Speiros 2017-02-25 00:46:57
"according to their kind" maybe?
entuland 2017-02-25 00:46:57
one of a kind
Speiros 2017-02-25 00:47:00
Ah
Speiros 2017-02-25 00:47:07
lol
laowai 2017-02-25 00:47:32
KindOne has many accounts
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:04:06
nullr0uter: hi, you probably wanted to /join #freenas and ask there (you are currently in #freenode)
nullr0uter 2017-02-25 01:04:22
oh lol, i'm an idiot. thanks
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:04:35
no worries, you're welcome
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:04:49
cyPher11: ah, right. What kind of channel are you looking for? Social chatter?
Speiros 2017-02-25 01:05:18
Interesting. What country is the depression channel associated with?
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:05:25
cyPher11: if yes, we do have some of these, see /msg alis help list (e.g. /msg alis list * -topic *social*) or check www.netsplit.de for other networks that are a bit more targeted towards casual chatting (we are a network mostly for free / open source software)
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:12:33
cyPher11: because it works very well for our purposes (not perfectly well, but the alternatives are even worse)
A124 2017-02-25 01:12:38
Speiros That's a good news.
gry 2017-02-25 01:12:42
cyPher11: because these other tools still do not provide the functionality of group chat outside of a web page
Speiros 2017-02-25 01:12:57
A124 Ok. I've no idea.
gry 2017-02-25 01:13:04
cyPher11: and group chat in a web page is awfully bad to keep track of, at least for me personally
gry 2017-02-25 01:13:32
cyPher11: (these groups are usually poorly connected to eachother, and in some cases not enough focus is on the contents of the messages)
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:13:38
well, technically there is stuff like Matrix, Rocket and Mattermost/Slack that does have channels, but already the ressource usage of it is terrible compared to IRC, so ....
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:13:47
s/channels/rich clients/
cyPher11 2017-02-25 01:13:49
Oh i de
cyPher11 2017-02-25 01:14:20
Oh i see, tnx
gry 2017-02-25 01:14:26
Fuchs: their 'channels' people have hard times finding other 'channels' around them, i believe; they all sit in a webpage, and lots of them make non-foss things
gry 2017-02-25 01:14:50
that makes for a non-foss-centric group of people hanging around. unlike freenode
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:14:53
well, some projects I am in tried to use alterantives, including even Telegram,
laowai 2017-02-25 01:14:55
which channel? #depression?
gry 2017-02-25 01:15:02
no
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:15:03
and in the end it was always IRC that worked out best, so ...
laowai 2017-02-25 01:18:50
Speiros: what channel are they talking
laowai 2017-02-25 01:19:28
well staffs can close any channels
eiro 2017-02-25 01:19:30
Fuchs, is there a doc to explain how to help freenode ? maybe i can recruit volonteers ?
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:19:30
eiro: yus, I poked them and asked, we'll get back to you in case of it being there or not being there (it's Saturday, so I expect a bit of a wait until I can reach the right person)
Speiros 2017-02-25 01:19:33
laowai I believe gry is speaking generally about chat being on IRC client, and not a specific channel.
laowai 2017-02-25 01:19:43

Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:20:13
eiro: volunteers for us is a bit tricky, we tend to not take in applications for that and choose people on our own, based on how well we think they'll fit. We tend to tell people to support projects using freenode instead
laowai 2017-02-25 01:20:15
Speiros: oh she was saying social chat are just off topic on freenode
Fuchs 2017-02-25 01:20:24
eiro: anway, people got poked, we'll get back to you. Thanks :)
Speiros 2017-02-25 01:20:39
laowai Yes, generally speaking, at least. There are exceptions to the rule though.
pavuk 2017-02-25 01:30:48
Is there a sneaky way to trigger a staffer or is it all down to patience :)
Speiros 2017-02-25 01:32:08
pavuk There is a staffer here (Fuchs), and I don't know of any sneaky...at least beneficial...ways:D
pavuk 2017-02-25 01:32:57
Speiros: Thanks - I'll disturb Fuchs then :)
eiro 2017-02-25 01:43:06
Fuchs, going where ?
laowai 2017-02-25 01:46:59
nope
