[02:03] good morning to all [07:19] good morning [07:40] Hello! [07:40] >:) [07:41] guys?! What about accepting apps certificates with ECC :) [07:41] I was going to suggest the same to Microsoft [07:41] :) [08:11] Hello marcoagpinto [08:11] EoflaOE! [08:11] my dear beloved brother! [08:11] >:) [08:12] marcoagpinto: How are you doing? [08:12] I am doing fine, thanks, and you? [08:12] :) [08:12] I am doing fine too [08:14] marcoagpinto: How was your project? [08:15] EoflaOE: the PhD project? [08:15] :) [08:16] or which other? [08:17] last week I implemented some new stuff into the PhD project, but it is risky to make changes without major testing [08:17] the software is slow as hell as it has tons of calculations and if I screw up it is bad [08:18] imagine I am at the exam using this new version and that it crashes ) [08:18] :) [08:19] marcoagpinto: OK. Test well. I am thinking about the new version of KS. [08:20] cool [08:20] Thnaks [08:20] Thanks* [08:21] EoflaOE: I can't test it well, because it is slow as hell and takes all RAM in this old laptop :) . The Professor was the one testing it because he invented the Information Metric and was testing his theory with the software [08:22] my main simulation for the PhD takes 20-30 minutes to finish in this machine [08:22] :) [08:22] I can't wait 30 minutes to test every change I make [08:22] it is too long [08:23] marcoagpinto: OK. In my project, running it with debug mode on takes 20-40MB of RAM. Recently I have made a networked debugger, and would like to have chat in it. [08:24] :) [08:24] I too have a debugger in my software [08:24] :) [08:24] it is useful [08:24] Networked? Or locally to a file? [08:25] in a window [08:25] it shows information in a window [08:25] :) [08:25] Nice. [08:27] I have a toolbar with tons of buttons (16x16 pixels), if I win the EuroMillions tonight I will pay to the guy who made the graphics to develop SVG images with a minimun 24x24 [08:27] He designed all the buttons for free, so I can't ask him to do more for free [08:28] Nice. [08:28] but 24x24 won't fit in my screen :) . I will need a 1920x1080p display [08:29] And your current screen resolution is? [08:29] 1366x768 [08:29] :) [08:29] a laptop [08:29] even with 1366 an option is partly cut as it doesn't fit [08:30] OK. I have 1400x900 in my old PC and 1600x900 in my new PC. [08:30] 1440* [08:30] I have also a few windows that don't fit 100% with 768 :) [08:31] I need 1920x1080 for everything to fit [08:32] if I changed all gadgets to GTK3 size, nothing would fit on the screen :) [08:34] Ok. [08:40] marcoagpinto: My project, KS, has to be run through the console because it has no GUI. It's a kernel simulator and should be in a console. [08:40] ahhh [08:40] :) [08:41] back in the 1990s I too created a tool that worked in a console [08:41] :) [08:41] but now it has a GUI [08:42] Nice. [08:49] marcoagpinto: For now, goodbye. I will return after sometime. [08:50] oki [08:50] take care [10:36] Hello everyone [11:29] Hi folks [11:38] BluesKaj! Hello! [11:38] >:) <- demon drinking his cola [11:39] hi marcoagpinto [11:41] 👋 [12:35] guys?! [12:36] I have just tried my Proofing Tool GUI app with PureBasic 5.71 on Ubuntu 18.04, and I still get a black emoji and no "&" using "&&" in a pop-up menu [12:36] :) [12:36] can someone with programming knowledge try this to see if it is a PureBasic issue or Ubuntu's? [12:39] (I tried both with GTK3 and GTK2) [13:08] Hello marcoagpinto [13:08] Hello [13:08] :) [13:09] How are you doing? [13:09] I am okay I guess [13:09] :) [13:09] and you? [13:09] :p [13:09] I am doing fine. I made a new post in my blog [13:09] ahhhh [13:09] what is the URL? [13:10] marcoagpinto: I will get it [13:11] marcoagpinto: https://eofla.wordpress.com/2019/09/03/good-news-and-bad-news/ [13:11] ahhh [13:11] let me check it [13:15] ahhhh :)))) [13:15] I too receive scam e-mails [13:15] :p [13:16] marcoagpinto: That should stop. Correct? [13:16] a year or two ago I had an e-mail from LinkedIn that looked real... but its linked pointed to a .ru URL [13:16] :) [13:16] yes [13:16] damn criminals [13:17] weeks ago I had some foreigners customers at the supermarket... when I got home I had a friend request on Facebook from them, so I accepted, and they tried to sell me something [13:17] Some may even use unicode characters in hostnames, if possible. [13:17] a scam [13:18] and why is it that the referring sites that access Proofing Tool GUI's page are usually from Russia or porno sites? [13:18] it is very strange [13:18] I see the statistics now and then [13:21] Yes. I don't like scam sites too. [13:22] marcoagpinto: I once saw a technique used by some scammers that involves unicode characters that looks like regular characters. I don't recall the name [13:22] ohhhhhhh [13:23] around 1999 there was an e-mail in my internship that had a virus... the link was something like dysneyland.com [13:23] :) [13:23] I can't remember [13:24] so, it was an executable attachment claiming to pass as a site URL [13:24] it was possible in the 1990 [13:24] it was possible in the 1990s [13:24] And was it malicious? And does it contain viruses? [13:24] of course it was a virus [13:25] back then the mail software wasn't as good as today [13:25] :) [13:25] OK. I did not get a virus mail, but got one scam mail. [13:25] one? [13:25] I would get 50+ scams per day in the old e-mail? [13:25] :) [13:25] because my address was all over the Internet [13:26] in the sapo.pt one I recieve spam too but the server filters most of it [13:26] I have one in my primary hotmail, but got no scam mails in the other. My gmail sometimes gets spam mails, one claiming to be Arabian but are really cybercriminals. [13:30] Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... I want to win the EuroMillions tonight and retire!!!! :((((((( [13:30] I am tired of the silly life on earth [13:30] I wanted to dedicate all my time to open-source [13:32] marcoagpinto: OK. [22:47] {05:23:59 pm:} <lakitu> here's a question maybe more explored by women, at least (stereo)typically: on my android tablet, i have several photo editors which do pretty well for touch ups... a lot is automated & its easy & works surprisingly well. does linux have anything like this - the 'new gen' of especially-personal-shot photo editors? {05:38:46 pm:} i'm kind of discussing this in another room, & i'll say it here: [22:47] there's new gen of photo editors, e.g on android, that let you touch up your face, rather than just do a fish lens or red hue [22:47] {05:39:18 pm:} i'd love to find one for linux, or if there isn't, then free idea to make some/one {05:42:00 pm:} <lakitu> linux face touch-up apps would help bring the female element to linux too, one might think [22:49] {05:42:47 pm:} <lakitu> as well as younger generations, who like to play with, trade their photos {05:42:51 pm:} quite a bit {05:43:21 pm:} etc [22:50] last paste: {05:34:25 pm:} <lakitu> like this one, FaceTune, has a 'detail' brush that simply just brings out detail in e.g your eyes. you just rub over your eyes & it makes them a lot more detailed / better looking. there are other things too {05:34:42 pm:} <lakitu> i'm sure there's plenty of other programs too [22:52] heh, my first thought was gimp plugins, but I wonder how easy it is to find those .. https://www.gimp.org/registry/ doesn't look real happy [22:53] this page suggests that there might a package gimp-plugin-registry that can be used to install plugins: https://beebom.com/best-gimp-plugins/ [22:53] no - from my experience with gimp - it's not that it 'couldn't - but at least that it does not have things like e.g FaceTune [22:53] 'couldn't'* [22:53] but maybe 5% of the plugins listed on that page look *vaguely* like what you mentioned [22:54] right - kind of sketched my experience/impression with GIMP [22:54] and I'm going to guess nothing as polished as the android ones you mentioned [22:54] the thing is i love Linux, & want to see it succeed [22:54] i think this would be good for many, including the two demographics i mentioned [22:54] they're effortless sarnold. they really are [22:54] just drag a brush & it looks a lot better [22:55] e.g the detail brush in FaceTune [22:55] (again, just bringing out details) [22:56] gimp plugins may be the best way to go [22:56] i can't say i've exhausted the World Wide Web for especially-face-tailored photo editing plugins, but i have not found anything beyond 'red eye reductino' - which is ancient - in GIMP [22:58] red-eye reduction.* [22:59] !info nvidia-driver-430 bionic [22:59] Package nvidia-driver-430 does not exist in bionic [22:59] what blows my mind is that some of those things can do video filtering; I'm not sure if they're *realtime* or not, but I had the impresson they were. they're crazy. [22:59] cool [22:59] the GIMP plugins you mean? [22:59] i was gonna say, i remember some '90s Windows freeware having red-eye reduction, even [23:00] Bot is telling an untruth - " sysop@x1804mini:~$ apt list nvidia-driver-430 >> [23:01] nvidia-driver-430/bionic-updates 430.26-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 amd64" [23:01] this is not a blanket cricitism of Linux of photo editing software, but there genuinely is a new generation of photo editors e.g in iOS & Android [23:01] lakitu: it might have been tiktok's integrated filtering thing.. [23:01] i see [23:04] (photo-editing software*) [23:12] well anyway [23:12] i'll peruse those GIMP plugins - maybe there's something [23:14] or just use my tablet for now
