Mr ADHD
Usually works on 5 different branches at the same time, while simultaneously watching Youtube videos, updating Facebook and reading a book. Tries to get everything off his desk as soon as possible so he can work on something else. Constantly annoys his bosses and coworkers by claiming he's done with some task when he's actually not. Although competent, he produces most of the bugs, because of his lack of concentration and his apparent inability to actually test his code.

RE: Google closing Yet Another Service - GoogleCode
Right; and it should be impossible for me to use Photoshop without knowing exactly how it translates color between CMYK and RGB.
You seem to be missing the point: The DAG in DVCS is not an implementation detail, but the entire concept! So the equivalent would be trying to use Photoshop without understanding the concept of layers.

RE: Google closing Yet Another Service - GoogleCode
Hell, Go moved away from Google Code because it was so bad.
And the .NET team didn't want to use CodePlex. There's no way around Github these days.

RE: The Official Good Ideas Thread™
I don't know who came up with the idea of prefixing thropics with a relevant Unicode character, but I'm going to say it's a good idea.
:hand:
I wasn't sure whether you all would find it amusing or annoying, so I didn't exaggerate and only prefixed the titles of the most active topics. Glad to hear I'm not the only one who likes the idea.
I have to ask though, why this thropic is currently prefixed with
💁
(helpdesk).
Why not
💡
(electric light bulb)?
Because I wanted to use mostly WTFy* unicode characters. (Those which make you wonder about the drug habits of the members of the Unicode committee.)
* WTF as in "Why the fuck does this character even exist?"

RE: In which blakey doesn't ask for help with reducing notifications
Maybe your request deserves a serious reply, so here's one.
First of all, I'm only constantly making fun of you because your style of writing and your "arguments", which would have made Schopenhauer proud, don't deserve being taken seriously most of the time.
Secondly, if you were willing to stick to the topic—at least in some threads/categories—and actually listen to other people's arguments instead of throwing a tantrum, I would consider doing the same and try to stay on topic. Even though it'd be against the nature of this forum, I would be willing to have a civilized Discourse™ with you from time to time, as
GodJeff intended. But that would require at least some good will on your part. -

But
theirthey're full of wisdom.Moron.Dammit. Now that you corrected your grammar, your post is only half as funny as it was before.

RE: In which blakey doesn't ask for help with reducing notifications
How about people just not post tedious unfunny shit at all?
So… you're going to stop posting stupid, supposedly funny rants?

RE: How far do you have to go to "Support Linux"?
As an option, no.
As the only option, depends on what the program is, but for most I'd assume (as you have) no.

RE: How far do you have to go to "Support Linux"?
So… you think it's okay to tell users that they have to compile your program themselves?

RE: How far do you have to go to "Support Linux"?
Would it be "bad" to package your dependencies with you, rather than rely on them being installed already?
Not if you install your Software in
/opt
. Make a Debian package and a RPM package that does exactly that. -
RE: Enlightened
I love it when people show up to defend their WTFs! Now, if we could just get yellow boxing glove guy back.
I'm starting to get the feeling that @boomzilla led @Carsten_Haitzler here for his own amusement.
-
RE: Enlightened
Did @Carsten_Haitzler address this stuff?
He did:
we indirect to a table that is managed in order to get actual object pointers. the "pointer" exposed to apps is now an ID stuffed into a pointer for API/ABI compatibility.

RE: Enlightened
i never said "i never saw it"
But you said:
that does not appear anywhere inside efl at all.
(HTFY)
Which is pretty much the same. Intentionally misleading statements and lies are pretty much the same thing to me. Can we agree on the term "PR talk"?
-
RE: Enlightened
my response was based on it not being there (anymore) (when i looked). i have been pretty clear about it that it shouldn't be there and i fixed it. i searched the codebase - i didn't do an exhaustive search through all history and using different strings than quoted in the OP.
I think you should stop trying to defend what you wrote in your first post. You lied to us regarding having never seen such an error message to make your project look better. Period.

RE: The right to fork makes open source software a breeding ground for innovation!?
Pandering, ad hominem. Go back to high school debate club. Or politics. Somewhere else with a really low level of discourse.
HTFY.

RE: The right to fork makes open source software a breeding ground for innovation!?
Look, they added a feature to enable you to do this thing you very very rarely ever do really easily! WOW!
…in an innovative way, which is why it was originally mentioned.
-
RE: The right to fork makes open source software a breeding ground for innovation!?
The real point is, if you update a widely-used library
TIL that @blakeyrat doesn't know the difference between libraries and kernels.
-
RE: The right to fork makes open source software a breeding ground for innovation!?
So restarting a single service is equivalent to rebooting the whole machine. At least now I know why every new version of windows is innovative because it can boot faster !
Shhhh! Stop arguing against his straw man counter-argument. He'll continue ranting about how restarting services makes live kernel patching insecure otherwise.

He jerks off with his knee? Weird…
Thanks. Now I'll have to drink a few bottles of Scotch to get that image out of my head.

RE: The right to fork makes open source software a breeding ground for innovation!?
They won't because it can't be done without a radical redesign of the OS kernel. (For example, to a BeOS-style microkernel where everything in the OS including stuff like networking, storage, etc is a rebootable "service". But even then, updating a service was functionally identical to a reboot in many, many cases.)
Wrong. If you had read the article I linked above, you would have known you're wrong, so I'm going to link it again: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ksplice
Feel free to ignore it again and continue writing horseshit, though.
-
RE: The right to fork makes open source software a breeding ground for innovation!?
I can't come up with anything that could be considered innovative, as in, a new idea.
Doesn't matter anyway, because recognizing innovations would require imagination, and @blakeyrat has none.
Exhibit A:
I highly doubt it will work.

RE: Enlightened
Windows calls it "List"
Ah, ok. Well, they've removed that, but I never liked that view anyway, so I don't care.
If you ask me, that "OMFG!!!! THEY'RE KILLING NAUTILUS!!!" flamewar was a huge fuss about nothing.
-
RE: Enlightened
Compact view.
What was that again?
Twin panel mode.
Open nautilus. Super+→ Open nautilus. Super+← Alternatively, use tabs.
CtrlL to switch between breadcrumbs and location input was off by default IIRC.
Nope, still works. I do that all the time.

RE: Enlightened
They removed half the features I was using!
Care to elaborate?
No. I always hated Gnome.
Out of curiosity (and because I want to mock it): Which DE do you use?
-
RE: Enlightened
DO NOT FUCKING WANT.
I knew the first comment would be about GNOME 3. Well, I actually like it. Deal with it.

RE: Enlightened
Xubuntu and Lubuntu were about as nice as Ubuntu can get, though. I liked the second one, since it was the only system outside of WinXP that ran on a netbook without a hitch.
Xfce is pretty much dead, unfortunately. Haven't used it since I sold my old (read: ancient) PC.
The problem is: I'm a lazy bastard, like @Onyx. I want PPAs and pre-packaged third-party software, so Ubuntu seems like the only sane choice. Unfortunately, Ubuntu GNOME is a clusterfuck that crashes all the time, because of Ubuntu-specific patches and hacks and the fact that they packaged software from 3 different GNOME versions.
-
RE: Enlightened
Well, that's what all the one-additional-letter spins are for (Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu).
Used all of them, especially Kubuntu was buggy as hell for years. And a lot of those bugs were Ubuntu-specific. Also, have you ever tried to use Ubuntu GNOME?
-
RE: Enlightened
To be fair, using any other DE than Unity on Ubuntu is a royal PITA regardless of the particular DE.
