I'm going to find everyone using iso-8859-15 for the euro symbol now I bet.

�

That's a Euro symbol for me./

you're not using iso-8859-15

I'm using mIRC, so it's something crap and not very extensive.

Accented chars only just work.

windows-1252

or cp1252, apparently.

still a ? for me

what're you using?

I'm converting from windows-1252 now

ie a question mark.

so I can see most people's stuff

I'm using chatzilla on WinXP. don't know what character set tho

а <- does that look like an a?

nope

yes :)

utf-8 :)

weirdo

:)

what?

utf-8 is awesome

I'm sure it is, I just don't use it very much myself.

I do!

Fortunately, my (work related) coding doesn't really involve *other people* :)

all I know about unicode is that it keeps breaking programs :P

breaking them how?

like, the past hour here... trying to find the right character

ah "..." not "…" :p (though I admit I did just copy and paste that)

inhouseuk_ is now known as inhouseuk

nighty night.

somniloquy is now known as somnolent

[Global Notice] The site should be working now. Apologies for the inconvenience. Again, please reload: http://freenode.net/news.shtml

wonder if it's not a hack + that google redirect exploit trying to get us infected

took me to slashdot

this time it took me to movies.yahoo.com

hmm, hacked maybe

interesting

directed me to sco.com. =)

and another global saying to try it...

new global..

I keep getting timeouts

it just says try the same site

highly suspect either way

yeah

it took me to a yahoo search for salt-water taffy

you also note it's been more than 5 minutes

yeah, I think it's been hacked

and someone also got global notice access

which isn't good -_-;

lol ue

i want to install the musicbrainz tables in a database already populated with other tables, procedures, etc. i'm fairly sure there are no naming conflicts. any other problems with doing this?

bmaury: its been done -- the audioscrobbler's have done it.

awesome, thank you. we have a similar data model, with reviews linked to the artist, album and (hopefully) track. i wish i had come across your data about 3 months ago...

I've heard that before. :-)

i bet...

ooh, life.

check it out if you'd like: http://orpheus.notlong.com. the demo shows what we are aiming for.

url doesn't work

hi

that should work...
