nox-Handkwwii: Great that there might be interest for it =] Won't be done with it before next week most likely, got two other projects to finish for next week, and this one is also due next week, so I've got my work cut out =D16:18
kwwiinox-Hand: keep up the good work :-) let me know when you think it is done17:46
nox-Handkwwii: Will do =)17:46
nox-HandCurrently working on a report for chemistry >_> My groupmate just decided to ditch me since "I can't be bothered since I will be switching school next year and my grades don't matter here anyway since I've been accepted" :|17:46
thorwilnand_: hi! do you delete double posts on brainstorm?19:36
thorwilthis would be a candidate: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/8277/19:36
thorwilduring any kind of submitting data is the worst time for a browser or the connection to act up ...19:37
nand_thorwil: sure!19:38
nand_strange, you should not be able to double post...19:38
thorwilnand_: oh, and the great weather kept me from working, but i will get back to the help icons this weekend.19:39
nand_meaning, there is a minimum interval of 1 minutes between two idea submission19:39
nand_thorwil: hehe, so do I :) thanks19:39
thorwilnand_: it was a very bad idea to hit the back button ... but i was waiting for a timeout which didn't happen19:39
nand_or you happened to hit a very (un)lucky race condition...19:40
nand_thorwil: eh did you see your stats on the very-new user page? :)19:40
thorwilnand_: my stats? nope19:41
nand_http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/contributor/thorwil/19:41
nand_seems your ideas are not so popular :s19:41
thorwil*shrug*19:42
nand_and just for fun, I find a killer: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/contributor/7K/19:42
nand_found19:42
thorwilnand_: my system wide shorcut conf idea has some dupes ... it's more defined, though :)19:43
nand_hehe. Yes, I think the next thing that will need change is the dupe thing19:44
nand_lots of ideas are almost dup, but no dup19:44
thorwilnand_: the math captcha is much much nicer than the double line letters19:44
nand_thorwil: I never got these two lines... I have seen complaits about it19:44
nand_for me, it's always a single line19:45
thorwilstrange19:45
nand_I've asked stgraber to move along19:46
stgraberhi there19:46
thorwilnand_: huh?19:46
nand_stgraber: "the math captcha is much much nicer than the double line letter"19:46
nand_stgraber: I've seen quite a lot of complaints about this19:46
thorwilhi stgraber19:46
nand_an idea?19:46
nand_I never encountered this19:47
stgraber"double line letter" <-- what do you mean by that ?19:47
thorwiljust today i needed like 4 attempts with the letter captcha, because it showed not only letters in 2 lines, but even had cases of letters exactly lining up vertically19:47
* nand_ is trying to find the "idea" describing this pb19:47
=== nand_ is now known as nand
stgraberthorwil: browser ?19:48
thorwilstgraber: sometimes the captcha letters appear in 2 lines. ff as it comes with hardy19:48
nandstgraber: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/7079/19:48
nanda good description here19:49
stgrabererk, I never had that issue ...19:49
nandso do I19:49
stgraberCaptcha can easily be changed, the problem being that the math captcha alone is in my opinion too easy to work around19:49
nandwhat about the suggested http://recaptcha.net/?19:50
thorwildo you keep the browser window at full width all the time?19:50
stgraberyep19:50
nandok, did not pass the review, I forgot :s19:50
stgraberrecpatcha is not approved by Canonical19:50
stgraberotherwise I would use it (I do for my own website)19:50
thorwilis there a problem with the math thing?19:51
stgraberyes, a 10 lines long script can workaround it :)19:51
stgraberany coder can make a spam bot solving those math stuff19:51
nandthe letter one should not be any harder to skip19:52
stgraberit's because it's heavily using CSS positioning stuff19:53
stgraberyou can't just parse the page and takes 2 values, do some math and push the result19:53
stgraberimages captcha would be better but for some reasons it doesn't work at all19:53
thorwilhad to deal with youtubes image captcha today. first attempt failed, no fun19:54
stgrabernand: http://blog.qa.ubuntu.com/admin/user/captcha/captcha/examples (requires admin access)19:56
stgraberwe can maybe replace the CSS one by the ASCII art one19:56
nandoh yeah, it's a nice one :)19:57
stgraberdone19:59
* nand is writing the announcement20:00
