ITT: People angry about Cabal's decision to black out the site for a few hours in protest of something that would black out the site FFOOORRREEEVVVEEERRR!!!
Tuesday, 17-Jan-12 03:46:42 UTC from web-
@trixiethewonderful I did NOT make a decision. Not without purpletinker's say so will I black out the site. #listen #payattention
-
@cabal Allow me to correct myself then, if this happens you have my full support in it.
-
@abigpony Wrong, the company hosting us is US based, but the datacenter is in germany. Our domain in in the US though, and subject to Law.

@pumpkinhill It's the interwebs. People can easily get impassioned by trivial conversations and escalate the situation.
-
@pumpkinhill What we understand: This is bad. What we don't understand fully: EXACTLY how much it will affect us. Say what you want, but you probably haven't lived with censored internet. Most of us don't know what its like! We need to know exactly how bad it will be, so we will just make just a bit more effort, because unless the US gets 50 more representatives against this stuff, it will pass (PIPA) in the senate. We need to motivate the people making the decisions just a bit towards what the people want, instead of what the businesses want
-
@the20percent So what do you wish me to do past those emails and whatnot that I've already done? I understand full well how inconvenient and terrible the outcome will be, but my voice can only do so much past what I've already done. Having no internet access at all for a week was more than annoying enough, but I managed. That's not the point though and the thing is that I understand how inconvenienced it would be and how privileged we are right now to have it.

@cabal You do realize, don't you, that the whole idea is to get people to come top the site and not drive them away?
-
@colfax That went away during the whole RP debacle. I would have dismantled this website if purpletinker didn't offer to fianance it. Plus, where would our social bronies go? Flankbook died.
-
-
@tinwhistle No. Cabal's wants to stop SOPA by becoming it.
-
@forestrain Do you know how many people are just going to go to purpletinker and have her make cabal put the site back up?
-
@derps Pretty sure Cabal's original post said he was going to clear it with her in the first place.
-
@forestrain Yeah, but hypothetically speaking.
-
-
@cabal I know this is off-topic, but any word on that whole badge design contest?

-
@forestrain Ah right. Give me tomorrow to eval. I gotta wake up really early to go to my new job tomorrow.
-
@cabal No worries. I didn't see a ton of entries, but I figured I'd ask, you know, so I can win. ^.^ Good luck at your new job, mate.

The Wildfire S seems to take longer to charge than my Desire Z, for some reason. No idea why however. :S !androidbronies !techponies
-
An application I'm trying to install won't install due to "Insufficient storage space" there's a Micro SD card with 20GB free plugged into it :/ (using my mum's htc Wildfire S) !techponies !androidbronies
-
@ceruleanspark Hmmm...true :/ Still, I know for a fact that some (but not all) applications can be moved to a Micro SD card after being installed. Did it on my Desire Z to make space for apps that could only use the internal memory.
-
@leonkfox The apps need to be flagged for that by the dev.
-
@ceruleanspark Makes sense. Well, I'll have to move a few over to free space for this application I'm trying to install.

@nerthos I'd rather he didn't do horrible things to any dead animals.

@moonprincess But still preferable to doing horrible things to live animals.

@moonprincess Well, I can't help you with that.

That moment when you realize your previous OS had encrypted your home folder and you didn't back it up before reinstalling. ;_; !techponies

!techponies God damn it, Google, what the hell are you doing? Why are all of your redesigns so terrible?

Anypony out there with a BlackBerry know of a decent StatusNet client for the OS? (That works on a Curve 8520 specifically) gonna be without my htc Desire Z for a week or so, and I would rather not have to use its clunky murdock web browser just to post to RDN when I'm out and about. !techponies
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 18:26:57 UTC from web -
Just called htc about the fault I've been having when taking my phone (Desire Z) out of standby mode, it'll be collected between 1-5pm tomorrow :) !androidbronies !techponies
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 15:44:42 UTC from web -
Managed to get my Desire Z's screen to turn on...at last. I daren't turn it off again though. When I get home tomorrow I'm calling htc to get it repaired like I said. Still, I don't miss having to use that BlackBerry, especially when posting to RDN on that clunky apples web browser. !techponies
-
Here's me thinking I'd escaped this phone for good, I'm back to using the BlackBerry Curve 8520 as my primary smart phone (using it to type this post as I don't know of any StatusNet clients for BlackBerries) as much as I hate this phone for how slow its internet speeds are (2G/Edge) the small as all hell keyboard among other things, my htc Desire Z no longer seems to want to work, pressing the standby button and the screen no longer seems to want to turn on 9/10 times) got to send it back to htc when I can to get it fixed...again. Then I think I'm going to sell it and get a better phone. Third time lucky, I hope... !techponies

Tweeting from my cousin's Samsung Galaxy SII...I am so jealous of this phone that i's unreal x.x I wish I hadn't been so fixated with having a physical keyboard on my phone when I changed from my BlackBerry Curve 8520. This phone is hella easy to type on with just a touch screen, has a far superior design than my htc Desire Z and it runs a LOT smoother. So yeah, jealousy levels rising... !androidbronies !techponies
-
Think I'll have to send my phone back to htc :/ This will be the second time I've done this, and fallen back on my old BlackBerry Curve 8520. !androidbronies !techponies

I wonder if I can bring back #ThingsMyMumSaysAboutPony

ARGH FGSFDS. Sometimes I really hate Espernet/Mibbit. Like, for the past 2 hours now, nothing but Ping Timeouts and Net Splits left and right. U2K Level: 75%.

9/10 times when I try to get my htc Desire Z out of standby I only get the buttons to light up on my phone. Problem after problem with this phone.. (And factory resetting didn't help at all, already tried it) !androidbronies !techponies
Sunday, 08-Jan-12 23:35:26 UTC from web -
Oh dear lord, when my phone shakes one irritating habit (touch screen locking up) the damn thing finds itself another one to use to get on my nerves, something awful I might add. Basically, I hit the power button to turn it on/get it out of standby, and the capactive buttons underneath the screen light up...but sweet candy coated bugger all appears on screen, and it can go on for several minutes at a time. Are these constant issues all Android related, or is it just me being unlucky with this htc Desire Z? -_- !techponies !androidbronies

!techponies Thinking of picking up a small (60-80GB) SSD to run a couple games off of. That, combined with the reasonable amount of storage space on my two remaining slooooooooow HDDs should tide me over until I can afford something with a little more breathing room. || Never had an SSD before, and it looks like my usual hard drive tactic of "get a WD/Seagate" isn't going to work very well. Anypony have any recommendations, or advice on what to look for? || Do keep in mind that I'm a starving college student, so budget is a big issue; also, I'm Canadian, so I'd prefer something from NCIX or DirectCanada; newegg.ca and tigerdirect.ca are also acceptable.

@ponydude2143 what doesn't ?
-
@ponydude2143 And nopony got mad! Astra does stuff like that from time to time, and she's more or less universally liked.

@ponydude2143 Report them to me next time. I'll start handing out rulings.

My RAM is going to be the very last component to arrive for my new computron... It had to be something absolutely vital, didn't it? #firstworldproblems !techponies

My new 32gb Micro SD card arrived yesterday (old one fell out of my phone after said phone fell off my desk, and due to their incredibly small size finding it has been nothing short of impossible) and I've been working on rebuilding my music, video etc libraries, starting with all the FiM episodes. I'm downloading them via TubeMate (Unofficial YouTube Downloader app for Android, need to download it from the browser) and it's taking quite some time. I would just torrent them all, but I torrented them all in good quality and they lagged on my phone big time, downloading them through TubeMate to ensure that doesn't happen, even if it does take longer. !techponies !androidbronies

So... Yeah. New monitor. It'd be on a new computer, except I haven't received my RAM or wireless card yet. Attached to my netbook? Well. . . Yeah. That's my netbook down there on the bottom. !techponies http://2tu.us/3n8s

@eaglehooves heh My new desktop will be using my dead laptop's HDD (along with a new SSD for the OS).
-
@scribus My roommate has Ubuntu on a SSD. Worked like a dream till Dropbox burned out a sector.
-
@eaglehooves Yikes. >.< Actually, now that I think about it, my netbook is an 8 GB SSD, it's been groovy all along. Not a lot of Dropbox experience, though. . .
