mircea_popescu: well, you're vulnerable
to comment flood and
to harvester/spammer pairs, but otherwise should be ok.
ben_vulpes: also *zero* clue of what
to do
to avoid dushensking
the instance
ben_vulpes: maybe? vaguely concerned
that
the
thing is subtly broken in other ways not immediately apparent.
ben_vulpes: 3) i excised a
tril_ from wp-comments.php, replacing it with my db prefix
ben_vulpes: 2) i added
the suffix generation routine
to
the
template page, and appended
the suffix
to
the relevant form names.
mircea_popescu: well... in
the sense
that it doesn't check anymore, yes.
ben_vulpes: that fixed
the comment processor complaining about stale pages or whatever
ben_vulpes: 1) i commented out
the line in wp-comments
that checks for
the delta between now and
the comment
time being greater
than or less
than
two magic numbers.
mircea_popescu: now
then. what are you
trying
to get and what did you do for it ?
mircea_popescu: explain yourself vaguely and convolutedly now, maybe
that's more practical in your present state of intoxication!
ben_vulpes: and specifically, commented out
the line starting with if (((time ...
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i pulled out
the "comment_checks"
ben_vulpes: phf, shinohai,
trinque, asciilifeform, mircea_popescu: i elected
to nuke
the "stale comments"
thing, i'd be much obliged if any of y'all have a patch for
that. in exchange i've got a patch on wp-comments.php for
the suffix
trick, not
that it's hard or anything
☟︎ ben_vulpes: not
to mention
that
the left cooked
the diebold narrative
to begin with.
ben_vulpes: and if anyone could exclude diebold and friends from
the party it'd be him
☟︎ ben_vulpes: oh man if he can
throw
the vote
tracking systems into chaos...
mod6: he probably reads
the logs.
mircea_popescu: and prove for
the nth
time
that... a) nobody reads
the "mainstream" media so no possibility of competing in
the direct and b)
they have no money anyway, nor any interest in any form of reality, so
they can't buy anything from you anyway.
mircea_popescu: once
they stop being poor maybe
they can afford hiring actual experts.
mircea_popescu: the irony being
that
they entirely miss
the mistakes. but whatever,
a111: Logged on 2016-07-06 00:54 mircea_popescu: and you've got A LOT of
things built in, not just "antispam". you got admin hardening ; gpg comments ; auto-spam
tagging, ddos protection, anti-trackback flood and etc.
mircea_popescu: heck, saudi fortunes seem i ntreouble.
the us moved
to vacuuming up far east private fortunes recently.
mircea_popescu: iirc
the last
time you used
the symbol it got challenged into meaninglessness.
mircea_popescu: not clear what heir could have done, other
than you know, gaddafi all over himself.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if you read
the
thing you're bound
to recognize
the by-now standard and documented playbook.
mod6: <+mod6> as soon as
there is a non-us wot-enabled btc provider... i might
think about a bare metal
thing for
this. << i may not wait for
this... i dunno, will have
to see.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, nannerl o keohane, at
the
time duke head, is certainly a fine example of lizard dome architect.
mod6: as soon as
there is a non-us wot-enabled btc provider... i might
think about a bare metal
thing for
this.
mod6: asciilifeform: it's a
test env
mod6: i keep forgetting
that. my bad.
mircea_popescu: the various
things
the woman wanted financed got defunded "for perpetuating
the Duke family history of personal passions and conspicuous consumption". and well...
this being in 2004 i imagine
the money is by now well spent by
the usg.
mod6: how did
this work before i wonder lol?
mircea_popescu: so doris duke was
this rando slut inheriting some decent chunk of change from
the guy who owned lucky strike. she did all sorts of
things, including funding duke university.
then she died and left a will, naming her butler as executioner, leaving duke 10mn and stipulating
that anyone contesting
the will is
to get nothing.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, as we were discussing probate lulz in
the us recently :
mod6: asciilifeform: is nsa's
trb down?
mircea_popescu: i've been kinda waiting for
the proper greek drama of "hitler as
the executor of his own demise
through countering his allies' enmity as best he can"
mircea_popescu: anyway.
there's a deep reason hitler "beloved bayern". it's complicated, all
this flow, but in
the end -
the "treuloser Feinglinge" version of
the dolchstoss libel, while factually unsubstantiated, is entirely comprehensible historically.
mircea_popescu: or sit around and smoke and meditate.
the "absconse scottish lord" figure in british literature very much
typifies
the
trope.
mircea_popescu: "russian aristocracy" would have paraded nude with a bone-done hairdo, if it came
to it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well, depends which set of magazines made it across
the overflowing rivers
that spring, you know.
mircea_popescu: classification is obviously a function of classifier's patience. "all butterflies are moths and
that's good enough for a day's work."
mircea_popescu: there's at least
the french sensationalism and
the nordic solipsism variants.
mircea_popescu: eh, "degenerate russian aristocrats" is simply french wanna-be ism. nothing russian
there.
