| 15:02.54 | aeryndunham | Morning |
| 15:05.24 | straya | good morning |
| 15:05.53 | aeryndunham | straya: how are you?? |
| 15:06.06 | straya | I'm alright, going to be a busy day |
| 15:06.09 | straya | how are you? |
| 15:06.13 | aeryndunham | ok |
| 15:06.35 | aeryndunham | staring in disillusionment at my computer :P |
| 15:07.30 | straya | why? |
| 15:10.06 | aeryndunham | Oh, just really frustrated trying to fx it |
| 15:10.21 | aeryndunham | I tried for hours, Chris tried for a couple hours, no reply on KDE forums, so... |
| 15:34.34 | romanovic | aeryndunham: mouse was clicking on hover? or click doesn't work at all? |
| 15:35.30 | aeryndunham | It's a combination at this point. A lot of things are opening on mouseover, but then the icons in my dock (most of the time) can't be clicked on at all |
| 15:35.46 | aeryndunham | Chris is pretty sure it thinks the left mouse button is being held down, but not specific to MY mouse |
| 15:43.44 | romanovic | that is strange. I wonder if it could be caused by your keyboard or any other usb device? |
| 15:44.26 | aeryndunham | Maybe? But it's so odd. It was all working fine, and I don't recall updating or downloading anything that night when I went to bed. |
| 15:44.32 | romanovic | have you already tried unplugging all other peripherals? |
| 15:45.15 | romanovic | I have a usb port on my computer that won't recognise my mouse properly, but seems to be ok with a thumb drive or usb headset |
| 15:45.42 | aeryndunham | I haven't, but only because I dunno how I'd log in with no keyboard |
| 15:45.57 | romanovic | Moved my usb devices to other ports, and everything started working |
| 15:46.01 | romanovic | yeah. |
| 15:46.14 | aeryndunham | I can try rearranging things |
| 15:46.36 | aeryndunham | I just mostly don't want to need to do any more distro-hopping. :p |
| 15:48.18 | romanovic | I can imagine. You don't want distro fatigue to ruin your linux experience |
| 15:48.47 | aeryndunham | And I don't mind setting up a VM once in a while to play with something new, but.... I don't want to reinstall for real |
| 15:52.36 | *** join/#utah aeryndunham (~aeryndunh@170.250.131.39) |
| 15:53.14 | romanovic | Another thing to try if you haven't already is shutting off the PC's power supply or unplugging it to make sure all peripheral circuits are truely dead and booting up cold after a restart. |
| 15:53.24 | aeryndunham | needs to go put herself in the stupid corner |
| 15:53.54 | romanovic | I'm not sure if that step actually helps people, or if it was just a delay tactic I was instructed to give customers when I was phone tech support back in 2001 |
| 15:54.07 | aeryndunham | but can someone smarter than me please explain how simply UNPLUGGING MY HEADSET fixed EVERYTHING, INSTANTLY |
| 15:54.16 | aeryndunham | cries and feels like a complete moron |
| 15:54.44 | romanovic | that's very strange. Also, hooray! |
| 15:55.05 | straya | bet the headset has a button on it thats mapped to left click |
| 15:55.10 | straya | and its gone right to hell |
| 15:55.25 | aeryndunham | hmm maybe. I only see volume buttons and a mute botton |
| 15:55.47 | straya | maybe the circuit controlling them is some garbage and it defaulted to a bad config |
| 15:55.56 | aeryndunham | maybe |
| 15:56.09 | aeryndunham | I did build this computer myself and I've been constantly amazed that everything is working as well as it is |
| 15:56.14 | aeryndunham | since, well, it was put together by me |
| 15:58.05 | romanovic | imagines Darth Vader's voice, "I see you have constructed a new computational device" |
| 15:58.44 | aeryndunham | god I'm so annoyed with myself |
| 15:59.07 | aeryndunham | Plugged the headset back in and all still seems ok |
| 16:13.48 | unum | sound like a very confused usb driver |
| 16:14.43 | unum | out of six city council candidates one was smart enough to set up a domain for it |
| 16:14.58 | unum | I bet they all claim they'll develop the prison site as a tech hub |
| 16:15.16 | unum | because what tech ceo doesn't want to look out his window and look at a gravel pit? |
| 16:15.50 | unum | ha, he has it listed for his email but not the website is still going to go daddy |

| 19:04.50 | manithree | This is a joke, right? https://node-os.com/ |
| 19:09.03 | youtah | "using Node.js as userspace" |
| 19:09.45 | beelzebob | "The NodeOS Project is aiming to, and can already run on some of the following platforms:" |
| 19:10.11 | beelzebob | suspense! |
| 19:10.55 | youtah | So can you really call it an operating system if it is only running in the userspace? |
| 19:11.03 | youtah | and not the Kernel Space? |
| 19:11.08 | youtah | doesn't get it |
| 19:11.39 | youtah | I am assuming this came out of San Francisco |
| 19:12.06 | youtah | Ah, it would replace something like busybox, etc |
| 19:12.29 | beelzebob | seems to be node repl running as init? |
| 19:12.37 | manithree | I can see a unikernel/node image for running node (micro)services. Maybe that's what this is, not a general purpose OS |
| 19:13.13 | youtah | beelzebob, si senior, that is what I am thinking |
| 19:13.16 | youtah | guessing really |
| 19:13.37 | youtah | my co-worker is looking at it |
| 19:13.47 | youtah | he is calling it an abomination |
| 19:21.25 | beelzebob | I'd pick "irrelevant" over "abomination" |
| 19:27.35 | manithree | Heh. "Any package in npm is a NodeOS package, which at last count was 244, 180 packages." But how many of them are just for left padding strings? |
| 19:33.37 | straya | an awful lot. |
