From: Jonathan Trites Date: 09:21 on 06 Aug 2005 Subject: make uninstall Here's something I hate. Programs that after you do the ./configure, make, make install, you realize for one reason or another that you did something wrong or you no longer want the program. So, after it shits all over /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, /usr/lib, or whateverthefuck other directories it uses that have a bajillion and a half other files already in them, so you can't manually delete the program, you try 'make uninstall'. And what the fuck do you get: make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop. Well, FUCK YOU TOO. I haven't done any other ./configure's or changed anything, so you should be able to fucking uninstall. I just don't want you on my system anymore. So, GET THE FUCK OFF. But nooooooooo, I can't do that because it put files all over the fucking place and I have no way of ever being able to get it fully off of my system. Just fucking great.
From: Jonathan Trites Date: 08:54 on 06 Aug 2005 Subject: Mozilla tabs and url's OK, so I like firefox. It's way better than IE, duh. I haven't tried opera in a few years, but firefox has been good to me, except in this one regard. So, I'm at a page where I'm going to open up a bunch of links (> 10) to read in separate tabs. I can do this with my wheel button or holding down control and clicking normally. Either way works for me. However, sometimes, for whatever reason, the internet doesn't work. Most commonly, this is when the phone rings and makes my wireless die as we have a 2.4 GHz phone, but other things have caused this problem as well. So, after a while, firefox decides it's going to timeout all of the tabs that I have opened that were in the loading state. "Fine," I say, "I'll just wait til the internet is back and then reload the pages." So, the internet comes back, and I go to reload the page, and guess what. The fucking tabs only hold onto url's after the page has loaded. The url's not in the address bar until after the page loads. Well, fuck me in the goat ass. Whose fucking brilliant idea was that? And after TEN SEPARATE TIMEOUT POPUPS, now I have 10 tabs open and no url's in any of them. Half the time, I've moved on or closed the original tab. Just fucking great. Now I have to dig through my damn history, reopen the original document, scroll up and down the fucking page looking for what I had open, and do a rain dance and sacrifice whothefuckknows how many cows hoping it will work this time. Just put the damn url in the tab you peice of shit. Fuck. --=20 And then there was the lawyer that stepped in cow manure and thought he was melting... Want a gmail account? I've got invites galore.
