A note to all of my friends or those who would friend me

Could you also please friend omnifarious' OpenID account [omnifarious.org] by clicking here: and put that user (who is also me) in all the same groups you put me. If LJ ever lets you use your OpenID identity to log into an existing journal, this may be moot. but I'm not counting on that feature ever happening.

As an aside, if you click on the icon in omnifarious' OpenID account [omnifarious.org], it takes you someplace different than clicking on the hopper [omnifarious.org] does. The takes you to the LJ user info page, and the hopper [omnifarious.org] part takes you to the homepage for the ID.

I've been reading the wrong journal the whole time. I was looking for angstyteen333. I must have taken a wrong turn...

In case you meant to friend my OpenID account and it didn't happen somehow, here's an easy way to do it, just click this:

Think of it as if I'm shutting down one account and starting another. Except I'm not exactly shutting this one down yet. I may someday, I just would like people to friend my new account so that if I do switch it won't be in the least traumatic.

it was a long time ago at queen of cups.

the premise of the game was that you had only so many planets etc. with resources and were competing with 3 other "people" to use them to develop technologies and such. i remember but cannot reproduce the style it was in, but i remember i wanted a go but it was YOUR laptop.

i didnt own a computer back then.

I'm guessing it was 'Spaceward Ho!'. Though it could've been Masters of Orion (1 or 2) or Pax Imperia.

That wasn't actually my laptop. It was my workplace's laptop.

Hi Eric,

I just read your response in
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/10/26/1622205
and was impressed by your striking to the heart of the matter (and by your end quote) so I followed the links you provided. I perceived a large degree of philosophical overlap in your spiel and in your LiveJournal interests.

I very rarely friend people I haven't met in person or through other friends. Fortunately, I deviate from one or another of my regular practices fairly often!

Referer logs. LJ didn't leak anything.

I don't even know who you're talking about that I despise. I defriended you because I don't know you too well...nothing personal at all.

Concerning the spamming

(Link)
Finally got a response from LJ abuse about those spam journals. They won't do anything, because the spam is restricted to the LJs concerned. Le sigh.

Imagine finding you here!

I realized you're a friend of Eleanore's. I'm Andrea. You gave me your card at Wayward, and I lost it. So, hello! Good to find you.

Hey, hi there! :-) Nice to make contact with you. :-)

All the information on my card can be found at the end of this link, except the email address is hopper@ not eric-jobs@.

Are you having fun today? :-)

I have no idea how I've managed not to notice that you'd added me, LJ must not have sent me any notification whatsoever. Since I very rarely post publicly, I think I'll just add you back. That way I might succeed in reading some of your entries too! : P

Of course, if you think it was a mistake or can't remember why you added me or if I've misunderstood you, feel free to correct me. (What I know about you is, um, that you moderate a couple of poly communities and that you seem to be a sensible person, which is definitely good enough for me so far!)

I friended you because you seemed intelligent with worthwhile things to say, I have an interest in Finland for obscure reasons (and not so obscure, it's the origin of Linux after all) and I think you're pretty. :-)

I try to be a sensible person, though I do not always succeed. :-)

Dude, I'm never going to Dreamwidth, so if you won't let me comment on LJ then I guess I just can't comment. *sigh* I have no idea what Open ID is, nor any interest in learning. This is unwieldy and confusing. Why can't I just keep reading and using this journal? I don't want multiple Omnifariouses on my list.

Well, I'm moving over to Dreamwidth. They promise they will never have advertising, and I no longer have any trust for LJ because of the way they've been working with various corporate interests. I've been looking for a viable way to move off of LJ for a long time, as is evidenced by this post here.

And wandering all over the web to see what anybody had to say about something I wrote is annoying and time consuming, especially when I'm working fairly hard to make sure that I only write things in one or two places.

OpenID is relatively trivial to use. Mostly it's just a way for your LJ account to be recognized over on Dreamwidth. When you comment, there is a little box where you can enter your OpenID (which in your case is http://klicrai.livejournal.com/). Then it will send you to LJ, which will ask you if it's OK that Dreamwidth knows who you are. When you answer that question (which you only have to answer once) you'll be sent back to Dreamwidth and your comment will be posted.

The second time it will just skip the middle step and it'll just work.

If it will make you happier, I'll just tell Dreamwidth to stop cross-posting into my journal, but then you'll never see anything I write. :-)
