I haven't been able to log onto AIM, YIM or MSN for the past couple of nights. Pidgin keeps crashing on me. I guess I could try Meebo or something, but not being online has given me a great excuse to play TF2 at nights. =| Yeah, I'm not good at multitasking. Finally got the backburner last night. It was great. All dropping down from above and going CRI-CR-CRI-CRI-CRIT-CRITICAL HIT on some poor heavy. (And if that poor heavy was YOU, I apologize.)
Ha. I remember when I was disdaining The Orange Box because it came with TF2. I didn't want to buy TF2! I was going to just buy Portal, but
ailure talked me out of it. Now over a year later I'm playing TF2 almost every night, while Portal is all but forgotten. How about that.
Yeah, I dunno. I felt like I had to make a journal. I'm sorry!
EDIT: OH YEAH! I remember what I was gonna talk about! Tool-assisted speedruns! I watch them all the time on http://tasvideos.org/ , and it's like ... the effort that goes into these things is incredible. I'll often see videos that take the author YEARS to make, constantly optimizing, pushing the game to its limits, finding a new route that saves just a FEW FRAMES ... and then someone else comes by a few months later with a video that's three seconds faster, supplanting it. THE AGONY!
Not that I'd know. I've never made one. But it sounds like a thankless task!
Yeah, that's all.

HEY YOU'RE A BUNNY! =D
And just get Trillian. >:U
if this were true wouldn't trillian be violating the GPL for not putting out their source code
And....
Fully Charged! *ubers the Heavy and laughs at you*
Seriously, that shit works.
other than that
OMG SOMEONE ELSE KNOWS ABOUT TASVIDEOS HOOOOOOOMG hit me up on msn when you get it working again, we should talk about random shit and shit. ggfreeky[at]aol.com
Re-reads his comment: Thank you, Captain Obvious! :}===<
Try uninstalling Pidgin and GTK from Windows, then install the latest version of Pidgin.
in /.purple/ there is a config file with custom overrides for multi-protocol grouping which I'm almost certain would get deleted or something should I uninstall, and I'm concerned with what else I'd miss :t
You can always backup said file if you're paranoid that anything would get screwed up.
I'm starting to wonder if it has to do with my dual monitor setup....
I had some odd crash bugs with Pidgin before, but it get's more stable with each release and some UI related problem I had disappeared with an update.
That makes sense for new features... but not bugfixes. :/
good call
