  1. @autumnspirit: well done. Wish I were so lucky (and awake) a couple weeks ago when I gave my iTouch 4 scratches in a single fumble... 2:30 AM Dec 15th from Gwibber in reply to autumnspirit
  2. @autumnspirit the phrase "indie convenience" just makes me think of someone boasting "I was into convenience _before_ it was convenient!" 11:37 PM Dec 7th from Gwibber in reply to autumnspirit
  3. My iTouch has magically lost the ability to show GRiS' landscape interface - it still works for other apps. Nothing has changed in months! 11:17 PM Dec 7th from Identica
  4. The new google homepage is odd. It feels like a competition now, you have to try and never reveal the chrome. So much for simplification... 11:57 PM Dec 6th from Identica
  5. @autumnspirit yeah. Gwibber posts to both identica and twitter, and then identica's "push to twitter" kicked in after a ridiculous delay 2:55 AM Nov 26th from web in reply to autumnspirit
  6. Just replaced 100+ lines of bash/expect/telnet bollocks with 20 lines of python. Yay termlib! (Also: the damn script actually works now ;)) 12:05 AM Nov 25th from Gwibber
  7. #gwibber on linux is a surprisingly good social media app - I like it more than any of the mac twitter apps I tried... 1:26 PM Nov 24th from Identica
  8. somehow, the display delay of pop-down terminals (guake etc) seems directly related to how *wide* (not tall) they are. maybe compiz related? 12:04 AM Nov 23rd from Gwibber
  9. So apparently powermates are set to "flash the bright LED like you're at a sodding rave" when the computer is off. Who would EVER want this? 11:57 PM Nov 21st from Gwibber
  10. @mat_kelcey: excellent :D Consider it payback for originally teaching me the alt-dot trick ;) 6:52 PM Nov 20th from Gwibber in reply to mat_kelcey
  11. Downgraded kernel, broken (now fixed) graphics driver, and suddenly no sound. Yep, definitely in linux-towne. And nope, I don't miss the mac 6:52 AM Nov 13th from Identica
  12. It's always a little surprising when you type "sudo shutdown -h now" into the wrong terminal window :s 1:05 PM Nov 4th from Identica
  13. So, how long can these hash tags be? Here goes: #googlewavemarkasunreadshouldbeablipwiseoperation. Who's with me? 11:11 PM Oct 30th from Identica
  14. @MikeJF looks like they're mirroring the current files as we speak. alternate-amd64 just appeared... 4:26 PM Oct 30th from web in reply to MikeJF
  15. @MikeJF yeah they still do. Sorry, spoke to soon without checking the filenames ;) 3:20 AM Oct 30th from web in reply to MikeJF
  16. Good: my ISP has karmic available from the freezone (doesn't affect quota). Bad: Server's so overloaded I can't even get a file listing 11:44 PM Oct 29th from Identica
  17. @Paul_Bone its a user-focused distro, innit? Is the server version any slimmer? 11:59 PM Oct 27th from web in reply to Paul_Bone
  18. @tomayac cool, that'd be great. You might also need a github account if you are working on the code. 11:58 PM Oct 27th from web in reply to tomayac
  19. @tomayac I'd like that, but I'm afraid I've pretty much ceased GRiS development. I'm sick of apple, and heading on to more open pastures. 2:00 AM Oct 26th from web in reply to tomayac
  20. @autumnspirit mm, tried that. It's using a UUID rather than /dev/* - which should Just Work as far as I can tell :/ 11:48 PM Oct 23rd from Adium in reply to autumnspirit
