ok, I'm a retard. Installed AMD drivers, then configured it form the registry manually and it worked. (Still doesn't show in the GUI configuration but oh well)
Do we get this question every year now?

@slhck Huh. I THOUGHT it sounded familiar.
Should've checked.
Heh.
Both prompted by xkcd... instead of personal experience :P

I've gotta be missing some.
Perhaps there's another one we didn't find yet.
@OliverSalzburg NARQ. Next!
Bob
Bob
ooh so close!
@slhck the 2011 one was personal experience :P
But, seriously, I really don't like the 'practical problem' reasoning... far too easy to abuse
there's lots of perfectly good theoretical questions
unless our goal is to become a troubleshooting-only site...
Yeah, we don't take that rule too strictly anyway.

@slhck it's one of those where there may well be more exceptions than not
kinda like SF's professional rule, actually :P
if it sounds professional...
in our case, if it sounds possible or interesting...
@slhck Next year, I'll make sure to ask that question again.
6 pages of google - pretty certain no other dupes now :(
@Bob Please do that :P
I wonder when someone's going to complain about the merge
But seriously—it's 100% the same question, three times now.

@slhck Heh. At least two answers referencing the same Raymond post :P
I wonder if he's still active on SO
Damn, I wish he saw it in hot questions and answered it himself...
Maybe next year? ;)
> seen 1 hour ago
Huh.
He seems very active indeed.
Whenever I post something in the winapi tag on SO, he's not far :P

@OliverSalzburg to be fair, his comments were not very serious. Neither was the other commenter's.
"Stop trying to solve a problem we're not telling you how to solve - you should only do things our documentation tells you to although closed source libraries already do this thing you're asking how to do"
@BenjaminGruenbaum That wasn't our first encounter
@OliverSalzburg doesn't make it any better of a comment.
That's why IE is such a failing product. If I had this problem with Firefox or Chrome I'd know exactly who I could talk to.
I could get people to actually consider including this in next versions of Chrome/Firefox. It's a simple process.
@Bob the practical problem thing is more of "don't make up scenarios that are extremely unlikely to ever occur and which you don't actually face as a real problem, just to get votes and answers"
if you ask a theoretical question, almost always it's going to be ok; if you ask a practical question and you have this actual problem right now, it's going to be ok; if you ask a practical question and you don't have that problem, and it's very unlikely that anyone ever would, it's not a good fit for the site
even worse, asking a practical question that you don't actually face means that you won't be able to test any answers to determine which ones are correct or incorrect
so whatever you select as the answer will be based on your best guess of how to treat that situation, not the results of actually doing what the answer said to do

@allquixotic Minifying with closure takes several seconds; with uglify, it's 1.5 seconds
So I'm going to default to uglify, methinks, but there'll still be a closure option
 
1 hour later…
22:31
@Zirak several seconds on what hardware? also, is it that really that bad if it takes several seconds? native builds of stuff usually take minutes; a few seconds isn't so bad...
I guess, as long as the master.min.js you commit to your repo is built with closure, it's an improvement
Bob
Bob
23:17
@Zirak Well, you're not minifying it very often... are you?
23:28
AOT compilation of Java code... might be able to do that to closure to improve startup time / reduce compilation time of master.js
23:58
@allquixotic: I just came across this ... andarazoroflove.org/code/cdebian
@JourneymanGeek :"D yeah, CDE was opensourced
@allquixotic: this is the first functional distro of it I've seen.
