  1. Oh man with RDN refresh it feels like the old tiems

    1. @meloetta Just pause refreshing because otherwise it'll screw up the timeline.

    2. @meloetta What is that?

      1. @metaltao Before the auto-updating scripts were added to the site, we used client-side scripts to do the same. The latest versions had quite a few functions still missing from the server-side plugin.

        1. @nerthos OOOOOO! Sounds like Reds doing!

          Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:23:30 UTC from web
          1. @metaltao No, it's from before red worked on the site's code. It was first made by @haganbmj and then mantained by @widget until he added the server plugins.

            1. @nerthos SOUNDS AWESOME

              1. @metaltao I had loads of fun with it back in the day. @nlghtmaremoon or @twitch or whateer he goes as these days made a modification to the code to allow for deleted posts to remain on the timeline, marked as such, until manually refreshed. Then widget added code for the script to auto-update to the latest version, and later on to disable itself automatically when the server plugin was active, which I removed. Widget used to complain about my efforts to keep using the older versions instead of the updated ones he released.

                1. @nerthos Sounds like a blast, I feel like I should be archiving the History of RDN or something...

                  Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:38:43 UTC from web
                  1. @metaltao I'm kind of an RDN historian. I think there's one or two more people around who do the same.

                    Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:39:14 UTC from web
                    1. @nerthos LET ME TELL YA ABOUT THE STARGAZER WAR

                      Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:39:45 UTC from web
                      1. @meloetta YES COMRADE MELO, EDUCATE THESE TODDLERS

                        Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:40:56 UTC from web
                    2. @nerthos Logging how RDN has changed and also how it has changed others, a personal retrospective?

                      Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:40:38 UTC from web
                      1. @metaltao Important events, changes, and all that.

                        Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:41:32 UTC from web
                        1. @nerthos Yes!

                          Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:42:11 UTC from web
                          1. @metaltao Somewhere among my posts are detailed accounts of stuff from 2011 and 2012.

                            Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:42:55 UTC from web
                            1. @nerthos COOL! If I do, can I have permission to save those posts onto a text document?

                              Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:44:17 UTC from web
                              1. @metaltao Sure, save whatever you want from my profile. IMO the site's content should still be under a creative commons license. No idea why it was changed to private.

                                Thursday, 14-Aug-14 23:45:40 UTC from web
                2. @nerthos Ah the good ole days <3

                  Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 08:51:49 UTC from web
                  1. @twitch Oh hey dude

                    Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 08:53:13 UTC from web
                    1. @nerthos Hey! how goes life and whatnot?

                      Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 08:54:13 UTC from web
                      1. @twitch Life is good on my end. Currently playing clicker games and thinking about wether I should go to bed. How's things on your end?

                        Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 08:55:22 UTC from web
                        1. @nerthos good to hear, I'm doing good, I fell asleep after work.... and now I'm up... so I figured I would try to catch up on places of ancient history, and try to get some more sleeps soon.

                          Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 08:57:53 UTC from web
                          1. @twitch Always nice to sleep a bit after work. That is, of course, as long as there's nothing to do.

                            Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 08:59:44 UTC from web
                            1. @nerthos - nods - It was kind of nice ^_^

                              Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:02:21 UTC from web
                              1. @twitch What kind of work do you do? It's been to long, and if you ever told me this before, I already forgot.

                                Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:03:20 UTC from web
                                1. @nerthos I was selling, and repairing pianos way back.... I am now a controls Engineer. Proof the economy is getting just a touch better :p

                                  Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:05:35 UTC from web
                                  1. @twitch That does sound better. Controls as in production line robotics?

                                    Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:09:50 UTC from web
                                    1. @nerthos sort of, I work on automated package sortation systems.

                                      Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:11:25 UTC from web
                                      1. @twitch Oh. Well, that's an area of work I have 0 knowledge of.

                                        Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:12:37 UTC from web
                                        1. @nerthos Is one of the many things I set up, and program for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71JytjRVGrI

                                          Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:22:09 UTC from web
                                          1. @twitch OK that looks more interesting than I thought it would be

                                            Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:24:44 UTC from web
                                            1. @nerthos lol! It had its ups and downs... one up all the travel I get to do... one down all the travel I have to do :P

                                              Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:30:09 UTC from web
                                              1. @twitch Guess that depends on what kind of travel you're doing. A 6 hour bus ride isn't as fun as a hour and a half high velocity train ride.

                                                Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:31:24 UTC from web
                                                1. @nerthos Thankfully most of my travel is by plane

                                                  Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:37:38 UTC from web
                                                  1. @twitch Going from plant to plant to set up the systems?

                                                    Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:40:55 UTC from web
                                                    1. @nerthos yep ^_^

                                                      Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:43:46 UTC from web
                                                      1. @twitch At the very least stagnation is not an issue

                                                        Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:44:43 UTC from web
                                                        1. @nerthos Very true!

                                                          Tuesday, 09-Sep-14 09:45:51 UTC from web
    3. @meloetta You'll be telling your grandchildren stories of manually refreshing

    4. @ellie I don't think I'd make much money out of an RDN book.
