hrm.. well then.. nothing more to say.. so.. ehres a convo...

(22:42:42) chris__: ChipX86: in a short explaination, how exactly are you making it transparent? are you modifying a gtk widget?
(22:42:50) chris__: (i haven't looked at the source)
(22:42:56) Gnuyen: lol take a look at the source!
(22:43:05) chris__: lol, i probably should
(22:43:06) ChipX86: i am taking the root pixmap and clipping it and pasting it in the widget
(22:43:11) ChipX86: or, in other words
(22:43:11) Gnuyen: root window stuff
(22:43:14) ChipX86: I am stealing x-chat's code
(22:43:16) Gnuyen: lol
(22:43:19) mstyne: naughty
(22:43:20) Gnuyen: I was gonna say
(22:43:22) chris__: lol
(22:43:24) Gnuyen: stealing gnome-terminal
(22:43:24) ChipX86: yeah, it's horrible
(22:43:32) ChipX86: I should be ashamed, but I'm not
(22:43:32) iamemel: loL
(22:43:33) mstyne: goddamn GPL
(22:43:39) chris__: share and share alike - gpl
(22:43:43) Gnuyen: but i bet they stole it from xchat anyway
(22:43:55) ChipX86: and x-chat stole it from Eterm
(22:44:08) chris__: so who wrote it originally? hehe
(22:44:14) ChipX86: I think Rasterman and the guy who made Eterm came up with the method for doing this
(22:44:39) SeanEgan: mstyne: do you oppose the gpl?
(22:44:51) mstyne: not at all
(22:44:53) ChipX86: SeanEgan: the GPL is horrible. It allows evil people like me to take transparency code
(22:45:03) iamemel: haha
(22:45:05) mstyne: i was wagging a finger at ChipX86 for actually using it : )
(22:45:12) Gnuyen: lol
(22:45:22) ChipX86: *shrug* people "borrow" code from gaim
(22:45:47) SeanEgan: Not Everbuddy, though
(22:45:50) SeanEgan: everybuddy
(22:45:53) ChipX86: oh no, not them
(22:45:54) ChipX86: they're too good
(22:46:09) ChipX86: gaim is an Everybuddy fork
(22:46:17) mstyne: yeah, i used some code from gaim to program some nuclear warheads i've got sitting in my backyard
(22:46:26) ChipX86: mstyne: gaim is good for that
(22:46:31) SeanEgan: yup
(22:46:34) iamemel: hah
(22:46:37) SeanEgan: especially the smiley code
(22:46:37) mstyne: especially the "warn" function
(22:46:39) chris__: haha
(22:46:39) mstyne: hehehe
(22:46:50) Gnuyen: ?
(22:46:56) Gnuyen: did everybuddy fork off of gaim?
(22:47:05) SeanEgan: what?
(22:47:06) SeanEgan: no!
(22:47:09) SeanEgan: Never!
(22:47:10) Gnuyen: haha
(22:47:12) mstyne: hey, this is a family channel. no forking off.
(22:47:14) ChipX86: why of course not!
(22:47:20) Gnuyen: I had just assumed
(22:47:26) Gnuyen: but I guess not =P
(22:47:31) ChipX86: everybuddy consists of some of the best programmers in the world
(22:47:33) SeanEgan: Gaim is an eb fork
(22:47:39) Gnuyen: really?
(22:47:41) ChipX86: Why would they need, let's say, our Yahoo code, or anything?
(22:47:42) mstyne: yeah, to be honest i thought gaim was around before eb
(22:47:45) mstyne: but okay
(22:47:47) SoopaNigeria: really?
(22:47:55) Gnuyen: I thought gaim predated eb
(22:47:58) SeanEgan: no sense of sarcasm here
(22:48:00) ChipX86: #gaim sarcasm level up 200%
(22:48:01) Gnuyen: hehe
(22:48:03) SoopaNigeria: heh
(22:48:06) SeanEgan: Everybuddy is a Gaim fork
(22:48:08) ***mstyne catches on
(22:48:11) Gnuyen: thats what I thought
(22:48:17) Gnuyen: they got a better name
(22:48:20) Gnuyen: hehe
(22:48:27) SoopaNigeria: so what came first, everybuddy or gaim? :P
(22:48:27) SeanEgan: we came up with the name
(22:48:33) Gnuyen: everybuddy?
(22:48:36) SeanEgan: yes
(22:48:38) Gnuyen: wtf
(22:48:39) SeanEgan: we own everybuddy.com
(22:48:46) SoopaNigeria: lol
(22:48:49) ChipX86: we also invented the OSCAR protocol
(22:48:55) Gnuyen: well then you should be shot?
(22:48:56) Gnuyen: haha
(22:48:56) ChipX86: AOL is a gaim fork
(22:49:01) SeanEgan: Chstop confusing them
(22:49:04) SoopaNigeria: i invented the internet
(22:49:09) SoopaNigeria: not al gore
(22:49:15) chris__: haha
(22:49:17) mstyne: wait wait, so AOL/Time Warner is based on gaim's code?
(22:49:19) dolson: Hehe
(22:49:24) ChipX86: mstyne: yes
(22:49:25) SoopaNigeria: heheh
(22:49:32) Gnuyen: I vote Gaim officially stand for Gaim is not illegally monikered
(22:49:32) ***mstyne slaps forehead
(22:49:36) mstyne: it all makes sense now
(22:49:36) SoopaNigeria: are girls a fork of gaim?
(22:49:36) dolson: ChipX86: Didn't you invent Flash too?
(22:49:38) SeanEgan: mstyne: yes... you should see the merger papers... they say /* FUCKING GET ME A TOWEL */
(22:49:44) ChipX86: dolson: well I don't like to brag..
(22:49:49) mstyne: haha
(22:49:51) dolson: ChipX86: I think your site says it all
(22:49:57) ChipX86: I'm just that good
(22:50:04) dolson: :)
(22:50:15) Gnuyen: I'm going to fork gaim
(22:50:22) Gnuyen: and call it gingatta
(22:50:25) dolson: I USE A SPOON!
(22:50:32) dolson: Er..
(22:51:03) mstyne: this may seem sacreligious, but i tried "kopete" over the weekend, and gracious, it's nasty.
(22:51:13) SeanEgan: oh really?
(22:51:18) SeanEgan: I've never used it--but it looks nice
(22:51:30) mstyne: well, aside from the fact that i couldn't log into any of my accounts... : )
(22:51:37) mstyne: yes, it *looks* very nice
(22:51:39) chris__: haha
(22:51:40) ChipX86: haha
(22:52:15) dolson: mstyne: I did that too a few weeks back
(22:52:23) dolson: No, wait
(22:52:24) mstyne: i liked the MSN-esque popups from the menu bar though. then again, running KDE (Sean smacks me at this point) i can't use the gaim-applet
(22:52:49) dolson: It wasn't Kopte... I tried that other Gaim fork... What's it called..
(22:52:52) SeanEgan: mstyne: gaimosd is a neat plugin
(22:52:55) SeanEgan: dolson: everybuddy?
(22:52:56) dolson: Everybuddy.
(22:52:58) dolson: Yeah
(22:53:01) SeanEgan: kopete isn't a Gaim fork
(22:53:07) dolson: Close enough
(22:53:09) mstyne: sean would also smack me for using slack, but that's another story
(22:53:12) dolson: It's an imitation
(22:53:13) Gnuyen: haha
(22:53:20) mstyne: and for calling Gaim gAIM, etc.
(22:53:27) SeanEgan: eb has actually making progress of late
(22:53:48) SeanEgan: progress at making it more like Gaim
(22:53:50) mstyne: but sean, it's not really necessary, that's what i don't get
(22:53:57) Gnuyen: wtf
(22:53:58) dolson: SeanEgan: That shouldn't be too hard...
(22:54:05) mstyne: when i heard about eb, i was like, um, okay, why?
(22:54:06) Gnuyen: they have actually been working on everybuddy?
(22:54:08) Gnuyen: i thought it died
(22:54:16) SeanEgan: Gnuyen: oh no, not at all
(22:54:18) Gnuyen: everybuddy had a lot more press then gaim
(22:54:29) SeanEgan: Gnuyen: what are you talking about?
(22:54:57) mstyne: the only reason i ever heard of everybuddy was because i was a gaim user : )
(22:55:03) Gnuyen: They had storys about everybuddy on slashdot =P
(22:55:05) ChipX86: same here
(22:55:17) Gnuyen: since they were lucky enough to have their gpl violated haha
(22:55:31) mstyne: speaking of slashdot, i got my 25th karma point today, so i can start abusing my authority
(22:55:48) beez_gaim: ooh, karma whoring
(22:55:49) SeanEgan: Gnuyen: our gpl is violated too
(22:55:56) ***beez_gaim has mod points
(22:55:57) SeanEgan: we get on slashdot for cool stuff
(22:56:07) SeanEgan: like AOL threatening us
(22:56:11) mstyne: hehehe
(22:56:12) ChipX86: always fun
(22:56:12) Gnuyen: thats true
(22:56:18) Gnuyen: but that was after everybuddy got violated heeh
(22:56:20) lazer entered the room.
(22:56:32) beez_gaim: "you guys suck because you wrote a better linux messaging client than us"
(22:56:38) mstyne: i'll call up Steve C. and get him to bust your chops so you can have some more press
(22:56:45) SeanEgan: hehe
(22:56:47) chris__: the aol aim client for linux is a joke
(22:56:54) mstyne: "Yo, Steve-o!"
(22:56:56) chris__: *aol's
(22:56:56) Gnuyen: It's not a joke
(22:56:58) Gnuyen: it's better
(22:57:01) Gnuyen: it has ads
(22:57:01) ChipX86: it's a threat
(22:57:04) iamemel: hahaha
(22:57:04) lazer: in gdb, i wanna set an xbreakpoint(with xbreak) but how do i tell it the function, function() doesn't work, and baseclass->function() doesn't either, says is not defined
(22:57:10) Gnuyen: When gaim has ads
(22:57:17) Gnuyen: then I will know it's a real professional application
(22:57:20) SeanEgan: mstyne: actually, we'd prefer it if maybe you could get Bill G. or Yaho O. to complain... I'm tired of the aim-only sterotype
(22:57:23) Gnuyen: and I will start using it
(22:57:24) mstyne: ads are good for the economy, and they give me something to read when my friends aren't talking to me : )
(22:57:37) chris__: lol
(22:57:38) Gnuyen: lol
(22:57:41) iamemel: loL
(22:57:42) Gnuyen: you pick a name like GAIM
(22:57:48) Gnuyen: and you are sick of the gaim only stereotype =P
(22:57:55) iamemel: good point
(22:57:55) iamemel: haha
(22:57:59) SeanEgan: hush about the name; the name means nothing
(22:58:06) mstyne: hehe
(22:58:09) Gnuyen: it means gaim is not illegally monikered dammit
(22:58:13) SeanEgan: why do people always see "Gaim" in there?
(22:58:17) SeanEgan: I mean
(22:58:24) ***beez_gaim would find it ironic to be sued by napster now
(22:58:28) SeanEgan: when they see "Gaim," why do the "AIM" jump out at them
(22:58:39) mstyne: Sean, how do *you* pronounce Gaim?
(22:58:44) ChipX86: "game"
(22:58:45) SeanEgan: Gaym
(22:58:49) SeanEgan: or Game
(22:58:53) mstyne: that's what i thought.
(22:59:03) ChipX86: why does rpmdp.org no longer have RPM docs?
(22:59:09) SeanEgan: Prof. Head pronounces it Gee-Ay-Eye-Em
(22:59:21) mstyne: my little brother was making all sorts of homo-erotic jokes, and i was like, shut up, or i will DESTROY YOU
(22:59:23) ChipX86: it's now spitting out ads for casinos and showing commercial linux links
(22:59:30) Gnuyen: Ay and Ey sound the same to me
(22:59:43) mstyne: ChipX86 the aol client?
(22:59:50) Gnuyen: should call it #gaim
(22:59:50) ChipX86: no
(22:59:52) ChipX86: rpmdp.org
(22:59:56) mstyne: oh
(23:00:03) Gnuyen: #gaimster
(23:00:19) Gnuyen: wtf happened with that AOL name suit?
(23:00:27) SeanEgan: It was never a lawsuit
(23:00:35) Gnuyen: they just pressured?
(23:00:36) mstyne: sean took out a rocket launcher, and they backed off
(23:00:37) chris__: they just gave you bad looks?
(23:00:46) ChipX86: we gave them a goat and all was well
(23:00:49) SeanEgan: I'm not allowed to talk about it until its over ;)
(23:00:56) Gnuyen: They said f you guys watch we gona block GAIM clients now biotches
(23:01:08) mstyne: yeah, we 0wnZ0r j00
(23:01:12) mstyne: or something to that effect
(23:01:15) iamemel: loL
(23:01:27) beez_gaim: "we'll infest #gaim with our users"
(23:01:34) ChipX86: they already did
(23:01:34) Gnuyen: they are gonna put some rot16 encryption in the oscar protocol
(23:01:37) Gnuyen: and DMCA your ass
(23:01:45) ***ChipX86 points to a couple used-to-be regulars who are now banned
(23:01:45) mstyne: gah, DMCA
(23:01:47) iamemel: Gnuyen: I agree
(23:01:57) SeanEgan: I have utmost respect for AOL
(23:02:08) Gnuyen: I don't
(23:02:09) Gnuyen: their movies suck
(23:02:16) Gnuyen: =P
(23:02:19) iamemel: haha
(23:02:28) beez_gaim: I used to, until it became AOL-TW
(23:02:42) RockinGuitarDude left the room ("Client Exiting").
(23:02:48) chris__: that's when they got better! tw owns cartoon netowkr! :-)
(23:02:59) beez_gaim: and they didn't get the clue after sending me 10000 CDs that I don't want their service
(23:03:06) Gnuyen: And they own dawsons creek?
(23:03:12) iamemel: beez_gaim: 10000, ey?
(23:03:13) ***ChipX86 has a stack of 70 AOL CDs in his drawer
(23:03:16) chris__: eh
(23:03:20) beez_gaim: iamemel: yes
(23:03:22) ***mstyne lied, kopete seems to work now.
(23:03:23) beez_gaim: coasters
(23:03:30) iamemel: I thank aol for all the cd cases and coasters they supply me with
(23:03:36) ChipX86: yep
(23:03:42) ChipX86: those cases are useful
(23:03:43) iamemel: I have no complaint
(23:03:56) SeanEgan: AOL also makes the most compliant AIM client in existence ;)
(23:03:59) ChipX86: and I have a whole collection of old AOL floppies, which work more reliably than any I've purchased within the last few years
(23:04:16) iamemel: haha
(23:04:25) ChipX86: at one ponit, I got a batch of 500 AOL floppies
(23:04:35) SeanEgan: and they do nice open source stuff-- AOLServer, Mozilla, etc.
(23:04:56) chris__: isn't mozilla more of a seperate organization now than it is netscape?
(23:05:00) SeanEgan: at least they're not Trillian
(23:05:57) mstyne: i forgot that AOL and Netscape are one and the same now
(23:05:58) Gnuyen: they pay a LOT of mozila devlopers
(23:05:59) mstyne: so sad

I'm bored.. here is more IRC convo text... (23:06:10) ChipX86: Netscape wasn't doing so well itself anyway (23:06:16) mstyne: very true (23:06:19) Gnuyen: you guys don't like trillain? (23:06:26) lazer: 0x8049ac5 32 application->execute(); // virtual function call (23:06:35) SeanEgan: Gnuyen: it depends on what you mean by Trillian. (23:06:41) lazer: if i output 0x8049ac5, is that the offset in the file, or offset in memory? (23:06:43) SeanEgan: Trillian the program, I don't like (23:07:01) ChipX86: uhhh (23:07:02) SeanEgan: Trillian's developers (at least the one I've dealt with) is nice (23:07:06) ChipX86: this page is taking up several hundred megs of ram (23:07:22) ChipX86: and it's tiny (23:07:23) Gnuyen: does trillian use gaim code? (23:07:25) SeanEgan: Trillian's userbase is so braindead its humorous (23:07:28) SeanEgan: Gnuyen: kinda (23:07:32) Gnuyen: I would have (23:07:35) Gnuyen: if i made trillian (23:07:38) ChipX86: somebody with mozilla, go here: http://www.aucs.org/rpmcenter/RedHat_72_73_Chinese_mini-HOWTO.html (23:07:40) Gnuyen: why does aol hate trillian more than it hates gaim (23:07:43) ChipX86: see if your RAM gets chewed up (23:07:58) chris__: doesn't trillian have a larger user base? (23:07:59) SeanEgan: trillian is closed source, so we have to give them special permission to use it (23:08:04) Gnuyen: works fine for me (23:08:07) ChipX86: odd (23:08:09) Gnuyen: i have chinese stuff installed htough (23:08:13) ChipX86: as do I (23:08:16) Gnuyen: trillian is closed source? (23:08:20) Gnuyen: wtf (23:08:20) Gnuyen: haha (23:08:21) ChipX86: Gnuyen: yes (23:08:29) Gnuyen: why did you guys let them use your code then (23:08:36) SeanEgan: because we're nice? (23:08:38) ChipX86: 205MB for that page. hrm. (23:08:44) Gnuyen: .. (23:08:45) chris__: lol (23:08:47) Gnuyen: that page works fine for me (23:08:55) SeanEgan: they owe their AIM, ICQ and Yahoo connectivity to us (23:08:57) Gnuyen: i'm Mozilla 1.0RC3 i think not the nightly though (23:08:59) mstyne: yeah, loads fine here ChipX86 (23:09:05) Gnuyen: lol (23:09:06) SeanEgan: likewise, we owe our MSN connectivity to them (23:09:07) ChipX86: ok I think I'll upgrade my mozilla soon :) (23:09:08) mstyne: 1.0RC3 as well (23:09:25) ChipX86: still running a CVS shortly before RC2 (23:09:35) chris__: ChipX86: just wait for 1.0, lol (23:09:38) ChipX86: yeah (23:09:44) ChipX86: that's what I've been doing, but that was one weird bug :) (23:09:55) Gnuyen: lol (23:10:02) mstyne: so I couldn't find a Wang corporation logo, so I made my own (23:10:03) Gnuyen: i do mozilla stuff a lot (23:10:09) Gnuyen: so i used to download the nightlies every other day (23:10:11) SeanEgan: Trillian's userbase is insistent on exalting its developers like Gods (23:10:14) mstyne: it actually turned out pretty nice (23:10:17) Gnuyen: It's funny (23:10:24) Gnuyen: because I got involved in mozilla because of a bug haha (23:10:33) Gnuyen: if they didn't have that bug I wouldn't have gotten involved (23:10:38) mstyne: Gnuyen you going to a 1.0 release party?
