Diablo-D3 | yeah, dont use 3.6 | Oct 19 00:35 |
sebsebseb | anyway that every six weeks | Oct 19 00:35 |
Diablo-D3 | its too old | Oct 19 00:35 |
sebsebseb | and a new Firefox | Oct 19 00:35 |
sebsebseb | thing is stupid | Oct 19 00:35 |
Diablo-D3 | 3.6 is missing a shitload of js engine performance increases | Oct 19 00:35 |
sebsebseb | it's also stupid that they dropped support for Firefox 4.0 really, soon after it was released | Oct 19 00:36 |
sebsebseb | after all the hype about it and everything | Oct 19 00:36 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: well no | Oct 19 00:36 |
Diablo-D3 | there was no 4.0 | Oct 19 00:36 |
Diablo-D3 | its really 3.7 | Oct 19 00:36 |
Diablo-D3 | same with 5, 3.8, etc etc | Oct 19 00:36 |
sebsebseb | someone wanted to put Firefox 4,0 in a company, and he had it tested, but | Oct 19 00:36 |
cubezzz | I think it's the ads or something | Oct 19 00:36 |
sebsebseb | had to stay with firefox 3.6 since it lost support | Oct 19 00:36 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: then use adblock noob. | Oct 19 00:36 |
cubezzz | that article on secure boot for example | Oct 19 00:36 |

Diablo-D3 | firefox does NOT support old releases period | Oct 19 00:37 |
sebsebseb | I think Mozilla releasing Firefox and Thunderbird every six weeks is, because they got money now and a lot, and want to spend it some how | Oct 19 00:37 |

sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: schestowitz personally I think from like user features and such point of view, that are seen, that Firefox is quite rubbish really after Firefox 3.6, under the hood though the rendering engine Gecko of course things have improved and probably by a lot | Oct 19 00:40 |
DaemonFC | [19:37] <DaemonFC> klh: I believe that the two biggest threats to America are Godzilla and Homosexuals | Oct 19 00:41 |
DaemonFC | [19:38] <DaemonFC> maybe not in that order | Oct 19 00:41 |

DaemonFC | [19:38] <DaemonFC> but the Homosexuals are probably not busy stockpiling anthrax | Oct 19 00:41 |

sebsebseb | with Flash and what not anyway | Oct 19 00:44 |
DaemonFC | the Linux and OS X versions never perform as well as the Windows version | Oct 19 00:44 |
sebsebseb | I can't think of me running FIrefox on Windows resulting in my computer becoming barely useable | Oct 19 00:44 |

sebsebseb | DaemonFC: Oh? | Oct 19 00:44 |
DaemonFC | yeah, look at the new Firefox Azure graphics backend | Oct 19 00:45 |
sebsebseb | Firefox is also really for home users, one fo the like lead developers has made it quite clear, that they don't really care about business users. | Oct 19 00:45 |
DaemonFC | it replaces Cairo on Windows builds and runs canvas much more smoothly | Oct 19 00:45 |
sebsebseb | not sure hat Azure is, but sounds familur | Oct 19 00:45 |
DaemonFC | their hardware acceleration is targeted at DirectX | Oct 19 00:45 |
sebsebseb | Cairo? canvas? | Oct 19 00:45 |
DaemonFC | they have abroken OpenGL backend for it for Linux | Oct 19 00:46 |
DaemonFC | which hangs Firefox, crashes X, or leaks memory like a sieve | Oct 19 00:46 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: I think I did read before about how loads of the Mozilla developers were Windows users really even. | Oct 19 00:46 |
DaemonFC | unless you use an Nvidia card with the binary driver | Oct 19 00:46 |
DaemonFC | I'm really disappointed with them | Oct 19 00:46 |

DaemonFC | the last time Firefox had consistency on Linux and Windows was probably 2.x | Oct 19 00:48 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: cubezzz something else that annoys me since Firefox 4.0, they messed up the user agent | Oct 19 00:48 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: cubezzz used to be that it would say what distros we were running | Oct 19 00:49 |
DaemonFC | it has drifted further apart ever since 3.0 | Oct 19 00:49 |
sebsebseb | try and add that in now and it will just change back to how it is | Oct 19 00:49 |
sebsebseb | saying only Linux | Oct 19 00:49 |
cubezzz | this is 3.0.18 btw | Oct 19 00:49 |
sebsebseb | browser user agent strings is one way to sort of mearues Linux dsitros market share | Oct 19 00:49 |
sebsebseb | or for a site anyway | Oct 19 00:49 |
cubezzz | no idea if latest and greatest is better | Oct 19 00:49 |
sebsebseb | ,but if they just say Linux, can't do that | Oct 19 00:49 |
DaemonFC | sebsebseb: It says whatever it was told to say at compile time | Oct 19 00:49 |
DaemonFC | so distribution releases tend to add that | Oct 19 00:50 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: it's changed no longer mentiosn the distros | Oct 19 00:50 |
sebsebseb | as I was saying | Oct 19 00:50 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: used to yes | Oct 19 00:50 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: now doesn't say the distros at all | Oct 19 00:50 |
sebsebseb | since how Mozilla has changed stuff | Oct 19 00:50 |
sebsebseb | that's what I am saying | Oct 19 00:50 |
DaemonFC | Opera doesn't fall back to XRender | Oct 19 00:50 |
DaemonFC | it has its own software acceleration system which is faster | Oct 19 00:51 |
cubezzz | sebsebseb, if you click about firefox it tells you all that stuff | Oct 19 00:51 |
DaemonFC | though OpernGL works well even under LLVMpipe | Oct 19 00:51 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: not anymore | Oct 19 00:51 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: as of Firefox 4.0 | Oct 19 00:51 |
cubezzz | at least in all the versions I've used | Oct 19 00:51 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: Firefox 3.6 is the last one to do all that | Oct 19 00:51 |
sebsebseb | and have the distros in the user agent string :D | Oct 19 00:52 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[tekk/@tekk] hi :P | Oct 19 00:52 | |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[wayneborean/@wayneborean] Unless Novell wins the lawsuit against Microsoft, in which case they'll have lots of dosh. #monopoly | Oct 19 00:52 | |
cubezzz | I compiled icecat just for fc1 | Oct 19 00:52 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: DaemonFC if you try and edit the Firefox 4.0 user agent string and add in the user agent string yourself the normal user agents editing way, it just changes back to the default as well | Oct 19 00:52 |
DaemonFC | Opera's OpenGL backend will work fine with Mesa 7.10.3 or newer | Oct 19 00:52 |
sebsebseb | also something else that annoys me Firefox 4.0 and I guess all later versions as well | Oct 19 00:52 |
DaemonFC | other than that, they've only blacklisted really old proprietary drivers | Oct 19 00:52 |
sebsebseb | can't seem to have the same webpage open more than once | Oct 19 00:52 |
DaemonFC | the user agent changer add-on will still work with Firefox | Oct 19 00:53 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: no not quite | Oct 19 00:53 |
cubezzz | I'm running a light wm but with a big fat browser | Oct 19 00:54 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: this distros and user agent string | Oct 19 00:54 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: it wil remove the distro if add in one self | Oct 19 00:54 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: FIrefox 4.0 pluss is very much so about staying with the default user agent | Oct 19 00:54 |
sebsebseb | no longer shows the user agents in help > about Mozilla Firefox even | Oct 19 00:54 |
Diablo-D3 | [07:42:35] <sebsebseb> Diablo-D3: DaemonFC Diablo-D3 Firefox is like Ubuntu these days really, not as good as it used to be! | Oct 19 00:55 |
Diablo-D3 | ubuntu was never good, so Im not sure what you're talking about | Oct 19 00:55 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: heh | Oct 19 00:55 |
sebsebseb | I guess | Oct 19 00:55 |
Diablo-D3 | firefox in the past year has dropped about 1gb in memory usage | Oct 19 00:56 |
sebsebseb | CPU useage? | Oct 19 00:56 |
sebsebseb | RAM? | Oct 19 00:56 |
Diablo-D3 | and before you go ZOMG 1GB?! I usually have about 300 tabs open | Oct 19 00:56 |
cubezzz | that's nonsensical | Oct 19 00:56 |
cubezzz | my machines don't even have 1 gig of memory | Oct 19 00:56 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: yeah bingo, with enough tabs open, and it seems espesaily if some have Flash in them, and Firefox will really slow down in a Linux distro | Oct 19 00:56 |
Diablo-D3 | yes, and on your machines you wouldnt have 300 tabs and 12 windows | Oct 19 00:56 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: flash isnt in firefox though | Oct 19 00:56 |
Diablo-D3 | it uses a different process to run flash in now | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | 4.0 first added that iirc | Oct 19 00:57 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: ah ok | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | so now flash cant slow down firefox, nor bloat the process up | Oct 19 00:57 |
sebsebseb | well I am on Firefox 3.6 again as I was saying | Oct 19 00:57 |
sebsebseb | and yaeh they got that from Chrome | Oct 19 00:57 |
sebsebseb | or Chromium even | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | well no | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | they didnt | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | they got it from a plugin that used to exist to do that | Oct 19 00:57 |
cubezzz | there's no browser that's old computer friendly | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | predates chrome | Oct 19 00:57 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: there is | Oct 19 00:58 |
cubezzz | except maybe lynx or links or some text only thing | Oct 19 00:58 |
Diablo-D3 | its just not meant for desktops | Oct 19 00:58 |
Diablo-D3 | but its not like firefox wastes memory | Oct 19 00:58 |
Diablo-D3 | _pages_ do | Oct 19 00:58 |
Diablo-D3 | load 300 html only pages | Oct 19 00:58 |
Diablo-D3 | firefox isnt going to use 2gb of memory. | Oct 19 00:58 |
Diablo-D3 | no js, no css, no images, just html 1.0, like the internet was 20 years ago | Oct 19 00:58 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: cubezzz DaemonFC I used to think Firefox was absoutly great since I first started using it with Firefox 0.8, but then Firefox 4.0 came along and I tried it and ah! | Oct 19 00:59 |
cubezzz | Diablo-D3, a user with a firefox hotkey started up 50 instances of firefox | Oct 19 00:59 |
Diablo-D3 | its going to use about as much memory as browsers before firefox did | Oct 19 00:59 |
cubezzz | the computer grounded to a halt | Oct 19 00:59 |
cubezzz | so now no more hotkey for firefox | Oct 19 00:59 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: yes, seeing as it wasnt meant to run multiple instances ;) | Oct 19 00:59 |
Diablo-D3 | also, a shit computer is a shit computer, dont blame firefox | Oct 19 00:59 |
Diablo-D3 | firefox is meant for desktops | Oct 19 00:59 |
Diablo-D3 | older desktops _arent desktops anymore_ | Oct 19 01:00 |
Diablo-D3 | they're about as powerful as a cell phone | Oct 19 01:00 |
cubezzz | I bet they could have crashed any PC | Oct 19 01:00 |
cubezzz | unless it had 8 gigs of ram | Oct 19 01:00 |
*Diablo-D3 actually does have 8gb ;) | Oct 19 01:00 | |
Diablo-D3 | but yeah, what Im saying is | Oct 19 01:00 |
cubezzz | alt-ctrl-f repeats | Oct 19 01:00 |
Diablo-D3 | websites do complex shit now | Oct 19 01:00 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: cubezzz DaemonFC I used to think Ubuntu was really great when I first started using it with the second relase in 2005, Ubuntu 5.04, and I continued thinking it was great, untill well they started patching Gnome 2 in 9.04 doing things I didn't like to it, little stuff, 9.10 some little things I didn't like, 10.04 the big ah, and so on from there. Here's the thing though I wanted it to go all main streame, I thought Ubuntu 8.10 | Oct 19 01:00 |
sebsebseb | would have been a realy good one to go main streame for example, for people who knew how to use it and that, or for people with help from someone that did. | Oct 19 01:00 |
Diablo-D3 | its possible to make firefox use 2gb on just one tab with a complex enough site | Oct 19 01:01 |
Diablo-D3 | thats just the way it is | Oct 19 01:01 |
cubezzz | hotkeys shouldnt repeat anyway | Oct 19 01:01 |
cubezzz | why would anyone want that | Oct 19 01:01 |
Diablo-D3 | its not firefox's fault | Oct 19 01:01 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: Ive been using debian for like 15 years plus or minus | Oct 19 01:01 |
Diablo-D3 | ubuntu is yawn. | Oct 19 01:01 |
cubezzz | Debian is better, yes | Oct 19 01:01 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: cubezzz DaemonFC So it seems to me that certain open source software goes main streame or really trys to go main stremae, and yep ti becomes bad. Firefox being an example of open source software that went main streame and then for me went bad, and Ubuntu being an example of a distro that since they tried to make it go a bit more main streame, started becoming rather bad for me really. To much stuff by default that I didn't want, | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | including the new branding even in 10.04. | Oct 19 01:02 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: but I dont agree with saying firefox is bad | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: well it's still better than Internet Explorer of course for example :) | Oct 19 01:02 |
Diablo-D3 | mozilla is currently trying to make every part of firefox as efficient as possible | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | and Gecko has obviously improved a lot | Oct 19 01:02 |
Diablo-D3 | they havent gone through this cycle in years | Oct 19 01:02 |
cubezzz | the end experience is bad, even if it's not firefox's fault | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | ,but the actsaul user interface | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | and such | Oct 19 01:02 |
Diablo-D3 | the change between 3.6 and current trunk is HUGE | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | and features in the brwoser itself that are seen by users | Oct 19 01:02 |
sebsebseb | and how things are by default and all that | Oct 19 01:03 |
sebsebseb | I much prefer old versions :) | Oct 19 01:03 |
Diablo-D3 | javascript is a shitload faster, windows 2D accel is better, linux 2D accel actually exists now | Oct 19 01:03 |
*magentar has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) | Oct 19 01:03 | |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: but thats where you get it wrong | Oct 19 01:03 |
Diablo-D3 | browsers didnt change | Oct 19 01:03 |
cubezzz | I mean, can I make hotkeys not repeat, and normal keys repeat? | Oct 19 01:03 |
Diablo-D3 | the INTERNET changed. | Oct 19 01:03 |
cubezzz | may not be possible | Oct 19 01:03 |
Diablo-D3 | websites got bigger, more complex, more demanding | Oct 19 01:03 |
cubezzz | some older customers have reduced manual dexerity | Oct 19 01:03 |
cubezzz | they make a lot of mistakes | Oct 19 01:04 |
Diablo-D3 | if you dont like it, too bad | Oct 19 01:04 |
sebsebseb | and little things how the user agent is no longer shown in about > firefox and the thing I was on about earlier, about distros not just being able to show in it now, and that kind of thing annoys me as well quite a bit really since 4.0 | Oct 19 01:04 |
sebsebseb | and how it seems I can't have the sam webpage open in more than one tab as wel! | Oct 19 01:04 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: everybody ignores that | Oct 19 01:04 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: not everybody | Oct 19 01:04 |
Diablo-D3 | like, I use iceweasel | Oct 19 01:04 |
Diablo-D3 | it clearly says what it is | Oct 19 01:04 |
Diablo-D3 | its 7.0.1 | Oct 19 01:04 |
Diablo-D3 | whoopdedoo. | Oct 19 01:04 |
sebsebseb | I want Firefox to say what distros people are running it on by default, like it used to, but nope it no longer does as of 4.0. | Oct 19 01:05 |
cubezzz | you can compile icecat/firefox/iceweasel with stuff disabled | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: but hey | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | thanks to those pages I talked about? the big bloated modern ones? | Oct 19 01:05 |
cubezzz | might help improve the speed | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | firefox has gotten better because of them | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | a little memory leak here or there used to be never be noticed | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | but now they show up easily | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | slow code here and there didnt, and now they do | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | inefficiencies, screw ups, smelly code | Oct 19 01:05 |
Diablo-D3 | all being grinded away between the end of 3.x and I think 9 is the last version they're grinding through | Oct 19 01:06 |
Diablo-D3 | no project _has_ to support older versions when major bug fixing has been done, period | Oct 19 01:06 |
Diablo-D3 | if enterprises and companies and IT departments and whatever done like it? too bad | Oct 19 01:06 |
Diablo-D3 | go run msie or some shit then | Oct 19 01:06 |
Diablo-D3 | chrome does the same shit, and they're even more hardcore about it | Oct 19 01:07 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: FIrefox is doing this six weeks release cycle, to compete agaisnt Chrome | Oct 19 01:07 |
sebsebseb | it seems | Oct 19 01:07 |
Diablo-D3 | you didnt pay for a support contract with mozilla, so they owe you _nothing_ | Oct 19 01:07 |
sebsebseb | since Chrome/Chromium is also bumping up the version numbers like anything | Oct 19 01:07 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: on projects that rapidly change, maybe version numbers make no sense | Oct 19 01:08 |
cubezzz | just make the date the version number | Oct 19 01:08 |
Diablo-D3 | I wouldnt mind seeing both chrome and firefox switch to yymm versions | Oct 19 01:08 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: bingo | Oct 19 01:08 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: yeah that could be a better idea really | Oct 19 01:08 |
Diablo-D3 | problem is chrome is at like 16 now | Oct 19 01:08 |
sebsebseb | anyway we will be on Firefox 25 at the end of 2013 at this rate, or wahtever I read, I read some article about that | Oct 19 01:08 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: 9 | Oct 19 01:08 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: 9 to what? | Oct 19 01:09 |
Diablo-D3 | firefox 9 | Oct 19 01:09 |
Diablo-D3 | sometime during 2012 | Oct 19 01:09 |
cubezzz | firefox with noscript isn't too bad | Oct 19 01:09 |
Diablo-D3 | I suspect they may just stop at 12 | Oct 19 01:09 |
cubezzz | I can live with it | Oct 19 01:09 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: noscript is too lame | Oct 19 01:09 |
Diablo-D3 | adblock and flashblock is enough | Oct 19 01:09 |
*sebsebseb thinks Seamonkey will become his main brwoser probably, but not just yet | Oct 19 01:09 | |
Diablo-D3 | most of the worst js abuses are ad serving related, and most of the cpu use is flash ads | Oct 19 01:09 |
cubezzz | well, I can whitelist certain sites | Oct 19 01:10 |
cubezzz | it's adjustable | Oct 19 01:10 |
Diablo-D3 | yeah, but its insane when most sites actually use js legitimately | Oct 19 01:10 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: Firefox 3.6 is no longer supported oh yeah? I haven't done security updates for a while, but as I thought, there is probably a Firefox update to install | Oct 19 01:11 |
cubezzz | I'm at 3.6.20 on one box | Oct 19 01:11 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: so let's upgrade FIrefox from well this: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en; rv:1.9.2.22) Gecko/20110907 Mandriva Linux/1.9.2.22-0.1mdv2010.2 (2010.2) Firefox/3.6.22 | Oct 19 01:11 |
cubezzz | it works | Oct 19 01:11 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: that's old | Oct 19 01:12 |
cubezzz | I don't want to upgrade my browser every week | Oct 19 01:12 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: so what? | Oct 19 01:12 |
Diablo-D3 | then stop using the internet | Oct 19 01:12 |
Diablo-D3 | the internet changes every week | Oct 19 01:12 |

sebsebseb | cubezzz: FIrefox 3.6 doesn't upgrade every week | Oct 19 01:17 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: getting an update like once a month or something it seems at the moment | Oct 19 01:17 |
sebsebseb | or something like that | Oct 19 01:17 |
cubezzz | ok, it's an exaggeration | Oct 19 01:17 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: it's not on the crazy new release cycle | Oct 19 01:17 |
Diablo-D3 | yeah, free software gets updates | Oct 19 01:17 |
Diablo-D3 | BOO HOO | Oct 19 01:17 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: well Firefox 3.6.22 was on 20110907 | Oct 19 01:18 |
sebsebseb | and I am about to install 3.6.23 and i'll tell you when taht was | Oct 19 01:18 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: cubezzz that's something else used to say in the Gecko bit when that version of Firefox was from | Oct 19 01:18 |
sebsebseb | now as of Firefox 4.0 + get something stupid in there that says 2010 something | Oct 19 01:18 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: Newer is not always better! some of us prefer older software | Oct 19 01:21 |
sebsebseb | at times | Oct 19 01:21 |
cubezzz | most of the time older is better | Oct 19 01:21 |
cubezzz | look at appliances from the 50's | Oct 19 01:21 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: Why you think that? | Oct 19 01:21 |
cubezzz | a lot of them still work | Oct 19 01:21 |
Diablo-D3 | sure, and when you can get old copies of the internet to go with your old browser, you might have a point | Oct 19 01:22 |
Diablo-D3 | browsers remain a special case. | Oct 19 01:22 |

Diablo-D3 | so Im not sure if negative publicity is still publicity | Oct 19 01:26 |
Diablo-D3 | btw, I tried gnome 3 + gnome shell the other day | Oct 19 01:26 |
_Goblin | well suffice to say, Datamation take a more pragmatic look at Ubuntu | Oct 19 01:26 |
Diablo-D3 | HOLY FUCKING SHIT IS IT BAD | Oct 19 01:26 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: you reading the article? | Oct 19 01:27 |
_Goblin | yep | Oct 19 01:27 |
Diablo-D3 | I couldnt apt-get remove --purge fast enough | Oct 19 01:27 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: yep you are :D | Oct 19 01:27 |
Diablo-D3 | it was almost as bad as kde4 | Oct 19 01:27 |
_Goblin | "taking place all over the Web, it doesn't take long to realize the only person you need to convince of a particular platform's merits is yourself." | Oct 19 01:27 |
_Goblin | well I never thought of that... | Oct 19 01:27 |
Diablo-D3 | jesus christ, when did rick romero report on linux? | Oct 19 01:27 |
_Goblin | I personally choose a distro thats best for somone else ;) | Oct 19 01:27 |
cubezzz | overly complex and slow | Oct 19 01:28 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: no Gnome Shell is good | Oct 19 01:28 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: and Unity is sort of ok | Oct 19 01:28 |
cubezzz | that's the new face of computing | Oct 19 01:28 |
_Goblin | Its an excellent article......if only as a lesson on how to write two pages of absolutely nothing. | Oct 19 01:28 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: the fuck it is | Oct 19 01:28 |
Diablo-D3 | its about 9000 fucking steps behind my xfce desktop | Oct 19 01:28 |
_Goblin | Oh yes it is.... | Oct 19 01:28 |
Diablo-D3 | if gnome shell is good, then xfce hands out free blowjobs. | Oct 19 01:29 |
_Goblin | thats doesn't make Unity unappealing to others just because you like Xfce | Oct 19 01:29 |
cubezzz | I'm using icewm + parts of xfce | Oct 19 01:29 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: well then as I was saying earlier when it came to Firefox and such, Newer is not always better | Oct 19 01:29 |
cubezzz | using xfce4-clipman | Oct 19 01:29 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: there we go then, we have an example, of something that for you isn't better | Oct 19 01:29 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: gnome3 isnt newer | Oct 19 01:29 |
Diablo-D3 | its a completely unrelated product | Oct 19 01:29 |
_Goblin | Diablo-D3: that comment was a little dodgy.... | Oct 19 01:29 |
Diablo-D3 | its not gnome version 3, its gnome3 version 1. | Oct 19 01:29 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: Gnome 3 is the new Gnome, bye bye Gnome 2 no longer supported, but quite a lot of distros will still provide | Oct 19 01:29 |
sebsebseb | plus that mate fork and such | Oct 19 01:29 |
_Goblin | Diablo-D3: not sure, sexual gratification and a DE should be put into the same sentence. | Oct 19 01:30 |
Diablo-D3 | _Goblin: you have not seen my desktop background. | Oct 19 01:30 |
_Goblin | I shudder.... | Oct 19 01:30 |
cubezzz | he's got you there :) | Oct 19 01:30 |
_Goblin | true... | Oct 19 01:30 |
_Goblin | although.... a wallpaper is pretty generic to any DE...we were talking about Xfce specifically | Oct 19 01:31 |
Diablo-D3 | just kidding, its a giant NASA galaxy wide shot, split in roughly 2/3rds, the bigger part on my monitor, the smaller part on my laptop | Oct 19 01:31 |
_Goblin | hey....whatever floats your boat...I'm not here to judge | Oct 19 01:31 |
Diablo-D3 | it looks awesome when I minimize everything | Oct 19 01:31 |
cubezzz | icewm for me, but I try everything | Oct 19 01:32 |
cubezzz | and I give gnome3 the thumbs down also | Oct 19 01:32 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: cubezzz Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en; rv:1.9.2.23) Gecko/20110928 Mandriva Linux/1.9.2.23-0.1mdv2010.2 (2010.2) Firefox/3.6.23 | Oct 19 01:32 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: See been quite a while since the Firefox 3.6.22 update | Oct 19 01:32 |
sebsebseb | . | Oct 19 01:32 |
Diablo-D3 | https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/Messier_81_HST.jpg | Oct 19 01:33 |
cubezzz | but what happens when all the distros go to gnome3? | Oct 19 01:33 |
Diablo-D3 | heh, Im sorry, its split right in half | Oct 19 01:33 |
cubezzz | then it's back to roll your own | Oct 19 01:33 |
Diablo-D3 | the OTHER one I was using I split in 2/3rds | Oct 19 01:33 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: Which was on 20110907 as I said earlier, so over a month before the Firefox 3.6.23 update | Oct 19 01:33 |
_Goblin | KDE....alternatively... | Oct 19 01:33 |
_Goblin | I must admit.....its kind of becoming the norm for me now. | Oct 19 01:34 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: not every week :D and yeah I know you were exagerating earlier | Oct 19 01:34 |
Diablo-D3 | I hate kde so much | Oct 19 01:34 |
Diablo-D3 | I swear | Oct 19 01:34 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: in PC Linux OS? | Oct 19 01:34 |
Diablo-D3 | Im just going to code my own goddamned DE | Oct 19 01:34 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: or what distro you on at the moment? | Oct 19 01:34 |
cubezzz | KDE 3.5.10 was OK | Oct 19 01:34 |
_Goblin | 4.6.5 is what I'm running...Ive had no issues | Oct 19 01:34 |
sebsebseb | in which distro? Sabayon? | Oct 19 01:35 |
cubezzz | at least if you write your own DE or WM you'll be happy with it | Oct 19 01:35 |
_Goblin | appart from the silly convoluted way its has its settings.....but Ive already ranted... | Oct 19 01:35 |
TechrightsBot-tr | Not a web page! Aborting image/jpeg type | Oct 19 01:35 |
_Goblin | no not sabayon | Oct 19 01:35 |
sebsebseb | PC Linux OS? | Oct 19 01:35 |
_Goblin | since I want Xfce and keep an eye on another distro and KDE....Ive two partitions...One sabayon one PCLinuxOS | Oct 19 01:36 |
cubezzz | I'll probably go with icewm + xfce4 in the future | Oct 19 01:36 |
cubezzz | mwm was too primitive, even for me | Oct 19 01:36 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: Ok, but I thought PC Linux OS would have been using KDE 4.7 by now hmm. | Oct 19 01:36 |
_Goblin | both are rolling releases..so I can easily keep up to date with both distro's/de's | Oct 19 01:36 |
_Goblin | nope | Oct 19 01:36 |
_Goblin | not yet | Oct 19 01:36 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: ah yes they delay stuff like that, if they don't think it's stable enough yet | Oct 19 01:36 |
sebsebseb | they delayed KDE 4.6 a bit if I remember correctly | Oct 19 01:37 |
sebsebseb | and then had to basically start over with all settings | Oct 19 01:37 |
cubezzz | is there a distro that comes with xfce as the default? | Oct 19 01:37 |
sebsebseb | when upgrading to it | Oct 19 01:37 |
_Goblin | just double checked....its still 4.6.5 | Oct 19 01:37 |
sebsebseb | KDE settings, well for the desktp and such | Oct 19 01:37 |
sebsebseb | think it remembered like for example Konversaiton stuff | Oct 19 01:37 |
_Goblin | Wolvix? | Oct 19 01:37 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: anyway yeah Linux distros, differnet vrsions of the kernel, and the desktop envrionemnts and so on | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | ,but in general] | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | most Desktop Linux distros are quite similar really | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | I guess | Oct 19 01:38 |
cubezzz | ah, based on slackware | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | that are stil being made now | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: surely you can run KDE in Sabayon though? | Oct 19 01:38 |
cubezzz | sebsebseb, yes but I like to try Plan 9 and the BSDs too | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | it's in the repos I guess? | Oct 19 01:38 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: ,but sure PC Linux OS is one of the distros people would go to for a good KDE expereince, same for Mageia | Oct 19 01:39 |
cubezzz | Plan 9 is so different it will warp your brain | Oct 19 01:39 |
sebsebseb | and well maybe it's changed a bit now for Mandriva, but still known for a good KDE expereince, but now the rosa stuff in that one so hmm | Oct 19 01:39 |
_Goblin | sebsebseb: I can, but like I said earlier, I want to keep an eye on another distro too... | Oct 19 01:39 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: right, but why not run PCLOS with Gnome 2 as well for example, it's there in the repos and such | Oct 19 01:39 |
_Goblin | because Ive moved from Gnome 2 | Oct 19 01:40 |
sebsebseb | if I am running a distro, I tend to try it all really, Gnome, KDE, and XFCE, and maybe LXDE, and such | Oct 19 01:40 |
sebsebseb | altough for some reason it took me quite a while before I tried out LXDE in Mandriva | Oct 19 01:40 |
_Goblin | Im not interested in Gnome 3 so theres nothing to keep an eye on as far as Im concerned with Gnome | Oct 19 01:40 |
sebsebseb | uh XFCE I mean, above | Oct 19 01:40 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: yeah, but PCLOS is on Gnome 2 still as I was saying | Oct 19 01:40 |
Diablo-D3 | ahh | Oct 19 01:41 |
_Goblin | Ive the KDE edition. | Oct 19 01:41 |
Diablo-D3 | I found the full size shot! | Oct 19 01:41 |
Diablo-D3 | http://imgsrc.hubblesite.org/hu/db/images/hs-2007-19-a-full_tif.tif | Oct 19 01:41 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: and they are going to actsaully make it so users can have both install Gnome 2 and Gnome 3, and let them switch between, altough it seems Mint want to do something like that, by using the mate fork hmm | Oct 19 01:41 |
_Goblin | sebsebseb: there would be little point in having KDE Sabayon and Xfce Sabayon if I want to not only watch two DE's but two distro's too. | Oct 19 01:41 |
sebsebseb | Mint is going to say with Gnome 2.32 for now as well | Oct 19 01:41 |
sebsebseb | and they are helping work on mate, and | Oct 19 01:41 |
sebsebseb | they will provide a Gnome 3.2 version as well | Oct 19 01:42 |
sebsebseb | and this is really Monday's news, but I think you might have missed it or something | Oct 19 01:42 |
Diablo-D3 | http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/2007/19/image/a/ | Oct 19 01:42 |
sebsebseb | they also need more donations really | Oct 19 01:42 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: cubezzz anyway _Goblin not likeing Gnome 3, is another example, of the kind of thing we were talking about ealrier to do with FIrefox, newer not always being better, and sometiems people prefering older software | Oct 19 01:43 |
sebsebseb | well ok he's moved on from Gnome 2 to XFCE, but would prefer Gnome 2 over Gnome 3, and well | Oct 19 01:43 |
sebsebseb | XFCE is quite Gnome 2 like, GTK and all that, some of the icons are the same really and all that | Oct 19 01:44 |
*TechrightsBot-tr has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) | Oct 19 01:44 | |
sebsebseb | and yeah XFCE is the new Gnome 2 for quite a lot of people now really | Oct 19 01:44 |
_Goblin | sebsebseb: nothing to stop you using Gnome icons | Oct 19 01:44 |
sebsebseb | however really XFCE is a old project that's been around for years and years | Oct 19 01:44 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: yep that's what I just said, that can use Gnome icons in XFCE | Oct 19 01:44 |
_Goblin | that makes it mature | Oct 19 01:44 |
Diablo-D3 | xfce was the new gnome 2 before gnome 3 was even thought of, dude. | Oct 19 01:44 |
_Goblin | i think Xfce is ver 4.7...released March this year. | Oct 19 01:44 |
sebsebseb | _Goblin: plus not sure how, but can some how get the Gnome 2 weather feature in XFCE and use that even. | Oct 19 01:44 |
Diablo-D3 | hell, the first version of xfce predates gnome 2 | Oct 19 01:45 |
*hemimaniac (~Hemi@216.240.15.88) has joined #techrights | Oct 19 01:45 | |
_Goblin | I think as more people migrate, it will benefit development of Xfce | Oct 19 01:45 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[webmink/@webmink] OpenDJ (embeddable LDAP server in Java) 2.4.4 has been released: http://wmk.me/orwbVU | Oct 19 01:45 | |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: maybe so, but there was a Gnome 1, and XFCE uses GTK, so I assume Gnome was first | Oct 19 01:45 |
_Goblin | and I can see many going the Xfce way | Oct 19 01:45 |
cubezzz | gnome wasn't first | Oct 19 01:45 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: What? | Oct 19 01:45 |
cubezzz | there was twm and mwm before gnome | Oct 19 01:46 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: What about GTK then? Gnome Toolkit | Oct 19 01:46 |
sebsebseb | XFCE uses GTK | Oct 19 01:46 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: I meant before XFCE | Oct 19 01:46 |
sebsebseb | Gnome was before XFCE right? | Oct 19 01:46 |
cubezzz | intial release was march 1999 | Oct 19 01:47 |
Diablo-D3 | BWHAHAHA | Oct 19 01:47 |
Diablo-D3 | gtk | Oct 19 01:47 |
Diablo-D3 | gnome toolkit | Oct 19 01:47 |
Diablo-D3 | lawlz | Oct 19 01:47 |
Diablo-D3 | GIMP toolkit. | Oct 19 01:47 |
Diablo-D3 | yes, THAT gimp. | Oct 19 01:47 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: ah yeah that's a point | Oct 19 01:48 |
sebsebseb | it's Gimp not Gnome isn't it? | Oct 19 01:48 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: also the Gnome channels are on gimpnet | Oct 19 01:48 |
sebsebseb | for IRC | Oct 19 01:48 |
cubezzz | wiki says Olivier Fourdan started xfce in 1996 | Oct 19 01:48 |
cubezzz | so it seems xfce is actually older | Oct 19 01:48 |
sebsebseb | so XFCE was before Gnome? | Oct 19 01:48 |
Diablo-D3 | what, seriously? | Oct 19 01:48 |
Diablo-D3 | xfce just became more awesome | Oct 19 01:48 |
cubezzz | it seems so | Oct 19 01:48 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: heh I think I know why your saying that | Oct 19 01:49 |
sebsebseb | and in a way maybe so | Oct 19 01:49 |
sebsebseb | ,but why did Gnome become much more popualr than XFCE? | Oct 19 01:49 |
sebsebseb | If XFCE was first? | Oct 19 01:49 |
cubezzz | xfce was originally xforms common environment | Oct 19 01:49 |
Diablo-D3 | because people suck. | Oct 19 01:49 |
sebsebseb | Since Ubutnu went with Gnome 2? | Oct 19 01:49 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: uh, dude | Oct 19 01:49 |
Diablo-D3 | I had gnome 2 installed in debian before ubuntu existed. | Oct 19 01:49 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: ok, but Ubuntu is the most popular Desktop Linux distro | Oct 19 01:49 |
sebsebseb | and has been for the past few years really | Oct 19 01:50 |
Diablo-D3 | most popular my dick | Oct 19 01:50 |
sebsebseb | well PC Linux OS was apparnatly more popular for a while in like 2007 | Oct 19 01:50 |
sebsebseb | and OpenSuse used to be popualr | Oct 19 01:50 |
Diablo-D3 | ubuntu can blow it out their ass | Oct 19 01:50 |
Diablo-D3 | fucking losers | Oct 19 01:50 |
Diablo-D3 | debian has more boxes than any other distro period | Oct 19 01:50 |
_Goblin | thats not very nice... | Oct 19 01:50 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: like it or not, it's the most popular distro right now | Oct 19 01:50 |
cubezzz | window managers predate Linux itself | Oct 19 01:50 |
Diablo-D3 | ubuntu doesnt even come close | Oct 19 01:50 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: you mean since Unix, I assume? | Oct 19 01:50 |
Diablo-D3 | the internet runs on debian | Oct 19 01:50 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: no it don't | Oct 19 01:51 |
cubezzz | Ultrix had the first X window system | Oct 19 01:51 |
sebsebseb | it runs on many differnet OS's | Oct 19 01:51 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: including dum de dum Windows | Oct 19 01:51 |
Diablo-D3 | debian. | Oct 19 01:51 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: also Slackware is the oldest Linux distro that is still made today | Oct 19 01:52 |
sebsebseb | not Debian | Oct 19 01:52 |
DaemonFC | it's close | Oct 19 01:52 |
sebsebseb | DaemonFC: yeah by about three months or something? | Oct 19 01:52 |
Diablo-D3 | not quite | Oct 19 01:52 |
cubezzz | people still patch 2.11BSD | Oct 19 01:52 |
Diablo-D3 | they showed up at the same time | Oct 19 01:53 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: no there's like three months in between or something like that, I think? | Oct 19 01:53 |
Diablo-D3 | 3 months is the same time in my book | Oct 19 01:53 |
sebsebseb | well like it or not | Oct 19 01:53 |
sebsebseb | Slackware is still older | Oct 19 01:53 |
Diablo-D3 | I think you missed the point | Oct 19 01:53 |
cubezzz | you want old? :) | Oct 19 01:53 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: same year, but Slackware is still older | Oct 19 01:53 |
Diablo-D3 | and slackware hasnt changed in 9000 years anyhow | Oct 19 01:53 |
cubezzz | Unix system 5 :) | Oct 19 01:53 |
Diablo-D3 | it still the unmaintainable pile of shit it ever was | Oct 19 01:54 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: we want old? well isn't that why we have you here partly? heh just joking :D | Oct 19 01:54 |
cubezzz | Yggdrasil was before slack | Oct 19 01:54 |
Diablo-D3 | WANT OLD? YARGHDRASIL | Oct 19 01:54 |
cubezzz | right :) | Oct 19 01:54 |
Diablo-D3 | it wasnt even really a distro | Oct 19 01:54 |
cubezzz | and there might have been a couple before that even | Oct 19 01:55 |
Diablo-D3 | it was just a pile of binaries | Oct 19 01:55 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: Yggdrasil yeah read about that one a bit before, but well that died, so Slackware is the oldest distro that is still maintained today | Oct 19 01:55 |
sebsebseb | also didn't know Yggdrasil was before Slackware | Oct 19 01:55 |
Diablo-D3 | slackware and debian were both started to fill the gap left by yggdrasil | Oct 19 01:55 |
cubezzz | Dec 1992 | Oct 19 01:55 |
cubezzz | I have a timeline going back to 1974 | Oct 19 01:55 |
Diablo-D3 | only 74? | Oct 19 01:55 |
sebsebseb | uh, but the Linux kernel didn't get open sourced untill 1993 I thought? | Oct 19 01:55 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: wrong choice of words | Oct 19 01:56 |
Diablo-D3 | it didnt exist until 92. | Oct 19 01:56 |
Diablo-D3 | it was always open source | Oct 19 01:56 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: no apparnatly the Linux kernel started off as cloused source even, but hten Linus released it under the GPL | Oct 19 01:56 |
sebsebseb | later on | Oct 19 01:56 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: depends how you define closed source | Oct 19 01:56 |
cubezzz | I've even run Unix v5 on a emulator | Oct 19 01:56 |
Diablo-D3 | linus merely didnt chose a license yet | Oct 19 01:56 |
sebsebseb | also apparnatly to begin with for Desktp Linux, most of the apps were closed source, but then loads of open source altenraives came along | Oct 19 01:56 |
cubezzz | that's the oldest I've tried | Oct 19 01:56 |
sebsebseb | so yeah Netscape and that kind of thing for the closed stuff | Oct 19 01:56 |
Diablo-D3 | what desktop linux | Oct 19 01:57 |
cubezzz | what wm did yggdrasil use? | Oct 19 01:57 |
Diablo-D3 | just because you had X doesnt mean you had a desktop | Oct 19 01:57 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: none | Oct 19 01:57 |
Diablo-D3 | it didnt even have X iirc | Oct 19 01:57 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: that's not what Desktop Linux means | Oct 19 01:57 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: it means something you can run on a PC or lap top basicalely | Oct 19 01:57 |
cubezzz | Diablo-D3, nah it had X | Oct 19 01:57 |
sebsebseb | and that isn't a server OS | Oct 19 01:57 |
sebsebseb | or something like that | Oct 19 01:57 |
cubezzz | I have the source on one box | Oct 19 01:57 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: but linux has no difference between the two | Oct 19 01:57 |
Diablo-D3 | linux is linux is linux | Oct 19 01:57 |
Diablo-D3 | no matter what I run it on, or what I run it for | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: Ubuntu, Mandriva, Mageia, Mint, PC Linux OS, Sabayon, etc etc, are Desktop Linux distro's, but take Ubuntu for example that can be a server OS as well, Ubuntu Server Editon | Oct 19 01:58 |
Diablo-D3 | ubuntu is a desktop distro | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: and there's roboitic Linux | Oct 19 01:58 |
Diablo-D3 | debian is just debian. | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | and embbeded LInux | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | and such as well | Oct 19 01:58 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: yes, and all linux | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | and Android which uhmm | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | well | Oct 19 01:58 |
Diablo-D3 | its silly to say linux is anything but linux. | Oct 19 01:58 |
cubezzz | X goes way back | Oct 19 01:58 |
cubezzz | even Ultrix had X | Oct 19 01:58 |
sebsebseb | Android apparnatly is just wel the Linux kernel under GPL, and then everything else in a virtual machine under the Apache lisence or something like that | Oct 19 01:59 |
Diablo-D3 | android is the worlds first linux that gnu/ doesnt go infront of the linux. | Oct 19 01:59 |
sebsebseb | and GPL and Apache lisence aren't compatible | Oct 19 01:59 |
Diablo-D3 | sebsebseb: bzzt. | Oct 19 01:59 |
Diablo-D3 | less fud kthx. | Oct 19 01:59 |
sebsebseb | Diablo-D3: I said apparnatly | Oct 19 01:59 |
sebsebseb | stuff I read | Oct 19 01:59 |
sebsebseb | correct it, if it's wrong | Oct 19 01:59 |
Diablo-D3 | asl2 and gpl3 are compatible | Oct 19 01:59 |
cubezzz | They even called Yggdrasil Linux/GNU/X | Oct 19 01:59 |
Diablo-D3 | and gpl has OS-specific clauses | Oct 19 01:59 |

billg | Shestowitz? | Oct 19 02:35 |
DaemonFC | the v. is misleading | Oct 19 02:35 |
DaemonFC | there's something going on but this isn't a lawsuit | Oct 19 02:35 |
billg | It's an 'antitrust trial` | Oct 19 02:36 |
billg | And I'll have to give evidence again :( | Oct 19 02:36 |
billg | People should purge their email at lest once a month. That's a feeture I should have included in Outlook, and patented it ... | Oct 19 02:38 |
DaemonFC | the only good thing about Outlook 2010 is that it no longer uses Internet Explorer as an HTML renderer | Oct 19 02:39 |
billg | Haa :), what does it use ? | Oct 19 02:40 |
DaemonFC | the renderer included with Office 2010, which is the same one that Expression Web uses | Oct 19 02:40 |
DaemonFC | it's more standards compliant than IE | Oct 19 02:40 |
DaemonFC | well at least IE < 9 | Oct 19 02:41 |
Diablo-D3 | erm | Oct 19 02:41 |
Diablo-D3 | outlook sort of did include it | Oct 19 02:41 |
Diablo-D3 | its called db corruption | Oct 19 02:41 |
billg | So if you uninstall Office, Outlook breaks .. same ole same ole ... | Oct 19 02:41 |
DaemonFC | problem with using the Trident (IE) renderer control is you could get any version of IE that happens to be installed on the system | Oct 19 02:42 |
DaemonFC | so you could get IE 6, or you could get IE 7, 8, or 9 | Oct 19 02:42 |
DaemonFC | the only way for them to get consistent rendering is to include a different rendering engine with Office or Expression Web | Oct 19 02:42 |
billg | 'standards compliant` .. are you kidding .. MS makes stuff that don't work with anyone elses STUFF !!! | Oct 19 02:42 |
DaemonFC | they make stuff that doesn't work with their own stuff | Oct 19 02:43 |
billg | Well, I did say we gotta keep making Windows a moving target, sometimes it moves so fast even our own developers can't keep up ... | Oct 19 02:44 |
billg | I wonder how the 'antitrust trial` will pan out ? | Oct 19 02:49 |
Diablo-D3 | novell and microsoft will both lose, and the lawyers will win | Oct 19 02:50 |
Diablo-D3 | isnt that how it always goes? | Oct 19 02:50 |

DaemonFC | where Everyone sues Everyone Else | Oct 19 02:50 |

billg | Yea, why is everyone opposed to Microsoft innovation, we only want other companies to be better, that's why we hide documentation from them ... | Oct 19 02:52 |
DaemonFC | and sue them over things that Microsoft didn't invent? | Oct 19 02:55 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 19 02:55 |
DaemonFC | or extended and then patented a tiny little detail so nobody could be compatible without paying up | Oct 19 02:55 |

billg | Are you a bot, I was being sarcastic ... | Oct 19 02:57 |
billg | YOu are correct in a way, since MS virtually owns Novell (the patent consortium and the SuSE deal), it could be seen as MS suing itself :) yea ?? | Oct 19 02:59 |

DaemonFC | *hardware aceleration | Oct 19 12:05 |

DaemonFC | the second point is correct, but it's not like it's the only web browser | Oct 19 12:06 |
DaemonFC | I'm sure I could go back to using Bloatzilla Bloated Bloat | Oct 19 12:06 |
MinceR | also, try running opera on say, MIPS | Oct 19 12:06 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Yes, they do | Oct 19 12:06 |
DaemonFC | the extensions can be written in HTML 5, CSS, and Javascript | Oct 19 12:06 |
MinceR | sounds fishy | Oct 19 12:06 |
DaemonFC | it's not | Oct 19 12:06 |
DaemonFC | they're not as good as Firefox, but they are better than Chrome's | Oct 19 12:07 |
MinceR | also, try auditing software without having access to the source code; try fixing secholes without being allowed to redistribute it | Oct 19 12:07 |
MinceR | last time i checked it wasn't exactly difficult to better at it than chrome | Oct 19 12:07 |
MinceR | s/bet/be &/ | Oct 19 12:07 |
DaemonFC | also, Opera has to check each extension to make sure it isn't malware | Oct 19 12:07 |
DaemonFC | some really bad shit has wound up on Firefox's add-on site | Oct 19 12:08 |
MinceR | ah, walled garden, how nice | Oct 19 12:08 |
DaemonFC | and there have been instances of extensions attacking each other | Oct 19 12:08 |
DaemonFC | like noscript v. adblock plus | Oct 19 12:08 |
DaemonFC | Mozilla doesn't do anything to make sure extensions aren't malicious | Oct 19 12:08 |
MinceR | i'm running both and somehow the house still hasn't burned down | Oct 19 12:08 |
DaemonFC | by anything I mean, next to nothing | Oct 19 12:08 |
DaemonFC | well, I'm only saying that Mozilla add-ons isn't trustworthy just because an extension is hosted there | Oct 19 12:09 |
DaemonFC | and a Firefox extension becomes part of Firefox and able to manipulate anything it likes | Oct 19 12:09 |
DaemonFC | sometimes that is good | Oct 19 12:09 |
DaemonFC | sometimes it is bad | Oct 19 12:09 |
DaemonFC | it is a powerful cross platform application framework, and by applications, that can include malicious software | Oct 19 12:10 |
DaemonFC | spyware, extensions attacking others | Oct 19 12:10 |
DaemonFC | modifying the browser with spamlinks to replace text on any webpage | Oct 19 12:10 |
DaemonFC | like some have done, which apparently does not go against Mozilla policy | Oct 19 12:10 |
DaemonFC | having a powerful extension system is only good as long as you only install good extensions | Oct 19 12:11 |
DaemonFC | and that brings me to the next point | Oct 19 12:11 |
DaemonFC | most extensions for Firefox are not free and open source | Oct 19 12:11 |
DaemonFC | in fact, a lot of them don't even list a license | Oct 19 12:11 |
DaemonFC | Mozilla's add-on policy leaves much to be desired | Oct 19 12:12 |
DaemonFC | frankly I think they do their users a disservice by making them believe an add-on from that site can be trusted to do what it says it will | Oct 19 12:12 |
MinceR | well, if being able to install bad extensions/applications is bad, let me point you to iOS | Oct 19 12:12 |
MinceR | it has what you want | Oct 19 12:12 |
MinceR | i'll stick with my general-purpose computing | Oct 19 12:12 |
DaemonFC | you don't need Opera's blessing to install an add-on | Oct 19 12:13 |
DaemonFC | you only need it to host your add-on on their add-on site | Oct 19 12:13 |
DaemonFC | so you know nothing there is malicious | Oct 19 12:13 |
MinceR | and i don't think that mozilla makes a user believe an add-on is trustable when it pops up a window telling you to install only extensions you trust and not even letting you proceed before a few seconds have passed | Oct 19 12:13 |
DaemonFC | I happen to agree with Opera here | Oct 19 12:13 |
DaemonFC | there's nothing nefarious going on | Oct 19 12:14 |
MinceR | btw, there is a place where known good extensions are hosted, it's called a package repository | Oct 19 12:14 |
DaemonFC | they're weeding out malware and things that can interfere with the user's ability to use the browser | Oct 19 12:14 |
DaemonFC | right, so why don't you complain about those? | Oct 19 12:14 |
DaemonFC | after all, someone has to approve a package before it goes into a Linux distribution | Oct 19 12:15 |
DaemonFC | clearly this is evil | Oct 19 12:15 |

DaemonFC | I'm pointing out how ridiculous the argument is that just because Opera doesn't want to become host to malware and piss poor extensions, doesn't mean they're being evil | Oct 19 12:16 |

DaemonFC | the extension system you're rooting for seems to be more like the software installation system on Windows | Oct 19 12:17 |
DaemonFC | and look what that did :) | Oct 19 12:17 |
DaemonFC | there's nothing wrong with having a trusted software repository and then if the user wants to go out and find some random software to run and feels like they can trust it, then let them | Oct 19 12:18 |
DaemonFC | I wish Mozilla would do something like that | Oct 19 12:18 |
DaemonFC | because being on their add-on site means very little | Oct 19 12:19 |
DaemonFC | it's better than going to some random website and hoping for the best, but jsut barely | Oct 19 12:19 |
DaemonFC | even if the intention isn't malicious, the add-on can still be crap | Oct 19 12:19 |
DaemonFC | Mozilla's site is rife with extensions that leak memory, delay the browser starting up, cause crashes.... | Oct 19 12:20 |
DaemonFC | and this rapid update nonsense is only making it worse | Oct 19 12:20 |
DaemonFC | they're automatically flagging extensions compatible that nobody has tested even though the API has changed | Oct 19 12:20 |
DaemonFC | fun | Oct 19 12:20 |
DaemonFC | iirc, schestowitz is one of the people sticking to Firefox 3.6 and hoping they support it long enough to come to their senses and release a long term support version or something | Oct 19 12:22 |

DaemonFC | like suggesting you can trust Bing with your privacy | Oct 19 12:22 |
DaemonFC | and telling corporate Firefox users to fuck off | Oct 19 12:22 |

-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] it's easy for politicians to hide behind "I didn't break any rules" when caught, as it's politicians who make those rules, inc loopholes | Oct 19 23:26 | |

DaemonFC | schestowitz: I have something in common with Texas | Oct 19 23:42 |
DaemonFC | they want to leave the United States | Oct 19 23:42 |
DaemonFC | and I say we let them | Oct 19 23:43 |
*koolhead17 is now known as koolhead17|zzZZZ | Oct 19 23:43 | |
DaemonFC | without Texas, think about how bad the Democrats would have to fuck up to lose the white house | Oct 19 23:43 |
DaemonFC | I can't say I'm fond of Democrats, but the Republican offerings so far are a pizza guy that played Sim City once, a Mormon, and the Texas governor who wants to secede from the US but is running for president of the US | Oct 19 23:44 |
DaemonFC | I've got a better idea, don't be a hypocrite, please leave the US, and you can be the president, of Texas | Oct 19 23:46 |
DaemonFC | as for the mormon and the pizza guy that played Sim City, I'm at a loss for words | Oct 19 23:46 |
schestowitz | exas would be a more religious country than Mexico | Oct 19 23:47 |
schestowitz | Also deep in debt | Oct 19 23:47 |
schestowitz | But.. | Oct 19 23:47 |
MinceR | and on the democrat side, you have the guy who advertises big companies and does nothing else | Oct 19 23:47 |
schestowitz | Texas has some decent universities in there too, I kid you not | Oct 19 23:47 |
schestowitz | I work with of of them (data-sharing) | Oct 19 23:47 |
MinceR | he promised all sorts of things and delivered very little | Oct 19 23:47 |
MinceR | but at least he got his nose brown when the big-mouthed thief and patent abuser died | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | MinceR: he didn't promise | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | He has a campaign | Oct 19 23:48 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] As in some distros typing sudo could be met with the equivalent you are not on the list? | Oct 19 23:48 | |
MinceR | he promised he'll close gitmo | Oct 19 23:48 |
MinceR | gitmo is still open | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | the PR people funded by corporations, wrote down "promises" | Oct 19 23:48 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: He fights for the blind black lesbian quadriplegic Satan worshippers who crossed into the US illegally from Mexico (somehow) | Oct 19 23:48 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | to help put his team in office | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | he just read the texts the campaign managers gave him | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | he's more like an actor | Oct 19 23:48 |
MinceR | he's a puppet | Oct 19 23:48 |
schestowitz | those promises are like those claims you see in adverts | Oct 19 23:49 |
schestowitz | "coke will get you women" | Oct 19 23:49 |
MinceR | just like the whoever the republican candidate will be | Oct 19 23:49 |
schestowitz | [23:48] <MinceR> he promised he'll close gitmo | Oct 19 23:49 |
schestowitz | He kept it closed | Oct 19 23:49 |
MinceR | the megacorps will pull whichever the voters like better on their hand and continue playing | Oct 19 23:49 |
schestowitz | "nobody goes out" :-) | Oct 19 23:49 |
DaemonFC | he hasn't done me any favors, he pressed for don't ask don't tell to be repealed, now we can finally have what I think Bill Hicks once said about gay people in the military | Oct 19 23:49 |
DaemonFC | anyone who is fucking stupid enough to join the military, should be allowed in | Oct 19 23:49 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 19 23:50 |
MinceR | and the voters won't elect anyone outside the two big parties because 1) the voters are mostly idiots and 2) those guys don't have the money to advertise themselves so well | Oct 19 23:50 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: The Democrats and the Republicans write the election laws | Oct 19 23:50 |
DaemonFC | including what the requirements are for ballot access | Oct 19 23:50 |
DaemonFC | that's before we get to the computerized fraud | Oct 19 23:51 |
MinceR | it's like the biggest companies asking the public what color makeup they should be wearing while they control the USA for the next 4 years | Oct 19 23:51 |
schestowitz | colour me surprised | Oct 19 23:51 |
MinceR | still, it's subtle compared to what's going on in hungary | Oct 19 23:51 |
schestowitz | lol | Oct 19 23:51 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Republican controlled states, like Indiana (slim majority) make you present a driver's license or state ID to vote | Oct 19 23:51 |
schestowitz | I saw hungary's parliament earlier | Oct 19 23:52 |
MinceR | especially what will happen next time it's election time | Oct 19 23:52 |
schestowitz | I used sxc.hu to find eu parliament picturs | Oct 19 23:52 |
DaemonFC | you know how many cases of voter fraud have been prosecuted in the last 10 years? | Oct 19 23:52 |
DaemonFC | whole United States? | Oct 19 23:52 |
schestowitz | it had Budapest in page 1 | Oct 19 23:52 |
DaemonFC | this gigantic number.... | Oct 19 23:52 |
DaemonFC | 17 | Oct 19 23:52 |
MinceR | :> | Oct 19 23:52 |
DaemonFC | 1.7 people per year out of over 300 million are charged with voter fraud | Oct 19 23:52 |
DaemonFC | so we need to write laws that just so happen to keep a lot of poor people from voting | Oct 19 23:53 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: still, i don't seem to read/hear about people considering to vote for other parties any time there's an election in the USA | Oct 19 23:53 |
DaemonFC | because they commit fraud | Oct 19 23:53 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] I am not so sure the EU is worth supporting except for politicians and their patrons. I want changes before I am on board again. | Oct 19 23:53 | |
schestowitz | poor people are not bad for voting | Oct 19 23:53 |
schestowitz | the rich find them more gullible | Oct 19 23:53 |
MinceR | if they only used fraud to get their way, it would be different | Oct 19 23:53 |
schestowitz | it's the class of intellectuals they're most afraid of | Oct 19 23:53 |
schestowitz | the super-rich know how to fool the super-poor | Oct 19 23:53 |
schestowitz | it's those people beneath them they would struggle to trap | Oct 19 23:54 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: we need to clamp down in this problem of 1.7 ballots per year that are fraudulently cast | Oct 19 23:54 |
schestowitz | not those who work 7 to 6 and then watch Glenn Beck before bedtime | Oct 19 23:54 |
DaemonFC | the fact that it keeps the people the Republicans don't want voting anyway away from the polls is just a nice side effect | Oct 19 23:54 |
DaemonFC | :) | Oct 19 23:54 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: election are a fraud | Oct 19 23:54 |
schestowitz | you need to oveerise the process | Oct 19 23:54 |
schestowitz | especially the advertising of candidates | Oct 19 23:54 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Updike is finished | Oct 19 23:55 |
