[01:46:36] <chromas> First he accepts an OANN story and now FOX News?!
[01:46:37] <chromas> :D
[01:47:57] <Bytram> for all those who claim FOXn News *is* a news source, thought I'd cause some cognitive dissonance =)
[01:48:29] <chromas> To be fair, the website is better than the TV channel
[01:48:58] <chromas> Also, we've run Buzzfeed News stuff before and it's basically the same thing
[02:01:52] <Bytram> kinda, but from a different perspective, IIRC
[02:02:21] * Bytram cold be confusing them with tech crunch, though
[02:02:37] <Bytram> anyway, time for some shuteye
[02:02:45] <chromas> Yes. Buzzfeed is American left while Fox is American Left
[02:02:50] <chromas> s/Left/Right/2
[02:03:07] <Bytram> how can that be right? ;)
[02:03:15] <Bytram> this time for sure

[02:04:16] <Bytram> ain't nothing good gonna come of that! =)

[15:15:52] <Bytram> how are you today?
[15:16:21] * Bytram had about 2 lbs of baked potatoes last night. Yum! Was thinking of you.

[15:22:19] <AzumaHazuki> big ol sweet potato in the oven now
[15:22:28] <AzumaHazuki> should be done in ~25-30m i hope
[15:22:49] <AzumaHazuki> also, jesus, this pandemic is really making people show what they truly are inside isn't it?
[15:23:19] <Bytram> I've had sweet potatoes before, but was never really enamored of them.

[15:53:24] <Bytram> April 22 every year.
[15:54:25] <Bytram> Numerous communities celebrate Earth Day Week, an entire week of activities focused on the environmental issues that the world faces.
[18:32:52] <chromas> Soon we will have a whole year to celebrate the month week day of the hour.
[18:59:32] <Bytram> is too nice a day, today, and nasty weather due on the 'morrow. laters.
[19:02:15] <Bytram> BTW, have 85% completed some scripts to (1) scrape the submission hold queue, (2) Extract subid for each submission, (3) sort subids in descending numerical order, (4) Ensure I have a download of each sub, and (5) scrape the story part from the HTML (still have some extras to remove). Once #5 is complete, I should be able to catenate all the parts together and have a chronologically organized merge =)
[19:02:43] <Bytram> Okay, there *is* the matter of getting all the "Original Submission"s collated, too.
[19:02:54] <Bytram> anyway, that'll have to wait.
[19:02:59] <Bytram> afk, back in a while.
[19:03:25] <chromas> Your script can just generate its own Original Subs block
[21:57:01] <Bytram> chromas: Yes, it will... but I think I still need to capture the link provided. Or, maybe, I can reconstruct if from the subid? Not sure.
[21:58:18] <Bytram> btw, just came upon a comment thread wrt: this story we ran https://soylentnews.org which had an "Original Submission" of https://soylentnews.org
[21:58:20] <systemd> ^ 03A Jaw-Dropping Demo in Only 256 Bytes - SoylentNews

[21:58:40] <Bytram> (1) Yep, I can reconstruct original submission from just the subid =)
[22:00:05] <Bytram> (2) Looks like upstart dropped some HTML: 2<sup>8</sup> turned into "28" in the context of " Not only are more effects put into 28 bytes than we thought possible,"
[22:00:35] <Bytram> takyon: fixed the story and then I went looking to see why I let it out into the story.
[22:00:39] <Bytram> teamwork++
[22:00:39] <Bender> karma - teamwork: 234
[22:00:42] <Bytram> ;)
[22:01:37] <Bytram> Oh, looks like I only did an =submit on it. Fnord666, janrinok, and takyon took it from there.
[22:02:30] <Bytram> Anyway, the story is now correct on our site, but you might check your extraction code to see how it deals with <sup> (and with <sub>, too).

[22:20:25] <systemd> ^ 03Brad Pitt plays Dr. Anthony Fauci on SNL, just as the doctor requested ( https://www.cnet.com )
[22:22:28] <chromas> Shouldn't it be "just as the doctor ordered"?
[22:22:46] <Bytram> should be!
[22:23:00] <chromas> or s/as/what/
[22:23:33] <Bytram> Well, in truth, it was only an acknowledgment that he would not mind if it happened.
[22:24:12] <chromas> Can't just go by what he said; we have to hype it up a bit
[22:24:13] <Bytram> I just closed that tab, but there was a link to a CNN story about it, if you really want to check.
