      -I think I heard the wind blowing...

Oh wait, that's just the 404 2600 scene...

You know, it's pathetic how bad this has gotten. Atlanta was *THE* place for a huge part of the hacker community in the late 80s and into the mid 90s. I know a lot of us grew up and got our CCIEs and MCSEs or our CISSSP or whatever alphabet soup certification you want to masturbate to, but seriously-- can we not try to get this breathing a little bit better in the next coming year?

Also, can we try to move past the script kiddie mentality once and for all??

Please?

Maybe someone can wake up HugMe sometime and ask him to get this breathing a bit.. if not, I'll volunteer.

LAN Party
      -*RTFWS(Website)*

Eheh... Nevermind about that mailing list question



lowercase
Hello
      -Ice Age Alliance will be running a LAN party on the first of November in the southern poly tech student center. We mostly do gaming but if any of you wanna come and geek out there are a few technogoons that hang around every month. You can e-mail me at exiler41@sdf.lonestar.org if you want more info

by the way, is there mailing list or something? I haven't been able to go to any meetings 'cos Lennox is a bit to far from Marietta (a 30 minute drive is hard to convince your parents about when you're still a teen ;)) but some of the places I've seen mentioned here are alot closer and I'd like to pop in if you guys have em there.

IRC
      -Well sadly there is no 404 2600 irc channel that I am aware of. We still are hanging out with the rest of those losers in irc.undernet.org#se2600


I don't know if that's the answer your looking for, but it's the only one I have

404 stuff
      -I read all the past messages about IRC and such, and it made me think - where do the 404-2600'ers chat anymore?

I'm an admin on the small-ish IRC network, ZiRC (www.zirc.org), and I don't frequently visit other networks. However, if I know where everyone is at, I'll certainly make it a point to stop on by and have a chat. shameless plug> And if you all want to move to ZiRC, let me know and I'll make moving easy for you! /shameless plug>

Thank God!
      -Just some general fyi stuff :
Meetings are held at Lenox food court (next to the windows
at south end of food court)...according to 2600 mag. meetings are to start around 6pm....but due to atlanta traffic and
peoples work schedules, most show up around 7pm. So wait around if you are actually interested in attending the meeting. Mall security usually chases us out around 9-ish pm,
so yes, we do usually end up going over to the Caribou Coffee shop on P'tree street near the Piedmont Rd. intersection (we have been known to stay there till 3am sometimes)(sometimes due to a crowded Caribou, we go over to the Joe Mugs News Stand next door...LOOK for us)

Come to the meetings, make friends, find others with common interests, network, etc.....for those that want to do smaller offshoot meetings, this is a way to make it happen.

Atlanta scene is dead ? I don't think so ! You get out of the community what you put into it ! If you contribute, than you just may be recognized instead of being ignored ! Hackers also tend to be a bit standoff-ish/paranoid in these times, Give us a chance to get to know you prior to you making judgements that are unfounded ! Show up for meetings
and TALK, contribute...if you don't meet people and think the scene is lame, you have only yourself to blame !

are there any meetings in marietta
      -Hi,

for the past three months, I've *tried* to attend the Atlanta monthly meetings. I have looked in the Lenox Mall Food Court, but have only seen two individuals with the same agenda. They told me that they usually move to Caribou Coffee just South of the mall.

Where will the August 1st meeting be held?

BTW - I live in the Perimeter Mall/Dunwoody area. Is anyone else interested in creating a sub-group/meeting in the Perimeter Mall area?

ThanX

Expect a much more widespread disablement of sharing sites such as KAZAA and even some PGP re-mailers. Just an alert for everyone to know.

      -Hi Georgia 2600!

It's almost time to write DMCA comments to the LOC!

For those interested in sending the Library of Congress written comments
about prohibition against circumvention of technical measures...(1201) HERE IS OUR CHANCE!

Wouldn't it be great if they received THOUSANDS of comments...:)

There is more information at www.electroniclaw.org/dmca
(previously dmcasucks.org)

Written comments submissions begin Nov. 19 and are due to the LOC by December 18!

If you need anything - assistance in writing, submission with desire for anonymity, etc. - please let me know

P.S. It was really great to see everyone rally for the Honk for Free Speech and the Dmitry thing, now, let's put in writing what we think about that DMCA!

Meetings
      -I recently when to Town Center Mall in Marietta this weekend.
I was amazed with the stupidity from the people that setup the network
at Rich's. They have some kind of wireless routers screwed up on the cieling.
The crazy (not just being a public hub) is that the MAC address and the
ip address, including the gateway is all labled on the box itself. Same thing
with the box in the dressing room at LENOX at the top floor of Macy's.
Any ideas come to mind.....think about.

Hey, someone picked this site up
      -I wrote this in July of last year. The old page was horribly outdated, and didn't work in several of my browsers, so I decided to change it. After I did, I was told that the reason it was outdated was because of the atl2600.org page had taken the 404 web site over. I didn't know anything about it, until after I had changed the code.

BTW, all of the original html/php is still there. If you want, I can send it to you

South GA meeting
      -Well the basic idea of how to do it can be found at the 2600 site. First off you want to check out www.2600.org/meetings/startup.html If you know of several people who are going to be interested then you just need to post it to the site and wait for other people to show up. Otherwise you will need to try and recruit. I dont know about Savanah, but you probably could get some people from the southside of atlanta to attend a meeting in macon.


alex
gatech
      -Me and some friends are looking to start a 2600 chapter somewhere in the area of Macon or Savannah. To start off with, we wanna go to several of the 404 meetings, because most of us have never been. We cannot, however, make the 8 hour round-trip every week, and rather than miss out completly, we wanna get something of our own going. Who would I need to talk to?

      -ya im down w/ setting up a meeting in the Norcross/Permimeter area
and also why not go for more meetings throughout the month..
not just the first fri of every month.



MaxieZ
voting failure
      -I suggest keeping Lenox Mall as the !st Friday meeting spot, but splitting out to sepearte meetings at other times of the month. Meeting once a month is limiting, but meeting several times at one spot is "over camping" the area.

I live near downtown Decatur (Yo East side!), and I do not mind Lenox on a Friday. I make plans for the ride, or I take MARTA. Not a problem.

However, I wonder why there are not a bunch of geeks from the downtown universities hooking up on a regular basis. Shouldn't there be a joint GA-GATech gathering downtown once per month?

And since there was such strong support for a Norcross/Perimeter Mall meeting last year, why not organize one?

And I myself want to attend some of the 678! Dinners, since geeks require more than sober, boasting interaction. We need some "down time" as well.

So I guess I am saying, let's leave the 1st Friday meeting as-is, and coordinate our own smaller meetings at other times.


Suggestions:

Innovox meet (I know nothing about it)

university/downtown meet on the 3rd Thursday or Friday?

Decatur meet gazebo downtown, 3rd or 4th Sunday afternoon? (warm weather only, then perhaps shift to Dekalb Farmer's MArket)

Norcross meet Perimeter Mall, 4th or 3rd Sunday?



I'm going to do my part to start a Decatur meeting on a Sunday afternoon. Will post as I get more details.

Multiple Votes..
      -I was meerly helping you test your script.. :) Quality Assurance is very important in this highly competitive new economy...

Seriously though, couldn't resist the temptation and, it gave me a chance to play with threading.. (Why do you think you found the file locking problem?) Now, the next bug you have is, your file locking is a bad way to do it. It took tuning of the threads to keep fome stepping on the lock on your end.. If you used postgres or mysql, there'd be no need (and a much higher percentage of the votes cast would have shown up). As it is there is a cronological limit to the number of votes cast (i.e. more than X votes in X seconds will fail X percent of the time)

      -You know.. I never thought I'd say this but, I'm with James.. Innovox sounds like the place.

A few years ago I was in san deigo for a few weeks and hit a meeting out there.. I came back really jelious as, not only did they have a really cool meeting with lots of bright, friendly people, they had connectivity and, lot's of it.. Now of course, in 99, this wasn't 802.11 but, it was a start.

Now that it's here, and the possibility exists, I really think this is the way. 802.11 cards are mega cheap compared to what they used to be.

I haven't yet been to innovox, I only heard of it about a week ago but, now that I know it's here I will definately be there.. meetings or no.

---

What I don't like, is the idea of having the meeting at the mellow mushroom.. It's just not the right place. I also think the way this has been handled is pretty lame, as I heard the "vote" was basicly a bunch of people ignoring Rockit as, well.. as people tend to do...

I dunno, maybe I'm just hyper sensitive but, has anyone noticed Rockit's paranoid obsession with "the feds"? I mean, gone are the days of illicit projects in dark rooms and, even if you are participating in illegal activity in your own life, 2600 meetings are by standard not to be used for any such illegal activity. Added to which, personally, I could care less if the "feds" know I'm a geek... Is being a geek a crime?

Html links
      -I would agree, but I really didnt mean this site nor
this message board to be used to that extent. In fact
Hugme requested I do a scrawl wall instead. I havent seen
a site with a scrawl wall since 95. Anyways I originally
meant this section to be a place to post about the members
of the 404 group, but then I didn't see why anyone shouldnt
be able to post about anything at all. and thats whats here
:)



phanatikus
wrong link
      -Well I wanted to strip all html from a post, but I wanted
to let everyone be able to post a url. If you type a url
it should turn it into a link

404.se2600.org

but then again what do I know.....

well the html in the post are screwed. Here the correct link.

I have to admit its getting better
      -website is good and proves that someone can do cgi;) However, for this type of site I highly recommend phpWeblog.

With that said, I plan to attend the meeting one day. Keep up the good work.
