[18:06:38] <Bytram> TLA: btw, Bender is just reporting that a new story appeared on the site.
[18:05:48] <Bytram> displayed sotry had the *story*, but no comment.
[18:05:43] <TLA> can't replicate here. Probably because I've still got the page cached.

[17:59:04] <TLA> no, I got it this morning with the microsoft story, thought it was just a local glitch
[17:56:59] <Bytram> TLA: have you run into this independently? Or are you just following along with my examples?
[17:56:28] <Bytram> I have *no* idea!
[17:56:18] <TLA> yeah, this is only happening today tho, what's changed on the site in the last 24 hours?

[17:54:57] * Bytram does: new tab, paste url: https://soylentnews.org and hits enter; sees page display.
[17:54:44] <TLA> once the page is loaded with the comments I can't repeat the initial symptom until I kill the browser which I've got set to flush the local cache
[17:54:22] * Bytram had some other tabs open that might have affected it; closed all soylent tabs except the one for the main page.
[17:53:32] <Bytram> on the first try. :/ ??!!?
[17:53:21] * Bytram sees the comment, now.
[17:53:09] <NetCraft> ^* 03SN comment by mr_mischief (4884)
[17:53:09] * Bytram pastes in this url: https://soylentnews.org
[17:53:02] <TLA> could call this a randomly repeatable cache miss?
[17:52:55] * Bytram opens a new tab
[17:52:39] * Bytram closes those tabs
[17:52:16] <Bytram> and NOW I see it. Took like 3-4 reloads, total
[17:51:47] * Bytram tries F5 one more time.
[17:51:36] <TLA> i got the comments on that one

[17:49:54] <TLA> same, F5 fixes it. Weird.

[16:50:11] <TLA> ok. That's a lot better. I think it was the headline that threw me.

[16:37:12] <Bytram> if you like the new version better, submit that along with a note at the top saying it is intended to replace the earlier one.
[16:36:34] <Bytram> TLA: an idea... copy the links into an editor window, along with their titles, and rewrite the submission. See what changes.

[16:35:04] <TLA> just not feeling it.
[16:35:02] <Bytram> janrinok: FAB?
[16:34:52] <TLA> can't put my finger on why.
[16:34:47] <janrinok> FAB, Bytram
[16:34:38] <TLA> hm, I'm not totally happy with that submission.
[16:34:27] <janrinok> oh, wrong thunderbird

[16:34:21] <Bytram> ROFL
[16:34:13] * janrinok "Thunderbirds are Go!"

[16:33:03] <janrinok> thx - but I only need a Nigerian Prince today for a full house....

[16:32:33] <janrinok> hi mechanicjay
[16:32:27] mechanicjay|gonehome is now known as mechanicjay
[16:31:17] <janrinok> I love checking my SN email - I can buy a walk-in tub, have my website improved, and learn new tricks for getting laid.
[16:30:52] * Bytram has some reading to do... back in a bit
[16:30:20] <Bytram> LOL!
[16:30:19] <Bytram> oh, *I've* got 5 new messages!
[16:30:04] <Bytram> lol! How's that again? ;)
[16:29:52] <janrinok> phew - I thought that I was going senile then. Well, I probably am, but you know what I mean.
[16:29:35] <Bytram> but there's a buncha new msgs waiting for 'em
[16:29:17] * Bytram notes nothing special there for TLA -- regular user seclev
[16:28:41] * Bytram goes to check privs
[16:28:39] <janrinok> that last bit was for TLA of course....
[16:28:22] <Bytram> righto!
[16:27:51] <janrinok> I'm not sure how he can test it then. The story page is the queue of edited stories that have already been allocated a release slot.
[16:27:07] <Bytram> janrinok: he can't
[16:26:54] <janrinok> TLA: I might be being dim again (!) but how can you see the story page - not the submissions page?
[16:26:30] <Bytram> tis easier just to boost font size on a PC monitor with Ctrl+Plus on the numpad
[16:25:57] <TLA> odd scaling might throw your perception, I can test on a 600x1024 (by rotating my netbook display in native mode) which is a smidge smaller in real estate terms than a 7" tablet
[16:25:50] <Bytram> lies == falsehood
[16:25:45] <Bytram> bit of a koan going on there... =)
[16:25:24] <Bytram> the length is what lies between the ends
[16:25:07] <janrinok> TLA - how long is a piece of string? Each ed has a different configuration.
[16:24:57] * Bytram just pressed ctrl+0 and sees lots of white space open up in the story list
[16:24:25] * Bytram has a 1920x1200 display, but runs with larger fonts so I don't have a whole lot of excess space in the displayed columns.
[16:24:25] <janrinok> we've cut the sub list down, so hopefully we will encourage lots of new subs to get us through the w/e
[16:24:02] <ciri> doing great here
[16:24:02] <TLA> how small a screen are you designing for?
[16:23:49] <janrinok> thx for the heads up
[16:23:38] <Bytram> I'm gonna be mostly unavailable this weekend from early friday afternoon through late sunday afternoon.
[16:23:23] <janrinok> I'd have to look at that on some different displays. All mine are widescreen and my only complaint is that half the screen is blank title field. On a smaller screen it might be more critical, so you point might be worth further investigation. I don't think that it would affect me.
[16:23:09] <Bytram> almost forgot to mention it!
[16:23:06] <Bytram> oh!
[16:22:49] * Bytram is tired -- been fighting a cold/allergies for the past week and his typing skills have suffered
[16:22:16] <sedctl> <Bytram> has no idea how that would work on a touch-interface
[16:22:16] <Bytram> s/look/work/
[16:22:08] * Bytram has no idea how that would look on a touch-interface
[16:21:43] <Bytram> the idea is that I would still be able to access the *entire* title, without taking up so much screen space.
[16:21:23] <janrinok> ok
[16:21:20] <Bytram> whtevah
[16:21:13] <janrinok> Even the first 30 chars of each title is unique
[16:21:03] <Bytram> What I'm suggesting is that the text that is *displayed* as the title could be reduced to the first, say, 40 chars, but have the entire title added as a title parm in the url
[16:20:47] <janrinok> yes but as you are clicking on the readable title, why does that matter?
[16:20:20] <Bytram> right?
[16:20:16] <NetCraft> ^* 03I can't!
[16:20:16] <Bytram> see only: https://soylentnews.org

[16:19:53] <janrinok> ah, understood now
[16:19:50] <Bytram> story 1 in the story queue
[16:19:29] <janrinok> Bytram: I'm getting confused, where do you want that to display? In comments, I thought you could do that now as a user option - but I might be wrong again
[16:19:28] * Bytram would like to see the same kind of thing on story comments
[16:19:13] <sedctl> <Bytram> that way, I could hover my mouse cursor over the story title and see the entire title, if I want, and yet allow the display to be truncated to something more useful size-wise.
[16:19:13] <Bytram> s/hove/hover/
[16:19:06] <Bytram> that way, I could hove my mouse cursor over the story title and see the entire title, if I want, and yet allow the display to be truncated to something more useful size-wise.
[16:18:22] <NetCraft> ^ 03I can't!
[16:18:21] <Bytram> https://soylentnews.org
[16:18:01] <Bytram> and it would be nice if it became:
[16:17:54] <NetCraft> ^ 03I can't!
[16:17:53] <Bytram> https://soylentnews.org
[16:17:44] <janrinok> we are talking about the story queue page which I don't think you see, do you TLA?
[16:17:43] <Bytram> has this url, now:
[16:17:37] <Bytram> janrinok: for example, the story: "Silicon Valley Is the World's Innovation Capital Because of a Legal Technicality "
[16:17:12] <Bytram> janrinok: on /. (IIRC) there was something in the URL...
[16:17:09] <janrinok> TLA on my widescreen, the title fills over half the screen and is mostly blank
[16:16:01] <Bytram> true
[16:15:26] <janrinok> moving the datetime to the left by 6 chars and putting in a delta in minutes would work
[16:15:24] <Bytram> ISTR there's CSS that could truncate the text to the visible field width
[16:14:38] <janrinok> and the comments field will never fill 10 chars or so
[16:14:36] <Bytram> janrinok: problem is, that when it *is* used, and I try and reduce my browser window size, everything goes double spaced. :/
[16:14:34] <ciri> rofl
[16:14:34] <TLA> lol don't shorten it! I go for a six to eight word headline but it's nice to be able to stretch the toes when I need to!
[16:14:09] <janrinok> on my display at least
[16:13:47] <janrinok> Bytram: although the story title field is rarely more than 60% used.
[16:13:38] <Bytram> no eyed deer
[16:13:08] <TLA> which is a chunk. 12GW?
[16:12:53] <TLA> Germany's nearly 40% solar
[16:12:34] <Bytram> ^^ janrinok
[16:12:18] <Bytram> yuppers
[16:12:15] <TLA> that's what I'm thinking, they had half a Gigawatt to deal with during the Eastenders live episodes, and the 1999 eclipse caused a 3GW bump (that hardly anyone felt)
[16:12:09] <janrinok> Bytram: another good idea but we are v short of screen real estate
[16:12:08] <Bytram> swap completeed.
[16:11:52] <Bytram> janrinok: yeh, but they've dramatically increased the amount of solar
[16:11:36] * Bytram suspects that windpower would be affected, too
[16:11:29] <janrinok> TLA: I can't think why NG are worried - it's not the first solar eclipse that we've ever had
[16:11:24] <Bytram> TLA: ooooh! I never thought of that! Very interesting!
[16:10:47] <TLA> funny that Germany are majorly reliant on solar and they're like "Das meh."
[16:10:38] <Bytram> janrinok: /me keeps wishing for a 'delta time in minutes' column... would that help?
[16:10:24] <TLA> speaking of power: the BBC are reporting that the National Grid are worried about the power surge following the eclipse, follow-up story or shall I just drop the link in as a comment?
[16:10:06] <janrinok> yeah, maths is crap when I'm tired, or at any other time too
[16:10:02] <Bytram> TLA: wow!
[16:09:30] <Bytram> :P\
[16:09:12] <Bytram> had to fix the release time on your latest story, was only 55 minutes after its predecessor
[16:09:07] <TLA> was so glad when solid state, dry caps made it into power supplies, first thing I did when they came out in 2004 was buy a crate of them. They were all used in a month.
[16:09:02] <janrinok> ah, let you off then
[16:08:52] * Bytram is working on it...
[16:08:37] <janrinok> Bytram: you didn't change the stories that you said - chicken!
[16:08:36] <Bytram> janrinok: power, yup.... and man did those three 20" monitors throw out a bunch of heat, too!
[16:07:25] * Bytram *never* had a problem with emachines
[16:07:16] <TLA> *supplies
[16:07:11] <janrinok> my last monitor is a Sun GDM-5410, a huge beast of a thing, but it has 1880x1400 and a lovely display. Eats up power tho'
[16:07:08] <TLA> first thing to go was always the power supplites
[16:07:04] <Bytram> yup, they were screamers all right: 400MHz celerons!
[16:06:50] * TLA hates emachines because the quality of the components was always DIRE
[16:06:29] <Bytram> and the right hand box was for using my tools to evaluate the results
[16:06:18] <Bytram> middle system for running the tests
[16:06:13] <TLA> those emachines must've been screaming
[16:06:06] <Bytram> left-hand system was for running progs that I wrote to create test data
[16:05:45] <Bytram> installed redhat 6.2 on the emachines and used 'em as glorified terminals
[16:05:29] <Bytram> ran 'em all at 1600x1200
[16:05:21] <Bytram> I got 3 e-machines and 3 viewsonic A110 20.0" monitors
[16:04:51] <TLA> I get that feeling all the time. Never enough screen.
[16:04:36] * janrinok notices that one of _my_ stories is being moved from prime time to make way for one of Bytram's stories. hehehe
[16:04:22] <Bytram> well, it was more *wanted* than *needed*, if you know what I mean?
[16:04:06] <Bytram> TLA: I had a project I was working on and needed *lots* of screen real estate
[16:03:30] * Bytram is swapping release times of stories [1] and [5] in the story queue...
[16:03:25] <TLA> hehe... my last CRT was a monster of a colour screen, did 1600x1200 on a 20.4" (visible) tube. Until it imploded.
[16:03:23] <janrinok> Bytram: you posted over 10 hours worth of stories this morning!
[16:02:49] <Bytram> =)
[16:02:47] <Bytram> TLA: That's funny! I can read the VT100 theme without your glasses, too!
[16:02:17] <janrinok> Bytram: ;)
[16:02:14] <TLA> I can actually read the VT100 theme without my glasses :)
[16:02:14] <Bytram> how can you take a break if you don't let folks fill in for ya? =)
[16:02:00] <janrinok> TLA: has this conversation been going on for more that 24 hours now? I still have a green screen monitor, but my amber stopped working a year or two back and went to that big monitor graveyard in the sky
[16:02:00] <Bytram> there's still 2 1/2 hours to go before my last-queued story was supposed to go out...
[16:01:14] <Bytram> janrinok: I tried to fill in for a stretch last night, but by the time I looked this AM, you'd been back at it again!
[16:00:53] <Bytram> janrinok: good for you!
[16:00:44] <Bytram> I picked up an amber on black one and found it to be extremely easy on my eyes.
[16:00:23] <janrinok> np - I think I've finished posting for today
[16:00:17] <Bytram> monochrome was it, baby!
[16:00:12] <Bytram> TLA: at the time, there were no color monitors (at anything like an affordable price)
[15:59:50] <Bytram> just didn't want to mess up any story arc you might have been working on/with
[15:59:32] <Bytram> merci!
[15:59:30] <TLA> tho with the Archie you could write a small script that changed the default console colours
[15:59:20] <janrinok> change the stories however you wish ;)
[15:59:12] * Bytram refreshes the story queue
[15:58:47] <Bytram> janrinok: hi!
[15:58:41] <janrinok> Bytram: hi
[15:58:41] <Bytram> ISTR it was xga(?) resolution compatible...
[15:58:40] <TLA> I know the BBC had white/black, then they switched it for the Archimedes console to paper
[15:58:18] <Bytram> I'd gotten a hercules-compatible videao adapter for my 286
[15:57:56] <Bytram> oy, lemme think
[15:57:45] <TLA> which one had amber/black?

[15:57:25] * Bytram misses amber on black
[15:57:20] <Bytram> TLA: nope
[15:57:16] <Bytram> if you have a pref, let me know, otherwise, I'll prolly just swap mine with your last (latest scheduled to go out) one
[15:56:54] <TLA> am I old because I miss green text/black background?
[15:56:51] <Bytram> Thinking of swapping my story with one of yours (so there isn't a gap)

[07:25:08] <Negative_Nancy> More important, why does a cert that's available to anyone hitting the server need to be stored encrypted?
[07:24:31] <Negative_Nancy> But for example, maybe I have a tablet or something that doesn't leave the house, so it's unlikely to be lost or stolen
[07:22:54] <Negative_Nancy> you sound like a systemd supporter
[07:22:38] <ar> why wouldn't you actually have screenlock set up properly? o_O
[07:21:27] <Negative_Nancy> it puts them into an encrypted keystore using your screenlock as a key so you have to up your lockscreen security, then it keeps warning that someone could be spying on your connection
[07:20:29] <ar> and how's the support for user-installed certs actually broken? i did use them the last time i used an android phone and things seemed to work

[06:31:59] <chromas> But systemd isn't just an init system. It's also the session manager, the container manager, and maybe someday, a web browser
[06:31:04] <ar> it's a sign of bad design if your browser needs to interact with an init system
[05:51:41] <chromas> ie doesn't work with systemd-based operating systems :D
[05:49:06] <ar> not really. well, it sucks privacy-wise, but so does ie
[05:48:31] <chromas> chrome sucks
