09:31 techrightssec; ..
09:31 techrightssec; There's basically no coverage of the OnePlus battery DRM aside from Rossmann's
09:31 techrightssec; one video
09:32 schestowitz-TR2; there i barely any coverage left of anything important
09:32 schestowitz-TR2; so to report you start with vacuum
09:32 schestowitz-TR2; or someone who truts you to tell something
09:32 schestowitz-TR2; which is rare
09:44 techrightssec; It takes more time to dig through blogs and such, too.
09:46 schestowitz-TR2; \checjing,,,
09:46 schestowitz-TR2; i started goin through 10,000-line yext files of html
10:03 schestowitz-TR2; i expects a db, under .cache
10:03 techrightssec; Do you have a working link for the feed for Private Internet Access?
10:03 techrightssec; Glyn Moody posts there from time to time but there is no feed visible nor
10:03 techrightssec; any way to contact PIA, their web form does not work :/

10:17 schestowitz-TR2; re PIA
10:17 schestowitz-TR2; i thought their feed still worked but they rarely post anymore
10:19 techrightssec; PIA posts but the feed is defunct
10:22 schestowitz-TR2; The EPO grants loads of fake European Patents to firms that are not even European. This includes software patents. https://www.unifiedpatents.com/insights/2023/2/8/etri-kaist-video-codec-patent-revoked-by-epo

10:51 techrightssec; \
10:51 techrightssec; A lot of blogs seem to have died off towards the end of last year and the start
10:51 techrightssec; of this year. Hopefully not litterally.
10:51 schestowitz-TR2; yes, hence the change f strategy
10:51 schestowitz-TR2; and hdd crash as an opportunity to bounce back another way
10:51 schestowitz-TR2; yesterrdayi thought pogson had bounced back
10:51 schestowitz-TR2; then i realise it was robert heaton
10:52 schestowitz-TR2; not pogson

11:12 techrightssec; Aral has not blogged in a while, I hope he is still ok
11:12 techrightssec; and just busy with whatever
11:12 techrightssec; There are /so/ many which have not blogged in about half a year but were activce
11:12 techrightssec; for a long time until then.

11:12 techrightssec; Some CMS software has no clue about proper feed generation. :/
11:27 schestowitz-TR2; after i mistakenly tan merge-daily-links i wanted to see if it harmed something
11:27 schestowitz-TR2; so i checked what the script does
11:27 schestowitz-TR2; am i correct that .old is the file before doing a diff with the previous day's file?
11:27 schestowitz-TR2; and that re-running the above script results in the same thing?
11:27 schestowitz-TR2; (btw, the thing i wanted to run was supplementary)
11:27 schestowitz-TR2; the script runs ok now btw, the rss progra
11:28 techrightssec; Excellent
11:28 techrightssec; It's gradually moving towards something useful.

12:09 techrightssec; I would think that it is a worthy topic, just short of external articles.
12:09 techrightssec; It's a kind of DRM but based on serial numbers or something simplified
12:09 techrightssec; The threat is more the intent than the technology behind the threat.
12:10 schestowitz-TR2; worth posting the video about drm in batts as tr post?
12:10 schestowitz-TR2; might raises awareness and be citable larter
12:10 schestowitz-TR2; new forms of drm creeping in
12:10 schestowitz-TR2; not drm per se
12:10 techrightssec; I would think that it is a worthy topic, just short of external articles.
12:10 techrightssec; It's a kind of DRM but based on serial numbers or something simplified
12:10 techrightssec; The threat is more the intent than the technology behind the threat.
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; gonna add it now
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; is it correct the scripti ran by accident just replicates what was already there
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; and compared today to yesterday to cull duoes?
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; *supes
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; *dupes
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; also, as odysee will be offline in a few years
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; is the video short enough to be worth making ogg for or webm for?
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; very little on www lasts even 10 years
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; googlevideo is offline
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; we linked a lot to it when BN was young
12:14 schestowitz-TR2; after feedburner gulag will possible burn blogspot
12:15 schestowitz-TR2; arson because no business model
12:16 techrightssec; The script makes an intitial run when the OPML is loaded. Then if the script
12:16 techrightssec; is run with no options, it fetches only the updated feeds.
12:16 techrightssec; If an OPML file is loaded, it overwrites any settings, There is no caching
12:16 techrightssec; yet either
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; i meant the script in links@tr
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; merge-daily-links
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; i ran it by accident a couple of hours ago
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; btw, ircvery busy today
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; and several channels have a lot more news in them
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; lik a ticker but with interaction and stuff
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; much better than before the hdd crash
12:20 schestowitz-TR2; i also made kde look and behave very nicely
12:20 techrightssec; Oh. That's probably fine but let me check.
12:20 techrightssec; Yes, as long as there is the manual page in ~/Links/tmp/ the merge script
12:20 techrightssec; will just re-run. There is a slight risk of missing some automated feeds
12:20 techrightssec; if the feeds happen to change between runs or individual entries happen to
12:20 techrightssec; age out. If the manual file is missing, then the script should just abort
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; i think i ran it a short time after it had initislly run
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; so should be safe
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; i compared old to current
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; the reason it happened is,
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; 0:40am i lost connection
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; the router rebooted itself
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; i logged back in
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; relied on history(1)
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; the computers here always have about 15 ssh sessions between them
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; hence, major annoyance when connection drops at the mains
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; aside from needing to chase potentially missing irc activity
12:30 schestowitz-TR2; which i've done for 15 years

14:10 techrightssec; Many feeds are not consistent with the standards in regards to their date strings
14:10 techrightssec; Added a fuzzy parser for dates, it kicks in if the official format fails.
14:10 techrightssec; On this activity about 40% of the time has been used by XSL and 30% used by
14:10 techrightssec; Python's date and time structures and the rest by actual scripting.
