[20:57] There was a Starsky and Hutch Gran Turino 64 but I can't find the pictue on the web anymore. It was pretty funny. [20:57] I'm glad brown came back in style. [20:57] Dang. You guys would have loved that one.

[21:52] I wonder why he did not color the 2,3,5,6 and 7 keys on that $1000 commodore. [21:52] schema I think your right, I used to do it before I got fastloader [21:52] <_Commodore_> for loading, a dir is ,8 [21:52] <_Six_> ,8,1 loads the file to the address specified by the two byte header [21:52] <_Six_> ,8 loads to $0801 [21:52] <_Commodore_> oops, I fncked that up [21:52] haha golan [21:53] I think the point was you could use ,8,1 which looks messy one the screen, but is still understandable and doesn't overwrite basic. [21:53] For people who down't have a cart :) [21:54] <_Commodore_> ty six, that is much more elegant an explanation [21:54] the old commodore dos wedge would do directory without overwriting basic [21:54] Lime-Mack: exactly! [21:55] <_Six_> btw, any odd number will suffice for the 1 [21:55] <_Six_> so load"*",8,9 if you like [21:55] <_Commodore_> didn't know that [21:55] <_Commodore_> what about even numbers? [21:56] <_Six_> always loads to 0801 I believe [21:56] I thought it was anything > 0? [21:57] <_Six_> Reminds me of something Jim Butterfield said, that we all know all this stuff that we think everyone knows, and never talk about because of that.

[22:14] Pictures of the soon be demolished MOS Technology building: http://68.165.120.234/temp/mos /mos.htm [22:14] Hey LR [22:14] C64 porn is overrated [22:15] Square nipples get old ;-) [22:15] {Snogpitch} my piano teach coveted my finger reach on the keybord [22:15] <_Six_> so squint [22:16] <_Commodore_> is that the building in deathbed vigil? [22:17] <_Six_> Wonder if there's anything interesting laying around in that building... [22:17] * _Six_ prepares a burlap sack and flashlight [22:17] Hoi Stephan [22:17] From those pics not likely, looks bare [22:17] Six: Didn't look like it from the pics. [22:18] TPUG needs to buy the building and make it the new home for WoC. [22:18] it was good pr0n in the day.. [22:18] Snogpitch, well I just might have to write something for 4Cs. Do it for 5Cs. Six should be carefull of what he asks for Oh I did send him those files for testing of the tools. [22:19] <_Six_> Aye, got 'em [22:19] <_Six_> Should have lab time tomorrow to look 'em over [22:19] Not a bad building. The problem is - if no one buys it to use it, it will only deteriorate until it becomes a serious hazard [22:19] {Snogpitch} Maybe we can look at the disk at tommorrows meeting? [22:20] * Moloch (moloch@arkanixlabs.com) Quit (Quit: ... it's always Satan, the fallen god, and there is always those in their search for god seem to find Satan instead ...) [22:20] Since when is the C128 power supply the same as the Amiga 500? [22:20] golan wheres that mos building? [22:20] _Six_ great. I put them togehter in the Zipped .D64 with the pasi system on a 1581. [22:20] Currently, looks to be still structurally sound but it is gutted. If I had the money to buy it and renovate it and have the need for such a building. [22:21] http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=011&category=4193&ssPageName=WDVW&ite m=320240978301&rd=1 [22:21] Amiga 500, Amiga 600, Amiga 1200, and Commodore 128 power supply. Tested on Amiga and Commodore 128 and is working and in very good condition. [22:21] Harlock - the url provided is the MOS building [22:21] http://68.165.120.234/temp/mos/mos.htm [22:21] no I mean what place not the url [22:21] <_Commodore_> is it this building? [22:21] <_Commodore_> http://tinyurl.com/yc3w5f [22:22] <_Commodore_> If not, is that building still standing? [22:23] Those buildings are in Pennsylvania. It's the Commodore Semiconductor Group building, *not* Commodore's headquarters where the Deathbed Vigil was filmed. That building is now used by QVC. [22:23] Wasn't there something about the MOS building an enviromental problem? [22:23] <_Commodore_> ah ok, thanks for clearing that up [22:23] The CSG building is a major environmental hazard that requires millions to clean up. It's all the heavy metals and chemicals from chip fab. [22:24] We had a member using his Amiga 500 PS on his 128 for a year before he realize the mistake- had no problems [22:24] golan: ok, that must be what I was thinking. [22:25] Currently those buildings are under the control of the Environmental Protection Agency and when the cleanup is done, down they'll come and the land will be sold. [22:25] Norristown facility, yes - the part that is the factory in the Deathbed vigil is what appears to be the MOS Building and that would be the building at this link: http://68.165.120.234/temp/m os/mos.htm [22:25] Omega1: Interesting as it has no 9VAC [22:25] Whereever you see the sign MOS Technology sign and the building in about all the links I seen that is based in Penn. is the Norristown Facility. [22:26] w*: You're doing that thing you do where you speak authoritatively about things you don't know anything about. :( [22:26] you listen to him? :) [22:26] <_Commodore_> I trust Golan more then you Wildstar, sorry [22:26] I'm also at a loss as to why you keep repeating the URL I shared. [22:26] brian damage :) [22:27] <_Commodore_> he found it [22:27] <_Commodore_> >:) [22:28] <_Commodore_> how is Brian these days? [22:28] damaged, apparently [22:28] Sir, I've seen what the facility looks like on various photos and all were the same building. Golan, I was using it and confirming the question - Is it the MOS Technology facility. The other photos, I would have to look up to get the URL. Your link is convenient. [22:28] heh, fine. I typoed that on purpose :) [22:28] <_Commodore_> :) [22:28] I saw an ad for help wanted in a traumatic brian injury clinic once. [22:28] Hey it gets worde if I am trusted more that wildstar {BG} [22:28] w*: I said it was the MOS Technology building when I posted the URL. [22:29] You've got a top hat, LR. Of course you can be trusted! [22:29] <_Commodore_> the beard makes me suspect [22:29] <_Commodore_> suspicious [22:30] <_Commodore_> LR:don't pick on W*, he is your friend [22:30] Speaking of top hats: http://xkcd.com/ [22:30] Ok, golan. The issue for demo is because the building is not in use like any other factory and the chemical/metals, ect. that leaked into the ground because the concrete cracked (settlement issue or whatever?) [22:31] Pna* I also have a beat up wide brimmed had with a C= button. And someplace hidden in this mess, a black beret with a red star. [22:31] Oh well.... a piece of C= history to be demolished. [22:31] _Commodore_ Ah I pick on everyone. Tis my nature. [22:31] maybe a shopping channel will buy it [22:31] Cold Snogpitch very cold [22:31] w*: I'm quite convinced that not even you understand the nonsense that comes out of your mouth. [22:32] <_Commodore_> you don't pick on Robert LR... [22:32] LR: Say something crazy. [22:32] <_Commodore_> so you don't pick on everyone [22:32] LR: Cool. :) [22:32] <_Commodore_> ok, time for W* impersonations [22:33] _Commodore_ thats because I ow him money [22:33] I like top hats. I have an English cap, myself. [22:33] One of the shopping channels did buy the West Chester Pennsyvania building [22:33] golan OK ah I like, Win... Sorry no just can't get it out during passover. [22:33] QVC? [22:33] <_Commodore_> It can't be enough [22:33] QVC [22:33] Whoops. Almost forgot! [22:33] LR: Hag Pesach Sameach. [22:33] <_Commodore_> How much money? [22:33] and no ? [22:35] golan thanks, and for later Gut Yom Tov [22:35] a bit off topic, anyone here a Jimmy Durante fan? [22:35] Not much of a seder this time around. [22:35] <_Commodore_> Take your hat off LR, turn it upside down and hold it in front of you. Now walk through the centre of town... [22:35] <_Six_> Sigh, that old MOS building looks pretty empty [22:35] * _Six_ puts all the doorknobs back in that burlap sack. [22:35] <_Commodore_> you'll have enough to replay him in no time [22:35] * golan sets mode: +v Omega1 [22:35] <_Commodore_> repay rather [22:36] <_Commodore_> ;) [22:36] Jimy Durante was good ;) [22:36] It's a symmetry thing. [22:36] _Commodore_ Nah there are enough people in town with coffee cans. Trying to raise the bread to send me away. [22:36] Friend of mine is looking for one of his songs something about half-tooth... [22:36] <_Commodore_> is that like blue-tooth? [22:37] nope, doesn't ring a bell here. [22:37] been too long. [22:37] ya, I looked thru the stuff I have access .... no hits there [22:37] <_Commodore_> send you away where? [22:38] of course there are alot of 78s that I don't have [22:38] LR your not being sent to coventry are you? [22:38] _Commodore_ Well I was paid to come here and teach at the college. They haven't made enough to pay me to leave. I was thinking Jaffa would be nice. [22:38] Nah dual Citizen so it would be Israel. Think they need my skills there from 3 years in the jungle with the IDF. [22:39] those guys were sure good! I got some Red Skeleton dvd's for Christmas . [22:39] I have never seen nor heard of the "Deathbed Vigil" video before. It is sad. [22:39] FFS! one hour to build a collection with Amarok. [22:40] <_Commodore_> No jungle in Jaffa [22:40] <_Commodore_> Dave Haynie made it [22:40] No, and not much IDF there either. [22:41] <_Commodore_> you can still buy it, or it comes on the Cloanto Amiga Forever CD [22:41] <_Commodore_> true [22:41] Ok gang, I gotta get some rest (LONG week). L8er all.

[22:49] <_Commodore_> have you sent it yet W* [22:49] <_Commodore_> post it on c.s.c? [22:49] We should put out a 'best of' book. His email to TPUG complaining about me and the chances of me showing up at CommVEx was a classic. [22:49] your email.... Didn't get registereed into my Contact list [22:50] <_Six_> How about the one where he tried to get me in trouble for something that happened when I wasn't even online? [22:50] Thta was a good one too. [22:50] Bah [22:50] Hold on, I'm being asked not to send that message [22:50] <_Commodore_> check your sent box [22:50] Some poeple live on drama [22:51] Have a good evening everyone...

If I don't know the answer, I'll look it up :) [23:18] Pna* we must start at the level of "In the beginning..." In order for me to understand. [23:21] In the beginning, God created the KIM I. :) [23:21] Stephan, Pelleas is in the channel list of users... [23:21] Si, I understand, just wanting to know if he was a bit active :) [23:22] Pna* a bit farther back to sprak gap for code, and the beloved glow of the vacuum tube with the 24vold dc plate cap voltage for the electromagnetic speakers. [23:22] maybe his busy chatting in #atari? [23:22] Ahh good one. [23:22] Hrm, I'm not that old. I know what a vacuum tube _is_ and I think they're pretty neat, but you've got the drop on me, chum. [23:22] * PnaBarista is a young punk [23:23] Hey on a Serious note...I dunno if I will make it to C4 or not, depends on my Job. They are think about sending me to Knoxville (sp?) starting that weekend :X [23:23] working on the weekend? [23:23] Knoxville is less than 5 hour trip [23:24] Well Not really, but I'm in the military so reporting and staying in the local area is a big thing.... [23:24] I would start on that Thursday before the expo [23:24] what is the longest period of time you could be away before you get listed as awol? [23:26] lol 10 Min after the start of the shift :) But they tell you before hand the "hour radius" you have from the local area--usually two hours when you work away from your home base. [23:27] * _Commodore_ is BACK from being AWAY (Pissing down with rain...). [23:27] bummer, so kidnapping would be out of the question then [23:27] * _Commodore_ is AWAY (be back later, gotta mind the baby :-)).

Maybe I could some how make it for Saturday, just would have to hope my car doesn't break down during the trip :) [23:28] note to self: never download a file over the Internet to your server when you're connected to it via a vpn... [23:29] Doh! [23:29] it seemed a good idea at the time... downloading it locally and then putting it on the server would have been orders of magnitude faster though [23:29] Saturday would be the day to pick out of the weekend [23:30] not too much would happen before 10am [23:31] * lordronin has is 40+ year old electronics books still Pna* [23:31] * Schema (~spam@810C7EC6.7EB95B52.84E6236E.IP) Quit (Quit: ) [23:32] * weirdwolf (~weirdwolf@NewNet-8735D888.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) has joined #c64friends [23:33] Howdy weirdwolf [23:33] Hey Snogpitch [23:34] *** Pelleas has been idle for 4 hours 55 minutes 24 seconds [23:35] bogax: ;-) Watch out.. there are those who idle for weeks.
