks [19:01] the nice thing about online news is that it comes straight off the wire and is there [19:02] so there's not much lag between action and event [19:02] id still prefer insider bits.. [19:03] and I'm not that into mony [19:03] well, since I don't work for the french intelligence service.. I don't get that. [19:05] money [19:38] yaay! [19:38] no more memory leak [19:39] http://finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?from=USD&to=EUR&amt=1&t=5y looks like a downward trend [19:40] heh [19:40] Thank you Commander Obvious! ;) [19:40] * bvowk ducks. [19:40] :P [19:42] sorry, couldn't resist. [19:42] you might not realize this, but I can be a bit of an asshole ;) [19:46] THAT WAS A NEW ONE [19:46] new what? [19:46] eh? [19:46] WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING? [19:54] maybe i should start a blog too, or rather plan to, but never actually keep one [19:55] since i had about for blog-posts worth of brainstorming while playing Diablo II (yes, i can play both Tetris and D2 with spine only) [20:19] MSG: Quit: humhum [20:24] Join: thenub joined #corewars [20:24] hey [20:24] h [20:24] anyone wanna point me towards a good compiler core thingy in which it is easy to understand what is going on? [20:26] if you just want to _compile_ a program, you can do pmars -r 0 warrior.red > warrior2.red [20:26] if you want a run-time viewing, then corewin is probably best [21:02] kk ty [23:45] Join: Core_new joined #corewars
