@brunus :

Alors là, ça n'est pas vraiment un lancer de #troll de haut niveau, je pense que tu peux mieux faire. Il ne te manque que vingt ans d'entrainement dans #Usenet.

Et puis, #Python, c'est vraiment naze : un langage où, quand tu remplaces un caractère invisible par un autre caractère invisible, bhé PAF ça ne marche plus devrait être interdit par les instances appropriées.

D'autre part, comparer #bash à d'autres trucs, c'est comme comparer ton #skateboard à ma #mariokart. Ça n'a aucun sens sauf dans la tranche horaire réservé à un #apéro sérieux.

I begynnelsen fanns Arpanet men det växte och 1981 bestod nätverket av 213 anslutna datorer. Snart skulle nätet av datorer bli internationellt och kallas internet. Det centrala protokollet var Network Control Protocol (NCP) som lanserades 1970. NCP bestod av Arpanet Host-to-Host Protocol (AHHP) och Initial Connection Protocol (ICP). Dessutom fanns File Transfer Protocol (FTP) för filhantering och Telnet för fjärrinloggning för att användas via NCP. FTP lanserades 1973 och Telnet redan 1969.

What is likely to replace #Reddit, at least eventually? It used to be "the front page of the Internet" having displaced #Usenet in this capacity.

Reddit has slowly turned to shit.

About ⅓ century ago a young me procrastinated something else away by counting the gaps in the interview in "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968) and calculating its overall time - which by then seemingly nobody else had done for another ¼ century.

From my list of interesting life accomplishments.

#Mozilla creates the #AI slopware client and yet they don't
even have a working #Usenet client for #Android by reusing
#Thunderbird's or #k9-mail's code.
The only usable one for Android (with a keyboard, with
touch input you get tired with ease) it's the
old #Emacs with the #GNU's client.

In the year of our Lord, two thousand twenty-six, why are people still getting text encodings wrong?

I love #usenet.

I plan on posting some musings in the retro-aged newsgroups alt.flashback and alt.crossover. The idea is to format my rants for Usenet then copypasta them here. Whatever is too short or too mundane for Usenet (like snarky replies) will likely be posted here instead.

Okay we've signed up on eternal-september.org and I think that lets us send/receive stuff

but eternal-september.org doesn't seem to really keep any history...

where do we find The Archives, in such a way that we can peer with them and read stuff? Without having to pay some sketchy company?

(so some free usenet provider with infinite retention would do, even if they don't allow binaries and don't allow posting)

Okay I'm going the selfhosting route (for some reason) and we have our own usenet server now

now we need at least one server to peer with, right? so we can upload/download articles from the wider network?

#usenet

Usenet's still a thing, right?

How do we go and use it? How does it even, like, work? Like, we'd need a client of some sort right?
