mp_en_viaje: spyked, your blog doesn't do trackbacks does it ?
mp_en_viaje: so since thelastpsychiatrist.com went all fucking stupid (cloudflare aside, and mountain of pointless js aside, there's a spurious 1min delay before any pageload also now!), i scraped the article list both from archive page and category page, and downloaded the list.
☟︎☟︎ mp_en_viaje: "FINISHED --2019-07-14 01:43:12-- Downloaded: 699 files, 95M in 7h 47m 16s (3.48 KB/s)" << turns out he hadn't written THAT much.
spyked: mp_en_viaje, receiving trackbacks doesn't work yet, I have some scripts for sending them that I run once in a while. the plan is to make it a proper blog with comments and trackbacks, after I'm done stealing the cl www stack
mp_en_viaje: sending is one thing ; but getting is the bigger deal in my own experience.
spyked: aite. hm. I guess for now I'ma have to backlink manually by editing the post.
spyked: re tlp: at some point /me found a torrent of the tlp archive, only to discover it was a microshit word document. it wasn't really salvageable, so I threw it out the window.
spyked: and in other short updates, I'm just back from a trip to
maramures. I now have cca 10G of photos to sift through and some documenting/ranting work to do, gotta add it to the list.
mp_en_viaje: the point is this : if someone says something, and then links you, odds are he's saying something like "this guy also confirms".
mp_en_viaje: trackbacks offer you some measure of control over this "being drafted to vouch for others' idiocy" process ; because you can go check ; and if need be say "motherfucker, that's not what i'm saying at fucking all"
mp_en_viaje: trackbacks also offer another important function : if we believe that human intelligence principally manifests in the creation of tools ; and if we believe human expression is not orthogonal to intelligence, then we thereby also believe our expression is in part tool.
mp_en_viaje: the one most fascinating property of tools is their being the one bridge available between reals and ideals : theyr'e real objects with an ideal component! therefore, we theoretically predict the sluttery immanent to reality permits perversion, and phenomenology confirms : tools can in fact be used for purposes other than they were intended to!
mp_en_viaje: don't you wanna see what crazy batshit unexpected but perhaps kinda cool use some other maniac put your own tools to ?
mp_en_viaje: re tlp, also got the images ("Downloaded: 953 files, 30M in 7.0s (4.35 MB/s)"), and that's ~all im gonna get. dunno what to do with the material yet, maybe i start a tlp site review project.

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-14#1922408 <-- I was thinking about it along the lines of "I'ma emulate the trackback by manually editing the post". but I can see your point; I'll need to at least change the post structure of my blogotron so that comments and trackbacks go below, as a continuation of what was said inside the post itself.
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2019-07-14 09:01 mp_en_viaje: no point in backlinging / editing the post.
mp_en_viaje: gotta fix the brokedness that is the original html scheme
mp_en_viaje: unidirectional links make about as much sense as tv broadcasts ever can.
mp_en_viaje for sure has had as much as can possibly stomach of any conceivable tvworld.
diana_coman: this dev.to expedition is best taken in small doses
diana_coman: well, just had the "millisecond-checkout" behaviour in #ossasepia too; what exactly are they afraid of anyway?
mp_en_viaje: meanwhile in wtf lulz, "Windows servers have a maximum of two RDP sessions and one console session available, unless the server has been licensed for use as a terminal server. Leaving two disconnected RDP sessions on the server effectively blocks anyone else from connecting to the server via RDP."
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: some guy joining the channel and leaving the same second
diana_coman: there is at least one from dev.to that made it to comment on my blog at least so possibly dipped his toe a bit further but at each step it's like "oh, this is interesting" "so come and talk" "..."
diana_coman: in other annoying stuff: apparently the mysql ebuild I forced into use on smg test server meanwhile vanished from gentoo repos to the extent that my shiny new cuntoo just can't find it??
diana_coman: so now I suppose I'll have to grab the ebuild from smg test and use that, wtf
diana_coman: well, I just checked and I still have that ebuild on smg test so I'll do the dance with that; I suppose I might just as well sign it afterwards and that's that
diana_coman: the sort of "this is the frozen thing I'm using for lack of anything better" sig rather than "this thing I read and know inside out" sig
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, in other lulz, nicole dredged up local blondy ex-mech engineer turned java developer (sorry mocky, chick never heard of you). she intends to start her out outsourcing comp (because hates working with idiots ; yet if challenged "what you gonna do when rich ?" she wants to come up with some garbage sorting solution, because idiots do ~nothing but produce garbage and she doesn't understand the beheadingof
☟︎☟︎ mp_en_viaje: the idiots is the way to go) and then make a product corp that makes its own product!!!
mp_en_viaje: girl's smart enough, but too scrawny for my interest, and so... on the tailings pile she goes...
diana_coman: sounds quite close to the "making my own outsourcing comp" type I knew in Bucharest too: not keen as much on getting rid of garbage, as maybe riding it to "money"
diana_coman: I don't know; the guys were also not keen on getting rid of garbage as maybe getting a bigger pile of garbage for themselves.
BingoBoingo: In hereto undocumented local lulz, today is the local version of father's day. This means during my walking around town starting yesterday afternoon the local dumb asks changed from "una moneda para comer algo" to "por favor, puedes traerme algo de carne por mis hijos. Tengo X hijos y quiero darles algo""
mp_en_viaje: "algo de carne" also can stand for penis, neh ?
mp_en_viaje: try a "para su hijos no, pero por las hijas puede ser"
BingoBoingo: The working bum that doesn't even sleep on the street anymore ended up getting a chunk of "Colita de Cuadril" to show the kids he's less of a loser than he was last year.
trinque: diana_coman: congrats. the next step would be to produce a vpatch which adds your curl ebuild atop the genesis.vpatch the bootstrapper produced.
☟︎ trinque: I'm sure it does feel like a bit of gruntwork, and yet, later you will always have that curl, and it will always build.
