Si quieren probar el tantas veces revivido servidor IRC de Undernet Uy, esta vez corriendo en un MIPS32 de 720MHz con 64MB de RAM, pueden instalar la app Revolution IRC, de la tienda de aplicaciones libres FDroid y ponerle estos datos para conectarse (captura). Si no tambien pueden ir al webchat en https://irc.undernet.uy#irc#mips32#openwrt#ngircd#internet#lowtech#uruguay
Dí nuevamente de alta el servidor IRC de Undernet, esta vez corriendo en un router TP-Link con OpenWRT, si alguien desea probarlo, puede conectarse en irc.undernet.uy con los puertos 6667 o 6697 con SSL. Estoy viendo la posibilidad de enmarcar esto en un pequeño proyecto satélite a Undernet, de servidor de bajo consumo/bajo costo/baja huella ecológica/permacomputación, quizá en un futuro, alimentado mediante una fuente directa renovable --> https://undernet.uy/irc/#irc#undernet#permacomputación#lowtech#bajocosto#internet
Por si usas #urxvt en su versión 9.3, actualización que llego a principios de este año, donde el prompt siempre aparece a la mitad de la terminal. 🙀 Un comportamiento que puede ser considerado como una característica o como un bug, dependiendo de la perspectiva. Y que se discute en los canales #IRC de la aplicación:
Question for chatroom folks out there: Are there any active arts communities out there in #irc, #xmpp, #matrix, or other federated chat platforms?
I did some looking but turned up almost nothing, all I can find are a handful of places full of AI and/or NFT bros, and places that are connected to art but not really *about* it (opengameart, communities around art production software, etc)
Discord's packed to the gills with art chats, I find it unlikely that there's not at least *one* elsewhere.
Ara he recordat quan a #IRC vaig dir que ja tenia el meu primer Linux instal·lat i que ja em sentia segur i invulnerable. Al minut un va respondre: "mira si tens un fitxer nou en el directori /root". Doncs sí, hi havia creat un fitxer de text que deia "hola, m'he fet root"
In no particular order, web sites like OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia, Archive.Org, Sci-Hub, tools like I2P, Tor, IRC, GPG, OMEMO, OTR, and open and federated protocols like Jabber, Email, Diaspora and ActivityPub are the most important projects on the internet and should be protected and exalted.
I just realized that on September 27 of this year (9 days away) my Freenode IRC username turns 15 years old. Pretty sure its the oldest username i own on the internet.
As per request from a community member, we've bridged our main chat room (`#feneas:feneas.org on #Matrix and `#feneas` on #Freenode) over to #Telegram. You'll find it at https://t.me/feneas
Before deciding to do this, we had a [vote](matrix.to/#/!XTcFGXYoSwwJPindt…) which passed 3 in favour, 1 against. There was enthusiastic discussion about this. Some people had concerns over promoting centralized services, however many people saw the benefits of enabling people on the centralized services to get involved on the #federated web via the tools they currently use.
We believe bridging is a good way to provide community tools like chat rooms, ensuring people can participate using the the tools they have at their disposal. For anyone looking for a chat tool, we do recommend using the #FOSS and #decentralized options out there, for example Matrix, #IRC or #XMPP - to name a few. We hope to convert some of the people on the Telegram side of the chat room to do so in the future :)
Our chat room currently has a few hundred people from all around the federated web. Looking forward to seeing you there too!
