[04:51] <Squirm> morning
[07:52] <superfly> May the Fourth be with you!
[08:37] <charlvn> hi all, it's friday!
[09:40] <dLimit> May the 4th be with you!
[11:31] <charlvn> dLimit: may the source be with you
[11:34] <dLimit> The source surrounds us and penetrates us and binds the OS together.
[11:37] <charlvn> lol
[11:37] <charlvn> the source is shared by all electronic life forms
[11:38] <charlvn> it flows over the interwebs
[11:38] <charlvn> and if you are silent you can hear it whistling between the binary trees
[13:31] <zeref> hmmmm
[13:31] <zeref> qt vs GTK vs wxwidgets, anybody with experience?
[13:32] <charlvn> qt yes, not the other two
[13:32] <charlvn> so hard to compare :/
[13:32] <tumbleweed> used them all, but none of them very much
[13:33] <zeref> thinking of making a cross platform game...
[13:33] <zeref> i'm leaning towrds qt
[13:34] <tumbleweed> what language?
[13:35] <zeref> python
[13:35] <charlvn> afaik qt looks good in both kde and gnome
[13:35] <charlvn> not sure about the other two but i assume these days it doesn't matter much
[13:36] <zeref> qt on windows?
[13:37] <charlvn> qt works on practically anything
[13:37] <charlvn> although never tried it on osx
[13:38] <charlvn> i heard a whole lot of hype about qt on mobile devices but don't have any experience with that either
[13:38] <zeref> kk
[13:40] <tumbleweed> Qt does a lot to help you write cross-platform code, but that'll benefit C++ more than Python
[13:40] <tumbleweed> all 3 of those options work fine on widnows, OSX, linux
[13:42] <charlvn> in python qt is only used as a gui lib
[13:42] <charlvn> i think
[13:44] <tumbleweed> well, you can use all the other bits if you want to, but why would you :)
[13:44] <charlvn> yeah exactly
[13:52] <zeref> cool, thanks guys
[14:56] <superfly> zeref: if you're writing a game, why not PyGame?
[14:57] <tumbleweed> yeah, our experience from pyweek is that to get a python game to be user-friendly cross-platform (easy to install for users) you pretty much have to stick to pygame and write your own widgets (or bundle a pure-python widget library)
[15:28] <mazal> Afternoon all
[15:29] <mazal> I am using xchat , where can I set it to automatically join certain channels ?
[15:31] <bakuman> hi mazal
[15:32] <bakuman> mazal : Network List -> edit the relevant network -> Favourite Channels
[15:32] <mazal> aaaah , found it !!!!
[15:33] <mazal> I didn't find that , but I saw when I right-click on the channel name ( at the left) I get the option to set to auto-join
[15:34] <superfly> ohi
[15:35] <mazal> Lo superfly
[15:35] <mazal> Now I just need to find where I can put in my identify password to run automatically
[15:37] <superfly> mazal: is there not a field in the IRC network configuration?
[15:37] <mazal> Not that I can find no
[15:38] <mazal> Prob looking in the wrong place :P
[15:41] <superfly> Sadly, I can't tell you where to look, as I don't use X-Chat, but I do recall it being possible.
[15:48] <superfly> mazal: did that work?
[16:04] <mazal> Nope superfly , I couldn't find the setting
[18:21] <magespawn> Good evening everyone
[18:33] <mazal> Evening magespawn
[18:34] <magespawn> I don't believe we have met before
[18:35] <mazal> I was here quite a while back , but can't remember you from then no
[18:36] <magespawn> I first came about two years ago, but only recently have I been coming regularly
[18:37] <magespawn> Where you from?
[18:38] <mazal> I'm from Cullinan , small town about 40km east of PTA
[18:38] <mazal> You ?
[18:39] <magespawn> I have been there. Originally JHB, now I live in Hluhluwe,KZN
[18:43] <magespawn> I think I did my code 10 there when I was Tech in Pretoria.
[18:44] <mazal> Now we can't even do licensing here anymore
[18:45] <magespawn> Ahhh one of those things
[18:54] <mazal> My system is noticeably slower after today's update :-(
[19:09] <magespawn> Right back again
[19:10] <mazal> Time to crash
