[00:20]	Techrights-sec	I've also labeled non-gemini links with a small arrow to avoid suprise links
[00:20]	Techrights-sec	to http and other destination.
[00:21]	schestowitz__	great job! This goes WELL beyond what I thought we'd have. I think we'll be one of the biggest capsules on the Net.

[04:18]	schestowitz__	I have just spent 20 mins trying to hunt down the name of a 4-letter tool you mentioned for IP addresses being dynamic
[04:18]	schestowitz__	along the way found https://www.noip.com/download?page=linux
[04:18]		-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.noip.com | Dynamic Update Client (DUC) Download - Linux - No-IP
[04:18]	schestowitz__	I very much doubt only some CLI program would magically keep (somehow) DNS upstream updated with changes without signing up to some service
[04:19]	schestowitz__	with my webhost I don't know if there's a nice GUI through which I can manually enter changes, but I can check...
[04:20]	Techrights-sec	It would be possible to kludge together something if your Registrar
[04:20]	Techrights-sec	does not already offer some dynamic DNS service.
[04:24]	schestowitz__	I am checking the GUI they give me now at catalyst2 and I should share the password with you
[04:24]	schestowitz__	as rianne cannot easily handle those sorts of things if I'm away/hospital/worse
[04:24]	Techrights-sec	manual entry is a waste of time and effort though
[04:26]	schestowitz__	does not seem to give me even the option to add subdomains, not at this level anyway (unless it's also hosted there, I thin)
[04:27]	schestowitz__	*think
[04:28]	schestowitz__	maybe that is maintained at the nameserver they point to (their own)?
[04:28]	Techrights-sec	an option for additional hostnames for the same domain /ought/ to be somewhere
[04:28]	Techrights-sec	in the interface
[04:30]	schestowitz__	can I share with you the credentials?
[04:31]	schestowitz__	those apply to other domains of mine, good at have a fallback person not just for TR and TM
[04:33]	Techrights-sec	could be, but the main point of a registrar is to add/remove/change hostnames
[04:38]	schestowitz__	Hi,
[04:38]	schestowitz__	Under my account Schestowitz.com ("schestow" is the username) I havetechrights.org as a domain. I have just carefully studied the "billing" area of my account to see if I can add a subdomain fortechrights.org from there. All I can change is nameserver config and several other things. What I'd like to do, if possible, is create gemini.techrights.org and then point that subdomain to the IP address of my home (residential),
[04:38]	schestowitz__	possibly updating the address associated with thatsubdomain each time it changes.
[04:38]	schestowitz__	If that possible from my side? Does that need to be done by a different procedure?
[04:38]	schestowitz__	Regards,
[04:38]	schestowitz__	Roy
[04:38]	Techrights-sec	I guess so.
[04:46]	schestowitz__	https://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/installing-the-linux-dynamic-update-client-on-ubuntu/ shows they have tools for keeping those things updated. At first I thought that for gopher or gemini it would typically make sense to register another domain altogether
[04:46]		-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.noip.com | How to Install the Linux Dynamic Update Client on Ubuntu
[04:49]	Techrights-sec	The menu allows adding contats / sub-accounts
[04:49]	Techrights-sec	However, it looks like they may try to charge for an additional subdomain.
[04:49]	Techrights-sec	That should come as part of the basic package at no additional cost.
[04:49]	Techrights-sec	If they charge, or try to, then it is time to switch registrars.
[04:50]	schestowitz__	They charge me 35 pounds per domain, every 2 years, but they give me hosting for a decent price (site and email etc.) and I have been with them for ages, their support is very good, so I don't wish to move
[04:50]	Techrights-sec	Ask around for recommendations if that happens.  gandi was good many years
[04:50]	Techrights-sec	ago but I am not sure of which ones are good or bad in 2021
[04:54]	Techrights-sec	https://www.gandi.net/en/domain
[04:54]	Techrights-sec	13 for renewal, but without VAT it will be lower
[04:54]	Techrights-sec	when you renew the domains, renew them at some new registrar not catalyst,
[04:54]	Techrights-sec	the transfer can be made during the renewal or right before as part
[04:54]	Techrights-sec	of the renewal but not just after the renewal.
[04:54]		-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.gandi.net | Domain names: choose from over 750 extensions - Gandi.net
[04:55]	schestowitz__	I don't mind overpaying for domains, tbh, as long as part of that goes towards convincing them to UNDER-charge me for my personal site, which has generous space+bw limits and is backup up offsite, comes with real-time support etc.
[04:56]	schestowitz__	you can add yourself as a contact, and should, it is well overdue to be honest and will help me sleep at night (or at hospital)
[04:56]	Techrights-sec	Ok.  As long at it ends up being cost-effective.
[04:57]	schestowitz__	I have been with this webhost for 18 years and stayed because they were good
[04:57]	Techrights-sec	Ok, but bureaucratically it looks better if you add the contact information.
● Feb 11
[05:04]	schestowitz__	I've added it myself, only to then realise you had done that too, so now there are too almost identical records, which I guess does no harm
[05:04]	Techrights-sec	I've entered the contact data.  You can now tick the box at the bottom of the
[05:04]	Techrights-sec	form to actrivate that contact acccount.
[05:08]	schestowitz__	I have just turned off ipfs, seeing today's objects have been copied and are accessible from other nodes (I test this manually each day)
[05:09]	Techrights-sec	One can be deleted then.
[05:09]	Techrights-sec	I've logged out for now and will connect with the new profile when the
[05:09]	Techrights-sec	password is ready
[05:09]	Techrights-sec	IPFS makes even SSH slow on the RPi.  Perhaps some traffic shaping on the RPi
[05:09]	Techrights-sec	is in order?
[05:10]	schestowitz__	Time-limiting (around 3-5am) works OK for me, as that's enough for replication and I'm either alseep/barely active at those times
[05:12]	schestowitz__	BTW, are there gemini access logs or something similar to assess access stats? The work gemini is so generic and the software barely used, so it's hard to find info on it
[05:12]	Techrights-sec	Ok, but it was unusably slow the last few hours.
[05:12]	Techrights-sec	even on SSH
[05:12]	Techrights-sec	but also Gemini
[05:13]	Techrights-sec	I'm not sure ofthe Gemini server.  It was compiled by hand.
[05:13]	Techrights-sec	So the logs could be anywhere, if they exist.
[05:13]	schestowitz__	agate serves it
[05:14]	schestowitz__	another too generic a name, I can find nothing even in google
[05:15]	schestowitz__	https://github.com/mbrubeck/agate has very scarce docs
[05:15]		-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-github.com | GitHub - mbrubeck/agate: Very simple server for the Gemini hypertext protocol
[05:15]	Techrights-sec	It has an option for silent logging.
[05:16]	schestowitz__	I could just use a *top tool for networking, when ipfs is turned off, to assess the impact of gemini over time
[05:16]	Techrights-sec	that is to say an option to turn off logging
[05:18]	schestowitz__	"Agate uses the env_logger crate and allows you to set the logging verbosity by setting the default RUST_LOG environment variable. For more information, please see the documentation of env_logger."
[05:21]	Techrights-sec	Currently it is running with the -s option.
[05:21]	Techrights-sec	$ systemctl status agate
[05:21]	Techrights-sec	see also
[05:21]	Techrights-sec	$ cat /etc/systemd/system/agate.service
[05:21]	Techrights-sec	The cert is tied to the temporary host name though.
[05:21]	schestowitz__	yes, I plan to change that when we have something permanent, it's a one line command, see gemini bash_history
[05:22]	schestowitz__	btw, did you ever manage to find debian/buster binaries for something like kristall?
[05:27]	schestowitz__	exported to ~/setupnotes.txt in case we have that flushed out (history -c)

[09:03]	schestowitz__	we have incident!
[09:03]	schestowitz__	about 15 minutes ago I added a node to drupal
[09:04]	schestowitz__	and now the front page does not list all the latest stories, maybe there are related issues too
[09:04]	schestowitz__	this happened in the past when the cms went kind of funky and I'm not sure we had a fix other than recovery from DB dump, thought I might be wrong
[09:05]		*genr8_ has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[09:05]	schestowitz__	shall I try to run DB repair? or flush drupal cache? it might be some table being not consistent
[09:08]	schestowitz__	starting by cache deletion
[09:16]		*GNUmoon2 (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes
[09:18]		*genr8_ (~genr8_@unaffiliated/genbtc) has joined #techbytes
[09:26]	schestowitz__	attempted DB recovery, no issue found
[09:26]	schestowitz__	I may now restore from latest dump, which is recent enough anyway
[09:30]	schestowitz__	gunzipping latest dump
[09:32]	schestowitz__	importing DB, fingers crossed
[09:51]	schestowitz__	it seems to be restricting itself to one cpu core when restoring, which means it is slow, but it's the outcome I care about rather than the speed.
● Feb 11
[10:00]	schestowitz__	aha, fixed. Short story, IMPORTANT TO DOCUMENT THIS and remember for years to come:
[10:00]	schestowitz__	1) restored from recent dump
[10:00]	schestowitz__	2) did not fix the issue
[10:00]	schestowitz__	3) it's not caching either
[10:00]	schestowitz__	4) container/vm does not show disk space by partition
[10:00]	schestowitz__	real issue was,
[10:01]	schestowitz__	5) /TMP running out of space
[10:01]	schestowitz__	6) the DDOS attacks likely filled it up
[10:01]	schestowitz__	7) last night's attacks
[10:01]	schestowitz__	8) so no need really to shed off cache, resort to backups etc.
[10:01]	schestowitz__	just rm -f /tmp
[10:02]	Techrights-sec	makes sense, since the file is being processed sequentiall
[10:02]	Techrights-sec	(I resume)
[10:02]	Techrights-sec	^presume
[10:03]	schestowitz__	in case I forget or am not around, make mental note: (I think we had a similar incident years ago) if front page does not show latest stories and all else is fine, check if disk space ran out. df on that machine does not work correctly.
[10:05]	schestowitz__	gzipping the dump again, to spare space on /home ... will not manually restore the diffs between last dump and what we got rid of. Upside: we did get to actually test the backup regime. Time to import full drupal DB is about 20-30 mins
[10:11]	schestowitz__	done, all restored. It's a good thing the dump was recent enough, so all I had to restore was one comment and two nodes. I think we should better separate apart remote and local backups. I also noticed that we have not yet brought up to date the TM backup scripts in ~/bin (IP addresses have changed)
[10:13]	schestowitz__	I think that when we did have an identical issue in the past it was not /tmp running out of space but root, as we dumped the DBs into root rather than /home and sometimes the dumps would add up and overfill /root whereupon front page of TM looks all weird. We really need to mentally document all those symptoms and causes to help identify where the culprit may be.

[13:18]	schestowitz__	when you ssh the pi, assuming I keep the records up to date, there's now a domain (updated manually) instead of ip

[14:09]	schestowitz__	so it seems like amfora does not support terminal colour and escape chars, see cat on main index compared to amfora's rendering of it
[14:09]	Techrights-sec	the scripts are all in alpha stage still not ready for public
[14:09]	Techrights-sec	the output is not ready for public either
[14:10]	schestowitz__	not 'advertising' URLs yet, just mentioning it routinely to help raise awareness and show mere previews
[14:10]	Techrights-sec	gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/02/09/index.gmi
[14:25]	Techrights-sec	There are some dates missing from the generated conversions.
[14:25]	Techrights-sec	I'll have to dig into that.  The day summary is in prototype stage.
[14:25]	Techrights-sec	gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/01/01/
[14:26]	schestowitz__	Nice! Can you look at front page to confirm logo is OK? I cannot do rich chars and colour, it's just simply now supported altough cli gnu utils support them fine
[14:31]	schestowitz__	The current one (latest) of the one 10 mins ago?
[14:36]	Techrights-sec	The text graphics are not identifiable as anything.
[14:36]	Techrights-sec	The one at the moment is identifieable but wraps within 80 columns and
[14:36]	Techrights-sec	doesn't work in that regard, at 106 columns it is ok
[14:36]	Techrights-sec	I'd say it's too fancy and not a good ROI
[14:37]	schestowitz__	I want to learn how different existing clients/browsers handle or render those pages/capsules to better adapt, we'll probably toss aside and redo this later, if at all
[14:48]	schestowitz__	$ find tr_text_version | grep /techrights-2021 | sort -r | while read line; do echo "=> $line"; done
[14:48]	Techrights-sec	At the risk of adding too much, should there be links between the days?
[14:48]	Techrights-sec	Or just back up the tree towards the root
[14:48]	Techrights-sec	?
[14:49]	schestowitz__	to avoid overloaded pages we need to work out some pyramid/tree structure for navigation
● Feb 11
[15:03]	schestowitz__	amfora is ime very buggy but all of this is still alpha kludge anyway, so that is forgivable
[15:04]	Techrights-sec	I was thinking it was possible at the bottom, if people scroll that
[15:04]	Techrights-sec	far they are still looking.
[15:04]	schestowitz__	I will move that, I've just added index for ALL the bulletins
[15:12]	schestowitz__	no worries about template (menu, footer etc.), we can do that like 1990s web by appended in bulk passing file by file with some rule for each type of index
[15:17]	schestowitz__	added IRC to main index with subindexes to all file, will repeat for other channel logs
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	IRC ids harder, I am not sure how to autogenerate it.
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	Maybe just link to the existing http
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	The page from the link forwarded in the mail from the registrar
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	lists a few providers for dynamic dns.
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	No-IP seems to be the best on the list, some are to be avoided
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	like DynDNS
[15:25]	Techrights-sec	dynv6 looks ok but I wonder what the ionos guide's warning is about
[15:25]	schestowitz__	imho, we just need to surrogate with gopher links where they exist. links included inside irc logs are http/s.
[15:26]	schestowitz__	but for much of our internal structure we can produce gopher to keep people inside the .... oops!! I mean GEMINI...  browser and away from external programs
[15:27]	Techrights-sec	Oracle should be avoided too.

[16:25]	Techrights-sec	BTW were you able to find the list of the URLs for all the articles on TR?
[16:25]	Techrights-sec	I can just spider the site slowly and build my own list if not.
[16:25]	schestowitz	If I have a list somewhere, it'll def be years out of date, and what matters more are the more recent articles
[16:26]	schestowitz	I wonder, should I soon start adding gemini links along with www in social control media?
[16:27]	Techrights-sec	Not yet, Gemini site still needs work.  Maybe by next week, early./
[16:27]	schestowitz	Yeah, I did not suggest now NOW

[16:32]	Techrights-sec	Plumber was here the other day. It must be a trend.
[16:32]	Techrights-sec	I will start the indexing with Jan and Feb of this year.
[16:33]	schestowitz	you can try that site out, it actually is a working search engine, I've tried
[16:35]	Techrights-sec	I'll take a look a bit later.
[16:35]	Techrights-sec	I'm curious about that but am almost at a stopping point for the day on
[16:35]	Techrights-sec	the scripts.
[16:35]	schestowitz	it's lots of fun, I think it'll pay off in the exercise sense and also reach
[16:40]	Techrights-sec	gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/01/
[16:40]	Techrights-sec	Also tweaked the tet on the top of the Gemini site, if that's ok.

[16:43]	schestowitz	"
[16:43]	schestowitz	i've submitted ours, though it's not truly ready yet but can be indexed soon
[16:45]	schestowitz	yes, the edit of the text ("tet"; took me a while to know what that mean) is good, I just copy pasted a template from the main www site as a placeholder. We need to put latest stories near the top eventually, they're what matters more.
[16:45]	schestowitz	I added to the site index the gopher link, but have not announced this yet
[16:48]	Techrights-sec	The gemini pages still need some work.  Feb is somehow incomplete.  I
[16:48]	Techrights-sec	suspect my link list is the cause.
[16:49]	schestowitz	"I started flinging some one-liners I use into ~bin instead of history | grep things... I think the pipeline is simple for the static texts, we can periodically cp across from the ipfs user account, then regenerate indices. For the blog, directory structure seems consistent

[17:45]	schestowitz	very nice, multi-level indices
[17:48]	schestowitz	very nice how it distinguished with colour and symbol internal and external (www) links
[17:51]	schestowitz	observations: many gemini sites (capsules) I saw are 1) geeks 2) very simple 3) very few of them have tools like translations/games/search 4) they are exceedingly tiny, we can be one of the biggest out there in terms of # of pages/objects
[17:52]	schestowitz	I will check if I can 'flatted' the wiki, its simplified mode isn't plain text but not far from it
[17:53]	Techrights-sec	Thanks.
[17:53]	Techrights-sec	I'm going to try to fetch the missing days from Feb soon.
[17:53]	Techrights-sec	Yes, that symbol is important to avoid 'surprises'
[17:53]	Techrights-sec	I hate hitting a non-Gemini link in amfora.
