obsethryl's lab

I came accross obsethryl's lab the other day. It's the website of Freenode's #labchat IRC channel where you can talk about GNU/Linux, software mediated automation, development on opensource platforms, automation, and anything concerning else cross-platform FOSS software.

Gazette and CTV interview!

Edit: Turns out this is probably not true... I think people had misinterpreted what ATI had said.
