[03:28] well i at least be better looking :P [03:28] and if you can't tell, i'm pretty drunk today... :P [03:29] lol :P im 16 and refuse to drink D: [03:29] well not unless the recompilation is a recompilation to a homeless due :P [03:29] NOOOOOO [03:29] s/to/into/ [03:29] thankfully i dont dictate the terms of the recompile [03:30] compile me from source and make me ready to install :D [03:30] (weird) [03:30] that depends [03:31] are you licensed under the GPL? [03:31] YUS :O its my favorite [03:31] which version? [03:32] version 1? [03:48] i dunno D: [03:48] which version [03:48] D: [07:44] EARLY good morning to all [09:14] saying good morning before 4AM does not count [09:14] Good morning :) [09:16] morning IdleOne [09:33] Morning. [09:41] morning JonathanD [09:45] howdy. [10:10] I'm off to do my "storm" shopping :-D [10:10] lotsa milk and eggs and extra bread [10:11] and Teddy wants cookies [10:11] lotsa cookies :-D [10:11] fun. [10:11] always [10:11] Get at least 5 gallons of milk. [10:11] You'll need 5 gallons. No less. [10:11] maybe 6 [10:11] Possibly. [10:12] Teddy will need something to wash all those cookies down [10:13] I bought cases of water, and beans. [10:13] I'll probably get some hot dogs and rolls today. [10:13] For a good ol hurricane bbq. [10:14] don't tell Teddy [10:15] he'll want to come [10:17] you're welcome to come. I hear it might be rainy, though. [10:17] I should announce a geeknic on sunday and see what kind of responses I get :p [11:47] JonathanD: will this be a bring your own personal flotation device geeknic? ;-) [13:12] byofd geeknic. Sorry building a barricade across the driveway to reduce water intrusion from flooded street. Will need to repair it a lot all Sunday until the street empties down. [13:13] If I don't loose power, I could type in snide remarks every couple of hours for you geeknic'ers that are connected. [14:16] * waltman just had a nice pre-death storm brunch with some tasty peppered bacon I picked up at the farmers market yesterday [14:17] morning guys :D [14:20] bleh [14:20] this morning is bad [14:20] >.> [14:21] waltman: damn you, i wanted bacon today... but alas there is none >.> [14:21] TheEvilPhoenix: It's crazy wide bacon, too. 3 slices filled my frying pan! [14:21] i hear ya [14:21] still [14:21] i'd rather be eating huge bacon than no bacon [14:22] I just didn't think I'd be able to ride out the storm without bacon. [14:24] hehe [14:24] where in PA are ya? i'm in harrisburg, so depending on your location, storm may/may not hit here :/ [14:26] I'm just west of Philly. [14:26] ah [14:26] then said storm may have hit here already [14:26] or missed entirely [14:26] part of PA is under an emergency state [14:26] s/emergency/disaster emergency/ [14:27] [08/26/11 21:13:15] http://www.pema.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/governors_proclamations/4725 <--- governor of PA declared a state of disaster emergency. [14:27] No, it's still working its way up the coast. The main part of the storm isn't supposed to hit us until late tonight. [14:27] ugh [14:27] even here in harrisburg... [14:27] there's disaster preparedness going on [14:28] I live in a big solid old apartment building on top of a hill. Winds might be an issue, but flooding won't be. [14:29] heh [14:29] i'm on a first floor apartment nearby penn state harrisburg campus... [14:30] its on a hill, but flooding might be an issue [14:30] i already went to the hardware store, bought a crap ton of weather striping and huge boards [14:30] as well as stopped by a friend's and picked up my radio scanner [14:30] so i can listen in on police ;) [14:31] not to mention PEMA and FEMA [14:32] HBG looked reasonably safe on the last storm tracker I saw. [14:33] It looks like it's hugging the coast. Let it slam into NYC and NE instead of Philly. :) [14:33] lol [14:33] well, reasonably safe != entirely safe [14:33] we're supposed to get hit with the outer edge of stuff [14:34] My uncle's riding it out at his place outside of Rehoboth. [14:34] that's not going to be easy :P [14:34] No, but they're inland enough that they weren't in the mandatory evacuation zone. [15:02] im about 5min from limerick nucelear plant :P [15:03] i had to put all out stuff in our garage in case it blows away [15:17] rain rain rain rain [15:17] I am prepared [15:17] but should I call out of work? [15:29] heh [15:29] well thankfully over here... [15:29] i had to get furniture delivered [15:29] it arrived yesterday [15:30] hence all the weatherstripping for all the windows, doors, cracks, etc. on this apartment [15:30] not to mention the wooden boards :P [15:38] TheEvilPhoenix: izzat so's ur new furniture stays new ? [15:40] well [15:40] sorta [15:40] and so it doesnt get damaged by high winds [16:05] wow gnome3 really is hard to work with [16:05] I can't seem to do anything without 5 or 6 clicks. [16:05] does anyone know how to change the theme? [16:05] MutantTurkey: its not supported yet on ubuntu [16:05] dont people read? [16:05] :P [16:06] I don't use ubuntu... [16:06] don't people ever read? [16:06] then you are a blasphemer :P [16:06] howso? [16:06] its good ubuntu isn't using gnome3 because it's terrible. [16:06] I am hankering to try out Unity though [16:06] i heard though that gnome3 is shipping with ubuntu 11.10 [16:06] but that's only rumor [16:07] well I assume ubuntu will do the regular, ubuntu-izing of it. [16:12] Hands will be held. Kumbaya will be sung. [16:13] MutantTurkeyi have gnome3 on archlinux it sucks [16:13] You change the themes by editing the gnomeshell file [16:13] its a .css file so webdesign knowledge comes in handy :) [16:13] That sounds very unubuntu [16:13] i use ubuntu waltman dont worry [16:14] i have it running on 3/4 of my computers... [16:15] :P [16:16] sadin: archlinux is the best distro evar [16:16] you know why? because gnome3 on archlinux isn't some prissy fixed up version that ubuntu gets, it's actually what gnome3 is. [16:16] we are straight upstream, all we get is what the gnome3 gives us. [16:16] their product stinks without major distro hacks [16:16] [16:17] Mutantturkey you use arch too [16:17] ? [16:17] I only use arch... [16:17] I haven't used ubuntu since like 7.10 [16:17] i only have it on my latop my 3 other desktops are running 11.04 or 10.10 ubuntu [16:17] somewhere around there right jedijf? maybe it was 8.10 [16:18] I like alot of gnome3 things, but I hate what they took out [16:18] the things they added should have been piled ontop of the gnome2 experience. they got rid of too much goodness. [16:18] gnome3 isnt good in my opinion i use WMFS on ubunt and arch [16:18] i use scrotwm [16:18] and Trinity whenever I get it to compile. [16:18] scrotwm is awesome, but I can't increase or decrease the non-master windows [16:19] if master is vertical, I can't vertically adjust 2 non-master windows [16:19] but Trinity is my favorite by far. [16:19] * waltman confesses he runs debian, not ubuntu :) [16:19] waltman: :P [16:22] A while back I wrote a tabbed virtual terminal emulator [16:22] but next what I want to do is create a server based one. [16:22] so you launch the server, and whenever you execute the command, instead of launching another process it signals the server and creates a new window [16:23] the server would just run in the background all day [16:23] very small footprint already [16:23] I just need to work out how to do that, (probably dbus) and then handling errors from termials (if one breaks, they all do) [16:23] eh? [16:38] waltman thats ok because it still uses classic gnome [16:38] i dont judge [16:38] :) [16:38] classic gnome = deprecated. [16:38] it will suffer bitrot. [16:38] classic gnome = better then gnome3 :) [16:38] for now. [16:38] Trinity is the best <3 [16:39] everything good about kde3, up to date and with new features [16:39] http://wmfs.info [16:39] tiling window manager for the win with endless minimalism :) [16:39] sadin: I don't even use gnome. I'm still on windowmaker. :) [16:40] waltman lol :D [16:40] I've played with xfce a few times [16:42] wmfs is okay [16:42] it's not that minimal... [16:42] dwm is my favorite to be honest, and scrotwm is my perfect combination of dwm and configuration [16:42] I liked a lot of xfce, but I couldn't find anything to replace the dockapps I run. [16:42] xfce4.8 = gnome2.6 with less features. [16:43] someone actually wrote something to run dockapps on xfce, but it's kind of sucky. [16:43] yeah :| [16:43] http://trinitydesktop.org [16:43] packages availabe for debian + ubuntu [16:44] I am supposed to be in charge of getting arch packages built... but meh. [20:48] Did everyone run off to build blockades or empty out basements or something ? [20:48] MutantTurkey xfce is also twice as flexible for artistic customization and super fast because it uses openbox [20:48] im a linux custimizer so i love xfce4 and wmfs and that stuff [21:13] I hate customizing. Just give me an environment that'll run xterms and a web browser and otherwise stay out of my way :) [21:17] other than u 2, everyone else must be customizing basements or blockades and too busy to type. === InHisName1 is now known as HowdyDoody [21:54] waltman but for alot of people its an art :) [21:54] and linux does custimization the best :D [21:55] I actually just tried firing up xfce again. It seemed to have forgotten all my custimizations. [21:55] back on wmaker :) [21:55] or at least the crappy dockapp thingy did. [21:56] lol waltman try wmfs its great for getting work done i love tiling WMs [21:56] i used to use the gnome-terminal [21:57] now i use rxvt-unicode terminal emulator [21:57] cause its awesome :)
