<Genia4_> digits in german sound so awful
<mauke> mehlstaeubchen = flour mote?
<Genia4_> much more awful than the rest of the language
<Genia4_> I mean, teaching a small kid to count
<mauke> faellt = falls
<Genia4_> sounds like preaching some sort of satanistic crap to him
<binrapt> Meal mote or so? :)
<binrapt> Staeubchen doesn't make any sense to me anyway
<mauke> meal = mahl, not mehl
<_m_> The problem is the word "auch" and the word "Da". Those are really hard to translate in this context.
<Genia4_> what's schon?
<binrapt> mauke: dict.leo.org also lists meal :/
<binrapt> Flour is the common word I suppose
<mauke> oh, interesting
<binrapt> Diminutive of an uncountable word like Staub doesn't make any sense to me
<moralcode> isnt auch = too/also ?
<_m_> "Mehlstaeubchen" would be something like a "flour dustling"
<Genia4_> "bread" in the bible often refers to full meals
<binrapt> Dustling, hah
<Genia4_> what's daneben?
<Genia4_> na und = you understnad, right?
<binrapt> Genia4_: Can have different meanings
<Genia4_> understand*
<Genia4_> binrapt: in that context
<mauke> alongside, off target
<Genia4_> aha
<_m_> "na und" == "so what"
<Genia4_> _m_: oh :(
<Genia4_> ok, so when baking a cake, not everything goes according to plan
<Genia4_> and sometimes some flour dustling <complete sentence>
<binrapt> "Sometimes a flour dustling gets lost. So what?"
<Genia4_> ok, now what does all that mean?
<_m_> yeah, that's probably as good as it can get.
<Genia4_> losing some flour isn't the end of the world
<_m_> Genia4_: this was when talking about transport of nuclear waste.
<Genia4_> oh, makes sense
<binrapt> What she basically says is "Storing nuclear waste is a dirty business. So what?" :)
<Genia4_> you have some weird proverbs over there :(
<binrapt> It's not really a proverb...
<binrapt> At least not to me ;) may depend on the region
<binrapt> I'm not really familiar with Germany
<Genia4_> binrapt: you aren't German?
<_m_> I never heard the word "Mehlstaeubchen" before.
<binrapt> I am
<Genia4_> what are you then?
<binrapt> _m_: Me either
<binrapt> Genia4_: I am German
<Genia4_> 23:53:43 < binrapt> I'm not really familiar with Germany
<binrapt> Yes, so?
<ChillYo> i'm using boost::function<void ()> to p*** a callback into a function (I create the value p***ed in with boost::bind), but I'd like to expand it to be able to handle functions with variable numbers of parameters... is there a way to do that?
<Genia4_> so that's kinda weird...
<Genia4_> ChillYo: vector of boost::any's?
<binrapt> Hmmm function pointer to ...? Urgh. Never did anything like that
<_m_> Good night, #C++
<Genia4_> night
<binrapt> Night
<Genia4_> today's German lesson was most tiresome
<binrapt> Carpe noctem
<Genia4_> huh?
<binrapt> Lingua latina bona est
<Genia4_> isn't that latin?
<Genia4_> yeah it is
<binrapt> Recte dicis
<ChillYo> Genia thats a good idea... this is kinda how I would like to do it though, when I call the function, I'd like to do this: CreateCallback(boost::bind(&MyCl***::MyFunc,this));
<ChillYo> or rather that's what I'm already doing
<a> C++ has so many scary features
<ChillYo> but I'd like to also be able to p*** it something where MyFunc takes a parameter
<Genia4_> I've never used bind, can't help :(
<ChillYo> ok thanks!
<Genia4_> for what?
<ChillYo> for trying to help
<Genia4_> dude, this live album is one of maiden's best
<binrapt> I can't stand live stuff
<binrapt> Inferior quality
<Genia4_> binrapt: it's fun when you're actually there
<Genia4_> and if you couldn't be, it's fun to fantasize you were
<Genia4_> plus, sometimes live perfomanced outperform studio
<binrapt> I've never been to a concert
<binrapt> I can't stand loud music anyway
<Genia4_> binrapt: I have once, and the atomosphere is totally awesome
<Genia4_> even if the band isn't that good
<binrapt> Even though I am into death metal and black metal
<Genia4_> me neither, loud ****s
<Genia4_> I don't have problem with death and black
<Genia4_> it's just the growls...
<binrapt> Well, then you do
<Genia4_> I don't have problem with the dark music
<Genia4_> I love that stuff
<Genia4_> but the growls take all the fun out of it
<Genia4_> it's a waste of a voice... some death singers have great voice
<Genia4_> you don't have to growl lyrics about death and stuff, they can be sung too
<binrapt> Of course, but it wouldn't be death metal then :)
<Genia4_> another problem with death metal is the showoffness
<Genia4_> and the following cults
<Genia4_> you wanna play depresseing music, your problem
<Genia4_> you don't have to dress up like a clown
<Genia4_> and you don't have to make your fans dress up like that either
<binrapt> Death metal isn't that bad in that aspect
<binrapt> Black metal is :)
<Genia4_> I don't know the difference between them
<binrapt> http://www.supremebrutality.com/fest/festpics03/necrophagist2.jpg <- death metal
<Genia4_> but you know what I mean
<binrapt> http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/8c/Immortal.jpg/180px-Immortal.jpg <- black metal
<binrapt> Haha
<Genia4_> what's cradle of filth?
<binrapt> Pop
<binrapt> Pop/rock
<Genia4_> before they were famous ;)
<binrapt> 00:05:02 <binrapt> Pop/rock
<Genia4_> ok, slayer
<binrapt> Thrash metal
<Genia4_> you're annoying
<binrapt> Huh?
<Genia4_> anyway, I'm more into heavy/power metal
<Genia4_> german metal <3
<Genia4_> helloween are so awesome
<Genia4_> and so can't spell :)
<binrapt> :(
<binrapt> Night
<Genia4_> night
<morfic> don't wear out the lbl people
<Java4644> can you declare a function with no return type?
<KimmoA> void
<Java4644> what about without even void?
<KimmoA> Why would you wanna do that?
<Java4644> I'm seeing it in someone else's code
<Java4644> and it seemed odd
<KimmoA> Are you sure his/her code compiles? ;)
<Java4644> yep hehe
<Java4644> it's in a namespace though
<Java4644> dunno if that matters
<KimmoA> Sure sounds weird to me...
<Java4644> aha
<Java4644> seems it wasn't a function
<Java4644> it was a constructor
<KimmoA> :S :)
<Java4644> looks like a function to me ....
<KimmoA> =S
<Symm_mmyS> constructors don't return anything
<Symm_mmyS> in regular functions, void still exists though
<Symm_mmyS> probably for historical reasons
<Java4644> yeah
<Java4644> makes for clearer code
<KimmoA> Why would they take away "void"?
<KimmoA> It serves a clear purpose...
<Symm_mmyS> to please Java4644 =)
<Java4644> but I'm not sure how to tell a constructor from a function
<Java4644> they look the same to me
<roopjm> a constructor has the same name as the cl***... how is that a function?
<Symm_mmyS> well, a constructor *is* a function
<Genia4_> no return type in c99 means int
