is this (still) an art major betx? with all these rivers of data these days it looks like its all statistics (for the shake of statistics)

Hakimoto wrote: But "free" email? Please...

so true,

thanks to friends/colleagues in academic circles i owned an email account when all of my e-contacts comprised of people i could call on, on a cool sunday. then i registered with a few webmail providers left and right to help my wild location swings. most of them were shutdown/acquired by yoohoo/googoo

can't even remember when or where i was at the time that made me register w/ lavabit , but i just found out that they violently pulled the plug:

Lavabit founder: 'My own tax dollars are being used to spy on me' , Lavabit Encrypted Email Service Shuts Down, Can’t Say Why .

weekeee - wiki it!

this would have saved us a lot of headaches few years ago, thanks lou

now that you mention it mark, i never had major headaches with it. been using it since its infancy (iTools, part of MacOS 9)

you could give us your favourite song :)

iirc it was a username+password thing. neko might had issues with kids spamming around hence the word limit.

never mind, i'm bookmarking this thread and i'll wikify it

update: done

chc, would SimplyBurns work for the whole process or just for the burning of the images?

it's been ages since i tried this but iirc any disc-burning software able to produce a 1:1 copy would work for duplicating irix CDs (under any other OS)

roger, will update

if there's anything peculiar/app-specific about it, please follow up either here or over @the wiki

@trippy: is that a 7inch vinyl and a turntable young man?

welcome aboard trippy

quite a taste for a youngin', give us a groove sometime :)

Trippynet wrote: The supposed 7" vinyl you see is actually from a set of about 4" coffee coasters designed to look like vinyls (not playable unfortunately).

on second look it passed for one of those "skinned" cd blanks with an identity crisis

(btw speaking of photos, there's a nice set of BBcode dressed as the "Img" button (in the toolbar above the message body, every time you post here) that turns your posted images into a fixed-size thumbnail so that members with all kinds of displays can read the thread without scrolling left and right forever. the board's attachment feature does the same)

Trippynet wrote: O2 wise, I've been having a few problems getting Sharity 3 to work (might have to discuss it on their forums) before it can become a proper music/web/play machine.

worry not, this is the place. i must be the only person here who experienced all aspects of an o2's caprice and at the same time had no clue what it takes to manage/keep an sgi running (i used to work on them since their heyday but an army of others was responsible for keeping 'em in top shape)

@neko/smj/regan and the rest of the wiki veterans:

- is there a way to have a "hidden/test" page, say like the Layout Test to avoid concurrent editing? not exactly hidden but the {{inuse}} tag brings out an alert

-do the "stubs", "wanted", "lonely" & "dead end" lists get updated automatically? funny, when i click on stubs today i get nothing (it was full of red links yesterday)


@all the young dudes, carrying the news:

-no excuses kids, here's the basics: Editing the Nekochan Wiki , please come help us

-we now have a very sleek and tidy "To Do" list, dressed as the middle grayish box on the left side of the front page:


-you can always start an article with just a pretty basic format/layout, give us a shout here and one of us wikifiers will jump in to help, but remember to categorize everything.

thanks smj,

thought it was part of the standard wiki code setup, need to do some more reading about wiki templates

mea culpa, thought it was part of your degree/major

and that's mint indigo, i guess it's ready for the museum after its last bath :)

waiting for that single someone to just appear with a theme ready is like waiting for hades to buy you a cold one. how about a kickstart?

willing to help, no clue about phpBB code, no sgi/wacom around me here but we'll manage somehow.

start serving proposed images until we reach a nice set to make up a theme. there are many wacomistas here, fellow duckling from scandinavia could start with a panorama of his collection or whatever got him into the sgi:land.

change is good most of the times, keeps yo fresh. you can stick to the "old" theme but what happened to this place?

when i hoped on board, an acquisition of an indy/o2 by any member would bring smiles, a hinv thread and congratulations. re-installing irix was conceived as scary voodoo but we tackled that as time went by. heartbrakes and wars with loony rezellerz.

all/most sgi stuff ended to you as collectors/members of this board and all we get lately is pretentious busyness and some pathetic cameos by zero-lifers with a font-formatting addiction. hurrah! so you got a bunch of usernames and have a whole thread discussing with yourselves! cookies are in the green jar.

on second thought, here's a nifty suggestion number 2: pete pulls the plug for a week and gives everyone a weekly diet.

rockers, start your engines!

we've got the disco devil dressed as the disco rebel :)

go on, work that wood and give us some drumming. do create some drum loops to go with it, sample the wife for bonus points or for losing the ball

chc, you need a third one man, one with a dolly parton kind of thing maybe?

rockers,

a very good friend is having an exhibition soon, part of the gig is a bonus track. she wants to distribute it via a (somehow unique) password that will be printed on the invitation (paper).

the password+link should expire after the download link is provided or after the download is complete (one off). think of it as a special treat for attendees only.

googling around i see hosts like mediafire/megaupload etc but no way to issue say 1k of passwords (to be printed on the invitation) beforehand in order to control the downloads.

who should i talk to? does this come with its own jargon term? how should i ask/search for it?

you're the man now robespierre

looking around some more i’ve found cardincluded . she doesn’t want a separate card/sticker/piece of paper and they’re the only ones that host and provide the codes on a .csv file (she can have the whole sea of codes printed on the invitation). we’re a wild bunch and want to design, cut & sew everything on our own. after a couple of emails back+forth, they sound like nice guys and this is what i’ll suggest to her.

thank you :)

just when i was thinking of asking the ‘channers about those embedded, mini-whatever you call them kits (like the raspberry pi, bandana-split or doo-wap-de-l’arte). not sure if they count as post pc though.

moi? i'm probably the one to blame for starting such discussions here. they all suck, they all steal your time, fifty trillion gigaflops on your smartphone and they still fuck up when you need them. fucking pop-sci-fi of the 80s

we’ve had a similar discussion back when i was testing hallucinating on carrying an iPad only, iirc sky was testing them too and kept them as synths in his studio. i ended up ditching them as a sole daily thing to carry around. they’re ok for doing the couch potato but typing a lot on these things makes you look like volunteering for a handicap you’ve never had.

the air was great for me (gotta love its weight) but its fixed ram made me sell it (couldn’t run aperture/fcp/something else properly) and for the last 3 years this old macbook cuts everything i do. i maxed-out the ram to 16gigs, replaced the stock hd w/ an ssd and that was it.

yup, nothing like a walk around town, hunting second-hand bookstores on a cool sunday



oh and kinda delayed but, happy new year guys!
