13:08.20orange19:15 <kierra> Valumzie:
13:08.27orangeI think that means she has nothing to say to you
13:09.42ndimorange: kierra running out of things to say? Does that actually happen?
13:13.56Valumzielol
13:14.01Valumziethat would be very impressive!
13:17.31TheRedBaronspies a quantumdot!
13:18.15Valumziepokes the quantumdot to see if it's real
13:38.34orangewell I don't mean she has nothing to say
13:38.41orangejust that she has nothing to say to Valumzie
13:39.01orangeidiomatic usage: "I have nothing else to say to you!"
13:39.32orangemeaning I have plenty to say but I'm not going to because it's pointless or it would just make me more upset, etc.

15:12.23ValumzieTheRedBaron has a theory about the revolutionnary war he wanted to test on you :)

15:13.33Valumziewell tell brad!
15:13.37TheRedBaronValumzie: Its the tea that stunts the growth, thats why we threw it in the harbor!
15:13.53ValumzieLOL
15:14.04TheRedBaronlook at the chinese people!
15:14.09brad18:41:23 <@kierra> brad: this is valumz talking - TheRedBaron claims that all British people are short, and that is why Americans won the Revolution
15:14.13brad18:42:16 <@kierra> I was wondering what your take on this is; maybe we can have a debate when you come visit in October!
15:14.16bradlol:)
15:14.16bradI don't even drink tea
15:14.23bradprobably means i'm not a real brit
15:14.34TheRedBaronyup, it probably means that
15:14.37TheRedBarondo you drink ale?
15:14.57bradnope!
15:15.11TheRedBaronYou're not a real brit :(

16:01.46quantumdotno tea, no fish and chips, no baked potato, no apple cake, no soccer, no cricket, no gardening, no antiques, no empire, no Victorian converted house, ....
16:02.21ValumzieTheRedBaron: do yuo think you and catay are going to have to introduce him to proper beer too?
16:02.33Valumziequantumdot: hola! :)
16:02.54quantumdothola
16:03.31quantumdotby proper I hope you do not have any American beer in mind :)
16:03.38TheRedBaronis beginning to suspect that brad is just a machine
16:04.03TheRedBaronquantumdot: tsk tsk, we have some very fine beers here :P
16:04.19TheRedBaronpoor brad, he probably doesn't even know what an IPA is!
16:04.21quantumdotI know one I like
16:05.04TheRedBaronquantumdot: do tell
16:05.21Valumziequantumdot: Americans do actualy have some good beers; more in the micro brewery section :)
16:05.48quantumdotbut it is British in style, I think it is made in Boston area maybe
16:06.39quantumdotit is a name of someone, cant remember now .... thinking
16:07.06TheRedBaronquantumdot: I actually prefer India Pale Ales, if brad can tell me the history of the India Pale ale and what led to its development, my faith in him might be restored
16:07.12TheRedBaronquantumdot: Sam adams?
16:07.24brad:s
16:07.26bradthe what now
16:07.33TheRedBaronbrad: The india Pale ale
16:07.37TheRedBaronand no google for you :P
16:07.44quantumdotSamuel Adams!
16:07.47quantumdotthat is
16:07.49bradheh, no clue
16:08.00TheRedBaronbrad, you break my heart :(
16:08.17brad:(
16:08.51kierra<PROTECTED>
16:08.54quantumdotmaybe he is from Wales :)
16:09.16kierrathat you are ambushed by them....or are you doing the ambushing
16:10.28quantumdotis it obvious kierra?
16:10.39quantumdotisn't it *
16:11.13quantumdotjust scroll up and you'll see who ambushed who :P
16:12.30TheRedBaronbrad: During the british occupation of inda, the normal ales would perish/spoil during the trip from England to India.  And apparently, british troops don't like to fight without ale.
16:13.02TheRedBaronSo a new beer had to be brewed that would survive (or be preserved) its trip to india (before the suez canal)
16:13.03quantumdotsame happen to their national rugby and soccer teams :)
16:13.35TheRedBaronThe solution was fairly simple; Add more hops :)
16:13.48kierrahmmm
16:14.19TheRedBaronand so India Pale Ales are charactarized by their 'hoppiness' giving them a slightly sweet/bitter flavor, varying on the hop amount and hop types
16:14.49TheRedBaronThe added hops were a natural preservative :)
16:15.01brado.o
16:15.15bradthanks for the history lesson :p
16:15.18quantumdotisnt it that what is called "a bitter" in England and specially in Scotland ?
16:15.45quantumdotthey would never call "indian" for a beer
16:16.53TheRedBaronwell, the beer was to be exclusively exported to inda, but it became popular and some breweries did drop the 'india' prefix and just call them "pale ales"
16:17.18TheRedBaronNow they are usually just called an IPA
16:17.23quantumdotbitter beer arent quite pale in colour actually
16:17.43quantumdotthey are brownish
16:18.21TheRedBaronhence the distinction between Ales & Pale Ales
16:22.12TheRedBaronbrad: so, are you excited yet?
16:22.37orangebrad: how about steak and kidney pie?
16:22.40orangeblood pudding?
16:22.52Valumzie~wake catay
16:22.52purlACTION throws a barrel-full of ice water on catay and shouts "GOOD MORNING!!!!"
16:22.55TheRedBaronShepards pie?
16:23.06TheRedBaronbrad: do you at least hunt foxes?
16:23.14Valumzieor drink scotch?
16:23.20orangebangers and mash?
16:23.29bradLOL
16:23.45orangethe fox one did make me lol
16:23.46bradim quite scared now :(
16:24.02orangeI tried all of those things... didn't care for the black pudding or the steak and kidney pie

18:12.24BulletCatcherAssuming your laptop runs Windows, JeffM and/or blast007 over in #bzflag should be able to help you better than I can.
18:12.41kierraokies, but they scare me
18:12.54kierragirds up her courage
18:13.00BulletCatcherThey're really just kittens. :-)
18:13.44kierratheres way too many peeps in #bzflag...to display my techno ignorance before
18:14.14kierrawho has more patience, blast or jeff?
18:15.16BulletCatcherThey're about the same.  Just do your best to answer their questions (and ask questions of your own if needed) and it'll be fine.
18:15.40kierrasigh
18:15.55BulletCatcherpats kierra's hand
18:15.58mvironafternoon kierra
18:16.44kierrahi mviron :)
18:16.53catayI learned something yesterday
18:17.01catayby watching The Patriot
18:17.24catayapparently the Americans won from the short britisch people because they got help from the french :P
18:17.57cataythat's quite a desperate thing, needing help from the French :P
18:18.07mvironkierra: hope everything is going well for you
18:18.22Valumzielol; TheRedBaron wake up!
18:18.25kierraidk
18:18.31catayjust trying to defend little brad :)
18:18.54mvironwelcome back Valumzie
18:19.12kierraonly reason french helped us was bec they hated the brits
18:19.37cataywell, no worries, mel gibson did most of the work :P
18:19.55BulletCatcherThe French were a superpower in the late 18th century, quite capable of posing a serious threat to Britain.
18:19.57mvironsends catay back to sanity
18:20.10TheRedBaronwat?
18:20.22mvironhello TheRedBaron and wb
18:20.36TheRedBaronkierra: blast has more patience :P
18:20.42kierraeek....too late
18:20.45ValumzieTheRedBaron: check what catay said at 2:17 :D
18:20.47catayTheRedBaron: nothing important, you can continue with working :)
18:20.54kierrawhat does this mean?  (2:19:59 PM) JeffM: do you run in experimental?
18:20.55kierra(2:20:04 PM) JeffM: or high?
18:21.05cataythat's geek talk :P
18:21.19kierrais doomed
18:22.25TheRedBaroncatay: its ok, we repaid them and even more on normandy :P
18:22.43TheRedBaronkierra: tell him you run it sober, and not high
18:23.08kierraoh geez, ty TRB :P
18:26.55TheRedBaroncatay: too bad the french couldn't take lessons from us on how to run a revolution ;)
18:28.36BulletCatcherexperimental or high are quality settings in the bzflag configuration menu.
18:28.56kierrafound it :) ty
18:29.13kierraon high i was locking up, trying medium
18:29.13BulletCatcherChoose high if it isn't that way already.
18:30.07BulletCatcherHigh generally works the best.
18:31.20BulletCatcherOne thing to try is running in windowed mode instead of full-screen, but I don't know how to make that happen on Windows.
18:31.54TheRedBaronBulletCatcher:  either alt+enter
18:31.58TheRedBaronor F1
18:32.12kierrawindowed?
18:32.18kierrais that the smaller screen?
18:32.23TheRedBaronand last i checked (long time ago) there was a shortcut in the startmenu to start it in windowed mode
18:32.27kierrais that a dumb question?
18:32.38kierrahmm
18:33.11cataynot sure :P
18:33.22kierrasmacks catay
18:33.32kierrathis is serious discussion :P
18:33.36catayjeez, depends if you maximize or minimize it :P
18:33.56kierraif i minimize, cant play with it in my task bar, now can i
18:34.35cataywhy does it lock up ? heat?
18:35.00catayis it when you play a long time ?
18:35.33catayTheRedBaron: it's ok , no need to find excuses for acceptigs help from the French :)
18:35.36catay*accepting
18:35.49kierrano
18:36.08kierrawhy ddidnt my config follow to 2.4?????
18:36.19kierramy radar settings are so different from 2.0
18:36.32Bambinoit should have...mine transfered flawlessly
18:36.43BulletCatcherYeah, should have transferred.
18:37.00kierrathey havent
18:37.11Bambinodo you have a backup of your old one?
18:37.13BulletCatcherIf you delete the new config file it should create a new one based on your 2.0 file.
18:37.40kierrawell....if i screw up by deleting wrong thing....then i'm in a picle
18:37.43kierrapickle
18:37.53kierra:)
18:38.11BulletCatcherYou can rename it rather than delete, just in case.
18:39.13kierrahmm
18:39.17kierragoes look
18:39.35BulletCatcherAnd F1 should indeed be the way to switch from fullscreen to windowed mode.
18:39.54TheRedBaroncatay: :P
18:40.39kierraomg, play with that tiny screen????
18:40.43kierrasigh
18:40.52kierraTRB, i need to get into TF2
18:41.48BulletCatcherIt is possible to make the window just slightly smaller than your full screen.
18:42.31Bambinojust pull the corner of the screen to expand it to your liking

18:52.20BambinoYou're on windows right?
18:55.09kierrayes
18:55.28kierrai can f1 and it minimizes, but too small
18:55.40kierraand corner dragging isnt working
18:55.45Bambinohmm, it never worked for me on windows either...is your mouse confined to the screen or mousebox?
18:55.55TheRedBaronshe probably does have mouse confinement.

19:00.30TheRedBaronmviron: what can I say, other then "work"
19:01.37mvironTheRedBaron: know the feeling only too well
19:24.45cataythe trick is to delegate the boring working to others and keeping the cool work for yourself :)

19:27.54mvironsends TheRedBaron root beers
19:32.06catayTheRedBaron: I don't master that trick yet :P
19:33.09cataynot sure if travelling for work is condidered cool, i'm always messed up for at least a week when i come back from the US
19:33.37catayarriving on Sunday, and Monday totallly jetlagged back to work
19:33.49catayit's much more fun just having holidays overthere :)
