08:03 schestowitz-TR2; gm
08:03 schestowitz-TR2; is there work on the server?
08:03 schestowitz-TR2; it says things like connection was lost
08:03 schestowitz-TR2; and then somr recent files (pages) are missing
08:03 schestowitz-TR2; just a minute agomaybe MQTT is timing out? not sure..
08:11 Techrights-sec; gm
08:11 Techrights-sec; not at the moment / not for a while
08:11 Techrights-sec; checking
08:11 Techrights-sec; At least one cert needs updating for MQTT, I must have fat-fingered the date
08:11 Techrights-sec; Correct.
08:11 Techrights-sec; Cehcking
08:11 Techrights-sec; :(
08:11 Techrights-sec; MQTT is only used for notification and shouldn't block anything AFAIK
08:11 schestowitz-TR2; I think the mqtt agent has just alrted me about connection issues for git, too
08:11 schestowitz-TR2; the funny thing is that this impacts page generation, too :D
08:24 schestowitz-TR2; I've just scrolled up again, seems at first one page was missing and then another page was missing, but the other was OK
08:24 schestowitz-TR2; the pages are fine in gemini though
08:27 schestowitz-TR2; checking more, seems maybe the temp files/dirs were at fault
08:27 schestowitz-TR2; but that all started to happen after the MQTT issue
08:29 chunky; i wanna suck off a guy
08:33 schestowitz-TR2; trolling here, too?
08:38 Techrights-sec; How long should the client certs be good for? The last batch were set
08:38 Techrights-sec; to expire yesterday, which was fine for a test period but the next batch
08:38 Techrights-sec; of client certificates should be for longer.
08:38 schestowitz-TR2; maybe 3 years? don't know...
08:39 Techrights-sec; Ok
08:39 Techrights-sec; I'm just concerned that if they are open-ended they can get loose.
08:39 Techrights-sec; However, if they expire frequently, it is a big pain.
08:39 Techrights-sec; Yet, if they expire infrequently, it might be harder to deal with, maybe
08:39 Techrights-sec; even forgetting the situation / notes completely by then.
08:43 schestowitz__[TR]; atm the only missing page, which updating does not re-create, is http://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2022-08-31T06:58/Games_Victoria_3_Steam_Deck_Necrosmith_and_Morwe.shtml
08:43 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell- ( status 404 @ http://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2022-08-31T06:58/Games_Victoria_3_Steam_Deck_Necrosmith_and_Morwe.shtml )
08:44 schestowitz-TR2; you can see from the URL what goes wrong or went wrong
08:44 schestowitz-TR2; the date part
08:46 schestowitz-TR2; oh, I see, the correct page too links to a bad today's howto URL
08:46 schestowitz-TR2; so my guess is, new pages are created which create wrong navigation links
08:52 Techrights-sec; checking the links first now
08:52 Techrights-sec; The generator should have produced a better error when I ran the test :/
08:52 schestowitz-TR2; gym biab
09:15 *starstreak has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)
09:33 Techrights-sec; ack
09:33 Techrights-sec; Ok the date error is fixed.
09:33 Techrights-sec; Thanks for spotting it and sorry it slipped through the tests here.
09:33 Techrights-sec; Looking at OpenSSL in a bit
09:35 schestowitz-TR2; back now
09:35 schestowitz-TR2; thanks for correcting the bug!
09:35 schestowitz-TR2; i spent about 3 hours last night trying to improve frontpage mockup (and mobile)
09:35 schestowitz-TR2; the one running on tuxmachines-old
09:38 schestowitz-TR2; rianne's exam is this afternoon
09:38 schestowitz-TR2; meanwhile I took note of things to do today, it seems like very slow news, rianne is suprised by this and we checked if there's some US holiday
09:38 schestowitz-TR2; *surprosed
09:38 schestowitz-TR2; tuxmachines still yields about 50 pages/day, the granularity changes a bit
09:45 Techrights-sec; Again, I hope she does very well on the exam.
09:45 Techrights-sec; I agree the news has slowed down again quite a bit. For quite a few years now,
09:45 Techrights-sec; it never bounes back from holidays of any kind. Now with the end of summer in
09:45 Techrights-sec; the northern hemisphere, it has gone down even further. Perhaps the budgets for
09:45 Techrights-sec; the autumn have been cut again.
09:46 schestowitz-TR2; I wrote 4 or 5 posts about LF yesterday
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; I hope you saw them
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; one mentions the fate of linux.com
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; based on IRS files from the year all people got fired except maybe spamnil
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; and sheela "left"
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; as I expected
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; I only found out because I checked to see if jimbo still claims to speak "Japanese"
09:47 schestowitz-TR2; he is walking on glass, maybe he will also delete all his linkedin posts next
09:47 Techrights-sec; Yes, I saw. Perhaps there is only a shell left.
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; meanwhile the guy they hired to run linux.com has been mia for a month
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; and i expect 2021 had further decreases in revenue
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; to the point where such salaries are untenable
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; they pay many sites like itsfoss and fofssofrce to shill the diploma mills
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; zdenet also
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; itsfoss even post this shit to tm
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; i unpublished it immediately
09:49 schestowitz-TR2; we have a "no spam/scam" policy
09:59 Techrights-sec; ack
10:07 schestowitz-TR2; in the past 4 items in TM RSS feed you can see the funny chars where slanted quotes were (in HTML)
10:07 schestowitz-TR2; maybe a filter for charset is needed for shlomi fish's module in order for it to cope with incompatibilities in data passage
10:07 schestowitz-TR2; aside from that, in git the part that says atm needs changing to rss to better inform the client/browser that it is RSS/RDF
10:07 schestowitz-TR2; that links to "purl" -- I assume he maintains some other specs/schema that may change over time
10:07 schestowitz-TR2; I remember that when the netscape site got "renovated" it broke a lot of things to many people
10:16 Techrights-sec; ack
10:19 schestowitz__[TR]; http://tuxmachines.org/ frontpage.php
10:19 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-news.tuxmachines.org | Tux Machines
10:19 schestowitz__[TR]; just a mockup for now
10:19 schestowitz__[TR]; remove spaces
10:20 schestowitz__[TR]; now a real url except for test
10:20 schestowitz__[TR]; i use php to separate updates from new items
10:20 schestowitz__[TR]; the mobile mockup is less busy
10:20 schestowitz__[TR]; it's in git, both of them
10:21 schestowitz-TR2; *not a "real" url
10:23 schestowitz-TR2; TM would be best off focusing on the DATA, not www. gemini, mqtt, rss, atom, rss-generated pages (more so than the old site, which also did this to an extent)
10:23 schestowitz-TR2; so it is about the content rather than presentation, with some sorts of apis and hooks
10:30 Techrights-sec; ack
10:46 Techrights-sec; ok check the feed now, it should be ok even with & and stuff like smartquotes
10:46 Techrights-sec; The data in the database is ok; With the exception of the date format today,
10:46 Techrights-sec; the problem has been extracting it in light of the quirks of various modules.
10:46 Techrights-sec; and standards.
10:46 schestowitz-TR2; fixed :) :)
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; rianne has just 'complained' again that there is "zero news" in her feeds
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; I asked if literally zero (technical issues)
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; she said, no
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; just totally nothing interesting
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; so we'll need to dive deep and get creative today
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; this is the second day in a row she says that
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; and marius is not publishing much either
11:02 schestowitz-TR2; phoronix is running AMD brochures and picking totally meaningless commits to comment on
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; people still work
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; developers still develop
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; news is happening
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; stuff happens
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; the issue is, not many are left to report on it
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; so this is an investment problem
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; there could be 10,000 articles about EPO in "the mews" or "media" this past decade
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; this past year the number was like one dozen
11:04 schestowitz-TR2; mostly paid-for puff pieces like EIA

12:01 schestowitz-TR2; I entered title into date
12:01 schestowitz-TR2; it corrected me with 20220831T10:19
12:01 schestowitz-TR2; not 2022-08-31T10:18
12:01 schestowitz-TR2; I didn't tamper or manualyl enter a date
12:01 schestowitz-TR2; it was suggested to me and I pressed ENTER
12:01 schestowitz-TR2; as I did many times before
12:02 Techrights-sec; thanks, checking
12:02 Techrights-sec; I'm not sure how that one occured since the one a few minute earlier had
12:02 Techrights-sec; been ok. yes
12:02 Techrights-sec; Oh! The date was entered manually?
12:02 Techrights-sec; I forgot that was there. I suppose we should leave it but better date validation is needed there in the add script.
12:05 Techrights-sec; oh, I'll fix that
12:05 Techrights-sec; interesting
12:06 schestowitz-TR2; I edited the latst page to enter a correct title
12:06 schestowitz-TR2; it did create ther page again, the script hangs after Ceating static... hierarchies
12:10 Techrights-sec; thanks for spotting that
12:10 Techrights-sec; can you try the same process now?
12:10 Techrights-sec; thanks again for spotti
12:10 Techrights-sec; thanks for spotting that
12:10 Techrights-sec; can you try the same process now?
12:10 Techrights-sec; thanks again for spotting that
12:10 Techrights-sec; ng that

12:11 Techrights-sec; thanks again for spotting that
12:11 schestowitz-TR2; lovely. Worked perfectly this time around
12:11 schestowitz-TR2; I will add 3 pages in a row now
12:11 schestowitz-TR2; been cuffering them
12:11 schestowitz-TR2; that'll help validate any new changes

14:23 schestowitz-TR2; messing about some more with frontpage.php
14:23 schestowitz-TR2; the one missing image is due to a filename with a space in it, causing problems for xargs
14:23 schestowitz-TR2; if I download such files I really should rename them
14:37 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #boycottnovell

15:09 Techrights-sec; have null-delimitd output for xargs
15:11 schestowitz-TR2; yes, but the problem in this case was different
15:11 schestowitz-TR2; atm it is a cronjob under "roy"
15:11 schestowitz-TR2; ot: I foolishly forgot that ddos protection swaps htaccess files
15:11 schestowitz-TR2; so I zapped all the redictions this morning when I ran ddos protection (needed to)
15:11 schestowitz-TR2; but no big deal, I still have the script I made for these rules and I need to improve these redictions anyway
15:11 schestowitz-TR2; then I need to deposit these changes aside, didn't forsee the file being ovewritten
15:18 Techrights-sec; ack
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; ok, I've tested all the "missing" pages and they redirect OK to static
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; the "old" site still does about 3 hits/sec
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; it's a very old site
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; some of that traffic is bots
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; reminds me we need more navigation to reach old pages
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; and now everything is there, with 2 months' nodes all going to the new site OK
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; I've added a broader wilfcord for the RSS feed
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; *wildcard
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; so anything that looks like feed request goes to the active feed
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; now, regarding front page, or anything near top level, I want to do some more work before planting the php file
15:24 schestowitz-TR2; maybe tuxmachines.org/index to make it consistent with techrights?
15:27 Techrights-sec; ack
15:27 Techrights-sec; with the actual PHP parts removed I hope ...
15:27 Techrights-sec; Though biased, I prefer the simpler layout a lot and would like to avoid
15:27 Techrights-sec; geocitiesing it up too much. Maybe a page below the main page could have
15:27 Techrights-sec; more options and details. Also, it is (IMO) important to try to keep it
15:27 Techrights-sec; so that visually it reminds of the old layout.
15:27 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #boycottnovell
15:29 schestowitz-TR2; I've just noticed that the new rss feed does not, unlike before, have author shown
15:29 schestowitz-TR2; this is not really a problem, just a difference
15:29 schestowitz-TR2; the php file would go on the old server, being a sort of umbrella
15:38 Techrights-sec; RSS 2, or at least the W3C validator, requires an e-mail address for author
15:38 Techrights-sec; instead of a name. I can set it so it does publish author but then it won't
15:38 Techrights-sec; validate.
15:38 Techrights-sec; https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification
15:38 Techrights-sec; https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#ltauthorgtSubelementOfLtitemgt

15:38 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.rssboard.org | RSS 2.0 Specification (version 2.0.11)
15:38 Techrights-sec; The spec seems to say specifically as an e-mail address. I think that's
15:38 Techrights-sec; a stupid decision on their part. Another option might be to use the
15:38 Techrights-sec; Dublin Core namespace and put the string in dc.creator or dc.contributor
15:38 Techrights-sec; However, even though the spec supports it, the module's support of
15:38 Techrights-sec; namespaces is in question still.
15:40 schestowitz-TR2; very interesting, I did not know that and it does sound dumb
15:40 schestowitz-TR2; comparing to RSS at TR....
15:40 schestowitz-TR2; techrights uses <dc:creator>

15:48 Techrights-sec;
15:48 Techrights-sec; namespaces is in question still.
15:48 Techrights-sec; Yes, the question is how to shoehorn it into the RSS 2.0 object as managed
15:48 Techrights-sec; by the XML::RSS module.
15:50 schestowitz-TR2; if it cannot be done easily, doesn't matter much
15:50 schestowitz-TR2; it's just somsething I happened to notice are rectifying the absent redirects
15:50 schestowitz-TR2; which maybe lasted about3 hours (before I noticed due to netsurf throwing a warning)
15:50 schestowitz-TR2; I'm going to back up .htaccess and also put it in the ddos protection thing, which is rarely
15:50 schestowitz-TR2; needed anymore because the load of the site is lower
16:07 schestowitz-TR2; ok, .htaccess.normal is now same as .htaccess
16:07 schestowitz-TR2; so it won't wipe wha's there
16:07 schestowitz-TR2; also, I made another copy of iut
16:07 schestowitz-TR2; will do a few sanity checks, then get some rest
16:07 schestowitz-TR2; rianne will be back soon (no results today)
16:16 Techrights-sec; I hope the test went well today.
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; decided to stay up until afetr she arrives/returns
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; impolite to be in bed when she has news
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; I've just posted two things about today's covid-19 numbers
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; I'll try to think how to better expand TM "content" to more protocols etc.
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; the www is not doing well
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; I grew up with the web
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; it won't die overnight
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; but it's impossible to dent it is langusishing and moreover it seems clear that even the "giants" are a lot of bots
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; spwmnil's youtube channel is llike 9% vclickbots now
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; and youtube exec resigns, twitter fights a wber ands musk
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; fb down from almost 400 dollars to 150... and it deserves to be no more than $40
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; waiting until the ship drowns is deja vu
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; also wishful thinking
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; it's like developing olpc xo in 2022
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; or clinging onto TDE, trinity
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; *95% clickbots I meant
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; not 9
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; big typo
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; he's probably not alone, but it takes work to be able to prove it
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; gulag has long sold adsense to companies that just saw their credits falling with no traffic or sales
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; FB does the same
16:51 Techrights-sec; ack
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; the "adtech" industry is mostly a fraud
16:51 schestowitz-TR2; many now fold
16:51 Techrights-sec; ack
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; Th difference bwteen all those botfarms and clickfarms is how they market it or lie to shareholders
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; IMHO
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; sure, some have more traffic (or both) than others
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; but all of them seem to be lying to shareholders by an order of magnitude at times
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; I'm very sure youtube loses money
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; same for azure and other things
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; depending on what they actually want to count to mislead you
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; github is a massive loss
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; but they perceive the power it gives them as something they can one day "cash in " on
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; each time they try to piss people off
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; we live in a world full of bakkt
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; but nobody is daring enough to shout from the crowd that the emperor of "naked"
16:56 schestowitz-TR2; *is
17:08 schestowitz-TR2; Mary Jo Foley has just written a BS piece trying to blame "Ubuntu" for Azure (Microsoft) issues
17:12 Techrights-sec; Not a surprise. Azure is full of security holes, in addition to unreasonably
17:12 Techrights-sec; high operating costs and poor performance. They'll continue their decades long
17:12 Techrights-sec; tactic of blaming "Linux people" for all their problems
17:12 Techrights-sec; For a while that was their go-to excuse for getting cracked or defaced.
17:22 schestowitz-TR2; I've just quoted you in TM about mj foley
17:23 Techrights-sec; ack
17:23 Techrights-sec; I wouldn't consider myself an authority on anything though, just some noise here
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; Microsoft is never at fault
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; it's the users
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; the crackers
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; the media
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; etc etc.
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; nation states
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; third parties
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; old devices with "bad" drivers
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; that Microsoft won't support
17:25 schestowitz-TR2; opr brok
17:26 schestowitz-TR2; there used to be a joke about "google 'microsoft blames'"
17:26 Techrights-sec; not to mention there was an intractable dependency hell for all Windows drivers
17:26 Techrights-sec; There was no apparent versioning and newer programs could overwrite existing
17:26 Techrights-sec; drivers with /older/ versions, causing huge problems.
17:31 Techrights-sec; Any amount of money to buy name-dropping used to be a firing offence.
17:42 Techrights-sec; checking
17:42 Techrights-sec; not finding Devuan there but there was a link to /another/ M$ Azure outage
17:42 psydruid; "Microsoft Azure has no layoffs" "Bloomberg says it's only 1%" "All Windows is unstable? Even at people's homes and in businesses?"
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; this was mrntioned in a headline in Daily Links and a long batch in TM eysterday
17:42 psydruid; You have to have an innate ability to be a liar if you are a Microsoft apologist
17:42 schestowitz-TR2; psydruid: maybe Dina Bss
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; Microsoft's mole in there
17:43 schestowitz-TR2; *Bass
17:43 psydruid; I called them out on it
17:43 psydruid; Downvoted to oblivion and character assassination
17:44 psydruid; And everything I wrote is wrong, of course
17:45 psydruid; I don't know how countries and businesses in them even consider Microsoft in any way suitable to run their operations
17:45 Techrights-sec; MX Linux ships with systemd :/
17:45 Techrights-sec; it is not a viable substitute for Devuan
17:45 Techrights-sec; Their page also lies about the nature of systemd, incorrectly describing it
17:45 Techrights-sec; as an init system.
17:45 Techrights-sec; ^MX
17:46 schestowitz-TR2; psydruid: join the club
17:46 schestowitz-TR2; been on this boat since a student
17:50 schestowitz-TR2; psydruid: they can isdolate and intimidate few
17:50 schestowitz-TR2; to keep the rest silent
17:50 schestowitz-TR2; but if enough of us speak out, they will run away
17:51 schestowitz-TR2; or if you present strong proof
17:51 schestowitz-TR2; like police files
17:51 schestowitz-TR2; or IRS material
17:51 schestowitz-TR2; then they start name-calling like "you're crazy"
17:51 schestowitz-TR2; "you are hateful"..
17:51 schestowitz-TR2; and mjg59_ will claim in shitter.com that you support something rape...
17:52 schestowitz-TR2; "everyone!!! don't listen to him, he's obviously some rapist.."
17:57 schestowitz-TR2; rianne celebrated in a number of ay
17:57 schestowitz-TR2; the exam was a breeze and ended early
17:57 schestowitz-TR2; she was last for the day
17:57 schestowitz-TR2; the next exam is even easier and she might get perfect score (like in some mockups)
17:57 schestowitz-TR2; she doesn't need gsoc/outreachy and crap like this, she is naturally smart
17:57 schestowitz-TR2; *not mockups, mock exams
18:00 Techrights-sec; Nice
18:01 schestowitz-TR2; bbiab
18:01 schestowitz-TR2; break
18:01 schestowitz-TR2; happy here

23:54 schestowitz-TR2; tuxmachines has about 200 rss feeds
23:54 schestowitz-TR2; for forums, blogs, topics...
23:54 schestowitz-TR2; I've just redirected all those feeds to the active feed
23:54 schestowitz-TR2; as all those old feeds are basically stale and won't yield anything
23:54 schestowitz-TR2; in the url structure you can see the referring url request after ?
