@OliverSalzburg Same in firebug for ff, great for pixel aligning
@Paul Oh cool, awesome
@OliverSalzburg Actually, I think it works with any number, so you can use it to change colors etc bit by bit. If it is a #111111 number it will increment to #121212 etc, and if an rgb(10,10,10) colour you can increment each colour component separately.
@Paul I just noticed it by accident. I should do more testing :D
Yeah, funny how we figure these things out. I was thinking "damn, this would be easier if I could just scroll the width somehow". Then decided I couldn't be the first to think of it, and then tried the up/down arrows.
@Paul Hehe, I was editing this multiline shadow and hit Up by accident
00:20
@OliverSalzburg: Any idea why my Stylebot wouldn't apply the CSS once I open my browser?
But it does when I refresh the page. Kind of annoying... :S
@TomWijsman That's weird
@OliverSalzburg: Try with a pinned tab.
Maybe it's conflicting with another extension?
@TomWijsman I always have Super User pinned
Let me restart to double-check
Works like a charm
But I'm using my fork, which is way more awesome obviously
00:44
[12434:12434:4141263980:ERROR:CONSOLE(322)] "Uncaught illegal access", source: chrome://chrome/uber.js (322)
Okay, can't scroll in the extensions page of Chrome. >_<
Dynamic linking is fine, should compile another Chromium tomorrow, am somewhat behind anyway...
01:29
@TomWijsman you are on Gentoo Tom? It is libreoffice and chromium that make me cringe most when it is time to emerge world.
@Paul Yeah, on Gentoo since July.
@Paul: An option is to make a package set @bigPackages and put them in there instead of @world.
I currently just mask them and every now and then run a eix-test-obsolete to see whether they are still in the tree.
Also going to consider to keyword them stable, as I'm on ~.
As for office, I just took the -bin version for now.
I can't do that for Google Chrome as there is a nasty bug which keeps processes open.
Can someone tell me if SNMP v3 uses community strings? I found this SO post. However, unless I missed read it, I doesn't answer whether or not it use community strings along with the user/pass. stackoverflow.com/q/10422762/225522
Or is there a better chat room to ask this question?
@TomWijsman I might be on bin for office on my laptop actually - I wasn't for a long time because the KDE integration in the bin version was pretty bad, but it seems ok. My desktop is still non-bin so endless compiles.
@Paul It doesn't bother me at all; parallel emerging / make, ccache, build dir in tmpfs, that kind of stuff...
01:44
@TomWijsman Yeah sure. But libreoffice is huge.
Yeah okay, but I don't compile that one because I'm unlikely to change it.
02:28
@KronoS: very funny with the live tile 'answer', I'd point out it might just stop updating when the screen 'sleeps' or something. I rather doubt it does tho
@JourneymanGeek congrats on still being ahead of me a week later :P
how's everyone doing? any east coasters feeling a bit... shall we say, under the weather?
@nhinkle: lol
@nhinkle: I think I just had REALLY good timing ;p
@JourneymanGeek timing was about the worst for me. I've been gone all weekend and it's the middle of the term. Who has time for answering questions?
@nhinkle: oh, most of those answers were in the first 4 days
after that its my usual pop by every couple of hours and answer anything juicy
02:42
@nhinkle: basically the browser 'rule' seems to be bent for applications using IE10 as a rendering engine, the google search app uses a IE10 renderer but isn't a 'browser'
You can use it like one though, the only differences being that it dosen't have a URL bar, and has the option to open a link in the default metro browser
that's interesting
might be worth pursuing
It isn't an answer though :/
darn my lack of coding skillz
@nhinkle: ever seen that screenshot where I had SE chat docked to the side of a full window?
yeah i did something like that in an example for a question i made
twas cool
02:59
@journeymangeek huh?
@KronoS: about the retina thing?
or did I get confused?
Link?
one moment
ok
I got confused
facepalms
sorry, still a little loopy from being sick ;p
I love the ability to see 10k+ posts now.
lol
yes, the dark steamy underbelly of SU ;p
03:04
Lol too true. Though the tools have been particularly useful.
I sorta forget which are 10K tools unless I'm in AU or SF
then I go NOOOOOOOO
:P
I miss edit priv on SU.
Lol I do that when I go to VTC or edit stuff on other sites.
Man I'm only one post and 4 votes away from getting to level 4
I miss VTC on SF. On the other hand, I kinda dig getting 'free' rep for janitorial work on AU
There just hasn't been any good hyper-v questions for me to answer :P
03:07
self answer
Well an I voted to close a question I answered before hand.
no one's gonna fuss unless its windows 8, and even then, the heck with the whiners ;p
@journeymangeek I will eventually but I'm pretty busy ATM.
Does anybody have Windows 8 questions as a function of time?
in raw amounts
@Misha: try the pinned link on the right
03:30
window-8 badge...i like it :)
Bob
Bob
03:59
Ah, @avirk in on level 4. Congrats!
Lol. that's how I feel about au some days.
04:26
morning
cyclone in chennai
bay depression means we have some heavy rains here
it's raining pretty heavily here too
@jokerdino hah
and it had to start raining even more heavily right at the time I got down from the bus >.<
04:27
Wnidows
@Paul only 3
@Sathya :P
Been munching on that bunch for a month.
Lol.funny. I was complaining about the weather too.
Here is is warm and sunny, clear skies, not too humid. Moan moan moan.
04:32
@Bob thanks....and I see that you are there too so congrats to you as well.
@jokerdino noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
@Sathya I do 5 every week.
You'll easily get more than 5 every day. Don't worry.
:P
ok #1 suggested, with edit summary:
> teeny tiny typo
:P
back in a bit, breakfast time
biab, lunch time
@Sathya here is a sunny day......
Bob
Bob
04:43
@Paul lol yup, just about perfect here too
most interesting thing that's happened in the last couple of months were slightly high winds
@Bob America hit by "Sandy" and India could be by "Neelam"
05:11
ahh home
and not too damp, and my hoodie got the worst of it
@JourneymanGeek was on journey?
@avirk: mom just got back from india, and had the flu, had to go buy lunch out
...
It isn't raining now.
@jokerdino: that was horrible enough to ignore ;p
@jokerdino: It was when I left ;p
@JourneymanGeek and now Is she alright?
05:16
@JourneymanGeek yep :D
@JourneymanGeek yeah. it was raining when i was going off for lunch.
@avirk: still has the flu. Hence me not wanting to have her cook, or me cook (and having dishes to do)
of course, despite me clearing out the dishes she somehow managed to find dishes to do... and things to clean and I was like MOM GO REST
@jokerdino If you have a car then it doesn't matter, but sure that rain is not too heavy :)
It was quite heavy actually.
took the bus, unless its windy, there's shelter to the bustop, and a slightly circuitous route from the other bus stop to the place where I was gonna buy food
Bob
Bob
05:18
Ok.
@JourneymanGeek they should be.
(getting back is annoying though, adephi's overpass has the worst exit ever
Bob
Bob
I've given up on telling people about the Windows 8 licences.
What about the Win 8 license?
@Bob lol
Bob
Bob
05:19
@jokerdino they got rid of 'retail' and added 'personal use', which is essentially retail, to the 'system builder' package alongside 'oem'
people are confused.
shrug.
It's MS' fault
@jokerdino: what was that meme generator site again?
Bob
Bob
lol
yup
@JourneymanGeek quickmeme?
memegenerator.net
no, the other one ;p
I guess this will do

@JourneymanGeek My best wishes for her to "get well soon"
Bob
Bob
o.O
Bob
Bob
if I didn't mess up a calculation somewhere, 20% of Windows 8 questions in the challenge were closed :S
wow
I wonder what the site-wide stats are
05:22
@Bob: I'm surprised there arn't more

Q: Is there an equivalent to OSX time machine in Windows 8?

avirkI have heard that Windows 8 is providing a tool like time machine of Mac. What is it called in Windows and how does it work?

That did the 1k view tile for me :)
Bob
Bob
@avirk probably because @OliverSalzburg put it on Reddit :P
gencha
@Bob when he did it?
is it question like for there?
@avirk yesterday
He spammed on three sub reddits
05:25
You could have just posted the link to the tweet.
@Bob even Jon Skeet can't get the MS license stuff :P
@jokerdino I didn't even do that :)
Bob
Bob
lol
I'll say it again: Win8 shouldn't have been released for another 6 months, at least
@avirk Screenshot and then upload.. I am too lazy.
Bob
Bob
probably some idiot in management decided to push it out early
05:27
@Bob: I suspect they were rushing it out to try to steal the thunder from apple and google
Bob
Bob
I don't see how they coulf have effed licensing that badly without some sabotage
@Bob: might have made more sense to drop the small system builder licence and make that the retail version
@Bob they didn't cleared in their EULA, they should have to put a separate link for that :P
@jokerdino ?
@jokerdino because I replied his tweet guys :P
Oh joy - my Windows 8 Pro product key is now apparently only valid for upgrade, not for a clean install. That wasn't at all clear before :(
I need one more tile and it cost me -50 rep :(
However I can't write a blog for Win 8 :P
Its only 50 rep ;p
do it, dooo it
you can make it back
@JourneymanGeek I didn't find a question yet for me to put a bounty :P
Can you refer me any ?
05:33
not really
else I would have done it too ;p
@JourneymanGeek you have not announced the bounty yet?
oh? did one this month already
just not a windows 8 question, one for a tool I found interesting
Oliver put the bounty on the question which I had already answered and won the 50 rep and again Oliver paid me 50 for the same as there were no new shortcuts left :P
@JourneymanGeek got that?
got what?
@JourneymanGeek that tool you was looking for?
05:36
oh, its a bit complex
hmmmm
the tool I found was an answer to another question. Didn't quite work in that situation but it was cool enough to give the rep to
complexity is not good ffor me :P

Q: How can I reverse mouse movement (X & Y axis) system-wide? (Win 7 x64)

ScivitriShort Version I'm looking for a way to reverse the X and Y mouse axis movements. The computer is running Windows 7, x64 and Logitech SetPoint 6.32. I would like a system-level, permanent fix; such as a mouse driver modification or a registry tweak. Does anyone know of a solid way of implement...

@JourneymanGeek Turn the monitor upside down?
05:37
@JourneymanGeek what If I don't get all the tiles, surely I will not get the Blog tile for me.
@avirk: what's that matter again? ;p
@Paul: that was sort of my first guess in the other question superuser.com/questions/495076/…
@JourneymanGeek if we don't win all the tiles for Win 8 contest then what is the prize and if we do then what is the prize?
no difference. You just mentioned you needed one more tile
@JourneymanGeek actually I left the blog tile :P
so that's why between 2 only one tile is left for me and that is bounty awarded :P
Does this edit make sense to SDK users: superuser.com/review/suggested-edits/45487
05:42
@Paul: I'm personally leaning towards closing that
edit may be valid, with improvements, the OP mentions the sharepoint SDK in comments
Aaah, the comments. I couldn't figure out why something apparently unrelated would be a good idea to add.
@JourneymanGeek Very close to closing, but I tidied it up anyway
06:06
@KronoS there?
didn't know dude was a dev evangelist for MSFT
blah, I feel bad about vtcing stuff I feel are really borderline dupes
06:28
i know how you feel
@avirk you panged?
@Sathya holy crap! I just realized who that was!
@MatthewWong: I'd fell less bad if not for the challenge. I don't usually mind the janitorial work that comes with being a 10K+
@KronoS someone who you know/bumped into?
@Sathya not personally, but his name is plastered all over SO (as an advertisement)
and he's helping with apptivate.ms
that's how I gathered that (dropped by win-8 dev chat room)

Q: Can the Windows 8 Live SDK use another Microsoft Account other than the current user?

Jerry NixonUsing the Windows 8 Live SDK you can have a user give you permission to their Microsoft Account. With this you can get their name and photo and more. But using the Live SDK appears to require the user of the app to use the same Microsoft Account as whoever is signed into the current session of Wi...

speaking of which shouldn't that be on SO?
I donno, should it?
@JourneymanGeek that or programmers maybe... it's not language specific and more of a general how to idea.
XD. I am so totally not familiar with either of them ;p
-sigh- no windows 8 questions...
I feel bad... but I've been dishing out a lot of "invalid flags" here recently
06:44
how do you know how many invalid flags you gave out?
@MatthewWong: high rep users have a flag queue
its not as definitive as the mod flag queue
That's what it looks like as far as history goes
would this be a valid question to ask? lets say i wanted to get the watermark from build 7989 and transfer it to build 9200?
@KronoS wut.
@MatthewWong: I'd personally consider it not to be
06:52
@Sathya that's my flagging history
there's no practical use for it
hmm okay
oh dear god
@avirk you panged?
06:54
superuser.com/a/496778/10165 anyone with an autoedit script handy?
the caps, oh my dear sainted aunt, the caps.
@KronoS yep! I want to borrow a blog for Windows 8 from you ;)
it hurts my eyes
@avirk O.o not sure I understand... but if you wanna talk about the blog let's migrate to here:

 Super User Blog Editor Room

Where the editors drink coffee and try to get things done!
@JourneymanGeek on it screw it. Not worth.
@avirk: that would be cheating :/
@KronoS: did the one I upload come out ok? Or should I have posted it in meta?
06:56
@KronoS @jou got me hehehehehe
@JourneymanGeek you should post to meta... I don't mind you uploading to blog, but I can't keep track (nor can people vote) of the post unless it's on the Meta post
@KronoS: more like did that work?
oh I don't know yet :P
@sathya is it "neelam" in India?
cause yanno, the blog system has been a bit.. problematic for me in the past ;p
