Cute stunt, but that's all it is. Once you reach a height where terminal velocity can be achieved, going any higher doesn't change anything. With an egg, terminal velocity can be achieved from a height of probably less than 50ft. Taking it up to the edge of space is just glitter for the cameras.

When I started using #Linux I used #Slackware. This was probably in the middle of 1999.

At the time me and my freinds were very active on #IRC and had a bot in our channel.

The first bot was first simple TCL script but later we used #eggdrop.

I remember that in order to install eggdrop on Slackware I had to manually compile/install all the dependencies in the right order.
It was about 15 of them, so I wrote myself a textfile where I listed every dependency and in which order it should be installed.

When I some years later found and tried #Debian I was like - "What, you type in one command and it just installs everything for you?"

Those were the times ☺️

You're a geek and you spend all your time in your shell but still want to know how it is outside ?
#graph.no still exists :

echo "oslo" | ncat -4 graph.no 79

I have some #IRC implementation for #eggdrop as well if needed 😇

Just found out that the amazing good old #eggdrop is still under active development! This makes me really happy and makes my week start off with a very positive feeling in my heart =D
