viric: wives always talk about insanity ;)
panda|x201 has joined #qi-hardware
<viric>
no idea, but a fair amount of the russians I know use to mention "that's insane" for things other people do. I mean it's a noticeable easy trigger for that :)
<viric>
moreover, I think that changing dictionary definitions may be something very clever instead of insane.
<viric>
Yes, it's a scandal, but scandals last two days, and then life goes on

viric: interesting observation
<whitequark>
I wonder why does this happen
<viric>
:)
<viric>
I think most russians I know tend to have a worldview of they feeling as "perfect logic analyzers", so all foreign that doesn't match becomes ilogic or insane.
<viric>
Maybe it's something in the education system
<viric>
but instead of thinking "weird, I don't understand why those people do that", they think "those people are insane"
<viric>
But maybe simply the construction "they are insane" is a russian pattern to mean "I don't understand those"
<kyak>
it's just a common phrase
<kyak>
not just they really think they are insane
<viric>
yes, can be.
<whitequark>
I would say that both are partly correct. But yes, I didn't mean that those spaniards were *literally* insane :)
<viric>
For us, the english idiom "I'm excited" here has clear sexual connotations
<viric>
Yet english people say "I received the nanonote! I'm excited about it!"
<viric>
:)
<viric>
and I bet they don't mean anything sexual
<whitequark>
dunno, it doesn't sound sexual for me when said in english
<whitequark>
in russian, indeed it would
<kyak>
"взволнован" sounds stupid, "возбужден" has sexual context :)
<whitequark>
imo "can't wait to <verb>" would be the best alternative for translating "excited"
<kyak>
in this case you would have to come up with that <verb>
<kyak>
"взбудоражен" :)
<whitequark>
hehe

morons making my notebook decided to omit 2.0 support in chipset completely and implement it through a rate-matching hub
<whitequark>
so without xhci-hcd loaded I cannot access any of my external ports, whereas that would be a 2.0 or 3.0 device on them
<whitequark>
and given that xhci-hcd fails to recognize STM32VLDISCOVERY, hm, I've no idea what to do
<whitequark>
except to begin despising new technology
<kyak>
would external usb 2.0 hub be of any help?
<whitequark>
oh, actually I wasn.t exactly right. they DID implement 2.0 support in chipset, but only routed it to internal devices.
<whitequark>
kyak: probably no
<whitequark>
the problem is with the linux driver and/or differences in HCI implementation
<whitequark>
linux *xhci* driver, which gets to identify the device regardless of its actual usb version

<whitequark>
hm well, for some reason the usb-storage quirk helped
<whitequark>
I'm feeling quite stupid right now

whitequark: lol
<whitequark>
DocScrutinizer05: what in particular?
<DocScrutinizer05>
3.0 and converter for external ports
<DocScrutinizer05>
or rather: 2.0 for internal USB only
<whitequark>
oh indeed
<whitequark>
intel surely does some weird decisions
<DocScrutinizer05>
morons don't consider at least one genuine 2.0 external port
<whitequark>
it seems that they use the rate-matching hub technique for a long time; they did the same with 1.0/2.0
<wpwrak>
the magazines like it if all the ports are USB 3.0 ;-)
