Greetings Programs! We're back at it tonight working towards our @pidgin 3.0 Experimental 1 goal! Come on by!! https://twitch.tv/rw_grim https://youtube.com/@rw_grim #OpenSource #OpenSourceLive #C #GTK #IRC #IRCV3

My old #introduction got lost somewhere

German, he/him, 40s, living in Poland (#lodz). I work in IT and do some geeky computer stuff on the side (#usenet, #uucp, #irc)

My main hobby are #ttrpgs (#osr #dnd, #traveller, #shadowrun) and similar (#minipainting, #boardgames) but I also do writing and reading (#fantasy, #sf) and #cooking

I will be complaining about #kids, #cats, lack of #coffee, and the general state of the world

I do get weirdly obsessed with topics sometimes. But don't we all?

I should learn how to use mailing lists and IRC.

Because a.) they have cool people on them, and b.) they are so old that they are essentially immune to the enshittification wafting over the waking world.

My only issue with IRC is that it seems like you have to be constantly connected in order to actually keep track of a conversation? I like COMMODE on SDF because it has a nice room history (as well as a friendly TUI). Any tips are appreciated.

#irc #email #mailinglist

if anyone's interested in an #irc chat about #ttrpg (mostly #osr) and obscure #retrocomputing stuff you could try wilderland.ovh port 6667

also on the web as http://wilderland.ovh:9000

languages are mostly english and german

(alternately accessible via campaignwiki.org port 6667/6697 or https://talk.campaignwiki.org )

Hey everyone, we just released version 0.13.0 of Ibis our #IRCv3 library that we've built for the #IRC support in @pidgin 3!

The big feature in this release is that we're parsing formatting and making it available to users of the library so they can display formatted messages. See the screen shot for what that looks like in Pidgin 3 experimental 2!!

You can find the official release announcement here! https://discourse.imfreedom.org/t/ibis-0-13-0-has-been-released

So @pidgin 3.0 Experimental 2 is due out on Monday and we realized we could probably sneaking message formatting in for #IRCv3 in the last few days.

This still needs some work, but check out the Pidgin 2 vs 3 handling of message formatting...

I thought we fixed the italics stuff in Pidgin 2 awhile, but apparently not.

Anyways this is all spec complaint per https://modern.ircdocs.horse/formatting

If you have any questions, comments, etc feel free!

@sacha hey, I'm having @damaru on the #lispyGopherClimate tomorrow (and @eduardoochs is going to hang out live in #emacsconf on #irc) -

I was just wondering if you had anything you would like to see an early-emacs-days #writer do with #emacs in our community particularly (noting your https://sachachua.com/topic/#topic-index-emacs-and-writing ).

Sorry, gef, for volunteering you for lab experiments ;p

Honestly my goal is to see whether #eev anchors work for his flow, and whether it's-possible to use my own 'easy' graph stuff.
