Patrick's new baby... TAL- J-8X

[e@rs]

Happy to read about the clarification of TAL's plugins activation (the machine verification part seems to work the same as with KV331); thank you all involved! I admit I was also pretty upset about the change to C/R and avoided to buy his plugins since. Not anymore...

Thanks for that self-portrait, sweetie It sums it up perfectly, really. That's exactly how I envision you, Anus Cleenus guru-following booger-eating peoples

I figured that was how you would envision us. It's unfortunate that you feel that way, but that's totally up to you and not something I want to control--you have to live with yourself. But like I said, you'll have to learn to live with us too, because (personally) I've been here 23 years and you've been here a month and I'm not going anywhere (although I suspect that this isn't your first KVR account).

I've written Patrick for more details. I'll let you guys know what he says.

How is KV331 doing things? I have his stuff too (though I wish it was Linux native).

Said this in the DS-2 thread:

I like this thing. Frankly I like just about anything coming out these days because IMHO there are worse ways to spend my money and there are some crazy-talented folks out there working on this stuff. Is this unique? Dunno but I'll buy it anyhow.

Patrick is a fantastic dev and I end up buying everything he releases. They all sound great and it's nice to support a dev doing consistently great work at affordable prices.

Don't we already have a half dozen of these? I honestly don't need another one.

No, we don’t. Move along, then.

Does TAL have a download manager yet for all the updates?
I like TAL, but hate having to constantly update my plugins.

[zvenx]

Sadly no.. I know what you mean.
Worse when you have to randomly check on his website and check each product you own license for, to see if they have an update for them.

Constantly?

Yeah, he’s always updating his plugins, and I want to be able to just write with a finished product, not have to update and lose inspiration… Just finish your work mate, then sell it to me, haha

Why would it NOT be true?

I think if you think of your own questions for a bit, you will figure out the answers yourself.

That's the thing that makes KVR much worse than it should be. All these tinfoil-hat scared little peoples, scared to breathe if there's no connection anymore, barely touching any grass once they don't get a reception. First there has to be an IP connection, somewhat of a life comes after. Like full-stop miserable and paltry.

And this Cleenex OS bunch are the worst offenders, truly. It's quite probably those kind of people who take shit in foil wrapping paper, fold it neatly, save it just in case they might need it in 10 years, who knows what's gonna happen. Or to A/B with the shit they took a year after, who knows. Just to be sure. Or for light corksniffing purposes between the two "specimens", what have you, I donno.. Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they did. Them are funky kind.

You typed a lot of words to ultimately say nothing. If anyone here comes across as a tinfoil hat wearing weirdo, it's probably you. I mean, just look at that nutty word salad.

In all seriousness: you feeling okay, SAGGy? Are you smelling burnt toast? Perhaps you need to have a lie down.

It isn't that he hasn't finished his work.. It is that people report bugs and feature requests.. and whilst most developers would take months to fix bugs and implement new features he does it almost instantaneously...
which may give that impression..but in reality he is the quickest developer I know. (which makes it bad for other developers I test for, when they say, oh that will take weeks to do, when I know patrick would do something similar within an hour)

Just this morning.. though the website says 1.00, if you downloaded after the first hour of me starting this thread, it is actually 1.01 that you will download.
Why? I found a new bug earlier this morning, sent it to him and within 25 minutes he fixed it and put up an update.

Yuck. Download managers suck. You don't have to constantly download. Just download when there is something in the new version that you really want/need. Otherwise, you don't have to worry about it.

There's no real reason to do this unless there is something you really want/need.

LOL, you don't HAVE to update. In fact, updates could cause problems if you are in the middle of a project. Just don't update all the time. Wait until you actually find a need to update.
