http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-19#1903447 -> both work and will work; when I started, the only name I could say I won't change was my own, hence dianacoman.com; in time I found a name for the blog too (took a few detours) and that's ossasepia hence ossasepia.com; but I don't expect anyone to go through any trouble and have to change their links either way; I suppose strictly speaking the blog is ossasepia.com so that'd be the cannonical but I'll
☝︎ diana_coman: hm, the end there got clipped; I meant: I'll keep both domains and have redirects in place so all links with either domain work anyway.

deedbot: pehbot voiced for 30 minutes.
pehbot: asciilifeform: EGGOG: WARNING: Short Tape: Tapespace filled to position: 38 of 300.
mircea_popescu: yeah, but that doesn't mean anything in context -- there's a "nimblest dancer" at the retirement home, also.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform imo it's a decent exploration of ye olde negative space. "how would one write gnarl in peh, and how would one automate such, and so on"
mircea_popescu: this is a lot like saying "every knight is welcome to try and tournament".
mircea_popescu had this prepared in his notes, "and then he'll implement jumps, at which point dilemma : either all instructions are single byte, or else all instructions carry double meaning, from whence discussion of ambiguity in language etc".
mircea_popescu: honestly i don't think we've even scratched the surface of what this thing can do.
mircea_popescu: yes, but consider : as a counterpart of the "gnalr contest", which imo is not that bad of an idea even if it flows necessarily from the ~nature~ of the substrate, "only intellectually challenging thing to do in c++ is gnarl, much like only thing to do with mud is mess", one could also resurrect ye olde game of life (remember the mike_c project ?). construct say the tape that has the most interesting downstream (by some ~abstr
mircea_popescu: act~ definition of interesting ; concrete definitions are things like "write a tape to do rsa with".)
mircea_popescu: ie, it's a major abstractive tool -- consider only how it structured "interesting" above.
BingoBoingo: ^ Brenton Tarrant, very effective Turkish Nationalist
mircea_popescu: somehow, magically, i don't expect any "democratic decision factors" being hanged, or even as much as confronted (let alone
admitting) their strict liability for this result.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so the eu can fail rather than thrive. they were "contending for the faith", see.
mircea_popescu: there's this fundamental self-hatred at the basis of "decisions" the schmucky whitebois take. "i shouldn't do well".
mircea_popescu: well, in any case insufficiently impressed by "indignation" and other such vat-relevant devices.
mircea_popescu: Remarks have been made by the Turkish President Erdogan that I consider highly offensive to Australians, and highly reckless in this very sensitive environment, Mr Morrison said.
BingoBoingo: Then there's the whole S-400 versus Patriot Missile air defense decision the USG forced on Turkey and is still trying to do take backsies on.
mircea_popescu: "conviction" of public person / functionary / official in orclands 100% "usg.blue interference" by now.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: And Turkey being supplier of certain F-35 part for euro markets
mircea_popescu: the problem being, of course, usg.blue then gets caught with pants down regularly, and well, such lulz ensue. "you want us to help you save your nukes now ? suck on this cock, dorks."
BingoBoingo: The USG defense industry marketers have been getting right fucked by the Turks since they decided Turkey was good enough to make new things, but not buy old things
mircea_popescu: the warnings to any orcs thinking of following usg.blue's nonsense do pile on : they'll leave you high and dry, yo! wake up an'
smell the coffee.
BingoBoingo: And the Syria situation where NATO member Turkey's allies do not overlap with NATO member USG's allies
BingoBoingo: Last of Red died in Green color revolution
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo nato's practically dead, as a political structure.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo nato's practically dead, as a political structure. << But Brasil wants in now!!!
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo it's a tenous argument that such a thing as "red" even during vietnam era. which is you know, half century wtf.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "sent to die" gimme a break, whole premise of iraq was "nobody dies, nobody even walks the ground. we all sit in mcdonalds and do munch"
mircea_popescu: btw, anyone recall where that trilema article is, which literally says, "if you believe what usg lies to you, you'll end up in impossible committments which they WILL NOT help you pay for. they'll just withdraw leaving you hanging." ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is a distinction without a difference.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no, this is the "manalone dies like he deserves to die, and like all will die"
mircea_popescu: item i have in mind was quite pointedly at functionaries, "judges", assorted sops.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the last time that distinction might've translated a meaningful difference was literally at the ONSET of vietnam war, opposing a very rudimentary "act from causes vs act for effects" dilemma.
mircea_popescu: but i mean at the ~onset~. by the time nixon was involved no such thing as meaningful red spoke publicly.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no, that's for zeks imagining themselves "inside the system".
mircea_popescu: this was for orcs contemplating saying "yes" to the questions that may only be answered with the orlov niet.
mircea_popescu: this is like saying "difference between blue elephant and red elephant is tusk vs trunk".
mircea_popescu: there's absolutely no difference, pantsuited hilarity's hilarious claim to manhood was "being in the situation room"
BingoBoingo: USG.Red is a subdivision of USG.Blue that exists in the hallucinations of its members, that there is/was a great relevant to them and they can have have it again.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am happy with his timeline : item that was last seen alive cca 1955, was finally buried with clinton's putsch in 90s.
mircea_popescu: one could be excused from believing corpse "is merely sleeping", but not past burial.
mircea_popescu: and at the time of burial, it becomes evident corpse was older than the very instant of coffin lowering.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Local wizard fucking with traffic at the intersection of General Artigas y General Rivera
mircea_popescu: nope. the grunt no longer exists, and ~hasn't~, other than in pretense, since vietnam.
mircea_popescu: i can also distinguish skateboarders such as curt cobain was a kiddy amongst, from retarded ben stiller carrying around a skateboard while dressed in a lumberjack costume.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-01 22:36 asciilifeform at one time did work that put'im in contact with these folx. met a d00d who, convincingly, described playing 'call of duty: iraq' on... lappy, in actual iraq
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> nope. the grunt no longer exists, and ~hasn't~, other than in pretense, since vietnam. << Pretty fair assessment. All I've know drank themselves into various sorts of bondage.
mircea_popescu: think for a second : the "grunt" is mental ghost, from before phone age. can you picture one with smartphone anymore than you can picture juliet capuled with double dong ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform riiight, cuz that's how it works. "other than that one gangbang she told me about, i married a virgin"
diana_coman: hanbot, mircea_popescu or any other mpwp expert: how do I allow html tags in comments for non-logged in users?
diana_coman: I looked and apparently I have the allowed_html array fine in kses.php
diana_coman: but it doesn't seem to care about it so something else supersedes it?
diana_coman: I couldn't find any specific hook added and my theme doesn't seem to be to blame for this either as I tried with out-of-box theme and it was same behaviour
diana_coman: rather: allowedtags var in kses.php which I understand is used by default filters
hanbot: diana_coman: re behavior, does it fuck up the tag or send the comment to modqueue?
diana_coman: hanbot: apparently...both! i.e. comments gets sent to modqueue but tag is gone too.
hanbot: hrm. and on same setting page, "comment author must have a previously approved comment"?
hanbot: bizarre. i'll look into it, possibly mircea_popescu knows the culprit by sight tho'.
diana_coman: given this behaviour I suspect some sort of strip/filter at some intermediate step but I don't know wp that well
diana_coman: hanbot: hm, actually I was wrong: comment from previously approved user makes it directly, no modqueue.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: what/where should I look exactly? my dig into this yielded a sort of 1001 possible filters to add but I could not find one other than default afaik
mircea_popescu: in /home/trilema/public_html/wp-comments-post.php ln 41 :
mircea_popescu: $comment_content = ( isset($_POST['comment']) ) ? trim(strip_tags($_POST['comment'],"<a><em><strong><i><b><blockquote><ul><ol><li>")) : null;
diana_coman: confirmed, it's in there: comment_content = ( isset($_POST['comment']) ) ? trim(strip_tags($_POST['comment'],"<a><em><strong><i><b><blockquote><ul><ol><li>")) : null;
mircea_popescu: diana_coman in kses.php is defined twice, at lines 300 and 61 ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: yes, once in allowedposttags and once in allowedtags
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: yes: $allblocks = '(?:table|thead|tfoot|caption|colgroup|tbody|tr|td|th|div|dl|dd|dt|ul|ol|li|pre|select|form|map|area|blockquote|address|math|style|input|p|h[1-6]|hr)';
mircea_popescu: diana_coman this is truly all i head. are you using a mp-wp or own roll ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: I installed it from hanbot's genesis; I added my old footnote's plugin and changed in the theme to show the recent comments, that's about it.
diana_coman: and today I dug up chasing this thing but so far I have only better understanding of wp to show for it
diana_coman: so I'll have to sink in more time and find out, sigh
diana_coman: fwiw if I'm logged in, it keeps the tags in comments and I saw that yes, it has that current_user can html sort of thing but that is ALL html
diana_coman: other than that I grepped around and could not find additional hooks set, nor additional calls to strip nor anything useful really
diana_coman adds it to the list to unfuck and probably post, ugh.
diana_coman: also: I tried adding specifically to that array, another tag but it clearly just ignores/bypasses it somewhere; not even sure how to figure out *where* (i.e. when)
mircea_popescu: i don't currently know wtf to tell you. there's these two points, whereby $allowedtags hold the allowed tags and then that content filter removes some from comments at time of posting.
mircea_popescu: can you dump the actual content of $allowedtags while the thing is running ? is it getting blanked somewhere downstream ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: I did uncomment the "you can use these html tags" which calls allowed_tags and that showed precisely what is in allowedtags as far as I could tell
diana_coman: it's live and it shows: XHTML: You can use these tags: <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote cite=""> <cite> <code> <del datetime=""> <em> <i> <pre> <q cite=""> <strike> <strong>
diana_coman: the only thing to do next that I can think of is to try and trace wtf happens, step by step but I don't even have a clear idea on that.
mircea_popescu: other than, let either hanbot or billymg get to the bottom of this.
diana_coman: hanbot seems to have them working on her blog and so does nicoleci where I think it's barebasic install so as close to genesis as possible
mircea_popescu: diana_coman factually, it works on mine, and on all other mp-wp installs ~but yours~.
hanbot: i wish i knew what the shit. what really throws me is same behavior cross-theme, as i thought this stuff was theme-handled. i'ma keep digging.
diana_coman: so I guess the first thing is if anyone else can replicate it or it's something specific to my setup somehow - in which case,it's entirely mine to find...
diana_coman: hanbot: maybe I messed up at some point all themes; I'll press the genesis again and unpack a clean theme from there and see if that sorts it
mircea_popescu: how long ago was this install ? i mean, mp-wp hasn't been around long enough for you to have changed something by hand ~and forgot~, is it ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: initially I tried to simply drop in my own theme but that did not play nicely with mpwp; and for a (very short) time I stayed with the basic but it was so annoying that I quickly whipped up something.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-20 22:19 hanbot: diana_coman, there's at least one instance of this happening on my blog (
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-26#1729169), but i dun recall doing anything to "fix" it, unhelpfully. maybe it's actually 100% broken and i just don't get link comments? lessee.
hanbot: well better that than untraceable sidecase. sorry this wasn't caught sooner.
diana_coman: I do have this talent of stepping on such things
mircea_popescu: and evidently moderation's not involved : qntra doesn't and bingology does, but same result.
diana_coman: BingoBoingo: what did you do to get your mpwp to NOT strip html tags from comments?
diana_coman: either it doesn't strip 2 levels or it doesn't strip specifically inside pre
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: I'll have to dig. Qntra's not on mp-wp yet.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman is "wp_strip_all_tags()" called at any point ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: no; a grep returned nothing at all (-ir from top dir of wp install)
mircea_popescu: is $allowedtags ever unset() (presumably downstream from where it prints the contents above forum box) ?
hanbot: in wp-comments-post.php line 42 i see a list of content tags including b, blockquote, em, etc, but not a href; but eh looks like e.g. b is stripped too.
hanbot: comment content tags, i mean.
hanbot: eh nvm already covered above.
