I don't know about anyone else, but ever since UV got added to the page, page load completion time has gone way up for me (and since GM doesn't kick in until all page js does, it's blocking MB GM scripts). Esp given http://blog.uservoice.com/ , is it possible that the UV js could be MB-hosted, rather than hosting off cdn.uservoice.com?

brianfreud: I've had trouble with it, but it was more to do with the js that's in the mb page (since I can't block that, and something I did when I tried to block the external js made the page never stop loading)

brianfreud
well, their server is awfully slow when it's working, and twice in two weeks, it hasn't even been working - so pages never finish loading, MB-site-wide ... which means no GM scripts work either atm :(

it's the Google analytics problem, but on a flakey server, so worse

nikki goes wtf at warp's link

the street view thing refreshes every second, so I can't see anything o_O
2009-11-10 31436, 2009
nikki
not even every second, as soon as it loads, it reloads o_O
2009-11-10 31440, 2009
warp
nikki: oh, then my redirect isn't working.
2009-11-10 31434, 2009
nikki
brianfreud: the easiest thing would be to scrap the js altogether and just have a link to uv
2009-11-10 31454, 2009
brianfreud
that'd be fine with me :D
2009-11-10 31458, 2009
warp
nikki: better?
2009-11-10 31419, 2009
brianfreud
only time I ever click that thing, it's accidentally - just really annoying to have it killing page loading, esp since I can't even turn it off
2009-11-10 31425, 2009
nikki
nope :/
2009-11-10 31435, 2009
nikki blames google
2009-11-10 31459, 2009
warp
nikki: it's just regular html now, make sure your browser didn't cache my previous file
2009-11-10 31412, 2009
brianfreud
and it's not caching, however it's being inserted, so every single pageload means redownloading it (and ++ bytes == ++ $$ here, now, since they've begun bandwidth tiers)
2009-11-10 31440, 2009
nikki
still no luck
2009-11-10 31453, 2009
nikki
it's fine until it loads the street view, then it goes crazy
2009-11-10 31456, 2009
warp
nikki: oh, i just re-read what you said.. that does sound like a google problem.
so much for that idea then... the only other thing I can think of atm is to block that entire domain in your hosts file, but when I tried that, it made the problem worse, not better... hence why I ended up using opera's lovely ability to block particular files :P
2009-11-10 31457, 2009
brianfreud
yeah, only "solution" I've found is to entirely block UV using NoScript

I always thought tht the biggest pain to packaging Picard was making it a Universal binary that worked on 10.4 upwards.

using macports just made my life easier

in fact, all i have to do is just build picard...
2009-11-10 31436, 2009

then figure out how to make an app
2009-11-10 31441, 2009

then a pkg
2009-11-10 31446, 2009

then a dmg

aCiD2: use lib "$FindBin::Bin/../lib";
2009-11-10 31432, 2009
warp
aCiD2: er, that was sort of what I was looking for, yes. but using slashes and '..' like that doesn't seem portable.
2009-11-10 31458, 2009
aCiD2
it's the normal way it's done :)
2009-11-10 31410, 2009
aCiD2
then you leave it up to "lib" to make the path portable
2009-11-10 31410, 2009
warp
aCiD2: but looking into that a bit more I found 'use FindBin::libs', which does exactly what I need in this case.

ah cool

yep. perl is clever enough to do the right thing on windows.
2009-11-10 31445, 2009

aCiD2: oh, really? the "$FindBin::Bin/../lib" is portable?

ok, FindBin::Bin is always available if I understand correctly, whereas FindBin::libs isn't. so if the first is portable, that definitely is the best way.

none of this is important btw, it's just some test files ;)
