Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I didn't coach it or anything. I asked it what hexbear was then I asked it about controversies internally then I asked this

Something along those lines it was earlier today

I'm bad at compyootah but have old ones I'd be willing to set up up and suck internet if there's a way to do it effectively

Go for it if you like, but I think our time would honestly be better spent elsewhere. Also, takes a lot of energy.

Mine is but I'm not a geekazoid, it could be fairly easy for some computer egghead. I dunno. And the energy cost would be that of hosting text. The scraping consumes the energy Moreno than what is scraped.

If you got some nerds to set it up in the first place, could do something like the archive team's warrior ls https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/ArchiveTeam_Warrior

They are easy to deploy VM that turns your machine over to their ends when you choose. Ala SETI@home for those who remember. But more sophisticated.
