* GeekyAdam waves. | 00:35 | |
jedijf | _nomad: re: flux ...nike (just do it), then you can report to us | 00:48 |
_nomad | it crashed and burned for me... | 00:48 |
_nomad | havent dug into it too much yet | 00:49 |
jedijf | that answers that :( | 00:49 |
_nomad | shame, it's a great app | 00:49 |
jedijf | _nomad: you did mean the window manaer right? | 00:49 |
_nomad | no... | 00:49 |
jedijf | manager too | 00:49 |
_nomad | http://stereopsis.com/flux/ | 00:49 |
_nomad | it's a program that changes the color temperature of your screen based on time of day | 00:50 |
_nomad | makes it a little easier on the eyes using the computer at night | 00:50 |
GeekyAdam | i thought you were referring to a fluxbox derivitive as well | 00:51 |
_nomad | ah... | 00:52 |
_nomad | nope | 00:52 |
_nomad | should have clarified | 00:52 |
_nomad | its a great app - i use it on linux & mac, but I believe they have it for windows and iPhone/iPad as well | 00:52 |
GeekyAdam | seems like a good idea. we've all tried going to bed after 6 hours in front of the monitor and your eyes won't close | 00:53 |
InHisName | Hello everyone | 00:53 |
MutantTurkey | hello | 00:53 |
MutantTurkey | what's up? | 00:54 |
MutantTurkey | how did the whole thing work out? | 00:54 |
InHisName | I finally found out how to turn off 'hover-click' of mouse arrow. | 00:56 |
InHisName | f.lux seem interesting, 'cept my computer is in basement and NO sun issues there. | 00:57 |
_nomad | hehe | 00:57 |
_nomad | its also great if you are prone to waking early and working | 00:58 |
_nomad | fixes that "too bright" feelin | 00:58 |
_nomad | :) | 00:58 |
MutantTurkey | flux? | 01:01 |
_nomad | yeah | 01:03 |
_nomad | http://stereopsis.com/flux/ | 01:03 |
jedijf | _nomad: kinda works in 11.04 | 01:03 |
_nomad | yeah, i was using it in 11.04 | 01:04 |
jedijf | rmg51: and it has and indicator app up in panel | 01:04 |
_nomad | yep | 01:04 |
jedijf | i saw on the homepage someone asked about 11.10 repo availability | 01:05 |
MutantTurkey | I actualy already wrote this | 01:07 |
MutantTurkey | just very primitively | 01:07 |
MutantTurkey | it just set my display to different settings at a different time | 01:08 |
MutantTurkey | but same concept | 01:08 |
MutantTurkey | glad someone has really well done it | 01:08 |
_nomad | that's pretty cool | 01:13 |
_nomad | i'd like to see software that goes even further in that direction | 01:14 |
_nomad | maybe changing window colors throughout the day, etc. | 01:14 |
_nomad | based on weather | 01:14 |
MutantTurkey | ... | 01:14 |
MutantTurkey | you really should just use a light sensor | 01:14 |
MutantTurkey | most phones have them, and computers do to | 01:15 |
MutantTurkey | in fact you could even use the webcam to do polling ever few minutes to get the light level | 01:15 |
MutantTurkey | then adjust to it | 01:15 |
MutantTurkey | _nomad: you might inside or something | 01:15 |
MutantTurkey | wow, skype for linux is actually nicer than the windows version, which I find unbearable | 01:43 |
MutantTurkey | the linux version is very light and simple | 01:43 |
JonathanD | For now, MutantTurkey | 01:47 |
JonathanD | For now. | 01:47 |
MutantTurkey | well now that microsoft owns it... | 01:47 |
MutantTurkey | I dount we'll get anything | 01:48 |
JonathanD | They said they would keep making it. | 01:54 |
MutantTurkey | wow | 01:55 |
MutantTurkey | it is eating my cpu | 01:55 |
MutantTurkey | the video drawing | 01:55 |
MutantTurkey | must be doing crappy api calls | 01:55 |
MutantTurkey | no video accell or anything | 01:55 |
MutantTurkey | even remotely | 01:55 |
MutantTurkey | at lest its multithreaded | 02:04 |

JonathanD | beta0x64: We don't operate on this silly day/night cycle, beta0x64 | 07:14 |
pavel__ | i gave up on that a while ago | 07:24 |

pavel__ | where at again? | 07:33 |
beta0x64 | a small crap university south of pittsburgh | 07:34 |
beta0x64 | I shouldn't be so harsh | 07:34 |
beta0x64 | california university of pennsylvania. it's a cheap state school. | 07:34 |
beta0x64 | http://calu.edu | 07:34 |
beta0x64 | I'm just bitter because I had to transfer from the university of pittsburgh for $ reasons, pavel__ | 07:35 |
pavel__ | aw i understand | 07:38 |
pavel__ | im sorr to hear that | 07:38 |
beta0x64 | its okay. I'll be in less debt upon graduation. | 07:38 |
pavel__ | but i actually have heard of cal uni in pa | 07:38 |
beta0x64 | I just hope I can find work as easily. | 07:38 |
pavel__ | yes, and you can always tr to get into upit to get a different degree | 07:39 |
beta0x64 | well the cost would be the same | 07:39 |
beta0x64 | that's the issue. tuition went from like $20,000 a year to $6,000 at calu | 07:39 |
beta0x64 | lol | 07:39 |
pavel__ | phew | 07:46 |
pavel__ | good deal tho | 07:46 |
pavel__ | its a decent school | 07:47 |
pavel__ | its a decent school? | 07:47 |
pavel__ | oops | 07:47 |
pavel__ | i was making a statement not a q | 07:47 |

beta0x64 | it is a decent school, but you know | 07:47 |
beta0x64 | you get what you put in | 07:47 |
beta0x64 | I plan on being a java developer. | 07:48 |
beta0x64 | Where do I want to go? Great question | 07:48 |
pavel__ | i dont like java but im good at it... i think | 07:48 |
beta0x64 | it's an academic language | 07:48 |
beta0x64 | it's well taught at many schools | 07:48 |
beta0x64 | I personally don't like Java either but I don't have much choice | 07:49 |
* pavel__ is selftaught | 07:49 | |
beta0x64 | if I want to be a PHP/web-backend dev., I would be taken less seriously I think | 07:49 |
beta0x64 | the pay-grade is much better for a Java developer. I don't want to go to C or C++ because ... well blah | 07:49 |
beta0x64 | at least I know I can code for Java on virtually everything | 07:50 |
beta0x64 | and I am starting to explore android devel, which is fun | 07:50 |
beta0x64 | essentially I have the most experience in PHP and Java | 07:51 |
beta0x64 | I can still code C better than anyone else in Computer Programming I haha | 07:51 |
beta0x64 | pavel__, what do you do? | 07:52 |
pavel__ | thats because c is better | 07:58 |
pavel__ | c++, linux, android/java | 07:58 |
pavel__ | i like to fix shit, and always learn new shit | 07:59 |
pavel__ | is cursing aloowde here | 07:59 |
pavel__ | *allowed | 07:59 |
beta0x64 | I dont think so | 07:59 |
beta0x64 | but I dont give a shit :) | 07:59 |
beta0x64 | I think this channel uses Ubuntu CoC | 07:59 |
pavel__ | but either way, im currently enrolled at bucks counnty community college | 08:01 |
pavel__ | gen engineering | 08:01 |
pavel__ | and i gave up pretty early. think ima just go to trade school for now | 08:01 |
beta0x64 | what do you want to do? | 08:01 |
pavel__ | i want to work with linux servers | 08:02 |
pavel__ | or C++ programming | 08:02 |
pavel__ | ideally game programming | 08:02 |
beta0x64 | what have you made? | 08:03 |
pavel__ | not much | 08:03 |
pavel__ | ive played with opengl | 08:03 |
pavel__ | realized i need an engine | 08:03 |
pavel__ | and have been stuck since | 08:03 |
pavel__ | im not a graphic artist so i cant model fast | 08:03 |
beta0x64 | can I give you a tip man? I wish I did this earlier while I had that type of specific ambition | 08:04 |
pavel__ | yeah, but like | 08:07 |
pavel__ | i need a better job to be able to invest money into programming supplies | 08:08 |
