@lsiunsuex I've never had a problem uploading from OS X either - I only mentioned it in response because file path was an issue - but that's a browser issue. When a web page hangs and waits and waits for an upload, that's going to be in the transfer, not a file path issue. I've uploaded to other SE sites and even here without trouble. I suspect there were networking errors.

anyone have an example of uploading an image to imgur via php ?

version 3 is out now (apparently) and everything i'm reading is for version 2

@ChrisCudmore There isn't a problem with wires in ducts, during normal circumstances. The problems start if there is a fire. Wires in ducts are fuel, which may allow fire to "climb" the ducts. Burning wires produce toxic fumes, and ducts provide a way to efficiently distribute said toxic fumes.

return air ducts distribute toxic fumes just as well as any other ducts.

The key difference is that heating and ac are pressurized, but CARs are not.

Only when the HVAC unit is running.

If Heat/AC come on during a fire, it's probably not good with or without wires in the ducts.

Hi there, any German DIY enthusiasts around?

Nicht!

Schade :-)

Nein.

No, we don't do well engineered, functional and attractive solutions here.

;-)

we talk about crappy builders, programming and redheads here

whats your question dude

That was not the intention why I was asking. I just wanted to look for some supporters for my german DIY proposal at area51 - area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/53758/…

We could talk about German Redheads

Why is a German specific version required?

thumbup

We aim to support a global community.

damn germans; always trying to break from the crowd

I'm not sure we get enough traffic here to warrant splitting the audience.

It's not required but I could think of some ppl that do not speak English and on the other hand there may be some specific problems that only occur in Germany or can be discussed in the German language

That's what Google Translate is for.

Cool, what's that?

Run this regex to translate it into German specific problems. s/mexican/turk/g

Thanks for your support guys :-) Bye

wheres @NiallC. or @BMitch - specific SE policy on asking a question in a foreign language?

I believe on the language-specific sites, it's that language or English; everywhere else, it's English only.

@GottliebNotschnabel You should be able to get at least one supporter: meta.diy.stackexchange.com/questions/735/…

really hate notification center in OS X - i know theres a GD system update - stop telling me every 5 minutes please - i'll install it when i have a chance.

Apparently Bill Gates tore someone a new one after being pestered every 15 minutes to reboot after installing something. He was really ticked off over that one. "I know I need to reboot. But I don't want to NOW."

@ChrisCudmore now it lets you know 2 days in advance

Oh, that's just annoying. Pester me for two days when I can't do anything about it?

@ChrisCudmore it just quietly tells you on your logon screen

and it might say something on the start screen...but I don't remember.

Also turning Win 8 off in software is a PITA

(though overall I actually do like it)

have yet to use metro on a touch screen

still no intention of office wide deployment - not until "blue" and a GPO to turn off "metro" network wide

@lsiunsuex I haven't had a chance yet, and the leap keeps getting delayed

would also be nice if closing an app was a bit more intuitive...

took me freaking forever to figure out how to do it

Can we add this to the FAQ? diy.stackexchange.com/questions/27831/…

i need to write a script...

i want to search southwest.com for air fair / hotel and pull the results for every single day between say july and october

then i want to loop through the days, 5 days at a time and add up the total

which every block of 5 days is the cheapest, thats when i want to go

my guess would be that you'd run afoul of their site's bot filter. There is a reason noone aggregates their faires

Yeah. That would be convenient. There's no good way to search for "I want to go somewhere warm, between Christmas and Easter for 7-12 days, whatever's cheapest"

i can search 5 days at a time obviously

i mean, in terms of vegas, its huge - the difference between a week theres an event at a hotel or not can be a difference of 1000

i probably should go somewhere else but everytime we talk about it, we end up talking about vegas - in 3 miles, i get great food, awesome pools, great night clubs / dj's, top of the line shops, shows - show me another city that in 3 miles i can do anything i want - from mcdonalds to a $50 filet, from gap to louis vuitton

Toronto, But you can't gamble.

(not that gap is bad - i wear gap)

yeah, but i'm 1.5 hours from toronto - thats not a vacation - its a weekend road trip :)

you can use matrix.itasoftware.com to compare for a large time period, but they don't import southwest

@lsiunsuex miami might be a runner-up for you

been thinking about miami - would like to go there

Good cheap cigars in Miami.

strait off drug boats from cuba!

Do a Road Trip. 3 days in Washington with Aaron, then off to Atlanta for a Wax Eagle party.

@TheEvilGreebo is up in baltimore somewhere and I think @BMitch is in Fairfax

the DIY.SE Road Show!

But the good news is that the weather should warm up in this area. Spring is here, because the Leafs are out.

where in TO are you? we might come up for our memorial day weekend with her sister

@ChrisCudmore is that a NHL joke?

Yeah. It is. youtube.com/watch?v=FkycQPL0D6M About 30 seconds in for one of the most beautifully executed goals ever.

I'm in Etobicoke. When's Memorial Day?

25th of may

@ChrisCudmore after may two-four

I'm working the Saturday AM, but free otherwise.

think they want to goto the zoo or some crap - haven't been to a zoo since i was 10 i think

That's 46 km away from me.

@lsiunsuex save you zoo visits til you've got kids...it'll be an every month thing then

30 miles.

I'm on the western edge of the city. The zoo is on the eastern edge.

her sister lives in connecticut so when she comes, the wife basically does whatever the sister want to do; which means i do whatever the sister wants to go

This is why you need armed guards in your schools down there: rawstory.com/rs/2013/05/14/…

if it was up to me, i'd put her lazy boyfriend to work on the patio, if i'm not done with it by then

@ChrisCudmore put the effing safety on mate.

she's taking the 4 month old to the zoo. I think he'll be asleep in 30 minutes

@Aaron sleeping baby in a stroller is therapeutic

opinion: giamban.co/projects/ignitedds/events.php

the iPhone app will get a "newsfeed" page - kinda like the wall on facebook

so... i have the json being produced anyways that kinda captures everything happening on the site - what'd you think about it appearing to the right of every page on the website ? kinda a, what else is happening type thing

@NiallC. hElP mE Mr. Wizard. I was attempting to use thumbnails and side-by-side photos and bumped my answer into Wiki land diy.stackexchange.com/questions/27827/…

@HerrBag I'm not a mod on Home Improvement; you need @tester101 or @bmitch

Try ultimate pinging them: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@tester101

That will dispatch Joel to his house,

@ChrisCudmore too funny

@ChrisCudmore or get you a phone call from atwood

@HerrBag I don't see any Home Improvement mods around; I'd say just flag your post and ask for it to be de-wiki-ed and one of them will get to it eventually

@NiallC thanks, will do

ultimate ping, heh

like a superping, but different

@ChrisCudmore Woven bacon strips? GENIUS!

@ChrisCudmore would that come with a bacon gravy salsa?

If it doesn't, then life just isn't worth living anymore.

seriouseats.com/recipes/2009/01/draft-chipotlebacon-salsa.html

m mm mmm I'll bring some Dos XX dark

@lsiunsuex If you decide to cross the border for your long weekend check the news first. The Liquour store folk are threatening a strike. That means stock up on liquour at duty free, and buy your wine as you pass the wineries in Niagara. Beer will be available.

@HerrBag All better now
