[10:29:36] <Bytram> When you lose your cookies, it's a sign you may have been drinking too much?

[11:11:06] <Bytram> is my day off and I woke up way too early... can't get the cobwebs out of my head, so heading back to bed.
[11:14:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> this looks like a job for CoffeeMan!
[12:05:44] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - The Marist Mindset List for the Entering College Class of 2023 - http://sylnt.us - what-do-you-remember?
[12:33:02] <FatPhil> Bytram: i never (g)awk - if it's too hard for sh, I perl! ${##} and cut did the business.
[12:35:01] <FatPhil> ht another bashism later in the file, ${//}, which was fakeable using sh's ${%%} and ${##}
[13:25:51] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Now Dark Web Hackers are Targeting Internet-Connected Gas Pumps - http://sylnt.us - it's-a-gas-gas-gas
[14:07:04] <Bytram> FatPhil: So, you are assuming fixed-width preface and suffix parts to the filename? And, FWIW, (g)awk is much more lightweight than Perl.
[14:21:11] <FatPhil> The varying prefix ended with a known character, and so this was my final solution: YYYYMMDD=`echo "${f#$HTMLDIR*_}" | cut -c1-4,6-7,9-10`
[14:21:48] <FatPhil> I'm a bit binary, if I need the power of AWK, I just hit perl as I'm more fluent. If I can sed something, though, I will
[14:23:16] <Bytram> echo $filename | sed "s/(.*)_(2[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-1][0-9][0-3][0-9])_(.*)/\2/"
[14:24:03] <Bytram> I *think* that will work at extracting just the date part from the filename.
[14:24:32] <Bytram> echo $filename | sed "s/(.*)_(2[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-1][0-9][0-3][0-9])_(.*)/\2 \1_\2_\3/"
[14:24:56] <FatPhil> It would be s/.*_(....)-(..)-(..)_.*/\1\2\3/, but cut's even more lightweight than sed
[14:25:09] <Bytram> and that, hopefully, would output the date on the line, first, followed by the full filename.
[14:25:37] <Bytram> yes, it is.
[14:26:06] <Bytram> wasn't sure how far you wanted to go to make sure you had valid data; hence the regexp with numeric ranges

[22:11:11] <AzumaHazuki> welp. APK has made me a "trans rights activist" in Barbara Hudson's parlance. I finally found someone who deserves more Spam mode than a Hawaiian food truck
[22:12:05] <chromas> Don't need spam mod
[22:12:11] <chromas> Just put him in your HOSTS file
[22:12:13] <chromas> ...APK
[22:12:19] <chromas> Is it the real APK?
[22:12:21] <AzumaHazuki> LOL
[22:12:39] <AzumaHazuki> i have no idea but if it's not it's either a very, very advanced Markov bot or someone who's really done their homework...
[22:13:41] <chromas> Needs to post links to his and his replyee's past comments, mention HOSTS and occasionally his old software written in Delphi
[22:14:07] <AzumaHazuki> doing that, yes

[22:14:34] <AzumaHazuki> no we don't :v

[23:04:05] <Bytram> AzumaHazuki: Thanks for the heads-up; just refreshed some comment filters.
[23:04:07] <Bytram> teamwork++
[23:04:07] <Bender> karma - teamwork: 45
[23:05:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> the real apk used to hang here early on. he wasn't this big a douchebag.
[23:05:57] <Bytram> agreed
[23:07:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> AzumaHazuki, naw. it can stay up if it's just the occasional annoying comment, no matter how annoying. we have deleted comments before but only from proper spammers who insisted on posting gerzillions of linkspam comments to old stories.
[23:08:46] <AzumaHazuki> our maybe-APK friend is definitely spamming. multiples of the exact same message
[23:09:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> yes but not dozens to the same story, which is what we took that much of an issue with.
[23:09:58] <AzumaHazuki> at least two or three on several threads i've seen
[23:11:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> right, nuisance not extreme nuisance
[23:12:17] <AzumaHazuki> well, several other users agree he's spamming and have modded him such
[23:12:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> exactly as they should. one spam mod and he has to switch ip addresses.
[23:12:49] <AzumaHazuki> it's that powerful? thought it would take dozens
[23:13:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> whacks the ipid with a -10 karma same as a user. -10 is the start point for fuck off and die for a while policy.
[23:14:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> could conceivably take two if he's been upmodded on some other comment but as long as he sticks to asshatting it's a one shot cure.
[23:15:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> which is why it's a -10 to karma
[23:15:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> was always a functionality thing not a retribution thing
[23:16:13] <AzumaHazuki> his spamming definitely degrades the site experience
[23:17:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup but letting every last registered user effectively block by ip is about as good as you can get without deleting comments (which nobody, not even NCommander has privs enough to do on production servers through the web interface).
[23:18:18] <AzumaHazuki> so long as the mod works properly that's enough for me
[23:18:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'part of why we're such hardasses about it
[23:18:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> powerful, yo
[23:21:16] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: AzumaHazuki: "Power to the People!"
[23:22:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, yep. voltage times current to the people.
[23:22:55] <Bytram> ROFL!!!!!!!!!!
[23:23:09] <Bytram> That just might meet up with some resistance
