[15:52] schestowitz-TR I will add some more entries to tas with more stuff and touch edge cases [15:52] schestowitz-TR most of the readers are rss digestors [15:55] Techrights-sec The bug is with Apache2, the ? will have to be escaped in the links ... [15:57] schestowitz-TR i think it is close to ready provided there are working links in rss feeds [15:57] schestowitz-TR data entry seems to work OK [15:57] schestowitz-TR but the target machine/container is not ready yet [15:57] schestowitz-TR might be useful to have a list of deps for siatuins like D-R [15:58] Techrights-sec The bug is with Apache2, the ? will have to be escaped in the links ... [15:58] Techrights-sec long way from ready but the time is right for more detailed tests [15:58] schestowitz-TR i meant ready to deploy on the machine [15:58] schestowitz-TR but not yet to direct traffic to it ● Jul 15 [16:13] Techrights-sec no it is long from deploymen, maybe a month or two [16:14] schestowitz-TR in a month or two we can have 2000 posts to migrate but that is doable [16:14] schestowitz-TR migrated from old to new to ensure no urls break [16:15] Techrights-sec it's not ready now and it's not ready in the foreseeable future [16:15] Techrights-sec but it is progressing [16:18] Techrights-sec btw hotlinking is not just a fauxpax but dangerous, even to the Tor project [16:18] Techrights-sec I'll have to add a check to choke when it is found [16:18] Techrights-sec storing locally is fine but that's the same as uploading any other image [16:18] Techrights-sec btw hotlinking is not just a fauxpax but dangerous, even to the Tor project [16:18] Techrights-sec I'll have to add a check to choke when it is found [16:18] Techrights-sec storing locally is fine but that's the same as uploading any other image [16:18] schestowitz-TR one easy fix it, [16:18] schestowitz-TR *is [16:18] schestowitz-TR since it's always one url [16:18] schestowitz-TR take the url as an input [16:18] schestowitz-TR like image for post [16:18] schestowitz-TR then wget it, stgore locally [16:18] schestowitz-TR it can be fair use if the image is assopciate with the page we send a lot of traffic to [16:23] Techrights-sec there are several hotlinked images [16:23] Techrights-sec fair use is not the risk with hotlinking. there is the matter of lost or missing [16:23] Techrights-sec images or mischief, especially the latter; [16:23] Techrights-sec I can add in a check to prevent hotlinking so it does not happen accidentally later [16:23] Techrights-sec I'm wondering what kind of work flow to use for the update. I guess the [16:23] Techrights-sec script should accept eithe the verbatim title or the path to the HTML file [16:23] Techrights-sec and then use that to look up the record based on the title; Though title [16:23] Techrights-sec is not necessarily unique [16:23] Techrights-sec yes [16:23] Techrights-sec so maybe path XOR title+date? [16:23] *psydroid2 (~psydroid@memzbmehf99re.irc) has joined #boycottnovell [16:23] schestowitz-TR titles are not unique, e.g. "Android leftovers" [16:23] Techrights-sec or would there be multple duplicates of the title on a single date? [16:25] Techrights-sec right now the database uses slug+date as a unique key [16:28] schestowitz-TR Once again! A week passes and the UK regime of Borisnaro fails to release the weekly report as scheduled for every Thurssay.

[19:09] Techrights-sec I don't have a wide range of screens to test it on. In this day and age [19:09] Techrights-sec a mobile devilce, ideally a "smart"phone, should be used in the [19:09] Techrights-sec design of the layout. [19:09] schestowitz-TR you can make the windows more narroq [19:09] schestowitz-TR many users on "phones" are using chrome [19:11] Techrights-sec [19:11] Techrights-sec yes [19:11] Techrights-sec I've been using Chromium for it lately, hopefully that is close enough since [19:11] Techrights-sec I won't touch Chrome. The layout seems ok for a narrow screen but the right [19:11] Techrights-sec most column doesn't drop down to become another footer even when the screen [19:11] Techrights-sec is too narrow to render it properly. I've forgotten how to do that and will [19:11] Techrights-sec have to look it up, again. [19:11] schestowitz-TR the mobile-friendly version of Techrights front page has it in the inline css [19:12] schestowitz-TR which you wrote [19:12] Techrights-sec I'll look there, too. [19:21] schestowitz-TR larabel again downplaying secure boot, pluton etc. [19:21] schestowitz-TR but then again I broke up with him aleady [19:31] *britney has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [19:35] Techrights-sec it's too bad larabel is apologizing for that, he is already reducing his [19:35] Techrights-sec future income that direction [19:36] schestowitz-TR oh, cool, now it cautioned me to remove hotlinking stuff [19:36] schestowitz-TR I did upon demand and it registered [19:36] schestowitz-TR re larabel, I saw many comments on that post [19:36] schestowitz-TR I'm not sure what audience he aims for [19:36] schestowitz-TR but sjvn is losing many fans, fast [19:36] schestowitz-TR they aim to appease imaginaries (trolls) [19:36] schestowitz-TR to his credit, gardiner has just blaster microsoft for it in a new video [19:36] schestowitz-TR I did not click [19:37] schestowitz-TR seems like the slant is, [19:37] schestowitz-TR microbell is trying to defend his 'boss' (AMD) with the pluton crap [19:37] schestowitz-TR and say, look, it works! [19:38] *britney (~britney@muarsy2vret2q.irc) has joined #boycottnovell [19:39] Techrights-sec unfortunately so. it reduces his credibility further [19:40] schestowitz-TR like with ooxml and uefi in 2014 [19:40] schestowitz-TR "look, regulators, nothiing to see here, it's fine... look at Gulag instead" [19:46] Techrights-sec yep ● Jul 15 [20:13] schestowitz-TR I added two more nodes [20:13] schestowitz-TR all worked perfectly [20:13] schestowitz-TR and I think I did all "types" of alyouts [20:13] schestowitz-TR there are half a dozen "styles" [20:13] schestowitz-TR the rss feed generated is empty [20:13] schestowitz-TR at one point we can have a public "beta" [20:15] Techrights-sec excellent [20:15] Techrights-sec working with CSS atm, but no progress with it [20:15] Techrights-sec it's working well but the script(s) are slightly buggy in that they [20:15] Techrights-sec insert multiple elements somehow [20:15] Techrights-sec I have to figure out how thats happening [20:16] schestowitz-TR at the "beta" stage having working rss is not crucial [20:16] schestowitz-TR this is the first cms change in almost 20 years [20:16] schestowitz-TR dries is ocvver 40 already [20:16] schestowitz-TR (I saw the CSS changes btw, the current site always had small fonts, dating back to 2004 when 800px screens were still common... same for Techrightd layout in wordpres) [20:18] Techrights-sec fixed the feed.xml [20:18] Techrights-sec noproblem, just point out that it is currently a mockup, possibly one of many [20:18] schestowitz-TR mind if I do a video later showing on the screen some of the prototype? [20:18] schestowitz-TR in the future it might be interesting to look back [20:18] schestowitz-TR yeah, exploratory [20:19] Techrights-sec I'm going to give the CSS a rest for now ● Jul 15 [22:03] schestowitz-TR https://nitter.it/edropple/status/1547933242216419330#m [22:03] -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-Ed (@edropple): "I hadn't thought about the techrights guy for literally a decade.
