Hrm.

I'm not having any luck finding the flat plugin with Google, or the search on Mirandas site.

The tweakUI plugin seems to be really shoddy.

Sadface.

Anyone have any ideas?

search harder... ;)

edit-, wait i just reread your post, were you asking for the tweakui plugin or what? if not there is not other way to make miranda im transparent without it, just do the background the same color as your wallpaper...

Well, most of my backgrounds involve pictures and such, so is there a way to get them to align right?

I really want this so I can switch over to inspirat.

Blah! So confusing, there is so much stuff in Miranda compared to Trillian.

For now, I just want to get rid of the scroll bar and all that ****. I can do that with flat plugin, can't I?

Doesn't seem to be working.

You can set the contact list window to auto-resize to the height of the list. Diable the status bar and the title bar, and you will only get the contact list space showing with no bars. You would have to disable showing the offline contacts and collapse a few segments if you have a lot of contacts, unless you have a gigantic resolution.

setting the list background the same as the wallpaper only displays the upper left corner, so unless you keep your list there, it won't align. If you have a very busy wallpaper, you are likely not going to able to match the background with the tweakui plugin running and not see a pixelated halo around the contacts. it is an imperfect solution, and you do have to choose your backgrounds to accomodate the limitations inherent in the tweakui plugin. all the flat list plug-in does is allow you to change the color of the borders to something other than theme color, not get a transparency affect.

well, my other setup didn't last long :blink:

I'm really liking this one :D

Can you at least list some info, such as VS, Icons and Firefox theme?

I'm guessing its 'Inspirat part2' with a matching Firefox theme? What about the icon on your desktop?

Thanks

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.
