|
07:33:19 PM | _Jot_ | TacoWan, just remember that just cause steam runs on linux, it doesn't mean most games will
|
07:34:35 PM | Dave-Maydew | they will though _Jot_ :-)

07:34:56 PM | _Jot_ | that's the plan I hope :)
|

|
07:41:13 PM | Sovereign | Wow after months of use I finally saw the mute button on BSP
|
07:41:15 PM | _Jot_ | RobbieF is artistically handicapped?
|
07:41:59 PM | Guest_hArrY | WACOM head managed tablet for @Robbief

07:42:21 PM | Dave-Maydew | This is why I liked using VB.net etc
|
07:42:23 PM | _Jot_ | thanks for being here balsamiqLeon
|
07:42:37 PM | Dave-Maydew | but then I saw the error in my ways
|
07:43:15 PM | albertr | is it HTML5?
|
07:43:37 PM | tic-toc | When I draw pictures it looks like I did it with my feet. :)
|
07:43:56 PM | Dave-Maydew | I know that feeling
|
07:45:34 PM | Dave-Maydew | oh no not Red Shhhhhhhhhh
|
07:47:15 PM | Dave-Maydew | this is what scares new users to Linux
|
07:47:20 PM | _Jot_ | and of course people can download the show later and watch it again and again to follow along more slowly and repeat stuff if they need
|
07:47:56 PM | Dave-Maydew | many I talk to think we have to compile everything
|
07:48:17 PM | Dave-Maydew | Adobe have discontinued a couple of things
|
07:48:41 PM | robgor | RobbieF isnt a opensource version of adobeair available?
|
07:49:31 PM | popey | nope
|
07:49:52 PM | _Jot_ | probably won't be since discontinued so no point really
|
07:49:52 PM | Dave-Maydew | A new mapping app called iMaps
|
07:49:57 PM | Dave-Maydew | oops
|
07:50:46 PM | Dave-Maydew | The only mapping system that gets you lost
|
07:50:59 PM | _Jot_ | you lost me Dave-Maydew
|

|
07:53:25 PM | _Jot_ | it should be a smiley face RobbieF
|
07:54:00 PM | Dave-Maydew | Hey Scorpio55
|
07:54:10 PM | Dave-Maydew | didn't see you till just
|
07:55:19 PM | _Jot_ | Lorem Ipsum of course RobbieF

07:56:08 PM | Dave-Maydew | thats WallMart
|
07:56:16 PM | tic-toc | yes it is
|
07:56:23 PM | Dave-Maydew | too many L's
|
07:56:32 PM | balsamiqLeon | typing "lorem" will automatically create lorem ipsum text, btw
|
07:57:04 PM | _Jot_ | very useful :)
|
07:57:05 PM | ajamison5579 | who here actually speaks Latin and can tell me what Lorem Ipsum means
|
07:57:32 PM | _Jot_ | I don't speak latin but I know it is an actual article something to do with the bible I think
|
07:57:32 PM | Dave-Maydew | everyone is google'ing it as we speak
|
07:58:03 PM | TheChrista | The original Lorem Ipsum used to be a Latin prayer
|
07:58:15 PM | TheChrista | I'm not sure it is anymore, I think it's been comp'd since then
|
07:58:41 PM | ajamison5579 | oh so developers are pushing their Latin religions on us when they use filler text
|
07:58:44 PM | ajamison5579 | how rude
|
07:59:23 PM | Dave-Maydew | right guys, I must go
|
07:59:40 PM | Dave-Maydew | but I shall be back next week
|
07:59:54 PM | Dave-Maydew | my dog needs to go out, and then it's bedtime
|
08:00:03 PM | TheChrista | see you Dave-Maydew! Cheers!

|
08:00:51 PM | Dave-Maydew | ;-)
|
08:01:22 PM | _Jot_ | ajamison5579 the original text used to be like that perhaps, but what you get doesn't even make sense, it's changed purely for text-filler-qualities etc
|
08:01:44 PM | chrisreich | good night all. 'till next week.
|
08:01:55 PM | albertr | thanks for the show all ;^)

08:07:18 PM | _Jot_ | TheChrista, did he say 'talk on air'? because he can be tricky
|
08:08:14 PM | TheChrista | He did say "smile on air" I assumed that meant I could talk as well. I'll read the fine print next time.
|
08:08:27 PM | TheChrista | But it was a great interview, so I'll let it slide this time!
|
08:09:16 PM | _Jot_ | next time when you want to say something, just kick him under the desk so he'll be too hurt to speak
|
08:09:24 PM | _Jot_ | then you can talk as long as you want
|
08:10:00 PM | TheChrista | haha, thanks Jot, I am glad I have approval to kick Robbie....now whenever it happens I can say "Jot made me do it"
|
08:10:14 PM | _Jot_ | uhoh
|
08:10:36 PM | _Jot_ | wow, my viewer points suddenly are minus 4 billion
|
08:10:53 PM | RobbieF | thanks gang!
|
08:10:55 PM | RobbieF | hope you had fun
|
08:11:04 PM | robgor | oh well jot wont be winning anymore prizes lol
|
08:11:21 PM | _Jot_ | that's okay, I still feel a winner :)
|
08:11:27 PM | Dennis_Kelley | Night All!
|
08:11:42 PM | _Jot_ | good night Dennis_Kelley
|
08:11:53 PM | _Jot_ | still having fun RobbieF
|
08:22:31 PM | robgor | Damn I need more space on my hd to fit games from steam :(
|
08:22:56 PM | RobbieF | Yes robgor, yes you do.
|
08:23:29 PM | robgor | RobbieF only got a 120Gig SSD
|
08:23:35 PM | _Jot_ | I took the liberty to delete all the work from your drive robgor, you won't be working when you're playing anyway, so now you have lots of space
|
08:24:44 PM | robgor | Jot the funny thing is I have a PS3 and a Wii and hardly play them, just decided to try steam when it came out
|
08:25:18 PM | robgor | and thanks for deleting my work I didnt need it anyway LOLO
|
08:25:50 PM | _Jot_ | I use steam a lot myself, haven't tried it on linux though. I can get pretty steamed about stuff sometimes too
|
08:27:33 PM | robgor | yeah I have put it on both my desktop and laptop
|
08:28:13 PM | robgor | with the laptop being a bit more of a pain with the drivers due to it being the optimus
|
08:29:11 PM | _Jot_ | yeah, laptops usually are more difficult
|
08:31:51 PM | robgor | hmm just added trine2 looks interesting
|
08:32:16 PM | _Jot_ | I have that too but haven't played it yet, due to not having finished trine1
|
08:35:55 PM | _Jot_ | don't have the expansion to it either yet, guess that'll be something for the next sale :)
|
08:36:18 PM | robgor | oh well think I will go out to the garage for a bit and work on my project car, seya all
|
08:36:26 PM | _Jot_ | have fun!
|
08:36:48 PM | robgor | will do
|
08:37:20 PM | _Jot_ | RobbieF, nice demo but I didn't like the colour, can you change that?
|
08:37:27 PM | RobbieF | :-D
|
08:47:36 PM | _Jot_ | I'm sure TheChrista could, she's good with design, so why can't you RobbieF :P
|
08:54:01 PM | TheChrista | Because Robbie isn't "the Robbie" he's just Robbie
|
08:54:29 PM | _Jot_ | ah, that's a good explanation
|
08:54:46 PM | TheChrista | and, that is the answer to all lifes questions as well
|
08:54:46 PM | RobbieF | hehe
|
08:54:57 PM | RobbieF | I'd create a color layer in GIMP and make it green!
|
08:55:26 PM | _Jot_ | green with envy?
|
08:55:57 PM | _Jot_ | I do actually have a serious thing that I consider a RobbieF-design-flaw about something he did
|
08:56:52 PM | _Jot_ | there's Bekahs book, A white rose, and it has about 4 times the title 'A white rose' on the cover and on the first pages. But, each time in a different font, and sometimes not matching the fonts around it, so I'm like 'geez, pick one or at least make it match'
|
09:02:58 PM | TheChrista | By folks! I'll see you all soon....in a galaxy far far away
|
09:03:05 PM | TheChrista | ....or right here on Cat 5. Cheers!
|
09:03:07 PM | _Jot_ | have a great week TheChrista
|
09:03:17 PM | _Jot_ | we'll be here waiting :)
|
09:04:41 PM | Garbee | RobbieF, Did you even timeline the Cat5 site?
|
09:05:03 PM | Garbee | It is horrendous with the moving menu. under 30FPS at some points.
|
09:05:07 PM | Garbee | ;)
|
09:05:14 PM | Garbee | Shoot for 60 man.
|
09:05:24 PM | _Jot_ | 60 is the new 30?
|
09:05:52 PM | Garbee | 60 is what sites should go for as far as a FPS.
|
09:06:06 PM | Garbee | It provides nice smooth animations/rendering.
|
09:06:30 PM | Garbee | You can actually tell looking at Cat5 when you scroll down it renders pretty slowly.
|
09:06:35 PM | Garbee | It even looks jaggedy at times.
|
09:07:38 PM | _Jot_ | item for the newsroom: Garbee is secretly a gamer
|
09:07:47 PM | Garbee | heh
|
09:07:50 PM | Garbee | I rarely game anymore.
|
09:09:25 PM | _Jot_ | things are really smooth to me, can't tell how much FPS it is etc, but maybe it depends on the browser too
|
09:09:50 PM | Garbee | Yea, it can depend on browser.
|
09:10:07 PM | Garbee | But still, it is going to be crap in most since it is using position:absolute;
|
09:10:12 PM | Garbee | That is CPU bound rendering.
|
09:10:47 PM | Garbee | That should be used as a fallback, instead opting for a transform effect or something else to make it GPU bound for modern browsers/systems.
|
09:11:17 PM | _Jot_ | ah, but RobbieF is an old bald nerd, can he make such a transition
|
09:11:22 PM | Garbee | I haven't seen any demos for making menus like that GPU bound though. It is on my list of things to figure out.
|
09:12:18 PM | RobbieF | haha Jot; next time I'll remember to make the first 15 pages of any book the title, repeatedly, in different typefaces.
|
09:14:50 PM | _Jot_ | :) I think actually the different fonts aren't really bad because of the purpose where they are, but on the back its very obvious because you have 3 or 4 fonts there with different spacing, because you probably wwanted more text there later and had to alter it to fit, that needs more work
|
09:15:20 PM | RobbieF | hehe
|
09:15:37 PM | RobbieF | do you remember how quickly I put that together (on the air)? :)
|
09:16:17 PM | _Jot_ | well, you might do a 2nd printing sometime, so I figured I'd comment now about it :)
|
09:16:37 PM | RobbieF | :)
|
09:16:38 PM | RobbieF | cheers
|
09:16:55 PM | RobbieF | my copies got lost in the mail, so I haven't got to see it yet (to proof it and make revisions)
|
09:16:55 PM | Garbee | So, I published the module I have been working on. Let's hope the LS team accepts it vs rejecting.
|
09:16:58 PM | RobbieF | so you have a first-run copy
|
09:17:12 PM | Garbee | Wow, Jot got his before Robbie.
|
09:17:20 PM | Garbee | That is how bad the CA postal service is now...'
|
09:17:37 PM | RobbieF | Canadian Postal service is crap
|
09:17:53 PM | _Jot_ | I did buy mine from amazon UK, so it was printed there, that makes a difference as well
|
09:18:13 PM | RobbieF | leave it to them to "lose" a package in the mail around Christmas time. I pretty much GUARANTEE you some jackass working at a post office thought it was a gift (sizeable box) and took it home for himself.
|
09:19:15 PM | _Jot_ | mine was supposed to arrive before the power-failure, but they didn't feel like delivering that day, even though it fit in the mailslot, so they wouldn't even have to wait around for me to come get it
|
09:19:30 PM | _Jot_ | otherwise I would probably have finished it already too :)
|
09:19:52 PM | RobbieF | with no power, what else would you do? :)
|
09:19:55 PM | RobbieF | how far in?
|
09:20:42 PM | _Jot_ | I've not started to read it yet, because I wanted to wait untill today, or if the power failed again
|
09:20:52 PM | RobbieF | PS - if you like it, please review it on amazon. If you don't like it, don't ;) hehe
|
09:21:57 PM | _Jot_ | even though there are good reviews already? well, I'll see :)
|
09:22:16 PM | Garbee | "Take only what you need from it"
|
09:22:26 PM | RobbieF | I can't even SAY it Garbee.
|
09:22:46 PM | RobbieF | I've yet to find a framework I "like" though
|
09:22:48 PM | Garbee | Robbie, You don't need to be able to pronounce something to fall in love with it.
|
09:22:51 PM | RobbieF | I tend to build my own
|
09:23:00 PM | Garbee | I think Laravel could be the one for you.
|
09:23:05 PM | Garbee | Because it is so modular.
|
09:23:09 PM | RobbieF | cool.
|
09:23:14 PM | RobbieF | pop me a note tomorrow @work
|
09:23:15 PM | Garbee | Sadly I think it basically relies on composer though. :/
|
09:23:17 PM | RobbieF | I'll have a look
|
09:23:25 PM | Garbee | Unless you end up doing dep management manually.
|
09:23:31 PM | Garbee | mkay, I'll do my best to remember.
|
09:23:53 PM | Garbee | No docs yet. But the super cool thing is that it is an IoC framework.
|
09:23:57 PM | Garbee | Making testing *super* easy.
|
09:24:42 PM | Garbee | Because you basically create dummy (functions iirc what they are called) which you can plug into things. Making testing far easier/faster/reliable than previous methods.
|
09:24:48 PM | _Jot_ | Garbee, I hope RobbieF won't reject that thing you made either. Oh wait, he's not in charge of that, so you'll be fine I'm sure
|
09:24:59 PM | Garbee | I actually heard one dev say it is basically impossible to properly test PHP without IoC capabilities.
