punkman: right, and nobody has written a blog post about this so far, has been happening for years
mircea_popescu: ...
mircea_popescu: there's something too weird for life here.
mircea_popescu: o da fuck. Expires On October 01, 2015
punkman: polimedia?
mircea_popescu: myeah.
mircea_popescu: "After reviewing your chat transcripts, it appears in the first chat that the Junior Administrator stated specifically what the issue was, which is that the domain is expired as of 8/7/2011. There was also clarification provided that you'd need to contact the registrar directly for the renewal and to update the DNS back to our name-servers."
mircea_popescu: in your link.
mircea_popescu: no fucking wonder's been going on for yearsnobody wrote about it. they'd have to write "umm....lolz"
punkman: so namecheap changed mx record after it expired?
mircea_popescu: myeah
punkman: am disappoint, dns poisoning would've been cool
mircea_popescu: yeah srsly.
asciilifeform: ok wat is this.
punkman: they should have thrown some kind of error though, instead of silently accepting all teh emails
asciilifeform: oh noez zey stole me ciphertext!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that's kinda what was wtfing me, what, i don't paste enough of inbound spam in here or wtf is their problem.
mircea_popescu: punkman im sure they bounced.

assbot: ... ( http://bit.ly/1FUzJv8 )
mircea_popescu: danke.
mircea_popescu: anyway, this is a psa/reminder that in point of fact there is ZERO security wrt email. i, or you, or anyone bored one evening can hijack a mx record, read all teh inbound mail etc.
mircea_popescu: if you imagine email has any sort of security you're nuts.
asciilifeform used to work for an outfit that made millions simply in ensuring that this kind of snafu did not happen, for megacorp clients
asciilifeform: this is also a psa/reminder that enemy may not read pgp message, but can substitute his own for yours! sign the material inside.
mircea_popescu: in other unrelated news, namecheap wants 200 bucks to renew your expired domain
mircea_popescu: they do however have a 27 day grace period on top of the 5 day grace period etc.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is sop
punkman: mircea_popescu: no wai, I just did one the other day for $15
asciilifeform: most of these extortionists have a 'purgatory'
mircea_popescu: yes cuz within the 27 days. they only charged me 8.5 or so

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: resent
mircea_popescu: anyway, the reason this went by unobserved for ~20 hours is that a) internal mail still worked, obviousyl, and b) enom decently adds its record with priority 10. there's a bugfeature apparently where some relayers/dns servers prefer higher priority records even if older.
mircea_popescu: either that or they didn't actually change it until the 3rd.
asciilifeform: it still blows my mind that we're relying on a thing that sits on top of dns.
mircea_popescu: ~relying

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform btw, did i ever tell you i did all the typesetting of that thing myself ?
mircea_popescu: sent files straight to the printer.
asciilifeform: almost like there is some threshold that is crossed (i.e. ~all~ of the comments on an article re: recent oregon 'postal' being such that concern organized mass disarmament) and then they 'ban commentz now!?!!!'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: my understanding is that all self-published items are typeset personally ?
asciilifeform: i mean, how else
asciilifeform: but yes, a thinking man goes and latex
asciilifeform: this is sop.
mircea_popescu: a) the printer can't use latex ; b) self published generally means, PoD and a sharky editor that fleeces the hopeful. this was actually printed on web press, so in this sense everything else printed hence is a lot more "self published" than asylum.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: printer tells you what he eats, then you make latex shit it.
mircea_popescu: it may not be the last web pressed fiction offering in the us, but it won't be far ahead of the last i dun think
asciilifeform: typically the machines are able to eat postscript.
mircea_popescu: aha yep, ps.
asciilifeform: no one eats straight latex, afaik
mircea_popescu: but you know, machine shop ps. postscript-with-quirks.
asciilifeform: well aha, they send you params
mircea_popescu: actually in the early 2000s there was some effort on the part of mfgs to support latex
mircea_popescu: it died with the death of the entire publishing industry (actual publishing, ie, putting ink to paper. not predend publishing, aka editing newspapers etc)
asciilifeform has cases full of various items printed by fully-automated print houses with 'put ps here and money here' wwwtronic vending machine

asciilifeform: 'Dear students! Remember that money can solve anything! Even complicated differential equations.'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i recently popped a crate with 4th ed. stroustrup. it was, to my surprise, proper lay-flat. but the pleasant surprise turned to ick when i saw that it, for no particular reason, had blue as well as black print, and a good fraction of the blue is smudged !

mircea_popescu: yes i briefly considered printing it in green
asciilifeform: at least it clearly wasn't laser-print!
asciilifeform: (laser print does not behave this way)
mircea_popescu: but perhaps it was handprinted.

mod6: ah, no this thing doesn't prompt at all. just command line flags. works a lot like your implementation. no caching, etc.
ascii_field: then great.
mod6: one major difference is i'm using Getopt::Long to control user input -- which ends up altering flags instead of 'w' for wot, ends up being '-w' or '--wot' but I think we can get over that.
ascii_field: why does it demand the - ?
mod6: its just how it determines options from values.
mod6: perhaps later, i could rebuild my own or something.
ascii_field: can't just get argv raw ?
mod6: I actually started with this, but .. it got hairy to control some of the input.
