Just figured a term for the asshole ISPs in Canada and USA that fuck their customers over.
Canada + USA = North America, so ISPs operating in these markets are North American ISPs, but they're also being fascist fuckwads to their customers, so they can be called Nazi Asshole Internet Service Providers, or NA ISPs.
It states both their market location, and their behaviour.

I can't fucking wait for Mailpile to get to the point where it's good enough for daily usage, and is feature-complete (aka v1.0 release)
This is literally the best thing I've used, but my God, it's a pain in the ass right now.

Grabbed some 1080p screenshots with the browser in fullscreen mode.

The current state of the damn thing is fucking hilarious, though.
It's a webmail client, with no login system, so you have to keep it listening on localhost-only, if you open it up to the Internet, anyone can look at your mail.
It's also incapable of actually downloading the mail itself. You either have to run Thunderbird(or Icedove in my case), add the mailbox in, and then do a rescan manually when Thunderbird receives email, and then it'll pop up in Mailpile. Or you can have a program that downloads your mail via IMAP into your mail directory on Linux, and it can then read it from there.
And the GPG key management isn't in the client yet. Because they're making a mail client that's supposed to help your privacy, so obviously there's no point setting up any of the encryption options quite yet.
Though, since it can't even download mail by itself right now, it technically doesn't need support for reading or sending encrypted mail, since it can't receive any yet.
[QUOTE=fishyfish777;44056795]until you run into something stupid like my college which doesn't allow email forwarding so the easiest way to access it is to just use a mail client and IMAP so you don't have to log in to a website with ridiculous minimum password requirements every time[/QUOTE]
My school blocks some ports that have no real reason to be blocked.
[QUOTE=kaukassus;44056479]To anyone who's using Sublime Text here, may be interested in this:
You may know that Sublime Text has seen next to no updates in a Long time (only a small one in december).
Looks like they may have been bought up by github, along with their editor.
And their new editor is gonna be called "Atom". [url]http://atom.io[/url]
[url]https://github.com/atom[/url]
It looks like Sublime Text, but open.
[url]https://github.com/atom/atom-light-ui[/url]
[url]https://github.com/atom/atom-dark-ui[/url]
I am fucking pumped, since I love Sublime Text, but it's closed source and didn't get updated in a lifetime.
Looks like it's going to be paid in a future time.[/QUOTE]
I freaking love Sublime, but I wish they would do a "upgrade" feature for a licence.
Laptop seems to think my battery life is a lot shorter than it actually is. Says at 100% my battery life is 1 hour 14 minutes. Loaded my laptop when it was at 50%. That was over an hour ago. 30 minutes ago it went down to 5.5%/2 minutes left and I haven't plugged it in and its still going strong.
For my own-hosted email I use "Zentyal" and use Zarafa as my webmail client. Zentyal has the added bonus of handling DHCP, gateway, DNS, VPN and acting as a PDC. Works a treat.
It has the ability to handle File and Print sharing but really I like using my ReadyNAS for that.

Games and torrents makes sense but blocking Google cloud messaging ports does not. It makes me so mad. Hangouts Video calling doesn't work by Skype calls do.
locking GSM phones should be illegal
well guys
networking problem
I get 30Mbps at my modem
yet 15 Mbps at my desktop
the only thing inbetween those is my router, a fairly new Linsys AE3500
Logic says the router is throttling my connection
Are there any settings that could be holding it back, or is it just a pile of shit?

I got hired to edit and produce a sort of store launch highlight video for some company. One of my old coworkers got me into it and they shot it all on iPhones.
Vertically.
I want to work on this to stay in the loop with her since she occasionally has work, but there is a lot more work than she initially told me. About 45minutes of random iphone video that I have to put together into some sort of highlight video. I told her I'd look over the footage and tell her if my estimate would change or if I could do it.
Ugh
When in doubt listen to your beard.

I think I found the most unbelievable thing in VLC today, has this thing where it can "fingerprint" a song and I've had problems with a few songs I took from DOOM multiplayer WADS being of low quality. I had no luck identifying them previously in other apps and this goes and does it in one go. Now I've found pretty fine quality versions of them and I'm happy as anything.

tell them your rate increases exponentially based on how much seconds of vertical video footage you get. if they bitch about it, tell them they should have recorded it horizontally so you'd provide a flat rate.
I'll show myself out.

Smartphone?
What you should not do is record in game audio and your voice together. Only record your voice with that. Let Fraps or whatever do internal audio recording with the video recording.
If you're worried about syncing the audio it's super easy. At the beginning of the recording, make sure both the video and your phone is recording and say you're clicking something to the mic and say "now" or whatever and click on a menu in game to sync the audio.

Doesn't work unless I'm actually in a call for some reason.
I feel both lucky and stupid. I had my 3-week old Sony CX280 camera in a hoodie pocket while riding my bike. Before doing so, I did think a bit about if the pocket was safe, but I estimated it would be fine, I didn't have to travel for very long.
While going pretty fast, I heard something being dropped behind me. The camera was no longer in my pocket. [B]Fuck.[/B] I slammed the breaks and went back to the camera. The camera stood in upright position with the screen open and facing down a bit so I couldn't see the LCD. I picked the camera up and prepared myself to see a busted LCD panel. It was unharmed, which was a huge relief. I then took a look at the image the camera produced, and it was extremely out of focus. I hoped for the best and restarted the camera.
Everything was fine after restarting it, so at this point I was really relieved, but I still felt like an idiot.
Good thing this camera isn't super expensive, and it still performs as well as ever which is the main thing I care about. Plus, the cosmetic damage isn't all that bad compared to my expectations.
On the other hand, it makes me like this camera even more because in addition to being very well priced and a good performer, I now know that it's tough as well.

It's actually all off, it's just displaying hot since the iron was still hot from when I was using it. I think it turns off when it gets to 90*F, when it's on that's a readout of the temperature.
Words can't come close to describing how happy I am to forever remove 40w pen soldering irons from my life.
Topped with blue LED backlighting.
This footage is so bad.

And apparently these people were on The Bachelor. I'm amazed they didn't have like even a decent videographer there.
It's too damn fun moving stuff from one server to another, ssh windows everywhere and what not.
Probably only ran into about 1 or 2 errors on the way, which is much better than last time I did this
