What was Plancast?

It looks like we don't have a page for "Plancast" yet. Would you like to create it?

Hey kevinmarks been a while. You going to indieweb summit?
#
[kevinmarks]
No, but I'll try to remote attend for some of it
benwerd, j12t_ and fzylogic_ joined the channel
#
tantek
we're talking h-event maturing to spec
#
tantek
and net neutrality protests coming up
#
tantek
biggest thing is that IndieWebSummit is coming up
snarfed joined the channel
#
tantek
less that 10 tickets left for IWS per the website!
#
aaronpk
i reconciled the indie RSVPs with tito registrations and added anyone to tito who hadn't registered themselves!
#
tantek
lol I'm still duped on the RSVPs :)
#
aaronpk
you sent two RSVPs is why
#
Loqi
[Tantek Çelik] co-organizing IndieWeb Summit 2017-06-24…25 @MozPDX! Welcome @benwerd; <25 spots left! RSVP: https://2017.indieweb.org/
#
tantek
right! I wanted to test that!
#
tantek
but I am just one person
#
aaronpk
i can dedupe on author URL
#
tantek
I mean, de-duping RSVPs is an interesting use-case
#
aaronpk
but we're gonna have to define the security requirements of this kind of stuff asap
#
tantek
different from comments
#
tantek
though perhaps similar to likes?
#
tantek
if I post two like posts of the same thing, does it get counted as two likes?
#
aaronpk
i'd say it depends on whether the timestamp of the likes are displayed
#
aaronpk
it's potentially interesting if someone liked a post a year later
#
tantek
liked it again?
#
tantek
reposted sure
#
aaronpk
reposted definitely
#
tantek
maybe depends on the presentation of the /likes ?
#
gRegorLove
Hey, I've seen people comment that they love something so much they wish they could like it again.
#
aaronpk
on the indieweb, you can like posts as much as you want
#
gRegorLove
Or "I regret that I have but one upvote to give" on reddit
#
tantek
lololol
#
tantek
now we're discussing Nest vs Raspberry pi

tantek
as a metaphor for many things

indieweb related and such

"out of the box" experience vs. privacy, liberty, etc.

#
tantek
talking about cloud models being fundamentally flawed (not in the user's interest) due to their bias towards centralization, e.g. company consolidation
#
tantek
j12t is floating interesting open source licensing variants like "GPL for individuals"
#
tantek
and I just said: "architecture is politics"
#
tantek
regarding cloud etc.
#
tantek
and sdepolo just successfully RSVP after the fact to the wiki https://indieweb.org/events/2017-06-14-homebrew-website-club#San_Francisco

once I've liked something in my reader, it gets highlighted and also changed from a web action to a link to the permalink.... so I can't like things twice ;-)

Safety check automates the process where geographically confused relatives ask if you're OK when something bad happens within 200 miles.

hiya!
#
Zegnat
Thanks again for making some time to hop on the call yesterday :)
#
[markmhendrickso
thanks for having me! i'll try to make the full one next time
#
Zegnat
Nice! If you have ideas for a different platform than talky.io let us know. Apparently Talky burns my limited bandwidth when the call gets bigger.

#
[markmhendrickso
i usually use google hangouts or skype for group video calls but i don't imagine they're open to anonymous callers, assuming that's important here?
friedcell joined the channel
#
Zegnat
[markmhendrickso I would like to keep it as open as possible. Skype would require people to exchange contact info prior to HWC, right?
#
Zegnat
On the other hand, we discussed Mumble, and I don’t know how easy that would be.
#
Zegnat
burned through 5-ish GB of internet during yesterday’s call.
#
Jeena
mumble is fairly easy actually
#
Jeena
I don't recommend hangouts nor skype for meetings like this because they're propriatary and people need an account which not everybody wants to have.
#
Zegnat
I am on 75 GB/month, approx, Jeena ;) So 5 GB for a single call is a little, uuhm.
#
Jeena
sure but all video calls will be like that, mumble as audio only would help there a lot
friedcell joined the channel
#
Zegnat
Anything not P2P would probably be better for me, I was probably streaming video to everyone one-by-one.
#
Zegnat
I think mumble will have the audio go through the server? That would make me use way less bandwidth
#
sknebel
yes, it does. an option for video might be nice, but efficient voice only is important as well
#
[markmhendrickso
@zegnat it seems that with skype these days you can pass out a link to anyone who wants to join and contact exchange isn't needed (anymore?), but per @jeena's point, it's def proprietary and accounts are needed for everyone (i assume)
#
Zegnat
Skype might also be a problem for Linux users, judging by petermolnar’s recent mumblings
#
sknebel
does their web version (which rpesumably works with the link?) work on linux?
ricmac joined the channel
#
[markmhendrickso
i haven't tried their web version for calls unfortunately, just messages
#
[markmhendrickso
but it appears capable
#
sknebel
discord also is quite popular recently. but also closed
