worse :D I just got a shutdown for no reason :X

Octavian Damiean

no seriously that is the first time I've ever seen such a flag review message appear

as far as I know only mods are supposed to get those

Rinzwind

Takkat

@OctavianDamiean: where would that appear if we had one? Never seen this...

Rinzwind

well I was serious too :( something's fishy with my Ubuntu :(

Octavian Damiean

@Takkat you know the orange thingy that appears on top of your avatar displaying the mention count?

it looks pretty much like that one but its blue and on the left side of your avatar

Takkat

19:03

omg I haven't got an orange thingy :S. The Stack Exchange dropdown on the left?

Octavian Damiean

@Takkat oh no here in the chat I mean

Takkat

as I say :D

guess had a too long work marathon today

Octavian Damiean

guys make sure to checkout the Ask Mark session tomorrow!

I'll grab some sleep

Takkat

nice dreams @OctavianDamiean

I always dream bad when I go to sleep early

James Gifford

@OctavianDamiean Night!

TheX

19:30

@JamesGifford hi

James Gifford

@TheX Hey.

TheX

@JamesGifford whats up?

James Gifford

@TheX Nothing really. You?

TheX

@JamesGifford nm... do you know how to mac apps for IOS?

James Gifford

@TheX Nope.

I don't do Mac or iOS dev, lacking a Mac. ;)

TheX

19:32

hmmm... that is my new task... for work I guess

but they won't give me an IOS device to test with... morons...

James Gifford

That's dumb.

TheX

idiotic...

James Gifford

Did they get you the $100/year iOS dev membership?

TheX

hell no

I guess they want miracles...

and even if they did... I would still need a Mac, for the software...

now that I think about it...

James Gifford

Wow. Convince them to get you this O'reilly media book. I've heard good things - oreilly.com/catalog/0636920010258

Wait.

you don't even have a mac?!

TheX

19:35

Nope

James Gifford

you can't do iOS dev without a Mac.

TheX

100% PC here

I know, they are stupid

James Gifford

you can try and do titanium, but that's not something that Apple likes. :P

appcelerator.com

TheX

hmm

James Gifford

gotta go. might be back later tonight. need to finish this school paper. :L

TheX

19:39

@JamesGifford you still have to have a mac, and pay the 100 dollars

Greg

Is it possible to disable the network connections indicator menu appearing on F10?

I want to use F10 for my programming (step over)

James Gifford

20:09

@TheX Ah. Didn't know that. :(

@Greg remap F10 to something else. Like F15. That way, you don't technically have a F10 key, but you do.

I think that'll work.

Greg

@JamesGifford I don't understand :\

James Gifford

@Greg I have my Caps lock key (the physical one) remapped using a custom .Xmodmap to esc.

What I'm suggesting is have your physical F10 key be remapped to F15 (or something like that), and then have your program listen for F15 (or whatever you remap it to)

Does that make any sense?

Greg

@JamesGifford ah, yes... if all programs can be remapped. My IDEs can listen to F15, but Chromium can't be remapped to listen to F15 (at least I don't think so)

I'm using Chromium for debugging JavaScript

James Gifford

@Greg Ah. In that case, I don't know how to help you. :(

Greg

hmm, there's no way to stop unity eating up my F10 key?

James Gifford

20:18

Try in ccsm

Rinzwind

@Greg ccsm UbuntuUnityPlugin KeyToOpenFirstPanel = F10

Guess I was too late :P

TheX

20:54

@RolandTaylor are you there?

Roland Taylor

TheX

hey need to talk to you on IM

Roland Taylor

switching tab groups from time to time

TheX

if you are available

I need to vent to someone

Roland Taylor

cool

TheX

20:57

but your not online

Roland Taylor

I am now XD

Greg

@Rinzwind ah thanks, sorry I went out

Greg

21:36

ah crap I totally messed up unity playing with the effects :\

TheX

time to reset back to the defaults @Greg

Greg

@TheX how do I do that?

TheX

launch the compiz editor, and press the button that says default??

James Gifford

another way to do it is to run compiz --reset

TheX

yeah that would probably be the easier way

Greg

21:41

wow I messed that up badly :D

I think its back to normal now

trampster

Oops! Your question couldn't be submitted because:

Sorry, we can't accept this question.

James Gifford

@trampster Again. . . .

Time to send it into the SE guys again.

@trampster Dump your cache.

that might let you ask your question.

MechanisM

22:10

hi. how to enable keyboard indicator in gnome3, gnome-shell panel?

George Edison

22:25

@MechanisM I'm not sure if Gnome3 supports indicators...

MechanisM

It does. I've seen some tutorial that needed some js files for ibus and add them to panel.js but forgot where I'd found it.

George Edison

Oh, well I really have no idea - I've never used Gnome3.

(Which reminds me... time to upgrade my Fedora VM soon.)

MechanisM

how it's showing internet/sound/bluetooth indicators then?

@GeorgeEdison seems like you're moderator. maybe you'll let me know which programming language used to program this chat? it's so reminds me speeqe.com chats

which is django/python

George Edison

@MechanisM Well first of all... I'm not really a moderator here.

I'm a moderator over at StackApps.

I can tell you what was used to program this chat though.

MechanisM

I've just seen in source that in for u setupe is_moderator: true hehe

ohh sorry for my perfect english

so shoot. I'm really wanna know.

it's via xmpp?

George Edison

22:32

According to the dev. team, ASP.Net MVC 3 running on IIS 7.5.

On the client side, we have jQuery 1.4.4.

MechanisM

ohhh..

but you should agree that this chat looks like rewritten for example: mechanism.speeqe.com

haltman

Hi everybody!

MechanisM

hello

haltman

@MechanisM ciao :-)

MechanisM

haltman

22:45

there is a way to "repair" .xsession-errors?

1 hour later…

James Gifford

23:47

PSA: If you get the following error:

"Oops! Your question couldn't be submitted because:

Then email the question to the SE team here - [email protected]
