<1> Lion-O: it's more that windows "professionals" tend to learn by rote and don't enjoy tinkering like we do
<2> Jostein: hm ?
<3> i must concede that most people running windows don't venture further than the basics
<4> there are no such thing as windows technical people. there are MCSES and technical people dragooned into looking after windows machines too...
<2> smsie: hmm.
<0> Lion-O: check the nekochannels :P
<2> Jostein: ah. you didn't file a proper handwritten request in threefold though ;)

<9> Can somebody look up British Airways flight BAW 2227 and tell me if it's landing. Apparently I can't go to any other webpage other than google
<9> http://www.fboweb.com/cob/google.asp?airline=BAW&flightnum=2227
<9> That's the link...I just can't get to it
<10> Status: IN FLIGHT
<9> schitzo: What's the remaining time on it?
<11> 6 min
<9> Thank you
<10> Calculated ETA: 05:50 PM EDT (2150Z), In 0h 6m
<9> $girl is on that plane
<9> Coming back from her month long journey in Spain
<12> all I can tell is that it's over the 'States...
<10> it's actually south of ATL
<10> she flying into Hartsfield?
<9> Yep
<10> ok, they looks like it's getting into an approach pattern or something from what I can tell
<9> I think they had to fly around the storms north of Atlanta
<9> Which ****ed because they were already an hour late
<10> yeah, I heard it was raining here, but then I looked out the window
<10> beats me what the hell is going on
<9> It rained here for about 5 minutes
<13> that is a cool service
<13> fboweb.com, that is
<9> Yeah, when you can get to it
<9> Damn internet
<13> :) works here
<9> This is weird...I can grab my mail from the .edu server, but I can't get it from gmx.net
<10> reality: you **** at the internet
<9> No, BrightHouse Network's ****s at the internet
<10> or that
<9> Somebody throw me an open nameserver
<12> try this: 202.180.64.9 <== nz name server, might be open, might not.
<9> That worked
<9> Thanks
<10> D-side: you awake?
<14> can anyone help me with dead keys in X?
<7> d3t: Reading http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html will greatly increase the chances of getting a useful answer instead of getting a pinecone crammed up your ***.
<14> i already tried that you moron
<9> Then why didn't you ask an intelligent question?
<14> it was not a dumb question
<14> this subject (dead keys) has terrible documentation around
<9> d3t: It was about as uninformative as anything
<12> d3t: a better question would maybe have been "what decent documentation exists to get dead keys working under X?"
<14> Viking667 what if I already knew that such documentation doesnt exist?
<12> hrm. Then you have a small problem. You could do like I do, write it once you know what you needed to do.
<14> i dont have sufficient expertise to code this
<12> doesn't require coding, just enough smarts to learn how X does keymaps... xkb and stuff like that.
<14> I already learned what there is available to learn
<7> d3t: so now you know everything... go write a book about it.
<14> almost all dead keys work OK.. ... except this one
<12> ah huh. ANd you're in here asking for ....mmmm
<14> Ka-bar maybe Ill write a book about your stupidity
<9> d3t: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Openoffice_and_dead_keys
<12> I get a A with a diaresis above, followed by @
<11> Viking667, you're not using UTF-8, then
<12> i.e. you're transmitting the UNicode
<11> I see á é õ ć
<12> Liandrin: yeah. Blame irssi under twin.
<12> huh? cacute?
<11> Viking667, yes
<14> this is precisely the problem. cacute should be cedilla
<7> d3t: and I'll write a book about you raping g0ats
<12> what flaming language does THAT belong to?
<11> Viking667, mostly used in Slavic languages, but I think d3t is probably wanting çla;
<12> ahh.
<12> yes. That would probably be right. I don't have "dead keys" as such, so have to "borrow" a key to use with Compose, it's not entirely successful either.
<11> Viking667, as far as your Unicode issues go, I suspect twin is to blame, because Irssi does UTF-8 just fine elsewise
<8> woo
<8> I may have a job interview coming up
<12> yeah. I think you're possibly right. I might go fire up a client under xterm-utf8 or something
<1> for what?
<8> senior sysadmin
<1> nice
<1> better than not being employed, certainly
<8> hehe
<8> no kidding
<8> paycheques are useful for keeping all those people who want money happy
<4> like barmen, for example
<14> Liandrin: do you have any idea on how to change cacute to ccedilla in X?
<11> d3t, I've never used a keyboard layout with dead keys under X, but xmodmap is probably the tool to use
<8> haven't seen you around in a while
<11> I've been here, where've you been? :P
<12> Gimme a min, I'll bring in a clone.
<15> hello. Liandrin - could you oblige by pasting that last UTF line that got pasted? I can't pull it off the screen from here.
<11>
<15> hrm. That looks like .... ahm, weird.
<15> some graphics char... ohh, hang on.
<8> Liandrin: I
<8> I've been getting married
<7> seems to be contagious 'round these parts lately.
<8> we got in last night at about 2am
<8> we drove from Buffalo, NY to Newark, NJ to catch our flight, which was then delayed 4 hours
<8> oh, btw, NJ is the buttcrack of the universe
<11> blueroo, ugh
<16> need help
<8> tyler: that's not very polite, you know
<16> need help please
<16> ??
<16> im getting Can't work out which disk we are booting from.
<8> I suppose that's marginally better
<8> tyler: some context would be lovely
<7> tyler: you are not making sense
<16> freebsd 6.1
<16> it wont boot
<8> Tyler, this is #linux
<8> why would you come here for FreeBSD help?
<16> because they cant help me on freebsd
<16> lol
<8> oh, because you tried asking in #freebsd and nobody answered.
<16> no they answered but are no help
<7> tyler: and you think freebsd has something to do with linux... because?
<17> maybe he mistakenly believes freebsd = linux
<17> that happens sometimes.
