07:07:01 PMrevdjenk _Jot_: is there a way for you to contact TennFrank through his login info?
07:07:23 PM_Jot_ not for me, I can only see the same as you, you'd have to ask RobbieF

07:08:32 PMTheChrista haha, clever revdjenk!
07:08:39 PMrevdjenk thx
07:08:44 PMDJQuad how ya be Jot
07:08:51 PM_Jot_ I'm doing okay so far
07:09:01 PMagamotto Has something changed in the live feed that keeps the window from filling?
07:09:03 PMSashaD I'm doing great :)
07:09:12 PM_Jot_ Robbie's blog: http://www.baldnerd.com/
07:09:42 PM_Jot_ Hmm I always try to avoid looking at RobbieF. My glances slide straight off, seeing how smooth his head is
07:10:10 PMrevdjenk nice RobbieF just like the Pringle can trick?
07:10:16 PMDennis_Kelley RobbieF looking at your face does not tell us you are a Nerd!
07:10:39 PMABQTKY Better than the Pringle can thing!!
07:10:56 PMrevdjenk ABQTKY: jking
07:11:59 PMDJQuad the tin can on string technology no longer works?
07:12:26 PMrevdjenk _Jot_: hee hee your gaze grazes, or your glances dances?
07:12:31 PMABQTKY I wasn't rev. It really is better than Pringles cans or 'Cantennas.' (Yeah, I had one a while back.)
07:12:55 PMagamotto Pringle can lined in coilloidal silver?
07:13:20 PMWhiskey_Zero thanks for the update Robbie
07:14:29 PMrevdjenk RobbieF: TheChrista I am running LinuxMint17 and my touchpad is very touchy! I have already adjusted the sensitivity to the lowest, but the slightest touch becomes a click. Is there a cli way to decrease sensitivity?
07:14:32 PMRobbieF Cheers WZ
07:15:05 PMrevdjenk seconds Whiskey_Zero
07:15:16 PMDJQuad hey RobbieF
07:15:54 PMagamotto Or just turn the 'touch-click' off?
07:17:18 PMrevdjenk agamotto: need the click... just not so sensitive. I highlight half a web page with the slightest touch!
07:17:49 PMagamotto I find the 'touch-click' on pads to be more annoying than anything else
07:17:51 PMrevdjenk agamotto: I have a no button touchpad, it is the buttons!
07:18:36 PM_Jot_ I'd search the internet and search if others report the same thing, it might be a design-flaw
07:18:39 PMagamotto revdjenk: wow, no 'backup' buttons? eeeh
07:19:31 PMSashaD Maybe you can voice control it somehow?
07:19:45 PMrevdjenk agamotto: hee hee, the "backup" are the two bottom corners...
07:19:54 PMagamotto SashaD: Nope, sorry it isn't an Android mobile :)
07:20:12 PMDJQuad the best apps are nothing more than shortcuts to applications on the web itself
07:20:14 PMDJQuad imo
07:20:38 PMrevdjenk SashaD: of course, I love [hate] saying comma, period in voice typing already!
07:20:51 PMSashaD That was my only idea :(
07:21:04 PMagamotto GWG: You will be happy to hear that I have finally joined the Android Nation... I just switched to an Alcatel Pop Icon something touch on Tracfone. Quite happy with it so far.
07:21:41 PMrevdjenk SashaD: my wife is already suspicious when I "talk" to my devices! hee hee
07:22:05 PM_Jot_ revdjenk, maybe you should use something else instead of 'honey' to activate the device
07:22:17 PMDJQuad @revjenk just curious, are you using the latest touchpad drivers?
07:22:18 PMrevdjenk _Jot_: yes, darling!
07:23:19 PMDJQuad sorry, @revdjenk. lol
07:23:19 PMSashaD Lol
07:23:29 PMrevdjenk DJQuad: I just reinstalled Mint after a failed cinnamon 2.4.4 install, so assume I have the latest. I don't have anything proprietery on this laptop
07:23:36 PMDennis_Kelley Hello _Jot_
07:23:46 PMagamotto revdjenk: Sorry to hear that
07:24:15 PMagamotto I am having to rebuild my Mythbox, due to a dead hd... first dead hd in six years.
07:24:16 PMrevdjenk agamotto: DJQuad it was about an 8 minute task... no problem
07:24:23 PMDJQuad what kind of laptop is it?
07:24:24 PM_Jot_ hey Dennis_Kelley
07:24:40 PMrevdjenk Acer Aspire S3
07:24:53 PMDJQuad ok sec
07:25:00 PMrevdjenk looks like a mac air 13"
07:25:10 PMagamotto I thought QT was Norwegian?
07:25:39 PMrevdjenk agamotto: thought it was finnish
07:25:47 PMagamotto Canadians are.... sexy.
07:26:02 PMSashaD Eh
07:26:39 PMnapa_polarbear no
07:27:07 PMnapa_polarbear maybe easy/
07:27:16 PMMrNaturopathy RobbieF, Can you explain what Sand Boxing is?
07:28:54 PMABQTKY Yeah, yeah, and we want to know the difference between 'Sand Boxing' and 'Sandboxing.' 8-)
07:29:15 PMDJQuad @revdjenk check out http://www.linlap.com/acer_aspire_s3 under where it says ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad
07:29:16 PMrevdjenk MrNaturopathy: you played in one as a kid? You tended to stay within it. The concept of sandbox is that an app, program, script stays within a set boundary, and if it gets squirrilly it won't affect the rest of the device.
07:29:57 PMrevdjenk DJQuad: I have before, but thought that was a special gaming touchpad. thanks will look again
07:30:13 PMagamotto make&&make&install?
07:30:20 PMrevdjenk I've used some of the other hints there before
07:30:25 PMMrNaturopathy Oh OK ,I have heard a Geek say it the other day and I had no idea what he was talking about. Thanks
07:30:47 PMABQTKY Gee, I would've thought you'd use Synaptic to search for 'Synaptic.'
07:31:09 PMagamotto chuckles, even
07:31:36 PMrevdjenk ABQTKY: hee hee
07:32:47 PMagamotto CSS tells the pictures where to go
07:32:59 PM_Jot_ HTML are requests to render text in a certain way but a browser is totally free to ignore it entirely
07:35:33 PMDJQuad remember how bad IE 3 borked html? they went rogue!
07:35:53 PMDennis_Kelley Nes
07:35:56 PMDennis_Kelley News
07:37:35 PM_Jot_ I have a big windows problem indeed! If I open them, it becomes really, really cold inside
07:37:58 PMagamotto I usually say "Oh god, what now?"
07:38:30 PMrevdjenk Brick all the things!
07:38:51 PMagamotto Nah, just the Windows ones
07:38:56 PMrevdjenk _Jot_: no snow here, yet!
07:39:02 PMrevdjenk just rainy and cold
07:39:21 PMrevdjenk agamotto: yes, sorry! Got a little carried away!
07:40:43 PMagamotto I wouldn't mind an e-paper display in say, jacket sleeves, with news updates, etc...
07:40:56 PMDennis_Kelley RRR SashaD
07:41:04 PMDJQuad i don't think Robbie knows women care about style. men couldn't give a darn
07:41:54 PMDJQuad even if it were a stormtrooper helmet, men would wear it
07:42:06 PMagamotto We care about style, but refuse to suffer for it... ex: high heels
07:42:23 PMrevdjenk graphine can make watches or the electrical "wires"
07:42:37 PMDennis_Kelley nothing wrong with Stormtroopers - DJQuad
07:42:46 PMrevdjenk mini silicon bullets?
07:43:24 PMDJQuad of course not fellow dude. there aren't many female stormtroopers. lol
07:43:45 PMagamotto "Go back to whence thou camest!"
07:44:02 PMrevdjenk DJQuad: get used to it!
07:44:09 PMDJQuad lol
07:44:17 PMDennis_Kelley I see it
07:45:28 PMRobbieF thanks dk, thanks.
07:45:29 PMRobbieF :)
07:45:41 PMrevdjenk DJQuad: I've applied the changes to my /etc/rc.local file... next boot, we will see
07:46:12 PM_Jot_ Everybody knows RobbieF's password is 1234
07:46:31 PMDJQuad yay revdjenk! let me know how it goes
07:46:36 PMrevdjenk _Jot_: it was "incorrect" before that
07:47:24 PMrevdjenk DJQuad: the small print said, "it hasn't been tested on the Aspire S3, yet
07:47:32 PMDJQuad heh
07:47:42 PMnapa_polarbear me
07:47:44 PMDJQuad it should
07:49:15 PMrevdjenk DJQuad: I usually only reboot once a month or so...hmmmm
07:49:45 PMDJQuad lol same here
07:51:28 PMagamotto If what comes out of the tap isn't good enough... move.
07:52:21 PM_Jot_ yeah, exactly :)
07:52:30 PMFirecracker mmm canned air, someone was watching Spaceballs
07:52:57 PM_Jot_ they sell canned air, to spray things with for cleaning
07:53:13 PMrevdjenk RobbieF: TheChrista yes, I just added a change in my /etc/rc.local file to adjust sensitivity. My settings in the gui setting are already at the lowest
07:53:22 PMrevdjenk I will try the usb mouse
07:53:39 PMrevdjenk it is just from slight finger touch
07:53:45 PMrevdjenk not my wrist
07:54:32 PMrevdjenk mac is a cousing
07:54:34 PMrevdjenk cousin
07:54:59 PMSashaD Oh!
07:55:10 PMagamotto A Lord of COBOL!!!! Here, in our presence!
07:55:22 PM_Jot_ COBOL isn't difficult
07:55:26 PMrevdjenk SashaD: a RICH cousin!
07:55:50 PMABQTKY RevDJenk - It's not you, not linux - those little gizmos are just TOUCHY. Get a cheap wireless mouse.
07:56:09 PMrevdjenk ABQTKY: I HATE meeces to peeces
07:56:29 PMagamotto I prefer trackballs, much easier on the wrists
07:56:31 PMSashaD Gotcha!... I know very little in the technology world
07:56:52 PMDJQuad cobol reminds me of malted milk balls and makes me hungry
07:57:48 PMagamotto SFX in... 3... 2.... 1....
07:58:03 PMagamotto Hmmm, Robbie is a Taelon?
07:58:10 PMDennis_Kelley Do i1
07:58:12 PMDJQuad robbie's shirt is snowing
07:58:17 PMDennis_Kelley *it
07:58:41 PMrevdjenk SashaD: you need a little device table in front of you, just short enough for the "desk"
07:59:28 PMSashaD I agree wholeheartedly
07:59:47 PMSashaD But at least I have a chair
07:59:53 PMagamotto TheChrista: How do you serve shitake mushrooms and caviar without overwhelming either?
08:00:23 PMrevdjenk SashaD: check music sites. there are tablet/phone holders much like mic/music stands
08:00:37 PMrevdjenk adjustable
08:00:45 PMTheChrista Haha, agamotto! That's not a quick question....I have no idea
08:01:03 PMTheChrista but please feel free to create dishes and mail them over....I will sample them and let you know when you aare getting close
08:01:15 PMrevdjenk TheChrista: hee hee
08:01:19 PMDJQuad some wordpress themes have great wysiwyg editors to replace the default one
08:01:47 PMagamotto TheChrista: If it weren't for the shipping times from Toronto to your area, I would consider it. I can get ice cream to Toronto in three days, to Barrie it takes over a week!
08:01:53 PMSashaD Great idea :)
08:01:54 PMrevdjenk in 45 minutes!
08:02:15 PMagamotto Oooooo
