Padroni | Morning | 07:25 |
ThatGraemeGuy | mornings | 07:37 |
mopkop | Good Morning all! | 07:44 |
Padroni | how are you all this morning? | 08:04 |
Padroni | Had the hottest day in 100 years in CT yesterday :/ | 08:04 |
mopkop | Good morning Padroni! Here the weather is very nice! What was the temp? | 08:06 |
Padroni | 42 here by me | 08:07 |
Padroni | 45 in Paarl, aparently | 08:07 |
Padroni | i almost died in my office from heat stroke | 08:07 |
mopkop | How do you regulate your temperature in such heat? | 08:08 |
mopkop | I hope it doesn't blow this way. | 08:08 |
Padroni | gale-force winds the previous day | 08:08 |
Padroni | no wind yesterday | 08:08 |
Padroni | in my office? | 08:08 |
Padroni | I have a fan | 08:08 |
Padroni | fighting a losing battle at that, but still | 08:08 |
Padroni | I have a aircon but it is noisy | 08:09 |
Padroni | so I do not use it | 08:09 |
mopkop | I can imagine the fan doesn't do much in this heat... | 08:09 |
Padroni | it rearranges the dust | 08:13 |
Padroni | but that is all | 08:13 |
Padroni | that is the other thing | 08:13 |
Padroni | this wind blows in SO MUCH DUST it is unbelievable | 08:14 |
Padroni | I am getting tired of wiping down my computers and monitors | 08:14 |
inetpro | good mornings | 08:43 |
mopkop | Good morning inetpro! | 08:46 |
mopkop | So I fixed that irritating menu overlay on the website. | 08:47 |
mopkop | I proposed a merge, but after that I made a small adjustment. Should I propose the merge again? | 08:47 |
inetpro | superfly: ^^ ? | 08:50 |
* inetpro not sure | 08:50 | |
superfly | yes, there's a "resubmit" link on the right | 08:57 |
inetpro | ah, thanks superfly | 08:58 |
inetpro | mopkop: see that ^^ ? | 08:58 |
mopkop | I see! Done. Ready for review :) | 08:59 |
Padroni | make the links to social media target="_blank" | 09:02 |
Padroni | else it loads in the current window and takes you away from the site | 09:02 |
Padroni | Example: change this: <a href="https://twitter.com/ubuntuza"><span class="fa fa-twitter fa-fw"></span> Twitter</a> | 09:03 |
Padroni | to this | 09:03 |
Padroni | <a href="https://twitter.com/ubuntuza" target="_blank"><span class="fa fa-twitter fa-fw"></span> Twitter</a> | 09:03 |
* inetpro just uses middleclick for opening links in tabs | 09:04 | |
* Padroni shakes head | 09:05 | |
Padroni | Nevermind then. | 09:05 |
inetpro | Padroni: fix it :-) | 09:05 |
mopkop | I agree with Padroni. | 09:05 |
inetpro | mopkop: please change it while you're at it | 09:06 |
mopkop | Ok. | 09:09 |
mopkop | Doing it in NIkola is a bit more difficult than simply editing the html. Or at least until I figure out how :? | 09:10 |
Padroni | This is why I refuse to use Nikola. | 09:11 |
Padroni | Or get involved with this site. I can edit code quicker in notepad. | 09:11 |
mopkop | Yes, but you'll have to edit it for every page. | 09:12 |
mopkop | Good morning magellanic! | 09:14 |
magellanic | heya :) | 09:14 |
superfly | Padroni: 1995 called, they want their _blank back | 09:15 |
mopkop | lol | 09:15 |
Padroni | Like I said : nevermind. | 09:15 |
inetpro | ai! | 09:16 |
andrewlsd | 2 | 09:21 |
inetpro | 1 | 09:21 |
inetpro | wb andrewlsd | 09:22 |
andrewlsd | hehe. slip of the finger. | 09:22 |
andrewlsd | ty inetpro. | 09:22 |
andrewlsd | Hello all. | 09:22 |
mopkop | Hello andrewlsd! | 09:23 |
magellanic | at least not 40C today andrewlsd | 09:24 |
magellanic | :) | 09:24 |
andrewlsd | yip. was 46 in Durbanville yesterday. First time in ages that the air temperature was burning my skin even in the shade. | 09:24 |
andrewlsd | crazily, my pool was 20 | 09:25 |
andrewlsd | ... so half in pool: lower half aching from cold, upper half burning from heat. | 09:25 |
magellanic | yeah it was a record breaking day for Cpt I believe | 09:25 |
andrewlsd | magellanic, yes, so I hear. Although Cape Town usually has 1 or two days per year where it reaches 40. Usually Feb. | 09:26 |
andrewlsd | temp usually measured at CT airport, so CBD is usually couple of degrees warmer. | 09:26 |
andrewlsd | coz it's a topographical 'bowl' | 09:27 |
magellanic | yeah | 09:27 |
andrewlsd | it's started raining today. so that's super news for the firefighters, most of which are volunteers (http://www.vws.org.za) | 09:28 |
magellanic | glad, shame they are still battling those fires | 09:28 |
andrewlsd | ... in other news... not sure what is going to happen this weekend, since the @CycleTourSA is due to happen on Sunday and it pretty much traverses the area affected by the fires. | 09:28 |
* andrewlsd lurks | 09:34 | |
magellanic | wish them luck, I need a relaxing weekend.., may go checkout the ctpug meet | 09:37 |
inetpro | are these fires as bad as this one every year or was this one more hectic than other years? | 09:39 |
magellanic | this one was worse, terms of ground coverage, I think | 09:40 |
andrewlsd | +1 magellanic | 09:42 |
superfly | the last fire that was nearly this bad was 12 years ago | 09:52 |
ThatGraemeGuy | so for anyone who may have been considering purchasing from the orange store, please spare yourself the pain and just don't | 09:53 |
superfly | ThatGraemeGuy: eh? | 09:53 |
superfly | For the most part I've only heard good. What happened? | 09:53 |
ThatGraemeGuy | purchasing isn't so bad, but when you need to return a phone, you are in for a world of pain | 09:53 |
ThatGraemeGuy | the wife's touchscreen became unresponsive, about the top 1.5cm or so | 09:53 |
ThatGraemeGuy | seems to be a known issue with the model as far as i can tell | 09:54 |
ThatGraemeGuy | took about a month to have it "repaired" and sent back, same issue | 09:54 |
ThatGraemeGuy | after much nagging, got them to have a courier collect the phone, wasn't going to pay to send it to them again | 09:54 |
ThatGraemeGuy | they eventually agree that they will replace the phone since the repair wasn't successful | 09:55 |
ThatGraemeGuy | except when the phone arrives they decide no, they will try the repair again | 09:55 |
ThatGraemeGuy | eventually she calls me yesterday. she has the phone, what is the problem, she wants to test the phone before sending it back | 09:56 |
ThatGraemeGuy | explain the problem, she tests, reports its is working perfectly | 09:56 |
ThatGraemeGuy | you already know how this story ends... | 09:56 |
ThatGraemeGuy | thankfully they are based in jhb or it might've ended with me in prison | 09:56 |
confluency | "working perfectly" = "I couldn't be arsed to read your actual complaint, so I looked at it for five seconds and it looks fine"? | 09:57 |
ThatGraemeGuy | this has been a 2 month process of begging and nagging every. single. day. | 09:57 |
ThatGraemeGuy | yes exactly | 09:57 |
confluency | Ahhhh, I've heard this song before. | 09:57 |
ThatGraemeGuy | her latest reply is "oh then is must be a software issue, please ensure the software is up-to-date" | 09:58 |
confluency | (But with oven hotplates.) | 09:58 |
ThatGraemeGuy | i would get a screen off ebay and do it myself, but there's reports that people who've tried that have had the problem persist :-/ | 09:58 |
superfly | ThatGraemeGuy: which phone is that? | 09:59 |
ThatGraemeGuy | so caveat emptor, is all I'm saying | 09:59 |
ThatGraemeGuy | sony xperia sp | 09:59 |
superfly | ah, OK | 09:59 |
ThatGraemeGuy | https://www.google.co.za/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=sony%20xperia%20sp%20part%20of%20screen%20unresponsive | 09:59 |
ThatGraemeGuy | I emailed the complaints dept of the national consumer council who are supposed to be guardians of the CPA, but I'm not going to hold my breath | 10:01 |
ThatGraemeGuy | I suspect Sony ZA will tell me to get lost as these are actually grey imports | 10:02 |
ThatGraemeGuy | hopefully my Moto G doesn't break down | 10:02 |
superfly | You should be able to take it to SonyZA, but they will might you pay for it | 10:03 |
superfly | *might make | 10:03 |
ThatGraemeGuy | maybe I should just try them | 10:03 |
ThatGraemeGuy | nothing to lose | 10:03 |
TinuvaMac | i have nothing but good stuff to say about my sony xperia | 10:06 |
TinuvaMac | its a z1 compact though | 10:07 |
TinuvaMac | love this phone | 10:07 |
ThatGraemeGuy | no, the phone is great, it's Orange SA's service that is shockingly bad | 10:07 |
ThatGraemeGuy | it has a fault, it happens | 10:07 |
TinuvaMac | ah yes ofc | 10:08 |
highvoltage | ThatGraemeGuy: ah that's good to know, I was considering buying from ogange SA | 10:14 |
superfly | Like I said, I know a couple of people who haven't had any issues. But I don't think they've needed to return anything. | 10:16 |
ThatGraemeGuy | yeah the purchase process is not an issue | 10:17 |
Squirm | Hello | 10:24 |
superfly | hey Squirm, surviving? | 10:25 |
Squirm | superfly: Being smoked out a bit | 10:26 |
Squirm | Well, I'm ok, because I'm in an office. But the guys have closed a few warehouse doors | 10:26 |
mopkop | Hello Squirm! | 10:26 |
Squirm | superfly: are you based on Capricorn side of Muizenberg? | 10:27 |
mopkop | Apparently it is impossible to do the target="_blank" in the menu items with nikola. | 10:27 |
andrewlsd | Hi peeps, any of you folks "steam" users. I've never been a gamer :-( but am thinking of having a look at Steam. Any thoughts, gotcha's, etc would be appreciated. | 10:42 |
Squirm | andrewlsd: not really | 10:54 |
Squirm | It just likes updating a lot | 10:54 |
andrewlsd | Squirm: I see that. ;-( | 10:55 |
magellanic | andrewlsd: I haven't used it either (also not a gamer), but heard good things about it | 11:04 |
andrewlsd | just getting my first steam game now. 10GB. | 11:07 |
andrewlsd | flip, that'll take days.... | 11:07 |
magellanic | :p | 11:15 |
magellanic | which game? | 11:15 |
andrewlsd | War Thunder (72MB of 9.7GB downloaded) | 11:15 |
* andrewlsd thinks a smaller game would have been better to start with | 11:15 | |
andrewlsd | any suggestions for a quick (small) game to try? | 11:15 |
magellanic | can't you stop and resume it | 11:15 |
magellanic | we are steam partners, but I don't what that means yet :p | 11:17 |
TinuvaMac | you can pause steam games | 11:19 |
TinuvaMac | you can even schedule it to only downloads from like midnight to 6am if you want | 11:19 |
andrewlsd | ... it looked like you can schedule it to only download "updates" during certain time periods. but not schedule a new game download | 11:23 |
Kilos | power just came back on | 11:24 |
Kilos | hi andrewlsd | 11:24 |
andrewlsd | Hi Kilos, wb | 11:24 |
Kilos | ty | 11:25 |
mopkop | Hello Kilos! | 11:31 |
mopkop | Can we perhaps move the social links on the website to the footer? On Trello I put an example of how it would look like. | 11:37 |
=== Kilos is now known as Kilosyou | ||
Kilosyou | you need to talk to inetpro and superfly about that lad | 11:38 |
Padroni | hi Kilosyou | 11:39 |
Kilosyou | hi Padroni | 11:40 |
Kilosyou | mopkop exlpain here why you think it will be better and let them decide | 11:40 |
Kilosyou | maybe put your thoughts in a comment in trello too | 11:41 |
mopkop | Ok :) | 11:41 |
mopkop | It's really just because the top menu looks overpopulated. | 11:42 |
mopkop | It is this overpopulation that caused the overlay problem. | 11:42 |
mopkop | Also, I think it looks better on the bottom. | 11:42 |
mopkop | And I can add target="_blank" to it :) | 11:43 |
mopkop | Which is the reason I tried to do it in the first place. | 11:43 |
Kilosyou | what happened my nick | 11:44 |
=== Kilosyou is now known as Kilos | ||
inetpro | mopkop: what do you mean with it's overpopulated? | 11:52 |
mopkop | inetpro: Too much menu Items. | 11:53 |
mopkop | Go to the current website and resize the width to about 900px | 11:53 |
inetpro | it wraps at 900px width | 11:54 |
mopkop | Yes, try to read the top text now. | 11:54 |
inetpro | I can read it | 11:54 |
mopkop | Does'nt the forum menu go to the next line? | 11:55 |
mopkop | Try the 'Getting started' page. | 11:56 |
mopkop | It is this problem I fixed with the merge I proposed. | 11:56 |
inetpro | oh yes, I see what you mean... when going to 'Getting Started' | 11:56 |
mopkop | But it would be better if we just make the menu smaller. | 11:57 |
inetpro | change Getting Started to Get Started and Getting Involved to Get Involved | 11:58 |
superfly | Or, stop adding so many pages. | 11:58 |
superfly | I wanted like a 1 page site. | 11:58 |
superfly | I don't want to sit with the same problem I've had for like the last 8 years... a big fat website on my hands, and no one wants to help me maintain it. No thank you. | 11:59 |
Kilos | hi mage | 11:59 |
magespawn | hi Kilos | 11:59 |
Kilos | magespawn too | 11:59 |
mopkop | Hello magespawn! | 12:00 |
magespawn | i accept that as a shortening | 12:00 |
magespawn | hi mopkop | 12:00 |
Kilos | hehe | 12:00 |
inetpro | superfly: hmm... at least we already have like 4 or 5 people involved again but I agree we should perhaps cut down on content | 12:03 |
inetpro | doing the Nikola thing is fun at this point | 12:03 |
inetpro | mopkop: perhaps 'LoCo Links' should become just 'Links' as well and then add the social media items in the same list | 12:06 |
mopkop | Changing 'getting' to 'get' works, but The logo is still on a separate line. | 12:08 |
mopkop | There is another reason I wish the Social links to be at the bottom. Actually a few reasons. | 12:09 |
mopkop | For one, it whould be nice if you clicked it and it opens in a new tab. Nikola doesn't allow this with menu links. | 12:09 |
mopkop | Perhaps I can do both, But the links menu-list should not be too long. | 12:11 |
inetpro | Maaz: is http://www.ubuntu.com/ up? | 12:42 |
Maaz | inetpro: Yes, http://www.ubuntu.com/ is up | 12:42 |
inetpro | Maaz: is https://www.ubuntu.com/ up? | 12:42 |
Maaz | inetpro: No, https://www.ubuntu.com/ is down (Server is not responding) | 12:43 |
inetpro | hmm... | 12:43 |
mopkop | wierd... | 12:49 |
mopkop | https://code.launchpad.net/~prysdieheer/ubuntu-za/menu-revisions - incase anyone wanted to test the changes. I'm not going to propose a merge yet, it's just to compare | 12:49 |
mopkop | bzr branch lp:~prysdieheer/ubuntu-za/menu-revisions | 12:49 |
inetpro | mopkop: good idea... I'll check later | 12:50 |
inetpro | Kilos: check it so long on your side | 12:51 |
inetpro | and anyone else for that matter | 12:51 |
* andrewlsd returns | 13:27 | |
mopkop | Welcome back! | 13:27 |
andrewlsd | any lucky peeps here already ordered an Ubuntu Phone? | 13:27 |
magellanic | not me | 13:28 |
andrewlsd | cheerio folks | 14:12 |
inetpro | ai! | 15:32 |
inetpro | somebody ate my cheese | 15:32 |
Kilos | lol | 15:33 |
Kilos | at home or at work? | 15:33 |
Kilos | lol nlsthzn_ i see the UAE has a cricket team at the world cup | 15:52 |
Kilos | inetpro what are you breaking again | 15:54 |
Kilos | no wonder they stole your cheese | 15:54 |
Kilos | hi clr mopkop | 16:27 |
mopkop | Hello again... | 16:28 |
inetpro | Kilos: I'm here, you need something? | 16:51 |
Kilos | nope ty i just saw you all part/join | 16:52 |
inetpro | hmm... | 16:56 |
inetpro | mopkop: you completely removed social media links at the top now? | 16:56 |
mopkop | Yes. Or do you think I should but it in the links? | 16:57 |
inetpro | not sure what other think but I kinda like it at the top and bottom | 16:58 |
inetpro | others | 16:59 |
Kilos | i go eat | 16:59 |
inetpro | definitily looks better with less menu choices at the top | 17:05 |
inetpro | do we really need 'Home' when the logo takes us home? | 17:06 |
mopkop | Yea, I think we can remove it too. What do you guys think? | 17:11 |
* inetpro likes it without 'Home' and with just 'Links' and 'Social' | 17:14 | |
* inetpro will wait for others to chime in | 17:15 | |
inetpro | Forums should actually fall under Links as well if you ask me | 17:19 |
mopkop | Noted. | 17:19 |
inetpro | and then 'Ask Ubuntu' http://askubuntu.com/ as well | 17:20 |
mopkop | But it's not really part of the Loco. | 17:20 |
mopkop | Maybe we should make a 'help' menu for these 2 links. | 17:20 |
inetpro | hmm,,, | 17:20 |
mopkop | Pushed the changes. You can update the branch now. | 17:48 |
mopkop | On your computer I mean. | 17:48 |
mopkop | And check out the changes. | 17:48 |
magespawn | good evening | 17:58 |
inetpro | mopkop: nice! | 18:04 |
mopkop | Evening magespawn | 18:13 |
Kilos | hi magespawn | 18:15 |
Kilos | looks fine to me mopkop | 18:15 |
inetpro | uh, be a bit more critical man | 18:21 |
Kilos | lol | 18:22 |
Kilos | i like the twit place and fb at the bottom | 18:22 |
inetpro | we prefer your honest opinion Kilos :-) | 18:22 |
Kilos | i have liked the site from the begiining and now it looks a bit better imo. i dont enjoy all sites making that social stuff very prominent | 18:24 |
Kilos | but you have to convince the fly not me | 18:24 |
mopkop | superfly? | 18:25 |
mopkop | What do you think? | 18:25 |
superfly | people always want to know your Fakebook page, etc, so in this day and age, it is important to make them prominent. | 18:29 |
superfly | most of OpenLP's PR is done via Facebook. We post news on our site, but then push it through to Facebook, Twitter and Google+ | 18:30 |
* inetpro also feels the social media links should be quite prominent | 18:30 | |
inetpro | superfly: how do you like the Help links? | 18:31 |
Kilos | i accept your decisions, just im not a fb twitter fan like others | 18:31 |
Kilos | my own opinion | 18:32 |
superfly | As I said before, the simpler the site the better, but I don't have time to look at this right now. I have work to do on DebConf16 | 18:32 |
mopkop | Hmm, both then? | 18:33 |
inetpro | ai! | 18:33 |
inetpro | mopkop: we don't have to rush the updates anyway | 18:33 |
Kilos | patience is a virtue | 18:34 |
mopkop | Yes, no rush :) | 18:34 |
inetpro | superfly: what do you have to do now about DebConf16? | 18:36 |
superfly | inetpro: everything! | 18:36 |
superfly | well, not quite, but I've got some things I need to get done before out meeting at 9:30 | 18:37 |
inetpro | hmm... ok | 18:37 |
Kilos | dont nag my fly | 18:37 |
Kilos | Padroni you still here so late? | 18:38 |
Kilos | sjoe | 18:38 |
inetpro | superfly: meetings online on IRC or physical? | 18:38 |
superfly | IRC | 18:38 |
inetpro | Kilos: nagging, what's that? | 18:38 |
Kilos | hee hee that thing you so good at | 18:39 |
