[08:36] techrigthssec IRC logs have duplicate lines

[08:36] schestowitz-TR yes, i have corrected for the next day

[08:36] schestowitz-TR did a lorof testing too

[08:51] techrigthssec It turns out that the lines really are duplicares, so it may be that piping

[08:51] techrigthssec the files through uniq will solve that.

[08:54] schestowitz-TR yeah, this is solved going forward

[08:54] schestowitz-TR ijust searched for any copies ofsuppmmentary shell script on bubi

[08:54] schestowitz-TR maybe we can make thesame but more comprehesive?

[08:54] schestowitz-TR i am not too sad about it because the main good feed there rhat i did not

[09:40] schestowitz-TR from a file

[10:01] schestowitz-TR ryan just wrote about cnet getting caught spewing out hey hi garbage as articles

[10:01] schestowitz-TR i think the www will leave people fatigued and cynical

[10:01] schestowitz-TR either way, i am happy to have this new drive

[10:01] schestowitz-TR maybe this lapto can last 5 years now

[10:01] schestowitz-TR newer distro too

[10:01] schestowitz-TR i still need to adjust it

[10:01] schestowitz-TR took my sister a week to adapt after debian 0 to 11 shock

[10:01] schestowitz-TR i cannot find any way to install synergy so fat

[10:01] schestowitz-TR (far

[10:01] schestowitz-TR the company wants money

[10:01] schestowitz-TR but i have contingencies

[10:02] techrigthssec I would have thought that Devuan would be a good choice.

[10:02] techrigthssec Barrier is the FOSS equivalent to Synergy iirc

[10:02] schestowitz-TR i used both in tabdem

[10:02] schestowitz-TR it was hard to configure this week

[10:02] schestowitz-TR and i forgot how i did it

[10:09] techrigthssec I generally keep hard-to-figure-out configuration examples in notes for later

[10:12] schestowitz-TR i think i'd like to think laterally for a bit how to better assess ad survey news over rss

[10:12] schestowitz-TR i have been doing the same thing for 20 years

[10:12] schestowitz-TR there must be a better way then rssown, thunderbird, and quiterss

[10:12] schestowitz-TR for instance, clustering of related theme

[10:12] schestowitz-TR more efficiency means broader coverage, faster

[10:12] schestowitz-TR each time i rebuild it gives a change to start afresh with another approach/focus

[10:12] schestowitz-TR i've not yet restored quiterss, only installed it

[10:15] techrigthssec I generally keep hard-to-figure-out configuration examples in notes for later

[10:15] techrigthssec One way would be to read the OPML file into a database and then use the

[10:15] techrigthssec database to fetch the feeds which are ready for fetching and create an HTML

[10:15] techrigthssec file of the results to browse. The advantage is that the real browsers are

[10:15] techrigthssec much better suited for browsing than QuiteRSS and its competitors are. The

[10:15] techrigthssec biggest down side is that no browsers allow markign a link as "unread".

[10:15] techrigthssec Doing it in Perl would be relatively easy and quite good qualitu but for

[10:15] techrigthssec political purposes Python3 would be a more strategic option since certain

[10:15] techrigthssec communities are investing in Python training.

[10:15] schestowitz-TR in 2005 ish [h]omerfrom cols/usenet, who slaso started our irc channel in freenode, developed

[10:15] schestowitz-TR a parser in python for rss feeds, for usenet

[10:15] schestowitz-TR but it didn't go far, it did not do anything too witty

[10:16] techrigthssec The OPML input is easy, and there seem to be good XML parsers for Python3

[10:16] techrigthssec but the examples provided in the documentation are simmplistic to the point\

[10:16] techrigthssec of being almost irrelevant

[10:21] schestowitz-TR good

[10:21] schestowitz-TR to put it one way, next 5 days might be slow/catching up

[10:21] schestowitz-TR but i expect the next 5 years to be good and productive

[10:21] schestowitz-TR with so many hours freed up and proper sleep

[10:21] schestowitz-TR i want to work on processing of information

[10:21] schestowitz-TR this can also be done for geminispace

[10:21] schestowitz-TR at a much smaller scale

[10:21] schestowitz-TR the core issue many have is,

[10:21] schestowitz-TR too much 'information'

[10:21] schestowitz-TR with so littke signal

[10:21] schestowitz-TR sites that parrot PR

[10:21] schestowitz-TR sometimes varghese does this too (again)

[10:21] schestowitz-TR i am going to move all video making to obs studio and alter preview.sh to do the metadata right

[10:22] schestowitz-TR i have worked to make the pipeline less dependent on one physical machine

[10:23] schestowitz-TR 8 machines here are always turned on with undertilised CPUs/capacity

[10:23] schestowitz-TR we get fibre this coming week, this time they do is PROPERLT

[10:23] schestowitz-TR not experimental like summer 2021

[10:24] techrigthssec How fast fibre will it be? If there is a price difference for faster there

[10:24] techrigthssec is not much point in going over 100Mb/s because nearly every web server

[10:24] techrigthssec is sluggish and the pages they serve clogged with remote objects and scripts

[10:24] techrigthssec to ensure that the page does not render faster than 15 seconds any way

[10:24] schestowitz-TR exactly

[10:24] schestowitz-TR i told them that

[10:43] schestowitz-TR that is the equivalent of my unis and clients that get 128 core machines

[10:43] schestowitz-TR that are like... idle 80% of the time

[10:43] schestowitz-TR so the capacity only helps bursts

[12:35] schestowitz-TR thanks, it is ok now

[12:38] techrigthssec Great. Sorry about the disturbance

[12:38] techrigthssec links like for login or registration have been deactivated.

[12:39] techrigthssec Which do not?

[12:40] schestowitz-TR individual pages of the posts for example

[13:05] techrigthssec It'll need to be tuned properly since it will turn on in its current

[13:05] techrigthssec incarnation (or whatever is saved) at next reboot

[13:24] techrigthssec The Apache2 logs have not been rotating, there seem to have been double

[13:24] techrigthssec configurations there for logrotate.d

[13:24] techrigthssec Checking

[13:24] techrigthssec There is an error in ssl.conf for apache2

[13:24] techrigthssec The file itself was in the way because the main configuration file covers TLS

[13:24] techrigthssec nowadays.

[13:24] techrigthssec It was from 17 jan. I wonder if apk packaging does that with the updates?

[13:24] techrigthssec I sure hope not.

[13:24] schestowitz-TR rotstion of the access logs almost never worked

[13:24] schestowitz-TR since august

[13:31] techrigthssec Ok. Log rotation /should/ work now. I just checked via the daily shell script

[13:31] techrigthssec The defective SSL file has been moved out of the way, but there is a small

[13:31] techrigthssec question about the Certificate since it generates a warning.

[13:31] techrigthssec """

[13:31] techrigthssec server certificate is a CA certificate (BasicConstraints: CA == TRUE

[13:31] techrigthssec """

[13:31] techrigthssec I wonder if the system updates themselves break the custom rotation rules?

[13:55] techrigthssec Hmm. The blogs should have gone under /old

[13:55] techrigthssec I wonder if it is feasible to try to move them.

[13:55] techrigthssec Probably not since it would require doing modifications to many, many href

[13:55] techrigthssec attributes.

[14:00] schestowitz-TR the keys work for ssh

[14:00] techrigthssec Yes that configuration data goes in ~/.ssh/config

[14:45] schestowitz-TR unfortunately no

[14:54] techrigthssec Can you SSH to tm-new as 'roy' ?

[14:54] techrigthssec It looks like you can. The same key and such should give you access to Git

[14:54] techrigthssec Ah. Found a bug.

[14:54] techrigthssec Checking...

[14:59] techrigthssec You'll need a proper entry in ~/.ssh/config for news.tuxmachines.org

[14:59] techrigthssec It must include both IdentityFile and IdentityOnly and it would be a good idea

[14:59] techrigthssec if it also includes User too
