    emerge gaim?

    "all my time" ...

    it takes 3 minutes to build at most [probably less]. How precious is your time that you can't background a build of gaim while doing work? ...newbs...

    Do you honestly want to see the fuckers on the other end of an IM? I've met quite a few IMers in meatspace and they're not lookers.

    Unless you got IM-hos on your list I can't see this being a deal breaker.

    That and it's a stupid use of bandwidth. Downloading porn is better. It promotes an economy and is better to jerk off to than a fellow male from scotland or something otherwise equally perverted.

    How typical of slashdot that you get modded as flamebait and troll. Ridiculous.
