[03:31:05] <SoyCow9044> I have noticed three instances today where posts by that sick AC have been modded /up/. Example: https://soylentnews.org I am hoping this is a bug rather than someone deliberatately up-modding.

[03:34:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> SoyCow9044, it's not a sock puppet or a bug as far as i can tell. what someone is going to find funny is a really insane grab bag though.
[03:35:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's now double-spam-modded though
[03:36:30] * chromas mods inciteful
[03:36:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> oooh, we should swap troll/flamebait for that
[03:38:05] <chromas> Need a Douché mod, too
[03:38:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> trué
[03:38:50] <chromas> Though that could cover all the downvotes
[03:41:54] <SoyCow9044> TheMightyBuzzard: thanks for looking into it. TBH, I find it easier to understand/forgive the AC (can write that off as mental health issues) than the fool who is up-modding.
[03:42:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's not an AC. it's the same douchepickle who's done most of our branded trolling from the start.
[03:44:23] <chromas> Has a lot time time; must be a professional Russian Troll™
[03:44:47] <chromas> Ask Soylent: Has Russia taken notice of SN?
[03:45:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm not putting any effort into shutting it down because it's not really possible to shut down. and because he cut it down to less than one a day after i warned him his registered accounts would suffer too if we had to start trying.
[03:45:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> on average that is.
[03:46:16] <chromas> Do you know what the Shill RSS URL field does?
[03:46:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> not a clue
[03:47:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> there's still plenty about rehash that nobody on staff has any idea about.
[03:47:36] <SoyCow9044> TheMightyBuzzard: you mean it's a registered user posting anonymously?
[03:47:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[03:48:08] <SoyCow9044> Wow.
[03:48:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> or possibly his wife/little brother behind NAT. really makes no difference to me though.
[03:49:41] <SoyCow9044> Alright - keep up the good work and thanks for looking into this.
[03:50:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> for all we know "he" is really a female midget who got a sex change to male and identifies as a panda.
[03:50:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, no prollem.
[03:51:19] * chromas curses at github for kiping the / keybinding from firefox
[03:52:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> fix it. i know you got greasemonkey or some such installed.
[03:53:47] <chromas> I don't really see anything using that field's value. Maybe it's something you guys stripped out
[03:54:25] * chromas sets a value for his ipid on dev
[03:56:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> quite possible. NC nuked a whoooole lot of stuff early on.
[03:56:20] <chromas> It doesn't show an ipid for my sub I just made but it shows ipids from last year
[03:56:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> you don't deserve an ipid
[03:57:47] <chromas> the value seems to disappear

[12:27:38] * Bytram so wants to go back to bed, but needs to bring car in for repair and inspection
[12:30:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> ugh, inspections. I remember those from my time living in upstate NY, they were brutal there.
[12:32:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> Can't say I blame them, though; mechanics had to do inspections and could only charge $10 for them at the time, but they were time consuming because there's something like 40 things to check, so OF COURSE they wanted to find something on your car to fix to pay for their time.
[12:32:50] <Bytram> that had been my experience, as well.
[12:33:34] <Bytram> cost a bit more than that where I am now, and are a bit less exacting, so work out to being a fairer use of mechanics' time... less need to gouge the car owner
