[01:26] <blahdeblah> OK, so i'm trying to be a good boy and learn how to use Unity properly. I've played with it for a few days and it's driving me nuts. Please, tell me if it's possible to: 1. Maximise a window vertically without changing its width, and keeping it in the centre of the screen. 2. Change to a specific workspace from the keyboard? 3. Switch to another window of the same application from the keyboard.
[01:29] <blahdeblah> 4. Turn off the command box coming up whenever Alt is pressed.

[01:57] <blahdeblah> Sounds like time for a blog rant. No one in #ubuntu seems to know either.

[11:23] <ScottHarrison> hey folks
[11:23] <ScottHarrison> anyone active?
[11:24] <dns53> me
[11:24] <dns53> what's up?
[11:24] <ScottHarrison> do you know if there's a reliable alternative to silverlight?
[11:25] <ScottHarrison> I want to listen to the footy on the AFL website but they require radio... I was on Triple M but they can't broadcast the footy online, except from the AFL website. lol!
[11:25] <dns53> well there is moonlight, it works but the drm might not be cross platform
[11:26] <ScottHarrison> thanks, ill give it a shot... what a drag
[11:26] <dns53> how about grandstand?
[11:26] <ScottHarrison> grandstand?
[11:26] <dns53> http://blogs.abc.net.au/grandstand/
[11:28] <dns53> http://www.abc.net.au/res/streaming/audio/windows/grandstand.asx
[11:28] <dns53> should work in most media players
[11:28] <dns53> find your local abc channel http://www.abc.net.au/radio/listenlive.htm
[11:31] <ScottHarrison> thanks, moonlight worked
[11:32] <ScottHarrison> it's not perfect but it's doing the job.
[11:35] <ScottHarrison> I think the AFL has somehow contracted the web streaming of AFL games... So, the commercial stations that broadcast footy can only do so through AFL.com.au
[11:39] <dns53> nothing stopping abc, the android app works fine for audio streams
[11:42] <ScottHarrison> I tried 774, the Melbourne ABC station... no footy
