Does the person I'm texting also need to have telegram installed? Seems to m there's a shit load of messaging software out there.

a power end user it is insulting.
So well, it gets the job done but it is not *that* good.
It certainly beats the crap out of Whatsapp because
Whatsapp non-mobile implementation is a JOKE (Telegram's
suck but it DOES work), and they have the same problems
Telegram does without its advantages (like propper bot
support and not being related to Facebook).
This is the reason why I am staying away from marihuana
products for my store. A 15 ml. flask of OCB oil at a
pitiful concentration is worth 60 eur to the public,
because it is early technology in Spain. The problem is
that 6 months from now this thing would be worth half of
that so if I get a big shipment (which is the only way of
turning a profit nowadays) I will have to eat every unsold
unit after 6 months, or sell them at a loss.

Ok.. I dunno what Electron is. I might look it up. But wrt
RAM, the DT version on my XP laptop only uses up an extra 200KB
of RAM after it loads.
Well you can't have your cake and eat it too. Either you allow big corporations to consolodate your information in return for convenience, or you're stuck using seperate programmes for individual needs and requirements.
yeah, i'll do that instead of handing my life over to a company that's already been convicted in court multiple times for collecting and misusing user information.
Or you use a program that incorporates all the functionality you need but works in a federated manned. Something like Retroshare, which provides chats and forums, videos and filesharing and what else, but each user runs their own instances.
Think of email, in which you have your own email server but may send messages to people who uses a different email server.
Also, if you can set an access point in a settlement in the middle of nowhere and grant 1 meg per user, it is a massive upgrade for people who had nothing before.
Or, actually, a massive downgrade, because the Facebooks and Googles of this world will now start playing with their minds for their own goals...

Perhaps they use the phone for authentication because the app
was originally a phone app? ...and DT version came later?

I am sure is great and all but for something to be viable it has to be used much of the population. I could probably have a small cluster of friends on niche application such as Retroshare but then I would still have to use WhatsApp to speak with the rest of the normies in my chat group. I am not saying that WhatsApp, FaceBook and Twitter, etc... are all amazing but the superior versions run by companies that respect privacy are not known by the wider population.
There are a load of others, and most of them are shit, indeed.

that you can see how it looks and works on Telegram. Most
fidonet groups still need "real names", but as long as you sign
your message with your real name that should be good enough for
most moderators.

..but something I have noticed is that common users are no
longer capable of using user/password combinations at all.
I am sure developers are aware of this.
What I mean is that is is extremely common for end users to
set an user/password for some service, such as email. Then
they load their access credentials in some program or
application that manages them automatically so they never
have to type them ever again. Then a catastrophe happens to
device that stored the credentials, and when they want to
access the service from a new device they discover it is
user/password protected _AND THEY DIDN'T REMEMBER IT WAS
USER/PASSWORD PROTECTED AT ALL_.
The simple solution is to skip the password system and use
SMS verification. It sucks for power users because power
users understand there is no reason why the provider should
have your phone number at all and it is just a maneuver for
their gain and nothing else.But it helps them deal with the
sheeple with less work.
I think if some niche software you can use with your small group of friends, it *is* a viable program.
I have 2000+ contacts in my address book and I only talk to 4 of them regularly. Most often by phone. You don't need a program that lets you talk to three million people, you need a program that lets you talk to the five people who matters to you.
This is specially true because mainstream messengers are so abused that a message you send is unlikely to be read on time if it is urgent. I have a professional phone with some mainstream messenger installed and it is close to useless. People are just sick of messengers and just does not check them out very often anymore. Or they just check the chats of the three people who matters to them.

it's not really that they are unknown. the problem is they suck and nobody wants to use one. if you show someone a bbs, they dont want to use it. they have no reason to use it.

that duck-n-run, the fidonet ones are private or invite only.
Originally (about a year ago now) that meant that an existing
member was needed to "invite" another person OR add that person
to a group. However (now about a year later), it is self
administrating.
If you already have Telegram set up, there are only two steps
to link up:
[1] Send a %LIST command in the chat with the @Fido2telebot for
list of available areas.
[2] Send a %help command in the chat with the @Fido2telebot for
more info.
The %LIST will send you a full list of echos available to join
by providing the invite links for you. The list may take a few
minutes to arrive (it's also in two parts).
The specifically "Fidonet" (English) ones will have "Fidonet"
in the description. There is one echo/group exception,
FIDOTEST; that one is English too.
After you've joined a group/echo, you will be able to read the
back history of messages. But you will be able to POST only
after you complete a part of the %userprofile with the
@Fido2telebot bot.
The %userprofile allows you to create an optional tagline, a
signature, a real name, etc. This is akin to a minimum
registration on a BBS.

In any case, the folks at Telegram are very helpful if you run
into a ban situation and explain the circumstances. My number
was banned at one point. My number is a standard number with my
cellphone. By then, I had already installed Telegram on 3
devices. I just wanted one more device. But as soon as I went
to register/activate the installation, I got a "number is
banned" message. :( But an email to Telegram Support sorted
it all out within 12 hours.

I wasn't trying to be offensive... only mentioning that 16+ has been
widely available for a while, at least in the US. I'm often very
surprised when I see something with less than 8gb.
There's definitely some hard press to try to get something running that
low on resources with a modern desktop. There was some options in
Windows XP that let you use a fast USB or other drive as extension
memory. Not sure if you can still do that in Windows or Linux.

i was like god damn dude. you should be on a government watch list.
he wasn't that bad before, he must be using crystal meth or huffing.
atleast he took down the confederate flag off the wall.
Jesus fuck, that guy.

how the hell did he get the source to ProBoard? A few years ago Philippe mentioned he wanted to give away the source code on Twitter, and a year later he said there were some copyright issues.
ProBoard was the first BBS software I ever seriously ran, because all the BBSes in this area used it. (Mr. Homie's Neighborhood, which moved down to Milwaukee was one of them).
I eventually moved to Synchronet in the late 90s and didn't really look back.
philippe did say he wouldnt give it out because of copyright issues. clawson's estate could sue over it being distributed.
according to his
obituary he has heirs. https://obits.mlive.com/us/obituaries/flint/name/patrick-clawson -obituary?pid=176308972

I tried to find out what happened to Telegrafix and Clawson yesterday, I came across that Obituary but didn't think it was his, as there was no mention of running a company, or living in CA or VA (Where Telegrafix came from/moved to)

There's definitely some hard press to try to get something running that
low on resources with a modern desktop. There was some options in
Windows XP that let you use a fast USB or other drive as extension
memory. Not sure if you can still do that in Windows or Linux.
I was testing some setup for deployment yesterday. I used a workstation
of 2 GB of RAM and a processor so cingeworthy I am not going to ashame myself by giving its specs here.

I don't think I've ever actually seen a ProBoard system. <shrug>
Really wanting to switch back to Linux (PopOS), but also wanting to
try some AI up-scaling for video, that's limited to Windows. May have
to stick a second drive in again so I can dual-boot cleaner.
Is it Topaz Video Enhance AI by chance? I've been using that on and
off since about April last year to do some video upscaling. I've
considered switching to Linux for a long time but haven't due to
software, and now Topaz Video Enhance AI is one reason why.

That would be the one... been meaning to play with it, I have some DVDs that don't have HD versions that I'd been wanting to upscale, though
dual boot should work for the future... also, not sure how much I'm willing to deal with the secure boot in windows, and if it will/won't work in Linux for me.
How has it been working for you... now that I have a 3080, hoping it
will chew through it relatively quickly.

I didn't know he passed away. Thanks.

I remember when I talked to Pat on the phone once or twice he liked to brag about his experience at CNN and his accumulated awards. It sounds like the right guy to me.
nobody uses instant msging anymore.
Shame actually. I got on the net in 1996 and ICQ and IRC were my main means of communication. I loved getting the oh-ow sounds when logging in, having people reach out to me and exchanging messages.

I used ICQ, AIM, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger...I still remember my ICQ

end I used some multi-messenger program, I forgot which, but then
people started moving away and using FB and snapchat and stuff.

I don't have a snap, or a tictok...well, I do because I had to post something for a contest, but other than that I never use them.
There was a golden age where GAIM (and it's later incarnation, Pidgin) were a part of work and play. I had a security chat on SILC, some friends on Yahoo, work used AIM (with a proxy so we could connect when the net was down), I had a Jabber server running, and other friends elsewhere. Skype even worked, if only for chat. I'd even had it plugged into Synchro.net's IRC network.
i think someone just posted it on the internet. he has paid people for it in the past, or so he says so he thinks he owns it. he said he paid clawson money for it and he got an asm dump. pcmike looked at the paperwork and the signatures were all computer generated. he would talk about it on irc and i'd go back in the logs and catch him lying so who knows what the truth is.
"Yes, it's legit, he "bought" the rights from Jeff Reeder, former employee of Telegrafix. Although I have my doubts about who actually had the rights to ProBoard after Pat died."
I mean, he looks like he lives in a trailer park, so it can't be much...

seem to work well all the time with all the different chat protocols.
I knew a couple people who used Pidgin & similar, and sometimes it
seemed their chat app would report me online when I wasn't or
vice-versa. Or sometimes I'd try to send them a file from my chat
client and they couldn't receive it, etc..
did you purposely not quote the date so i couldnt call you a necroposter

It only just showed up here so either something got something stuck and finally send it out, or someone dumped a lot of dupes that were so old I didn't have them any more so no idea.
There is no hard rule for defining what is necro and what is not. I think something is necro when it happens long after interest on the thread has waned.

time reading black tomes while listening to The Spell and raising dead threads from the grave.

What I think is funny/odd is, if someone starts a new thread about the same topic, that's fine. But some people seem to get annoyed when someone responds to another thread about the same topic if it's a somewhat old thread. I guess we shouldn't assume the original poster is still interested (but maybe they are). But if people can start new threads, I don't see why it should be such a big deal to respond to other threads regarding the same topic.
