Techrights-sec | otr: IRC is way off the topic of tech | Aug 26 08:36 |
schestowitz-TR2 | yes, irc was bad yesterday and the day before | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | busynut noisy | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | *busy but | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | now I need to talk to that nazi about his weird views | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | seems societal breakdown means mental health crisis too | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | and that means a lot of professional/exprert debate becomes politicial and whacky in nature | Aug 26 08:39 |
Techrights-sec | ack | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | just my observation anyway | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | it'll gewt worse in the coming years | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | lockdowns already exposed many adults to BS on sites like youtube | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | the re-programming makes society less functional and less cohesive | Aug 26 08:39 |
schestowitz-TR2 | I joked with rianne yesterday afternoon that this past week (or few days) we got an influx of 99-helpline | Aug 26 08:51 |
Techrights-sec | true enough | Aug 26 09:03 |
Techrights-sec | thinking about the incron failure, I'm not sure of a way around it at the | Aug 26 09:08 |
Techrights-sec | moment even after resting the problem for a while. There is always the | Aug 26 09:08 |
Techrights-sec | option of running the script manually but that, I tbink, is an unnecessary | Aug 26 09:08 |
Techrights-sec | and annoying step. | Aug 26 09:08 |
schestowitz-TR2 | the way I do it now is, I am stationed at Features, wget the image, then plant the filename alone in the template I alkready have | Aug 26 09:09 |
schestowitz-TR2 | it does not take long | Aug 26 09:09 |
schestowitz-TR2 | the annoying part is sometimes removing trailing spyware with chars that wget does not like | Aug 26 09:09 |
schestowitz-TR2 | e.g. logo.jpg?salkdskjfkjdbfjkdsbkdsbfkdj#somesurveillanceshit | Aug 26 09:09 |
Techrights-sec | the resizing script is a in perl so it would be trivial to add the ability | Aug 26 09:33 |
Techrights-sec | to rename the files without the spying query trailing the URL | Aug 26 09:33 |
Techrights-sec | do the URLs you fetch from end up with a pound sign # in the name, too? | Aug 26 09:33 |
Techrights-sec | Can that even happen, in your workflow? | Aug 26 09:33 |
schestowitz-TR2 | usually it is a question mark | Aug 26 09:34 |
schestowitz-TR2 | let me get the most recent examples | Aug 26 09:34 |

Techrights-sec | ok | Aug 26 09:36 |
Techrights-sec | try quotes around the URL | Aug 26 09:45 |
Techrights-sec | either single quotes or double quotes | Aug 26 09:45 |
Techrights-sec | the ampersand is throwing it off in the interactive shell | Aug 26 09:45 |
schestowitz-TR2 | I think it would still make a strange filename | Aug 26 09:45 |
schestowitz-TR2 | sometimes I need to mv the file to make the filename saner | Aug 26 09:45 |
Techrights-sec | yes it will make a strange file name but the file can be processed and renamed then, some sites will react badly if you cut off parts of the query and thus | Aug 26 09:47 |
Techrights-sec | give error 400 or something similar | Aug 26 09:47 |
schestowitz-TR2 | ieee is just a very nasty site | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | it does other very bad things | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | like JS-only | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | or empty titles | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | or block curl | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | I didn't look into how and why | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | it's just a really bad desigg | Aug 26 09:48 |
schestowitz-TR2 | intentionally | Aug 26 09:48 |
Techrights-sec | yes, it has been the victim of microsofters rather severely iirc | Aug 26 09:48 |
Techrights-sec | anyway, see tm-scale-and-process-image.pl | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | it strips the queries and such from the file names as part of the processing | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | the two main weaknesses are that the file and its destination must be on | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | the same partition / file system and the script does not yet handle SVGs | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | yes both # and ? | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | and puts the image in /i/ along with a thumbnail and the text for making | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | a link to the image; perhaps the script ought to use a different scheme for | Aug 26 09:54 |
Techrights-sec | naming the thumbnails? | Aug 26 09:54 |
schestowitz-TR2 | so it removes #. | Aug 26 09:54 |
schestowitz-TR2 | if the filenames remain in tact, it helps avoid downloading some of the same images over and over gain | Aug 26 10:13 |
schestowitz-TR2 | more toom for reuse, e.g. with ls|grep | Aug 26 10:13 |
