When did he say he wanted to leave? I see no msg from his side.
<Regenaxer>
Yeah, not here. He wrote it to me in DeltaChat
<Blue_flame>
Specific reason as to why?
<Regenaxer>
Yes, he said he has a new job which gives him less time :(
<Regenaxer>
So it looks like he won't show up any more :(
<Blue_flame>
Due to work, okay. He can try to squeeze some time once a while. But if he says he can't then must be very busy.
<Regenaxer>
T. He stays in the mailing list he said
<mtsd>
tankf33der, wish you all the best and good luck at your new job. We'll miss you here though!
<Regenaxer>
Hi mtsd! :)
<Regenaxer>
Perhaps he reads the irc log :)
<mtsd>
hi Regenaxer! Yes, I hoped for that :)

<rick42>
hi peeps
<Regenaxer>
Halloo rick42 o/
<rick42>
tankf33der is a very important to, even an integral part of, the community.
<rick42>
Regenaxer: \o
<Regenaxer>
yes, he contributed a big lot
<rick42>
i hope that he will still be around, even if less frequently
<rick42>
T
<Regenaxer>
He likes abrupt cuts :) A few years ago he quit twitter suddenly
<rick42>
i know how he feels about work. I'm on travel and working MORE. lol
<Regenaxer>
:)
<rick42>
Regenaxer: he knows want he wants :)
<Regenaxer>
Exactly
<Regenaxer>
Similarly, I'll quit WhatsApp in the not too far future
<Regenaxer>
Switch to DeltaChat ;)
<rick42>
ok
<rick42>
(I don't know either :)
<rick42>
i know what they are but never used them
<Regenaxer>
(though beneroth dislikes it)
<Regenaxer>
Seems a good cimpromize
<Regenaxer>
What I like is: With DeltaChat *I* am in control
<rick42>
oh ok
<Regenaxer>
No proprietary server, my contacts stay here, I can verify the encryption, and I can backup all data
<rick42>
end-to-end encryption?
<Regenaxer>
I think it is no problem that it is based e-mails
<Regenaxer>
it is just the medium
<rick42>
ok
<Regenaxer>
yes, end-to-end
<rick42>
yeah i have no problem with emails
<rick42>
actually prefer them
<Regenaxer>
metadata are visible
<rick42>
ofc
<Regenaxer>
but at least not in one central place
<rick42>
because email :)
<Regenaxer>
T ☺
<clacke_movim>
E-mail, the original federated social network on the internet, older than TCP/IP, even.
<Regenaxer>
Right
<clacke_movim>
Alas, I am too young to have ever used bangpaths
<Regenaxer>
bangpath?
<clacke_movim>
user!mynearestserver!thatserversneighbor!usersserver rather than user@usersserver
<Regenaxer>
In fact, I used email first in 1987 or so, via a packet-switching network (DATEX-P in Germany)
<Regenaxer>
ah
<Regenaxer>
I used it directly on a remote Unix machine
<Regenaxer>
$ mail <user>
<Regenaxer>
a machine in Japan while I was in Germany
<clacke_movim>
I have sent one message over the Swedish corporate X.25-carried network Memo once
<Regenaxer>
Costed about 0.5 Deutsche Mark per minute
<Regenaxer>
yes, X.25 was the term
<clacke_movim>
But it doesn't really count, it was in 1998 and the company had really switched to email already
<clacke_movim>
Memo had a user directory, so I could look my sister's Memo address at another company
<clacke_movim>
And in 1998 some people were still complaining that email didn't.have some of the neat features in Memo like reliable retraction of a message sent by mistake or in error
<Regenaxer>
:)
<Regenaxer>
The oldest mail I have in my folder:
