| jrgifford | skellat: ok, lets try to run pump.io for $250. | 01:05 |
|---|---|---|
| skellat | Hunh? | 01:05 |
| skellat | Oh | 01:05 |
| skellat | Sorry | 01:05 |
| * paultag registered earlier today | 01:05 | |
| jrgifford | paultag: heh | 01:05 |
| skellat | I was in the middle of fussing over xubuntu-docs again to close out the last bug so as to then pester knome to upload a rebuilt package in time for beta freeze | 01:06 |
| jrgifford | cool! | 01:06 |
| skellat | paultag: You'll have a pump.io based account already once Identica transitions over since you've got an active account there | 01:06 |
| jrgifford | but if they think they can run pump.io for $500, then i think i can run it for $250. | 01:06 |
| paultag | neat :) | 01:06 |
| paultag | I wonder how it'll merge | 01:06 |
| paultag | since I have paultag on both | 01:06 |
| * paultag hopes he broke | 01:07 | |
| paultag | it | 01:07 |
| skellat | paultag: You might have | 01:07 |
| skellat | paultag: Oh, wait. The domain names matter. Do you have paultag on two separate domains now? | 01:07 |
| skellat | One other than Identica, that is | 01:07 |
| paultag | nack | 01:07 |
| paultag | I was thinking of setting up a status.net for debian | 01:07 |
| skellat | Go for it | 01:08 |
| skellat | FSF set up a StatusNet for themselves | 01:08 |
| skellat | Heck, there's even a JuJu charm for deploying such things | 01:08 |
| paultag | aye! | 01:08 |
| paultag | (I'm friends with the FSFpeople, I remember when they did it :) ) | 01:08 |
| skellat | Well, that could prove interesting | 01:10 |
| skellat | I'm still trying to wrap my head around the pump.io concept | 01:10 |
| jrgifford | https://github.com/hotsh/rstat.us/issues/755 | well, we'll see if the rstat.us peoples have anything to add. | 01:11 |
| Unit193 | Maybe I should look this thing up. :P | 01:11 |
| skellat | Essentially pump.io at the core is a transport layer to be built on top of | 01:12 |
| skellat | I think | 01:12 |
| skellat | Kinda like XMPP on steroids but more focused on social things instead of instant messaging | 01:13 |
| jrgifford | basically. | 01:13 |
| jrgifford | like tent.is | 01:13 |
| jrgifford | er, https://tent.io/ | 01:14 |
| jrgifford | just like we had the kentucky cave wars a long time ago, we now have the distributed social network and file sharing wars. | 01:14 |
| skellat | Competition can be good | 01:18 |
| skellat | Federation is even better | 01:19 |
| jrgifford | the competition is which protocol they'll find | 01:19 |
| jrgifford | which is the best? | 01:19 |
| skellat | Well, as a visit to a local library showed me once again today, I'm not exactly within the mainstream of opinion... | 01:21 |
| skellat | Besides, my client for Twitter and Identica is TTYtter... | 01:21 |
| jrgifford | what, lots of twitter + facebook + windows? | 01:22 |
| skellat | No Windows, no Facebook on my end | 01:25 |
| skellat | Plenty of Xfce, though | 01:25 |
| jrgifford | no, at the library? | 01:26 |
| skellat | Generally that's what you'd see at a library | 01:27 |
