(ecronin) yay! no more giving me the definition of 'the'
(W-) Uh, I just block all doubleclick traffic, solves that problem and many many more
(tkurc) didn't doubleclick get bought?
(ecronin) double-click the mouse action, not DoubleClick the sponsor of the CSE building
(ecronin) by Goooooooooooooooooooogle
(W-) Wha? Who double clicks text? Also, blocking all traffic from Google Ads is so pleasing.
(W-) Wait, where is double clicking used anywhere on the web?
(tkurc) flash games?
(W-) Even then, not real frequently
(ecronin) selecting text to paste in irk... isn't that why anybody reads the times?
(W-) So you double-click and select each word instead of click and drag? Huh, you deserve whatever hell this is you've found.
(ecronin) click and drag also has this feature. selecting anything == "please look this up in the dictionary"
(ecronin) so in conclusion, I should get all my news from fark headlines.
(W-) Provide a link to an article with this behavior
(ecronin) any article on nytimes.com
(tkurc) like this
(tkurc) worth it just for this image
(W-) I dunno, I'm not seeing it. But then again I block traffic from pretty much every advertiser there is.
(ecronin) yes, that is a fine choice.
(ecronin) but when I tripple-click to paste some of their fine lyrics I get http://query.nytimes.com/search/query?srchst=ref&query=code,%20and%20it's%20802,%22%20rap%20Colin%20Arisman&fw=3 instead
(tkurc) "The quiet streets and low crime rates of Vermont have worked their way into the hip-hop world, thanks to a rap video called “802,” made by three students at Montpelier High School."
(tkurc) I can paste-or
(tkurc) but cronin has a mac with only like 1 button. so unwarren
(tkurc) I'd like to see a warren versus steve jobs computer-use-off
(W-) Yeah I have 12 buttons and am not seeing this problem.
(ecronin) they like cheddar “extra sharp,” which they rhymed with “roof tarp” you hear that Wisconsin?!?
(W-) Too bad there's only a thousand or so sources to get news from
(ecronin) but none of them have breaking news on juvinile new england hip-hop groups
(W-) Two hits, bitch, two hits.
(tkurc)
(tkurc) spelling is unimportant for tommorrow's potatoe america
(ecronin) maybe I need double-click dictionary javascript for irc
(ecronin) I should use chatzilla
(dhelder) you can kill it with adblock too
