        hmm, BB search may still be down, and I've forgotten whether redis needs a screen
      • 2016-02-24 05558, 2016

      • CatQuest
        I saw this as an add thingy once I think it was for the "meny" supermarket
      • 2016-02-24 05515, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        ruaok mentioned that running things in screens isn't considered good practice for production :P
      • 2016-02-24 05521, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        and redis should work as a service
      • 2016-02-24 05525, 2016

      • CatQuest
        if I come across any good ones i 'll tell you :D
      • 2016-02-24 05527, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        Leo_Verto: yup, that's still good
      • 2016-02-24 05544, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        I know it isn't, but it's quick
      • 2016-02-24 05555, 2016

      • CatQuest
        alastairp: or did you mean the asterix ones specifically?
      • 2016-02-24 05556, 2016

      • CatQuest
        :D
      • 2016-02-24 05507, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        And doesn't require someone with root access
      • 2016-02-24 05511, 2016

      • alastairp
        oh yes, only asterix :)
      • 2016-02-24 05529, 2016

      • CatQuest
        aha!
      • 2016-02-24 05555, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        I'm proud to say I own all Asterix comics :P
      • 2016-02-24 05545, 2016

      • CatQuest
        well the bard guy is called Trubadurix and the old guy is called "Senilix"
      • 2016-02-24 05546, 2016

      • darwin
        I own most in german lol
      • 2016-02-24 05550, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        about 50% of my childhood :D
      • 2016-02-24 05553, 2016

      • CatQuest
        i don't own all of thme, but i'm working on it
      • 2016-02-24 05531, 2016

      • CatQuest
        there is also a (norwegian) mb user named "senilix" :D
      • 2016-02-24 05533, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        and reading some of them again recently, I got the political undertone
      • 2016-02-24 05536, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        I used to have about 20
      • 2016-02-24 05544, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        CatQuest, that'd be Methusalix
      • 2016-02-24 05508, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        I only know the German names
      • 2016-02-24 05554, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        In English he's Getafix the druid
      • 2016-02-24 05520, 2016

      • reosarevok
        So what you're saying is that BB needs to store characters and have locale aliases for them?

      • Leo_Verto
        Miraculix is the druid's german name
      • 2016-02-24 05548, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        Lingo___, <3 gems like that
      • 2016-02-24 05549, 2016

      • reosarevok
        Panoramix in Spanish
      • 2016-02-24 05513, 2016

      • reosarevok
        Getafix would be too similar to Madrid's neighbourhood of Getafe and nobody would take it "seriously"
      • 2016-02-24 05533, 2016

      • reosarevok
        Panoramix doesn't work in the same joke way as Getafix does though
      • 2016-02-24 05547, 2016

      • CatQuest
        the wizard guy is "Miraculix" and the leader of the gauls (the guy being carried on the sheild) is "Majestetix"
      • 2016-02-24 05510, 2016

      • CatQuest
        [21:46] <reosarevok> So what you're saying is that BB needs to store characters and have locale aliases for them?
      • 2016-02-24 05510, 2016

      • CatQuest
        JA!
      • 2016-02-24 05524, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        Oh, storing characters :P
      • 2016-02-24 05546, 2016

      • reosarevok
        Can I link the Steve Jobs biography to a character with a Spanish alias of Esteban Trabajos?
      • 2016-02-24 05547, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        We've had that debate a while ago, characters aren't metadata but would be extremely useful to store
      • 2016-02-24 05555, 2016

      • reosarevok
        :p
      • 2016-02-24 05535, 2016

      • reosarevok
        I think it's reasonable to ignore characters until you have the main features for the site in place, but they'd be useful later on probably, yes
      • 2016-02-24 05544, 2016

      • CatQuest agrees
      • 2016-02-24 05520, 2016

      • Lingo___
        is your discussion in any way related to book brainz?
      • 2016-02-24 05548, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        it is
      • 2016-02-24 05533, 2016

      • Lingo___
        does book brainz cover characters?
      • 2016-02-24 05541, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        Not yet, but we could do that in the future
      • 2016-02-24 05549, 2016

      • Lingo___
        thats cool
      • 2016-02-24 05507, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        that's one of the things most other online libraries do not store
      • 2016-02-24 05512, 2016

      • ruaok
        so, if I were to reboot sakura now, would boobrainz come back up?
      • 2016-02-24 05522, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        nope
      • 2016-02-24 05529, 2016

      • Lingo___
        btw I got 'Internal Server Error' at login
      • 2016-02-24 05550, 2016

      • ruaok
        Leo_Verto: you have plans to fix this, right?
      • 2016-02-24 05510, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        yep, I'm working on a initscript for bb-site right now
      • 2016-02-24 05519, 2016

      • ruaok
        sweet
      • 2016-02-24 05505, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        LordSputnik, ping, are you sure BB is fully up yet?
      • 2016-02-24 05516, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        I can't login either
      • 2016-02-24 05528, 2016

        I just want to know what Lingo wanted to use the logo for...
      • 2016-02-24 05541, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        Logo licensing is an interesting thing
      • 2016-02-24 05558, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        that seems like something you'd want to trademark
      • 2016-02-24 05518, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        kinda like the way Mozilla does it
      • 2016-02-24 05556, 2016

      • reosarevok
        Freso: well, is an interesting question to answer in any case, see our discourse logo modifications and all
      • 2016-02-24 05526, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        LordSputnik, what's the absolute path for the bb repo clones on sakura?
      • 2016-02-24 05552, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        Leo_Verto: /home/bookbrainz afaik

      • 2016-02-24 05511, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        Leo_Verto: you might also want to run a gulp build on startup
      • 2016-02-24 05554, 2016

      • Leo_Verto
        wouldn't want to test my initscripts on production :P
      • 2016-02-24 05518, 2016

      • ruaok
        ah, your question was about trademarks.
      • 2016-02-24 05525, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        Leo_Verto: you could change rika to mirror it

      • 2016-02-24 05551, 2016

      • LordSputnik
        then we can test the init scripts there too
      • 2016-02-24 05552, 2016

      • ruaok
        the problem is this: registering and maintaining a trademark is expensive.
      • 2016-02-24 05559, 2016

      • ruaok
        let alone 8 or so.

      • Leo_Verto
        LordSputnik, sounds like a good idea, you wouldn't mind adding my new SSH key, would you? :P

      • chirlu`
        Hill and mound sound too “soft” to me. Rather mud than rock. But that may be just me.
      • 2016-02-24 05506, 2016

      • chrisskye
        this is true. it isn’t simple, fast or cheap to protect the logos
      • 2016-02-24 05512, 2016

      • Freso
        ruaok: Yep. Just wanted to know if it'd crossed your mind(s). :)

      • 2016-02-24 05536, 2016

        Each name. Each logo would be independently registered.
      • 2016-02-24 05555, 2016

      • chrisskye
        And, you need to decide where to do it...California + USA + global?

        It’s just that protecting something isn’t easy. You want to forbid others from using what? How similar? What industry? Colours? Shapes?

      • ruaok
        we're a non profit with limited means. if someone registers our trademarks, that is a dick move.

        Although...you could probably contest someone making use of the name, without registering...because it has been in use and is known
      • 2016-02-24 05514, 2016

      • chrisskye
        yeah...fighting infringement with lawyers...we wouldn’t have means for that!

      • chrisskye
        A different issue...might be patents...of anything you do as makers
