penguin42ooh14:35
penguin42popey: Do you have access to a Panda board?15:25
popeypenguin42: no15:33
penguin42popey: Oh well, was just thinking they're hardware wise pretty much identical to that tablet15:33
popeyyeah, it is15:38
popeyi spy ali1234 handywork http://www.iloveubuntu.net/ubuntu-touch-ported-samsung-galaxy-s-gt-i9000-builds-available-download15:54
penguin42I assume it's mostly a matter of wrangling the kernel/boot process and binary blobs and taking the same user space?15:55
popeythere's a porting guide..15:56
popeyhttp://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting15:57
popeyali1234: did detail a bit about what he did in his G+ post and gave more detail elsewhere15:57
penguin42oh I see, it's built the other way than what I expected, but yeh fair enough16:02
penguin42does anyone know on Firefox for Android whether it's possible to disable cookies on a per-site basis?16:03
* penguin42 wants to disable Cookies for EETimes that's started to require sign in when you get past the 2nd page of viewing; but stopping cookies/javascript fixes that - but I need cookies for other stuff16:04
dwatkinspenguin42: how about using a dedicated browser such as Prism for this?16:18
penguin42dwatkins: What's prism?16:18
dwatkinsI'm not sure, but I suspect you can change the cookie behaviour just for the one site in it.16:18
penguin42dwatkins: I know I can do it on desktop firefox16:19
dwatkinsIt allows you to have a separate instance of a browser just for a particular URL and load it like an application, e.g. pointed at gmail.16:19
dwatkinshttps://wiki.mozilla.org/Prism penguin4216:19
penguin42thanks16:19
penguin42I'd prefer it to look like a normal browser because I want Google Reader to pick it up16:20
dwatkinshope it helps16:20
penguin42thanks16:20
penguin42interesting16:20
dwatkinsYou can enable the address bar, not sure about google reader integration.16:20

AzelphurIs there any browser app for Ubuntu that produces a frameless browser with no buttons?18:30
penguin42can you do that with xulrunner?18:30
Azelphurdunno what that is18:31
mgdmdoes hitting F11 in Chrome or whatever count?18:31
penguin42oh, no xulrunner packages any more18:31
mgdmIIRC, Firefox has a switch to make it do XULRunner stuff18:32
Azelphur*shrug* will just do it with python and qt4, tis a quick thing18:32
Azelphurspoke to an OUYA dev today at geek 201318:51
Azelphurapparently it's all exactly the same code, and when they say that some games won't work on android tablets, they mean that they may not have touch screen support.18:52
Azelphurso in theory everything should work if you hook up a sixaxis.18:52
ali1234wow i got my first spam comment on g+19:39
ali1234and g+ removed it before i even saw it19:39
ali1234Azelphur: all exactly the same code as what?19:40
Azelphurali1234: android19:40
Azelphuras in like, android tablets/phones19:41
ali1234oh19:41
ali1234well that's to be expected really19:41
ali1234the only things that could be incompatible are touchscreen19:42
ali1234if ouya has same CPU19:42
ali1234which it does19:43

popey both were on my amz wishlist21:32
MyrttiLaney: it's less acidic, so it doesn't effectively ruin the taste with vinegar21:55
Azelphurso, today I played on an OUYA22:04
Azelphurit was cool.22:04
Azelphurone of the dev ones with the transparent casing22:04
popeywhat games?22:12
Azelphurfist of awesome22:13
Azelphurhttp://www.kickstarter.com/projects/551886203/fist-of-awesome22:13
AzelphurI met the guy in the video22:13
Azelphurat his stand at geek 2013, https://www.dropbox.com/s/gsf9wonowkwj3gh/2013-02-24%2010.28.18.jpg :P22:16
popey☹ no linux version22:17
Azelphurindeed :(22:17
popeydid you mention this to him? :22:17
AzelphurI didn't realise there was no Linux version, I actually thought it was OUYA/android only until I read the kickstarter page22:18
popeyah22:19
Azelphurhe did however say one interesting thing, apparently all OUYA games will run on other devices, despite what the FAQ says22:19
Azelphurthe only reason why not is because of the lack of a physical controller22:19
Azelphurhe said that a sixaxis should work no problem22:19
popeydid he mention what toolkit/engine he's using?22:20
Azelphurno, I know it's written in C++ though22:20
popeyoh, it says22:21
popeyhttp://www.cocos2d-x.org/22:21
popeythat22:21
Azelphurcool22:21
Azelphurthis makes me tempted to do some ouya work in the future perhaps though22:22
popeyhttps://twitter.com/nicollhunt/status/30573788540189081622:22
Azelphursince it's very android compatible, and I like python, this could be a good combination22:22
Azelphurah cool :)22:22
Azelphurbut yea, I definitely expect the geek cons to put margate on the map in future :P22:27
Azelphurtis pretty cool22:27
popeyyeah22:27
Azelphurpopey: did you see that photo I took of the main gaming area?22:27
Azelphurhttps://www.dropbox.com/sh/aweozfzwfr2qwqo/5PWdlBFFrO#f:2013-02-23%2011.28.41.jpg22:28
Azelphurthat's rows upon rows of everything from arcade machines and binatones to xboxes running halo22:28
Azelphurmy friend was a steward for the event so he snuck me up onto the balcony to take that photo :P22:29
diploDidn't know you could do the browse thing with dropbox, like that22:29
Azelphurdiplo: yea, just put the photos in a folder in the Photos directory22:29
