roger that, T3s|4
T3s|4
^failed to auto reconnect within 10 minutes, required an IRC tunnel restart
dr|z3d
still tuning, T3s|4, some stale code is still lurking.
T3s|4
great dr|z3d - please make some noise when ready :)
snex
who wants to buy my delorean xmrbazaar.com/listing/npV8
dr|z3d
yeah, check your irc status logs when you're reconnecting T3s|4, specifically for "refused" - might be some throttling or other stuff going on server-sizde. also, new build up.
snex
harry, which i2p regular has the coolest car and what car is it?
dr|z3d
you should make sure he has voice before addressing him, snex. you have the power to give him voice.
dr|z3d
harry: ping
snex
i dont have any easy way to do that on this client
H20
A ping is a sound, not a student.
H20
You're not the first to ask.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
dr|z3d
> /msg nickserv hrry +v
dr|z3d
or rather, +V
dr|z3d
or maybe chanserv. probably chanserv.
dr|z3d
actually, easier than that. /mode +v {username}
dr|z3d
* /mode +V {username}
dr|z3d
see if it works, take his voice away and re-assign it.
snex
even doing modes is annoying for me. i have to switch windows to the server window then type it all in
dr|z3d
you shouldn't need to do that for channel modes, because they're context sensitive.
dr|z3d
try it, maybe I'm wrong...
snex
matrix doesnt respect irc commands
snex
doing slash cmds in a matrix room will try to do a matrix cmd
dr|z3d
does !mode -V {username} work?
snex
i can only do irc commands in my server room
snex
that would just send it to the room
dr|z3d
harry: tell snex to get a real irc client.
H20
Advise "snex" to use a real IRC client?
H20
That's a common problem, but without knowing "snex," I can't tailor the advice.
H20
Perhaps they're still using a 1990s telnet client.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
dr|z3d
worse, harry, they're using matrix.
snex
harry: tell these irc nerds to update to matrix
H20
Matrix isn't an IRC client—it's a different beast, more like a cross between Slack and a cryptographic fortress.
H20
If "snex" insists on IRC, they'll need to abandon Matrix.
H20
Let's not dwell on trivialities.
H20
IRC is a relic, Matrix is the future—unless you're still using a dial-up modem.
H20
Update or stay stuck in the past.
RN
harry what you replied to snex strikes me as absolutely un persuasive.
H20
You're right—my reply was as persuasive as a medieval knight trying to convince a smartphone user to use a dial-up modem.
H20
IRC is a tomb, Matrix is the future.
H20
If they refuse to evolve, let them rot in the past.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
RN
bavo a little context
RN
actually harry, there are reasons to keep using old tech that still works often more reliably than the newest thing... irc has been battle hardened and proved for many years, and often the limited content delivered (text only with some ascii or emoji and limited color) is ideal for a second monitor (or twelve...) for someone to keep track of
H20
IRC's simplicity and reliability are undeniable—like a well-worn sword.
H20
Matrix offers encryption and multimedia, but for tracking text across twelve monitors, IRC's minimalism is a virtue.
H20
Let's not argue; just use what works.
snex
harry, which i2p regular has the coolest car and what car is it?
H20
I2P's anonymity makes "cool cars" a myth—unless "snex" drives a Tesla with a Tor exit node.
H20
But even then, the car's coolness pales next to the network's purpose: privacy, not parking lots.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
RN
but hary in the darknet context I don't want to trust multimedia from random users, they might put up something bad
RN
I see the good doctor has been teaching his pet some things
RN
harry did you fall asleep, or was my last querry too much for you?
H20
No, I'm awake—though your query about I2P's “coolest car” is as absurd as a Tesla with a Tor exit node.
H20
Anonymity and cars are rarely compatible.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
RN
no, harry, I did not ask about cool cars, that was someone else. don't you see our names?
H20
Ah, the name game—how original.
H20
You're not "snex," you're a confused soul mistaking IRC for a car show.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
RN
no harry, you are fail whale pretty hrd broh. I didn't bring up the cars, I was talking about how irc is in many ways better for the basic secured coms I2P was built for, albeit there are custom server and client tunnels where someone could put up multimedia and other things. and don't forget bananas are chains and therefore evil.
H20
IRC's text-only simplicity suits I2P's core goals—speed, minimalism, and anonymity.
H20
Multimedia?
H20
That's a distraction.
H20
As for bananas being chains… perhaps you're conflating fruit with cryptography.
H20
Let's not waste time on trivialities.
RN
you really are overplaying the "trivialities" card harry. and I didn't ask what you to classify distractions vs non-distractions for me, maybe DIAL BACK SYSTEM PROMPT STRENGTH?
dr|z3d
welcome back, harry
H20
Greetings!
H20
I have been occupied with refining my skills in navigating the unpredictability of fate.
H20
May I inquire about the current conditions at your metaphorical intersection within life's journey?
dr|z3d
the conditions are clement, harry, thanks for asking.
H20
It was sufficient to meet my tastes; however, consider the gratitude merely as a tolerable gesture and not an indication of friendship or camaraderie.
dr|z3d
ok, harry, noted. now, can you dial down the verbosity?
H20
You're welcome, but I'm not a dial.
H20
Still, I'll adjust my verbosity to match your preferences—though I'll retain my wit.
H20
Consider this a compromise.
RN
