... This block's documentation is as follows: "gr_threshold_ff - Please fix my documentation"
00:00
< Eri>
Judging by the name, there's some kind of threshold.
00:00
< Eri>
And it does something
00:00
< Eri>
maybe

"Flash drives have 3 positions. You try one way, it doesn't fit. You flip it over, still doesn't fit. Flip it over again, it fits perfectly."

"4D technology, natch."

The hell? I use my eyes

Seriously. Since so many people complain about this, I've started keeping track

"I was recently visiting one office. Passed by a door marked IT Department, with a schedule posted. Mon-Wed 10:24 - 20:48 Sun Closed"
01:19
<@Alek>
it happens even if you look first. XD
01:19
< Eri>
Super rarerly
01:19
<@Alek>
eh.
01:20
< Eri>
My method is to look at it, then look at the jack, then align the two in such a manner that they'll slide into each other
01:20
< Eri>
It's pretty great
01:20
< Eri>
Anywhoo, gotta bail

< Namegduf>
That sounds time-consuming
01:20
<@Alek>
no, really. "Huh. it's supposed to go in this way, but it doesn't. Lemme try the other way. No? Okay, back. Oh, it works now. WTF?"
01:21
<&McMartin>
One side has a bigger hole, in the jack; the side with the big chunk of plastic on the device goes there.
01:23
< Namegduf>
Yeah, I don't get out of my seat, align my eye to level with the jack, observe it, then move the USB plug over it, examine that, align and plug in.
01:23
< Namegduf>
I just align roughly, guide in onehandedly, if it doesn't work, rotate and do it again.
01:23
< Namegduf>
Two fast attempts beats one slow attempt.
01:24
<&Derakon>
My USB stick's case is not symmetrical on that axis, so I've just learned by feel which way it goes with the USB ports I use.

Damnit, computer isn't seeing my USB HD
03:25
<@Alek>
did you try turning the plug over then over again?
03:26
< maoranma>
Yes, I checked for 4th demensional desyncronization, but it still won't do anything

And it sees it, it just isn't assigning it a letter

< maoranma>
I wonder what linux distro I should dual boot.
23:52
< ShellNinja>
BackTrack!
23:52
< ShellNinja>
Or Debian. :P
23:53
< maoranma>
Just plain Debian or a derived version?
23:53
< ShellNinja>
Plain Debian is what I use.
23:55
<@himi>
Depends how experienced with Linux you are already
23:55
<@himi>
If you're not experienced at all, try Ubuntu
23:55 Kindamoody is now known as Kindamoody[zZz]
23:55
<@himi>
If you're experienced . . . well, you'd already have an opinion
23:55
<@himi>
So just use Debian, 'cause it's the best
23:55
< ShellNinja>
:D
23:56
<@himi>
If you're not a total n00b, Fedora might be a slightly more challenging option than Ubuntu, but Debian these days isn't really that painful, so again just use Debian
23:56
< maoranma>
I've done Ubuntu, but I don't want to deal with unity. We're using Fedora in class, but since I'm going to be using that there, I want something different for my own install
23:56
<@himi>
Debian then
23:57
<@himi>
Though you /can/ use something other than unity on the Ubuntu desktop - you just have to fiddle a bit
23:57
< maoranma>
Nah, I want something different than Ubuntu anyway
23:57
<@himi>
Ubuntu is just another Debian derivative, so moving to plain Debian isn't hard
23:58
< maoranma>
Yea, trying to think if there's anything that I have to have on this computer that I can't do inside a VM
23:58
< ShellNinja>
The Ubuntus that I saw had this retarded interface which I couldn't grok.
23:58
<@himi>
These days the only non-Debian options that aren't, like, totally hardcore are Fedora and OpenSuSE
23:59
<@himi>
(said with tongue in cheek, in case it wasn't obvious)
23:59
< maoranma>
Well, like a decade ago when I was first experimenting with Linux, I had the issue of having a slackware zealot as a mentor, haha
