"The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common - they don't change their views to fit the facts. They change the facts to fit their views, which can be uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs changing."

Dear friends... It's a bittersweet day for me. I've decided to end the days of providing IRC873. It's been a great several years and I hope you've enjoyed my instance of 'thelounge' being provided to you all as best as I can... But I don't have as much time as I'd like to support it and, therefore, I am ending the service on 1 OCT 2024. Logs will be made available for download directly from my server after the decommission. If you're curious, thelounge is quite easy to install and configure if you'd like to run your own instance, I'm more than willing to provide guidance and what knowledge I have to help you with your own deployment. Thank you for being the best "customers" a service provider could hope for.
