[02:01:21] <chromas> That's weird. Bender emitted it again but sn says it'sn't been edited
[02:16:18] <Bytram> it'sn't ??
[02:16:21] <Bytram> come again?
[02:16:25] <Bytram> chromas: ^^
[02:16:54] <Bytram> chromas: btw, upstart seems to have gone on hiatus again.
[02:21:31] <Bytram> hmm, I have no idea why that story got re-emitted... maybe Bender went on a bender?
[02:22:44] <Bytram> anyway, I'm pretty knackered and am going to try and turn it at a reasonable hour tonight.
[02:23:09] <Bytram> chromas: thanks a bunch for pushing out some stories during the day's lull!

[02:24:59] <chromas> I saw a comment somewhere from someone having issues with the rss feed. Maybe that's Bender's problem too

[12:31:47] <Bytram> okay... I took a look back and it seems that this is the last Bender posting that was 'normal': https://logs.sylnt.us
[12:31:47] <upstart> ^ 03#Soylent | Logs for 2018-08-18 ( https://logs.sylnt.us )
[12:32:55] <Bytram> and, this is Bender's next posting and the first to exhibit wonkiness (in this case, posting titles for *several* stories at once): https://logs.sylnt.us
[12:32:55] <upstart> ^ 03#Soylent | Logs for 2018-08-18 ( https://logs.sylnt.us )
[12:32:59] <Bytram> .
[12:34:07] <Bytram> This Bender posting also exhibits the multiple-stories-in-a-posting-here: https://logs.sylnt.us
[12:34:07] <upstart> ^ 03#Soylent | Logs for 2018-08-18 ( https://logs.sylnt.us )
[12:34:27] <Bytram> and, from then on, all posts are double-posted.
[12:51:29] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan Dies, Aged 80 - http://sylnt.us - R.I.P.
[12:52:38] <chromas> Plus every other Bender has an "&amp;" in the url
[12:52:46] <Bytram> 'zactly
[12:53:04] <chromas> Probably something TheMightyBuzzard did before he left for maximum lulz
[12:53:18] <Bytram> which, when reduced to its actual character, becomes a literal '&'
[12:53:32] <Bytram> nah, I just think Bender is on the frtiz
[12:53:36] <Bytram> *fritz
[12:53:51] <chromas> Putin on the Ritz

[13:35:30] <Bytram> chromas: I'm curious... did you do anything on the site in the past 20 minutes wrt stories and or submissions?
[13:35:40] <chromas> Nope
[13:35:47] <Bytram> k
[13:36:32] <Bytram> trying to see if it is some kind of automated process, or if there is some 'trigger' that causes Bender to re-release a story announcement.
[13:36:57] <chromas> I get empty responses sometimes while loading the index.rss
[13:37:17] * Bytram doesn't recall ever using it... linky?
[13:37:22] <chromas> Always blank in firefox
[13:37:26] <chromas> sometimes works in opera

[13:37:51] <Bytram> clicky-1
[13:38:11] <Bytram> Looks fine in Pale Moon on win 7 Pro 64-bit
[13:38:12] <chromas> In Opera (chrome fork) it comes up empty, but after a reload or two then it works
[13:38:14] <Bytram> Clicky-2
[13:38:36] <Bytram> that one is fine, too.
[13:38:39] <chromas> Hm, view source in firefox loads it fine
[13:39:03] <Bytram> interesting... what FF version and OS?
[13:39:08] <chromas> now it loaded in ff too
[13:39:17] <Bytram> ~blame
[13:39:25] <chromas> Firefox 61752.3½ on linux
[13:39:25] <Bytram> oh, no exec. :(
[13:39:29] <Bytram> lol
[13:39:37] <Bytram> looks like a star date
[13:39:44] <chromas> 61.0.2 64bit
[13:39:50] <Bytram> k
[13:40:08] <Bytram> can you wget to a file and load that okay in FF?
[13:40:10] <chromas> empty again
[13:40:32] <chromas> curl worked but
[13:40:44] <chromas> "curl: (18) transfer closed with 100606 bytes remaining to read"
[13:41:05] <Bytram> wget --no-check-certificate --page-requisites --output-document=index_rss.html 'https://soylentnews.org/index.rss'
[13:41:06] <upstart> ^ 03404 File Not Found
[13:41:09] <chromas> the .rss and .atom files are statically generated I think
[13:41:51] <Bytram> oh, wait
[13:41:56] <chromas> I got a few errors
[13:42:04] <Bytram> prolly need an arg to convert links?
[13:42:04] <chromas> Read error at byte 96025/148647 (A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.). Retrying.
[13:42:42] <Bytram> Connection closed at byte 31618. Retrying.
[13:42:44] <chromas> It did eventually get the file
[13:43:10] <Bytram> did the file load okay?
[13:43:16] <chromas> After all the errors
[13:43:24] <chromas> it appears to be the full file
[13:43:27] * Bytram is still getting the same errors
[13:43:32] <Bytram> k
[13:43:40] <chromas> I got 503s or something the other day while previewing one specific article
[13:44:01] <Bytram> maybe it would help if I bounced the servers.
[13:44:02] <chromas> I could press Back and preview it fine, but then the next preview would give the error again
[13:44:04] <chromas> 502
[13:44:12] <chromas> "internal server error" was the message
[13:44:21] <Bytram> nod nod
[13:44:24] * Bytram loads putty
[13:44:42] <chromas> That was yesterday or so, the story about Alice Jobs
[13:44:58] <chromas> Probably being censored by linode
[13:45:15] <chromas> I don't like putty
[13:45:30] <chromas> unless there's an option somewhere, when the connection closes, the window's useless
[13:45:35] <chromas> so gotta close it and go open it agian
[13:45:49] <Bytram> okay
[13:46:16] <Bytram> Ugh... gotta grab laundry. back in a few minutes.
[13:50:29] <SemperOss> chromas: (and Bytram, of course) I'm one of the new sysadms but TMB has had trouble getting me set up correctly, so the only thing I can do to help is ... nothing ... more or less.
[13:50:56] <SemperOss> I have tried to download the file too and get the retries too
[13:52:36] <Bytram> SemperOss: !!
[13:52:40] <Bytram> Welcome aboard!

[22:23:03] <Bytram> that was my thoughts
[22:23:16] <Bytram> I'm about to write up a meta story about the work we did this morning.
[22:23:35] <Bytram> would love to have you take a look at it before I send it out
