I didn't like the direction Wikileaks was going, so I stopped participating in it.

I don't like gandalf replacing dumbledore in HP movies when richard harries died.
badon
Oh no, that will be weird.
But I can't think of anyone better.
Bill Gates was on IRC.
Jeru_
I'm not
haha
badon
You're on IRC right now.
Jeru_
oh yeah. crap
badon
Steve Jobs was on IRC too.
Everyone important in internet and PC technology was probably on IRC.
Jeru_
uhm. ok :)
badon
Oh, I just looked at the time, I have a meeting I have to go to!
See you a bit later.
Get Hexchat or mIRC or something if you want to explore IRC some more. There's a lot here.
Actaully, you can do the exploring with the web chat. If you want to stay connected so you don't miss anything, get mIRC or Hexchat or something like that.
Looks like everyone is waking up. All the channels are getting active now.
They're lighting up in Hexchat :)
There are over 200'000 channels.
Jeru_
uhm k
badon
And that's just this one IRC network, Freenode.
Jeru_
k
badon
There's the Mozilla network for the Firefox people, OFTC for Tor and other related things, Quakenet for gamers, tfes for flat earthers, etc, etc.
Hexchat can do all of them simultaneously. Webchat can only do Freenode. Freenode is the best though.
Jeru_
do I need to write these all down?
badon
No
Jeru_
haha ok
badon
You can always check the logs if you want to see it again.
It's in the channel topic here.
It's publicly logged so anyone can catch up on what's been going on.
Jeru_
oh..
badon
Don't worry, there are probably exactly 0 people who ever bother to read them :)
But, if you become famous, people will check and see, and they will say "Hey, someone took Jeru's name!"
You can register your name. I'll check if it's already registered.
Jeru_
hahaha
geez... register in what?
I didn't know my name is famous
badon
permanently claim ownership of the nickname "Jeru" on Freenode.
Jeru_
I prolly should think of another name... (but I like my name so much!"
badon
It makes it so it's yours.
Jeru_
oh...
badon
It's not registered, but someone is using a bot or something named "jeru". When they disconnect, you can take it, and register it for yourself.
Jeru_
but I can still use other names?
badon
just type /query nickserv
then, type help for instructions
Yes, you can use whatever name you want.
Jeru_
to register?
badon
Yes, anything you want.
Jeru_
uhm... ok
badon
Urej has a nice ring to it.

It's cool, eh?
I actually spent valuable time coming up with that, haha.
For no reason.
It's like a mirror: badonuopeq
Like on the shore of a glassy lake.
woo, I should make it spin
Jeru_
maybe that's why you chose badon, huh?
badon
No, originally it was just a nonsense word that no one else was using.
Turns out there is a Mount Badon in the UK that is pretty famous.
