Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:45:31
hey there
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:45:47
I got so bored with the internet I came back to IRC after a decade and a half
invisible 2017-01-28 01:45:48

Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:45:52

Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:45:54

swarfega 2017-01-28 01:47:08
irc is part of the internet too
invisible 2017-01-28 01:47:09
haha what are you doing in IRC?
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:47:20
true and good question
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:47:34
"I got bored with the rest of the internet that is not IRC"
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:47:39
"I have no idea"
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:47:41
:p
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:47:49
:)
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:48:02
bored with the vastness of the internet
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:48:25
all those games, all those videos, all those websites and hes bored :p
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:48:44
there was a commercial 10 yrs ago or so for an ISP that was really fast. the husband sat there dumbfounded when his screen (a CRT) said "you have reached the end of the internet"
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:48:50
thats me
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:49:02
lol
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:49:07
:)
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:49:10
the internet is like the universe
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:49:12
infinite
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:49:19
true but
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:49:22
outside a certain area
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:49:24
its empty
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:49:25
open space
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:49:40
like my brain in the morning
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:49:45
hha
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:50:47
I never got on freenode before though
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:50:56
Im surprised at the number of people
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:51:04
dalnet and efnet is dead
genec 2017-01-28 01:51:06
freenode is a bit of a different IRC network
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:51:07
not all of them are active
trayzer 2017-01-28 01:51:17
hi
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:51:20
yo
genec 2017-01-28 01:51:51
Angurvada: they're not dead. just fewer users compared to others. Eris, otoh...
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:51:59
:P
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:52:11
theyre idling on bncs
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:52:25
remember its night time for a lot of people
genec 2017-01-28 01:52:28
it's akin to calling a medically induced coma patient a corpse :p
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:53:02
8 pm here
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:53:07
LOL
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:53:10
lol genec
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:53:13
12:53 in the afternoon here
genec 2017-01-28 01:53:30
7:53 AM here. drinking the morning coffee
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:53:49
proof the earth is round
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:53:52
its dark here
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:53:54
is it light there
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:54:06
suns out here
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:54:10
yay we win
genec 2017-01-28 01:54:46
the sun should be out but the cloud is thick and vast. LOL
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:54:49
technically the suns out all the time, its just night is caused by the Earths' rotation
SkunkyFone 2017-01-28 01:55:24
and thus the earth is not flat.
SkunkyFone 2017-01-28 01:55:35
it might be a cube, but it's not flat.
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:55:41
LOL
genec 2017-01-28 01:55:54
it exists in no less than 3 spatial dimensions
swarfega 2017-01-28 01:56:22
i cant see how they insist its flat when people have orbitted a full rotation
theob 2017-01-28 01:56:34
just thought people might wanna know, i'm offering free znc accounts here: https://tbl.im
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:56:36
I dont believe in Einsteins 'fabric of space' crap. He made up half of everything he ever said.
SkunkyFone 2017-01-28 01:57:10
Angurvada: that's what theories are. people make stuff up, and then try to prove it.
trayzer 2017-01-28 01:57:10
Do you speak russia ?
Angurvada 2017-01-28 01:57:16
lol
trayzer 2017-01-28 01:57:26
)
trayzer 2017-01-28 01:57:46
what ? I just asked
genec 2017-01-28 01:58:48
theob: do you use that ZNC instance to connect?
theob 2017-01-28 01:59:01
I use my personal Quassel instance to connect
theob 2017-01-28 01:59:12
But, I've done extensive testing with it
theob 2017-01-28 01:59:39
and from my subpar connection on the East coast of the U.S(server is located in Ukraine), I only get around 20-30ms
genec 2017-01-28 01:59:50
theob: I was just going to suggest that if you did use that ZNC instance, you'll eventually find you're unable to connect one day
theob 2017-01-28 02:00:01
Why?
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:00:30
he's implying that you may get connection-throttled after a certain number of simultaneous connections
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:00:37
as there is a limit
genec 2017-01-28 02:00:50
theob: randomly opening up bouncers may result in the connection limit being hit, a throttle being hit or even a K-Line
theob 2017-01-28 02:01:11
I know, I have to approach a staff member for an I-Line soon
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:01:24
ilines@freenode.net
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:01:26
yeah
genec 2017-01-28 02:01:30
theob: iow, why run a bouncer when others already exist?
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:01:41
genec: ~the hobby~
theob 2017-01-28 02:01:45
^
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:02:06
I say this as I host a number of people myself
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:02:09
heh
genec 2017-01-28 02:02:11
theob: then the next requisite question: abuse-prevention-countermeasures?
theob 2017-01-28 02:02:12
+ most of the ones that exist sometimes require refferals, or the process for requesting is too complicated, or there are too many rules
theob 2017-01-28 02:02:14
things like that
mniip 2017-01-28 02:02:24
theob, where's your identd
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:02:42
theob: you'll want to reference http://wiki.znc.in/Identfile
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:02:49
to understand what mniip is talking about
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:02:57
(if you haven't set it up, you ought to, real soon)
theob 2017-01-28 02:03:15
Alright, I'll do that
theob 2017-01-28 02:03:28
mniip: does Freenode generally allow new providers to get I-lined?
mniip 2017-01-28 02:03:36
sure
mniip 2017-01-28 02:03:46
but you have to take the neccesary precautions to combat abuse
invisible 2017-01-28 02:03:50
hi guys
theob 2017-01-28 02:03:54
Alright, awesome
swarfega 2017-01-28 02:04:05
invisible: i cant talk to you, you're invisible :p
mniip 2017-01-28 02:04:06
(did you ever consider what will happen if your service is abused)
theob 2017-01-28 02:04:12
Yup, I did
theob 2017-01-28 02:04:30
I need to just add an abuse email to the site
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:04:40
'just'
genec 2017-01-28 02:04:44
theob: that's not everything....
theob 2017-01-28 02:04:44
yeah
theob 2017-01-28 02:05:07
I've never done this before, so if there's anything else I should do besides an ident file, and an abuse email, please share :p
invisible 2017-01-28 02:08:13
hi
trayzer 2017-01-28 02:09:56
invisible: hi
invisible 2017-01-28 02:10:56
trayzer:Friends?
trayzer 2017-01-28 02:11:23
I'm not here for a long time here I want to make friends)
Angurvada 2017-01-28 02:11:44
Im willing to be your enemy
grumble 2017-01-28 02:12:31
theob: you should make sure users cannot change their own ident
Angurvada 2017-01-28 02:12:37
I just realized how close enemy and enema is spelling wise. I crack me up
grumble 2017-01-28 02:12:49
if the ident is user-defined, identd is a bit useless
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:15:01
grumble: linking him to the identfile module is the perfect way to force ident responses to match znc usernames
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:15:06
so there will be no question
terwyuetrfg 2017-01-28 02:16:15
hello world
MetaNova 2017-01-28 02:16:41
theob: in step #4 you'll want to replace in the example '%ident%' with '%user%'
invisible 2017-01-28 02:18:13
Angurvada:What the fuck!!!
spareproject 2017-01-28 02:36:18
Lisbelk,
spareproject 2017-01-28 02:36:29
