/q/ - arisuchan meta

I kinda like the new front page. Nice and minimalist while still being functional.

Love the new one!

Ok. What''s happening? I like the new page.

You're assuming that every Lain is a Marxist when that is definitely not true.

There's room for other ideologies. Fuck authoritarianism tbh.

Take it back from the jews

>>1275
Jews are a central figure because they contributed so much to communism.

>>1274
If pains arn't meant to be Marxist why are we associated with 0Chan? Checkmate.

Marxism is always relevant as Marxism is the future.

wtf people.

>>1276
Just because 0chan is an affiliate doesn't mean that everyone personally endorses 0chan. Likewise, I think Tsukichan is to some extent a suicide cult. Visiting a site with a community that promotes the free and open exchange of ideas that happens to be affiliates with a couple of other websites doesn't make you an automatic supporter of said affiliates.

Appledude dun goofed up or something like that.

Some then-moderators of the original Lainchan thought that Appleguy wasn't competent in his role as admin. So those mods separated from Applelain and founded the second Lainchan for which we still search a diffrerent name. Maybe we aren't going to find a new name for this site but instead it's going to find us. Keep the brainstorming going, though.

s/thought/knew/

ok thanks guys.

That's pretty much what I gathered and I think this place is the one for me.

^_^

It dates back to the time when lainchan was an experimental imageboard project, which was just a database available at db.lainchan.net, which could be queried remotely in whatever manner. There was also in lainchan.net (now defunct) an imageboard that would interface with the database, but having such a tech savvy userbase, users were encouraged to use their own methods. So people started hosting their own lainchans which would all interface with the central database, and add their own stuff.
Several lainchans come to existence, most of which are defunct now. The bigger ones were the one started by Appleman (.org) and Seph (.jp) and others would have a slightly smaller userbase. Each made their own improvements to their custom imageboard software (.org allowed you to "tag your jokes" for example).
But some day Kalyx, the original owner of lainchan.net became homeless, sold his Macs and his copy of SICP and enrolled in the navy (because he's a huge glitterboy) and pulled the plug on lainchan.net wiping all the content on it. With the database gone, each lainchan had to start from scratch, and the bigger ones thrived while the smaller ones eventually died out. There was even an Emacs mode to fetch from .net but of course it's useless now.
Open your eyes, Obama is spraying us with chemtrails, and there are gold sniffers from Nibiru who raise us like cattle so we can keep on supplying them with gold so that they can live forever.

Air Force


can confirm.

Do people still use this site? :I

>>1149
maaaybe?

>>1145
Just kinda waiting to see what you guys wanna do about the name thing. How are things with you?

>>1149
/q/ is not on /all so I rarely check it.

Living the dream.

theirs is fake

I can't see why a site like this would need a warrant canary. Even if swim was up to no good, they could simply browse lainchan on a differnet vpn or on the clearnet. There is no reason to associate the IP you do naughty things through with this site; this site is also not illegal and I can't see a three letter organization serving this site a subpoena for the IP of the person who posted the slightly nsfw glasses waifu pic.

8ch does have their /leftypol/ sub, which is infinitely more tolerable than the /pol/'s on other chans.

but yeah the whole place is generally filled with /pol/ soykaf.

>>1176

I always thought of /leftypol/ as their containment board, their equivalent of /r/the_donald. Their admins and mods can point to it and say "see? we're pro-free-speech, we're not chock-full of $stereotypicaluser, honest", despite the rest of the site being filled with exactly that.

8chan is garbage. I like the idea of people being able to move from board to board but the community there is absolutely terrible and the sites owned by known data miner jim watkins. Seriously , the contents low quality and the site breaks down on a regular basis. There's a better way honestly.

>>1200
>there's a better way.
Name it.

>>1218
wiping the servers and splitting into a new community with the same name.

>>1113
>We can still prototype stuff but try to take this into account.
Then why not prototype ideas for arisuchan/alicechan? That is the whole point of the banners in >>777.

>>1114
>Then why not prototype ideas for arisuchan/alicechan?

so is this the name now?

>>1116
No, but that doesn't mean we can't explore the concept.

>>1117
I agree with
>>1116
Alice was an important part of the series, so regardless she should have prototype things for her

We should make some of the banners shirts :)
I would love that

If you really want to participate "in this community," don't you owe it to the rest of us to actually spend five minutes of your time having a look around instead of asking the same questions that have been both asked and answered a million times before?

>Why on earth is Kalyx an administrator here?
respect
>Why, then, is the very man who SOLD OFF applechan to the highest bidder a part of the administration team?
Kalyx sold the site when he was in a bad place. 5,000 is only enough for a couple months of rent, gas, and groceries when you're unemployed and need to buy a new car. Also, Kalyx isn't in a position to sell the whole site again.
>Not to mention, the .org administration is criticised for not having backups (a fair point) but it was kalyx who deleted every board's content in the first place?
Read his blog: soykaf.org
>now trying to redirect the community to a lainchan fork so that you in effect gain 5 grand for doing literally nothing.
if it were that simple things would be over by now. but they're not. Kalyx is taking heavy losses here.

See >>630 and >>647 for more details.

>>776
More like >>3 and >>620

>>776
>>soykaf.org
So Kalyx purposely deleted applechan? I understand he's goin for the entire "things were wild back then" edgy thing but in reality that he's just losing face.

Also does anyone know why this site is overheating my laptop?

After flushing the cache it seems to be working again. Thanks for reporting it!

Still happening here.
