[03:05:22] <Bytram> Fnord666++ thanks for filling in the story queue to get us until sunrise for the eastern US
[03:05:22] <Bender> karma - fnord666: 51
[03:05:51] * Bytram used chromas' bot to submit a couple stories... hopefully someone can run with one or more of them
[03:06:06] <Bytram> and, with that, I really need to get some sleep.
[03:06:14] <Bytram> have a great night, everyone!
[03:06:22] <Fnord666> good night Bytram!
[03:06:29] <Fnord666> pleasant dreams
[03:07:02] <Fnord666> I'm going yo see if there are couple more stories to post then turn in myself
[03:10:52] * chromas should probably change the prefix to something keyboards have
[03:16:37] <Fnord666> I did run a couple that were submitted by chromas' bot. Seemed ok to me.
[03:17:37] <Fnord666> the only story that was messed up in the queue was the Register story about the iphone 8 issue
[03:18:12] <chromas> Was it a bot sub? And do you have a link for debugging purposes?
[03:18:21] <Fnord666> it was a bot sub
[03:18:45] <Fnord666> submission was https://soylentnews.org

[03:19:18] <Fnord666> For example the link to the story had the href but no content in the tag
[03:19:29] <chromas> Ah, thanks.
[03:19:38] <chromas> Yeah it's supposed to put in the domain if it can't find a site name
[03:19:44] <chromas> So that's a bug
[03:19:50] <chromas> (obviously)
[03:20:37] <Fnord666> and a few paragraphs of nothing but non-breaking spaces, coutesy of El Reg's crappy formatting
[03:20:56] <Fnord666> s/coutesy/courtesy/
[03:20:58] <exec> <Fnord666> and a few paragraphs of nothing but non-breaking spaces, courtesy of El Reg's crappy formatting
[03:20:58] <chromas> I dunno where it got those s 'cause they're not in the Reg's source
[03:21:06] <Fnord666> oh really?
[03:21:18] <chromas> At least in Firefox. I should load it with curl to be sure
[03:21:23] <Fnord666> well then that would be a bug
[03:21:26] <chromas> since that's how the bot gets it
[03:21:32] <Fnord666> ah
[03:22:31] <chromas> Looks the same from curl. Weird. I don't think I have a function to even generate those. Must be something rehash does with all the spaces
[03:22:49] <chromas> The bot's supposed to strip those though
[03:23:13] <Fnord666> hmmm
[03:23:41] <Fnord666> that html is a dog's breakfast
[03:24:38] <Fnord666> but it won't be the first time rehash has "rehashed" some html
[03:24:39] <chromas> I pity the dog who has to eat that
[03:24:47] <Fnord666> :)
[03:25:02] <Fnord666> I like dogs too much to do that to em
[03:25:32] * Fnord666 tosses it into the cat's dish
[03:28:08] <Fnord666> Looks like the bot's coming along though
