I leave for 2 days

Bio is reasonable tho still.

@AstroCB I don't read the chat transcripts.

@SantaClaus Hey, at least mine has a disclaimer :P

Doorknob

... aw come on. :(

Also, this increases the already strangely large gap between my Parenting rep and my rep on Ask Ubuntu, U&L, etc. on which I know much more about :P

Santa Claus

@Doorknob downvotes

bjb568

100% CPU usage @ 4.12 GHz. :D

Santa Claus

@hichris123 wonders what you have done

Doorknob

@hichris123 Heh, just now I was actually wondering why my CPU usage was so high

Then I realized I accidentally typed "yes" into a terminal instead of Skype...

hichris123

@Doorknob lolwut

bjb568

So Skype used 100% doing nothing.

hichris123

@SantaClaus Computations.

bjb568

11:36 PM

That's why you don't use Skype.

hichris123

> 1,597 seconds

This is going to take a while, isn't it. :P

Santa Claus

@hichris123 wonders what sort of computations

Doorknob

@bjb568 ... erm, no, yes used a ton of CPU (only about 35% actually because multithreading) while Skype used nothing :P

bjb568

No Skype use all the CPU but terminal is limited to a core.

Unihedro

Skype does nothing.

bjb568

11:38 PM

agree

Skype takes 20% of my battery on my phone.

Guess how much I use it?

Doorknob

Well, I set up my terminals to automatically go into tmux when they open, so tmux was using ~25% and yes about 10%

Unihedro

Skype takes 20% battery AND it never updates new incoming messages. Oh well, got rid of it soon enough.

bjb568

Same.

Doorknob

Skype uses almost no battery for me.

bjb568

It's crap.

Every stupid animated smiley would take up another 5% of a core for me.

Gone

Doorknob

@bjb568 Oh, I figured out how to disable those almost immediately. Those are terrible.

hichris123

@SantaClaus Large number computations.

Santa Claus

@Doorknob I think terminal knows more about me than all of my friends combined, simply for this reason.

bjb568

11:41 PM

@hichris123 ooooooOOOOOoooooooOOOOOOOOooooh

Doorknob

fancy

@hichris123 wonders what sort of large number computations

Unihedro

@Doorknob I don't think it's disableable on mobile.

True for PC, though.

Doorknob

@Unihedro Oh yeah, I meant on my laptop.

Santa Claus

@Doorknob wonders how @Doorknob can read my mind

Doorknob

I just disabled the smiley-to-image conversion entirely because it's useless

Unihedro

11:43 PM

emoticon to emoji*

@Doorknob large large number computations

@hichris123 wonders how large these "large large number"s are

Unihedro

Can you even measure battery consumption of a PC app, @Doorknob?

bjb568

wants large large large numbers

user259867

Something useless like Mersenne prime search? Or supposedly useful like protein folding?

hichris123

@SantaClaus 100^50000 as a max, currently.

Doorknob

SPAM

Santa Claus

@hichris123 wonders what business you have with large numbers such as 100^50000

Doorknob

@Frank Ha, ha, ha. That's a terrible joke. Worst I've seen so far today. Have a star.

Unihedro

Thanks!

Frank

user259867

The websockets feed makes it so easy to catch very short questions (say, under 180 chars), because their summary is short. Neat... but... this would be so much more useful on answers.

Santa Claus

@Doorknob We don't star jokes here, do we? That might count as fun, which we don't tolerate here.
