Post by: Akisohida on July 29, 2006, 09:57:15 AM
Whelp, today or tomorrow I am finishing moving into my apartment  :help ^.^ The downside is that, while I get my Verizon internet kit on Monday, the internet will not be turned on untill Thursday.  :< This could be this spider-taurs last post untill Thursday, Aug 3rd.  :mowsad

Having just been through all that (moved into new place 3rd july, internet turned on on the 10th, but couldn't access it until the 24th or so due to the new internet not liking my old dsl modem...) you have my sympathies.

And I'll be watching for your return :-)

Oooo. Subtle. :-)

(In all honesty, it's probably the best way to get your point across, tho :-)

Yeah, I call conspiracy. What's with the "Nothing, or nothing you can see" portion of the who's online lurker grab-bag?

What?

The "Who's Online" section lets you peep on the actions of others, and it gives bored lurkers something to do while waiting for someone to post. Oftentimes admins will have their actions described as italicized above. It isn't a catch-all, "I'm the admin, you can't see anything I do" thing either, because we can see your normal actions just fine.

So just what does that mean? Admin panel? Or perhaps something more sinister!

That's really cool. Lets me get in touch with my inner NSA employee.

Well, I have no idea.  It's not like I can check it :p

Sure you can. All you have to do is create a new account and play with that. :-)

... admittedly that looks a lot like work, so... :-)

well, if I log myself out to check it, then I can't really see what I'm doing, now can I?

And I do have a regular user account.  ;)

Firefox + IE? Two machines? There's ways around this... Heck, vmware player and borrow a machine image, or use a linux image...

This is probably too much effort for attempting to watch yourself watching yourself, isn't it? :-)

Post by: Damaris on August 02, 2006, 10:12:07 AM
IE? *hisses*

eeevil

True. I mean, if it was me, I'd be using Firefox and Ephiphany and lynx and links and links2, just to see what happens. I suspect that at least some of those will have trouble with some of the page code...

I could also use three or four different machines, as well.


But that'd be cheating :-)
