[09:15:56] <boru> JFC, recaptcha is such a pain in the arse.
[09:16:13] <boru> Any browser recommendations to replace palemoon?

[10:40:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> coffee++
[10:40:39] <Bender> karma - coffee: 4253
[10:46:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> well shit. coffee not working very well this morning. shouldn't have stayed up late last night reading.
[11:24:42] <AndyTheAbsurd> boru: I've looked a bit at Waterfox, seemed okay.
[11:25:41] <AndyTheAbsurd> I've got too much time invested in getting Pale Moon the way I like it to want to change :(
[11:26:33] <boru> Yeah, it just stops working with various stuff often, now, and then there's the performance issues.
[11:28:05] <AndyTheAbsurd> "stops working with various stuff often" is as much a result of web designers/developers only targeting and testing on Chrome as it is a problem with Pale Moon itself.
[11:28:45] <boru> Yeah, I agree, but it's the same outcome for me as a user, either way.
[11:28:49] <AndyTheAbsurd> (Seriously...I think I'm the only dev here who regularly uses a browser OTHER THAN Chrome before QA tells me something doesn't work.)
[11:29:10] <boru> And the future of PM is uncertain and probably low priority for moonchild and co. with basilisk on the horizon.
[11:29:20] <boru> And tobin is a total bellend.
[11:29:28] <AndyTheAbsurd> He is
[11:29:37] <AndyTheAbsurd> I actually tried to work with him for a while
[11:29:48] <AndyTheAbsurd> then he ticked off me to the infinitieth power
[11:30:11] <AndyTheAbsurd> and as I left, I send a message to Moonchild saying "I'll be happy to come back once Tobin is gone".
[11:30:34] <boru> Yeah, I think he's just gone through life without ever having had his arse handed to him.
[11:31:01] <AndyTheAbsurd> that was BEFORE his demand to the BSD port to remove official PM branding
[11:31:20] <AndyTheAbsurd> which IMO *mostly* went badly because he came in phrasing it as a demand
[11:31:27] <boru> I'd say the project has lost many a contributor for the same reason. He's not a curmudgeon, he is an obnoxious, petulant twat.
[11:32:00] <boru> Yeah, I was glad to see someone else take on the FreeBSD port, because I didn't want to be responsible anymore.
[11:32:14] <boru> But that exchange with NetBSD was incredibly stupid.
[11:32:20] <boru> Not that moonchild helped the situation.

[13:23:41] <boru> You've already gtfo, since it's a windows browser.
[13:25:52] <AndyTheAbsurd> boru: just got a notification of update to PM 28.0.1.
[13:26:18] <AndyTheAbsurd> don't worry about too much, though, it's a Windows-only update.

[13:28:06] <boru> I've just switched back to firefox in the meantime. CBA to go fecking around with configuring things to act the same way.
[13:28:47] <boru> Perhaps when I have more time, I'll try something else.
[13:31:56] <pinchy> links-g or gtfo
[13:33:42] <boru> Better than w3m, security-wise, that's for sure.
[14:22:03] <Bytram> AndyTheAbsurd: hey! thanks for that!
[14:22:47] <Bytram> When I saw all the changes they rolled out in 28.0.0, I downloaded it, but held off on installing it... and from what I've seen, there's been a number of problems, most notably some reports of performance issues.
