[01:57] <andrew> Anyone else remember the days before modern browsers had the ability to undo the closing of a tab?
[01:58] <rmg51> I remember the days when you got a bowser from your ISP :-D
[01:59] <andrew> But how am I supposed to surf the web without aol?

[02:00] <andrew> *cringes knowing that there are still people like that*
[02:00] <andrew> Actually, I'm looking forward to using teachparentstech.com
[02:01] <MutantTurkey> andrew: what about those days?
[02:02] <andrew> I just take for granted how easy ctrl+shift+t has made my life, that I often forget about the struggle that used to occur.
[02:02] <rmg51> and of course everyone remembers that it was Microsoft that came up with the idea for tabbed browsing :-/
[02:04] <andrew> Dear wise men of this channel, what year did the first keyboards come out with the windows key?
[02:04] <rmg51> where would we be if not for Internet Explorer
[02:04] <andrew> (I'm too young to remember.)
[02:05] <MutantTurkey> andrew: i still haven't implemented that into my browser
[02:06] <pleia2> andrew: am I allowed to answer?
[02:06] <MutantTurkey> i haven't quite figured out how.
[02:06] <andrew> MutantTurkey: implemented what?
[02:06] <andrew> pleia2: sure
[02:06] <MutantTurkey> reopening closed tabs
[02:06] <andrew> Dear wise folk* of this channel, what year did the first keyboards come out with the windows key?
[02:06] <pleia2> they started coming out with win95
[02:06] <pleia2> so 94ish? I don't know exactly
[02:06] <andrew> pleia2: so, 95, or 94
[02:06] <pleia2> pretty sure
[02:07] <andrew> i knew win95 was the start of it, but I don't recall the year
[02:07] <MutantTurkey> i free all the memory of a tab when it closes in my browsers, so i'm not sure exactly how i would go about re-opening them. I'd have to save it to a disk cache or something
[02:07] <pleia2> that's when it became standard anyway, weird keyboards may have had them earlier
[02:07] <andrew> MutantTurkey: ctrl+shift+t
[02:07] <pleia2> win95 was the first windows to have a start menu though, which is the purpose of the win key

[02:08] <PennBot> Title: Windows key - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org)
[02:08] <pleia2> rmg51: ah, nice
[02:08] <andrew> I like the "Usage in non-Microsoft operating systems" section of that ^
[02:08] <erstazi> pleia2: but the windows key was originally developed for win3.1
[02:08] <pleia2> "originally introduced on the Microsoft Natural Keyboard before the release of Windows 95. This key became a standard key on PC keyboards since the release of the Windows 95 operating system."
[02:09] <erstazi> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_key#Usage_with_Microsoft_Windows << example
[02:09] <PennBot> Title: Windows key - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org)
[02:09] <erstazi> they had an extension or something, if I remember correctly
[02:09]  * erstazi remembers win3.1
[02:09] <pleia2> but 3.1 didn't have a start menu, what did it do?
[02:10] <andrew> the cube effect
[02:10] <pleia2> lol
[02:11] <erstazi> hahaha
[02:11] <erstazi> pleia2: I don't remember exactly
[02:11] <andrew> Ok, someone fire up your vm of 3.1 that you have sitting around
[02:11]  * rmg51 used 3.11
[02:11] <pleia2> http://www.michaelv.org/ ?
[02:11] <PennBot> Title: michaelv.org (at www.michaelv.org)
[02:11] <andrew> well aren't you fancy?
[02:11] <pleia2> aw, win key no worky
[02:12] <andrew> winkey + scroll makes it bigger
[02:12] <erstazi> pleia2: maybe this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Manager
[02:12] <PennBot> Title: Program Manager - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org)
[02:16] <rmg51> try ctrl+scroll
[03:00] <MutantTurkey>  its weird. my dad gets seemingly random and sudden urges to vaccum late at night. wtf.
[03:01] <jedijf> he's broken
[03:01] <jedijf> or......is it a dyson?
[03:01] <MutantTurkey> i don't understand
[03:01] <MutantTurkey> it is a crappy generic vaccuum cleaner.
[03:01] <jedijf> see first answer...
[03:01] <andrew> Once in a while I had those feelings at college
[03:01] <MutantTurkey> lol he just stopped again.
[03:02] <MutantTurkey> :| really aggrevating while trying to watch avatar.
[03:02] <andrew> granted, this was like the once every 3 months when I was finally like... this place needs it
[03:02] <MutantTurkey> andrew: thats accceptable.
[03:02] <andrew> Also, 10pm isn't late, it was closer to 1am
[03:03] <MutantTurkey> well. but still
[03:03] <MutantTurkey> i have a baby sister?
[03:03] <andrew> My senior year I cleaned occasionally before holding 20 person  meetings in the appartment
[03:03] <andrew> that's a question?
[03:03] <MutantTurkey> and extremely anal neighbors who once yelled at me for trekking the trash out to loudly
[03:03] <MutantTurkey> i was trying to justify why 10pm would be a bad time
[03:03] <erstazi> honestly, babies sleep through vacuuming
[03:04] <andrew> The only time babies don't sleep is when you are trying to sleep.
[03:04] <MutantTurkey> i wouldn't put it to a test either though
[03:04] <erstazi> it can even put a baby to sleep, if you vacuum
[03:04] <MutantTurkey> erstazi: thanks for the *great* tip
[03:05] <erstazi> yeah, you can tell who the new parents are when they try to be always so quiet around their newborns. They will learn that this will bite them later on!
[03:10] <MutantTurkey> i'll bear that in mind when i get married
[03:11] <erstazi> Have yinz seen the videos of kids playing with iphones? I should record my son playing with my N900. Hilarious
[03:12] <erstazi> He flips through the phone like a master, which is scary.
[03:14] <MutantTurkey> i sort of want to try out a n900
[03:14] <MutantTurkey> i feel like at this point, even though i'm only 16, i've already fallen far behind the times
[04:37] <InHisName> Does that mean MutantTurkey is a has been already ?
[05:30] <andrew> jw8z$M1;
[05:38] <ChinnoDog> ...
[05:39] <andrew> apparently my computer wasn't locked...
[05:39] <ChinnoDog> haha
[05:39] <ChinnoDog> That is a very secure password
[05:39] <andrew> Not anymore
[05:40] <ChinnoDog> ok, it /was/ a very secure password
[05:40] <ChinnoDog> apg?
[05:41] <andrew> apg?
[05:41] <ChinnoDog> PennBot: apg is the Automated Password Generator
[05:41] <PennBot> Gotcha!
[05:41] <andrew> nope
[05:44] <andrew> The worst part of that was that was my password at work...
[05:44] <andrew> I say "was" because I *just* changed it (it was set to expire tomorrow anyways).
[05:45] <ChinnoDog> I already exposed my work password here awhile back. haha
[05:45] <ChinnoDog> I changed it asap. It sucked because I was logged into a lot of systems.
[05:46] <andrew> Just change it to something that is said often in here and no one will be the wiser when you accidently say it
[05:48] <andrew> Like to: "PennBot:" or something
[05:48] <andrew> it has caps, lower case, and a symbol
[05:48] <andrew> and no one would think twice when you accidently enter it in here
[05:53] <andrew> well, that fun is done
[06:18] <ChinnoDog> PennBot doesn't have any numbers
[06:18] <PennBot> Dunno!
[06:19] <ChinnoDog> Maybe if he were PennB0t..
[23:49] <jthan> andrew: how's the cr-48?
[23:57] <jthan> Anyone rush out to buy a nexus S?
