I saw your question on Statuses, but I couldn't answer it within the character limit.

If you use the browser extension Stylish (for Firefox, Opera, or Chrome), I have a link to a userstyle in my sig (Toned PMP + De-Cashify + De-Crapify ) that you can install for it. If you were previously using my Toned-down Promoted Post userstyle (I think you asked me about that before), you can just remove it and install this one.


holy hell, that was easy! eek thanks! biggrin

also, I think I"m getting used to this Chromebook. ninja it's growing on me.

No problem. It was kind of tough to get the Cash menu blocked, so there's no reason for me to keep all the CSS tricks to myself.

Chromebooks are easier to use than standard laptops because of its simplified interface and its reliance on Google services and web apps. It works out well for most people.


yeah, it's pretty handy. though there are things that I am upset it can't do because I need a Windows OS to do them...

If you don't mind me asking, what are those things?


mostly, I wanna play an MMO. xd I have my eyes on SW:TOR, and Grenado Espada Online plus I really miss DDO. and of course, there's L2.

there were other things, more important things, but at the moment I can't remember. I know that kills the credibility of "they are more important", but I am being honest.

oh, one of them was to use my Flash Drives, and another was to play my MP3 CDs.

Maaaan, I know that feel with MMOs. It's not just a Chromebook thing. emo

Probably using software like word processors, image editors, things like that.

Flash drives should work on a Chromebook as long as you have a compatible USB port and as long as your flash drive is just plug-n-play, but CDs will never work (no built-in reader, external readers don't work).

Use your file manager to look for the flash drive's mount point (it'll be a folder or symlink of some kind) and you should find its contents.

for some reason, the files on my flash drive won't open. they say they aren't compatible, but I've opened PDF files on this computer that weren't on the flash drive.

I did a quick look at PDF viewers. Supposedly there's Adobe Acrobat for Chromebooks (I can't find it though), and there's also Notable PDF, an app that claims to work with files on the hard drive, and has annotation stuff.

anyway, how can I thankyou for being such an awesome person?

Yeah, the privileges thing is annoying (same deal on Android), but at least you're notified of them.
On thanks: You don't need to do anything, lol. You're doing me a favor already by spreading the word about the no-cash userstyle.

Right now I'm tweaking the layout of the currently broken Firefox BetterGaia for somebody so it's halfway useable (I really hope I get comp'd for it like he promised). I'd be pulling my hair out at how fugly it is, but I don't have any hair to pull lol

this is why I think promises of trade/compensation should be contractual. that way if they don't follow through you can slap a lawsuit on their asses. but that's me being my usual Labour-centric self. Anarcho-Syndicalism FTW!

anyway, I still feel like you deserve something. I'll probably write you something awesome as thanks. people like fine art, right?

Labor: I'm with you on that, but it's hard to enforce on Gaia and I'm not that fussed about it.

He asked for a load of other s**t in a PM, but I basically told him off (because he expected CSS to be some computer voodoo magic that can add new dropdown menus and stuff to a page) and I showed him why it doesn't work (it's a markup language that only changes how things look).

Writing: Huh, I wonder what it'll be...

(Actually, there was some talk of guild fanfiction or at least non-canon short stories, but that hadn't gotten off the ground yet. Maybe that could be a thing later, when the RP picks up for real.)

I usually am surprised by what all that computer coding stuff can do, more than what it can't. xd I guess I'm not very imaginative.

and yeah, I don't do fanfiction. but short stories are a thing I'm totally great at. smile when I get a good feel for how Maerua or Sabe are as characters in the revamp I may give something like that a whack. otherwise, I'll probably stick to some sort of Poem.

There's tons of different languages, and different types of languages for a reason, some do things here or there that others won't. It's futile to make something that 'does it all' (why re-invent the wheel?) for everything (also impractical).

What I meant by 'fanfiction' was 'short stories set in an already established universe', anyway. Not to be confused with the poorly-written drivel you'd find on certain other websites. ninja

(Technically our entire RP is fanfiction of Gaia's universe, with OCs and some original stuff tacked on.)

To think of our RP like it's one big fanfiction is just. . . [Makes the motion of my mind being blown, as well as making the sound effects with my mouth]
It's amazing to me, in other words.
