23:02 🔗 Coderjoe speaking of firefox bugs, I wonder if they'll ever get around to fixing the redraw bugs on XP
23:03 🔗 DFJustin magic 8-ball says unlikely
23:04 🔗 Coderjoe i'm kinda sick of seeing menus and tooltips get "stuck"
23:09 🔗 dashcloud what bug do you mean? I spend most of my day in firefox on XP, and I don't seem to encounter that
23:11 🔗 Coderjoe for example, I go to xkcd and view the alt/title text tooltip. I then move the mouse elsewhere without scrolling the window, and the tooltip area isn't redrawn to remove the tooltip (which isn't actually displayed anymore)
23:11 🔗 Coderjoe same thing happens frequently with context menus
23:12 🔗 Coderjoe also, are you using a recent version? (like since they started the stupid version number race)
23:13 🔗 dashcloud I'm on version 14 (the latest released version)
23:16 🔗 Coderjoe I can't seem to reproduce it at the moment over VNC
23:18 🔗 dashcloud I think I've seen it a couple of times, but I don't remember it being a strictly firefox problem- I've had XP refuse to let go of tooltips or context menus before
23:23 🔗 Coderjoe i've had it before elsewhere as well, but it is a (near) constant problem in ff
23:43 🔗 * Coderjoe rolls his eyes
23:43 🔗 Coderjoe I finally got around to reading some blog items I had missed
23:44 🔗 Coderjoe this is how Raymond Chen is dealing with the stupid olypmic streisand effect rules: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2012/07/30/10334555.aspx
