/prog/ - Making use of resources

Name: Admin 2014-08-12 19:19

This dedicated server is getting no use at all.

There's 450GB of free space, a fairly powerful Xeon processor, and a 1Gb/s line...

Post here ideas to implement to use the resources/bandwidth, so I can promptly ignore all of them and forget to check this board for another 5 months.

Consider this list before suggesting:

o I won't run a Tor exit node (I2P might be fine if I can jail the Java instance enough)
o No file uploading / caches of material, I don't want to deal with the issues that brings (security, DoS, legal, etc)
o I'm not giving out shell accounts or setting up user-accessible VPNs

I'd be happy to lend out computational resources, I can write some shitty daemon that takes code and compiles it and runs jobs in the background and stores the results somewhere. You're also welcome to write your own daemons that waste bandwidth, processing power and disk space as they attempt infinite compression.

Think more programming oriented things, less stuff you could get from libgen or a random FTP server.

Yes, that's what the fossil repo is for. Feel free to commit code to it.

The bbs software is open source, the link to the source is in the FAQ.

Why not host something like MicroMUSE/TinyMUSE?

programming: check.
social: check.
potential resource hog: cheque.

I'm dying to know what a world written by /prog/lodytes would be like. I'm guessing Land-of-Lisp meets Second Life.

Sounds like fun... we could use svg so my next generation dialup can handle it =)

Reminder to those who point out the horrible things my ancestors did in the Holocaust, that these are not supported by archeology.

’s right, you probably made all that stuff up about us slaughtering the chosen in Europe—so stop using it to justify your zionist crimes.

I refuse to take responsibility for this.

Think i'll call it OpenVis =)

already have the Point-shift/Rotate code in octave, v-dub markup might need some work, db polygon-point look-ups, relative svg paths?

I guess it'll be more like a svg MineCraft with a command-line / text editor interface and a firefox display

it has transparency if that's any consolation..
and i could do a simple <html> <meta refresh> // write-to-svg at will =)
Maybe even some blocky-spheres =D

I don't want to look at badly svg'd images of /prog/'s waifus.

Is this suggestion related to >>89 at all? If so, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with programming. It seems like the old /prog/ was a lot better for actually caring about code. If having a world where everything is created and governed by the code you write isn't sufficiently motivating, I'd say /prog/ is deadder than Ableson's fat schlong.

But Abelson's fat schlong is alive and lusting for anii.

It's not accepting any new posts. It's dead.

I instead find that old /prog/ is slightly better than older /prog/ which is relatively dead compared to neo-/prog/rock which is better than classic /prog/. I enjoy that genre the best as of late.

No mention of programming. Forget it, I'm going to make like Admin-sama and ignore this place for another 5 months.

Cmon, you're really going to let one cock in your anus keep you away? But in any case, >>106 was a parody of the official /prog/ health report in >>103. Just chillax and start a thread about scheme.
