celestehDoing the virus scan first, in the hopes that it would catch a naughty plugin. Facebook is keeping it's own tabs on me, making me swear to have done a virus scan before it will let me back on, so I'm not sure a clean profile would help ( as I would certainly want to return to my normal profile)00:04
celestehIf one of my plugins has turned evil, I thin they would actually throw me off at some point. I don't like facebook, but I don't want to get banned either00:04
daftykinsthere are never many though, so you should be able to tell at a glance (Firefox plugins)00:05
celestehYeah, I installed a few tab managers that I don't want to disable, as I fear I would loose my many many unloaded but open tabs00:05
daftykinshehe, bookmark them00:06
celestehdisabled greasemonkey...00:06
celestehI know I should. it's just gotten so out of control. I found a tab a few days ago that had been open for two years...00:06
daftykinsoh my word - i think you might have to call Guinness about that00:08

TwistedLucidityfoobarry: I remember having to do CSS. You get it looking correct in browser A, then browser B vomits a mess everywhere.10:42
TwistedLuciditySo you then have to spend an hour explaining to boss that browsers A, C, D, E thru to Z all agree to within a pixel but that B is IE and should be burnt at the stake.10:43
TwistedLuciditySame deal with spreadsheets.10:43
* TwistedLucidity fetches pitchfork to deal with Excel10:43

asahadeoHi, is there anyone here?19:28
Myrttiyeah19:30
asahadeoGreat.19:30
asahadeoI am relatively new to Ubuntu - I installed Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS (now Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS) on an old Dell Latitude laptop back in November.19:31
Myrttiyou've already upgraded it to 16.04?19:31
Myrttiwhy?19:31
asahadeoHaven't had much time to fully explore Ubuntu due to work, but looking to learn.19:31
asahadeoI don't have 16.04, 14.04.19:32
asahadeoIt's a Dell Latitude D610 laptop.19:32
Myrttioh, I read wrong, continue19:32
asahadeoI am not sure it would be able to handle 16.04 in any case :P19:32
asahadeo16.04 is the one that offers touchscreen capabilities...?19:32
asahadeoAnyway, I am looking to contribute to the Ubuntu community, just unsure as to what sort of capacity...19:34
asahadeoI am working as an apprentice web developer at the moment, learning some C++ and Javascript at home.19:34
zmoylan-piuse, enjoy and help some person you know give it a try.  success \o/19:35
asahadeoThanks :)19:35
asahadeoTrying to consider which team to go for first.19:37
asahadeoMaybe I could join the bug testing team, learn some of the basics from there.19:38
popey19:32 < asahadeo> 16.04 is the one that offers touchscreen capabilities...?19:38
popeyno19:38
popey16.04 is the one that is very similar to 14.0419:38
popeybug squad is a great place to start19:39
popeyalso askubuntu :)19:39
asahadeo<popey> 16.04 is the one that is very similar to 14.0419:43
asahadeoI am pretty sure 16.04 was said to provide support for touchscreen devices, though...?19:44
asahadeoAt least, that's what a lot of people were hoping for.19:44
