_goblin | and what better way to celebrate that then hitting my 100,000th reader (in approx 22 more reads) | Dec 20 00:10 |
notzed | oddly enough searching for 'fired for not saying bing' returns 0 results on bing itself | Dec 20 00:11 |
_goblin | still its funny..... | Dec 20 00:19 |
_goblin | "Bing" | Dec 20 00:19 |
_goblin | Bing - Noun - a heap or a pile. | Dec 20 00:19 |
MinceR | a big steaming pile? | Dec 20 00:20 |
_goblin | yep.... | Dec 20 00:20 |
_goblin | you would have thought one MS employee would have checked its dictionary meaning before going with the name Bing. | Dec 20 00:20 |
MinceR | are you saying they should have googled it? :> | Dec 20 00:21 |
notzed | well i can't say 'bing' is in common usage as a word at all, apart from a limp-wristed version of 'ding' | Dec 20 00:21 |

MinceR | Bing makes me think of a certain character of the Friends series. | Dec 20 00:24 |
Will_ | fake or not? (I might be a little skeptical of it if I hadn't seen Ballmer on Youtube before. I'm inclined to think it's real. | Dec 20 00:24 |

Will_ | Overheard someone talking about OO.org to someone who had never heard of it before. They wouldn't even give it the time of day because it wasn't MS Office and they just didn't trust it. Even if it was free to try. | Dec 20 00:28 |
_goblin | Ive had people ask why Microsoft don't charge for OO but do for Office....shows how brainwashed people are into thinking that everything pc = Microsoft | Dec 20 00:28 |
Will_ | Here's the funny part: they said they used Firefox. When told it wasn't made by Microsoft, they decided that they didn't trust it either and were going to go back to IE. | Dec 20 00:29 |

schestowitz | The best solution is not just CO2 reductions | Dec 20 12:36 |

schestowitz | We humans are not meant (or designed) to restrict our reproduction | Dec 20 12:37 |

schestowitz | It's not in our genes; if it was, then we'd fall out of the chain (Darwin award) | Dec 20 12:37 |
kecskebak | Humans do restrict their reproduction when they are relatively affluent - poverty causes population increase | Dec 20 12:38 |
schestowitz | Yes, exactly | Dec 20 12:38 |
schestowitz | And you can't really impose sanctions/rules on them | Dec 20 12:38 |

kecskebak | I've just got a funny feeling about it. It might be the way that opposing viewpoints and even peer reviewed data are treated. That and the fact that there is so much money to be made out of climate change. | Dec 20 12:53 |
kecskebak | I used to be certain that it was happening, as certain as Roy, but now I'm really not sure. | Dec 20 12:53 |
oiaohm | I am certain of global dimming effect. kecskebak | Dec 20 12:54 |
oiaohm | That is a simple one to test for. | Dec 20 12:54 |
oiaohm | The problem is sorting out what damage is global dimming and other effects. | Dec 20 12:55 |
kecskebak | And global dimming is definitely caused by humans isn't it? | Dec 20 12:56 |
oiaohm | Yep kecskebak | Dec 20 12:56 |
cubezzz | wait a sec, Exxon says "everything is fine" | Dec 20 12:57 |

kecskebak | The Carbon Derivative Swaps were invented by the same woman who invented Credit Default Swaps that caused the current crash. They'll have the same effect. | Dec 20 12:58 |
oiaohm | kecskebak: There are natural causes of global dimming but they are normally 100~s of years appeart. ie big volcano explosions and the like. | Dec 20 12:58 |
schestowitz | Nuclear exchange | Dec 20 12:58 |
oiaohm | We humans are being good at const causing global dimming effects. The jet one become 100 percent confirmed after sep 11. | Dec 20 12:59 |
cubezzz | well the arctic ice cap is a ton smaller, that pretty much tells the story | Dec 20 12:59 |
oiaohm | Not really cubezzz | Dec 20 13:00 |
oiaohm | That has two causes. Higher earth heat or global dimming effect on evaporation. Now what cause is the worst one. | Dec 20 13:00 |

kecskebak | oiaohm: I didn't really hear it mentioned - just CO2 | Dec 20 13:06 |
oiaohm | Its not even being considered at Copenhagen. | Dec 20 13:06 |

oiaohm | Problem is we have two possible effects that can explain the disappearing ice cubezzz. One is 100 percent known to be our problem. Ie global dimming. Global dimming has knock on effects for plants to take up CO2 as well. | Dec 20 13:11 |
cubezzz | yes I think most people agree there is global dimming | Dec 20 13:12 |
cubezzz | that would be what I'd expect due to industrialization | Dec 20 13:12 |
cubezzz | the coal burning... | Dec 20 13:12 |
kecskebak | People even burn animal dung to cook in large parts of China | Dec 20 13:13 |
oiaohm | Global dimming testing is simple. Pan of water and measure how fast water disappears. | Dec 20 13:13 |
kecskebak | Very sooty, and a large problem | Dec 20 13:13 |
cubezzz | it sounds like dimming would mess up a lot of stuff, even make solar power less accessible | Dec 20 13:14 |
oiaohm | Yes the exact other way to global warming has been happing in the pans. Ie less evaportation. | Dec 20 13:15 |
oiaohm | Then there are light monitors as well that match up to the pan data. | Dec 20 13:15 |

schestowitz | One leads to another | Dec 20 13:17 |
schestowitz | So you are left with a problem to resolv | Dec 20 13:17 |
schestowitz | How to reduce warming | Dec 20 13:17 |
oiaohm | Problem is the effects look the same kecskebak | Dec 20 13:17 |
schestowitz | Thw goal is to reduce warming | Dec 20 13:17 |
oiaohm | doing correct measure ments would show the difference. | Dec 20 13:17 |
cubezzz | try to reduce fossil fuel use I guess | Dec 20 13:17 |
schestowitz | The question is not just how? | Dec 20 13:18 |
oiaohm | Warming should cause more evaporation not less. | Dec 20 13:18 |
oiaohm | So there should be more rain/snow fall. | Dec 20 13:18 |
schestowitz | It's also not whether man causes it but whether MAN CAN REDUCE IT | Dec 20 13:18 |
oiaohm | There is a big problem there is less globally. | Dec 20 13:18 |
kecskebak | Sorry I'm slow, but you're saying that we're getting less rain and snow that we'd expect from the warming we're seeing due to dimming | Dec 20 13:19 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: I think one measure it to dig tunnels to move sea water into land | Dec 20 13:19 |
schestowitz | It's possible where the gound is lower than zero | Dec 20 13:19 |

oiaohm | That is what you call direct confirmed cause and effect. | Dec 20 13:24 |
Diablo-D3 | I dont think so, Tim. | Dec 20 13:24 |
oiaohm | The worst part about what we are doing kecskebak with dimming is that it puts us at more risk of having to suffer a nuclear winter if some large volcanos go off. | Dec 20 13:27 |

-BNc/#boycottnovell-[popey] I love that Rage Against The Machine got #1 without shipping a single physical disc. All digital downloads. | Dec 20 19:07 | |
schestowitz | I've always a assumed that DirectX and MPAA nonsense leads to specs changing. Please paste it here. | Dec 20 19:07 |
amarsh04 | well, the cards are designed primarily for ms-win | Dec 20 19:08 |
schestowitz | BTW, Novell fired Luc, who was a key dev of radeonhd. It shows Novell's priorities | Dec 20 19:08 |
amarsh04 | just a sec | Dec 20 19:08 |
schestowitz | FWIW, private sources told me that development was almost sent to Red Hat by AMD. They were furious | Dec 20 19:08 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:02] <bridgman> the internal architecture of the two drivesr is very different; closed source drivers are designed from ground up to support DRM, for example, and opening up too much of the internals makes it hard to keep the DRM implementation robust on other OSes | Dec 20 19:10 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:03] <gnubien> udovdh: ok, thanks | Dec 20 19:10 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:03] <bridgman> we obviously don't use any of the DRM code on Linux, but we do use common things like memory managers, display control code, command submission, etc... | Dec 20 19:10 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:03] <bridgman> and they all play a role in DRM | Dec 20 19:10 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:03] <Crazycheese> bridgman, in this context you mean DRM as Digital Rights Management(1) or as Direct Rendering Manager(2) ? | Dec 20 19:10 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:04] <bridgman> 1 | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:04] <bridgman> evil drm ;) | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:04] <-- BigBrain has left this server (Remote closed the connection). | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:04] <bridgman> gnubien; Xpress200 is more-or-less 4xx display & 2D plus a cut-down rv370 3D core | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:05] <bridgman> but there's relatively less internal documentation on the Xpress200-specific hardware bits than on other GPUs, so we're having a tougher time with the open source driver support | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:06] <gnubien> bridgman: ok, 3-5 years old i guess | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:08] <bridgman> also a separate team which only worked on IGP parts | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:09] <bridgman> the teams working on GPU cores are geographically dispersed so need more documentation | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:09] <bridgman> the IGP team was all in one place, which is great for efficiency but not so good at leaving a detailed written history for us to snaffle up 5 years later ;) | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:10] <gnubien> bridgman: hope you are being paid well for your efforts :) | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:22] <Crazycheese> damn DRM, screw it. I have not been using it since its introduction and I still go to live concerts and cinema. :/ I thought the reasons of concealing were lots of hours spent by technician on card design, so it does not get to "rivals" for free. But DRM.. damn. :/// | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:23] <bridgman> DRM is probably 70% of the complication in supporting open source, 3rd party IP is 20%, competitive stuff is maybe 10% | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:24] <Crazycheese> nevertheless I apreciate amd hardware and people behind it a lot. | Dec 20 19:11 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 04:24] <bridgman> maybe 60/30/10, not sure | Dec 20 19:11 |

schestowitz | One about OLPC | Dec 20 19:14 |
amarsh04 | bridgeman is posting from a Canadian ip home isp address | Dec 20 19:14 |
amarsh04 | here is another comment: | Dec 20 19:15 |
amarsh04 | <Crazycheese> bridgman, if opensource components which allow opengl2+ implementation submerge, will opensource driver get ogl2+ support? Am asking this to understand whether decision to keep two drivers is company policy or only dependant on 3 points you explained and may be shifted to opensource in the future. | Dec 20 19:15 |
amarsh04 | [2009-12-21 05:31] <bridgman> not sure I understand the question; if you're asking whether we would consider dropping fglrx if the open source driver was equally fast and feature-rich, I think the answer is probably yes; we just know how much work it is and don't see anyone who would benefit from investing that much effort in the open source drivers | Dec 20 19:15 |
amarsh04 | I don't recall seeing any comments that spelled it out as clearly schestowitz, so go ahead | Dec 20 19:17 |
schestowitz | I remember all the projects the GPU makers killed... | Dec 20 19:27 |
schestowitz | Sent to the bitbucket | Dec 20 19:27 |
schestowitz | Never to be heard from again. | Dec 20 19:27 |
schestowitz | I think AMD hired one dev who made a driver that's free | Dec 20 19:27 |
schestowitz | amarsh04: is michaellarabel in that channel? | Dec 20 19:27 |
schestowitz | He usually covers it | Dec 20 19:27 |
schestowitz | But he hasn't yet | Dec 20 19:28 |

MinceR | i like to debug windows with a kubuntu install cd. | Dec 20 20:50 |
yuhong | But that is not really true debugging. | Dec 20 20:50 |
MinceR | yes it is | Dec 20 20:50 |
MinceR | the number of bugs in the OS on the system decreases. | Dec 20 20:50 |
yuhong | You won't have access to WinDbg and all these tools. | Dec 20 20:50 |
MinceR | instead, i have access to fdisk, mkfs.ext2 and all those tools. | Dec 20 20:51 |
yuhong | MinceR: That is not my definition of debugging. | Dec 20 20:51 |
cubezzz | yes but removing windows entirely is even better :) | Dec 20 20:51 |
yuhong | But that is not debugging Windows. | Dec 20 20:51 |
yuhong | Removing Windows is not debugging Windows. | Dec 20 20:52 |
MinceR | windows is a bug. | Dec 20 20:52 |
cubezzz | seriously yuhong, why bother? | Dec 20 20:52 |
MinceR | one with many smaller bugs in it. | Dec 20 20:52 |
cubezzz | I am self-employed, I decide | Dec 20 20:52 |
yuhong | Windows itself is not a bug. | Dec 20 20:52 |
yuhong | In the same way that Linux itself is not a bug. | Dec 20 20:53 |
cubezzz | I don't have the source of windows, how would I debug it? | Dec 20 20:53 |
cubezzz | by guessing? | Dec 20 20:53 |
yuhong | No. | Dec 20 20:53 |
yuhong | MS offers public symbols of Windows on their symbol server. | Dec 20 20:54 |
yuhong | No source code, but I can read x86 asm. | Dec 20 20:54 |
MinceR | wow, he can read x86 asm | Dec 20 20:54 |
MinceR | i can also _write_ x86 asm :> | Dec 20 20:54 |
cubezzz | ok, I used windows the longest... and I decided after 20 years to stop :) | Dec 20 20:54 |
cubezzz | so I am allowed to do that :) | Dec 20 20:55 |
yuhong | In fact, even debugging on Linux with open source software. | Dec 20 20:55 |
