[21:56:50] * katsmeow had/has a bad modem, or it was hacked
[21:59:50] <katsmeow> hmm
[23:22:41] <rue_house> hello
[23:22:56] <rue_house> arg
[23:23:19] <rue_house> how can I sleep 12 hour a day if people are asking me to do all these things
[23:26:06] <katsmeow> swap tasks, have them sleep for you
[23:28:59] <rue_house> sleep is nontransferrable
[23:29:39] <rue_house> I'm trying to rip togethor instructions for activities at the maker faire
[23:30:02] <katsmeow> the arm writes a book
[23:30:30] <rue_house> http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tutorials/elex/wiremaze/main.html
[23:30:40] <rue_house> if you have the opportunity to wati for it to load
[23:31:06] <rue_house> whats html for making a bullet?
[23:31:39] <katsmeow> i use a pic and tables, because the bullets don't stop wordwrapping up under themselves
[23:32:38] <rue_house> how about if I follow them with a <br>
[23:33:06] <katsmeow> the text can still run up under the bullet, which i don't like
[23:33:42] <katsmeow> to i make a table, put the buttel in ne cell to the left, and a cell for text that cannot get cozy to the bullet
[23:33:58] <rue_house> oh i see what you mean
[23:35:52] <katsmeow> if there is enough text that the cells get tall, you can let the bullet center on the text, or put it up at the first sentence where it belongs
[23:36:23] <katsmeow> using tables, you can insert blank cells for additional spacing if yu like
[23:36:33] <katsmeow> and use pics of preffered bullets
[23:37:55] <rue_house> "Where did the alien go?" "It was surprised when the music came on kinda loud, laid an egg, and quickly left..." "hmm, oops"

[23:38:15] <rue_house> blast from my past
[23:38:46] <rue_house> dear dog, I have 10 browser windows up with no less than 6 tabs each...
[23:39:08] <katsmeow> that's only 60 pages
[23:39:43] <rue_house> yea, I'm keeping too many things up to remmeber stuff
[23:40:40] <katsmeow> at least yu can kill FF.exe, then shut down the puter, after rebooting, restart FF and it will reopen the pages
[23:40:52] <rue_house> yup
[23:40:58] <katsmeow> i have still 80 txt files open in an editor, i cannot close
[23:41:35] <rue_house> do you have applications up you can switch to, because the resulting reswap time would lock the computer for too long?
[23:42:26] <katsmeow> no, all i have active atm is a text editor, FF, and email
[23:42:41] <katsmeow> often have a pdf up and a dosbox tho
[23:42:47] <katsmeow> or several of each
[23:43:07] <rue_house> I have 11 terminal windows,
[23:43:09] <rue_house> irc
[23:43:09] <katsmeow> ff is using 1.2 GB or memory
[23:43:19] <katsmeow> of
[23:43:24] <rue_house> (now 7) browser windows,
[23:43:28] <rue_house> email
[23:43:39] <katsmeow> have 4 sessions of FF open n the laptop atm too
[23:43:45] <rue_house> editor, music player, and image viewer
[23:43:59] <katsmeow> vlc often on the laptop, just closed it
[23:44:57] <rue_house> not sure if one is part of the other, ff is pulling "2G virtual" and "1.5G resident"
[23:45:17] <rue_house> 18.9% of the systems memory
[23:45:25] <rue_house> (8G)
[23:45:34] <rue_house> but I'm 0% swap
[23:45:45] <rue_house> (21G swap total)
[23:46:04] <katsmeow> wow
[23:46:29] <rue_house> (0% used)
[23:46:50] <rue_house> 185 processes...
[23:47:16] <rue_house> I feel sorry for new processors and the amount of multitasking they are stuck with
[23:47:43] <rue_house> 185 isn't even much
[23:48:38] <katsmeow> there was no BigBangTheory tonite?
[23:49:04] <rue_house> dont tend to watch that one
[23:49:26] <rue_house> I been randomizing dr-who to try to catch ones I may not have seen yet
[23:49:38] <rue_house> there is some animated one I been watching
[23:49:48] <rue_house> havn't watched anything in about a week now
[23:50:00] <rue_house> if I were watching something, I'd be chatting too
[23:51:05] <katsmeow> there's nothing on the actual tv here any more, i find TBBT and supergirl online, and if a few scifi shows will ever be made again, i watch them
[23:51:30] <rue_house> digital really killed everything didn't it?
[23:51:39] <rue_house> digital killed the TV star
[23:51:49] <katsmeow> yep, cannot pick up any station from Bham any more
[23:52:03] <katsmeow> or the PBS from Talledega
[23:52:30] <katsmeow> i get enough signal to get one bar, not enough to decode to pic or sund
[23:52:34] <katsmeow> sound
[23:55:38] <rue_house> you know, I think I'm stuck trying to amaze myself in my life
[23:55:46] <rue_house> donkey -> carrot
[23:55:59] <katsmeow> wll, at least it's a carrot
[23:56:24] <rue_house> but its obviously tied to a string hanging from a stick off my back...
[23:56:45] <katsmeow> i think the goal is to overcharge and grab all the money, and then do whatever you want, or pay people to do it for you
[23:57:21] <rue_house> pff, peoplelike you me are the only ones who do things right, I dont want anyone else doing my stuff
[23:58:27] * katsmeow looks at Tom
[23:58:54] <rue_house> haha oops crap
[23:59:33] <katsmeow> heh
