What an edit.

However, I don't like it.

Mateo

hm, too much bold

Andrew

How is Atom Text Editor? Have you try it?

hbdgaf

@Andrew it looks interesting to me, but i'll wait for someone who isn't me to write one "killer app" with it before i start looking at learning another toolkit

Andrew

@hbdgaf I try it, to me it is junk. I like KATE the best or Greany

hbdgaf

I like sublimetext just fine. Also, I saw an awesome vimrc the other day

Andrew

00:38

What is Sublime text?

hbdgaf

https://www.google.com/search?q=sublimetext
and the vim config
http://vimeo.com/42399125

Andrew

Oh it is the Mircosoft JUNKILOD.

One of them.

hbdgaf

it has nothing to do with microsoft... derp

Andrew

They are only in it for the $$$ and not for the community

hbdgaf

How are they in it for the money? It's absolutely free with a nag screen and almost no price-tag to remove the nag - or a trivial patch?

Andrew

00:42

sublimetext.com/buy

Free?

hbdgaf

See my previous statement. Read it more slowly

Mateo

that reminded me why I have some small icons... much better ;)

hbdgaf

@Mateo ?

Andrew

@hbdgaf still don't you get what you mean... so you use vim?

hbdgaf

@Andrew I can use vim, but I use sublimetext from the webupd8 ppa for the cost of putting up with a nag screen until I pay for it.

Andrew

00:45

One I mean Free as in Freedom, for two I mean too Free like in free items, too. IF it doesn't fit one of the two than it is not Free

Mateo

hbdgaf

@Andrew it fits 2... you're being dense. it's no FOSS, but it is free...

Andrew

So it is a tral?

"Sublime Text may be downloaded and evaluated for free, however a license must be purchased for continued use."

hbdgaf

@Andrew stop quoting the website and listen. it's not a time limited trial. it just has a nag screen. resists the urge to caps lock

Andrew

Why should I paid to use a web broswer? If there is one that cost, than why should I buy a lincense to it? Same for a text editor. All Web Broswer all free about...

Oh then try ATOM

hbdgaf

00:48

and you're on ignore

Andrew

@hbdgaf why?

hbdgaf

@Mateo good call ;)

Andrew

So what is better about Sublime Text than ATOM?

hbdgaf

mind if i shoot a business card prototype past you for feedback? i'll fire it off to the email i have at some point after i finish it.

Andrew

@hbdgaf are you there?

Mateo

00:53

@hbdgaf sure, I can send some pointers, maybe common pitfalls, design stuff, or just what I might like about.

hbdgaf

mostly an "i like this, i don't like that. i might do this other bit more like this." and do you have any thoughts on using stand-out fonts versus something really vanilla? times, sans, or mono are all really common, but a font from some game or series might make the card pop - at the risk of looking unprofessional

@Mateo i also toyed with a black background with white text to make it really - "wait what?" subconsciously it just stands out for no reason.

Mateo

sure there are some fonts to avoid

hbdgaf

i'm so not using comic or anything. i just don't know where i might want to draw the line on different versus unprofessional

also, i'm paying 2.6k/yr for lot rent. thinking about seeing what it would take to get this with a contingent purchase based on seller funded perk testing and rolling the power, phone, and water hook-ups in to the loan: coldwellbanker.com/… - would be so much cheaper than what i'm doing now... of course i would be a little further from work with no pool.

Mateo

usually using one from a family with it's corresponding types, and then a second completely different style to contrast (a "this is done on purpose" type of thing - where using arial with helvetica... dosn't really work)

hbdgaf

I wasn't going to mix font types, just a more off the wall or unexpected font

Braiam

01:01

o/

hbdgaf

@Braiam o/

Braiam

anyone using "Fixedsys"?

hbdgaf

Hah - if I were developing a quarters based atari emulator for drinking establishments and wanted to hand out cards to potential buyers, i would so use that font and a space invaders themed background

Braiam

yeah, brings back memories

hbdgaf

I was also thinking a shellcode ascii art background. if you catch it, you win a discount sort of thing ;)

Braiam

01:08

O_O

hbdgaf

There is no saying that wouldn't be awesome.

Andrew

@Braiam what brings back memories?

Mateo

@hbdgaf make it a table top touch that is liquid proof and you could be on to something ;)

Andrew

You can Glass, Plasic...

hbdgaf

@Mateo the problem with cheap tabletop touch is it requires a projector, which means no legroom... so you don't get to do tables in drinking establishments

Braiam

01:13

do anyone really need multiple root accounts?

Lucio

Great article: The Switch (not that switch)

Mateo

@hbdgaf hm, yeah, remember the old projection tv's?

hbdgaf

@Mateo yeah, but then you can only sit on one side of the table...

if you're trying to make it a table, it needs not to break table norms

Mateo

it would be a "booth", so only partially better

Journeyman Geek

@hbdgaf: they designed it like that because they had to put it down

Braiam

01:18

OKEY! now how are you @JourneymanGeek??????

Journeyman Geek

no reason you couldn't design a projection tv like \__|__/

hbdgaf

@JourneymanGeek you think so? I think the projection beam starts at the base and comes off a mirror. at least that's how my uncle's worked...

Journeyman Geek

@hbdgaf: and they use a fresnel lens to shorten the throw?

hbdgaf

you could, but the refraction on the lens would have to be extreme and that means a higher density source and that means it costs more

Journeyman Geek

damn it, makes me wish I dumpster dived the last projection TV I saw

or you get a short throw projector

maybe one of those tiny ones they have these days

hbdgaf

01:20

SUPER short throw ;)

Mateo

so we're thinking like a T for a table

Journeyman Geek

and eh, I'm tempted to set up my dad's old office projector again

Mateo

you can project from above but then hand's get in the way

hbdgaf

they're doing neat things with mist and 3d projections, but that's not a projection table.

jrg

whoa, when did @JourneymanGeek get a diamond?

hbdgaf

01:27

he has had a diamond for quite some time...

Braiam

@jrg behold! he has 2! D:

SR pro-tempore and SU

jrg

has been living under a rock for almost a year

Braiam

@jrg that would explain some things

hbdgaf

i like living under rocks. it's totally an okay thing to do

Mateo

@jrg find anything cool under there

jrg

01:30

@JorgeCastro @Oli Yeah, I really want to know when we get that box, it's real shiny.

@Mateo no. lost my sanity to a slug though.

Mateo

well, at least he won't get too far with it ;)

@hbdgaf oh, how about a regular wide screen, but then do the touch sensing through cameras from the ceiling?

Seth

:O

@JourneymanGeek is no longer a dog!

He has morphed into a face.

hbdgaf

@Mateo you could, but the IR stuff at the table level might be easier. i just don't know if you could handle the heat coming off the widescreen and still see fingertips...

Mateo

ah, were there wouldn't be any ir from the projected image...

the tv might wash that out

hbdgaf

it might

@NathanOsman How does it compare with the ever bizarre bazaar?

@NathanOsman ebooks.stackexchange.com/questions/1284/…

Nathan Osman

@Seth It's probably more similar to Bazaar than Git.

Git offers nearly no overhead on branching. And apparently you can't delete a branch in Mercurial.

Seth

Interesting.

Thanks ;)

bcsteeve

02:38

Can I ask a frustrating question about permissions here (and expect an answer lol)? Not sure the protocol of the chat

Seth

yep go for it.

Doesn't always mean someone can/will answer it, but it is always worth a try.

bcsteeve

thanks.

Danatela

@NathanOsman what exactly the reason you prefer git?

bcsteeve

I have a service (plex) that has a user (plex) and group (plex). I have media that is owned by my own user (me) and group (family). The client can access but can't delete media (permission error). I added user "plex" to group "family" but it didn't help. Files are all 775. If I change to 777 it works. If I change file ownership to "plex" then it works of course.

question: why didn't adding user"plex" to group "family" resolve the problem?

my thinking is that permission have group access as wide open (7) and plex is part of the group the files belong to.

Nathan Osman

@Danatela It more closely fits the ideal developer workflow.

Braiam

02:48

@Danatela what is exactly the reason you don't prefer git?

bare the learning curve it can pose for someones

@bcsteeve because you didn't restart your system

Danatela

@Braiam I know SVN and Mercurial; I thought Git is just Mercurial clone

Nathan Osman

Certainly not. Git is absolutely nothing like Mercurial.

Braiam

@Danatela if Linus hears you he would kill you.... the nearest thing to git is BitKeeper which he took more of the concept and mercurial predates git several days youtube.com/watch?v=4XpnKHJAok8

Danatela

haha I just heard he doesn't like VCS

or CVS

crasic

Its nice to be able to make a bunch of branches to mess around and not have to deal with pruning the repo

I think the biggest takeaway from his talk is that it increases colaboration because it allows for non-judgemental experimentation

and can make commits to large OSS projects more democratic

@raaz I need your help

karel

06:10

@Danatela Hello. Please take a look at this answer about config settings.

Danatela

@karel are you trying to answer my last question or replying to some of my answers? I can't figure it out %)

karel

@Danatela It's the Wikipedia quote in your suggested configure tag wiki edit. I don't think that it's sufficiently specific to Ubuntu.

Danatela

ah that... I just thought it was improperly used so added the explanation

BTW I thought configure behavior shouldn't be specific for any OS

karel

06:28

@karel There are .conf files, config files, rc files, configuration files used for compiling applications, etc. and the Wikipedia quote says "configuration" and stops there, which might result in a user searching for a file named "configuration" which does not exist.

Danatela

A Configure script is an executable script designed to aid in developing a program to be run on a wide number of different computers. It matches the libraries on the user's computer, with those required by the program, just before compiling it from its source code.

As a common practice, all configure scripts are named "configure". Usually, configure scripts are written for the Bourne shell, but they may be written for execution in any desired shell.

just don't see where is "configuration"

karel

@Danatela That's the tag. Sorry, I meant named "configure". As a common practice, all scripts are named "configure". This sentence should be removed or else expanded to prevent misleading the user.

What's the difference between these two?

remote means the files are on a server

local means the files are on the system you have aptana installed

Avinash Raj

then i want local. Now, i'm learning it.

Rinzwind

ah -> stackoverflow.com/a/5889845/2920227

"You could use Aptana Studio 3 Remote view to create a new empty project, then create a FTP connection to your local server and download all the files. To enable auto-upload on local changes, in Project Explorer or App Explorer in context menu select Deploy/Deployment Settings, then check "Automatically sync my changes with the remote site".

If you're working on the same machine as your local server, you could just use the server project location directly in Aptana Studio. To accomplish that, use Project Explorer to find the project location on Local Filesystem. Then "Promote To Project"."

so you need the last sentence ;-)

Q: Questions including "Please help me"

@ThatBrazilianGuy sudo apt-get install apt-mirror?

That Brazilian Guy

@Braiam Ooops, I'm running a Live CD and hadn't activated any repos.

And apt-mirror is on "universe", that repo is not enabled by default

Braiam

Why do I need to install Eclipse? What if I don't like eclipse? What if I don't have Java installed? Why too many screenshots? — Braiam 14 secs ago

Avinash Raj

sudo add-apt-repository universe

That Brazilian Guy

No, we have a local mirror clone ;)

I'll manually edit sources.list

Thanks for the new command anyway :)

Daaaamn, we have a local mirror for 12.04, not for 14.04 :(

Lucio

@ThatBrazilianGuy do you use PO.SO?

That Brazilian Guy

@Lucio No. What's that?

Lucio

That Brazilian Guy

Oh. I tried to, but my coding knowledge is quite limited, so my questions are fairly basic.

In fact, I don't even go to SO because they like to ~~skin you alive~~ downvote and VTC a lot on there.

Lucio

lol

but you could participate doing other things

editing, flaging, chating with other users...

and then you will find questions that may answer and such

Braiam

another delete vote askubuntu.com/q/9854/169736 @AvinashRaj?

Is this opinion based askubuntu.com/questions/466418/… ?

Lucio

@Braiam I can change that face, you only need to give me a bounty of 10k :)

I was reading that. But the body of the question explain a bit more than title and it may be a technically answered question

Venki

Ok fine

That Brazilian Guy

@Lucio Yeah, I want (and need to) to improve my dev skills, so I plan to do that

(but I keep procrastinating a lot) :(
