Re: What distros are you using?

Fedora 19 with i3. I switched from Linux Mint because apt breaking so often was annoying me and ventured into the world of less user friendly stuff.

Summer spins missing parted?

Looks like parted isn't installed on the system, so bbqinstaller's parted option doesn't work.

Is that intentional?

Re: i3situation - alternative to i3status

Thanks for this wei2912 (great avatar by the way!), I thought I'd bloat a bit my i3 set-up so I gave it a try. I couldn't change the time format without getting an error though so I am back to a bar-free i3 but I might give this another try later. I followed the instructions on the source page so I...

Re: bbqshift

I modified this script to have limits to the gamma passed to xrandr, so that we won't get unexpected behaviour. Also did some refactoring. Note that the limits are exclusive (that means if you set MIN to 0, you can't set the gamma to 0 or below, and likewise for MAX). #!/bin/bash RR=1 GG=1 BB=1 LL=1...

Seems like a case statement would be a better choice.

Great idea though, I never thought it could be done

Re: Random Password generator, with real words.

My method is to think of a humorous sentence, capitalize the words to be emphasized, take the front letters of each word + punctuation and use that to come up with a password. This sentence doesn't really make sense but it's used to generate a password so I guess it makes more sense than most people...
