@JourneymanGeek one issue with that is that you can't handle flags
 
@Avery true but I can keep an eye on two chats at once
SU and Tavern on the meta has most of my attention
 
@djsmiley2k 20.13 minutes.
 
@JourneymanGeek also yay for bigclive
 
I know, I am just bashing windows for free.
 
2:06 PM
Btw, did he test the butt electric shoc thingy in the designated hole?
 
@satibel likely not
plus yeah, that kind of cheapo electro stuff is risky and he probably knows that
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek I prefer the app pinning tbh :P
 
I-It's not like i have an extensive information in the area.
 
G2G,bye.
 
2:08 PM
lol
 
Bob
It does this fancy blue glowing when someone talks :D
 
or on the best theme:
(the dev mode theme now ships with stable: about:addons -> Appearance -> Compact Dark)
 
Bob
@Avery yea, they have a proper (non-compact) dark theme too
I'm not really a fan of dark themes
 
Bob
Hm. My manager said we should go to more conferences. Anyone want to suggest some good tech (dev, etc) conferences? :P
 
2:13 PM
You missed I/O. Try //build.
 
Bob
@Avery I used aurora like that for a while... didn't really like it
@Avery that also passed
 
for the next year I mean
 
Bob
ah, maybe
 
I use my own soda chat fork.
 
2:18 PM
Ah, I see
 
2:33 PM
@Bob NickConf. You openly engage in a video chat with me where I tell you about the latest technology that may prove useful to your organization. Then, we'll continue on with a discussion about business strategy and new oppurtunities.
 
eww
do you at least wash it first?
 
hmm...
the clone in sourcetree button doesn't work
 
@JourneymanGeek No, I saw how unhygenic that statement was the moment I worded it. I think's it's residual brain gunk of being a stand-up comedian for too long.
@Burgi reload, hit it agauin. Still doesn't work? Check source code.
@Avery What's soda chat?
@OliverSalzburg Well, I've pinged everyone else, I might as well ping you too. Don't want you tofeel left out.
 
@Nick what?
 
I'm not even going to bother fixing my typos anymore,,this is the internet.
@Burgi ,,,inspect element
 
2:40 PM
its an NS error
 
@JourneymanGeek honestly did I make you laugh with that,, even a smirk.
 
Well, maybe I should quit my comedy gig while I'm ahead. Atleast I've made a name for myself in the scene.
 
"don't hire this guy"
 
@Burgi I will make sure to quote you on my resume.
 
2:46 PM
like on a movie poster? :)
 
Yes, exactly.
Applicant : Titanic Lookout In-charge
Description: Don't hire this guy
 
3:10 PM
OMFG!
 
3:21 PM
the customer has asked if we can run the site (where they collect credit cards) without an SSL
 
3:32 PM
julian assange is free
funny thing is if he had gone to sweden and been convicted he would have been out of jail ages ago by now
so he has effectively served a longer sentence
sings
HIIIIIGHWAAAAAAAAAY TO THE DAAAANGEEEEERRR ZONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
4:04 PM
@Burgi tbf I'm not a big fan of his

Bob
@Burgi not yet, still on the hook for skipping bail, no?
 
idk
he is one of your lot, do you want him back?
 
Bob

i was on hold for 20 mins, spoke to someone for 5, she went to put me on hold and cut me off
power companies in the UK suck
 
@Burgi Did u call em when u moved in:
 
7:00 PM
And did u change power companies...?
@Burgi i'm trying to help :(
Is it first utility btw, as that sounds like the stupid thing they do, where they go 'oh the old tenent has left, but we don't have an address for htem, just send it to the house anyway' hoping that it'll some how magically get to the old tenant
wait ... @Avery

@djsmiley2k two hours

7:19 PM

Bah wrong link. Wanted the comment this time, lol
 
8:56 PM
Random note: NO Bluetooth dropouts with Android 7.1 on the LG G6 on AT&T \o/ (cc @Bob @JourneymanGeek - you know, the usual people who listened to me complain about that for years)
now, is the fix because:
- Nougat
- LG
- AT&T
- Qualcomm
- Just more horsepower?
 
Bob
@allquixotic should've tried on the S8 first :P
 
@Bob Shit. I didn't :(
The Snapdragon 821 seems pretty good as far as heat, too
probably an over-compensation after the 81x series was awful
I'm tethering (at 25 Mbps at my desk, thank God) and playing music over BT and it's room temperature
 
Bob
lol
I have a 820 (Xperia) that overheated and shut down in my bag while acting as a hotspot after ~30min continuous download
 
wow
btw. jHipster is great when you actually design a viable entity model
liquibase is awesome too... I changed my schema substantially and it figured out how to do the right thing

Same happens when you try to turn most antivirus off, it starts screaming at you "You are not protected! You are vulnerable to viruses, malware, leprosy, and genocide! Please turn us back on immediately!" — DasBeasto 8 hours ago
 
10:32 PM
@Bob lol
The SD821 in my OnePlus 3T can get quite toasty under continuous load, but the phone's metal unibody and high overall efficiency means it's never really an issue.
Yes, it will throttle if you run something hard on it nonstop. No, I've never had a thermal shutdown or other serious thermal problems with it.
 
@allquixotic yay!!!
 
10:50 PM
engadget.com/2017/05/19/… this is messed up
 
11:08 PM
...just decided to use Microsoft Edge a bit. It never ceases to amaze me just how efficient and lightweight it is.
Mozilla desperately needs to make Firefox more efficient.
 
@JourneymanGeek Annnnnd there is one of several reasons I own zero Apple products
 
@BenN Its not justapple tho

Compared to Edge, Firefox uses an obscene amount of compute to render complex pages.
 
@JourneymanGeek Indeed; that's just one most relevant to me
I do drive a Toyota though :/
 
11:16 PM
Imagine if you couldn't bring your car in to your own mechanic
 
@JourneymanGeek Yeah.
 
and in the US a car is what? Something you will use for maybe 15-20 years?
 
Yep. That car is as old as me :D
 
My dad drives a volvo (until tommorrow anyway)
Our air-conditioner needed repairs and a third party place was about a third of the cost
Not having that option woulda been bad

Now I need to learn PowerShell because it's the default for version 1703; cmd is deprecated :(
I'm probably going out to get a PowerShell book in a few days.
@BenN, what are the best PowerShell books for someone with a programming background but with no significant shell scripting experience?
 
Um, I don't know, actually :/
I would suggest finding a thing you want to do and researching until you can do it
 
Not an IT admin, but will probably have to use it in a home environment quite often; may need to learn it for a future job.
Again, cmd is deprecated as of Windows 10 version 1703.
 
I'm not sure if it's so much deprecated as deemphasized
 
A book that covers version 5.0 or later (Windows 10) is ideal.
 
I'm pretty sure MS will never remove it; there are piles and piles of scripts everywhere that use classic batch - even Microsoft program installers frequently launch a cmd /c to do a little thing
 
Get-ChildItem replaces dir: It looks like PowerShell treats the file system as a collection of objects...
