Techrights-sec | just checked the news, there was virtually nothing | May 30 13:00 |
Techrights-sec | after looking at many, many sites | May 30 13:00 |
schestowitz-TR | the timing you typed this is funny because rianne told me 1 min ago that she had checked the news twice | May 30 13:09 |
schestowitz-TR | and "there is nothing" | May 30 13:09 |
schestowitz-TR | I'd left that aside to do "deeper" research, such as the photo ops [sic] I extracted from a long video | May 30 13:09 |
schestowitz-TR | those will come in handy later | May 30 13:10 |
schestowitz-TR | there's always *soemthing* to write about, but it's not immediately there and might be in the past | May 30 13:10 |
Techrights-sec | well, today, there is basically no coverage of anything tech anywhere | May 30 13:10 |
Techrights-sec | that I can find, I've checked a *large* number of the usual (and some unusual) | May 30 13:10 |
Techrights-sec | sites | May 30 13:10 |
schestowitz-TR | same here | May 30 13:10 |
Techrights-sec | I check mastodon weekly, though without an account, but that is always such | May 30 13:12 |
Techrights-sec | a low yield that the next check is not due until the weekend | May 30 13:12 |
schestowitz-TR | ask yourself if: | May 30 13:12 |
schestowitz-TR | - had you not checked it, you would have missed something very important | May 30 13:12 |
schestowitz-TR | - if time unix x in mastodon was more constructive than the same time unit reading rss feeds | May 30 13:12 |
Techrights-sec | no, there is rarely anything important but more occasionally something | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | interesting. however the yield is so damn low that it is more of a chore | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | to even think about mastodon | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | RSS feeds are good, but take a *lot* of time to go through. I'm not sure how | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | many blog feeds I have but it is quite a lot, then there are more regular | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | news sources via RSS as well. I'll check those tomorrow or the day after. | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | It takes a few days for worthwile links to build up there and I just checked | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | thoroughly the other day. | May 30 13:14 |
schestowitz-TR | I have tricks for reading rss feeds since ages ago | May 30 13:14 |
schestowitz-TR | you let them build up, then cluster baased on site, date, or key filter | May 30 13:14 |
schestowitz-TR | makes them easier to group and digest | May 30 13:14 |
Techrights-sec | Yes similar to my method. | May 30 13:14 |
*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #boycottnovell | May 30 13:31 | |
Techrights-sec | the general ones are bit harder and though many of the blogs follow theme | May 30 13:36 |
Techrights-sec | or reasonably narrow interests, they still take a lot of time to cull | May 30 13:36 |
Techrights-sec | If I could master the GUI component of Python, I could probably write | May 30 13:36 |
Techrights-sec | a reasonabel RSS/Atom feed reader by now. | May 30 13:36 |
schestowitz-TR | in the cli some heuristics would be easy | May 30 13:36 |
schestowitz-TR | not sure about the gui stuff | May 30 13:36 |
Techrights-sec | not sure, sometimes the most interesting material is lacking in the expected | May 30 13:37 |
Techrights-sec | terms, phrases, and keywords. | May 30 13:37 |
schestowitz-TR | draft | May 30 13:42 |
schestowitz-TR | having a go at the "FOK YUS" (focus) president | May 30 13:42 |
schestowitz-TR | you need to click on the link that says "context" | May 30 13:42 |
Techrights-sec | ack | May 30 13:43 |
Techrights-sec | not sure the car crash material is relevant unless a direct tie to showing | May 30 13:43 |
Techrights-sec | how diplomatic immunity was abused or how alcohol was involved | May 30 13:43 |
Techrights-sec | the text needs to stand on its own and the link be supplemental. | May 30 13:43 |
Techrights-sec | Remember that some of the best audience is via Gemini | May 30 13:43 |
schestowitz-TR | what the meme says is not really a joke | May 30 13:44 |
schestowitz-TR | it is factual | May 30 13:44 |
Techrights-sec | yes, that can be emphasized then, because too often the "memes" are jokes and | May 30 13:44 |
Techrights-sec | not serious | May 30 13:44 |
schestowitz-TR | right, amending.. | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | (btw, it's common knowledge in EPO... the story about the son) | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | from what I am hearing, campinos is already done for the count because he's not supported by EPO "users" | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | (never mind 'his' staff) | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | we need to drain this whole "swamp" | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | but it'll take huge effort and coordination | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | then, upc too would go away faster | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | (along with swpats hey hi 4ir bs) | May 30 13:48 |
schestowitz-TR | question: can we do some so-called 'data science' around death asnd dreath of the news | May 30 13:51 |
schestowitz-TR | like, based on "Links" or some archives on your PC? | May 30 13:51 |
schestowitz-TR | That in itself would be an interesting topic re the WWW | May 30 13:51 |
schestowitz-TR | somethign numeric rather than guy feeling | May 30 13:51 |
schestowitz-TR | *gut | May 30 13:51 |
Techrights-sec | I'm not sure how we can extract relevant material from the strings which make | May 30 13:52 |
Techrights-sec | up the web pages linked to | May 30 13:52 |
schestowitz-TR | about 12 years ago I used thunderbird archives to show the depletition of news about "Ubuntu" | May 30 13:52 |
schestowitz-TR | when the distro was losing its relevance | May 30 13:52 |
schestowitz-TR | or maybe just the media | May 30 13:52 |
schestowitz-TR | ota epo | May 30 15:08 |
schestowitz-TR | done | May 30 15:08 |
schestowitz-TR | I basically expand upon the EPO posts that are mostly photos and memes | May 30 15:08 |
schestowitz-TR | I expect us to have lots of material soon | May 30 15:08 |
schestowitz-TR | and it can drive the orange one off the edge | May 30 15:08 |
schestowitz-TR | they have meeting in 4 weeks | May 30 15:08 |
schestowitz-TR | to decide whether to replace him | May 30 15:09 |
Techrights-sec | ack | May 30 15:18 |
Techrights-sec | I hope he is replaced but the nepotism and corruption must be also fixed at | May 30 15:18 |
Techrights-sec | the same time or the series of clowns will continue | May 30 15:18 |
schestowitz-TR | they will try hard to cover up what happened the past 12 years | May 30 15:18 |
schestowitz-TR | because so many are complicity at several levels | May 30 15:18 |
