Where the rest of the gang at?

Actually "gang" has quite a negative connotation most of the time in British English. Usually suggests you're up to no good.

True. I don't want to be in a gang

We can be peons or plebs to the purple deity.

The purple peons' prose maybe.

I like pleb better

We should have our own linux distro called the purple plebian

RackNerd-only? I wanted to use it locally though

What is local though? I only work from rack nerd vps now. I disposed off my pc

I was too busy these days so what happening fellas

Rat takeover/

Woah there. Participation. We'd never dream of taking over. And if we did, we would be so obvious about it.

Feel free to, btw.

Even for the TV?

For anything. As I have said earlier and will say again, we, like any other human being love good activity on the thread, regardless of the prize pool intentions. BTW, even if you do get the TV, how you gonna get it to UK? Customs duties not so high there?

Probably hide it in my rucksack and hope customs don't notice the big bulge. A sweater would be much more convenient, ngl.

BTW, you do understand that the sweater is not a part of the main engagement-based prize pool, right?

It should be because it's the best prize. Although the backpacks also look nice, but less good for keeping warm with.

No, seriously, you do know that right? I am asking you cause I believe youa re new to the thread. I mgiht be wrong. Don't wanna explain everything to you, cause then you are gonna accuse me of psy-op and maybe patronising.
But, seriously, if you have any genuine doubts about the giveaways here, any one of us would be happy to clear it.

Well, yeah I read the first post. But it also says there are 5x sweaters for engagement, so I'm being engaged.

Yah, hoping you are not trolling, they are not based on your comment numbers. They are random. For example, check Dustin's first comment on the thread, where he has given away VPS to first 10 people who commented with a specific keyword. Sweaters will be given away in that fashion. Atleast, that's how it has been on these threads. But, it's the RackNerd thread, anything can happen. Will pay to stay active.

Oh what? Man that sucks. Actually, I didn't know that. Surely the bots will always win then.

The Chinese scalpers have bots that just alert them whenever purple d posts something.

Dustin has been coming up with new ways to beat them actually when it comes to these giveaways. He might randomly just ask you to go to racknerd's youtube channel and get the link to the latest video posted or maybe copy past the racknerd logo from the official website. He mixes it up from time to time to let the real humans (and from now on, rats) have better chances.

yeah, that probably won't work for me. It took me a week to figure out that gleam was some kind of competition. I've still not entered it though because you seem to have to give loads of personal details away to some other company.

I see. How about this. If there's a sweater GA, I can DM you, if I do see it. Or else, there are more active members here who would be okay with DMing you incase a GA does happen.

That sounds like cheating. If the purple deity doesn't want to spread his love among his true believers (us few right here, right now) then so be it. It needs to be offered with love, not prised from his clutches. "God loves a cheerful giver" and all that nonsense.

I guess you don't wanna be helped at all then. You do know the, "God helps those who help themselves" and all that nonsense, right?

If it means you miss out on your prizes, I wouldn't want that. I want Purple D to want to give me the sweater.

If that's the case, you will have to work really hard. My offer stands though. If I win an RN sweater, it's yours.

Thanks again. But I think if you actually won the sweater you should keep it, because it'd be something very special.

We'll see. I'd personally want you to win it yourself as well, just so that you understand what the RackNerd spirit is all about.

MC-illiterate person here. You might have to explain this one

Looks like one person is trying to push the other off a cliff

Thanks, Ben. Now, I am confused. How does that signify solidarity?

We can all laugh over a shared joke. Let me start:

Why did the mexican push his wife off the cliff?

Why did he?

Tequila.

I don't get it

He was drunk from drinking too much Tequila and pushed his wife off "by accident".

MC-illiterate person here. You might have to explain this one

So I went on a meme GIF website and search "solidarity" and picked this one at random because it seemed computery.

I think they're doing an approximation of a fistbump

I think it would've helped if they punched or something

Yeah, the animation was unclear.

They should have upped the resolution on the render a bit. Too blocky.

Yeah hard to tell with those intense graphics

This was cutting edge stuff in the 2010s. Before that all we had was text mode and command lines.

Looks like a potato

There's a video somewhere of doom running on a potato powered computer.

How did they get my computer

yeah, that probably won't work for me. It took me a week to figure out that gleam was some kind of competition. I've still not entered it though because you seem to have to give loads of personal details away to some other company.

I see. How about this. If there's a sweater GA, I can DM you, if I do see it. Or else, there are more active members here who would be okay with DMing you incase a GA does happen.

That sounds like cheating. If the purple deity doesn't want to spread his love among his true believers (us few right here, right now) then so be it. It needs to be offered with love, not prised from his clutches. "God loves a cheerful giver" and all that nonsense.

I guess you don't wanna be helped at all then. You do know the, "God helps those who help themselves" and all that nonsense, right?

If it means you miss out on your prizes, I wouldn't want that. I want Purple D to want to give me the sweater.

If that's the case, you will have to work really hard. My offer stands though. If I win an RN sweater, it's yours.

Thanks again. But I think if you actually won the sweater you should keep it, because it'd be something very special.

We'll see. I'd personally want you to win it yourself as well, just so that you understand what the RackNerd spirit is all about.

MC-illiterate person here. You might have to explain this one

Looks like one person is trying to push the other off a cliff

Thanks, Ben. Now, I am confused. How does that signify solidarity?

We can all laugh over a shared joke. Let me start:

Why did the mexican push his wife off the cliff?

Why did he?

Tequila.

I don't get it

He was drunk from drinking too much Tequila and pushed his wife off "by accident".

Thx now I get it

Nope. You are still needed here.

False. You are just being nice

I wish I was. But, this time, you are the all-time hype man.

Ralf has taken the role

Stepping up but I can never fill his shoes, and I'm barely even a shadow of our glorious purple leader

Where the rest of the gang at?

Actually "gang" has quite a negative connotation most of the time in British English. Usually suggests you're up to no good.

True. I don't want to be in a gang

We can be peons or plebs to the purple deity.

The purple peons' prose maybe.

I like pleb better

We should have our own linux distro called the purple plebian

RackNerd-only? I wanted to use it locally though

What is local though? I only work from rack nerd vps now. I disposed off my pc

Do you have a purple access card for the purple dungeon?

Yep. Every message is something I can reply to. 9th place is within reach.

Yup. You get the idea. I am sensing it's not the sweater you are after, and that's a good thing.

Why not both

yeah, or that too.

You could say two

If I get more credits I can buy 2 sweaters and me and Sara won't have to fit into the same one.

Do they have sweaters in the shop?

Ye don't know

Obviously, a fork from debian

Rebranded alpine

If you create a fork of that call alpian first, we have a deal.

Deal

Deal. Chop chop, get at it.

It'll be ready soon

I was too busy these days so what happening fellas

Rat takeover/

Woah there. Participation. We'd never dream of taking over. And if we did, we would be so obvious about it.

Feel free to, btw.

Even for the TV?

For anything. As I have said earlier and will say again, we, like any other human being love good activity on the thread, regardless of the prize pool intentions. BTW, even if you do get the TV, how you gonna get it to UK? Customs duties not so high there?

Probably hide it in my rucksack and hope customs don't notice the big bulge. A sweater would be much more convenient, ngl.

BTW, you do understand that the sweater is not a part of the main engagement-based prize pool, right?

It should be because it's the best prize. Although the backpacks also look nice, but less good for keeping warm with.

No, seriously, you do know that right? I am asking you cause I believe youa re new to the thread. I mgiht be wrong. Don't wanna explain everything to you, cause then you are gonna accuse me of psy-op and maybe patronising.
But, seriously, if you have any genuine doubts about the giveaways here, any one of us would be happy to clear it.

Well, yeah I read the first post. But it also says there are 5x sweaters for engagement, so I'm being engaged.

Yah, hoping you are not trolling, they are not based on your comment numbers. They are random. For example, check Dustin's first comment on the thread, where he has given away VPS to first 10 people who commented with a specific keyword. Sweaters will be given away in that fashion. Atleast, that's how it has been on these threads. But, it's the RackNerd thread, anything can happen. Will pay to stay active.

Oh what? Man that sucks. Actually, I didn't know that. Surely the bots will always win then.

The Chinese scalpers have bots that just alert them whenever purple d posts something.

Dustin has been coming up with new ways to beat them actually when it comes to these giveaways. He might randomly just ask you to go to racknerd's youtube channel and get the link to the latest video posted or maybe copy past the racknerd logo from the official website. He mixes it up from time to time to let the real humans (and from now on, rats) have better chances.

MC-illiterate person here. You might have to explain this one

So I went on a meme GIF website and search "solidarity" and picked this one at random because it seemed computery.

I think they're doing an approximation of a fistbump

I think it would've helped if they punched or something

Yeah, the animation was unclear.

They should have upped the resolution on the render a bit. Too blocky.

Yeah hard to tell with those intense graphics

This was cutting edge stuff in the 2010s. Before that all we had was text mode and command lines.

Looks like a potato

There's a video somewhere of doom running on a potato powered computer.

How did they get my computer

It was hosted securely in the purple dungeon, so it should have been safe, right?
