I like coding HTML and CSS, but PHP, ASP, and SQL are currently beyond me :( |
The design factor of CSS sometimes baffles me, haha. I have to look at others for ideas.

That's basically all coding, honestly.

CSS coding isn't that difficult; it might be a little confusing at first, but once you learn all basics, you'll get the hang of everything else pretty swiftly.

CSS is simpler and easier than HTML, tbh. I got the hang of CSS quickly and in a matter of days when I took a class of it. To me, it's basically HTML but without the <>, and there's more colons.
It really bothers me when one simple semicolon or bracket or *think* can ruin your whole code. & i want that because reasons. that looks sexy. |
At least I'm in a situation where I could code in PHP and edit the files while having them up in a webpage just to see if I've made errors. One thing I wish many text editors had (I'm eye-balling you Notepad++) is the ability to check for semicolons that may be missing.
|
I really like Notepad++, but yeah, missing semi-colons can hurt. Thankfully, I'm pretty good at remembering those. XD My problem is I don't know all the tags so I have to look it up. I'm also annoyed that I can't use transform in my usertitle's css.
UPSIDE DOWN [cd=transform: rotate(-180deg); moz-transform: rotate(-180deg); webkit-transform: rotate(-180deg);]UPSIDE DOWN[/cd] No idea why this doesn't work on PC. :c |
I had a whole error in my program that crashed my entire app. I spent hours investigating.
Result? Add one word and a comma. |

What are the specs of the laptop? |

I would agree with others about sticking a linux distribution on it. It should run Ubuntu or Mint just fine. |
Sometimes I wish my desktop could go higher than 4 GB of RAM, but that's as high as it can go, and it was stock with 4 GB of RAM as well.
|
My desktop has 2 GB of RAM that's over seven years old. It's DDR2 memory, since DDR3 wasn't even out yet. :3 It runs Linux Mint <3 I love it so much.

I think I'm okay with my 6 GB of RAM tbh. xD I mean, I can play good games with it and multitask well, but I do like more because I'm a nerd like that. ;D
If I still had my HP laptop I would have done that in a heartbeat. It had 1 GB RAM. |
I dread the day where 8 GB isn't enough for everyday multimedia computing.

Guys I downloaded more RAM and now I have 16gb instead of 8!!!

Some kind of heavy-duty server.
Or servers. |
I totally forgot to factor in servers lmao
-hides in corner with server that only has 2 GB RAM- |
It is a Virtual Machine Host, we have three of them. As you can see, the bottleneck is storage.

640K ought to be enough for anybody

Now we have absurd amounts of video RAM in our GPUs.
Seriously, they're practically their own little computers - and a lot of that part is actually true these days. |

12GB of GDDR5 at 384-bit bus width with a clock cycle of 3.0GHz. And that is just the RAM. That beast has 2880 CUDA cores with a peak throughput of 4.29 Tflops! Granted it costs 1/4 of my car, but d***!! |

On another topic, I hope the Nokia Lumia 930 is out by my next birthday, because that's what I'm getting. If not, well... gotta think about what would be the closest phone to that. |
I've had my phone for under a year and I already want an iPhone... or at least a new iDevice. :p

The phone upgrade bug strikes people again.
I'm not renewing my contract, so I won't be getting 4G data speeds in any form, but not that it matters. HSPA+ is plenty fast. |
My parents are considering getting new iPhones sometime this year. However, what worries them is that they'll lose their unlimited data with Verizon (it was only 3G anyways).

I love Iphone but iOS 7 drains my battery. Guys I need help! I want to keep my Avast but this popup gets annoying, is there anywa to get rid of it:
Spoiler:

@acatfrommars no idea D: |
My iPhone is extremely old, haha. I bought it about six years ago. Might buy a new one, but my current is still working without any trouble at all. Well, it does make it tough sometimes to hear what people are saying over speaker, but that personally doesn't bother me too much. Plus, I also have Android; one more reason as to why I shouldn't get another iPhone. They're pretty expensive, too, so there's that.
|
In the near future our family will all be getting Samsung Android phones with 4G and 802.11ac capabilities. I myself am saving for a Galaxy S4, since Windows phones are too different for me and their app store lacks quite a bit (from what I hear), and don't even get me started on Apple and their iPhones. Ew.
Along with picking our phones' service providers, I'm going to be deciding our ISP when we move… I'm looking hard at you, Comcast. |
Any iPhone users got the new skype update? It's an exact replica of the windows app.
Spoiler:
What iPhone do you have right now, Ashley? Well if you get an iPhone, you are forced to get a data plan. No exceptions. xD At&T is okay, but when you live in an area like...where I'm at right now, the signal is just spotty. We have 4G (and LTE), but it's extreeeeeeeemely spotty. I really like T-Mobile and I'm totally switching once I decide to upgrade to an iPhone 5S. Quote:
Also, do you have adblock enabled? Avast usually alerts you when a certain ad on a certain webpage has some sort of malware. It's there to keep you on the safe side. |

(You're very lucky when you live in somewhere where all phones are sold unlocked and can be paired with any carrier, no matter what, and how you got the phone.) |
Still, I wouldn't want to get a phone that you're forced to buy data for, as that's just some stupid capitalistic BS. My Samsung Galaxy Reverb (SPH-M950) was locked for Virgin Mobile IIRC, but I ran a Wi-Fi signal through it without any service at all. And I had options to get plans without data. The phone was only designed for VM, so that may be why it only took it.
|
"Stupid capitalistic BS" - you mean the fee that you pay to maintain the service and whatnot? You realize you're not paying for wifi, you're paying for the 3G/4G service, which the carrier operates and maintains. :|
That said, data plans are ridiculously expensive and mobile carriers are all terrible corporations, but to say that charging for data is "stupid capitalistic BS" is just ignoring the facts. |

So in other news, my grandmother wanted me to salvage parts from her old XP computer, and I decided to put the hard drive to use, and install Linux on it. Zorin OS to be specific.

Speaking of hard drives, I just got a 3TB Seagate HDD in the mail today. I played with the partitions and set AutoRun icons for all three partitions along with my two internal partitions (classic XP icon ftw), also cleaning up all the spare partitions here and there. At one point, after creating the partitions on the external and before internal reconciliation, all my partitions filled the window! :P |
One thing I would at least hope for is that my desktop's time doesn't get messed up when I switch back to Windows. :P I think I got the settings correct, I guess I'll find out when I switch back.
Also, I've never really dual-booted between two hard drives before. The last time I dual-booted, I just shared partitions on the same HDD. |
Just enable Internet time synchronization. Then you can stop worrying about time going bonkers.
|
Turns out my time settings went untouched, which has been a first for me with dual-booting between Linux and Windows.
|
I guess I really like having all the things right there as I installed a lot of previously-not-installed apps now.
|
I need to get another external hard drive sooner or later. I need to make backups of my laptop and my desktop, and I wish I had the space on my current external HDD to do that. :/
|
I tried to do an apt upgrade of my Linux Mint installation that didn't do everything that I wanted it to, so it looks like I'll be installing it manually now. Hnnggg, that'll be annoying reinstalling programs but at least I'll keep my home directory so it won't be all lost.
|
Hmm, I haven't been so impressed with using a Linux distro like this ever. I've been using my Zorin OS install all day today. :p
|
I really enjoy Mint, it has a nice amount of polish. <3
|
Hmm, one of the best smartphones that you can get, or a 1 TB SSD... Kind of hard to decide. For some reason. Probably because I would appreciate having accelerated everything, but I also kind of need to move on from "budget" smartphones and their limitations.

If anything, I really wish more people developed for Windows Phone. It has just as much potential as iOS and Android if you ask me.

Feels funny bringing a portable battery every single day, but at least I'll never run out of charge for the day. |
I think it's bad enough that the "YouTube" app from Microsoft for Windows Phone is just a link to YouTube's mobile site, or at least that's what many of the reviewers are saying.

Google won't develop one, nor provide the required APIs - even when the YouTube team themselves are pretty fly with the idea. |

Battery life is one of the reasons I won't go back to Android. My iPhone's battery life is good, but still not nearly as good as my old 925. |

A quick search finds alternative apps like this one. Seems like Windows phone devices have to rely on 3rd party apps just to receive the same functionality other platforms get without all the hassle.

I've been having a weird problem with my Skype lately...
I can't see the group chats where my friends add me. This was also troubling when my team leader made a new chat group, and I wasn't even aware that he made one. So of course, I wasn't aware of the work we had. >.> But if I'm the one who'll make a new chat group, there's no problem. =/ So yeah, I just wanna know why my Skype is acting up like this. My OS is Windows 7 and I also tried reinstalling Skype a couple of times, and even tried installing a lower version of it, but still nothing. ...I'm not gonna try and reformat my PC. :P So yeah... Anyone has any idea why this is happening to me? |
Quote:
For some reason, I've never encountered a problem with Skype. |
On the topic of Windows phones: as a mobile developer, working on it just makes no sense. Sure, it has potential, but when your options are to develop for a ton of people or develop for a tiny sliver of people, I don't see how anyone would pick the sliver. Then when you want to work more, it would make more sense to work on a new app for the ton of people instead of expanding your old app to the sliver.

Quote:
Though, it does pain me to see that people not even bothering to create a gussied-up web wrapper for Windows Phone. (When it comes to actual mobile code, it's best to try to make code with as few assumptions about the target platform as possible.) (Also, speaking of mobile market share, things aren't as clear-cut as PCs on a per-country basis. Remember that the second and third place can be any combination of iOS, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry.) |
Quote:
The difference between developing apps freelance whenever you want and developing as a long term career. :) |
One thing I like about Android is the ability to sideload apps while on a stock ROM. I'm not sure if it's possible on Windows Phone or not, and I know for a fact that sideloading apps from iOS requires root, or at least I think it does.

Quote:
I guess I didn't make my point clear enough - I think I meant "are" where it was a "should" in the last post. And, yes, not all Android devices are the same - I am fully aware of the differences between devices that are "with Google's blessing", so to speak, and other devices that roll their own services (Kindle being one of them, but also to note is Nokia X) Consumers, marketers - that's one way to put things that way. But what if nobody uses a given platform because nobody bothered to develop apps for it? Sometimes, I think all it takes is an incentive. I can dream, right? At least nobody can dock points for trying. Quote:

Have you guys heard about what T-Mobile is doing with Uncarrier 5.0?
I found this video that has all of the funny bits sliced together. It's rather humorous. Check it out (Warning link contains cursing) http://www.tmonews.com/2014/06/see-last-nights-uncarrier-announcement-cut-down-to-just-the-fun-parts/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter |

It's nice to see T-Mobile trying things. We need them to be viable to keep Verizon and AT&T from raising their prices even further.
What's wonderful about being with T-Mobile is that my unlimited data plan was grandfathered into their "Un-Carrier" service rather than being forced into line with their other services. Even though I barely pass 500 MB in usage in a typical month because I'm constantly near a WiFi network, it's nice to know that my data is not limited. |
