at this point, we sould tag those images #gotzot (then I'll add "gotzot" to n.s.f.w. plugin )

So when will Friendica or Red start offering phone service? I'll switch!

friendica. has two video chat addons. one in the official repository, WebRTC, and one at friendica-addons.com I forgot the exact name of. No phone service but at least video conference.

I was being a bit facetious, since the US NSA is tapping into the phone service. Who knows what the Brazilian government is doing, eh?

Working with Arto, seems the video addon only works with PC/Firefox, I couldn't get it working in the Mac/Firefox version. Nor on Safari, though my OS hasn't been updated lately, which also keeps me, I think, from getting the latest version of Safari.

Have a great day!

it should work with recent versions of Firefox, chrome [ium]and opera at least.

Hmm, you may have to install the latest version of Firefox on your Mac. What version do you get when you try to download Firefox from Mozilla's site?

I think I just saw the problem. I'm still using OSX 10.5.8. The newest FF requires minimum of 10.6.

We'll have to get @David Sugar to work in some telephony, I guess.

If you have an Android phone, you can get the CSipSimple app:

https://code.google.com/p/csipsimple/

It supports ZRTP encryption of voice calls.

ahahahahahah

I'll tag that #nsfm (not safe for marriage -et similia-)

My words.

I strongly believe that this was not designed on makr.io, was it?

No.

I won't have zot until I figured out what to do with my Statusnet contacts...

Then Zot is definitely not for you.

Apologies for my cavalier exuberance. We had our first test today of Zot DNS and server independence and it bloody worked. For me, "figuring out what to do with StatusNet contacts" is the same as dealing with MySpace contacts in 2006. The world moved on and MySpace didn't.

No apologies needed, congrats! I'll move to red some time, but just not yet. I'm still a bit confused about to what extent the red network is federated (among its own kind.)

Red federation with other Red sites is much better than any other platform I've ever used - including Friendica.

Edit to add - [insert usual pre-alpha developer preview disclaimer here]

(As an indication, last night, posts were appearing in the wrong order in live updates because my system clock was wrong - by six seconds. In Friendica, that only happens if your clock is a few minutes out, even on my test server with just six contacts. In both cases, they get put in the right order on the next live update).

Edit again - it occurs to me it might not be obvious why that's a good thing. What I'm saying is contact for contact, Red federates an order of magnitude faster than Friendica.

Well I am still fighting with red federation. But that is most probably, because I am using a startssl certificate. Many linux distributions don't have this provider in the ca folder. Result is that my installation friendicared.de cannot federate with most other servers It does work mostly with my other installation red.dergrisch.de. I don't know if there is any other solution but to change the certificate one day.

All my sites use StartSSL without issue.

Strange. I added a lot of your channels, but it seems like they are not active. (Lock symbol is open) Or you are blocking me 1

If the lock symbol is open, you're not authenticated. You should be authenticated even if you were blocked.

I have no record of any introductions from you anywhere (though you've been there for a while, they could have come before the notifications worked properly) - I do have abook and hubloc entries for you.

The only thing I can see is that your xchan_url is https and your xchan_connurl http

You didn't install over http and then try changing to SSL later, did you?

Oh, and

Many linux distributions don't have this provider in the ca folder

doesn't matter. We don't rely on the distro's CA bundles - we use the one from Mozilla, which is packaged in library/cacert.pem

You didn't install over http and then try changing to SSL later, did you?

Hmm, not sure. The client has been around for a while. Http and https is in the same directory. Normally this has SSL from the beginning (though may be self signed at the beginning).It is a vhost installation (plesk).I made fresh db install several weeks ago, during this installtion I got an SSL-check error which could only fix by adding the CA certificate in my distro package, even though I can see the cacert.pem file in my library folder.

I hate to do this but...

@tony baldwin might be the only person who can help here.

He's the only person who got failed check during the install using StartSSL, and managed to get it working anyway. Not sure if he knows what he did himself though...

On the other hand, location independence is working - you could always import your channel somewhere else and post from there until you get it worked out.

By the way. It seems to work the other way. I have a user on friendicared.net and I can connect to my user on friendicared.de and I am authenticated, but not the other way round.

What failed during my installation was mod_rewrite (or, the test for mod_rewrite, which was weird, because rewrite was on and working).

I've installed twice now, successfully, but by doing it manually. Writing the .htconfig.php by hand (well, copying the sample and editing the DB connection details and stuff, importing the DB structure, etc.), thus bypassing the gui install.

btw, Mike, is that a younger you on that pic?

Mike, is that a younger you on that pic?

No.

Here's a photo of a younger Mike:

or, no, wait...here's a good one:

Here's a more recent photo of Mike, all plugged in an hacking on zot:

Here's what happened when Mike was fixing bugs I created (we got him repaired, clearly)

Funny... I always had zot, we just called it other things.

Lesseee. Here's 1981 or thereabouts.



This one would've been around 1989



That's all you get from me; though there are a few from the 60s and 70s floating around in the Facebook archives of friends - good luck finding them.
