Hi guys and gals!
#firstworldproblem
So, i did something really stupid today. I activated Facebook's new layout "Timeline" (this) and i regret doing it. Every single stupid status update and everything else is just popping up in the timeline, and i do NOT like it. I started deleting some of them, but after 10 minutes i realized that i've written too many updates through the years. I can't delete them all. It will take 17 years.
So i thought that the solution would maybe be to delete my profile and start fresh. I'll "lose" all my friends and stuff, and i'll probably use more time adding them back then deleting my past statuses.
What do you guys think i should do?

Isn't that your answer right there?
Eh.. well.. uh.. yeah I've decided to not delete it. I've used quite some time deleting stuff now, and i'm almost done! 4 months left in 2007, so i guess it'll take 20 minutes or so..
Kill me. Now.
And this is why Facebook sucks.
Everyone should delete their Facebook.

Yes, Facebook is bad, anything you say on there, is always going to be there, hell Facebook knows more about you than YOU know about you. Just sayin.
Yup. I want to quit the whole thing, but then i'll be an anti social guy (online) who doesn't know "what's up".
But i won't do anything about it right now. I update my status like once a month, and i'm only checking the news feed once a day.

Have you seen the videos by anonymous? Facebook is the worst. And they aren't gonna have it.

I gotta say, I quite like it. There's nothing on there that wasn't available to my friends anyway so it's just a layout change. Nothing's more or less public than it already way.
Also, Facebook is changing to this Timeline view regardless. You don't have a choice whether to use it or not.
Good thing Facebook knows I work at Hershey park as a fudge packer and is a graduate at burgerking university.
Yes, Facebook is inherently evil.
-We do what we must because we can; for the good of all of us, except the ones who are dead-
Actually I activated the time line and I like it, but anyway, I suggest that you kill your facebook account if you have nothing to lose..
I like the timeline as well. A positive change, which is weird in regards to facebook. All the statuses we're available in the old layout as well, so this just changes the look. It was just as easy to find the status updates before.
No, it's much easier and faster to find the idiotic posts now! I've used two hours browsing and deleting

I've been using the "Timeline" feature for the past 3 months. First I felt it too buggy. But now, I'm used to it (realizing there's no way to go back to old profile interface)
Also, they've messed up the chat lists.

does anyone know if theres a freeware app for tracking menstrual cycles? just thought of tracking my girlfriends...
Step 1. make an entry in your calender for the last week and a half of every month.
Step 2. Anytime you see your wife/gf turn your body 180 degrees and walk the other way.
haha..but seriously
Use your calendar and reference this picture.
EASY.
http://www.fhi.org/pic/mencycle.gif
Bloody hell..
Good grief, don't you have any better things to do with your time than track your girlfriend's period???????????????
Find it
I find this cab, but I haven't tested yet … Give me a feed back if it's OK.
Hmm.
A Today Plug-in that makes your Kaiser moody and unresponsive one week out of every four. I dunno- the HTC drivers do a pretty good job of that already.
*amused*
Just told the g/f about this, and she looked at me with pure disgust

I'd just like to make a Grammar Statement.
If indeed you did mean to type "girlfriends" which is plural, and means more than one, than I can see why you'd want to track it.
But If you mean you wanted to track the cycle that belongs to your girlfriend, you need to type "girlfriend's." The apostrophe makes it possessive.

well big lol
that prog of yours works the same like a calendar. only thing is when youre pushing like oct. 1 you will get a menu screen, which allows you the option to select in what period the girl is in, like dry,slightbleeding etc.
also you can select whether you can have sex with ur gf or not, or when do you need protection, or if she got cramps all sorts of stuff pretty funny actually^^ great find maybe im gonna buy it^^
First of all, Bloody hell is right
Secondly, LOL @ Girlfriends vs Girlfriend's
Third, WOW, it was odd enough that someone asked about that kind of software, but that someone else made it, thats just TFF.
I checked it out, pretty cool, even allows you to check off a day when she is PMSing (Which is just about every day)
But I think your gf would start wondering what was going on if you were taking her temp and giving her a mini-physical every day.
get the pill. i think its worth it. yasmine, recommended by doc with least side effects. PHP 680. there are cheaper but I'd rather not risk my wife's health.
I also tried to find an app but mostly not free.
>>oh yeah, I didn't know I'd be giving medical advice on xda devs.
There is a free app like this called My Girls. I think it's just java.
A straight answer pls
I understand this dudes pain. It sucks NOT KNOWING. Also.... if your trusting your wife/girlfriend then wtf are you thinking trusting a woman LOL. JK. Well personally I would like to see an app for this because i keep track with desktop software lol. Also.... can you guys pls not correct my grammar.... that's just ridiculous. Now....im gonna go buy a boxen of donuts ttyl.
man you mean this sort of thing doesnt happen every week?
Maybe I should keep track
for a moment i had this really crazy idea that women may visit this forum !!!
why not just ask ?, i can understand if your trying for a baby, remember some are irregular

Yeah what happened to Cyanogen sucks, but I wish everyone would stop acting so childish about it. He was wrong. End of story. Move on with life. It's not like it's really that difficult to get the things back in anyway.
I've been judging apps for this all day. Come by a few good ones but most are not that original really. I've been checking the ADC2 website every day waiting for them to announce the judging app release. Can't believe it's out and they didn't even post it on there.

This perversion of the popular axiom irritates the hell out of me too.
Anyway, has anyone actually been issued any decent apps for review? I saw an ADC2 version of Spreadsheet and that's about it. Kinda disappointed in the deluge of kinda 'meh' apps.
Let's keep this thread on topic.
Both of you look slow, because I SAID I could care less, and I MEANT what I said. Never said I wasn't going to compete.

I uninstalled it after a few days. Nothing good came across. Extremely disappointing. That seems to be the trend this week.
I got Ping2Locate, which was kind of cool but not really original. That's the best of what I received so far. There was a book library but the scanner just continually took pictures until it found a bar code rather than waiting until one was present in the way BCScanner & ShopSavvy do.
Then there was the endless stream of crap.
One of the most pointless I got was this "unique new media interface". Sounded exciting. It actually turned out to be almost insulting, considering the prize money on offer. It was 4 images taking up a quater of the screen each. One was a season. Pressing changed the image to represent a different season. Another one (I can't even remember what the image was) began to play music and spin the images around. The other two were labelled "M" and "V" which just looked on your SD card for music or video.
Seems like I would have had a good chance at winning if I'd just submitted Hello World.
I guess now I know why they never bothered to announce on the ADC2 site that the judging app was available...

I run PrankDialer.com, and have an app in the ADC2 running right now - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rFJDnXw4Ew
Yeah, I was using it since sunday, hoping that I'd be able to try some really exciting apps.
Instead I got loads of junk apps, games, even one who's description was 'create user table'. I'm hoping that in the later rounds that they will have been filtered out.
Have you all noticed that Facebook, twitter, and other networks try to take over the world? Facebook in skyfire now, facebook is everywhere with "like" buttons, Social Networks are forced by freaking Motoblur, people reporting each their step: "I just ate Icecream!" "I just saw some weird dude." "People what to do? I got a ticket!"
Get your butt out of the computer/cellphone and go to the beach watch a sunset! Let your brain free for at least a moment!
While checking email in the morning, I see hundreds of posts from people about what they did on a hourly basis.
So pathetic. After all this I really want to delete facebook and add it to all possible filters.
What is your opinion of such invasion and zombification?
I say xda is better than facebook...

I agree, but they are not taking over the world, they are taking over people who are stupid enough to think that facebook is their life.

I must confess i'm a twitter addict though (hopefully not in the: "i'm eating a sandwich kinda way")
It's only a fad. I remember the days when Friendster was cool and everyone was on it. Then came MySpace, and in that got canned with Facebook. Once FB floats, investors are gonna put a lot of pressure on the management to monetize their assets (users) and this is gonna push the engineers to their peak frustration. They'll start using codes that users hate, and sooner or later a new social network will start, and the cycle begins anew.

Im just getting really annoyed by facebook, twitter, and myspace stuff forced upon me. I install something, there yahoo toolbar forced, or facebook link.
I keep facebook just as an easy connection to friends, but not as my way of life. I go to facebook anytime and i see at least 10 of my friends sitting out there, where 9 out of these 10 post all what they did.
I also loved skyfire, but now its impossible to use it on my Magic at all. Instead of making that, they could have fixed video errors, that happen in 2 out of 3 videos. Plus there were no single movie that I could finish without an error.
Off topic: You guys should have seen the computer at my temporary workplace. It had 150 toolbars installed on IE, Starting from yahoo toolbar and ending with facebook toolbar. All kinds of notifiers and BS, forced on the noobs. Took me 2 hours to clean everything from it, including hundreds of viruses and bs.
It is clearly obvious that the goal of each social network is to capture people as many as possible. Alone I do not blame them. For the most part it is people's fault.
I was growing up in Ukraine, and a computer was something that we did once a month (if lucky enough). We did anything possible, from fishing to exploring... Were out from sunrise till sundown.
Even shared photos and proposed to girls in PERSON. Now people breaking up on freaking facebook, and seek a remedy for their problems...

Actually, it's turning the other way around. The big players were bouncing around the idea of charging users more if they go to popular sites like FB and Google.

Hi guys! If you remember, my app Screenshot ER was the first to work on honeycomb. If not, its in the signature.
Could all you lucky champs with 3.2 let me know if its still working please?
it works beautifully on 2.0.1 manta ray with kernel Tachi.
Still great job no matter what update for OS comes around
Cool. Are you using SER or SER 2?
1.0.8 that is
need root for this?
edit: never mind, just read your sig.
Yep... needs root. But if youre on this forum, you should know that restoring your device to vanilla is just as easy as rooting!
Works fine on Tiamat 2.1 (3.2 base).

Ive just checked (finally) and it works fine! Dunno why people are sending me error reports...
doesn't matter, 3.2 on Tiamat has screen shot app built in
Yep - but it sucks... this is a real screenshot app with cool features!
I'll pass, good luck
Whats your problem buddy? You just clocking up a post count with all those opinions?
Must be - im a dev here with lots of current threads and Ive only managed 1700 in the same time as you. And of course i spent most of that time making cool apps. You it seems were just trolling around because noone listens to you in the real world. ..

Sorry to disappoint but I do pay for apps on both my EVO 3D and Xoom. You said your app would ALWAYS be free to XDA members but went back on your word, that was bad enough. Now you're here spamming the forum, thats disgraceful. On the 2nd page is your last thread that was closed on Aug 4th, now you opened another thread the very next day which offers nothing that could have gone in the other thread? Oh yeah, and there's another thread in the Android Paid Apps section which was also closed.
I support devs verbally and through my wallet, but your behavior is pretty distasteful. I'm not looking for a fight, nor am I slamming your app, but I think the way you do business may hurt you more than freeloaders. Another factor may be people realize there are free apps that suit them just as well and don't have to worry about buying an app only to find it pulled from the market for some unexplained reason and have to get the other pay version.
Think of this as constructive criticism.

Because if I were to make it, it would probably be bland and mundane. Basically the app I mentioned earlier is kind of dynamic, the insults and stuff are randomly generated. With Zooper Widgets I would make one that would be basically the same all the time...
The app I am looking for is free, but it says it is incompatible to my Gear, and I don't know where I could just download it. Even if it were paid, I'd be willing to give an acceptable amount of money to own it, that wouldn't be a problem

Hey, I am the developer for the original Drunk O' Clock for Pebble. I have good news, I'll be releasing Drunk O' Clock for Android Wear before Christmas.
any updates on the app, will you keep us updated and tell us when it is released?
Sorry guys
Hey guys, really sorry about not getting this out for Christmas. Some family matters came up that have eaten up all of my time, but it's mostly over and I'll be able to work on it soon. Hopefully have it out in a week or two. Will keep you posted for sure
Back again
Hey again. I've gotten a little work done on Drunk O' Clock for Wear, but haven't gotten too far. I have 3 clients and it's exam time at my school so the only free time I really get is the 10 minutes before bed to read Cosmos. Of course I'll keep you guys posted but it might be another few weeks. I shouldn't be longer than the end of this month.
Sorry again. Thanks for being patient.
Actually working on it
Progress on Drunk O' Clock for Android has actually progressed. My friend Tarwinder has taken on the task and is progressing through it at quite a fast pace. You can keep track of the progress and try out new betas on our betas community: https://plus.google.com/communities/100705267662549485766
Thanks for the patience!
