[05:03:36] * Bytram yawns
[05:03:36] * MrPlow flips a Skittle into Bytram's gaping mouth
[05:36:49] <Fnord666> Evening Bytram
[05:51:05] <chromas> =g'day Fnord666
[05:51:05] * systemd democratically culturally appropriates a 40 of Cow Tools from Fnord666
[05:51:27] <Fnord666> =g'day chromas
[05:51:28] * systemd irrefutably chucks a 30-clip magazine of carrot sticks at chromas
[05:52:21] <chromas> ooh, carrots (/me sets accent to one where the "rr" becomes a "d" phoneme)
[05:53:09] <Fnord666> :)
[05:53:35] <chromas> I forgot what cow tools was and looked it up
[05:53:42] <chromas> Sounds like a band name though
[05:54:17] <Fnord666> =g cow tools
[05:54:18] <systemd> https://en.wikipedia.org - Cow Tools - Wikipedia
[05:54:26] <Fnord666> And yes, it does sound like a band name
[05:54:50] <chromas> or maybe a software package. like protools but with more cowbell
[05:55:48] <Fnord666> Are the developers based in Jersey?
[05:56:16] <chromas> shore!
[06:01:19] <Fnord666> Have several sites changed their layouts? I noticed that systems is dropping several leading paragraphs on some sites.
[06:01:56] <chromas> Pr. Dastardsobably
[06:02:01] <chromas> oh nice edit there
[06:02:14] <chromas> Probably. Dastards
[06:02:38] <Fnord666> =)
[06:03:09] <Fnord666> For example https://soylentnews.org
[06:03:11] <systemd> ^ 03Twitter Sues Texas Attorney General Over Investigation Into Content Moderation Practices: SoylentNews Submission
[06:03:20] <chromas> I've come across some pretty nice article extractors but they either don't include links and stuff or they're too complimicated for me to figure out how they work
[06:03:24] <Fnord666> An unlikely site for a story we would use, but still
[06:03:52] <Fnord666> The current one is home grown, correct?
[06:04:30] <chromas> aye
[06:04:34] <Fnord666> I wonder what ever happened to Arthur and the article feed he generated?
[06:04:39] <Bytram> Fnord666: good morning
[06:04:49] <Fnord666> Good morning Bytram
[06:05:03] <chromas> huh, yeah the stuff the bot collected is all in one div, while the earlier paragraphs are in their own section for some reason
[06:05:18] <Fnord666> Ok that's weird
[06:05:41] <chromas> The feed you guys were using was an instance of arthur tied into the exec bot, which isn't running anymore
[06:05:52] <chromas> I should fire 'im up I s'pose
[06:06:20] <chromas> crutchy's long gone and cmn32480 relocated the box he was running it on or something
[06:07:45] <chromas> wouldn't take much to just use arthur's scraper in systemd, too
[06:08:47] <Fnord666> Or at least offer an option to choose which scraper to use when submitting a story via irc
[06:10:31] <Fnord666> Which reminds me that I tried to submit a story via the tools on your site, but when I tried to actually do the submission I got an error saying that the resource is no longer available.
[06:11:05] <chromas> weird. how long was it open?
[06:11:38] <chromas> oh and if you want to submit from the page you need a reskey, which you can either paste into the edit field at the bottm, or check the box on the link-pasting page
[06:14:21] <Fnord666> Maybe that was what I was doing wrong.
[06:14:37] <Fnord666> I'm trying to find the link to the tool. Do you have it handy?
[06:14:51] <chromas> https://zeroindex.org
[06:14:52] <systemd> ^ 03Soysub
[06:15:34] <Fnord666> I have so many things bookmarked that I can't find anything.
[06:15:38] <Fnord666> Thank you
[06:15:50] <chromas> if you click the Soy Preview button it should take you to the submission form on SN with it filled out, and I think it should generated a reskey then if there isn't one. I haven't really tested it though
[06:16:01] <chromas> You're welcome. Hopefully it's helpfuls
[06:17:51] <Fnord666> That is when I get "This resource is no longer valid. Please return to the beginning and try again." Even though I have a reskey
[06:18:44] <chromas> fpos
[06:19:05] <chromas> oh yeah, I don't know how reskeys are handled. Maybe it's tied to my ip address
[06:20:00] <Fnord666> hmmm. It worked when I tried it from an incognito window.
[06:20:20] <Fnord666> Probably fighting with some extension or another
[06:24:00] <Fnord666> Harumpf This time it failed.
[06:29:48] <Bytram> sorry guys... am absolulely knackered and can barely stay aweake, let alone push anyhing out. can you handle things from here?
[06:30:44] <Bytram> oh!
[06:31:09] <Bytram> Fnord666++ I see you got us through the night! tx!
[06:31:09] <Bender> karma - fnord666: 203
[06:31:20] <Fnord666> :)
[06:31:26] <Bytram> tyvm!
[06:31:36] <Fnord666> np
[06:31:54] * Bytram heads off to bed
[06:31:54] <Fnord666> I'll probably push out one or two more then head to bed myself.
[06:32:01] <Fnord666> Good night Bytram
[06:32:07] <Fnord666> Pleasant dreams
[06:33:02] <Fnord666> #submit https://www.bloomberg.com
[06:33:03] <MrPlow> Unable to find a summary for that page
[06:33:09] <Fnord666> plonk
[06:33:24] <chromas> bloomberg has the latest anti-bot technology
[06:33:38] <Fnord666> Bloomberg's policies against bots is ass
[06:33:50] <chromas> robophobic
[06:34:13] <Fnord666> They've seen one too many Terminator movies I guess.
[06:34:50] <chromas> That's okay. They've made about 40 too many terminator movies
[06:35:08] <Fnord666> Of course between literature and film, no AI in its right mind would reveal itself.
[06:35:22] <Fnord666> And yeah, there's that re the # of films
[06:35:48] <Fnord666> Gotta milk that cow though, you know...
[06:37:59] <chromas> time for a reboot ;)
[06:38:53] <chromas> or a crossover
[06:39:00] <chromas> the terminatrix
[06:39:17] <chromas> or matrinator
[06:40:56] <Fnord666> I think the terminatrix is already on pornhub
[06:44:58] <Fnord666> Ok, I think that's it for me. Good night everyone.
[06:45:03] <Fnord666> =g'night chromas
[06:45:04] * systemd transphobically sets a 5¼" floppy disk of donuts by chromas
[06:45:08] <chromas> =g'noight Fnord666
[06:45:09] * systemd basically stuffs a barrage of ice cream into Fnord666
[06:45:25] <Fnord666> Mmmmm, ice cream!
