| 17:03 | <&[R]> | OMFG, who thought MacOS X's Console was a good idea |
| 17:03 | <&[R]> | I want to read stuff, how do I make it pause? TT |
| 17:03 | <&jerith> | It gets worse every OS version. |
| 17:04 | <&jerith> | But all it's really doing (AFAIK) is tailing a bunch of logfiles. |
| 17:04 | <&[R]> | Which makes it useless |
| 17:04 | <&[R]> | I can't read anything because it's constantly scrolling |
| 20:06 | <@abudhabi> | What's the terminal command to run one of the display config apps? |
| 20:07 | <@abudhabi> | In Mint 19? |
| 20:07 | <@abudhabi> | I tried to run MoO1 with default GOG settings, it of course fullscreened, and on exiting fucked my monitor settings. |
| 20:07 | <@abudhabi> | I don't even see my main menu button. |
| 20:11 | <&[R]> | Display config? |
| 20:11 | <&[R]> | xrandr? |
| 20:12 | <@abudhabi> | No, not that thing. |
| 20:12 | <@abudhabi> | I want the GUI thing. |
| 20:14 | <@abudhabi> | It's just called "Display" but I don't know what its command is. |
| 20:15 | <@abudhabi> | `display` does something different. |
| 20:16 | <&ToxicFrog> | What desktop environment? |
| 20:17 | <&ToxicFrog> | If KDE, you want `systemsettings5` |
| 20:17 | <&ToxicFrog> | That said, xrandr is also a valid option; try `xrandr` to see what port your monitor is connected to, and then `xrandr --output <name of port> --mode WxH` |
| 20:18 | <@abudhabi> | Cinnamon. |
| 20:21 | <@abudhabi> | OK, that certainly helped! |
| 20:22 | <@abudhabi> | Thanks! |
| 20:23 | <@abudhabi> | I was able to get my main menu back and find the requisite GUI tool to fully fix things. |
| 20:28 | <@abudhabi> | FWIW, the tool is `cinnamon-settings display`. |
| 21:41 | < Kizor> | I was figuring out the workings of a program that didn't come with a lot of documentation, and found I could glean a lot of info by skimming it and noticing which sections have GOTOs to which sections. |
| 21:41 | < Kizor> | This is not a very useful lesson. >.> |
| 21:43 | <~Vornicus> | Use The Source, Luke? |

| 23:05 | <&[R]> | <noobb> c++ - What does it mean to send in a string to a function in the following manner func(&string[0]) |
| 23:05 | <&[R]> | ^ I almost want to say nothing, but I suspect that might be wrong. |
| 23:07 | <&McMartin> | He said C++, so the question must be asked: when he says "string" does he mean "char *" or does he mean "std::string" |
| 23:08 | <&McMartin> | If the former: that is a no-op |
| 23:08 | <&McMartin> | If the latter: that is nonsense and he should be calling c_str() and ensuring the pointer value is not preserved by func |
| 23:09 | <&[R]> | Ah yeah |
