Madness: At first, this was the response: I am tired of thinking. I am tired of caring. Why can't you let us have fun and be comfortable while the house burns down? Isn't that what is truly radical? Why do you hate us? Why do you hate fun? You know when you put it that way.. it truly sounds like ins...

OiStepanka

I just wanna take the time to thank all of your for your responses and insights and especially Madness for continuing to reply with quality posts throughout this whole shutdown. Like doing that.. actually has had an effect, especially on me as an individual. I can now respond back and forth with peo...

A bit preoccupied at the moment but I wanted to say, in looking up some of the history of the Beat generation thanks to abacus. I've begun to grasp why the YW movement, as madness has stated, is counter culture as opposed to subculture. I took the time to think about the evolution of different subcu...

ch1rx30 » Thu Apr 20, 2023 9:13 pm Update: I tried. Results were... interesting. Consensus (of a small sample) was that the underground is a "secret third thing" which is kind of evasive but characteristic. Definitely got through to a few people before discord fell apart (still not sure i...

I found myself inspired by a post on this subject on the gemini protocol. Which got me thinking that it's good to delete things sometimes. When I think of digital hoarding, I think of all the bookmarks I save in browsers and never go back to. Or the time I've out grown my hard disk real estate. Ofte...

I've heard a lot of "how much work could moderation actually be" on the sidelines, and man, I just don't know how to respond to that. It's an incredible amount of work, if you strive to do it in the most constructive way possible. There are certainly ways to moderate that can conserve ene...

I just want to say ..

You folks are beautiful in your exchanges. @ Madness and @Purely Constructive, @ Sadness and so many others, Ray included. I feel as though anything that comes out of here will be the foundation of a greater tomorrow.

Probably have 30.. after being on the net so long. I'm not even going to lie it might be 45.. business email. school emails, uni email. professional emails, I didn't give a sh** emails. Like... probably have a gigantic digital foot print LOL

And the work is getting done ^_^

I was active in the Yesterweb Discord server from around its beginning to March 2022, about half of its lifespan. Hi. I saw you had an account here and I was wondering if you would show up to the party. :P After all of our messages back and forth it should be no surprise to you that if I was going ...

Yeah, my cat’s an annoying pest. When he’s hungry, he will never stop following you around and meowing at you until you feed him. At least looking after him is easy, because that’s all you do with cats, feed them, and they do the rest themselves. Loads more responsibility with dogs. It’s why I’m mo...

Does anyone feel like we are just hoarding information online sometimes.. Like there is so much information that we bookmark it and never come back? I like this community because it's encouraged to be active and engage in critical thinking and dialogue : a word that I really didn't grasp all that mu...

I read that cats can meow within a wider range of tones and pitches than a dog can bark. Dog: One Bark Mountain Cat: I WILL BE HEARD BY ALL SPECIES OF BIRD, OF KOI FISH, OF WORMS, OF GIRLS, AND BOYS, AND YOU WILL NOT IGNORE ME BECAUSE I AM ADORABLE, I GET MORE HUGS AND LOVE FROM THE FLUFF ABOVE.

Whatttt I've never heard of this before. Idk if I could ever do this well but how do I learn more. uhhh I learned it from venezuelans on twitter a couple of years ago. where do you learn about it now? no idea. it might be documented somewhere on a venezuelan website, if it isn't still happening on ...

I expect the leader of Discord to get dragged into Congress to explain what Jason Citron should have done to stop the posting of Pentagon Papers.

That probably will be the case at some point.

OiStepanka

Wow. What a predicament.

Nonetheless, I am incredibly proud of the contributions that I did make to this community, and I am grateful to have crossed paths with so many of you in the "vastness of the web", as Auzzie said. My hope now— my goal now, is to make sure this internal fire does not go out, that the energ...

OiStepanka

You may be correct, but I think what Ocean said has some truth to it as well. There are a lot of people who just don't care. The manifesto was partly written to attract those people who do care. We learned through past experience that it was extremely hard to get people who don't care to start cari...

OiStepanka

@ Madness The above is a really interesting read. In my previous post when I said that there are certain people you should really keep close because they are the kind of people you are looking for. In my estimate, Ray was definitely one of them. I admire how she reaches out to this community, how sh...

OiStepanka

This was a fascinating read - I feel like I can't really understand where you're coming from, because I think we've simply had very different experiences? For example, I sort of understand from your post that you often find yourself in spaces that value positivity more than anything else, and so ki...

OiStepanka

Ahhh thank you! <3 I will look into it when I have a lil more free time to properly delve into something new! I gotta be honest, when I sent you the Archive's way, I had no idea there was something like this set in place for people to help out. I'm excited!!! Wow! Then that was a lucky recommendati...

OiStepanka

@ Owocean I don't think its that people don't care about the movement. There is just a section of the population you will NEVER get back i.e. the people who grew up with the internet during its infancy and now are permanently siloed to the Big Box stores of the net. You guys are what make the net in...

Like many others. I am sad this place is shutting down but I am sure that many of us will meet again elsewhere. I don't know if I would have been able to to join archive team and start saving websites if it wasn't for being here and being able to ask. So I thank you guys for that. I think the intern...

What a nightmare! The Internet Archive does fantastic work and in a day and age where people can do so much themselves? How do publishers respond? By attacking the resources that make people independent of them. Like Blog47177 said, it does come down to who has the business skills. And I would like ...

Update: Howdy, So I did tons of reading, learned how to download and install Archive Team's Warrior to back up websites and posts from online. I’ve begun using it to work on other projects and now when the team launches the official DP Review Job I am ready to help with the archiving process! The ot...

Thank You Ray for the update. I've been doing a lot of reading and learning about what is going on and what can be done. I still have some more reading to do but do humbly admit this is a monuments endeavor to the point I'm taken a back. I'm really glad that there are many people trying to archive t...

A resource that is Amazon.com owned.. is being shut down and permanently deleted. To many in the photography community, this is akin to shu...
