Der #ICE ist leer, wahrscheinlich haben viele Reisende den Hickhack in #Basel #SBB nicht verstanden. Die #Bahn App sagte der #Zug fahre auf Gleis 4, die Durchsagen und die #SBB App sagte Gleis 10 und er fuhr dann auch tatsächlich an Gleis 10, aber das Ziel am Zug stand kurzzeitig bei Einfahrt auch auch auf Brig und sprang erst nachher auf #Köln um.

Also ja, als Reisende mit der Bahn muss man schon Profi sein und mindestens erkennen welche Datenbasis eher stimmt.

Aber egal, ich habe 1. Klasse, #Eggdrop zum #essen und #5G. Die Welt kann mir herzlich egal sein und die Bahn sowieso.

So I did a thing...

Because #IRC is still one of the best chat systems around, despite - or maybe because of - its shortcomings, I am a firm believer of https://xkcd.com/1782/.

At @bawuenet we use a #nagios installation to monitor our systems for availability etc. and to alert if some service goes down. Notifications happen via email and mobile phone push notification via https://pushover.net (great service BTW).

But I wanted the alerts on IRC as well. Which is not difficult, there are multiple IRC Bots already that can send notifications to IRC.

Except I do not want to run another bot as we already have an #eggdrop bot running. For about 25 years now.

So I built an eggdrop script that supports a `.nagios` command to send colorized nagios notifications to a channel and an accompanying expect script that logs into the eggdrop partyline via telnet and triggers the `.nagios` command.

I could have done `.say #channel <msg>` but that get confused when one uses IRC colors. Bummer.

Maybe this can be useful for someone else as well... https://github.com/bawuenet/eggdrop_nagios/tree/master

This #eggdrop #bot powered by #bmotion is the funniest #Artificial #Stupidity, also called #AS, you'll ever meet!.

#IRC

It's meant for #English texts, but we're using it in Italian as well.. It does get weird too :) Development is halted though :(

#IRC #IM #Dalnet #Eggdrop #Bot

I've just made young friends of mine aware of Internet Relay Chat. They are so excited that we will be using IRC as a Communications protocol.

I have accounts on different server networks which are still thriving
I remember the wonderful Eggdrop bot running on the AmIRC channel on Dalnet
