<pikajude> in vim, there's text in a window, but sometimes you type *on* it

<ec^> ...
<ec^> On that page, “Open a web browser and browse to my.iit.edu and type in your Username and Password in the boxes provided and click on “Login”.”
alexgordon has joined #elliottcable
<ec^> okay, what's my username
<ec^> “Your myIIT is username is your Unified ID (UID).”
<ec^> ...
<ec^> what's my UID
<ec^> “Your UID is the start of your IIT email address, for example if bsmith34@iit.edu is your IIT email address, your UID is bsmith34.”
<ec^> ...
<ec^> “The initial password is your birthday in MMDD format and the last 4 digits of your Banner ID.”

<ec^> ...
<ec^> okay, what's my Banner ID

<ec^> katymoe: are you the one who introduced me to Angel Haze? bc jesus christ I'm obsessed now

<ec^> I mean, pikajude, devyn, Aria, I think maybe audy … can tell you
<ec^> not creationix, though! *fixes that*
* creationix doesn't use facebook. Feels like is missing something
<katymoe> ec^: yesssss
<katymoe> if you're at all interested in hip hop (esp. experimental), I have other suggestions too!
<ec^> katymoe: I'm down. sshrug
<ec^> I mostly like electronic things; and I have an aversion to lyrics that I cannot hear (I have very ... precise, but undifferentiated? hearing, like, it's a diagnosed issue; I have a lot of trouble with music where the lyrics muddle into the beats.)
<ec^> but I have a weaaaaaakness for bass. Anything with a creative or just plain sick fuckin' bass drop will capture my heart.
<ec^> oh god Spotify ddis
<ec^> re-arranged some music, and now it's decided to re-sync *all* of the music on my phone.
<ec^> That's 3,000 tracks. Ugh, this is gonna take forever.
<ec^> And there's a song buried somewhere in my library that's bugged, and crashes Spotify about ~30 songs after it tries to sync, has been like that for years; so every time I have to sync my library to a new device, I have to sit there and monitor it, and re-open the app when it crashes, every 30 songs or so.
<ec^> ... and my calendar's lost like, half of my events, wtf
<ec^> I hate computers except when writing code.
<katymoe> yeah, I love Spotify usually but the mobile app is buggy for me
<katymoe> what's your username? I have some playlists you might like
<katymoe> my work music is strictly minimal techno, no vocals
<katymoe> except during super intense work. then it's the most industrial-sounding techno I can find
<ec^> katymoe: elliottcable.
ec^ is now known as ELLIOTTCABLE
<ELLIOTTCABLE> katymoe: if you like electronic at all, you should check out this playlist of mine: it's gotten ... rave reviews.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> (pun intended. :P)
<ELLIOTTCABLE> (thx VanguardVivian / emilyrose)
<katymoe> I will
<katymoe> and here's my day one (to be shuffled)
<Hrorekr> <ec^> I hate computers except when writing code.
<Hrorekr> for most people it is the opposite :P
<ELLIOTTCABLE> katymoe: day one?
<ELLIOTTCABLE> Hrorekr: really? idk, most of the programmers I know hate everything about computers with a holistic totality
<katymoe> I love computers
<katymoe> they do whatever I tell them
<ELLIOTTCABLE> holistic |hōˈlistik|, adjective (chiefly Philosophy)
<ELLIOTTCABLE> characterized by comprehension of the parts of something as intimately interconnected and explicable only by reference to the whole.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> totality |tōˈtalədē|, noun
<ELLIOTTCABLE> the whole of something.
<katymoe> I think that was the joke
<ELLIOTTCABLE> katymoe: heads-up ... you might be a control freak. :D
<katymoe> :p
<katymoe> what I love is that what I tell them sometimes leads to unexpected things
<katymoe> like all formal systems we study
<katymoe> you can define any axioms of maths/set theory you like, but the things you derive from them will ultimately be non-trivial
<katymoe> that's the beauty of it
<katymoe> and if it's unexpected, coming to understand it and closing that gap between my mind and the result is pleasurable for me
<katymoe> sorry, it's really hard to explain why I love maths
<Hrorekr> ELLIOTTCABLE, not programmers, most normal people are glued to their facebook all day
<katymoe> Hrorekr: I'm not sure if they'd call that 'love' - perhaps habit?
<ELLIOTTCABLE> Emergence.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> katymoe: you sound like my dad, lol.
<purr> lol
<katymoe> ELLIOTTCABLE: yes.
<katymoe> I sound like your dad?!
<katymoe> is that good?
<ELLIOTTCABLE> he would parrot on about the beauty of emergent properties for, like, days.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> throughout my upraising. :P
<katymoe> yeah I try to keep a lid on it
<ELLIOTTCABLE> which probably reveals rather a lot about me, come to think about it.
<ELLIOTTCABLE> ugh facebook
<ELLIOTTCABLE> lol Hrorekr
<ELLIOTTCABLE> so I'm like, blocked, on my school-stuff
<ELLIOTTCABLE> Hrorekr: you around for a bit? :3
<ELLIOTTCABLE> oh btw hey katymoe,
<ELLIOTTCABLE> dunno if I asked yet but
<ELLIOTTCABLE> -didja @ katymoe
<purr> katymoe: didja write a paws yet? didja? didja!?
<Hrorekr> ELLIOTTCABLE, yep, just woke up
