mercutioin the late 90s i had dialup, pages were bloated before flash
with all those damn animated gifs.
so i used links :/
[01:53]

kellytklynx? [02:10]
brycecelinks? :) [02:10]
mercutionah plain links
elinks is bloated
this is late 90s we're talking about right
[02:12]
bryceclinks is bloated compared to lynx :P [02:13]
mercutionot really [02:13]
bryceclynx was my first text browser, around 1999 or so [02:13]
mercutioand layout works so much better
omg
[02:13]
brycecno wait, older... [02:13]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [02:13]
mercutiolinks is huge now [02:13]
bryceclol [02:13]
mercutio1.3mb binary
it wasn't like that before
i had 24 mb of ram
and i i left like 6 instances running all the time
i think back then links was less bloated than lynx
lynx binary is 1.5mb now
[02:13]
kellytkI find it satisfying to see "modern" browsers adding a new text-only feature (Firefox Reader View)
I like the idea of click-to-run being applied to images, and presenting only text + layout by default
How would the ideal lightweight [GUI] browser work in your opinions?

m0undslol @ bad samsung design: you can create long, complex pws to sign in to your samsung acct on their site. their mobile sso apps only allow 15 (not 16) character pws. [12:25]

m0undsha, then on top of that, when you chg your pw, it wipes out your local samsung pay details so you have to do it again. silly shit.
(call the bank to verify the card you add, etc)

mnathani_anyone else notice green checkmarks on desktop icons after migrating to windows 10? [17:41]
mercutiodekstop icons? i don't notice desktop icons :)
i can hardly read he desktop icons, they're really tiny, but i can't see azny green
i do have blue arrows
[17:49]
mnathani_those indicate shortcuts I think
my green checkmarks seem to have disappeared
[17:51]
mercutioi have really tiny icons, adn they don't work well with my background picture
i never use desktop icons though
[17:53]
mnathani_4k or 1440p? [17:53]
mercutio1440p
windows don't go so well on 4k
well on smaller screen 4k
[17:53]
mnathani_I suppose video editing might benefit
have multiple 1080p windows
[17:54]
mercutiolots of things can benefit i imagine [17:55]
mnathani_not coding / IRC / facebook [17:55]
mercutiowhat
coding/irc benefit :)
you can have better text
[17:55]
mnathani_I guess if you do split windows [17:55]
mercutiowithin the same space
you think i do full screen irc? :)
[17:55]
mnathani_I have it on a separate monitor [17:56]
mercutiohmm if i make it full screen it's 273x75
no-one ever writes that wide :)
[17:56]
mnathani_not even BryceBot? [17:57]
mercutiooh brycebot did
haha
[17:57]
mnathani_lol [17:57]
mercutiook this feels funny [17:57]
brycecI have IRC'd @ 2560x1440 with 8pt font before. It's... insane. There's just so much room! [17:57]
mercutioi made the text ultra-big
so now i'm at 106x29
which is more like how i used to use irc in the 90s
with svgatextmode, and it seems all encompassing
weirdly it's actually harder to read being so big
[17:57]
brycecI IRC @ 169x87 (characters, not pixels), which is approximately 1/2 of a 1080p monitor for me. (Of course, it's Weechat so there are several buffers in that space)
Windows list: [1] (0:18;169x63) [2] (0:2;169x15)
(not that /window list really encapsulates everything on screen :P)
[18:04]
mnathani_how long do you guys usually run a windows desktop before rebooting? [18:16]
...... (idle for 25mn)
brycecSame "rules" as my *nix desktops - until it needs it, eg installing an update, or some uncorrectable error. [18:41]
m0undsi shut mine down when i'm done for the day [18:48]
brycecI sleep mine [18:48]
m0undszero reason for me to leave mine up unless my goal is a higher energy bill [18:48]
brycecPutting it to sleep or letting it go to sleep means I can quickly WOL it and RDP back in.
I'm less concerned about the electric bill, more concerned about the heat it puts into the room :p
[18:49]
m0undshaha
heat = ac for me
so more heat = more ac = more power
[18:50]
brycecOh for sure... unless you don't have A/C ;) (or you do have AC but it's a portable unit and you try to not need to run it) [18:52]
m0undsright
my AC is one of the "energy efficient" ones that draws air from every room in an attempt to balace the temperature and stuff
it just means i have to run it longer for the temperature to equalize

mercutiomnathani_: a couple of months [19:27]

mnathani_Original Install Date: 8/29/2015, 4:42:14 PM
System Boot Time: 8/29/2015, 6:54:34 PM
[19:28]
mercutioheh

i think that was an update
that force rebooted
weird it says original install date is the 29th of 7
i installed way before that
most be when i updated to the final build?
[19:28]
mnathani_did you update to windows 10 on that date?
probably
[19:29]
mercutioi have no idea tbh [19:39]
