You should quickly print some IWC posters https://github.com/sebilasse/indieweb-origami/blob/master/Poster/IWC.ai and put those all over the warehousing show ;)

yeah see, when silos do stupid things like this, we need to document it
KevinMarks joined the channel
#

like why are they doing this?
#
tantek
it's like they're trying to alienate people?

Tantek: How about calling it identity theft?

drewinthehead
theft requires ownership, and you never really have that

I suppose not.

looks like wiki has "Involuntary Identity Reassignment"
#
Zegnat
tantek, I am seeing a connection error where your camera is supposed to be :/
#
Zegnat
I think I am only getting half of what tantek is saying :/ Hmmm
#
jeremycherfas
Maybe I should add the writeup of my Tumblr episode to the wiki.

if only there was a way silos could authenticate your identity with a real domain…

I moved to Berlin not long time ago..... I miss my aera.
#
sketchess
ok near Berlin
#
schmarty
tantek: yes indeed! i have been really curious about the micro.blog and [eddie]'s upcoming Indigenous app. seeing your success using an ipod touch at IWS also nudged me to give it a try.
#
Loqi
misses my aera too
#
sketchess
Loqi has a area?
#
schmarty
wonders where Loqi thinks is home
#
Zegnat
Where is home?
#
Zegnat
Where is Loqi?
#
tantek
What is home?
#
Loqi
Your homepage represents you on the web, typically at the top of your domain, and shows your name and an iconic representation, often marked up with h-card https://indieweb.org/home
#
Zegnat
gives Loqi a home
#
Loqi
crushes the home
#
sketchess
what??? o.O
#
tantek
gives Loqi nice things
#
gRegorLove
what time is it for Loqi?

In Loqi's timezone, US/Pacific, it is currently 11:18am on July 26

[eddie] just a quick update: new HWC event pages have been created. I don’t think yours counts as a “regular” yet, but because you are actively organising all the information is still on the pages and just commented out. Feel free to flip the switch and make your HWC visible whenever you want (and whenever you know you will continue to organise)!
#
[eddie]
Zegnat: sounds perfect. I'm definitely not counted as regular yet, I'm happy to just uncomment and make it visible when applicable
