Hey Howard - thanks for the chat - was a real pleasure ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
boys are just chatting when other ones are dying of bordom... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
It is a slow night. I don't think I can afford to call you and chat. Sorry Lonkero. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
hoby, not so big deal... I'm playing with the new shiny K-form(s) 2.1 sadly that the script I'm trying it on has to run for 30min before I know is there a bug or not... and, now there actually seems to be as the progressbar is not ingreasing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
KForms 2.1 - like the sounds of that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
and I like the smooth progress bar... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
how about the vertical progress bar ... given that a shot yet ? Tried the colornames thingy yet ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
my checker uses "navy blue"... bloody script. can't seem to get a simple script to work... eh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
another boring night... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
y y a a w w n n... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
americanos = boring ppl man, you are silent all the time. I just put up my last stable (1.3.2) build of checker and hey... you don't speak much, do ya? I quess my only company is this last beer... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Whew ! Glad I'm Canadian. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
No Canadian beer for me... I'm on call this week. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
well canadian! I have this picture of canadians. in it they are like the ppl in this country town Jyvaskyla I'm currently spending my life. friendly, kind, caring, forgiving, clean... all those too much. now as I think of it. I quess that's the reason I like being here. I'm the only rebellion and it makes me feel special   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
well les, I have the hotline for this week. and the "working day" starts in 4 hours... so, if there is bad luck, someone calls me just 8:01 am that they have emergency, where am I... if not, I got good lazy day coming.   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Well... I guess I'm lucky then... On weekdays I only have the hotline after-hours, from 4:00pm to 7:30am. If they call at 8:01, they get the regular HelpDesk. If they call at 7:01, I have 20 minutes to respond (not fix, just show up with a pulse) and by then they get the regular HelpDesk. It's the weekend that's a bummer. Especially this one 'cause it's a long weekend for us Canadians (Turkey Day) Monday's off for office staff but I'm on call. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Don't forget that the IN><OUT is closed Monday! You'll have to get an extra MooseHead twofour Saturday in case the inlaws show up for the turkey shoot. [ 09. October 2002, 14:30: Message edited by: Waltz ] |

Sorry for being too boring ... Were too busy causing trouble at home and abroad. Hard for us to sit by and not have someone to bully on the International scene |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
well, after all what you can expect from a land that does produce ppl like barbra streissand? {edit} doc, it would be nice if you caused something, but it seems that best americans can do on a normal basis is talk a lot of causing trouble... maybe it just is that your troubles about troubles are so internal, I can't see them...

Unlike Jooel, I keep a ready supply on hand. Inlaws are in a different province anyway (Southern Ontario) so no chance they'll show. Besides... I'm on call... can't drink so nobody else will either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
yes - the two biggest provinces in canada - northern ontario and southern ontario [ 09. October 2002, 03:25: Message edited by: Shawn ] |

|
|
|||||||
Silly me... I thought only the brain surgeons and the airline pilots didn't drink while on duty |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yeah! We've got a few bones to pick with those Easterners. They drive up our Hydro rates, tax us to death on road taxes (ever drive our NWO roads?) and turn our hunting and fishing into rich-man sports with freaking permits. They even try to make me get a permit to cut down a freaking tree! Yeah right... And if that's not enough, they went and outlawed studded tires. Something about wearing out our roads (gravel)??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
well, the last thing they are planning to do here too.   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Shawn, Les seems to now recognize that we have at least 3 provinces - Northern Ontario, Southern Ontario & Eastern Ontario. And we say Americans are insular. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
rofl - well - just for the record - i'm not from Toronto ... i'm from Brampton ... which isn't Toronto. I may WORK in Toronto ... but I'm not FROM Toronto. In fact, Brampton is WEST of Toronto ... you might say its in the province of Western Ontario. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Glad we settled that point |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
To clarify this whole North West South East thing, I'm from NorthWest Ontario (NWO). It is designated by drawing a line due North at Sault Ste. Marie. Anyone East of there are Easterners. As for South of me, a couple of kliks and I'm in the US of A. In Southern Ontario, they consider North Bay to be Northern Ontario (not to be confused with NWO). Actually, I think many there consider Barrie as Northern Ontario. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
huh... why split up the country in those peaces? it's like you have massive gang fights there and only topic in those is that in which imagined area some tree is... canadians. I bet you dudes have watched some southpark, haven't you?   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
We were making in-jokes. While Canada has 10 provinces, Ontario is physically, economically & population wise just over a 1/3 of the country. Many Canadians outside of Ontario seem to feel we are pampered know-it-alls who dictate how the rest of the country is run. Also, in Ontario, half the population of the province lives in 1 city - Toronto. So you can imagine non-Torontonians opinion of Toronto. Les is just expressing the typical Canadian angst against Central Ontario & Shawn is distancing himself from the evil city that we all love to hate. Beware this is my opinion only - Shawn, Les, & other Canadians might offer a different spin. PS: Yes, I have watched SouthPark & I thought it had a Canadian type of humour even if it is Americian.

Wazzup guys? still new here, and came accross this thing. So this is where the cracks hang out after hours? Not sure if a rookie like me is allowed to speak in here, but i guess i'll find out pretty soon. I've noticed that only three nationalities are represented here, Finland, USA and Canada...How come? Well I'm from Amsterdam in the Netherlands, Hi! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
brian, I quess it's about high-tech... hi-tech has reached finland, then usa and finally even canada... now seems that other europeans are coming along too. anyway, it's good to have you here, as afterall, you are from the country where our server lies... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Hi Brian - good to have you on the board ! Hows your script coming along ? Hey - isn't Octoberfest starting soon ? -Shawn |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
huh, doc just left couple of hours ago and now shawn is here... dudes, do you never sleep I remember when I were young... {edit} btw, do you have this huge fuzz about BugBear? here every firm is calling each other that hey your e-mail messed up our system... heh, I got one call that from this and this address from your net came this virus. It was glad to say: "sorry buddy, we do not have that domainname anymore. nor we have such employee." I love the panic.   [ 11. October 2002, 13:40: Message edited by: Lonkero ] |

Brian, Another dutch man is also on board. Now there are two!!! Huggie Buggie bear not seen here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
No huggie buggie bears here just the real ones. You know... the kind that rip into you garbage cans. Damn... touched another nerve... them Easterners banned the spring bear hunt... now we're overrun with nuisance bears. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Brian: You can put me on your list, too, since I can add the German nationality to it. However, since I am in the US, does that mean I count for two? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
just came to mind, U-96 (the uncut version) came from tv on wednesday... nice utopistic movie... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Jens, That'd depend on whether you retain German nationality. If on the other hand, it is based on place of birth, then I will sport the Hungarian flag. [ 11. October 2002, 16:30: Message edited by: LLigetfa ] |
||||||||

|
|||||||
If not Jens, then me ! Any Martians out there ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yeah, I still have the German nationality. And since I am not eligible to be elected American President I am not sure whether I should aim for US Citizenship. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
no, you should not. you should protest.   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
bumb... this topic is best in descriping the feelings currrently... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Jooel, I think you're starting to slurrrr yourrr speach. How many beers? Well, can't stick around for the answer... my work day is done and I have a HoneyDo shopping list to fill... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
no beer tonight... the girlie is late so have to comfort myself with vodka... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Cheers guys, just finished a cold Red Bull... Not may people on board now are there... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
mmm... it's been silent day. "Total Active Topics: 14" total post count 20 (not my posts included) this take covers last 23h30m dunno, everyone seems to be somewhere out there... btw, it seems that the blowup we had in helsinki is just a job of an 18 years old student who killed himself in the explosion...   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yugh, There were also 3 explosions on Bali... +/- 30 people dead At least one was a home-made bomb... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
mmm... this was home made too... only 7 died (from the approx. 2000 in the mall at the time) dunno, weirdly... I feel pretty confused as it does not make me feel anything and then see ppl on the tv crying all the time... ministers, president and such are "griefing"...   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Jooel, just PM'ed you back... |
||||||||

did you? {edit} so did I... [ 13. October 2002, 14:17: Message edited by: Lonkero ] |

patrick, the slider on checker 1.3.2 seems to crash from time to time the whole script... when used with 4.12b and forms 2.1   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Just tried your latest checker, got a script error: error in expression! $hl[$]=$m.listview(,2,2,426,170) $hl[$].hide No time to figure it out now, maybe later tonight... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
dunno, someone said the same. only reason for that is that forms 2.1 isn't installed. the code is just the same on that part as on the older codes. only difference is that I use listview not listbox. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
checked the dll and the exes, now got the following: Script error: unknown or unexpected command []! $btl.caption=$[0] ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Don't know what happened, but now the checker started with no problems. Didn't change a thing!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
jep. that is the problem. what comes to syntax, the script is fine. only question is, which one keeps the bug inside. kixforms or wkix32. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Maybe it's the data returned from the xmlhttp thingie? This could explain the crashing checker with various objects... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Slider test... Previous post didn't pop it up!!! {edit} Ignore... ";" is a comment line isn't it? [ 13. October 2002, 20:55: Message edited by: MightyR1 ] |
||||||||

|

heh, very likely I quess I'll crack this investor before I'll be back on checker code. anyway, it seems that it's not able to make it trustable so the new fantastic exchaustive code may not come to live... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
You're last post popped my slider 3 times and then crashed the checker... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
My post popped it 7 times then a dos box appeared with "20" in it and an error "error in expression". Think I'll go back to 1.3.5.... [ 13. October 2002, 21:26: Message edited by: MightyR1 ] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
that's why I disabled it also, with that disabled, the checker may run even 10 hours before crash but it will crash anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Disabled it too... will take a look at it tomorrow. Have to go now. As Schwarzenegger said: I'll be back! [ 13. October 2002, 21:41: Message edited by: MightyR1 ] |

Hi all... Lonkero: I guess Finland is ahead because they are in the "latest" timezone... Shawn: Script is coming along nicely, however i'm still in need of help, so I'll continue to bother you all a lot. By the way... yes Octoberfest is coming, but as Jens can comfirm this, Octoberfest is held in Germany, not in Holland ;-) MightyR1: Hee gozer, hoe gaat het met je? Where in Holland are you from? Jens: If a guy like George Double-U get get elected... why not a German American Younster? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
BrianK, I'm fine and live in Goes, Zeeland. Working at the courthouse in Middelburg... Jooel, didn't find a solution to the slider bug yet... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Brian: The reason that I for example cannot get elected POTUS is, that only American Aitizens that were born inside the territory of the Unityed States are eligible. So, even if an American Citizen bears a child outside the US territories but the child is an American Citizen, it will not be able to qualify. That is actually onbe of the reasons why Arnold Schwarzenegger cannot run for Presidency but for Governor of California (if he really goes forward with that one). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
AHA, thanx for clearing that up for me Jens. So tell me, why are you in the States, is it for work or study, or none of the above? Who wants to be president anyway? B. MightyR1: Do you have collegues named Peter or Paulus? Greetz, Brian |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Peters yes, lastnames? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Patrick, his name would be Peter Toussaint, and he used ro play in a band... does it ring a bell? Brian. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
boys, I've had this question in my head... if I take connection to poland it seems to always go via US. do you have there direct connections to sweden or britain or are our connections also linked in US?   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Lonkero, i'll look in to the Schiphol Schedule in Amsterdam... I'll get back on it as soon as I can. Do you have a specific destination in Poland? Brian |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
subsidiary is in warsaw... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Lonkero, I did some checking, and there are flights going and coming from Warsaw. So all you have to check is if there are flights going to Schiphol, Amsterdam. You can book your ticket online at the following site: KLM Booking page Price for a roundtrip is about €380,- including taxes. Flighttime from Amsterdam is about 2 hours. I hope you can do something with this info... Good luck. Brian |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
brian, I quessed already at your last reply that you didn't get my word "connection". I'm not flying anywhere as no-one pays my tickets talking about simple network transfers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
HAHAHAHAHAHA... In that case Lonkero, I don't have the answer for you... (since I'm not buying your tickets either ) Maybe you should move to a more sofisticated or technically more advanced area. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
eh, is there any "more" anything than finland? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yep there is... There's a whole new world waiting out there for you... Spread your wings and fly... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
my wings don't take me anywhere but from roof to the ground. and that flight can wait... anyway, I'll flight once there is something with which I can pay the flight. meaning, once someone pays for it. with 50% taxes on my salary I won't use it on flights just for fun. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Brian: With regards to why I'm in the States. The final answer is: ALL of the above. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
this thread is again needed. ah, and my food is ready... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
just stood here in my bedroom and received a message from somewhere. it said: "where is MCA" wasn't his vacation supposed to end by this very day? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I was thinking the same thing the other day when I hyjacked his script on the open BB. Kent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
anyway, clock is ticking at 08:43 which means that night is over for me. it also means that I'm going to take a little nap before going to work... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
What was that again. Lonkero?? He who never sleeps...? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
yeah, I quess I'm getting old...   |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
So what is a slow night. For some guys it is now night and for other it is in the middle of the day. In our language the definition of night is the time between sunset and sunrise. The quickest time period is 06:00-08:59 European Time in the morning. greetings. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
quickiest? I thought slowest. are you talking now board reactions or your personal life? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I can attest to the fact that it is indeed a slow night. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Already twenty issues on the "Today's Active List" can't mean it is a slow night. Only we doesn't see much new questions. Only some small discussions. greetings. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
mmm... 3 by others than me and MCA... can't say that it's been busy either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
But what are thos 56 guests doing. Possible they can change something to it. greetings. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I may have something to do with that count... have been developing the requested search engine for bb. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
btw: at this moment we had the best response fromt the kixtart.org server. During the busiest period 15:00-17:59 European Time we had nearly an acceptable performance. What are your experiences with it? Our network connection of 10 Mb can be a bottle-neck. greetings. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
well, I've seen it lagging between 12-19 (GMT) really badly. no matter the net speed. at home have 100M and at work shared 1M. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
So for the stayers it is now the right moment to be active. greetings. |

So for the stayers it is now the right moment to be active. specially when are tyring to develop something based on this board. greetings. |
