@Mirk0dexI don't like (much) having to say: “I fucking told you”.> hearing that about Signal really makes me sad. I've always enjoyed using and promoting it (by forcing my friends to install it), but now I have to move away from it.But this is exactly what I said would happen to all those lemmings who fell for another one of Mike Benham's cons.Just go for #XMPP. I've been on it for twenty-odd years. Applications have come and go, but I still have the same account and some of the same contacts since 2005 (I switched accounts once). Only #email has been more stable so far (same account since mid-90s).The only thing that XMPP might be missing is a standardised account migration mechanism (there's a draft in there somewhere).@koherecoWatchdog @rs1linuxtools

@Mirk0dex— …and anyway, here's my #Whatsapp.— I'm not on #Whatsapp. I use #Quicksy.— Oh…Five minutes later…— Hi! Here's my #Quicksy!🤷I do occasionally get people asking how come my ID doesn't have a phone number.— Never mind that.(There's probably a business opportunity by selling people “personalised” JIDs, to go with their vanity car plates 😁)@koherecoWatchdog @rs1linuxtools

@marcel_kolajaWell, you would have read this year's #RuleOfLaw so-called “report”, where states essentially pat each other on the back and, notably, no mention is made of the fierce political persecution against #Catalans and #Basques in #Spain, a state that is democratic only in name.

@SuiseisekiYeah I'm with you there, making copyright matters a criminal offence utterly corrupted the whole system and shattered any delusions of justice being, well, just, that we might have had.@iska

What gets in my tits are those worthless whinges about “nobody else uses #XMPP, so I'm going with solution X¹”Two to tango and all that. I do not use anything else, not even in my professional role.No WhatsApp, Facebook, tick tack, matrix, ICQ, …No Teams, WebEx, Zoom, NetMeeting, …No Office, slack, Skype, whatever else.Guess what? If the mountain won't come to Mohammed…¹ Value of X changes every three to five years.

@deepbluev7@meeee> In XMPP a multi user chat goes down, if the hosting server goes downAh yes! A most cogent argument. 😁People buy all kinds of cloud connected shit that is guaranteed to go brick when in two years time the manufacturer goes under or simply decides to stop supporting the product and shuts down the server. But a chat room, well *that* is extremely important that it has redundancy or I'm not joining! 🙄

@deepbluev7 @meeeeReally, I find it embarrassing when people try to rationalise their “well I just bought into the marketing” decisions via the sellers' own talking points. 🙄

@deepbluev7 @meeeeAnd btw, it's perfectly possible to provide redundancy in #XMPP not just to chatrooms, but also the accounts that participate in them via a multi-node installation, such as #ejabberd supports.That hardly anybody bothers is not a reflection of the relatively straightforward process to set that up, but of the lack of actual demand for that kind of thing.

@nuclear> How big of a red flag is a code of conductContributing to a project as opposed to merely using it?Usually a sign that the project either attracts or is run by immature people or people who'd rather push their own worldviews onto others than content themselves with writing good code.Originally, codes of conduct were called #nettiquete and served to guide newcomers to the online world and show them how to contribute constructively in a new and unfamiliar environment.Lately, “codes of conduct” appears to have come to refer to fashion statements thinly disguised as moralising / pseudopolitical messages and can be enough of an annoyance to become disruptive.

@Archivist> What you consider a red flag is the bare minimum required by law in my country in most cases.Which country would that be and which piece of legislation would require a document titled “code of conduct”, please?> What most countries out of the US can't tolerate is intolerance, and you are showing a clear sign that hate speech is OK with you. I will see myself out tooThat's a pretty, err, intolerant statement (with a #xenophobic tinge to boot). 🤡#irony, #coppery, etc. 😛@nuclear @jollyrogue

@tuxicoman> With this standard,Correct on the fact that this is, indeed, part of the specification.> large integer cannot be exactly represented and will be rounded.That's not quite right (though you might be aware of that). It's simply that you cannot represent *every* integer above Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER (or below its negative counterpart) as a Number primitive.The good news is that you can use #BigInt for that.As to why it's like that: #JavaScript was designed to very tight constraints. It did meet those constraints while still being a usable language, at least for the purpose it was originally designed (and IMO, well beyond).Provided that you're familiar with its (evolving) specification, JavaScript holds very few surprises, unlike other languages that suck simply because they weren't thought through properly.

@freemoThat's some serious handbagging you're engaging in. Honest question: don't you have a life, work, family, to busy yourself with? Looks to me like you really need to take a breather from this hobby of yours.Also, your reaction comes across as a bit over dramatic.For a start: there are no actual “nazis” left, for the simple reason that the #NSDAP no longer exists (and the world has moved on a bit). There is hate, intolerance, fascism and other condemnable attitudes and ideologies, but there are no “nazis”. That's just stupid American terminology meaning "someone I don't like".To continue with: I've no idea who that snow guy is out why do you care about him, but from what you've posted, seems like a run of the mill #troll. You've shown examples of classic shitposting. Offensive and inappropriate, yes. But he hasn't called for violence or actual discrimination, has he? Just block him and move on. If he continues to troll, lawyer up and send a cease and desist. If he persists, sue. Provided that you're based in a semi civilised place (or #France) these kinds of things do get looked into.But honestly, as a user I just liberally block trolls and troll instances and that's it. I really don't expect you as an admin to do it unless, e.g., they're causing a #DoS or some other technical reason.If other people want to block your instance… their loss. 🤷 That's how the system works.Now go and get some fresh air. 🙂🌻

@freemoHe's not a “nazi”, mate. From what you've posted he's probably a kid with no friends posting from his bedroom.Which, honestly, is the same way you're coming across.I get it that running a web forum is stressing, what with all the idiots (myself included) that get free access to it and cause headaches. But there are other priorities in life.

With so many clowns 🤡 doing the hate thing on #Musk, I would have hoped at least one of you fuckers could express a cogent reason why.Has he raped any children recently?Has he murdered anyone?Has he bribed any politicians? (Though who hasn't?)Has he shagged your significant other?I have no particular opinion on him. I have also *not* seen anything that I would disapprove of.On the other hand, what have *you* done today to make the world a better place?

@mathlover> the truth isThat's goes hand in hand with "you are, it's pretty simple". The truth is, I'd try to avoid using that expression. 🙂Yes, I've heard all the narratives about how he's actually a fake, an incompetent manager, an all around moron, etc, etc.So how does one explain the results: #Zip2 (for those who remember), #PayPal, #SpaceX, #Tesla (including power walls), … He must be incredibly lucky. 🙂But of course you'll tell me that those companies are not actually ground breaking or successful, that they're actually a force of evil, that they're run by the lizard people, etc, etc. I've heard that too, and I beg to differ.
