well, given that each different website api will require custom code for accessing it, requiring a particular auth method based on oauth2 doesn't really increase the complexity much :/

yep

i mean, it would be nice to have a standard way of handling this so that you don't have to implement separate different auth libraries per api, buut yeah :/

I think it's not that bad actually, because it enabled providers to integrate it better with their service

when seeing the blog about github introducing oauth, I was surprised that they still call *that* oauth :)

they have some weird ways to use the auth tokens

but git with oauth would not be possible if it required some standard auth method

gmail lets you use their oauth tokens in the IMAP email protocol for authentication.

which is just crazy

but actually works, and is now integrated with gnome 3.

you can login once to google using oauth2 from a control panel in gnome3, and it'll setup and authenticate instant messenger, documents, calendar, email, and contacts all at once.

except it doesn't work without evolution, which I'm definitely not going to use :/

what do you have against evolution?

I have no use for it

heh, that was a funny thing to read pop up in the corner of my screen

but I'd still like to see my google calendar in gnome

(completely out of context)

luks: they are actually working on splitting out the calendar into a separate app right now.

I'd really like if gnome was a framework and not insist on particular technologies

but all of the calendar and contacts stuff is still handled in the backend by evolution-data-server

I have the same problem with telepathy, which has various bugs where pidgin just works, but gnome is so tighthly integrated with it that it doesn't make sense to switch it

(I tried to change the availability icon in the status menu with pidgin but gave up)

er, +to work

That's good stuff, warp.

Back when I was drinking alcohol, I'd drink such stuff.

I generally don't drink alcohol. that's the only thing which has ever got me somewhat close to being drunk.

you don't drink alcohol either?

I'm guessing ocharles and I will be the only drinkers with dave not attending.

and ocharles only counts 1/4 of a normal drinker at that.

:P

it's alright, we have someone who couts as 7/4 so it all rounds out

ocharles: DID YOU JUST CALL ME FAT???

I could just go over there and sit on you.

wait.

I just called myself fat.

nah

I've seen ollie, you don't need to be fat to squish him :P

true dat

ruaok: What's with you and being called fat lately?

its a long running joke.

if anyone makes any kind of reference to my statue, I accuse them of calling me fat.

it gets funnier as I get skinnier. :)

You didn't make such a remark when nikki noted you stood out in crowds the other day... >_>

he stands out because he's tall, colourful and has unique hair

she was referring more to my color and my hair

I know that. Still. It'd've been perfect. :)

It'd've?

nice.

dont let nikki catch you saying shit like that.

:)

Haha.

huh? why?

it'd've? not quite legal is it?

It's a Danish-Copenhagen thing. We concatenate a lot... which I've transferred to my English.

if so, I'll use it in a blog post in the future. :)

It is.

It's a double contraction.

I don't see why not

nice try.

ok, next blog post.

it's not exactly "standard", but I don't object :P

nikki's not much for prescriptivist crap like forbidding things, last I knew :P

yeah, what ianmcorvidae said

"my grammar nazi" said it was ok!

It'd => it would; would've would have; It'd've => it would have

now, if you'd said "could of", I would be cringing horribly :P

Freso: I get it. and I like it.

ruaok: :)

It's something like https://dev.twitter.com/docs/rate-limiting/1.1 that's suggested for ws/3 right?

might be something in the ws/3 spec page

shouldn't'e?

What does "shouldn't'e" map to? "should not ???"?

Should I bring up my "languages for URLs" ticket on -users or -devel?

nikki: ^

Now that I've succumbed and has subscribed to them with my non-mail list mail anyway...

Freso: i'd say -style, myself ;)

depends whether you want discussion on whether it's a good idea (style) or how to implement it (devel)

Ugh.

Doesn't want to make style proposals. D:

hmm. I should put these rubber o-rings on my keyboard.

but you can discuss things on the style list without making formal proposals for everything :P
