@purpletinker I see you have an Easy Button... what does it say? =) (I actually brought the Buy Some Apples! easy button to BroNYCon but since I haven't finished sanding the top and recoloring it I didn't auction it.)

Hey @cabal, the Admins page lists you as a hoopy frood... Do you really know where your towel is?

@colfax Either in the bathroom or my car's backseat. Perfect during rainstorms when the passenger door of my car leaks.

@zach specifics?

@ponydude2143 You do not have to use your computer. You use Amazon's cloud servers. Read the print: "To help new customers get started in the cloud, Amazon has introduced a free usage tier. The Tor Cloud images are all micro instances, and new customers can run a micro instance for free for a whole year. The AWS free usage tier also includes 15 GB of bandwidth out per month." The TOR software is designed to limit it to those limits.
-
@abigpony Well, just remember. Just because somebody uses a tool does not mean that they use it in a matter inconstant with law. Personally I use it to test equipment when I need an outside source.

I have a bit of a mini-contest with a real prize. If someone can design a Law enforcement badge design w/transparent background, with the words Brony Intelligence Department (B.I.D.) with the motto of your choosing (must be serious and reflect the Brony community values) I will mail the winner a Crystal Rainbow Dash keychain. png is preferred format, along with a SVG if you know how. It should be something that could be worn in real life, and the deadline? How about January 15th 2011? Oh, and, be creative. #contest

Do you think we have lost a sense of community within the brony community?
Tuesday, 03-Jan-12 22:25:57 UTC from StatusNet iPhone- Milo, Scribus and LyokoTravels repeated this.
-
@eaglehooves I posed the question because I watched a general assembly of Occupy protesters, and saw how much they were enjoying themselves.
-
@cabal Hm. Between here, the Facebook Brony group I'm in, and the Ohio Forum I'm quite enjoying it, and the sense of community is still pretty high (Although, I'll admit RDN is the lowest of the three).
-
@cabal I wouldn't say so. When it started, it seemed centered on /co/, which was 99.9% anonymous. That's not a community in my mind as there are no individuals. Nobody knew anybody else, and it was pure pony discussion, but that was it. Eventually, things developed - RDN, fimchan, ponibooru, !EqDawn, Synchtube, the whole scene. Many of these weren't anonymous; people picked handles, came to know each other. Friendships developed, but tensions also did. Not everyone gets along with everyone else. But that is part of a community. To keep it relatively short, I'd say that from the beginning, we've *gained* a sense of community more than lost it; just because it's not easy doesn't mean it's bad. But what the hell do I know?

@muffin Hay, did you just send me a Note on dA saying you had to drop out of BroNYCon? If so, drop me an email. Trying to free up slots for a couple traveling in from out of state.

@purpletinker Computer Technicians are a dying breed because of the cloud. y/n?
Tuesday, 03-Jan-12 01:26:54 UTC from web-
@cabal Certainly the fact that most try to avoid sites like 4chan is true, but lots of forums and places like yahoo answers, that most users check are full of guys who think they know what they're typing, but don't have a real knowledge over the matter.
-
@cabal Rage indeed xD I mostly work insid the town, though. There was an increase of the sales of computers in the last years here.
-
@cabal So, when you say 'confirmed for BroNYCon' , you mean you are going?

@purpletinker Yes.

Things I did in 2011: Held a brony convention with 300 people at it. Got interviewed by the Wall Street Journal. Made lots of ponies happy (and saved one of them from the streets). That last sentence is the most important.

@purpletinker Why is that banner themed after Rarity, is she the pony of the month or something/
-
@the20percent Every month is Rarity month.
-
@the20percent Seasonal theming. The fall meetup was Applejack (red and yellow, fall colours). The winter meetup is Rarity (white with purple accents).

@purpletinker I love the calendar! Will y'all be selling the images perhaps as miniposters/prints later? I already have waaaaay too many calendars... Or I guess I could buy one and cut it up and frame things...

@sparklepeep That's a great idea. Maybe I will ask the artists if I can sell their prints at BroNYCon on consignment!

@purpletinker hey there, I sent you an email a few days ago but either you have been busy or it didn't get through. So just to be sure, have some copypasta: I was planning on entering the AppleII programming contest for the upcoming BronyCon. However, I have some questions: - Which emulator are you using? Any special settings? - Will the winner be announced during the con? - Will the game be shown live 'on stage'? - If so, what are the chances that someone is filming this and uploading it somwhere? Thanks already for your work, it's appreciated even though I cannot attend. Why must New York be so far away? :( Cheers!

@extrememeasures If you can ponify it, I can get it some press!
-
@purpletinker It's not something that really deserves press; just some laggy game with a few pixels representing RBD. But since you liked AppleIIJack, you might like it, too. I will toss you a copy once I get back home the day after tomorrow. Happy new year until then!
-
@purpletinker Happy new year! I took the Apple II game prototype and saved it as a disk image - you'll find it along with its source and a short note from me here: http://mortmain.de/share/kk/rbdattack.zip I hope you will have time to check it out before you head off to BC. Cheers!

@purpletinker My local Babies 'R' Us sells babies. I don't know what you're talking about.
-
@redenchilada You should resell them on eBay.
-
@purpletinker I'm already doing that! The last one I sold went for $49 - quite a profit!
