@cajunbrony23 Wow, what peculiar timing o,o
-
@cajunbrony23 Happy to hear that.
-
@cajunbrony23 Welcome back, feeling better?
-
Ugh, I really ought to stop listening to all this sad music. I mean, The Best Pessimist is beautiful, but doesn't exactly convey happiness =/

@sliverfeather #hugs Thank you x.x
-
@sliverfeather Ah, I see. Mind me hugging you? I could use one :x
-
Dear Buildbot: I wasted way too much time configuring you, and you are completely useless, but you're cool anyway and you can waste the very low amount of CPU cycles you use. I have more than enough of those anyway.
-
@sliverfeather I'm not sure what you're trying to say there, sorry.
-
@sliverfeather People who say anything is "for the weak" is just being ridiculous. Everyone has other needs (and some needs are universal) and you can't say that certain needs are "weaker" than others. That's just as ridiculous as saying black people are dumber than white people (yes, I purposely grabbed something absolutely ridiculous, no, I'm not racist).

Oh my god I love my music collection <3

@sliverfeather I don't need 3 days for that, 18 hours seem to be more than enough for me.

Ugh, I'm seriously starting to get annoyed with Flash getting an exclusive lock on my audio system, causing my music player to malfunction... Note to self: don't mess around with your audio system, you'll break the thing you care most about: music.

@derpyshy Too late, just did so, though I guess I'll go and give her another one.
-
@flaredancer Ouch, that's far away... I'm only ~100km away from my partner, but currently less than 1 meter.
-
@flaredancer Oh, you're his partner? You got lucky, he seems like a great guy from the (relatively little) amount I've talked to him.
-
I congratulate my little brother in being even better at breaking Windows than me. He just had his second BSoD in 10 minutes after reinstalling Windows 7 only 3 days ago.

@hakupony Bye o,o
-
Dear Javascript: If I ask you if a variable is defined, it is fine to just define it. You don't have to crash and say it's undefined when that's exactly what I'm asking you...

@lunacymambo True, @greydragon412 (am I getting the number right for once?) made them.
-
Quick, name a pony episode to watch over lunch o,o
-
@lunacymambo #hugs :(
-
@abigpony Yeah, I'm clearly just confusing you more than I'm explaining to you, because that same behaviour is normal behaviour in most Linux desktop environments as well. Just try it yourself, yeah, will be better ;P
-
@lunacymambo Hey, wait, what?
-
@abigpony It may seem this way, but it is actually insanely convenient. For powerusers, this means that instead of having to type "C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Firefox\Firefox.exe" simply typing "firefox" is enough to start Firefox. This also means that it is a lot easier for your system to take care of all your software. At any rate, there is absolutely no reason to be messing around in the installation directory anyway, as the configuration settings aren't saved there, only the binary files (would be .exe on Windows, on Linux they don't have any extension). It should technically be possible to change this behaviour if you must really need to, though that's something for advanced users and, believe me, you don't want to do that. It is different from what you're used to with Windows, yes, but definitely not a bad system. If you even become power-user enough to mess around there, you'll be happy with it. Also, Ubuntu can be uninstalled in Add/Remove software under Windows with only 1 click.

@abigpony Your home directory is comparable to "My Documents" under Windows. You just put all your stuff there. If programs require additional setup, they generally ask it during the first time they are run. The most people use setup wizards for nowadays are to configure software installation location, which you simply don't do under Linux. All your software is installed in a central directory, and configuration settings, if you even need to access those (normally you don't, as you have "Settings" options in all software the average user uses) are saved in a hidden folder in your home directory (don't worry, most file managers will easily let you toggle showing hidden files or not). At any rate, I have a feeling I'm getting way too technical here and am confusing you more than teaching you, but that is a risk of knowing a lot about a certain object. At any rate, the best way is to just try it out yourself, you'll probably find out what I mean (oh, and notification systems, those rock)

@pony I currently still dual-boot, mostly when my owner wants to game, but with Steam coming to Linux this very year I won't have to keep doing that for long. Besides that, Linux office suites like LibreOffice are already almost completely compatible with Microsoft Office (the biggest issue being PowerPoint) and the web uses more and more open standards (like HTML5, for example).
