03:00.08 | ShockValue | i have k3b installed, but that looks more like a burner suite than a solid ripper... is there a good choice for ripping? |
03:00.21 | HuntsMan | ShockValue: KAudioCreator |
03:00.23 | swim | and when I go into dekorator Ive tried browsing to that file which is a tar.gz but dekorator says its the wrong file type... so I then extracted it into .kde/share/apps/deKorator/themes/ and it still doesnt find it |
03:00.33 | karuna_murti | swim: what version of dekorator u use? |
03:00.41 | ScytheBlade1 | ShockValue, if you're ripping audio, grimp (gnome app) comes *highly recommended* |
03:00.50 | ShockValue | HuntsMan: does that interface with cdparanoia, do you know by chance? |
03:00.56 | swim | karuna_murti: 0.3 |
03:01.06 | HuntsMan | ShockValue: mmm, i think yes, you should check :) |
03:01.16 | ShockValue | i was kind of trying to stay with kde/qt type apps |
03:01.19 | karuna_murti | well it seems the theme is for 0.1 |

03:02.05 | ScytheBlade1 | ShockValue, then stay with KDE/Qt, but really, grip does the job better than anything else I've found |

06:38.14 | ijwyn | anisX: I think you misunderstood nige from the start, he never said he had the same problem as you, he was just describing his own issue which also happens to be panel-related |
06:38.23 | nige_ | no |
06:38.32 | nige_ | each background is for a different monitor |

06:39.52 | ijwyn | ah, the wonders of the internet, heheh |
06:40.05 | nige_ | oh yes |
06:40.32 | anisX | hmm |
06:40.40 | anisX | im going to edit kickercc manually |
06:41.02 | ijwyn | nige_: I suspect that, for some odd reason, your bar won't display more then four application tabs? |
06:41.09 | chavo | nige_, that isn't working here either |
06:41.21 | ijwyn | have you tried launching another app and see if that one appears too, or does it also stay off the bar? |
06:41.29 | a_thing | nige_: try unchecking the multiple desktop/screen stuff, hitting apply, then redo it |
06:41.31 | chavo | but i have a panel on each screen so doesn't affect me |
06:41.40 | chavo | doesn't do anything |
06:41.43 | nige_ | okay i will try that, |
06:42.15 | anisX | yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
06:42.24 | nige_ | you might be right about the 4 applications, any idea why that is |
06:42.32 | anisX | dcop kicker kicker restart , i just edit add "Size" and transparent=true |
06:42.58 | a_thing | nige_: also try making your taskbar bigger |
06:43.09 | nige_ | okay |
06:43.46 | nige_ | okay |
06:43.51 | nige_ | its now at 100% |
06:43.56 | nige_ | still seems to be the same problem |
06:43.57 | nige_ | :S |
06:43.58 | a_thing | IIRC there's a setting in KControl somewhere that controls what happens on taskbar overflow |
06:46.26 | ijwyn | nige_: nope, no idea why it would do that, mine just squeezes everything in... might be a default setting in your distro, I dunno |
06:46.41 | nige_ | hmm okay |
06:46.43 | nige_ | it just seems odd |
06:46.50 | ijwyn | yeah, I agree |
06:47.12 | anisX | i assume its not kde fault..maybe distro faults |
06:47.22 | ijwyn | although I figure there must be a way to change that setting, but I have no idea how |
06:47.27 | nige_ | okay |
06:47.56 | chavo | nige_, looks like a bug in the taskbar |
06:48.06 | ijwyn | might be that too |
06:48.13 | chavo | you can try adding another panel and putting it on the second screen |
06:48.24 | chavo | that's what I have here and it works great |

10:04.52 | zi99y | yo |
10:05.19 | zi99y | anyone have a clue how I can change the window behaviour when I use the scroll wheel on a background window? |
10:05.31 | benJIman | zi99y: in what way? |
10:05.32 | zi99y | I want it not to steal focus, like the way gnome does it |
10:06.12 | benJIman | don't think you can do that |
10:06.18 | zi99y | so I can be working on the top-level window, and use the scroll wheel on a window behind, but maintain focus on the top window |
10:06.37 | benJIman | it doesn't bring it to front, only focuses it |
10:06.43 | zi99y | yeah thats right |
10:07.06 | benJIman | you're effectively clicking in the window, and policy is click to focus |
10:07.09 | zi99y | but I got used to the gnome way, so I don't have to click or scroll on the top window again to resume typeing |
10:07.20 | ganymed_ | is there any relation between kwallet and kvpnc |
10:07.21 | ganymed_ | ? |
10:07.32 | zi99y | hmm, no but it's different from a click because it doesn't move to the front |
10:08.16 | zi99y | ganymed_: are you trying to store passwords for kvpnc? |
10:08.25 | benJIman | right click does't bring to front either |

10:09.03 | benJIman | zi99y: you could always use focus follows mouse |
10:10.58 | benJIman | but other than that don't think you can do anything about it |
10:10.58 | zi99y | yeah I've tried that and I'm not too keen |
10:10.58 | zi99y | but thanks, I really appreciate your input |
10:10.59 | zi99y | I'm a recent kde convert! |
10:11.00 | ganymed_ | zi00y: kvpnc asks me for a passwd though i have entered in in the conf dialogue. vpnc works. so i thought it might be a problem with the kde password management... |
10:11.00 | benJIman | personally I like kde's way, I often for example start scrolling a backgroun web page and then decide I want to use findasyou type or something |
10:11.16 | benJIman | ganymed_: I don't think kvpnc uses the wallet |
10:11.39 | zi99y | ganymed_: sorry I don't use kvpnc so I'm not sure# |

10:14.03 | |lostbyte| | so i searched alot.. |
10:14.04 | zi99y | on kubuntu it's /etc/kde3/kdm/... |

10:15.41 | benJIman | no exec? |
10:15.43 | |lostbyte| | so where do i add this -nolisten tcp ? |
10:15.58 | benJIman | |lostbyte|: it will allmost certainly be there by default, unless your distro is really bad |
10:16.19 | |lostbyte| | benJIman: I searched and found something like Session=/usr/share/config/kdm/Xsession |
10:16.26 | |lostbyte| | should i go there ? |
10:16.37 | benJIman | |lostbyte|: search for ServerArgsLocal in that file to edit the arguments |
10:16.39 | qupada | zi99y: rlocate uses a kernel module and some fancy stuff to do real-time updates |
10:16.44 | benJIman | as I said nolisten tcp will be there almost certainly |
10:17.10 | |lostbyte| | benJIman: which file ? /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc |

16:03.33 | cromo | is it possible to set konsole to not notify about the visual bell event in case the konsole window in which the event happend is currently active? |

16:05.29 | cromo | actually I meant focus |
16:05.47 | cromo | i.e. I am using yakuake that uses konsole |
16:06.02 | cromo | so it doesn't use konsole itself, but kio afik |
16:06.15 | cromo | thus, it doesn't use konsole tab's, but its own |

18:45.49 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: Gentoo offers two sets of KDE ebuilds: the monolithic ebuilds that correspond to the modules KDE.org puts out and which will not allow you to merge/unmerge specific applications, and the split ebuilds, which will allow you to do just that |
18:46.24 | Z10N0101 | Ouuch! Thant means I can not unmerge single packages |
18:46.28 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: If you had emerged kde-meta instead of kde or kdemultimedia-meta instead of kdemultimedia, you could do "unmerge juk" |
18:47.12 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: The *-meta packages just pulling in all the seperate packages from the split ebuilds, whereas the non-meta packages are just the modules as they come from kde.org |

18:50.11 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: KDE 3.5.2 will be released shortly which will provide you with a good opportunity to replace the monolithic with the split ebuilds if you desire |
18:51.11 | Z10N0101 | When is this update gonna come up |
18:51.54 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: It will likely be released some time next week; how long Gentoo will need to mark it as stable I do not know |

18:55.55 | annma | you? |
18:56.05 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: When KDE 3.5.2 is released the corresponding ebuilds will be masked by the ~arch keyword, i.e. ~x86. And yes, you can certainly unmask and install them, which is what I will do. |
18:56.57 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: Basically, you want to be able to install/uninstall seperate applications; the split ebuilds will allow you to do that. You currently have the monolithic ebuilds installed which you need to remove in order to replace them with the splits. KDE 3.5.2 is a good opportunity for that since you need to recompile KDE on that occasion anyway. |
18:57.29 | Sho_ | Z10N0101: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-config.xml and specifically http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-split-ebuilds.xml offer additional information on the KDE split ebuilds in Gentoo Portage |

21:14.29 | Q-collective | StevenR: a lot of opensource code is free code though, so that might explain the confusion |

21:14.39 | Sho_ | but a variant |
21:14.42 | Sho_ | bah, I had that font once, too |
21:14.53 | StevenR | Sho_: nothing wrong with taking public domain code if it works |
21:15.06 | HamishTPB | the font looks like something I used in my Atari days |
21:15.18 | main | can public domain code be GPLd ? |
21:15.46 | HamishTPB | in fact I just remembered where I seen it - I did use it on my desktop on my TT |

21:16.22 | StevenR | main: yes, but it's kindof an odd issue...if I take some PD code and release it under the GPL, you could still just go get the PD code if you wanted to not be bound by the GPL |
21:16.23 | HamishTPB | but that is not it |
21:16.28 | Blissex | main: thats not really a question for this group. |

21:17.21 | PhilRod | Blissex: it seems to be off-topic hour at the moment, so I wouldn't worry about it :-) |

21:17.29 | HamishTPB | Sho_: ah |
21:17.33 | Sho_ | conga: Unfortunately I may not have it any more |

21:55.52 | Blissex | HamishTPB: well, KDE does something to avoid problems with large numbers of fonts, by sharing font tables etc. where possible, but it is still not good. |
21:56.11 | HamishTPB | conga: I just use the KDE font installer or if I want to look at a specific font I load it in the KDE font viewer |
21:56.21 | conga | oh |
21:57.07 | HamishTPB | Blissex: if a font is not it use by any running app will it really matter except when I am in a font selection dialogue? If it makes a big difference to anything I probably will tidy them up |
21:57.52 | HamishTPB | Sho_: the KDE Font installer in the control panel is not too bad - could do with more features but it works ok |
21:58.00 | benJIman | youcan also install fonts with fonts:? |
21:58.02 | Blissex | HamishTPB: it does matter a bit, or more than a bit, depending on circumstances. If there was a font server like for X it would be OK, but KDE uses Xft2, and that loads a table of all fonts in each process. |

21:58.34 | Sho_ | HamishTPB: What I'm really looking for is the ability to tag/group fonts and load/unload groups, as well as more sophisticated preview facilities |
21:58.40 | Blissex | Sho_: for example even the font selection dialog is pretty annoying, does not allow selecting fonts by foundry for example. |
21:58.56 | Sho_ | HamishTPB: Essentially what the good 'ol Adobe Type Manager did, or that nice Linotype app for OS X |

22:08.14 | Blissex | hoewever as to fonts at least Fredesktop .org got the Vera fonts developed, and that was very much needed. |
22:08.32 | Sho_ | Blissex: although they do seem to be badly hinted |
22:08.41 | Cilindrador | ive installed ubuntu and then kubuntu-desktop. how can i update Breezy all the way to 3.5.1? |
22:08.41 | Blissex | Sho_: they aren't hinted. |
22:08.48 | Sho_ | Blissex: q.e.d ;) |
22:08.56 | benJIman | Blissex: yeah they look rather bad compared to microsoft fonts |
22:08.58 | Cilindrador | what url do i need to add to the repos to make this work? |
22:09.14 | PhilRod | Cilindrador: best to ask in #kubuntu |
22:09.18 | Blissex | Sho_: sometimes I think we/KDE/... should do a collection and pay some starving font guy in some developing country to add hints to a few common freeware fonts. |

22:10.00 | benJIman | Blissex: there are patent issues with the BCI though |
22:10.08 | Sho_ | Blissex: Don't underestimate the effort |
22:10.26 | Blissex | Sho_: it could costhow much? $100,000? |
22:10.26 | HamishTPB | Blissex / Sho_ I don't know about rendering fonts but I am sure it would be a good excercise to try building a font manager - I am trying to learn KDE (Qt) programming |
22:10.56 | Sho_ | Blissex: Much more. Microsoft Typography spent millions in the two-digit range on the new font package for Vista. |
22:10.58 | Blissex | Sho_: the problem with the MS web fonts is the irritanting licence. |
22:11.08 | HamishTPB | Blissex / Sho_ assuming that it would just involve reading a header for info anyway |
22:11.55 | Sho_ | Blissex: Verdana or Tahoma probably contain tens of thousands of lines of hinting code |
22:11.55 | HamishTPB | Sho_: wow - Verdana is one of the few m$ fonts I actually like |

22:12.00 | Blissex | Sho_: but you can trick that. By supplying hand made bitmaps at the right font sizes. |
22:12.23 | Blissex | Sho_: in any case tens of thousands of lines is nothing to be afraid of nowadays. |
22:12.27 | Sho_ | HamishTPB: I thought along the same lines once, but got so scared by the font stack cruft that I gave up |
22:12.36 | Sho_ | HamishTPB: The KDE/Qt UI is the easy part |
22:12.52 | Blissex | Sho_: in part it is also the patent issues, but also the lack of availability of good TTF editors. |
22:12.56 | HamishTPB | Blissex: hehe - Old school the way it used to be. Did anyone here ever use TOS/GEM on the Atari - fonts were hours, days, weeks, months.. of fun |
22:13.21 | Blissex | Sho_: but there is another solution, to use Type1 fonts and spend more time tuning the autohinter. |
22:13.37 | Blissex | Sho_: for example there is a little known detail about Type1 fonts.... |
22:13.53 | Sho_ | Blissex: I think the best solution would be a machine that manages to make 300 dpi OLED display panels out of kitchen garbage |
22:14.03 | Sho_ | Blissex: If everyone had one, the autohinter would be OK |

22:14.36 | Sho_ | But actually it is getting easier as display resolutions rize |
22:14.37 | HamishTPB | Sho_: not at the moment - I am old school - building some tutorial apps in Kdevelop was my first attempt at "modern" programming |
22:14.38 | Sho_ | *rise |
22:14.46 | Blissex | Sho_: the 'type1' rasterizer in X is not awesome, but the 'freetype' rasterizer can do both Type1 and TTF fonts, and does pretty well on the Type1 fonts. And Type1 fonts are far more common and more open than TTF. |
22:15.14 | Blissex | Sho_: and yes, I'd like to have one of 200DPI and more displays that some companies make. |
22:15.15 | Sho_ | Blissex: I do have quite a few Type1 fonts, yap |
22:15.25 | HamishTPB | Sho_ / Blissex - perhaps a "standard" would be better than trying to wrangle lots of formats. You know as soon as I typed that last bit I seen the flaws :P |
22:15.29 | benJIman | Sho_: consumer display resolutions havn't increased in 10 years |

22:15.39 | Sho_ | benJIman: Not true, actually |
22:15.52 | Sho_ | benJIman: Many laptop screens are beyond the good ol' 90 dpi |
22:15.55 | Blissex | benJIman: not quite true -- laptops have it different. Easy to find 130 DPI laptops. |
22:16.00 | benJIman | my current monitor does about 120-150dpi , you could buy a monitor in 1995 that did that |
22:16.02 | Sho_ | yap, see Blissex |
22:16.04 | Blissex | benJIman: the problem is commercial. |
22:16.21 | Sho_ | benJIman: But not in the consumer class |
22:16.37 | benJIman | Sho_: yes, CRTs then were about that res |
22:16.40 | benJIman | CRTs still are |
22:16.43 | benJIman | nothing has improved |
22:16.43 | Blissex | benJIman: because MS Windows has non scalable fonts still and non scalable icons, low DPI is sold as an _advantage_. |
22:17.15 | Blissex | benJIman: many people think higher than 75DPI makes the screen unreadable. Thank you MS... |
22:17.32 | Sho_ | Blissex: Well, they do have a two-mode scale ... "Small fonts" and "Large fonts" is the selection IIRC ;) |
22:17.35 | benJIman | vista has SVG icons |
22:17.42 | anisX | what is AMOR ? on screen creature ? |
22:17.47 | Blissex | thats why BTW 19" LCDs are overwhelmingly 1280x1024 like 17" ones. |

22:18.32 | benJIman | most windows apps assume 96dpi |
22:18.34 | Sho_ | HamishTPB: Well, KDE doesn't do much better in terms of resolution independence |
22:18.35 | HamishTPB | anisX: Amusing Misuse Of Resources - yes - just a silly toy |
22:18.36 | benJIman | I think khtml does too |
22:18.44 | Sho_ | The only UI that has some sort of support for that is OS Xs |
22:19.00 | HamishTPB | Sho_: not really played with it much, which is odd for me :) |
22:19.13 | Blissex | HamishTPB: ahhh but thats not quite right either, because there are little known MS Windows setting that allow people to scale a bit better than usual. But they are little known. The defaults are all that matter for most people (why is IE so popular? because it is the default) |
22:19.32 | Blissex | Sho_: and NeWS of course :-) |
22:19.52 | Sho_ | Blissex: And Fresco, and, and, and - yes ;9 |
22:19.54 | HamishTPB | Blissex: but when I set to an accurate dpi for my screen and res lots of apps didn't scale/redraw properly in win |
22:20.17 | HamishTPB | Blissex: and yes - laziness and acceptance of "default" is a huge problem :( |

22:28.47 | HamishTPB | Sho_: Apple make excellent screens |
22:29.03 | Sho_ | benJIman: It's about quality, not size. The Thinkpads are out of the question due to their lack of internal optical drives. |
22:29.07 | Tm_T | Sho_: yeah, 12" mac lappy could be perfect to me |
22:29.12 | Sho_ | HamishTPB: Actually the display is the worst about the iBook |
22:29.13 | HamishTPB | Sho_: my old mactop (which mostly gathers dust these days) looks brilliant still |
22:29.17 | benJIman | Sho_: the dock has an internal optical drive |

22:29.23 | HamishTPB | Sho_: I have a very old mactop :) |
22:29.28 | benJIman | and without the dock they're tiny |
22:29.44 | benJIman | even with the dock they're only normal laptop size |
22:29.48 | benJIman | if not smaller |
22:30.01 | Sho_ | benJIman: i don't want to frill with a dock, I want a self-contained unit. I hate nothing more than carrying around a number of peripherals to get functionality I feel is essential. |
22:30.11 | Sho_ | benJIman: Hence, the 12" iBook really floats my boat ;-) |

22:30.19 | wasynyt-asleep | what about the price? ibook goes for ~1000 |

23:05.06 | HamishTPB | Blissex: reading your article atm - but I am still not clear on one thing - does having a lot of fonts in the system at all cause any performance hit? I use a lot of fonts for DTP projects (I usually stick to something like your guidelines for screen fonts and only have one or two for that) |

23:06.08 | HamishTPB | Blissex: I don't mind slight slowdown in a font menu or whatever because I want the choice - but is having them on the system at all causing a problem? |
23:06.10 | crlouis | thanks! |
23:06.13 | HamishTPB | StevenR: Yeah :) |
23:06.14 | fatejudger | is there a way to have one kicker panel transparent and the other one not? |
23:06.15 | Blissex | HamishTPB: there are three memory impacts... |
23:06.36 | Blissex | HamishTPB: 1) all configured fonts are listed in a single in memory table. |
23:07.00 | Blissex | HamishTPB: 2) fonts that get actually used in any way have their descriptors loaded too, never removed. |
23:08.40 | Blissex | HamishTPB: 3) rendered glyphs are cached, and the cache is per process and fixed size. Which means that if you _use_ lots of fonts they compete heavily for the font cache. |
23:09.18 | Blissex | HamishTPB: actually I suspect that at least in some versions of FontConfig/Xft2 all font descriptors are loaded at the start. |
23:09.35 | HamishTPB | so my main problem in "everyday" use is number 1 - for each font installed I am using xKB per font just to index the list somewhere? |
23:09.59 | HamishTPB | Blissex: and when I start using a font based app I get hit by 2 and 3 |

23:11.09 | morexyz | hi, how does konqueror substitutes fonts? |
23:11.13 | Blissex | HamishTPB: in theory what I say above is _per process_. Each process has its own copy of all the font data: a completely copy of the font table, and then of the descriptor, and then of glyphs. |
23:12.10 | HamishTPB | Blissex: so the fact that I can choose any of my numerous fonts for e.g. my IRC client (kvirc) is adding to the memory use of the application? |
23:12.38 | Hokinon | Hi peeps how do I change the kdm login theme? |
23:12.54 | Blissex | HamishTPB: again for KDE it is a bit different. The default however is that each app loads a copy of the complete font table, etc. |
23:13.19 | Blissex | HamishTPB: the complete font table is the list of all fonts in all directories listed in '/etc/*.conf' |
23:13.40 | HamishTPB | Blissex: ok - so using KDE and Kapps a lot means I *am* adding that overhead? |
23:13.48 | Blissex | HamishTPB: KDE does things a bit differently (that is much better) if you use 'kdeinit' and 'kwrapper' |

23:38.00 | fatejudger | so quite a difference |
23:38.07 | morexyz | why is that swearing? |

23:38.26 | morexyz | i do presentations in front of many people, i need to look serious:) |
23:38.52 | fatejudger | morexyz: MS Office is by far the most stable in the more unused feature department |
23:39.12 | fatejudger | morexyz: equation editor and MS Access are still leaders in MS Office |
23:39.23 | HamishTPB | morexyz: I personally don't find anything in msoffice better but as I said I don't use office apps that deeply so maybe there are features I am unaware of. I find the KOffice presentation app pretty good though |
23:39.27 | morexyz | yes, their equation editor is handy |
23:39.35 | Sho_ | fatejudger: Table of Contents generation is much better in Writer than in KWord, for example |
23:39.41 | simian__ | can koffice use msoffice formats? |
23:39.47 | morexyz | somewhat, simian |

23:39.53 | fatejudger | simian__: it can read .doc |
23:39.55 | Blissex | fatejudger: MS Acces is not bad, but Kexi is not that bad either. But Amaya also has a very good MathML equation editor. |
23:40.03 | fatejudger | Kexi is great |
23:40.09 | fatejudger | but it doesn't have very good printable output |
23:40.16 | fatejudger | as far as report generation goes |
23:40.29 | HamishTPB | benJIman - can you supply some text to test the kerning problem you were describing? |
23:40.55 | Sho_ | fatejudger: Mail merge is another |
23:41.02 | Blissex | fatejudger: well yes, MS Office is a more polished (and a lot, a lot faster) than most opensource alternatives. |
23:41.17 | HamishTPB | I have to admit on a quick test it is not great so far in KWord |
23:41.18 | benJIman | fatejudger: here is pdf output from oowriter http://bw.uwcs.co.uk/~bw/oowriter.pdf and here is the same text output from kword http://bw.uwcs.co.uk/~bw/koffice.pdf spot the difference? |
23:41.26 | fatejudger | Blissex: I wouldn't say it's faster |
23:41.32 | fatejudger | Blissex: especially compared to KOffice |
23:41.42 | fatejudger | Blissex: boot time and feature execution are about the same |
23:41.42 | HamishTPB | benJIman yikes |
23:41.45 | Blissex | fatejudger: it is way, way faster and with a much smaller footprint. |
23:42.26 | fatejudger | Blissex: KOffice is modular though, so it inherently has a small footprint |
23:42.34 | fatejudger | benJIman: yeah, I see it |
23:42.40 | fatejudger | benJIman: I don't output to PDF, so I must not have noticed |
23:42.41 | simian__ | Blissex: small footprint, do you mean uses less memory? |
23:42.49 | benJIman | fatejudger: any print output is the same |
23:42.50 | Blissex | fatejudger: in theory, in practice it is still a lot, a lot bigger. |
23:42.57 | Blissex | simian__: yes... |

23:52.14 | Steven_M | Blissex: do you have any problem with programs not appearing on the task bar? |
23:52.31 | t35t0r | is there a graphical udev setup application being worked on with kcontrol? |
23:53.02 | Blissex | Steven_M: I am currently running 32 bit, but it seemed OK at the time. Note that there are several taskbar options for choosing which ones appear or not. |
23:55.04 | Blissex | t35t0r: 'udev' is still a bit unstable, and also I suspect it is part of a job-security-through-obscurity strategy. |
23:55.15 | t35t0r | HAHAHAHAHA |
23:55.27 | t35t0r | job security through obscurity?!! |
23:55.30 | t35t0r | are you kidding me |
23:55.53 | t35t0r | Blissex, are you a kde dev? |
23:56.22 | Blissex | t35t0r: no, but let's say I am a developer in general. And one that stupidly does not practice that principle. |
23:56.51 | t35t0r | so you think you should be practicing that principple? |
23:57.20 | Blissex | t35t0r: if I were not an idiot I should :-) Employers reward it very well. |
23:58.00 | t35t0r | hah ok .. whatever man i'm checking sf.net |
