| 06:23 | | * Vornicus tries to figure out how best to arrange some logic |
| 06:36 | <~Vornicus> | So, I have paths with junctions; each path is a simple line segment, and I know where it intersects with others. It's also possible for a path to have a dead end. The gondola moves along the path. If it reaches a junction and the controls include a push to the side of the path, the gondola should take that side path. If it reaches the end and it's a junction, it *must* take a side path; if there's a push it uses that, but otherwise it |
| 06:36 | <~Vornicus> | prefers right turns if available. And if it's a dead end it must stop. |
| 06:39 | | * McMartin notices some backscroll, ....s. |
| 06:39 | <&McMartin> | "| xargs echo" means you might as well just run find, TW. |
| 06:39 | <&McMartin> | I'm going to credit this to critical tea failure |
| 06:40 | <~Vornicus> | So I have to know when I'm at a junction and when I'm at the end of the line. |
| 06:40 | <&McMartin> | Vornicus: That sounds like a job for a nav mesh |
| 06:41 | <~Vornicus> | Probably I should be turning it into a real nav mesh, yes. |
| 06:42 | <&jeroud> | McMartin: Not entirely true. xargs can split a large parameter list into multiple command invocations. |
| 06:46 | <~Vornicus> | last time I tried that I ended up doing it by hand. It was incredibly annoying to debug, too |
| 06:47 | <&McMartin> | If you're building the screen from tiles, you could fabricate a mesh from a BFS traversal of the world, right? |
| 06:48 | <~Vornicus> | I'm not building the screen from tiles. |
| 06:49 | <&McMartin> | Ah. |
| 06:51 | | * Vornicus tries to figure out what his nav mesh data would look like. |
| 06:59 | <~Vornicus> | each edge has: a primary direction; the direction the gondola should travel if forced to each side; the direction the gondola should travel if drifting (so it drifts toward docks when near them), and the vertices on each end. Each vertex has: ...whether it's a stop spot or not, the edges it attaches to in each direction. |

| 07:11 | <~Vornicus> | ...maybe I still have the mesh data from last time |

| 22:00 | <&ToxicFrog> | McMartin: so, you have -- or had, I don't know if you're still using it -- a System 76 Gazelle 7 |
| 22:00 | <&ToxicFrog> | Did you ever get it to (or attempt to get it to) boot in UEFI mode? |
| 22:01 | <&ToxicFrog> | It has a "launch EFI shell from filesystem" option in the firmware, but if I feed it a disk with an ESP partition it just ignores it and skips to the next entry in the boot order. Nor can I find any way to force it to boot in EFI mode. |
| 22:02 | <&McMartin> | I still have it and use it |
| 22:02 | <&McMartin> | I never attempted to alter its boot profile. |
| 22:03 | <&ToxicFrog> | Do you happen to know if it's booting in UEFI mode by default? |
| 22:03 | <&ToxicFrog> | (if it did, then /sys/firmware/efi will exist, /boot/efi probably will as well, and running "efibootmgr" might work) |
| 22:05 | <&McMartin> | I can check. One moment. |
| 22:07 | <&McMartin> | Neither of the two files you describe are present. |
| 22:07 | <&McMartin> | Under sys/firmware there is only acpi and memmap. |

| 22:10 | <&ToxicFrog> | Damn. Thanks for checking. |
| 22:17 | <&ToxicFrog> | Hmm. Some research indicates that the Galago Ultrapro, released at about the same time, has the same behaviour (there's a "start EFI shell" command but no way of booting in EFI mode), and the solution was a BIOS update. There don't seem to be any BIOS updates available for the gazp7, though. |
| 22:17 | | * ToxicFrog sends them a message |
| 22:18 | <&ToxicFrog> | I would really like to get orias as everything-on-zfs before I merge it with ancilla, but if I can't boot it in EFI mode, I can't do that. |
| 22:18 | <&ToxicFrog> | Or rather, I probably can, but it's far too much of a pain in the ass. |
| 22:18 | <&McMartin> | I've been considering getting a hardware refresh - the gazp7 is a bit elderly at this point and I can't really game with it - but it otherwise does what I need |
| 22:18 | | * ToxicFrog nods |
| 22:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | I refreshed last year because the battery life was down to about 15-20 minutes |
| 22:19 | <&McMartin> | Yep |
| 22:19 | <&McMartin> | And they'd stopped producing the batteries |
| 22:19 | <&McMartin> | However, some other guys had not, and I picked up a replacement on Black Friday for 75% off |
| 22:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | These days I value battery life a lot more than I used to, and 15 minutes is pretty bad even if I didn't |
| 22:19 | <&McMartin> | It has been serving me well ever since. |
| 22:19 | <&ToxicFrog> | That was in fact its second battery! Both the first and the second degraded remarkably quickly. |
| 22:20 | <&McMartin> | Yeah, this is my third. |
| 22:20 | <&McMartin> | This is a third-party battery |
| 22:20 | <&McMartin> | Who I think at this point I owe a very nice review of on Amazon. |
| 22:20 | <&ToxicFrog> | I'm now using it a server, which means that the battery is a tertiary power supply after mains and the UPS. |
| 22:20 | <&ToxicFrog> | *using it as |
| 22:20 | <&ToxicFrog> | (I replaced it with a Lenovo T550, which I am extremely happy with) |
| 22:21 | <&McMartin> | Yeah, my hard-work laptop now is a new MBP, because I have to do iOS dev at work and Apple can extort me |
| 22:22 | <&ToxicFrog> | This is just a personal laptop; my work laptop is a Lenovo Carbon X1 mk 3. |
| 22:22 | <&ToxicFrog> | Dual-purposing doesn't work so well considering how much custom stuff is involved in both cases. |
| 22:22 | <&McMartin> | Yeah |
| 22:22 | <&McMartin> | Anyway: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KSUM0UU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_deta ilpage_o02_s00 |
| 22:23 | <&McMartin> | This battery has worked superbly in my gazp7; it's too early to say whether it's done better than the first battery, but it has already outperformed the second by an embarassingly good factor. |
| 22:23 | <&ToxicFrog> | (work laptop runs a google-custom fork of ubuntu with the TPM enabled and a bunch of other stuff; I run openSUSE with ZFS everywhere I can get away with) |
| 22:24 | <&ToxicFrog> | Iiiiiiinteresting. |
| 22:24 | <&ToxicFrog> | This implies that the gazp7 chassis, like the Galago, is Clevo hardware |
| 22:24 | <&ToxicFrog> | I wonder if I can figure out the exact model and get a BIOS update from Clevo |
