*shoots BitchX and drags it's corpse out of his Zaurus*

OpenZaurus comes with BitchX and irssi...

irssi doesn't work very well, and was removed initially.  So I tried BitchX...

Nice client.  Can't configure the display worth a damn -- documentation is missing (or not written), FAQ's useless, Google turns up nothing and folks on the support channel say "debug a script".  Yeah, right, like I really want to waste five hours I don't have.  *BANG!*  dragdragdrag

In words spoken on #schlock_mercenary:  Schlock vaporizes it.

I go back to irssi's site... and find exactly the same problem.  No user manual, just HOWTO's and initial junk. 

I'm going to have to rewrite sirc.

Turning Canmephian... part 3.14159619

Slashdot posted a story about Matrix Semiconductor's 3D ROM technology.

It's about as small as your fingernail.... or the blue pill in the Matrix.  And it stores 1 GigaBIT of data PERAMENTLY, using a mixed-nanometer process.  Once moved to 90nm process, 8 GigaBIT in a reasonable size... almost like data crystals.

And that's in ROM.  Read Only Memory.  I can't wait until they get it as Flash/Rewritable or even volitile RAM.
