| raevol | if only i had known about this AGES ago | 23:27 |
| raevol | this is how you fix firefox sending your one-word searches to your DNS | 23:27 |
| akk | I've always set keyword.url, though I thought it only kicked in when you type two or more words. | 23:30 |
| akk | But when somewhere where the cable company intercepts DNS one-word queries, I also edit /etc/resolv.conf, make sure the cable company is out and replace it with 8.8.8.8 or whatever. | 23:31 |
| raevol | by default when i type two or more i get a google search, but when i only type one, it tries to take me to http://whatityped/ | 23:31 |
| raevol | i see | 23:31 |
| akk | Hmm, yep, I go to google for a one-word keyword now too. I guess Mozilla changed that at some point. | 23:32 |
| akk | I guess I can try to unlearn the habit of typing [space]keyword when I only have one word to search for. | 23:32 |
| akk | I also need to go in and edit my jar files so I can middleclick-paste things that aren't a fully qualified url. | 23:34 |
| raevol | hehe | 23:36 |
| akk | They used to let you middleclick things like example.com/coolarticle.html but they disabled that a few years ago | 23:43 |
| akk | (too many people whining that they were middleclicking by accident, so do they make it configurable? nooo!) | 23:43 |
| raevol | hehe | 23:44 |
| raevol | i have an issue with my firefox at home taking like 30 seconds to load the first launch after a reboot | 23:44 |
| raevol | need to see if clearing my cache will fix it | 23:44 |
| akk | Firefox has always been super slow to start up for me. | 23:45 |
| raevol | 75 more minutes of work -_- | 23:45 |
| raevol | i fixed it once by "resetting" firefox | 23:45 |
| raevol | but that didn't work this time around | 23:45 |
| raevol | there's some command you can give it to clear out everything but your bookmarks basically | 23:45 |
| raevol | i'm learning unity keyboard shortcuts | 23:46 |
| raevol | so awesome | 23:46 |
| raevol | super+1-9 is amazing | 23:46 |
| akk | What does it do? | 23:46 |
| akk | Is super the windows key? | 23:47 |
| raevol | it's like pressing the icon in the launcher | 23:47 |
| raevol | yea | 23:47 |
| raevol | if you hold down super, it'll show you numbers on the launcher icons | 23:47 |
| raevol | then press the number to "click" that icon | 23:47 |
| akk | What I want is a way to use the HUD without having to run unity. | 23:47 |
| raevol | hud as in the Alt thing? | 23:47 |
| akk | I forget what key it is, but the thing that gives you keyboard access to menus in apps. | 23:48 |
| raevol | ah yea | 23:48 |
| raevol | i never use that :/ | 23:48 |
| raevol | i always hated workspaces | 23:49 |
| akk | Wow, really? | 23:49 |
| raevol | but i've started using them on my work computer because i usually have a ton of stuff open on it | 23:49 |
| raevol | and i'm finding them really useful... | 23:49 |
| akk | I'd hate to compute without them. | 23:49 |
| raevol | well at home i usually don't have more than 2 windows open | 23:49 |
| akk | I don't have a lot, only 3 most of the time, but it's 1000% better than just one. | 23:49 |
| raevol | browser and something else, whatever it is | 23:49 |
| akk | I have my email/IRC space, my hacking space, and my browser space | 23:50 |
| akk | and if I'm running gimp, sometimes I'll make a fourth workspace for that if I'm working actively in the other three. | 23:50 |
| raevol | at work i have my browser, my virtualbox, my chat, and a fourth for random things, usually ssh | 23:50 |
