[01:49:04] <MrPlow> Submitting. There is a mandatory delay, please be patient.
[01:49:30] <MrPlow> Submission successful. https://soylentnews.org
[02:08:59] <takyon> I might have to submit something on the clinton foundation stuff
[02:09:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> someone needs to. it's a quality scandal.
[02:10:00] <Runaway1956> As charities go, the foundation ranks very low. A good charity moves 70% or more of it's funds on to the needy.
[02:10:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> just a wild guess here but the clinton foundation moves most of its money into the hands of friends, relatives, and people it owes favors?
[02:11:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> all above board since they're employees or contractors, of course
[02:11:48] <Runaway1956> Well, they pay Chelsea a million dollars per year to do something or other - that is "charity"
[02:12:31] <Runaway1956> No starving children in Africa benefit from this "charity"

[10:27:33] <Booga1> smoke break? nicotine#3240
[10:27:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, rssbot was a perl attempt to get rid of bender's rss functionality to slim him down but pj brought up that bender uses rss for updating twitter/fb
[10:28:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> !karma chameleon
[10:28:19] <Bender> karma of chameleon is 6
[10:28:25] <chromas> and you thought you were gonna get away from the twitter api
[10:28:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, i know. i'd abandoned my own twitter reader for conky long ago.
[10:29:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> they kept breaking shat
[10:29:13] <chromas> but now you get to do it with a bot :)
[10:29:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> in a language i hate, no less
[10:29:40] <chromas> perl?
[10:29:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> #smake chromas
[10:29:46] * MrPlow smakes chromas upside the head with a random ~g'day beverage
[10:29:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> python
[10:30:06] <chromas> put twitter support into your perl bot
[10:30:13] <chromas> then you can nuke Bender
[10:30:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> i could but i don't wanna. i'd hafta drag over all the OAuth credentials and make rssbot masquerade as Bender
[10:31:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> cause as far as i know, nobody knows our twitter/fb passwords
[10:31:35] <chromas> can you just call the twitter part as an external script from MrPlow?
[10:31:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, bender's pretty monolithic
[10:31:57] <chromas> or MrRSS
[10:32:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd hafta either separate the code out into a separate python script or port it to perl
[10:33:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> and the bot ended up being 45MB just to pull rss/atom feeds and store info about them in a db anyway. not enough savings.
[10:33:45] <chromas> rss-to-db could be a cron script
[10:33:53] <chromas> then bot just checks the db
[10:34:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> could be, yeah.
[10:34:18] <chromas> I heard using mysql for ipc is the cool thing
[10:34:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> decided to just write it into MrPlow for kicks

[10:48:38] <Booga1> What's wrong with nudity in a car?
[10:53:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> the seats. fabric absorbs liquids and leather is always either burning hot or freezing cold.
[10:54:41] <chromas> it wasn't wrong; it just happened to have fewer nudities
[10:55:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, you statement is self-contradictory
[10:55:36] <chromas> need editing on irc
[10:55:55] <chromas> "the thing wrong with nudity in the car was the lack of it"

[15:26:00] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: ^^^ A couple of comments in the "Meta: Subjects are Good for You" story that are worth considering.
[15:27:08] <Runaway1956> It's good to plagiarise - see my latest submission
[15:27:39] <Bytram> A quick check in my Pale Moon browser on windows suggests that the comment title has no-wrap, so a very long subject could force page-widening beyond width of the viewport -- something to be aware of

[15:28:05] <Bytram> though i cannot find it now, I thought I saw a comment in the thread asking for highlighting of new comments since the last time one looked at a story, too.
[15:29:06] <Runaway1956> I figue if they want posts highlighted, they can go to Walmart and buy their own highlighter - pick any color they like.
[15:30:04] <Bytram> might as well get some wite-out for typos, too.
