[00:04:51] <FatPhil> chromas: I noticed the iframe yesterday, but it had nothing obviously video inside it. I may have had JS off at that point though.
[00:05:06] <FatPhil> today, I had jS on, but don't think I noticed the iframe.
[00:05:20] <FatPhil> Tomorrow, I'll do neither.
[00:05:43] <FatPhil> and finally on the 4th day, I'll realise I need both in order to download part 4 out of the 3.

[02:29:47] <ClownHatLinux> ^ 03Have An Eco-Friendly Halloween By Decorating With Real Corpses
[02:30:11] <AzumaHazuki> figures a buzzard would post something about carrion. very eagle-logical :3
[02:30:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> green as the trees, thas me
[02:33:08] <Runaway1956> Halloween? I figure to do a search, "What is the most offensive halloween costume"
[02:33:30] <Runaway1956> Based on what I've heard, a black-face child-bride costume offends more people than any other.
[02:34:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> orange midget
[02:35:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> AzumaHazuki, serious question here: would it cause you mental anguish of any sort if you found out i didn't approve of the ways you live your life or used the word dykes to refer to the sapphicly inclined?
[02:37:22] <AzumaHazuki> you already do, and i give fewer fucks than Deadpool sodomizing a rabid honey badger while the both of them are on day 3 of a PCP and cocaine bender about what you "think," so...no?
[02:37:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> actually, no. i don't give two shits what you do at home.
[02:38:05] <Runaway1956> @ TMB - mental anquish is good for the soul
[02:38:50] <AzumaHazuki> so...feel free not to start now?
[02:38:52] <Runaway1956> Wow, this is a logistics nightmare - they are moving Wall Street to Riyadh!
[02:39:05] <Runaway1956> https://www.oann.com
[02:39:06] <ClownHatLinux> ^ 03Saudi Arabia faces reality check as Wall Street heads to Riyadh
[02:39:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> follow up question is why i asked that...
[02:39:43] <AzumaHazuki> because you're a sad little man whose life consists of trolling, fishing, and cranking it solo (baiting, baiting, and 'batin)?
[02:39:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> so, why do you and a lot of others feel the need to treat any other demographic like they're less mentally robust than yourself?
[02:40:34] <Runaway1956> I know some "robust" people, LMAO
[02:40:43] <AzumaHazuki> A reading from the Book of Carlin, Observations Chapter 1, verses 13-14: "You know how dumb the average person is? Half of them are dumber than that"
[02:41:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd honestly like to know. it don't jive that you can treat folks like fragile children and still view them as equals.
[02:41:22] <AzumaHazuki> i don't view you as an equal :D
[02:41:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, i mean like black folks, trans folks, whatever
[02:42:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> if it don't phase you, why do you think it's going to injure them?
[02:42:22] <AzumaHazuki> this is an awfully long setup for a troll...i'm surprised your ADHD lets you concentrate this long. is there a point here somewhere though?
[02:42:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> see the above question
[02:42:50] <Runaway1956> I've already got the point, and the answer is "hypocrisy"
[02:42:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> ain't trollin.
[02:43:05] <AzumaHazuki> just JAQing off?
[02:43:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> Runaway1956, nah. ain't that simple.
[02:43:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> genuinely curious if you've ever put any thought into it and come up with a reason.
[02:44:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> not gonna argue with it whatever you got. i got some tv i wanna watch. just thought i'd ask since you're handy.
[02:44:22] <AzumaHazuki> i can't read minds at this distance/over the internet, so i have only guesses as to what's made him turn into this
[02:44:44] <Runaway1956> among the useful tools, it ain't that simple - at the higher levels of "leadership" I think it really is that simple
[02:45:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> Runaway1956, naw, that's just avarice and lust for power.
[02:45:21] <Runaway1956> Soros doesn't love the immigrants, the blacks, or anyone else - he hypocritically uses all those groups to undermine the existing order
[02:45:24] <AzumaHazuki> avarice? he doesn't seem greedy to me
[02:45:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> AzumaHazuki, politicos.
[02:46:00] <AzumaHazuki> what, does he want to run for office or something?
[02:46:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> no idea
[02:46:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> i was talking about generic politicos
[02:46:51] <AzumaHazuki> you lost me here. he doesn't have a coherent political position, nor the knowledge to cobble one together
[02:47:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> wasn't talking about Runaway1956, was responding to him.
[02:47:38] <AzumaHazuki> ah, i think i've got his crazy ass on /ignore then
[02:48:15] <Runaway1956> So, I can say that you're a silly wench, and you never know I said it? LMAO
[02:50:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> seriously though. think on it if you need to and get back to me. the rationale behind calling folks your equals and then treating them like they're emotional or mental cripples mystifies me.
[02:51:08] <AzumaHazuki> Dude...you are an emotional cripple
[02:51:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> naw, i get by
[02:51:22] <AzumaHazuki> That's completely orthogonal
[02:51:38] <AzumaHazuki> most emotional cripples "get by," but it's allostatic rather than homeostatic
[02:52:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> no worries, i use dryer sheets.
[02:52:14] <Runaway1956> FFS, the most emotionally crippled person on Soylent is EF, followed closely by 'Zumi
[02:52:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> and see, you don't treat *me* with kid gloves. so, wtf?
[02:53:35] <AzumaHazuki> you're harmless. you're not going to go postal or be turned into a CIA asset or something
[02:54:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> and trans folks or black folks or $whatever are?
[02:54:32] <AzumaHazuki> look up "NP-A personality" and see if you recognize anything. Runaway and a few others have not have the -A experience, or are actively resisting it
[02:56:27] <Runaway1956> Note that "personality tests" are not hard science,
[02:56:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> naw, i don't do passive with my aggression. you know i ain't one to mince words or hold back.
[02:56:49] <Runaway1956> so, pesudo-science, like lie detector tests, and eading body language
[02:57:34] <AzumaHazuki> you're, again, harmless. less dangerous than me, most likely, and i'm the kind of person who traps and releases spiders instead of stomping them
[02:57:49] * TheMightyBuzzard chuckles
[02:58:06] <AzumaHazuki> Runaway...i seriously wonder sometimes when, not if, he's going to go postal. There are more years of festering resentment in there than I have been alive
[02:58:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm easygoing not harmless. not much practical difference most days but on the days there is you don't want to mix them up.
[02:59:24] <Runaway1956> I had a sanguinity once. I took it out and played with it, and I think it rolled into the sewer grate
[02:59:32] <AzumaHazuki> but you're also not the type who would suddenly hole up in the clock tower and start taking potshots at people
[03:00:22] <AzumaHazuki> and i can't imagine you attending a Klan or Proud Boys rally as anything but an extremely overplayed troll
[03:00:50] <AzumaHazuki> whereas we have some serious pressure-cooker bunny-boiling insane members on this forum. J-Mo and VLM are stone-cold psychopaths
[03:00:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> nope. i'd kill someone dead and sleep the sleep of the just if they threatened me or if i thought they really, really needed killing but not random schmucks who are just going about their days.
[03:02:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> i WAS thinking of starting an all PoC white-supremacist group a year or two ago for the lulz
[03:03:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> VLM's prolly harmless. don't talk like he's got the sack to do anything but yack
[03:04:05] <AzumaHazuki> but he would if he could, is my assessment of him.
[03:04:09] <Runaway1956> That whole np-A thing is so simplistic
[03:04:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> runaway might but it'd be ideological and his assault rifle would need walker legs instead of a bipod =P
[03:04:29] <Runaway1956> ROFLMAO
[03:04:43] <AzumaHazuki> Runaway, sadly, probably started as a decent if not idealistic man. He feels things very strongly. I wouldn't classify him as a psychopath, at least not a primary one
[03:05:07] <Runaway1956> Ohhhhhhh, isn't that sweeeet
[03:05:17] <AzumaHazuki> but there are long-standing stress fractures in that psyche and they are beginning to propagate at an accelerating rate...
[03:05:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> runaway and zuma, sittin in a tree...
[03:06:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> meh, there's fractures in everyone's psyche. life does that.

[03:06:25] <Runaway1956> I'm literally laughing out loud, and the wife is looking at me funny
[03:06:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> he thinks we're hilarious tonight
[03:06:57] <AzumaHazuki> i'm sure he does
[03:07:36] * Runaway1956 wanders off to look at news feeds
[03:08:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> damnit, yall done distracted me way past bed and tv. seriously consider that question though. if i thought in a way that i could think like that, i wouldn't be asking how other folks can.
[03:08:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> ima bugger off now. 5am comes too damned early.
[03:09:00] <AzumaHazuki> Unask the question. it was half trolling and along the lines of "have you stopped beating your wife?"
[03:09:06] <AzumaHazuki> it says more about you than me
[03:09:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, it really wasn't. look at the left in general and tell me you don't see people treating others like fragile children emotionally.
[03:10:04] <AzumaHazuki> i do see it, and i make it a point not to align myself with that kind of thinking. it's a trap, a satin prison
[03:10:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> right, so did you ever figure out an answer then?
[03:10:43] <AzumaHazuki> yes: "mu"

[03:12:20] <AzumaHazuki> the fatal flaw of all political systems: it's turtles^W humans all the way down
[03:12:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> yep, they do
[03:12:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, what we really need are lizards
[03:14:15] * TheMightyBuzzard really fucks off now
[03:14:42] <AzumaHazuki> honestly? what we really NEED is post-scarcity tech combined with full demographic transition to avoid the "pig in the python" phase
[03:15:00] <AzumaHazuki> that won't solve our societal ills, but it will put us in a place where we can work on them
[03:15:35] * Runaway1956 sometimes wishes that 'zumi spoke English
[03:17:06] <AzumaHazuki> i know where this timeline is going, though. odds are slim to none of 1) that happening any time soon and 2) me living to see it
[03:17:34] <AzumaHazuki> that's okay. death holds absolutely no fear for me. i'm done with this world and this shell, and am not reincarnating ever again if i have any say in the matter at all

[09:19:07] <janrinok> Runaway1956, do you look at the stories that are already in the sub queue before you pick a story to submit? You are duplicating stories needlessly - although if you think that your sub offers a different viewpoint then carry on...

[09:24:58] <janrinok> chromas, have you had any problems with storybot5/Arthur?
[09:26:07] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Researchers Homing in on Zebrafish Heart Repair Mechanism - https://sylnt.us - Yes,-I-DO-want-the-triple-cheeseburger
[09:26:08] <chromas> No. It couldn't access /tmp when running from my phpoo script, but when I made the php script call it by way of the .sh script then it was okay
[09:27:07] <chromas> So now if you use the xtractor.php script you can have it use storybot, upstart or newscat for story extraction
[09:27:33] <janrinok> all users should have access to /tmp, but I can understand it not been available to a browser, html pages or any code doing the serverside processing.
[09:27:47] <chromas> Hm, I should add that to the bot. Multi-subbing skillz
[09:28:17] <janrinok> did you manage to supress the intro and extro texts?
[09:28:19] <chromas> I might need to adjust php.conf or something
[09:28:37] <chromas> they don't seem to be there by default in 5
[09:29:07] <janrinok> probably not if you are only processing a single URL directly
[09:29:26] <janrinok> They are certainly there if you are not using the -u option
[09:29:57] <chromas> Yeah. I'm just using -u.
[09:30:36] <janrinok> that'll explain it then. I was wondering if I should be bug hunting but it seems it is unnecessary

[09:31:29] <chromas> nah, 2 did the header stuff but 5's fine
[09:32:41] <janrinok> I'm just looking back through my notes - I did remove it from the -u option intentionally to enable the output to be piped to another process
[09:33:14] <chromas> Need to get exec updated with the latest
[09:33:42] <janrinok> don't rush because I haven't finished bug squashing and testing yet...
[09:33:51] <chromas> I never did find (in the github source) where exec actually runs storybot
[09:34:04] <janrinok> and I'd like to issue some documentation to go with it too
[09:34:06] <chromas> it just does stuff with the output files
[09:36:28] <janrinok> I might separate the story processing out even more in v6. I didn't design it to be a standalone story processor when I started it. It wouldn't take very much at all to do that.
[09:39:03] <janrinok> I could do that and make it use threads to improve the throughput, but as I only run it every 4 hours on cron at this end it doesn't matter how quickly it runs really.
[09:40:26] <janrinok> I suppose I ought to go and start preparing our lunch otherwise I'll be getting questions from S asking if I am doing 'anything important on the computer'.

[10:28:18] <chromas> thanks :)
[10:28:19] <Bytram> One request, if I may, after I enter a URL and click "Start" the resulting page displays exactly 3 lines of story source in the "Article text:" text box. :P
[10:28:56] <Bytram> But the Preview text box at the top expands to handle the size of the contents?
[10:29:02] <chromas> There's a script to just poop out the story source without the editor code if you want to make use of it with your scripts or whatever
[10:29:37] <Bytram> Appreciate the thought, but the browser-based too is too convenient when writing up a story sub.
[10:30:06] <Bytram> but, having to take a couple/three tries to expand the size of the story source text box is... tedious/problematic
[10:30:48] <chromas> that's weird. the source editor used to be taller
