schestowitz__sort of, they're not linear and I am still tweaking it. The IRC log script makes just of these. Some IRC clients struggle as well. I might need to tweak a bit.Jan 13 06:02
Techrights-secYes, some came through as ASCII graphics,  The rest came through as brokenJan 13 06:06

Techrights-secI've improved the 'tagging' in the social control media labels script.Jan 13 06:16
schestowitz__is that the script associated with daily links?Jan 13 06:16
Techrights-sec    Jan 13 06:18
Techrights-secYes, it will now complain to me if there are tags not in camelCaseJan 13 06:18
Techrights-secThat helps people with screen readersJan 13 06:18
schestowitz__I hope we can become more text-based a site, over time, seeing the direction the Web has taken....Jan 13 06:18
Techrights-secYes, this helps very slightly with that.Jan 13 06:22
schestowitz__also greatly helps with transporting the site without http and wwwJan 13 06:23
Techrights-secI suspect that a lot of the problems causing the non-text stuffJan 13 06:30
Techrights-secis about "engagement".  It is certainly the opposite of usabilityJan 13 06:30
Techrights-secand accessibility.Jan 13 06:30
Techrights-secOne can't even link to content any more, not just because ofJan 13 06:30
Techrights-secexpanding javascript-produced pages.Jan 13 06:30
Techrights-secwasn't there an autumn 2019 post about wasted bandwidth in the web?Jan 13 06:36
Techrights-secI am not finding it at all.Jan 13 06:36
schestowitz__I remember many such articles, esp. from smaller sites/blogs. BTW, very slow news day. Some Linux sites cover pure hardware news :/Jan 13 06:36
Techrights-secWordpress sucks for navigating old articles. :(Jan 13 06:43
Techrights-sechttp://techrights.org/2019/08/10/making-the-web-light/Jan 13 06:43
Techrights-secFound it in /my/ bookmarks, not via the site itself.Jan 13 06:43
Techrights-secSearched the site for about 20 minutes.Jan 13 06:43

schestowitz__I think it's always important to look ahead, not a year ahead but several years ahead, to remain relevant and avoid Swapnification (50 views per video in a week) or SJVNification. What happens to the Web this past week is a warning or sign of things to come. Next we'll get around DNS... "vz" sent me guides for it.Jan 13 06:45
schestowitz__I've just pasted that into noDNS.txt on the pi, your ~ on the piJan 13 06:46
Techrights-secWhat's the current IP?Jan 13 07:10
Techrights-secI'll make a script soon to automate reporting of the IP, but for nowJan 13 07:10
Techrights-secit has changed again.Jan 13 07:10
Techrights-secScan 81.128.0.0/11 for SSH and then match the host key?Jan 13 07:10
Techrights-secThanksJan 13 07:10
Techrights-secThere is quite a lot of lag, btwJan 13 07:10
schestowitz__An engineer comes tomorrow morning to investigateJan 13 07:10
Techrights-secDid BT lose most of its capacity along with Brexit?Jan 13 07:11
schestowitz__thought: worth making tuxmachines text, then ipfs, like techrights?Jan 13 07:57
*GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytesJan 13 08:57
Techrights-secYes, TM on IPFS might be useful.Jan 13 09:11
Techrights-secBut it mighe be good to wait for more experience with TR first,Jan 13 09:11
Techrights-secunless there is a learning advantage to doing both at the same time.Jan 13 09:11
schestowitz__The thing about TM is, we might change CMS some time in the coming year/years, so I don't want to put too much effort into it. Also, we're talking about 50 or so new CIDs per day, not with original stories, unless we cluster them somehow (and even then the comments on nodes should be swept up as well).Jan 13 09:12
schestowitz__Oh, another aspect is, it seems unlikely that TM will be subjected to takedown or censorship of any kindJan 13 09:17
schestowitz__...And TR Daily Links and bulletin already contain most of not all the stuff that's posted in TMJan 13 09:17
Techrights-secSo it's probably not yet worth the efforts for TM, though it couldJan 13 10:13
Techrights-secbe sometime after the CMS change.Jan 13 10:13
