[05:25:40] <chromas> I hope it just goes around and lands in California

[18:30:24] <Web_weasel> Hello Soylent
[18:30:28] <Web_weasel> check out my new wheels
[18:30:29] <Web_weasel> https://i.imgur.com
[18:32:04] <janrinok> Nice - and UK plates too
[18:32:10] <Web_weasel> ^^
[18:32:18] <Web_weasel> Think I'm the first person in the UK to get theirs
[18:32:30] <Web_weasel> No one else on the forums has picked theirs up yet
[18:33:10] <janrinok> well they are not recent plates are they
[18:33:20] <Web_weasel> No, thats a custom plate
[18:33:45] <janrinok> so why is it dated 2007?
[18:33:49] <Web_weasel> Should have been a 69 for 2020, but I went for a custom
[18:33:55] <Web_weasel> could have had 03-18
[18:34:03] <Web_weasel> decided on 7 because, luck I guess?
[18:34:18] <janrinok> each to their own, I suppose
[18:34:28] <Web_weasel> UK law says you can make a car look older, but not younger
[18:34:49] <Web_weasel> so all the SUXXPRA plates are available, as no one can legally put them on the last model of the Supra
[18:35:00] <janrinok> I know - I'm British
[18:35:41] <Web_weasel> Heh, by default I assume most people on Soylent are NA
[18:35:58] <Web_weasel> Nice to know at least you, me and greatauntanathesia are brits though
[18:36:21] <janrinok> we cover the whole world although the majority are Usians and Canucks I suppose
[18:36:49] <Web_weasel> Well, english speaking internet tends to be NA dominated. It's only Niche local forums etc that don't get that
[18:39:03] <janrinok> I know that we have at least 2 Aussies, 1 NZ, plenty of Europeans and some South Americans. I'm sure that we have others too but I've just not seen them state exactly where they are.
[18:39:29] <janrinok> still, nice wheels. Hope you enjoy driving it.
[18:39:33] <Web_weasel> Tends to not matter unless we are discussing local stuff like brexit
[18:40:00] <Web_weasel> She's an utter beast of a car. Considering we pay VAT and Toyota only get 43k for it
[18:40:14] <Web_weasel> and most of that must go to BMW/Magner Styre

[18:40:21] <Web_weasel> I don't see how they are making a profit at all.
[18:40:47] <janrinok> I'm sure you don't care as long as you are happy with the deal that you have got
[18:41:07] <Web_weasel> Ofc, It just boggles me that they would put out a loss leader like that
[18:41:18] <Web_weasel> considering the background costs of research etc
[18:41:26] <Web_weasel> I'm glad I got such a bargain

[18:43:03] <janrinok> hi boru
[18:52:32] <janrinok> well, time for me to call it a day. See you guys later

[22:40:39] <AzumaHazuki> Xfce 4.14 is nice :) It once again is a better Gnome than Gnome 2.x (and by extension, Mate)
[22:41:00] <AzumaHazuki> they should offer a bunch of default layouts on first init, including an old gnome 2.x style one
[22:41:46] <chromas> To be fair, Gnome was already going downhill by 2
[22:42:27] * chromas hunts for changelogs
[22:42:51] <AzumaHazuki> GTK 3 still sucks and is still slow and ugly, but Xfce 4.14 is probably its best showing
[22:43:12] <chromas> They should switch to Qt5
[22:43:44] <AzumaHazuki> Agreed. LXQt is losing their way and a Qt5 version of Xfce would be awesome
[22:43:54] <AzumaHazuki> i am not sure i want to see what kind of clusterfuck GTK 4.x is
[22:44:24] <chromas> ah oh
[22:44:36] <chromas> Usually nobody agrees about the Qt thing
[22:45:11] <AzumaHazuki> i actually really like kde plasma and qt
[22:45:26] <chromas> I'm on KDE. Pretty suite
[22:45:26] <AzumaHazuki> which is a huge change from 10 years ago. i remember being solidly GTK2 then
[22:45:33] <chromas> But I have nvidia and it flickers a lot
[22:46:10] * chromas wonders if the open drive would fix it
[22:47:24] <AzumaHazuki> Nouveau?
[22:48:18] <chromas> Yeah. I dropped an R

[22:50:01] <AzumaHazuki> why is GTK3 so damn slow? it feels clunky and heavy in ways Qt doesn't
[22:50:18] <chromas> Would—would you say it's gimped?
[22:50:38] <AzumaHazuki> ...glimpsed, now, i suppose :V
[22:51:37] <chromas> Has anyone made a DE using Electron? :D
[22:52:03] * chromas sets mode +Evil
[22:52:39] * AzumaHazuki hisses
[22:55:04] <AzumaHazuki> but seriously this acceptance of web tech for rendering GUIs scares me. i am watching yaourt pull in the Mint themes, and it's writing freaking CSS files
[22:55:20] <chromas> wat
[22:55:32] <chromas> a command line program needs themes?
[22:55:41] <AzumaHazuki> it's installing the Mint GTK themes
[22:55:47] * chromas rubs his auracle
[22:56:58] <AzumaHazuki> apparently the GTK3 devs never even intended it to be themeable. that...kind of blows my mind. like what, they want EVERYTHING to be running Adwaita or Adwaita-Dark?
[22:57:32] <chromas> They're just copying Mozilla and Opera
[22:57:57] <AzumaHazuki> ten freaking years of people who think smartphones are the defining computing experience as UI/UX guys gets us this...
[23:15:45] <AzumaHazuki> ...aaaahahahaha. we've come full circle. "Redmond97" theme pack. GTK2 and 3 themes that match ALL the old 9x/2K themes, including the Plus pack. I feel nostalgic
[23:16:32] <chromas> Does it make the titlebar a gradient?
[23:16:51] <AzumaHazuki> appears not to
[23:25:39] <AzumaHazuki> ugh...crystal light seems to be bad for me. weird effect, causes panic attacks
[23:25:45] <AzumaHazuki> i'd love to know how THAT works
[23:26:18] <chromas> isn't it full of sucralose?
[23:26:31] <AzumaHazuki> i think so? that may be it. i mostly either use stevia or go without
