aleph No, your greatest accomplishment is meeting a dashing young rogue I'd say. Everything else comes up rather short in comparison.No, your greatest accomplishment is meeting a dashing young rogue I'd say. Everything else comes up rather short in comparison.

So if you'd be up to try it we'd just need to find more players, I know one off hand I could tap.

But from running it myself as long as your group understands the basics of public key crypto and the like. It can very fun to actually run. Plus since it's an rpg, you can mix and match rules as you wish.
Incidentally if you are willing to try, as my group is currently on an indefinite hiatus, I'd love to get another group going on it.

So since we no doubt have many rpg gamers amongst us, I thought I'd start a weekly or bi monthly thread to post about looking for groups, looking for members and the like. So if you want to, why not come and make a post.
I myself happen to be looking for people who'd be up to play a spot of Shadowrun or preferably Cryptomancer.

aleph Well yes but given that it's an emergent property contained in the brain chances are, you move the brain you move the consciousness. For now.Well yes but given that it's an emergent property contained in the brain chances are, you move the brain you move the consciousness. For now.

We haven't done a successful brain transplant yet more due to lack of knowledge about the brain and lack of fine grained surgical needs with all the small nerves and capillaries, etc.

aleph I tried learning Elixir/Erlang ages ago, honestly it was the syntax that put me off. Found it more weird then other functional languages.I tried learning Elixir/Erlang ages ago, honestly it was the syntax that put me off. Found it more weird then other functional languages.

Well among other projects, I'm finishing up some utilities to convert mp3 phone calls to text, format them and then archive them in an apache solr instance. Along with that I'm writing a simple web page with flask and jinja to take search queries and output paginated results from solr to have a minimal personal search engine finally. Aside from that I'm finishing up a youtube meta data archival utility as part of a archival project with the archive team. And finally I'm adding some finishing touches on my assembler and my init system. So got a bit of a full weekend. :)
