asacnext cycle is another chance17:19
eagles0513875ahhh ok17:19
eagles0513875:( well bind wood is ready just few things i need to finish up17:19
av`eagles0513875, I've heard this latest phrase like 200 times now17:22
eagles0513875:(17:23
av`if I get logs I think I can write a book with all these phrases17:23
eagles0513875i guess im not cut out to be a dev :(17:23
jcastrodon't let it get you down, freezes cut everyone!17:24
bdrungeagles0513875: m-d 0.17 will tell you if you made a packaging mistake17:24
asaceagles0513875: watch commits we do to the extension branches17:24
asacand try to learn from that17:24
eagles0513875asac: i dunno how much i would learn i actually learn from trying17:24
eagles0513875jcastro: i just feel like i havent had give enough time to bind wood extension i was working on17:25
asaceagles0513875: then try to replay the stuff we do locally17:25
asace.g. look what was done17:25
asacuncommit it locally17:25
asacthen do it on your own ;)17:25
eagles0513875you know what i will probably finish that up this evening once i finish printing these notes17:25
asacwhatever, do it as an excersize17:25
av`eagles0513875, bindwood package is easy and it's like 3 weeks you're working on it17:25
asacwe will do that on the branch and then you can compare if you did the same17:26
asacthat gives you feedback on what you did17:26
eagles0513875av`: i have started lecutres and im still trying to get back into a routine17:26
av`eagles0513875, I'm at university and I have plenty of stuff to study17:26
av`plus lessons, and many more stuff17:26
av`so if you don't wanna learn just say so17:27
eagles0513875i do17:27
eagles0513875i love linux i love the kubuntu community17:27
eagles0513875i have tried other distros and always end up back on kubuntu17:27
eagles0513875so something is being done right here17:27
av`I keep hoping that what ikonia said is not true17:28
eagles0513875i admit time management is what i lack17:28
eagles0513875well i did and completed the first task asac assigned me17:28
asaceagles0513875: yes. thats ok17:29
asaci dont think you lack the willingness to work17:29
asaci am not yet sure what blocks you. i dont think its time17:29
asacits probably just the way you approach stuff17:29
asaclike: if you do something ... finish it with all the work required and then do something else17:30
asacoften its harder to start to do things then to think about starting it17:30
eagles0513875asac: its time management i need to come up with a schedule that works for me in regards to helping out here and with studies17:30
asacso take 1h ... do the task17:30
asacdone17:30
asaceagles0513875: right. but you chat enough to have that time ;)17:30
eagles0513875true17:30
asacso time management might be a general issue ;) ... but i don think its the problem for this17:30
asacits really the way you approach things ... like not-getting-started17:31
eagles0513875will get onto finishing bindwood after i print out my notes17:31
asacopen the editr... just do it (TM) ;)17:31
asacrather than thinking 30 minutes if you have enough time to do it ;)17:31

eagles0513875bdrung: is that necessary to document though20:03
bdrungeagles0513875: yes, every commit needs a comment (otherwise it will be aborted)20:04

bdrungeagles0513875: 2. the Provides, and Enhances missing1. then remove zip from Build-Depends20:18

LLStarksmicahg. sup.20:31
micahghi LLStarks20:31
LLStarksi'm not sure why you need a screenshot for that bug i filed.20:32
LLStarksit's fitt's law.20:32
LLStarksthere is not enough separate in terms of pixels.20:32
micahgLLStarks: I don't see the issue, when the menu is open, it's open20:32
micahgare you using the standard icon set?20:32
LLStarksyes.20:32
micahgthe back button should be big enough20:32
LLStarksand i've triggered the bug 12 times today.20:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 12 in rosetta ""Next 10 messages" changes Display Settings" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1220:33
micahgI'm using the smaller icons and I don't have the issue20:33
LLStarksstupid bot.20:33
LLStarkswhat icon set?20:33
eagles0513875heheh20:33
* eagles0513875 wonders what would happen if i added AI to the bots would they rise up and rebel like in i robot20:34
LLStarksit's still less than 10 pixels no matter the icon size.20:34
micahgi don't remember, but my icons are smaller now20:34
micahgdo you have the issue opening a new window?20:35
LLStarksno.20:35
LLStarksmy mouse is pretty expensive, but sometimes i veer too high.20:35
micahgso, when hitting the back button you open a new window?20:35
LLStarksno.l20:35
LLStarksno. a new window is accidentally opened instead of going back.20:36
bdrungeagles0513875: you need to finish a ff extension before adding ai to the bog - so we are safe :p20:36
LLStarksbecause they are close together.20:36
eagles0513875bdrung: i know i have yet to learn AI in my course that will be next yr god willing lol20:36
micahgI don't see how that's possible20:36
LLStarksyou accidentally click file>new window20:36
micahgLLStarks: can you do a screencast?20:36
LLStarksno i won't20:36
micahgwhy noT?20:37
LLStarksi believe i've explained the bug.20:37
LLStarkswhen trying to click the back button, one has the tendency to overshoot the button and click file.20:37
bdrungeagles0513875: i studied it last year20:38
eagles0513875is it worth learning20:38
eagles0513875i was going ot take that since i have to choose 6 half credits next yr that and neural networks20:38
micahgLLStarks: I'm sorry, I just don't see how that's possible unless there's a lack of motor control or the mouse is set to move too fast20:38
micahgno offense intended20:38
eagles0513875i already have an idea for my thesis involving ai and possibly neural networks for speech recognition software20:38
LLStarks400dpi right now.20:39
LLStarksgoes as high as 800dpi20:39
micahgmaybe asac would have some insight20:39
LLStarksi have fine control of the mouse. the problem lies in the upper boundary of back and lower boundary of file.20:39
LLStarksthey don't overlap, but they are very close.20:40
micahgyes, but why are you aiming so high is my question?20:40
LLStarksi don't20:40
LLStarksit just lands there.20:40
micahgthe button seems big enough, even on the small size ones20:40
LLStarksit is big enough, but it requires effort to stop in the middle and not near the edges of the button20:41
micahgsorry, I've been looking in 3.6, I j 3.5ust pulled up20:41
micahgok, unless you are above the line, it doesn't open the file menu20:41
micahgand that button is big20:41
micahgso, if there's a problem with the mouse driver, that's another issue20:42
micahgand the back button is highlighted when you hover over it20:42
LLStarkstry swinging from the bottom right to top left of the screen20:42
LLStarkswith your mouse.20:43
micahgno problem for me, idk, that's why I'd like to see what's going on...but feel free to ask someone else20:43
LLStarksdoes shutter do screencasts?20:43
bdrungeagles0513875: i studied only the basics (6 ects points - one term). the first half was interesting. i dislike the second - probabilistic ai20:44
* micahg is looking up Fitt's law20:44
eagles0513875not sure what my syllabus will be like but its gotta be an interesting topic20:45
micahgLLStarks: gtk-recordmydesktop is pretty nice20:45
LLStarksread my mind20:45
eagles0513875night yall20:46
eagles0513875bdrung: will work on finishing up the last touches to bindwood so i can start on the next one20:47
micahgLLStarks: you're not going to like 3.6...20:48
micahgicons are smaller20:48
LLStarksthat sucks20:48
micahgidk what to tell you20:49
micahgthe gui seems to be very good about not opening the menu unless you are above the line above the button20:49
LLStarksit's still a fitt's law issue20:51
LLStarksmaybe 4.0's new ui will fix it20:51
LLStarkschrome does a good job  preventing this sort of bug.20:51
micahgI read a document describing the law, but I still don't see it20:53
LLStarksremember the trough-border scrollbar issue?20:55
LLStarkssame thing.20:55
LLStarksyou had to aim for the center of the scrollbar.20:55
LLStarksclicking the right bound wasn't an option20:55
micahgthat seems like a more conventional application of Fitt's law20:58
LLStarksanyway, brb21:00
ftaMook_sb, stevel: still no fix?21:37
Mook_sbfta: with no bug filed in an extended release crunch, not likely :(21:37
Mook_sb(the bug being, we don't understand --with-system-sqlite at all)21:38
ftajust wondering what i should answer to users complaining about lack of upgrades21:38
ftamaybe i should just delete the ppa21:38
ftajcastro, do you think you could find someone to take care of the songbird package & its ppa? i want to drop the ball21:40
ftaasac, micahg: ^^, unless one of you is interested..21:40
micahgit's tempting for me...21:41
micahghow often is there breakage?21:41
ftanot often, but when it happens, it can last a while unless you fix it yourself21:42
micahgfta: I'd be willing to give it a try21:42
ftavery different from chromium where i can easily motivate upstream to fix it21:42
jcastrofta: :-/ ok I can look for someone21:42
micahgfta: would you mind tutoring me in how your bot works, maybe another time21:43
ftajcastro, let's try with micahg ;)21:43
ftamicahg, sure21:43
micahgok, I have a server I can deploy it to, but I won't be able to start until next week21:43
ftamicahg, good21:44
ftabut you'll start with a broken build :P21:44
micahgnp, I'm used to that now :)21:44
ftathis time, it's not a patch21:45
micahgok, well, I'll see if I can figure it out21:45
ftabut it needs a new patch as upstream is apparently unwilling to fix it directly21:45
micahgbrb, need to see if sound comes back after reboot21:46
bdrungasac: i only upload adblock-plus22:11
bdrungasac: i need sleep now, could do more tomorrow22:12
ftahm, my usb devices/keys are no longer auto-mounted, wtf?22:31
=== stevel_ is now known as stevel
asacfta: 3g?23:00
micahgasac: do you need that patch from me?23:01
ftanope, data key23:01
asacmicahg: sorry i was hidden in a dark room today so far23:01
asacmicahg: what patch ;)?23:01
asacthe update.locale?23:01
micahgyeah23:01
asacmaybe tell me what exactly you will do ;)23:01
asaci think touching that file will avoid getting one more patch ;)23:02
micahgok, I was going to remove the %LOCALE% string from the update.url pref23:02
micahgsince we don't use update.url anyways23:02
micahgand it only needs to be in 3.5 as 3.6 doesn't have this issue23:02
ftamicahg, added you to the songbird-daily team so you push to the ppa, whenever you're ready23:06
ftafor the branch, it's owned by mozillateam like all firefox & xul branches23:06
micahgok, so I'll still have to propose merges for bze23:08
micahg*bzr23:08
micahgbut I can upload to the ppa23:08
ftaI can also change the ownership of the branch23:10
ftabut if you run the bot yourself, it doesn't really matter, you can make it use any branch you want23:11
micahgok23:12
ftaattempting a last resort reboot to fix my usb problems :P (i hate reboots)23:19
