mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo eh, alcohol is expensive and doesn't exist. he's safe.
hanbot: mircea_popescu oh yeah, neat
BingoBoingo: Eh, there's no drunk worse than a dry drunk
mircea_popescu: as the old "there's no rot worse than dry rot" ?
BingoBoingo: Yeah. Companion phrase is "The second best treatment for the alcoholic problems is booze"
BingoBoingo: Without the drinking to forget, all that remains is a big meatsack full of resentments.
mircea_popescu: well... it's complicated.
BingoBoingo: But, returning to DC swamp food desert what do alf tastes have to look forward to? How does one cope? Does alf go to distilled water and grain alcohol diet?

lobbes: fwiw in the short-term, I may have lobbesbot start archiving wotpastes only and host them to my personal www
lobbes: seems like that's been the main (only?) demand so far: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1729991
a111: Logged on 2017-10-27 22:13 mod6: and it was pretty nifty that it had archived all of the pastes.
lobbes: if anything: redundancy. And if in x $time trinque's vision becomes realized I'll be ready to relay whatever I got
mod6: there's also a few other things mentioned in the thread above.
lobbes: true. pdf converter top-priority
mod6: yeah, kinda interesting little project there.
lobbes: hmm. I'm sure it is above my skill, but so was everything else I've done here before I did it
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730021 << archive.is is a (not esp. reliable, and easily, often, blocked by enemy) central point of failure, and to put further pressure on it is screaming lunacy
a111: Logged on 2017-10-27 22:28 mircea_popescu: the principal impediment to republican logging, atm, is that nobod yucan be arsed to write a html de-fucker ; there is one already written, by the archive.is dood, which spits out zips. the solutions then are either a) piggyback on that, which alf has (irresponsibly) been trying to obstruct throughout, and in the laughablest of manners or else b) make own, which will without exception require making own, and RIGHT NOW, not "n
asciilifeform: 'let's fetch all of our links via one ip' how is that alone not batshit and invitation for diddles.
lobbes: plus, one day archive.is will be gone overnight
asciilifeform: and author did ~not~ write 'html defucker', by all indications he has a headless browser which infects just like other graphical wwwtrons and is public toilet
asciilifeform: lobbes: and yes, it will
asciilifeform: and even if it stays up, author is a wotless heathen, can be relied on to, e.g., supply logs to enemy, insert boobytraps , lose or modify stored material, one day.
asciilifeform: while the thing stays up and appears to work, it is spottily useful, like google cache et al. but to suggest to build it permanently into infrastructure is nonsense, and i can only assume mircea_popescu had a strong bottle when suggested it
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730023 << pdf decrufter is similar item to graphical-www archiver, it is turing-complete op, and requires either absolutely correct soft (e.g. adatronic 100%) or sacrificial publictoilet iron.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-27 22:29 mircea_popescu: thatg aside, the more pressing problem is that we don't have a proper pdf-decrufter, (random moron with delusions of self-impoirtance failed to be useful, as you prolly recall), and if we're going to do something by hand this'd be more sorely needed than that.
asciilifeform: fwiw i have one for publictoilet iron, it's a few line of bash, spits out result similar to http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-31#1707238

asciilifeform: the problem is where to host, if publicly accessible it needs potentially massive bandwidth, and if not public, is a fucking pain ( i won't be entering pw or whatever nonsense every time i want to click a link, wtf )
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730032 << it's as reliable as the lift in a sov apt block
