[2023-01-26T05:10:29Z] <sewn> Ellowee:  just discovered it?
[2023-01-26T05:22:22Z] <Ellowee[m]> <sewn> "Ellowee:  just discovered it?" <- nah, been using for a while

[2023-01-26T17:47:12Z] <midfavila> interesting video if any of you are viewers of kurzgesagt
[2023-01-26T19:37:29Z] <niceguy5000[m]> We can't trust science!!!! Every science research project is funded by corporation. FAKE NEWS!!
[2023-01-26T19:45:40Z] <Ellowee[m]> <niceguy5000[m]> "We can't trust science!!!! Every..." <- soyence
[2023-01-26T19:46:04Z] <Ellowee[m]> eat the bugs
[2023-01-26T19:46:12Z] <Ellowee[m]> own nothing
[2023-01-26T19:46:24Z] <Ellowee[m]> be happy
[2023-01-26T19:51:10Z] <niceguy5000[m]> That's right!!
[2023-01-26T20:05:35Z] <midfavila> less that and more "hey isn't it weird that this company claiming that they're unbiased is doing all this shady stuff?" but sure
[2023-01-26T20:51:49Z] <midfavila> phoebos, dunno how into Xaw you still are, but I found a repo that contains aewm's old Xaw code 
[2023-01-26T20:51:50Z] <midfavila> https://github.com/Arquivotheca/aewm
[2023-01-26T20:51:52Z] <midfavila> branch 1.2.7
[2023-01-26T20:59:40Z] <midfavila> thinking about looking at the code for aepanel-xaw and modifying it or ripping it off to make my own panel, ideally with support for the swallow protocol
[2023-01-26T20:59:59Z] <midfavila> store things like a pager, a clock, load monitor, whatever inside it
[2023-01-26T21:00:24Z] <midfavila> actually at that point you could just make the window list program a specific instance of a more general menuing program and then swallow that inside of the panel
[2023-01-26T21:00:28Z] <midfavila> h m m m m m m m m m 
[2023-01-26T23:20:10Z] <tprepper> I used to watch them. they make interesting videos but conveniently ignore very big problems like corporations being evil and portray their actions in this very fairy tale vision
[2023-01-26T23:20:39Z] <midfavila> i've only really ever watched them and similar channels as entertainment
[2023-01-26T23:20:57Z] <midfavila> i've run into too many people who get their scientific knowledge from pop culture
[2023-01-26T23:22:23Z] <tprepper> After changing my politics I really didn't like how they portrayed space colonization in its current state, it's pretty evil in practice but they portray it as utopian :/ "corporations owning outer space is good"
[2023-01-26T23:22:47Z] <tprepper> I guess they're too blinded by idealism + they get the big bucks from billionaires
[2023-01-26T23:23:27Z] <midfavila> corps owning outer space is shit, space colonization is fine if the planets don't have sapient life on them already
[2023-01-26T23:23:40Z] <tprepper> I agree
