I know; my thought is that you'd make sure it wasn't at some other value wherever it is saved, by changing it to something else.

ErraticFox

Because if it was timeout value for when my screen turns of automatically, I would be able to wake it up.

To be honest, I think I'm going to go back to Windows 8.

Thor

To be honest, I think you should a) try a repair for the sake of it, or b) do a clean install.

ErraticFox

Microsoft is out to get me, I'm telling you. >.>

Thor

I strongly, strongly doubt the behaviour you are seeing is the result of 8.1 in particular, and not as the reslt of one of your own actions. :p

@ErraticFox Yeeeaaaah, well - I don't buy it! Unless you've got a patent, it's not very likely.

ErraticFox

I know, but they took stuff away, like the ability to change the vertical tile rows of the users choice.

"Unless you got a patent" made me chuckle good.

Thor

12:09

They also added things like "Boot to desktop" and other little enhancements that are nice. What is the ability to change the vertical tile rows that you're talking about?

ErraticFox

eightforums.com/general-support/…

Every time I post a message in chat here, it scrolls down into a white abyss. :s

Thor

Again, you seem to have some strange core issues. :p

ErraticFox

I'm telling you... Microsoft

Thor

@ErraticFox Regarding that issue, I personally have been fine with "Show more tiles" on, but I can see how people have different needs.

Anonymous

hello everyone

ErraticFox

12:16

Oh I don't know how many times I've heard "Show more tiles", I wish there was a "Show less tiles". It's a bother having 6 vertical rows. I want four! :(

Thor

@ErraticFox 'tis a shame!

@Thor why would i be dead?

@PatoSáinz Now that's a different question! I don't know; there are numerous causes of death, some bizarre, while others are decently normal.

@JimmyHoffa Thanks for getting it started. Took some extra doing (see the commit log) but I have PhantomJS 2.0 tech preview, headless, with persistent storage, without shims, working now, with the Firefox HTML5 storage imported :D :D :D :D :D

killall -9 Xrdp (with a SIGKILL for emphasis)

basically I ran !!export on the FF side, then did a raw github pastie of the b64 text, then ran !!import and changed the semantics of that command to do a synchronous XHR to go fetch a raw file from a remote server and capture that into a string, then do your magic b64 decode and JSON parse and save thing

@Ash because die is a communal command.... but if people start killing the bot when it's not misbehaving, i might have to make that a non-communal owner-only command

it's communal because there is the possibility that the bot might start spamming endlessly or something stupid like that, and it's a safeguard against that happening when no moderators or room owners are here

but it's not to be abused to silence the bot when it is working normally

Ash

did it died last time i commenced the command ?

@tapped-out nope... it reads the command text with the HTML formatting as applicable, and it doesn't understand it

for instance it sees the command as !! <b>help</b>

even if it removed the <> for security reasons, it'd still try to look for a command called bhelpb which doesn't exist

Hennes

Grah, the USB specs is confuzling.

tapped-out

nods that's a good thing. just wanted to see if there'd be any weird bugs

allquixotic

@Hennes USB does better than WiFi though, by far, at making a coherent spec that vendors have to follow

though a significant part of the wondrous compatibility of USB devices is also in the driver layer in both Linux and Windows

a lot of little special cases and quirks

Hennes

I would have expected a low speed sync. Get capabilities. Decide common max. Then an option to set that.

Not an electrical dance

A bit like old SCSI-1: 5Mhz async 8 bit connection. Get device info

Bob

15:38

@Hennes not enough to know what the max of devices is, you need to account for shitty cables

the goal of USB was high compatibility

Hennes

USB counts the devices differently from firewire (which has a similar OHCI setup) ?
