01:00.46cmilessomeone else still alive?
01:01.35resuDaedyeah
01:02.25cmilesjust trying this irc thing. do you always need ident running?
01:02.43resuDaeddepends on the server
01:02.46Clyphoxwell
01:03.03Clyphoxident is just cause some servers admins are dumb
01:03.23Clyphoxident is a very very old standard.. hardly used nowadays.. like finger
01:03.59Clyphoxand its a crux too.. there are no "safe" ident servers due to the fact that no one simply cares about fixing it cause it sucks
01:04.06Clyphox</rant>
01:04.39resuDaedI hope that answered your question :-)
01:04.40cmilesyes. tried XChat as client to start. Always said something bad about user. but KSirc is OK
01:05.02ClyphoxI would recommend gaim cause I'm lazy
01:05.20ClyphoxI like text based irc clients really though.. like irssi/BitchX
01:05.29resuDaedI woudl recommend a console based client because I'm just plain old fashioned
01:05.39cmilesseen the nam

18:58.38ClyphoxAny improvements (barr the new instability function) ?
19:00.08chrismilLooks a bit prettier. I'll let you know on the instability. It can't seem to make up its mind on where the screen divisions are - changes with each keystroke.
19:00.51Clyphoxweird
19:01.05Clyphoxas long as it works :-)
19:01.06chrismilWhat's your favourite client?
19:01.50Clyphoxfor icq/msn gaim
19:01.57Clyphoxirc irssi or BitchX
19:02.26Clyphox"screen is your friend" heehee
19:03.06chrismilSo thats what BitchX refers too!
19:04.13Jensoni dont like BitchX i kept sending priv msgs to the wrong ppl with the tab complete

19:18.22JDchrismil: are you refering to the BitchX is your new friend
19:18.25gregjLeeds: not too bad, still waiting for ppl
19:18.58JensonBitchX is just a source of embarrassment ith its evil tab completetion
19:19.33chrismilNope just that I've seen 'BitchX' cropping up and wondered what it referred to, was it someones joke.
19:19.57chrismilIts down at the moment.
19:20.29chrismilI'll stick here in gaim for a while :-)
19:21.04Jensonchrismil: irssi i find best for console, and xchat for X...i use irssi

19:24.17chrismilmessages were bad. took me a while to understand it was lake of ident that was stopping me working. tough for a first timer to IRC.

19:24.45Jensonooooh first time on irc fun!
19:25.07chrismilyeah
19:25.10stephenits probably best just to DENY (rather than DROP) port 113, means it doesn't have to timeout for you to get on IRC
19:25.17Jensoni got introduced to i because my mate was obsessed with MS Comic Chat, i however always prefered to chat in text
19:25.54JDJenson: so how did you meet gllug?
19:26.56Jensonerm, i discovered linux on extremetech.com and somehow ended up here, having not used irc for years
19:27.17chrismilstephen: I found xchat just looped saying USER: additional parameters needed (or something like that)
19:27.35stephenodd
19:28.50chrismilSo far I've stuck with NAT rather than commissioning a firewall box; perhaps the error is different.

20:35.26WethrinIt was after the Great Flood, and Noah had told all the animals to go forth and multiply. A year later he went around and saw that all the animals has reproduced, apart from a pair of adders. He asked them what was wrong, and they replied "Nothing. Bring us some wood, and we'll be fine." So Noah goes and chops down a tree and brings the wood to the snakes.
20:36.06WethrinSure enough, a year later, he returns and there were lots of baby snakes. The adders turn to him and say "See, there wasn't a problem. Even adders can multiply using log tables."

21:56.05LeedsHave I Got News For You repeat from years ago... the first item is about the possibility of peace in NI, IRA saying "yes, we suppose we'll give up our guns, but don't push us on it" and so on
21:56.35Clyphoxgreat show
21:56.57Leedsit's actually quite freaky how appropriate topic shows can be years later... there's a Yes (Prime) Minister episode about national ID cards, for fscks sake :-)

22:13.22Leedswell, I'm obviously watching it on the TiVo...
22:14.50Leedsand for further twists... the character on the show is watching a show on her TiVo which mirrors the story on the show I'm watching on my TiVo (on purpose, of course)
22:14.51murbLeeds: no camera men behind you? :)
22:15.18murbTiVo conspiracy
