grtcdrIs this channel still alive?00:16
elacheche[m]Hello grtcdr: 00:17
grtcdrHoly moly!00:17
grtcdrHi :à00:17
grtcdr:)*00:17
elacheche[m]At past midnight GMT you won't find many folks x) 00:17
grtcdrI'm pretty stoked to see a tunisian community on IRC.00:18
grtcdrHow's your day?00:18
elacheche[m]You mean, night, right? x) it's niice :) 00:18
grtcdrYeah my bad!00:19
elacheche[m]There were many tn communities on irc 00:19
grtcdrWhere are they now? /list shows this channel, and this channel only.00:19
elacheche[m]I'm using the matrix irc bridge, that's why you can only see this channel.. 00:20
elacheche[m]Also, I said "were" not "are"00:21
grtcdrThat's very sad.00:21
elacheche[m]Today, I don't know if there are many TN irc channels on libera.chat00:22
grtcdrI was hesitant to join at first, seeing how the latest commit to your bazaar repository had been some 13 years ago.00:22
grtcdrelacheche[m]: Yeah, I should maybe check to see if any other channels are out there for us Tunisians on different servers.00:23
elacheche[m]Yeah, it's  been a while, but, we weren't big code contributors, we mainly did events, evengalism and other types of contribs.. 00:24
grtcdrI love me some linux evangelism...00:24
grtcdrAre the guys from 13 years ago still around?00:24
elacheche[m]At least one of them is..00:25
grtcdrWhich one are they?00:26
elacheche[m]You mentioned bazaar, that makes me think that you're not here because you were browsing libera.chat channels, but because you were checking our LP page, right? :)  00:26
elacheche[m]Who do you know from 13y ago ? :) 00:27
grtcdrI did /list, copy-pasted the website URL and browsed for a little bit. Then I decided to hop in ;) because the communal aspect to ubuntu-tn seemed really fun.00:27
elacheche[m]Nice :) 00:28
grtcdrI don't know anybody from here, I was surprised to see a single channel for tunisians.00:28
grtcdrDo you guys impose a particular language around here?00:28
elacheche[m]I am not from the 13y ago guys, just the 12y ago ones.. and saying this that way makes me feel old  :/ 00:29
grtcdrI get that, 13 years is a lot of time.00:29
grtcdrI'm pretty knew to IRC, I like the nostalgic feel. It reminds of much simpler times.00:30
elacheche[m]grtcdr: Just some comprehensive lang.. Ar, Fr, En.. But, you won't find many folks around any more.. I guess00:30
grtcdrWhere I'd hop on the family computer to play games like solitaire.00:30
grtcdrelacheche[m]: Why not revive it?00:30
grtcdrI suppose that's hard to do.00:30
elacheche[m]Let's say, it's like a part time job, and people do not have that much time anymore..00:32
elacheche[m]Anyway.. we're on matrix if you wanna join us there too, we're a little bit more active there.. 00:33
elacheche[m]I mean, as persons, not as communtiy.  00:33
grtcdrelacheche[m]: I really prefer IRC over matrix, haven't found any good terminal clients for it.00:33
elacheche[m]For what?00:34
grtcdrWell, I found something https://github.com/alphapapa/ement.el00:34
grtcdrFor matrix.00:34
elacheche[m]What do you use for irc?00:34
grtcdrEmacs00:35
grtcdrI used to use weechat, but my move to Emacs has forced me to like a centralized environment for all my computing needs.00:35
grtcdrForced is the wrong word, I like the new change :)00:35
elacheche[m]Take a look at weechat, it's nice, and supports irc and matrix and others.. 00:35
grtcdrelacheche[m]: I used the matrix plugin for weechat, it's... terrible.00:36
grtcdrSee https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix/issues/31400:36
elacheche[m]I don't like emacs, so I won't comment 00:36
elacheche[m]VIM <3 :p 00:36
elacheche[m]I didn't cross an Emacs user since 2013 or so x) 00:36
grtcdrI love vim, but it doesn't share emacs philosophy, so it's hard to compare them.00:37
grtcdremacs'*00:37
elacheche[m]yep00:37
grtcdrelacheche[m]: Guess we're pretty rare.00:37
elacheche[m]indeed x) 00:38
grtcdrI recently dropped neovim in favor of vim.00:38
grtcdrAs I don't open neovim much anymore, so it made sense to use the lighter and more stable tool for quick file editing.00:38
grtcdrI'll try and install that emacs plugin, and join the matrix room :)00:38
elacheche[m]cool :) 00:40
grtcdrI still don't get the matrix protocol, but then again, I've never attempted to read up on it.00:41
elacheche[m]You read about protocols! That's nice.. And sounds intelligent :) 00:42
grtcdrOnly on rare occasions.00:43
grtcdrI procrastinate as well :)00:44
elacheche[m]:)00:44
grtcdrI don't think the emacs plugin is ready for production, I'll have to find an alternative.00:44
grtcdrI'll just use gomuks, which I know gets the job done.00:45
elacheche[m]:)00:46
grtcdrI should really put this out there, I only use Ubuntu Server, and in a VM to keep my personal machine clean. I'm not an Ubuntu user per se.00:46
grtcdrDon't stab me.00:47
elacheche[m]^_^00:47
elacheche[m]It's ok..00:47
grtcdrAwesome :)00:48
grtcdrdang i don't remember the element domain00:51
grtcdrAre you guys on element?00:51
elacheche[m]matrix.org00:52
elacheche[m]element is the client00:52
grtcdrso my username should be @grtcdr:matrix.org right?00:52
elacheche[m]#ubuntu-tn:matrix.org00:52
grtcdrWhat should I set the homeserver? It's expecting an https URL.00:53
grtcdrIt filled it out for me :D00:53
grtcdrgomuks got some smarts00:53
elacheche[m]grtcdr: If you're on matrix.org, you can be on an other matrix domain and join a room in matrix.org00:53
grtcdrelacheche[m]: That's where it gets its decentralization from, right?00:54
elacheche[m]Yes00:55
grtcdrSo to join a server I have to enter "/join <room> [server]". I've tried "/join #ubuntu-tn" and "/join ubuntu-tn", but neither worked.00:58
grtcdrThe command is "/join <room>" *00:58
elacheche[m]try #ubuntu-tn:matrix.org 00:58
grtcdrI'm in, thank you!00:59
elacheche[m]It's getting late, I need a get some sleep, was nice talking to you.. 01:00
elacheche[m]See you around :) 01:00
grtcdrYou too :) Goodnight!01:01
elacheche[m]Thx, gn01:02
