2024-09-29 22:14:49 +0200 <__monty__> Sure, but I'm on old hardware and in big rooms so I'm not likely to have the best of times.
2024-09-29 22:13:42 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> I would say don't believe all the matrix client bashing you hear. The experience probably depends on platform , memory, and rooms/activities

2024-09-29 22:11:43 +0200 <__monty__> Especially when Element does an Olm rugpull with a big ol' CVE.
2024-09-29 22:08:28 +0200 <Rembane> Speaking of chats... I must post this: https://xkcd.com/1782/
2024-09-29 22:08:10 +0200 <geekosaur> -fprint-explicit-foralls, unsurprisingly
2024-09-29 22:07:46 +0200 <pdxleif> What's the option to get GHCi to show the foralls in type signatures explicitly?

2024-09-29 22:05:43 +0200 <geekosaur> and the matrix spec is a moving target that I'm not sure client devs can keep up with
2024-09-29 22:05:22 +0200 <geekosaur> yeh, they all have big problems
2024-09-29 22:05:06 +0200 <__monty__> Yeah, it's pretty horrendous. But so are all the Matrix clients if I'm to believe the people I talk to.
2024-09-29 22:05:04 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> geekosaur: yeah :-/ uh.. a bot then ?
2024-09-29 22:05:02 +0200 <geekosaur> you mean weechat-matrix?
2024-09-29 22:04:42 +0200 <glguy> I guess. For me the only thing worse than using Matrix would be using Matrix via an IRC client
2024-09-29 22:04:20 +0200weary-traveler(~user@user/user363627) (Remote host closed the connection)
2024-09-29 22:04:02 +0200 <__monty__> glguy: Well, not with that attitude. But my cursed Bitlbee-libPurple-PurpleMatrix+<a sprinkling of Bash> makes *any* IRC client a Matrix client ; )
2024-09-29 22:03:42 +0200 <geekosaur> I'm not sure either one is easier. servers have to deal with e.g. the nightmare that is room sync between federated servers; clients have to do all the heavy lifting for pretty much every feature
2024-09-29 22:02:02 +0200 <glguy> __monty__: glirc isn't a matrix client
2024-09-29 22:01:54 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> geekosaur: yes!

2024-09-29 22:01:35 +0200 <__monty__> Not a fan of GlIRC?
2024-09-29 22:01:33 +0200 <geekosaur> hell, I keep thinking about writing a bridge in Haskell, especially after learning that the heisenbridge author/maintainer is apparently stepping back
2024-09-29 22:01:00 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> (which is easier ? I'm guessing client)
2024-09-29 22:00:43 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> or an actually good server for that matter
2024-09-29 22:00:23 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> so, who's going to build the actually good matrix client in haskell ?
2024-09-29 22:00:09 +0200 <TMA> more patience is needed for IRCv3 :)
2024-09-29 21:59:57 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> I don't think typing notifications come over the irc bridge, you're fine monochrom :)
2024-09-29 21:59:47 +0200 <TMA> hey IPv6 is around since 1995 and it is slowly gaining traction: 1998 IETF draft standard, 2017 internet standard, 2024 my internet provider offers IPv6 connectivity and assigns addresses upon request...
2024-09-29 21:59:31 +0200 <monochrom> OK OK I will write and proofread properly in emacs before pasting into matrix. :)
2024-09-29 21:58:49 +0200 <monochrom> Um you don't believe in taking time to write and proofread properly before pressing enter? :)
2024-09-29 21:58:26 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> lol yeah sometimes in a chat the typing indicator comes and goes.. for minutes.. yet you can't look away
2024-09-29 21:58:23 +0200 <yushyin> seems like weechat has +typing support since sept. 2021 o.O
2024-09-29 21:57:48 +0200 <geekosaur> (matrix has typing notifications. if someone takes more than about 30 seconds I'm always like "shit or get off the pot already")
2024-09-29 21:56:51 +0200merijn(~merijn@204-220-045-062.dynamic.caiway.nl) merijn
2024-09-29 21:56:43 +0200 <monochrom> Yeah that too. :)
2024-09-29 21:56:12 +0200 <geekosaur> neh, they'll start showing up after everyone has already abandoned IRC
2024-09-29 21:56:05 +0200haskellbridgesm doesn't send them but still receives them, when that's allowed... which is cheating
2024-09-29 21:55:45 +0200 <monochrom> In the case of IRCv3, the theory has been around for decades. You can bet it will stay as theory forever.
2024-09-29 21:55:37 +0200 <haskellbridge> <sm> agreed, turn them off
2024-09-29 21:55:02 +0200morb(~morb@pool-108-41-100-120.nycmny.fios.verizon.net)
2024-09-29 21:54:57 +0200 <Rembane> I don't want typing notifications, they stress me out.
2024-09-29 21:54:52 +0200 <monochrom> Also, "future version" is euphemism for vapourware. :)
2024-09-29 21:54:10 +0200dontdieych2(~a@user/dontdieych2) (Quit: WeeChat 4.4.2)
2024-09-29 21:53:37 +0200 <geekosaur> I mean, it already has a spec for typing notifications but good luck finding clients that use it
2024-09-29 21:53:28 +0200 <Rembane> I think Weechat supports some of them. I need to read up on this!
2024-09-29 21:51:54 +0200 <geekosaur> (the server we're on supports IRCv3)
2024-09-29 21:51:42 +0200 <TMA> yes, that might be the name.
2024-09-29 21:51:35 +0200 <geekosaur> in either server or clients
