derekvwhats the typographic term for parts of the letter that go below the line01:43
Blazeixdescender01:45
rick_h_yea, think you can adjust things like line-height in css to adjust how that descender fits around but not sure tbh01:46
derekvI can't recreate the issue where the buttons seem cropped in the android bookie client01:47
derekvBut in the ui desiner I can notice the tail on the g is a bit cropped01:47
rick_h_ugh, that sucks that it breaks down to device testing like that01:47
derekvso I'm working to eliminate that, i get rid of it in the ui designer, then run it on the phone and it appears there (where it wasn't before)01:48
rick_h_can you just leave like a 10px or something bottom gutter to help with all that?01:48
derekvi'm trying to use a reletive pixel measure01:48
derekv"sp" which is supposed to be fixed by user prefrence of font size, hardcoding the font to sp and the button height as well01:49
rick_h_em type thing?01:49
rick_h_can you set the line height (css like) to something off the sp (em) then?01:49
derekvyea01:50
derekvsetting both to sp01:50
derekvfont was 15sp (which apperently is defautlt) and button height was 3301:51
derekvsetting the font to 13sp and button height to 33sp fixes it on both my phone and the UI designer but my confidence in the process is shot01:52
derekvI don't understand what is gaurenteed by the model01:52
derekvdropbox down for anyone else?02:00
rick_h_yea, error page here as well02:03
derekvnew york02:06
derekv?02:06
derekvbut then they would have been down for a while...02:06
derekvnot that i'd probably notice02:06
jjesse-homei was able to use dropbox earlier today02:09
jjesse-homebut it was really slow02:09
rick_h_cool, seems to work nice here02:09
rick_h_buttons line up fine02:09
rick_h_little extra space bettween them, but all good02:09
derekvcool02:09
rick_h_I like the descriptions for sure02:09
jjesse-homedropbox is up for me but really really slow02:09
rick_h_definitely needs more than 10 results on the N702:10
derekvoh yea02:10
derekvyea i'll fix that now if possible02:10
derekvshould be easy02:10
derekvlater/now/soon it will be configurable02:11
rick_h_but yea, if the count and the redirect where fixed up I'd say it'd be a good second release point for it02:11
rick_h_thanks for poking at it, very cool02:11
derekvthen some sort of unending list can be considered02:11
rick_h_someone in copenhagen was asking if I still ever hacked on my bookmark app and I got to say how not only that, but one guy added RSS support and another worked on a basic android app02:12
rick_h_community at work :)02:12
rick_h_<302:12
rick_h_ok, time to take a medically assisted bed time. Night all.02:12
rick_h_see you on the TGIF side02:13
derekvbest of luck02:13
derekvI like the descriptions better as well02:20
jrwreni'm watching Iron Sky. Good god, this movie is terrible.02:28
snap-ljrwren: Were you expecting something like CItizen Kane?03:06
jrwren omfg, USS GWB, this is so bad, i cannot look away03:13
jrwren[A03:18
jrwreni admit, I like something about it. the 1 womans costume is pretty awesome.03:18
derekvI got my original kinesis back03:31
derekvthey didn't fix the escape key03:31
derekvbut its pretty sweet to be typing on the original again03:32
derekvthing is pretty sensitive03:32
derekvi'm trying to remap esc and capslock03:32
derekvsince that makes more sense anyways03:32
jrwrenholy shit, ok, terrible movie, when the laibach kicks in it is omg awesome.03:33
derekvI don't know what laibach is so I'm gonig to assume its some sort of narcotic so the sentance makes sense.03:34
jrwrenyour statement is sad on so many levels :(03:37
greg-gderekv: beer03:40
greg-gits one before maibach03:40
jrwrenreally? no laibach?03:41
jrwrenI'm sure snap-l knows 'em.03:41
jrwrenrather iconic german industrial band.03:41
snap-lI know 'em03:41
snap-lAustrian03:42
jrwren*gasp*03:42
greg-g:)03:42
jrwrenshows what I know.03:42
snap-lEr, we're both wrong03:42
snap-lSlovenian03:42
greg-gLaibach [ˈlaɪbax] is a Slovenian avant-garde music group associated with industrial, martial, and neo-classical musical styles. Laibach was formed on June 1, 1980 in Trbovlje, Slovenia, at the time SFR Yugoslavia.03:42
greg-g:)03:42
jrwrenO_O03:43
jrwrenwow.03:43
snap-ljrwren: It's a common mistake though03:43
jrwreni'll bet.03:43
greg-gI thought my maibach joke was good03:44
greg-g:/03:44
Blazeixchirp chirp03:44
snap-lgreg-g: It's a common mistake, though. ;)03:44
jrwrenI don't think I've ever thought a movie sucked so bad and then enjoyed the last 5 minutes so much.03:44
snap-ljrwren: Yeah, it's not quality, that's for sure03:45
snap-lIt's a spoof movie03:45
snap-lthe problem is finding how much is satire03:45
jrwrenis it?03:45
snap-ljrwren: Well it isn't a fucking documentary03:46
jrwrenseemed like a lot of political commentary to me.03:46
jrwrenwhich was good.03:46
snap-lYou can have a spoof and still have a message03:46
jrwrenbut the end really got me. I went from calling it garbage to worth watching, just for last 5 min.03:46
greg-ghuh03:47
greg-goh right! it was a wreck a movie!03:48
jrwrenwreck a movie?03:48
snap-ljrwren: I find things that I initially didn't like tend to be the stuff that I really like a lot later on03:48
snap-lstuff that keeps me thinking about it and coming back03:48
snap-llike Rush's Clockwork Angels03:49
jrwrenlol03:49
snap-lOr the D6 game system03:49
jrwrentrue enough.03:49
snap-lFirst impressions can be hard to overcome03:49
greg-gjrwren: same people who did https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wreck:_In_the_Pirkinning03:49
jrwrenlol, really?? same pepople? awesome/03:49
snap-lStar Wreck was pretty funky.03:49
snap-lI did not realize Iron Sky was by the same folks that did Star Wreck03:51
snap-lthat explains a lot03:51
* greg-g hasn't seen, actually, which is wrong, he knows03:54
brouschLinus using KDE https://plus.google.com/102150693225130002912/posts/DbmEE8kXLDA11:48
rick_h_morning11:49
rick_h_yea, because linux definitely represents the 'normal' user :P11:49
brouschYou, me, him. We are normal users of Linux11:51
brouschGeez. He gets a lot of retards commenting on his posts11:54
snap-lGood morning11:57
snap-lbrousch: Note that Jesus only had 12 disciples. That's because the rest left idiotic comments on his Youtube videos11:58
snap-l"Sermon on the Mount? More like one-sided discussion on the hilltop, but whatevs."12:00
snap-l"I liked him better when he was performing two fish, one loaf"12:01
snap-lMy favorites are the ones where people try to have a different conversation with him12:28
snap-l"Hey Linus, I wanted to know your opinion on..." <- not actual quote, but similar12:29
snap-l"Hey Jesus, we're planning on having a few councils to determine the make-up of the Holy Trinity, and could use a few pointers on how this works. It'll save us some time later on"12:30
snap-l"What we thought was taken care of in the Council of Nicea actually turned into the clusterbleep of the Athanasian Creed, and we only bring that out during Trinity Sunday"12:32
snap-lIt's like the superbowl of Christian Belief statements.12:32
snap-lhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athanasian_Creed <- for those who don't know what the heck I'm talking about.12:33
nullspacesnap-l: got some religious angst?12:34
snap-lnullspace: No, just pushing the joke beyond it's boundaries.12:36
nullspaceah, well everyone has to have a hobby12:37
snap-lI was brought up in religious schools through college. :)12:38
snap-lLutheran > Catholic > Reformed Church of America12:38
brouschAnd you fled across the state to escape?12:39
snap-lUm, I was raised on this side of the state12:40
snap-lwent to Hope for 4 years.12:40
brouschah12:40
snap-lOf course College is where my musical tastes matured. :)12:41
nullspacegot tired of organ music huh12:43
snap-lWow, the network is slow at work12:43
snap-lnullspace: I <3 Organ Music12:43
snap-lJoDee doesn't like it though12:43
snap-land it's a lot like bluegrass. A little goes a long way12:43
snap-lfirst song: Why don't I listen to more of this12:43
nullspacebut wow lutheran and then catholic, slap in the face to Martin Luther12:43
snap-lsecond song: Hmm, this is good12:44
snap-lThird song: I'm done12:44
snap-lnullspace: It makes me conversant in both12:44
nullspaceif we're talking bach a organ song is pretty long12:44
snap-land  I was one of a few (if any) Lutherans at school12:45
snap-lwhich meant I was the guy with baloney sandwiches on Fridays during Lent12:45
snap-lNot conciously trying to be a prick, but just not raised in the tradition12:46
nullspaceeh following lent to T is kidna our of favor12:46
nullspaceout of favor12:46
snap-lnullspace: (shrug).12:47
rick_h_heh, all depends. My wife still does that every year12:47
rick_h_though she only gets to church itself once a month these days12:48
nullspaceI stopped carring, going once the first preist I knew died and another took over12:49
snap-lnullspace: It's interesting how much you attach to the pastor / priest.12:50
nullspaceit went from love, peace and we are all the same to gay bashing, evolution denying, poltical retortic12:50
snap-lThat's the other reason.12:50
rick_h_heh, when we moved here my wife shopped around for months to find the right place12:50
rick_h_and even then they have 3 different services so she only goes to the one that works for her12:50
rick_h_religion is very much a buyers market these days :P12:50
snap-lNot that my church did that, but during the GWB years, the fundamentalists started taking over more and more12:51
snap-lrick_h_: snicker.12:51
snap-lWEll, this is entertaining. Work is having trouble with the network.12:56
brouschWe had trouble last week12:56
brouschYour turn now12:56
snap-lThanks for sharing. :)12:57
nullspaceis it wrong to think of your IT staff as an auto immune diesase of the network?12:58
snap-lI don't see our IT staff that way. They tend to be pretty good.12:59
snap-lThey do ask people to send their network passwords via e-mail on group mailing lists though, so that can be entertaining12:59
nullspaceI was suggesting that this is my thought and feeling of my IT staff.12:59
snap-lYou're allowed. :)13:00
brouschHeh, Django and others http://goo.gl/Tjdde13:09
rick_h_brousch: yea...because that means anything at all: http://goo.gl/lvBrR13:12

snap-lpancakes are more popular than my ass13:13
rick_h_color me surprised13:13
snap-lThat's because my ass doesn't go well with syrup13:14
brouschthat's not what I heard!13:14
snap-lbrousch: Oh that's just bloody wonderful. Why not post it on Google or something13:16
snap-lNo more midnight rendesvous for you.13:16
brouscheh?13:16
brouschI said I heard, not experienced13:16

brouschOoooh, a PIL fork http://blog.aclark.net//2012/11/02/pillow-1-7-8/14:09
snap-lInteresting14:09
rick_h_brousch: yea, that's been around for a while now14:14
rick_h_since last pycon I think at least, a lot of people have moved over to it14:14
brouschI hadn't heard of it14:27
rick_h_doh, even older than that: 1.0 (07/30/2010)14:29
rick_h_but yea, guess upstream PIL was a pita to work with so pillow forked to try to make things better14:30
brouschI thought PIL was abandonware14:33

jrwrenbrousch: that article starts 10yrs too late.17:13
jrwrenyou gotta go back 10 more years.17:13
brouschThey go to 1890 something17:13
jrwrenoh.17:13
rick_h_https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_M is what you need to know17:13
jrwrennm.17:13
jrwrenrick_h_: FUCK NO17:13
jrwrenmodel-m is shit.17:13
jrwrenexcellent for mech, terrible for layout.17:13

rick_h_https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling_spring17:14
jrwrengive me ADM3A layout and nice tactile feedback.17:14
jrwrenyes, buckling spring is awesome.17:14
jrwreni see.17:14
rick_h_no windows key for my WM shortcuts in your svg17:14
jrwrenit was 1969!!!17:15
jrwrenimportant is the placement of the esc and ctrl17:15
rick_h_yea, that's the truth17:15
rick_h_but location is meh, just move the keys around17:15
rick_h_be it hardware reprogramming (kenisis) or in software17:15
rick_h_hmm, no tab...I guess I could just space/space/space/space17:16
brouschhehe "As with any bygone technology, though, there are still enthusiasts who swear by the old IBM buckling springs."17:17
* rick_h_ gets a soapbox to start the swearing by17:18
rick_h_bah, just heard leo and jonathan schwartz refer to 'jsquery' instead of jquery...17:21
* rick_h_ 's head explodes17:21
jrwrenctrl-i is tab :)17:21
jrwrenwtf is jsquery? :)17:21
rick_h_"it's rails and javascript, jsquery and backbone..."17:22
jrwrenlol.17:29
jrwreni do hear good things about backbone17:29
rick_h_ugh17:30
brouschI hear good things about YUI. All of them come from rick_h_17:32
rick_h_:P17:32
rick_h_backbone is ok, but it's a partial solution17:32
rick_h_so you end up needing a lot more parts to get things together17:32
jrwrenpartial for what?17:33
jrwrenjust binding data to dom elements, right?17:33
rick_h_yea, but then you still need things for class building, dependency tracking, other modules, history handling, storage, etc17:33
jrwrenwtf is class building?17:33
rick_h_well how are you going to standardize your JS classes, usage, etc17:34
jrwreneverything else, sure.17:34
rick_h_do you use new, do you not use new17:34
jrwrenJS has classes?17:34
jrwrenjs has new?17:34
rick_h_of course, it's a fully OOP language, and yes, it has 'optional' new SomeObject()17:34
rick_h_all depends on how you construct your classes/functions to work17:34
rick_h_some is more memory heavy, others are lighter but more verbose/compliacted17:34
rick_h_wheeee JS and the 20 ways to build a class17:35
jrwreni see.17:35
jrwreni don't sweat that shit.17:35
rick_h_it adds up when you use backbone and generate 50-100 instances of a model class, plus views for each, plus parent views, plus event constrcution/binding17:36
rick_h_have to care if you build anything more significant than a todo list :P17:36
jrwreni've never written software that complex :p17:36
jrwreni don't know why I have to care though.17:37
rick_h_because of the momory/browser performance hit on various ways of doing things17:37
jrwrennow THAT is a good reason17:38
brouschHm, is modern-package-template broken?18:47
