kalina

I even stick up for you guys in other chat rooms

you're so lucky to have me

Dan Hulme

@kalina in what way?

kalina

@DanHulme no drama, you'll upset me if you join and start causing trouble and you don't want to upset me.

http://android.stackexchange.com/a/63996/53297 , somebody throw me a bone here, as i get shot down like a fool for creating a conical answer. Also the puke that shot me down, "has an app" , but on my pre 4.2 device that function (which i was going to cover tomorrw with screenshots) already has that function. ARGGG i want to hop inot his chat room and assault him with various unkindsness

Dan Hulme

I saw he came in earlier

and then didn't say anything

and is still here, still not saying anything

kalina

*shrug*

it's already being handled

Aadi Droid

Hey any of you heading to Mobile World COngress ?

Dan Hulme

11:14

not I

Wandang

@kalina is here too

omg

kalina

I am omnipresent

@Wandang just because I don't chat in the bridge atm doesn't mean I'm not around ;)

Wandang

@kalina you are always in my mind ;)

@highrepusers I've submitted an edit, cough, splutter

RossC

12:32

2k rep to approve edits? owch!

So my work have blocked Facebook, which I use to log in here... Is there any work around I can use to still access this site?

Once I log out it will clear all IE data, and I'll be permanently logged out

Or where could I ask this question?

Dan Hulme

@RossC maybe superuser or webapps; not sure which

I'd say metaso, but the question's not really specific to Stack Exchange sites

RossC

Thanks! I'm trying to see if I can just have a S.E. profile and not have to use Facebook

I can't log in to those sites :| it's a bit of a catch 22

Dan Hulme

@RossC you can, but you might need to create a new profile; I don't think there's a way to change the openid provider for an existing account

RossC

Ah Ok, that's a bit of a pity, but sure might just do that

Dan Hulme

12:48

ah no, hold on

go to your user profile, and click "my logins" in the top-right

RossC

Ok, cool. I'm there, there's a 'google' option that I could use, but the botton doesn't work. My office uses IE8... :( I'll see waht I can do

Izzy

@bmdixon 3 times = Beatles song, if I remember correctly :) Though: Hi@All :D

RossC

:) brilliant @DanHulme thanks so much

Izzy

@kalina If someone creates conical answers, (s)he deserves being shot!

@Wandang OMG... Is this the Android chatromm, or Lyrics? #D

@RossC I created an SE account for that. Have no FB, and SE is less likely to be blocked (I'm also sitting behind a FW)

RossC

Yeah that makes WAY more sense, but I just have the FB one

1 hour later…

Izzy

14:12

@RossC So what's the problem creating the SE one, and then linking it?

RossC

@Izzy yeah that's the main issue, BUT I've got google logged in now so that'll be ok termporarily!

Izzy

@RossC If it's fine with you, why not. I intentionally split things up (Google already knows more than enough on me :)

RossC

14:33

Yeah I hear that!

Thanks for that comment @Izzy instant accept from the OP! He's getting to grips with is Note 3 by the looks of it

Lovely device

Seems like the same question again:

Q: Galaxy Note 3 - Is there a way to add more apps to use when drawing a 'Pen Window'?

Is there a way to add more applications in the list that appears when you press the button on the S-Pen and select "Pen Window" to draw a floating application? It would be really nice if you could open a floating twitter or Facebook application.

"touchwiz" is the problem I'd wager, again!

Dan Hulme

14:49

@RossC I'm not sure I'd say that

given that touchwiz is how the whole thing works anyway

RossC

I've given a slightly wordier answer than "damn touchwiz"

Izzy

15:01

@RossC NP, and agreed. Followed by (my) +1 :)

RossC

:) thanks!

RossC

15:18

That auto correct one is melting my head. Google Keyboard annoys me something fierce these days

Dan Hulme

it's a good job someone's writing a better one, then :-)

RossC

SwiftKey is the first app I ever paid for. And it was worth it

Dan Hulme

pfft

Swiftkey is still just another keyboard

we need something fundamentally better

RossC

I agree entirely, but at the moment it is like the mouse: we need somthing better, but nothing has been better

just alternatives that aren't as intuative. I miss the old days when you could write a text from inside your pocket without looking at the phone

Dan Hulme

Don't say that to me: I don't use a mouse

I have a FingerWorks multitouch keyboard, and a trackball

and I'll give you something better than a soft-keyboard as soon as I have it ready :-)

RossC

15:42

:) sounds good to me! I'd be delighted to see something newer and more efficient!

RossC

16:03

man the rep requirements are huge on some things here, tried 'review' there, not much can be done < 2k :|

Busy day at work, just catching up now. That answer android.stackexchange.com/a/63996/156 would be massively improved by deleting everything before "How to Set Update methods for the Play Store" which is when the info that's actually useful to the OP starts

Dan Hulme

@GAThrawn the author is in the room if you want to bring that to their attention

Izzy

@RossC You've seen todays update, yes? Now Import/Export works (you can even import from the "Original's Exports", without site-specifics. But before doing it the other way around, some manual cleanup (removing the §§§ lines for site-specifics) is required)

RossC

17:51

I haven't! I'll read up now on the bus! Thanks

1 hour later…
