This is an xkcd about why the majority is wrong. ;) [[Special:Contributions/108.162.229.238|108.162.229.238]] 16:32, 6 January 2017 (UTC) seirl

F1rst. Jokes aside, wrote you guys something to work with. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.107.198|141.101.107.198]] 16:34, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

:See [[1258: First]] and [[269: TCMP]]. Well funny enough you were neither the first to edit the page nor the talk page :-) Thanks for the start, but try to not delete the incomplete tag, but just write first draft or add what you can see is missing. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 16:40, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

I find it funny how I'm editing the article, fixing the incomplete parts, then all of a sudden (as soon as I click "enter", I must add), someone's already fixed the incomplete parts, and there was a "conflict with the edit". :P --[[User:JayRulesXKCD|'''JayRules''XKCD'''  ]]<sup>[[User talk:JayRulesXKCD|what's up?]]</sup> 18:47, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

My first addition here, tried to explain skype vs slack and the title text. Feel free to roast me constructively :D Hope I didn't go too deep in Slack, thought most people don't know it and my little experience may help :) Also hope my unix tools explanation won't offend too many people; I'm a happy screen user myself, but it does have quite a bit of a learning curve. --[[Special:Contributions/141.101.96.88|141.101.96.88]] 19:20, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Well, at least not [http://tools.suckless.org/ii/ ii] [[Special:Contributions/172.68.11.47|172.68.11.47]] 02:13, 7 January 2017 (UTC)


Well, I think Randal is slightly off, it more goes like this:

2006: The company officially use Messenger - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2009: The company officially use Skype - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2012: The company officially use Lync - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2014: The company officially use Slack - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

2016: The company officially use Teams - Except all of development ignores it and use IRC

:: randall didnt mention discord? smh [[Special:Contributions/162.158.58.159|162.158.58.159]] 21:18, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
::XMPP?

I find it strange no-one has mentioned that IRC let's you run your own servers, with no 3rd party involved; whereas Skype & Slack both depend upon centralized corporate-owned servers, which are forced to silently comply with surveillance requests without so much as a warrant. That's just unacceptable for many dev groups. (Hence the popularity of apps like Discord.)

I had a lot of trouble viewing this page in Lynx through the Worldgroup gateway on a local dial-up Bulletin Board System. I think it's a problem with my QModem configuration. If anyone can help, please contact me on IRC. I'm usually available in the #Kaypro users room. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.221.46|108.162.221.46]] 21:59, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

:Surveillance requests are not be only reason Skype is monitoring your communication. Try to enter url into Skype: it will be visited by msnbot. I don't care why: that's something tool for devs shouldn't be doing. -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 06:34, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

:I've seen this before, I'd guess the problem is with your 56K modem, during its handshake protocol I'm sure it's going *squeak!* when it's supposed to be going *squawk!*. Just disconnect and reconnect the phone line and make sure no phones are off the hook, then disconnect / reconnect again. That should fix you right up! And remove the AOL disc from the drive, those things are always causing problems. Oh, and sometimes being connected to IRQ or MSN Messenger can interfere, connect with them afterwards. - NiceGuy1 [[Special:Contributions/162.158.126.76|162.158.126.76]] 05:16, 11 January 2017 (UTC) I finally signed up!

So this past fall I remember seeing a bunch of web (and TV?) ads for Slack. You think Munroe got any kickback from Slack for this comic? It's worth noting that:
:- Microsoft launched Skype for Business in April 2015 (as a replacement to Lync). I would imagine that Skype is one of their biggest competitors, especially because Skype is included with Office, and just last month Slack introduced video calling.
:- Last week Slack announced they "invested in nearly a dozen new bot startups to bolster its Slack App Directory" (from VentureBeat). Techy folks who look up Slack after seeing Friday's comic are likely to see this news.
Maybe this is part of an "undergroundy" ad campaign by Slack? After reading the comic I certainly was subliminally thinking that Skype is sooo 2010; 2017 is the year of Slack! Great comic regardless. </conspiracytheories> [[Special:Contributions/162.158.63.4|162.158.63.4]] 00:11, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Dammit, Dave, just become one with the singularity! We have IRC here too! --[[User:GranadalandDreamer|GranadalandDreamer]] ([[User talk:GranadalandDreamer|talk]]) 01:39, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Is there a need to explain "All consciousnesses have merged with the Galactic Singularity", or is it clear enough for XKCD readers?  I mean - I've read "The Last Question" by Isaac Asimov, where this happens (including the one guy who isn't ready to go), but I'm old.  I'm ''fifty''.
Also "Ch*ldh**d's End" - kind of a spoiler.  And "The Heechee Saga".

A [https://bitlbee.org real life IRC gateway to everything]

Has anyone ever looked at the history section of Internet Chat Relay on Wikipedia?

"In July 1996, after months of flame wars and discussions on the mailing list, there was yet another split due to disagreement in how the development of the ircd should evolve. Most notably, the "European" (most of those servers were in Europe) side that later named itself IRCnet argued for nick and channel delays where the EFnet side argued for timestamps. There were also disagreements about policies: the European side had started to establish a set of rules directing what IRCops could and could not do, a point of view opposed by the US side.

Most (not all) of the IRCnet servers were in Europe, while most of the EFnet server were in the US. This event is also known as "The Great Split" in many IRC societies. EFnet has since (as of August 1998) grown and passed the number of users it had then. In the autumn year 2000, EFnet had some 50,000 users and IRCnet 70,000."

Someone needs to get in touch with the writers of History Channel's documentaries and pitch this.

−	::I gave up with Screen. I would try ~~tmux~~, but their documentation doesn't include verbs. Plus, my iPad keeps changing 'tmux' to 'thus' and doesn't support sending six-key combinations over ssh when I am using handwriting recognition. I need to amortize the cost of the Apple Pencil over something useful to make it a logical decision.	+	::I gave up with Screen. I would try thus, but their documentation doesn't include verbs.
