[00:20:27] <AzumaHazuki> word of warning: the stories submitted by "nutherguy" appear to be a sockpuppet of runaway's. check the (supposedly randomized by connection...) hostmasks
[00:22:38] <Bytram> tx for the heads-up. I take each story on face value. Been a this long enough I can pretty quickly tell dross from gold, but it helps to have a side channel of input, too. =)

[02:50:07] <Fnord666> I liked the Chesterton's Fence submission
[02:50:18] <Bytram> Fnord666: Got a favor to ask? Care to take a stab at winnowing out the hold queue? We're past due for a roundup story.
[02:50:34] -!- AzumaHazuki has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:51:18] <Bytram> I'll take a look at what's left tomorrow, do a merge, and then take a stab at winnowing things down. I think my scripts *should* be able to gather things in a proper order, now.
[02:51:49] <Bytram> Oh, and thanks for the fresh subs!
[02:51:58] <Fnord666> I'm sure it's a marvelous selection of Pulitzer prize winning journalistic pieces.
[02:52:16] <Fnord666> Seriously though, sure.
[02:52:26] <Fnord666> What would you like me to do?
[02:52:58] <Bytram> Do you happen to know if there is a single sherriff or multiple for a jurisdiction?
[02:53:21] * Bytram is looking at: https://soylentnews.org
[02:53:23] <exec> └─ 13Florida Sheriff Refuses to Stop Americans From Witnessing Historic Manned Space Launch as NASA Urges: SoylentNews Submission
[02:53:29] <Fnord666> one per jurisdiction at least in the US I believe
[02:54:09] <Bytram> so, all rest are deputies? I'm guessing? And are there no police?
[02:54:25] <Fnord666> normally LE at a county level, the sheriff is the main guy and all other LEOs are deputies.
[02:54:38] <Fnord666> They are police at the county level
[02:54:43] <Bytram> so police would be city-wide?
[02:55:23] <Fnord666> Normally for a state you state level police, county level police, and city/township level police
[02:56:01] * Bytram is aware that there are various other orgs with their own enforcement powers. E.g. metro in DC and subway in boston
[02:56:03] <Fnord666> city within the city limits, sheriff for everywhere else in the county, and state for wahtever they want it seems like
[02:56:15] <Bytram> makes sense.
[02:56:27] <Fnord666> for example State Highway Patrol
[02:56:49] <Fnord666> also many colleges have their own police for on campus
[02:57:09] <Bytram> So I go to see the launch, the sherriff gives me a handshake, and is powerless if the staties or police bring me to jail.
[02:57:16] <Bytram> yep
[02:57:38] <Bytram> thanks!
[02:59:51] <Fnord666> you're welcome.
[03:00:02] <Fnord666> be interesting to see the comments on that story
[03:00:24] <Bytram> yup!
[03:00:28] <Fnord666> and by interesting I mean how quickly it turns into a shit show
[03:00:49] <Bytram> always the optimist!
[03:01:16] <Fnord666> An optimist can never be pleasantly surprised!
[03:01:29] <Bytram> LOL!
[03:03:15] <Fnord666> I would love to see rational, well considered discourse on the pros and cons of the sheriff's declaration as well as the wiseness of attending such mass events at this time.
[03:05:49] <Fnord666> At any rate, how have you been?
[03:07:57] <Bytram> Oops... just noticed you were looking at the sheriff story. were you working on it?
[03:08:46] <Fnord666> No just looking to see what it was about
[03:08:57] <Bytram> k
[03:09:20] <Fnord666> just for context
[03:09:43] <Bytram> tired. took a long nap. rested, but still lethargic. Starting to come to, but it's now time for bed. =)
[03:09:56] <Fnord666> :)
[03:10:22] <Fnord666> It was nice out today so I got the grass cutand some yard work done.
[03:10:30] <Bytram> good for you!
[03:10:59] <Bytram> nice weather here, too. Warmest so far this year, but windy. And pollen season is getting underway. :/
[03:11:38] <Fnord666> Oh yeah. Most of the trees are in bloom here. The smell is great but the pollen is killing me.
[03:11:56] <Bytram> Can't wait for winter!
[03:12:13] <Bytram> maple--
[03:12:13] <Bender> karma - maple: -2
[03:12:29] <Fnord666> I do like winter except we don't get much snow anymore
[03:12:52] <Fnord666> You don't like maple?
[03:13:06] <Fnord666> Sugar maples make some of the best suryp
[03:13:27] <Bytram> that's the worst one for me, but there's always something throughout the summer. Are prolly some times when it is negligible, but I don't really notice those.
[03:14:31] <Fnord666> The little helicopter seeds are always cool to me.
[03:14:35] <Bytram> maples are *great* trees! Beautiful wood. Nice shape to the tree. But if they could reproduce without pollen, I'd like 'em a while lot more.
[03:14:43] <Fnord666> lol!
[03:15:26] * Bytram has prolly split a few cord of maple wood in his youth
[03:15:41] <Fnord666> Bird's eye and curly maple are gorgeous woods

[19:11:03] <Bytram> Fnord666: Hi!
[19:11:12] <Bytram> quick tougts
[19:11:36] <Fnord666> Hi!
[19:11:55] <Bytram> 1) move stories i the hold queue that you do NOT plan to use to the "normal" queue
[19:12:15] <Bytram> that way, if we decide to use one of 'em later, we can get to it.
[19:12:29] <Bytram> hold on
[19:12:59] <Bytram> never mind that
[19:13:26] <Bytram> I just got a copy of the hold and normal queues in my browser so I can go back to what was there.
[19:13:37] <Fnord666> I was just going to select the stories that I plan to use for the merge
[19:13:50] <Fnord666> not everything in the hold queue
[19:14:05] <Bytram> just do one big merge...
[19:14:06] <Bytram> oh
[19:14:08] <Bytram> hold on
[19:14:16] <Bytram> in that case
[19:14:32] <Bytram> move the ones you do not want out of hold
[19:15:03] <Bytram> recheck normal queue for any you DO want; move them to hold.
[19:15:05] <Bytram> then let me know
[19:15:27] <Bytram> my script, *SHOULD* be able to merge everything sitting in hold
[19:15:38] <Bytram> =)
[19:15:44] <Fnord666> ok
[19:16:04] <Bytram> But, it does NOT knowhow to give credit for accepted subs
[19:16:16] <Bytram> so when the hold queue is ready, tell me, I'
[19:16:30] <Bytram> I'll merge em
[19:16:45] <Bytram> and then make a sub with the merged contents
[19:20:22] <Fnord666> I was looking at doing a roundup with the science related coronavirus stories. Maybe a separate one for the cospiracy theories, politics, bleach injections, etc.
[19:20:24] <Fnord666> thoughts?
[19:21:14] <Bytram> Hmmm interesting, doubt folks would follow along for long. K.I.S.S.
[19:21:36] <Fnord666> ok, dump of everything it is
[19:22:02] <Bytram> just let me know when the queues are ready
[19:25:52] <Fnord666> please take a quick look at the hold queue and move out anything you would prefer to not include in the roundup
[19:26:49] <Bytram> k
[19:27:35] <Bytram> I see 19 stories in the hold queue.
[19:27:45] <Bytram> You want to merge all of them. Correct?
[19:28:43] <Fnord666> I would like you to look and decide if you want "Florida Man Stalks Beach as Grim Reaper to Protest Reopening Amid Pandemic" included in the roundup for example.
[19:29:07] <Fnord666> or "Bleach Ingestion Advocates Are Thrilled by Trump's 'Disinfectant' Comments"
[19:29:18] <Bytram> got it
[19:29:23] <Bytram> teamwork++
[19:29:23] <Bender> karma - teamwork: 236
[19:30:42] <Fnord666> Basically I wouldn't have run these stories by themselves so why incorporate them into a roundup?
[19:30:55] <Bytram> agreed.
[19:31:09] <Fnord666> Although I find the grim reaper one a bit humorous and might have run it o nthe weekend
[19:31:10] <Bytram> lightbulb
[19:31:19] <Bytram> =)
[19:31:21] <Bytram> hold on
[19:32:00] <Fnord666> ok. Making a mug of tea
[19:33:55] <Bytram> k
[19:34:20] * Bytram forgot he merges from cached copies brought local to his PC; retrieving now
[19:35:55] <Bytram> only 50 more stories to go
[19:38:35] <Bytram> 10
[19:43:45] <Bytram> bah
[19:44:02] <Bytram> got the files, but something puken in my script
[19:58:22] <Bytram> it's working , 'cept a problem with one set of tags.
[19:59:32] <Bytram> okaaay
[20:04:09] <Bytram> ta dah!
[20:04:31] <Bytram> Fnord666: Merged into: https://soylentnews.org(SARS-CoV2%2C+Coronavirus)+Stories
[20:04:32] <systemd> ^ 032020-05-03 Roundup of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV2, Coronavirus) Stories: SoylentNews Submission
[20:04:34] <exec> └─ 132020-05-03 Roundup of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV2, Coronavirus) Stories: SoylentNews Submission
[20:04:42] <Bytram> =)
[20:04:56] <Bytram> here's the idea...
[20:05:18] <Bytram> sift through it until we think it is ready to go
[20:05:40] <Bytram> at that point we will know what stories are really being accepted.
[20:06:01] <Bytram> go back to the hold queue, and merge those into a story so they get credit
[20:06:47] <Bytram> wait a sec
[20:17:46] <Bytram> or two
[20:23:03] <Bytram> whew!
[20:23:14] <Bytram> Fnord666: So sorry about that!
[20:23:23] <Fnord666> Trying to get travel arrangements for my daughter to come home early.
[20:23:30] <Bytram> It's now in the story queue; set to NOT display
[20:23:32] <Fnord666> so afk for a bit
[20:23:36] <Bytram> np
[20:24:13] <Bytram> actually, I was just about to step out when you PINGed me, so I'm gonna be afk for a while, too.
[20:24:23] <Bytram> Best of luck on making the arrangements!!!!!!!!!!!
[20:26:27] <Bytram> NOTE TO SELF: cannot put an <h3> tag in a story submission; just gets converted to <p> tags. Instead, sub a placeholder story, accept that, and then EDIT that story. NOW you can paste in a story with H3 elements.
[20:26:35] <Bytram> laters!
[21:40:37] <Fnord666> ok, first pass with trimming and cutting is done.
