• @ricmarques: They used to, I guess I’ll have to check what changed and fix reply context in !elmdentica #
• !fedora libcurl is borked. With #nss I can’t use !elmdentica with https. Recompiled with #openssl twitter works but #identi.ca doesn’t. sigh #
• And !elmdentica works well with ssl in !shr for !freerunner, so same app, but different libcurls == different bhaviours 🙁 !fedora #
• @elmdentica: yup, they [replies] sure do [work], again! 🙂 #
• @pietercolpaert the computer network diagram part sucks a bit, but it’s the best one, I guess. #
• @hugoaparedes hey guy, you got craX0red, sent me a DM with fucking IPAD SPAM 🙂 #
• @jacerdeira hey guy, you got craX0red, sent me a DM with fucking IPAD SPAM 🙂 #
• @jacerdeira @hugoaparedes And both of you sent the same fucking IPAD SPAM dm, forgot the condom, did you guys? 😉 #

• ♺ @glynmoody: Worlds frst 20 min voicecall from FreeSoftware GSM stack on phone http://bit.ly/cSUopl could be handy once Android’s withdrawn #
• Dear lazyweb, is dlink dap 1160 wireless router honestly !freesoftware friendly? They claim so on the box, even ‘create your own firmware’ #
• @reality: I have not heard of an acceptable such policy, which is why I’m not a fan of #fogcomputing in general… #
• Quem e’ o toto q ainda nao percebeu q o q os ISPs querem e’ poder vender o acesso `a net em ‘pacotes de canais’? #netneutrality #
• @twitterapi thanks to your misguided idiocy, I will be removing direct twitter support from my app starting tomorrow. Bye bye! #
• TO twitter followers: starting tomorrow I’ll be in *write* only mode, forwarded from the !FreeSoftware social network. Won’t see replies.sry #
• TO twitter followers: so if you want to interact with me, you either know other methods, or follow me at http://identi.ca/ruiseabra *bye* 🙂 #
• @support is there an api call (even if undocumented yet) to get a conversation (a la Pino) in timeline format? #
• @lamm well, #Twitter is imposing #oauth from Aug16th in client apps. #oauth is bullshit and only adds lots of hassle (both devs and users). #
• @lamm since I write a client app (more focused on identi.ca) I don’t want to give false sense of security with extra cost: stupid workflow. #
• @zach: thanks, I won’t implement a workaround in !elmdentica as my use case (in !freerunner) is too slow to make multiple requests ok. #
• @lamm #oauth is an acceptable alternative if you want to give access to your account to *others*. But for “my apps” it makes little sense. #
• !elmdentica trunk can now get direct messages, hopefully sending our own will come tomorrow. #

• I love the stink of #swpat law suits, smells like the upcoming holocaust we need to have before politicians finally endsoftwarepatents.org #

• @bkuhn: @carlopiana: did something happen WRT #swpat ? #
• @bkuhn: yes, sneaky is a common feature of lawyers (/me blinks an eye towards @carlopiana)! #
• Is there a way to present a host directory to #kvm guest as if it was an usb disk, or something similar? !fedora #

• @mvalente: get well soon! #

• RT @jwildeboer @schestowitz FTR I am not a friend of dogs, I prefer cats 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer: cats are more independent and with more character, so l agree. but dogs also have their good things for one to like. #

• @ddevine: If you used enligtenment you could use !elmdentica in there 🙂 #smartq7 #
• @ddevine: I also have a #smartq7 but I let it fall vertically and the touchscreen film got punctured, but without fall signs. 🙁 #
• @ddevine: only if usable with !freesoftware like the #smartq7. Even X acceleration had a free driver #
• @ddevine: I didn’t buy a new #smartq7 because it was already hard to find a new one and it’s s3c was already discontinued. #
• @fabsh: Impossible by definition as Fallout isn’t !FaiF software… #
• At THE spot… anxiously hoping we’ll get a private room. SO was brought inside but without any explanation about the next steps. #

• @fabsh: I don’t have much time for gaming but one thing I’m sure of is that most ‘gamers’ don’t care at all for their software rights. #
• @fabsh: They shouldn’t. It would be better if they where aware of their rights when they chose, but my point is that they do neither. #
• @fabsh: A conscient choice is one thing, but no choice done and then pretend they chose is BS. #
• @fabsh: You said ‘all’, I never did! I said most… #
• Well, not today! It turned to the right position so we better wait ! #
• @phantas: yup ! #
• Fsck! Thirty five C in the shadow at 11:15… glad to be back into the server room this afternoon… #
• RT @jwildeboer Rules? What rules? #TheLarry explains that CEOs can ignore rules the rest has to follow. Geez. http://is.gd/ebfYx #

• @rlafuente: moi… quando? #
• @rlafuente: nao me posso comprometer com deslocacoes nas proximas semanas! Spawning! #
• @jwildeboer: They ask consent in order to participate in software popularity analysis of installed packages. I suppose they will do the same #
• @jwildeboer: I mean… if they didn’t they’d probably get a lot of angry backlash (I’d reformat my media center immediately) #
• @fabsh: Come on, at least agree you’re dilluting the meaning of ‘important’! It’s so for game publisher employees or for professional gaming #
• @fabsh: what is important is that one has fun times but gaming is just an instance of that! For @bkuhn that translates into coding 🙂 #
• @joaop: e verdade, congrats and and good luck! #
• @jwildeboer: joining #smolt would be awesome, but I expect more the NIH syndrome than foul play. #
• @fabsh: Hey, no need to get angry at me! I understand it well, but you’re doing the same you accuse others of, only symmetrically. #
• @fabsh: it’s a bit unfair to wind down on me *sob* 😐 #

• @meilin: Well, to me your words can only mean endorsement of proprietary sw and how good !ubuntu is for that. I don’t subscribe to that. #
• RT @hound @rysiek: @ruiseabra: or want “freedom” with “clean” go !trisquel or !gnewsense #
• RT @lxoliva @ruiseabra what if we replaced copyright law with positive portability and right-to-fix-and-share laws? http://ur1.ca/11avb … #
• @rbanffy: Anyone knows their own limits, but that doesn’t mean one should endorse/support their usage of proprietary sw. Quite the opposite. #
• @bugabundo: Heal the wound with Vodka! #
• Dear @support, adding a parameter so I can specify retweet prefix would be a welcome extension to the api. RT looks ugly! #
• @bugabundo: Nevertheless, always a nice excuse for it.a I guess I can’t sleep with excitement! #

• @zach: oauth is bullshit, it would be smarter to use pgp signing. #
• @pietercolpaert: again, that is only true for webapps. native applications only get code hassle, user has more work, and no added security. #
• @pietercolpaert: more reasons against: wastes more battery with useless code cycles #
