(ossasepia) diana_coman: let me know if it misbehaves again
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: sorted, it works now; there was a known issue caused by the version of php running on the server breaking silently some of wordpress functionality; I hadn't realised that the patch for it hadn't been applied, I've patched it now and updated your post with proper html tags to check everything is fine
(trilema) diana_coman: myeah, so it was; BingoBoingo update your scripts or something, what's the point in deploying it with a known bug??
(trilema) diana_coman: BingoBoingo: the mp-wp on younghands.club seems to be still stripping all tags; is it deployed without the patch or what?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: cool, don't forget to take notes as you go and post them at the end of the day.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: take v.py as number 1, go through it and make notes/ask, poke it, figure it out; for variety, get set up and going with eulora too, sure, that should fit in alongside; rsa can wait a bit atm, I'd say
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that sounds like 3 number 1 priorities? lolz
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: now you got your site up and yours posts on and apparently can afford to stop futzing with the web part for a bit: what will you focus on as number 1 priority next week? (this week you can tie up loose ends since you kept collecting new ones as far as I can see)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: eh, wisdom = total sum of bumps and scrapes and worse one survived so far, you know
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and yes, "short and sweet" is mostly a matter of not looking hard enough of the thing :))
(ossasepia) diana_coman: url is how you find the post so I'd say yes, human consumption too
(ossasepia) diana_coman: if you go the route "url is for machine" then you should use the ip directly, neh?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: but how do you remember that today's post is number x?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that's precisely the thing - the date you already know, while the number...
(ossasepia) diana_coman: posts on the blog are text for human consumption not numbers for machine consumption, that's the point there
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: how is it easier to refer to?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: it loses some information with what gain exactly?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: fwiw I don't hate any sort of assorted bits, what did 0/1 ever did to me, lol; people yes, if you find actual persons worth hating might even do you good (hint: perfect focus)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: as stated it's not much of a definition (hint: what is "works"?)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you are at least honest enough with yourself to recognise it, hence you can at least laugh at it too; most "customers" won't admit it.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: well, just in case you didn't :D
(ossasepia) diana_coman: note that I don't mind it in the slightest if you go and install eulora on mac - actually it's even better, since so far I don't know of anyone who managed to get it working on mac :D
(ossasepia) diana_coman: it does sound like you already have at least the public-toilet machine aka your mac (the tmsr term of art for those is crapple)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: you can totally run it with on-board graphics for sure
(ossasepia) diana_coman: anyways, re eulora - it has *very* low graphics requirements really
(ossasepia) diana_coman: iirc someone even got it running on a virtual machine (though I wouldn't recommend that)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and yes, I'm sure it is hard, it *is* hard, yes.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: the thing with the nice server in the cloud is that it's ...in the cloud, you know?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: on the plus side though, a desktop computer nowadays is not that huge anymore necessarily and it's a few hundred, probably way cheaper anyway (note that you don't *need* and probably not even want the latest bla-bla)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: btw that's precisely what V enables one to do too: to own the code you run, there's no "oh, it requires now this or that dependency" - if it's not a change proposed by someone you trust (i.e. in your wot), it doesn't even get to bother you with its existence; and even if it's proposed by someone you trust, you get to decide IF you want it anyway
(ossasepia) diana_coman: it's to a large extent against all the cloudflare&co crowd (it's not convenient!!!11) but in a nutshell I suppose you could think of it this way: if you own it, then it WILL do whatever *you* ask of it (or you blow it up)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: the moment you have to "oh, it requires Cloudflare/https/blabla enabled" aka you do what *it* asks, it works the other way around, it's owning your ass
(ossasepia) diana_coman: note that a lot of effort around in tmsr is precisely to enable one to actually own his machine/game/whatever
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: for starters, I build my own machines (and if it's not built by me, then I'll take it apart first anyway); pretty much same for software (and if /when I need to use shit, well, there's a dedicated "toilet-pc" for that)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: let me know if there's more trouble
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: log out and back in
(ossasepia) diana_coman: I've deactivated the visual editor for you so hopefully you get only the html one
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that's what the visual one.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: ugh; apparently it's to do with your account's role, I'll need to look at it
(ossasepia) diana_coman: so you click on html and it remains grayed out?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: do you have both tabs visual/html?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: if you click on them, it should switch from one to another
(ossasepia) diana_coman: hm, I usually write them offline in a text editor and then just plonk them in there; let me see maybe it's some artefact of that installation and/or your author's role
(ossasepia) diana_coman: go to your admin dashboard and change also the links format to the saner date/title
(ossasepia) diana_coman: because this "p488" is not helping anyone
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: there, to test your comments too
(ossasepia) diana_coman: at least if it's a pillage party, let's make it fully so
(ossasepia) diana_coman: in the spirit of "pillage+rape is good for a school anyway" I'm considering turning on even the xmlrpc thing
(ossasepia) diana_coman: eh, so "for free" my foot; basically there's nothing for free and if you don't know who pays, it's probably you being sold
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re posting: post on your blog since you made yourself one, sure; do backups and all that; maybe simply add 1-para summary + link on younghands.club; you get a link to your content and it's easier to follow anyway (+ you won't need to change *that*)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: "worth noting that Cloudflare offer the above for free" - you realise that there is nothing "for free" ever, do you.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: anyway, back to the original question: your post on your website says you *published on younghands.club* - hence my question, did you actually publish? or just intended but in the end not (then update the text!!) or what happened.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: note that just as it's convenient for you to upload your post using xmlrpc.php, so it's convenient for an attacker to use that same opening for DDOS and/or brute-force attack
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re xml-rpc, I'll have a look but it's very likely that it "won't work" because your setup forces you into "latest only" ; a good time to note that *everything* has a cost and convenience often costs way more than you imagine
(ossasepia) diana_coman: so: I'm not necessarily anti-mac, just saying that 1. it'll be a pain 2. you don't own it, it owns you
(ossasepia) diana_coman: fwiw I did have a mac laptop + a desktop some 10 years ago - they were slick and good to look at (to the point that I found some of it distracting when needing to work) and otherwise 3 times hotter and noisier than any other hardware of similar or even greater power
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and yes, almost all my computers around here are at least 10 years old (though none of them are macs)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re mac : well, ~anything is a better option than windows, but what's that going to do; and note that it's not the price the problem either but the fact that you are *meant to not own* your stuff on either system
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you do know that mp-wp has a html editor, right? (fwiw I never use the other one precisely because of wasting time formatting and clicking buttons)
(trilema) diana_coman: take care of yourself BingoBoingo
(ossasepia) diana_coman: as for pgp, better focus on understanding RSA because that's the part that stays, not the whole mess otherwise (see my EuCrypt series and asciilifeform's FFA)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: mac might not be the easiest host for eulora; do you work on macs only or why mac?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you say "published first blog post on younghands.club" - I can't see it, where is it??
(ossasepia) diana_coman: not bad, shrysr, congrats on having a site!
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and you know, be a bit more prudent with what you dive in or who knows what you catch, lol.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: heh, good for you.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and no, you publish first and *then* investigate (since publishing burns because look, one day late)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: link or it ain't ready :D :D
(trilema) diana_coman: rewritting the appearance and carefully not mentioning anything because "it's too much to dive in"
(trilema) diana_coman: sigh; I'll have to look at it in more detail one of those days, yes.
(trilema) diana_coman: so uhm, basically it has to be a different mp-wp installation for logtron specifically?
(trilema) diana_coman: myeah, it is postgres
(trilema) diana_coman: myeah, this is what I was trying to look up because iirc it IS postgres
(trilema) diana_coman: ah, yes, certainly; I meant : if one wants several logs published on the same blog (why not, after all, not as if it can't make sense)
(trilema) diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: same db as what? the youngthing is on pizarro's shared stuff; my blog is on my rockchip so separate
(trilema) diana_coman: well, not like one can't replicate then for any number of channels for that matter (different category each in the db or whatevers)
(trilema) diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: hm, it would even make sense to publish on the younghands.club thing, classroom discussion
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and since I can't see it published, therefore it is NOT READY
(ossasepia) diana_coman: not done even.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: "more or less ready" is top lolz - yo, either it's ready or it's not ready!
(trilema) diana_coman: uhm, lobbes ^
(trilema) diana_coman: spyked: but you have something working, namely whatever you are using for #eulora logs, right? why not publish that?
(trilema) diana_coman: might as well use my local log and publish it on my blog ?
(trilema) diana_coman: given http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-11#1922329 and the total lack of answer even on http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-11#1922318 - what is the idea here with logging infrastructure ?
(trilema) diana_coman: orc-estrate it
(trilema) diana_coman: ha, I read the logs this morning and guess what - that http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-22#1924167 ref is precisely what I was looking for (to hit a young enthusiast over the head with)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: if it burns, use it as motivation to learn even faster
(ossasepia) diana_coman: this is not a 3-ring binder, checklist-ticking place - each individual is where and what they are based on what they do, not on age, height, sex, whatever else you can tick
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re being 31, nice to hear; but do note that "being old enough" has nothing to do with biological age
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you know, that s.ragavan.co is not working from here; and ugh cloudflare??? get out of that shit
(ossasepia) diana_coman: anyway, if you are keen on that, perhaps start from http://ossasepia.com/category/tmsr/a-week/ and read in parallel the actual log for those weeks, then try your own hand at summarizing what you read; note that it can be extremely time consuming
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re logs, the best way to get to grips would probably be by reading a lot, but it can be a painful start,hence I did not yet set it as task - you still have loads to do
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: asciilifeform is the author of loper-os.org; he kindly joined my channel
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that terribly slow accessing might be worth investigating; maybe have a look and see where the bottleneck is? it might be that your motel wifi is the sort that "works well" but only to local isp/canada stuff or who knows; alternatively, if there really is a problem on pizarro end, I get something to tell them but you need to give me something more concrete than "it was terribly slow"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: diana_coman: you know I have to zoom to 140% to be able to comfortably read your blog , as well as trilema -> the point is that it zooms well, doesn't it? how much you need to zoom or not depends on your display, it's not something I as blog owner can or should control
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: I think since coming on to IRC and this channel, I feel like I've learnt more in a week than a long time. hehe -> cool :)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: use p.bvulpes.com for paste
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: re complex system, note that I said simply to make sure that the work gets done, that's all; if it works, good.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: I'm Romanian, currently in the UK; the site/pizarro is hosted in Uruguay
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: which both? lol
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: hmm.. is caring about others opinion the same as wanting to cultivate a specific 'reputation' ? - well, add it to your to-do-list: write a post contrasting those two and try to identify how do they differ exactly?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you can do that, yes; just make sure you don't end up with such a complicated "system" that you don't have any time left for the actual writing and work otherwise
(ossasepia) diana_coman: it is also true that some "people" will sprout "opinions" all the time and on anything and with about as much meaning as the wind but then you know, stop talking to such "people", it's unhealthy
(ossasepia) diana_coman: if you care about an opinion, the reason usually is because it touches some nerve somewhere - so look inside you and see where and why, first of all; but the only things under your control are always inside you, not outside
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: the question is how does exactly *my* change do anything to *you*?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: as for "people formulate opinions" - sure they do, so what? what's that to do with you now? what, if I "formulate opinion" that Shreeyas is a cabbage, do you start sprouting leaves now?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: use the proper terminology so you don't confuse yourself: the blog is the whole thing; each thing you publish is a post (or article)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: you have your own category so there is that but if you want to use then different tags, go ahead, sure
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: the power over you is a different issue, not addressed by hiding / not based on information really; work on being less under the power of others if you want, but that's nothing to do with hiding.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: cool; speak up here if anything.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: blog your progress following this pattern: first make a plan e.g. you'll think it will take you that much and you plan to start with this bit/that approach; report then daily what you did and how it went and/or if you need to adjust your plan
(ossasepia) diana_coman: any questions there?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: that still sounds rather foggy; how about this: since you know some python, get v.py (asciilifeform's implementation of V) and review it as your first task; this means: go through it line by line as many times as you need until you can fully explain what is going on in there exactly and why
(ossasepia) diana_coman: hiding (and esp selective hiding) is a burden that is neither healthy nor something you actually afford to carry really; as for desire of being viewed one way or another - what others "view" is entirely on them, not on you and it's not something you'll ever be able to control anyway (it's not worth it either, fwiw)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: what's your plan ?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: did you log in to the blog?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: nobody's exempt from doing the dumb thing at times
(ossasepia) diana_coman: (and yes, occasionally and no matter how much you guard against it, you *will* still do a dumb thing anyway - so learn to live with it)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: do realise that the issue here is not the "oh, but it's public" - that part should not really matter, not like it's fine to be dumb as long as nobody sees it.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that certainly.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: otherwise: sure, qualify your opinions and make clear your assumptions and line of thought etc; but don't shrink from *saying* what you think - after all, how else will you get to find out how much you are right and how much wrong
(ossasepia) diana_coman: btw if your pay etc is "secret" fine this instance - do me a favour and send it encrypted to my key so it stays private
(ossasepia) diana_coman: think of it this way: would you suggest children should not talk at all until they actually know something beyond reasonable doubt?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: well, you'll keep your mouth shut forever like that
(ossasepia) diana_coman: or what, are you considered some saint around there?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: ofc they *are* your own personal views, not some magical/universal truths
(ossasepia) diana_coman: but so what, you are not allowed to be wrong now?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: anyway, out of curiosity, what do you get paid there? (and why is data science such a bugaboo for your boss anyway?)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: for one thing, the internet IS a public place, you know?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: there is no "private" on the internet, esp not at this sort "we hide here and nobody will hear what we say"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: but so what exactly?
(trilema) diana_coman: ftr I used above vpatch and vdiff from phf's vtools at http://barksinthewind.com/2018/vtools-keccak-regrind/ ; is there anything newer that I missed somehow?
(trilema) diana_coman: in the patch (it's p2.vpatch in there), it's clear that the hashes are the same for the file so it IS the same file.
(trilema) diana_coman: hm, current vtools still don't handle move of files or what am I missing here? I made a simple test with moving one file to a different location and as far as I can see, it's still delete + create, no move
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: to put the "want-you-don't-want" in context perhaps, here: http://trilema.com/2014/that-aint-the-maslow-pyramid-yo/
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re gpg - you can wire it up any way you want ofc but do note that if you lose (as in: someone else gains access to) your private key, you are effectively dead.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: go ahead with those definitions then, let's see how well they actually work in practice
(ossasepia) diana_coman: the conversations in chan here are logged and the log will be made public, yes; similarly to the other chans' logs
(trilema) diana_coman: with many thanks to BingoBoingo for his prompt and faultless service
(ossasepia) diana_coman: let me know if you have any trouble logging in or publishing stuff
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and otherwise...publish
(ossasepia) diana_coman: in the end I've opened it up to all IPs, since it's quite public after all so it'll have to put up with whatever the public throws at it
(trilema) diana_coman: is deedbot mia again?
(trilema) diana_coman: k, I'll set it up
(trilema) diana_coman: BingoBoingo: can I setup a db backup with crontab directly or do you need to do that or how does it go?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: admiration and adoration
(trilema) diana_coman: BingoBoingo: would there be any problem from pizarro's point of view to have such a thing?
(trilema) diana_coman dislikes the noise, lol.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: ah you go /me blbla
(ossasepia) diana_coman: lol; first of all are you sure you can define the 2 as clearly disjunct? :D
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: what message thingy?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: in particular, it's not something you get to apply to ONE woman you see just because she's a woman (or to ONE man just because he's a man)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and note that here as above, this is statistically speaking and you should know what that means
(trilema) diana_coman: it's also the sort of thing that is on the checklist of douchebags-style aka trivial to break and "rara"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you might be surprised but they are
(ossasepia) diana_coman has yet to see a man who does *not* thoroughly enjoy admiration and adoration for that matter
(trilema) diana_coman: there is that; I'm fighting the fact that ....but it's MY school goddamnit
(ossasepia) diana_coman: basically you are not cutting off your dick, just shaving/trimming bits off, lol
(trilema) diana_coman: another can of worms
(ossasepia) diana_coman: this is a bit like the frog saying "jumping in this slightly warmer water certainly feels more feasible than jumping into the scalding water directly and thus possibly reduce conflict or pain overall in the journey" ; and the frog is right! it reduces conflict and pain overall in the journey to boiled frog!
(trilema) diana_coman: I guess I'm doomed to do it first manually and then cook up an automation of *that* process
(trilema) diana_coman: that's the thing: that after logging in, they need access t wp-admin which is iffy to give because again, same trouble; and yes, ofc wp has roles and I wanted to use them but that's not enough
(ossasepia) diana_coman: none of them are "wrong"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: sure, you enjoy more one form of it or another but so what
(trilema) diana_coman: though logically speaking the solution would be to automate *that* part, hm
(trilema) diana_coman: hm, I suppose it should be possible to just make a different login page in the root dir but then they'd need at least another page to actually submit the text too and it all circles back to similar "offer the piece there"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: what you want most probably is *recognition*
(ossasepia) diana_coman: btw the above does *not* mean that it's fine to be a slave to this (or any other) need; just don't negate it because it is part of you; work with it and figure out its deeper roots.
(ossasepia) diana_coman is looking if shrysr is still breathing or totally shocked.
(trilema) diana_coman: I wanted a less hands-on approach, since I'm planning to run a class there, not holding their hand at such level
(ossasepia) diana_coman: if it's any help I can directly tell you that it's *also* inconvenient to not have one, there.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: in crude words: don't cut off your own dick just because it's inconvenient to have one, at times
(trilema) diana_coman: can wp manage login via pastes on p.bvulpes?
(trilema) diana_coman: BingoBoingo: how do you mean?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that's bullshit; why should you want food too and sex too and why not live for nothing alone?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: but that's a different ...signal
(ossasepia) diana_coman: you are of course totally welcome to not like the fact that you don't receive as much as you'd want :D
(ossasepia) diana_coman: do you hate that too now?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that you want it is a signal, nothing more; a signal to *you*; saying you can't control it is a bit like saying you can't control being hungry
(trilema) diana_coman: hm, does anyone around here know a good way to allow WP logins for non-admin users from any IP while still keeping the admin restricted sanely?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: how is it a dependency though? a want is not a dependency
(ossasepia) diana_coman: why do you hate wanting it?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: well, that's the thing with the vps and cloudflare and all the similar shit - you are actually tollerated while they can fleece something off of you (time at the very least)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: but as soon as you actually try to do something you'll find soon enough that nope, you aren't wanted there anymore
(ossasepia) diana_coman: I hope you have planned to do a write-up of it, yes? :D
(ossasepia) diana_coman: well yes, but it has some assumptions
(ossasepia) diana_coman: or well, "usefulness" of what passes nowadays for a computer
(ossasepia) diana_coman: welcome to "tools that will help you!!!!"(pull your hair out)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: I did use it again when I got into eulora but the trouble with eulora so far is that there is too little data :))
(ossasepia) diana_coman: no, not really; I used R some....10 years ago, when I was messing about with "software engineering" "data" in academia
(ossasepia) diana_coman: well, it's a bit iffier than that and anyway, probably I'll need to figure out a solution for it anyway so might as well do it now
(ossasepia) diana_coman: I can imagine that; the trouble with temporary solutions is that they tend to end up permanently-temporary, lol
(ossasepia) diana_coman: is that your way of making sure you're motivated to spend a lot of time at work?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: probably the hard way aka monitoring it for a while if you never bothered before; but by the sounds of it, it's rather more likely it's not very stable; I'll think a bit.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: heh, well done! I'd have been worried if you didn't, to be honest; for one thing I made the thing to be digestible without much requirements otherwise ; and for the other thing, you had the leisure to read it at your own pace!
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: as in one that doesn't change every other day
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: do you have a stable IP you connect from? I'm looking at the best options to give you login access on your user there but I'm not very happy about just leaving it accessible from anywhere
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and anyway, you're in the best position there to be in at the very start, you know?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: glad to hear it :) as you can tell, I'm just starting it and mainly because it seems needed; but among all the other stuff going around, I have lots planned for it to grow too
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: try now
(ossasepia) diana_coman: hm, I'll look at it
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: which url?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: meanwhile I'll set you up an author user there and you can either write there
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: head over to http://younghands.club and tell me if you see the blog (so not just "it works") as the dns changes should have propagated by now
(ossasepia) diana_coman: heh, I know it seems; but it's just that, it *seems*; there is no real downside in fact; anyway, you'll get to see what I mean, probably in not such a long time
(ossasepia) diana_coman: and what, it breaks the net or what?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: heh, distance is such a tricky thing to evaluate :D
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: and you know, do you have all this journaled on your blog so you (a later you, another "you") can look back at it in detail, maybe learn some more from it, maybe recognise something in it, who knows?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: I mean: from everything else and at every juncture you say you were frustrated because you weren't working with the cool cats, which I can get totally; but migrating means precisely starting from the lowest of the low possible, about as far away as it can be from the "cool cats"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: in what sense did migrating seem "the option" though?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: you know, it might be precisely those parts that you are not so happy about that give you an edge though; and think of it: plenty who did computer science; doesn't get them anywhere further than diddling websites on top of a precarious tower of babel that crumbles each and every way any time you try to do something
(trilema) diana_coman: BingoBoingo: ack, so far so good, thank you! bill me for 1 year and I'll see to it
(ossasepia) diana_coman: on the bright side, as long as you use at least basic ingredients (rather than mass produced ready-shit), you can say you are at least eating food if a rather poor one (seriously, it sounds very much like some medieval winter-time dirt-poor peasant staple, lol)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: anyways...how did you end up in that precise hole of Canada, shrysr ?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: but funnily enough, with food like anything else, you *can* get fast+little effort + tasty except you need to start with 1. tasty ingredients 2. knowing how to cook
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: eh, up in the sticks, nobody other than locals thinks canada is a developed country, lol
(trilema) diana_coman gave all computers around work to do for the next hours so she goes happily to sleep.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: lol, do you get at least the food from home/someone cooking? or is it the sad shop-fare?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: that's usually "done" nowadays, a bit like "cooking" is taken to mean "oh, I did do the mixing" (or maybe turned the oven on)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: you'll get to see this mp-wp anyway because that's what will be deployed on the shared blog.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: from* there, ofc, not for scratch, lol
(ossasepia) diana_coman: the theme on my website is mine aka really one I did for scratch (out of being pissed off with everything else)
(ossasepia) diana_coman: on my* website
(ossasepia) diana_coman: yes, it is this "mp-wp" - essentially a customised, frozen version (most customizations were done by Mircea Popescu, not by me); it was genesised and it could do with some themes for it + any amount of reducing the code base for sure: http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=mp-wp&search=
(ossasepia) diana_coman: fwiw my website is currently running on one of those
(ossasepia) diana_coman: heh, pizarro have the rockchips, quite cute even
(ossasepia) diana_coman: shrysr: re vps you do I hope realise that it's not really "your vps" in any real sense of the term, right?
(ossasepia) diana_coman: ftr: if you have your own domain and site I don't mind if you write there but I won't let you give github or whatever other shit any content
(ossasepia) diana_coman: re price, I suppose it reflects this but as I said earlier, you get a place on the shared blog anyway so I suppose you can leave this for later if it's not yet clear
(ossasepia) diana_coman: well, for one thing it's run by people I'm vouching for : they won't either run with your data ever, nor give your details to anyone ever (as in really ever, no gdpr/whatever bullshit) and they are always on hand and helpful with any help you need; not to mention you actually get what the offer says, not some "yours" that is however not exactly yours and "ooops, there was some problem/cloud/bla"
(ossasepia) diana_coman: or at least strive to - and then look back and identify problems and next time do it better; that's what learning is.
(ossasepia) diana_coman: hence my earlier: put online whatever you write; because the topic does NOT matter - it's HOW you write about it that matters; so write from my point of view about goldfish even if you want or about nonsens - but make sure you write structured and meaningful about it (yes, it IS possible, even about nonsense)
