01:03:01 *** Aexis_Rai (6c320407@gateway/web/freenode/ip.108.50.4.7) has joined #portableapps
01:04:27 <Aexis_Rai> Hi, I have a few questions about the Portable Apps Platform
01:04:53 <vf2nsr> such as?
01:04:53 <Aexis_Rai> 1. Can I change the drive letter and name of the drive the platform is installed on and all the apps will still be working?
01:05:05 <vf2nsr> is it on usb?
01:05:17 <Aexis_Rai> Yes, PNY Attache 32GB formatted FAT32
01:05:44 <vf2nsr> then it will automatically change drive letters
01:05:53 <vf2nsr> depending on th ecomputer you are plugged into
01:06:02 <Aexis_Rai> Ok
01:06:45 <vf2nsr> all apps should qwork fine
01:06:50 <Aexis_Rai> 2. Do you intend, in the future, to put up a set of similar Mac-compatible portable apps?
01:06:52 <vf2nsr> as the platform handles the drive change
01:07:13 <vf2nsr> not to my knowledge since this is a windows based app
01:07:15 <Aexis_Rai> I know there's a reference link to this one site that has mac portable apps
01:07:18 <Aexis_Rai> Ah
01:08:00 <Aexis_Rai> This one specifically
01:08:01 <Aexis_Rai> http://www.freesmug.org/portableapps/
01:08:10 <Aexis_Rai> Portableapps refers to that site
01:08:16 <vf2nsr> well I have n o idea since PortableApps is windows based
01:08:38 <vf2nsr> that may be a link in a forum post
01:08:44 <vf2nsr> but we do not support other sitres
01:08:48 <vf2nsr> or other platforms
01:08:50 <Aexis_Rai> oh
01:09:40 <Aexis_Rai> Are you guys with the pluses just channel ops or does that also denote that you're actually from Rare Ideas LLC?
01:10:11 <vf2nsr> I am a developer of Apps for PortableApps.com
01:10:45 <vf2nsr> http://portableapps.com/node/30620 here is alist of my apps
01:10:57 <vf2nsr> although I just release 3 more in beta
01:11:39 <Aexis_Rai> Made entirely yourself or just contributing?
01:11:57 <vf2nsr> I develop and make portable other apps
01:12:17 <vf2nsr> That is what most develoeprs do we do have a few actual programmers though
01:12:30 <Aexis_Rai> ah
01:12:30 <vf2nsr> who create and maintain their own apps
01:13:53 <Aexis_Rai> I was going to ask if you guys were aware of the slow performance of Firefox Portable
01:14:01 <Aexis_Rai> but you personally would probably not know
01:14:27 <Aexis_Rai> The Iron browser works pretty well
01:14:47 <vf2nsr> oh I use ff and notice no slowness between portable and installed
01:15:03 <Aexis_Rai> Hm.
01:15:12 <Aexis_Rai> Maybe it just needs an update...
01:15:15 <vf2nsr> John Haller is the FF Portable guy
01:15:19 <Aexis_Rai> ah
01:15:24 <vf2nsr> what build are you on?
01:15:29 <Aexis_Rai> That's the guy cited on the wikipedia page
01:15:38 <Aexis_Rai> build of PortableApps or Firefox?
01:15:41 <vf2nsr> Yes he is the ehad honcho
01:15:45 <vf2nsr> FF
01:16:08 <vf2nsr> he has a deal with Mozilla as the only official protable developer of FF
01:16:14 <Aexis_Rai> nice
01:16:37 <vf2nsr> 1.0.1 I believe is the current build of FF
01:16:56 <vf2nsr> sorry 11.0
01:17:06 <vf2nsr> 11.0.1 is for Thunderbird
01:17:15 <Aexis_Rai> I'm not sure of how to check that on the portable version without starting it up
01:17:32 <Aexis_Rai> check the build, that is
01:17:32 <vf2nsr> you using the platform?
01:17:46 <vf2nsr> is that runnoing?
01:17:49 <vf2nsr> running
01:18:02 <Aexis_Rai> Currently I am chatting with you through the web chat of my computer-installed Firefox
01:18:09 <vf2nsr> ah ok
01:18:10 <Aexis_Rai> But the platform is running
01:18:24 <vf2nsr> ok then mouse over the Firefox
01:18:32 <vf2nsr> and a display window should pop up
01:18:37 <vf2nsr> telling you th einfo
01:18:50 <Aexis_Rai> Says 11.0
01:18:59 <vf2nsr> that is the updated one
01:19:13 <vf2nsr> if there is some slowness might want to report it in th eforums
01:19:17 <Aexis_Rai> I'll brb then, and see how it works
01:19:21 <vf2nsr> ok
01:19:33 <Aexis_Rai> You're very helpful, by the way, thanks
01:19:43 <vf2nsr> yqw
01:20:00 <vf2nsr> just sitting here finishing up a few projects :)

02:02:26 <Aexis_Rai> Yeah, that took longer than I thought
02:02:54 <vf2nsr> was wondering what happened
02:03:07 <Aexis_Rai> I got sidetracked and looked at lifehacker and other things
02:03:27 <Aexis_Rai> but loading pages is pretty slow
02:03:28 <vf2nsr> np
02:03:36 <vf2nsr> we all have a life
02:03:42 <Aexis_Rai> the thing sort of crashed a few times
02:03:51 <Aexis_Rai> Or "Not Responding" 'ed
02:03:58 <vf2nsr> could try reinstalling it
02:04:17 <vf2nsr> I am on it now an dseems to be ok for me
02:05:32 <vf2nsr> other than I have no tused it sincew update so it updated my add ons
02:08:21 <vf2nsr> that would be about the only thing I can suggest otherwise maybe leave a post in forums?
02:08:50 <vf2nsr> http://portableapps.com/forums/support/firefox_portable
02:10:46 <Aexis_Rai> Yeah, I'd have to make an account there
02:11:06 <vf2nsr> not all that hard
02:11:09 <Aexis_Rai> Wasn't a big deal, I use my native FF
02:11:18 <Aexis_Rai> I'll get to that later
02:11:25 <Aexis_Rai> I'm sort of busy right now though
02:11:29 <Aexis_Rai> Thanks again
