can I just rant about tech youtubers
<andlabs>
I don't know how but I'm now watching a bunch of michael mjd
<cr1901>
(whose gonna stop you? :P)
<andlabs>
JESUS CHRIST THIS IS FRUSTARATING
<sorear>
welcome break from everything else we've been ranting about
<cr1901>
true
<andlabs>
no prior knowledge or research, giving up on steps on the first sing of failure
<andlabs>
and now "I don't know how to shut down the XP mode" IT SAYS IT RIGHT THERE A LINK THAT TELLS YOU HOW TO SHUT DOWN YOU DIDN'T FUCKING READ IT
<andlabs>
how are you so popular
<andlabs>
" I am aware of the “How do I shutdown” link in the help documentation. I even went into it in the original cut of this video, but edited it out as I felt at the time this pertained to regular VMs and not XP mode. After going into it again it does tell you to press control alt delete and press the shut down button, which actually works in XP mode. So you are able to shut down XP Mode just like any other VM. "
<andlabs>
AAAAAAAAA.
<sorear>
if they could read and write, why would they be practicing an inferior form of communication such as making videos? *ducks and hides*
<andlabs>
lol
<andlabs>
anyway I just needed to get that out of my system
<cr1901>
sorear: Shots fired
<andlabs>
of course I'd find different content to watch.... if youtube even bothered to recommend anything new anymore
<andlabs>
no it's just the same five or six videos now
<cr1901>
This is why I keep the Watch Later playlist populated
<cr1901>
of course it never shrinks to 0, but that's okay
<andlabs>
heh
<Ultrasauce>
oh my god i never looked closely at the audacity project previously
<Ultrasauce>
they have vendored forks of every audio platform dependency and wx
<Ultrasauce>
and there are various extremely pleasant and productive discussions with distro packagers
<andlabs>
should I take that last bit as sarcasm
<cr1901>
it's so thick you could cut it w/ a knife
<andlabs>
ok
<andlabs>
also that audacity still uses wx is funny

ah cool looks like the owner of irssi just pulled an andrew lee
<andlabs>
<actual maintainer> lol no we're moving to libera
<andlabs>
<guy who owns the repo but hasn't even touched it in 5 years> WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING
<andlabs>
or at least I can only assume they own the repo if the have the power to revoke organizational access
<andlabs>
they aren't the person who is credited as creating irssi on wikipedia
<andlabs>
still waiting for marcan to acknowledge this bit but again it's 2AM in NYC so he's probably alseep now
<KitsuWhooa>
imagine wanting to be in a hostile network
<fseidel>
it feels like the freenode locomotive drags more cars into the trainwreck every day
<superctr>
i dont' really care what network they want their main support/dev channels to be in, but removing libera from the server list is just stupid

This week is the gift that keeps on giving... also I never had great experiences w/ irssi. It's fine as a CLI client, but it DC'ed too often for me
<KitsuWhooa>
hot take: I see no point in irssi when weechat exists
<KitsuWhooa>
other than "I was told to use irssi and now I'm too lazy to switch"

Lord_Nightmare: Also I'm gonna be honest. While this week SUCKED, it wasn't all bad for me. I'm kinda heartened that I've reconnected w/ ppl I haven't seen in months or years. As well as new ppl.
<cr1901>
They came out of the woodwork to unite in saying "no, this is unacceptable", and managed to save "Freenode the community", if not "Freenode the chat"

yes

It is a minor miracle the community survived too I think. We can of course talk about how the migration could've went better (4 years vs 1 week), but... communities don't usually survive something like this.
<emilazy>
re policy-feedback: uhm, rasengan, I'm afraid the policy is that on-topic channels must stay open
<emilazy>
please see ##freenode-policy-feedback, this topic violates the terms of service,
<cr1901>
I WISH that's what they did lmao
<cr1901>
but no, redirect to #freenode, which is +m still I think
<emilazy>
sounds like they're forcing their users to go to another network if they wish to discuss freenode
<emilazy>
k-line time
<cr1901>
Definitely a wise decision IMO
<cr1901>
I want to "k-line myself" (whatever deactivation is called), but can't just yet

also, hi q3k I see your comment :P
<q3k>
oh yeah, i also commented there because i saw ave's comment (who i know from elsechannel)
<cr1901>
Are they on Libera :P?
<q3k>
good question, no idea
<q3k>
haven't been in touch with them since the freenode kerfuffle
<cr1901>
I don't actually know them, just would be amused if they migrated and k-lined themselves

has been apologetically advertising the channel to ppl he knows and/or has met thanks to the Fleenode fallout. Advertising will cease soon, I promise.

Not _in_ channels, that would be rude. But one-on-one
