[06:01] Techrights-sec http://techrights.org/irc-archives/irc-log-techrights-120121.html#tJan%2012%2014:35:02 [06:01] Techrights-sec log base 10, that is [06:01] Techrights-sec \ [06:01] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-techrights.org | IRC: #techrights @ FreeNode: Tuesday, January 12, 2021 [06:02] 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. [06:06] Techrights-sec Yes, some came through as ASCII graphics, The rest came through as broken [06:06] Techrights-sec unicode. [06:08] *GNUmoon has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [06:16] Techrights-sec I've improved the 'tagging' in the social control media labels script. [06:16] schestowitz__ is that the script associated with daily links? [06:18] Techrights-sec [06:18] Techrights-sec Yes, it will now complain to me if there are tags not in camelCase [06:18] Techrights-sec That helps people with screen readers [06:18] schestowitz__ I hope we can become more text-based a site, over time, seeing the direction the Web has taken.... [06:22] Techrights-sec Yes, this helps very slightly with that. [06:23] schestowitz__ also greatly helps with transporting the site without http and www [06:30] Techrights-sec I suspect that a lot of the problems causing the non-text stuff [06:30] Techrights-sec is about "engagement". It is certainly the opposite of usability [06:30] Techrights-sec and accessibility. [06:30] Techrights-sec One can't even link to content any more, not just because of [06:30] Techrights-sec expanding javascript-produced pages. [06:36] Techrights-sec wasn't there an autumn 2019 post about wasted bandwidth in the web? [06:36] Techrights-sec I am not finding it at all. [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 :/ [06:43] Techrights-sec Wordpress sucks for navigating old articles. :( [06:43] Techrights-sec http://techrights.org/2019/08/10/making-the-web-light/ [06:43] Techrights-sec Found it in /my/ bookmarks, not via the site itself. [06:43] Techrights-sec Searched the site for about 20 minutes. [06:43] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-techrights.org | Techrights Coding Projects: Making the Web Light Again | Techrights [06:45] 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. [06:46] schestowitz__ I've just pasted that into noDNS.txt on the pi, your ~ on the pi ● Jan 13 [07:10] Techrights-sec What's the current IP? [07:10] Techrights-sec I'll make a script soon to automate reporting of the IP, but for now [07:10] Techrights-sec it has changed again. [07:10] Techrights-sec Scan 81.128.0.0/11 for SSH and then match the host key? [07:10] Techrights-sec Thanks [07:10] Techrights-sec There is quite a lot of lag, btw [07:10] schestowitz__ An engineer comes tomorrow morning to investigate [07:11] Techrights-sec Did BT lose most of its capacity along with Brexit? [07:57] schestowitz__ thought: worth making tuxmachines text, then ipfs, like techrights? ● Jan 13 [08:57] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes ● Jan 13 [09:11] Techrights-sec Yes, TM on IPFS might be useful. [09:11] Techrights-sec But it mighe be good to wait for more experience with TR first, [09:11] Techrights-sec unless there is a learning advantage to doing both at the same time. [09:12] 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). [09:17] schestowitz__ Oh, another aspect is, it seems unlikely that TM will be subjected to takedown or censorship of any kind [09:17] schestowitz__ ...And TR Daily Links and bulletin already contain most of not all the stuff that's posted in TM ● Jan 13 [10:13] Techrights-sec So it's probably not yet worth the efforts for TM, though it could [10:13] Techrights-sec be sometime after the CMS change. ● Jan 13 [11:40] schestowitz__ x https://www.worldipreview.com/news/delhi-court-will-hear-scientists-views-on-sci-hub-20559 [11:40] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.worldipreview.com | Delhi court will hear scientists views on Sci-Hub ● Jan 13 [16:20] *GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [16:21] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes [16:25] *GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [16:26] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes ● Jan 13 [17:56] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [17:56] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) ● Jan 13 [18:16] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [18:17] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [18:56] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [18:56] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) ● Jan 13 [19:03] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [19:03] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [19:33] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [19:33] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [19:55] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [19:55] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes ● Jan 13 [20:09] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [20:10] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) ● Jan 13 [21:13] *GNUmoon has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) ● Jan 13 [22:08] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes [22:09] *GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [22:14] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes [22:19] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [22:19] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [22:29] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [22:30] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [22:30] *GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [22:31] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes ● Jan 13 [23:09] *GNUmoon has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [23:09] *GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon) has joined #techbytes [23:36] *rianne (~rianne@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [23:36] *liberty_box (~liberty@host81-152-238-28.range81-152.btcentralplus.com) has joined #techbytes [23:47] *rianne has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) [23:47] *liberty_box has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)
