@binary I think they're kind of pointless because of !techponies . Someone was talking about how they should be separate because they're slightly more focused, but until people start actually sourcing groups that much I don't see a reason to do that.

I hate it when I see this comment in my code: #magic. --that's always bad news, especially when I need to understand that function for revamping purposes. !techponies

@administrator I first learned HTML by making web pages in Netscape Communicator's web page maker, then dissecting the results in Notepad. That's where I picked up my habit of using capital tags. Technically, in HTML, it doesn't matter whether or not tags are capitalized. XHTML uses lowercase because it's a type of XML. || The reason for using XHTML over HTML is accessibility, especially for mobile devices. A browser running on a PC has resources to spare on interpreting malformed pages, whereas a browser running on a cheap-mangoes cell phone is more likely to choke and die if it hits something it doesn't understand. || I only started brushing up on this stuff last week, and the transition's been surprisingly easy. Though in fairness, all I've done so far is read and take notes (XHTML1.1+CSS2-compliant notes). !techponies

Just wrote up a hack-ish tweak for the Status.Net User class to automatically put new registering users into a group based on its ID number. My PHP skills aren't the hottest, so if anypony would check it / improve it, that'ld be nice. It should be functional as is, though. http://retl.info/extra/pony/RDN/defaultgroupsnippet.zip (Zip contains snippet and example.) !notice !techponies http://is.gd/LUslGX

Hmm. Tried installing StatusNet Desktop in my linux VM. Boy, did it ever not work at all. Times like this, I wish I actually knew what I was doing. !techponies

@starshine O hai, I should have did the !techponies thing for that last dash...

!techponies @puzzlemint Double density disks were 720k (880k if you had an Amiga.) 1.44MB disks had an "HD" logo, and could be identified by their additional square hole opposite the write-protect switch. and I have piles of them.

@puzzlemint I remember bringing those to school full of emulators and roms for NES. Nothing says fun like doing comp work and playing Legend of Zelda at the same time !techponies !vgp

!techponies I remember when I got my first 1.4 MB 3 1/2" disk. That cherries was DOUBLE DENSITY, man. You could fit ten whole hypercard stacks on it and still have room to spare. On that day, I truly was a god among nerds.

@rotation ¯\(°_0)/¯ I honestly don't remember. I think I was just trying to get a grasp on how 3d transformations were done. And then looking at the source again, apparently I made the 3d thing in a different class. In physics class, I made a 2d ascii drawing engine thing, then rendered fractals for the rest of the school year. Didn't forget that. Good times. :3 http://youtu.be/-kyZW4bMQg0 !techponies

@rotation It's been so long since I've really coded anything that I don't remember any interesting storied off the top of my head. However, I do remember recently looking back and stuff and wondering "how the hell did I do that?" Example: apparently I coded a basic 3d engine with javascript. Using notepad and internet explorer. In my physics class. Then completely forgot about it. What the hell? !techponies

@sci !techponies I then read a more recent paper from 2002 that said it could be anywhere between 2 or 75. According to the paper, that means that Linux kernels have roughly 150,000 bugs, and Windows XP about 300,000. #misquotedinformationshouldnotbeusedasfactualevidence

@pride woah what? Just 16? Apparently everything I code is too condensed. I'm pretty sure I've gotten a density of two bugs per line in one function before. !techponies

@ponygeist: nah, at least not for now... i'm still using gnome 2. The two docks are Docky and the panel is wingpanel (from the Elementary OS project) compiled from source !techponies
