[00:09:33] <paulej72> OK the emails were fixed by not encoding the body.
[00:10:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> excellent
[00:10:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> figured that would be it
[00:10:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> what was i gonna fix tomorrow again?
[00:11:17] <paulej72> I was trying multiple things at once and had to figure out what the actual fix was
[00:11:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh, nod nod
[00:11:27] <paulej72> M2
[00:11:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, should only take half the morning
[00:11:57] * TheMightyBuzzard scratches his head
[00:12:01] <paulej72> bad fomating on the journals and articles on the top of comments
[00:12:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh right
[00:12:43] <paulej72> I fell like I was doing this same shit lat Wenesday
[00:12:55] * TheMightyBuzzard copy n pastes that to hey_fucker.txt that he keeps open for notes
[00:13:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly were but all new bugs
[00:13:22] <paulej72> OK while I am fixing mails, I am going to look at the sbscription emails
[00:13:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> they're not hard to do i just had no inspiration for the layout
[00:14:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> in fact i think they're a bit overdone as it is.
[00:21:26] <paulej72> crap
[00:22:22] <paulej72> my head hurts already looking at https://github.com
[00:23:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> just a buncha simple math really
[00:24:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'll do it if you'll email me a how ya want it laid out example
[00:24:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly get rid of half the code while i'm at it too.
[00:25:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> i mean do we wanna break it down by paypal/bitpay or just the total or yadda yadda yadda
[00:25:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> renewals aren't an issue yet.
[00:48:08] <juggs> Anyone running a QNAP NAS?
[00:49:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> no but i am pondering taking a nap
[00:49:47] <juggs> there's a queue for that! badum-tish :D
[00:50:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> damn, snuck that one up on me
[00:50:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> you know, i think we could do the @uid translated into a linked username really, really easy.
[00:51:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> or @username or @"user name"
[00:51:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> all three could work at once even
[00:55:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> i think we do the conversion as the comment is submitted rather than on display. means one lookup vs thousands.
[00:55:47] <paulej72> I have been looking at the code and we need to fix a lot i the subs email. also it feeds into the stats system so that needs fixed as well.
[00:56:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya
[00:56:12] <paulej72> Not sure if this can make it into 14.10
[00:57:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> possibly not but if it gets done in the first week of 10 we can just point release it
[00:57:21] <paulej72> sure
[00:58:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> you know, i may write up a quick implementation of the @uid/username/"user name" system tomorrow too. would be pretty simple to do.
[00:59:58] <paulej72> would work like the <url:link> shortcut
[01:00:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> essentially, yeah
[01:01:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> have to do a db lookup but one per comment is no biggie at this point.
[01:02:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> just a quick uid to username conversion if they use uid then replace any spaces with + and tack it on to the sitename variable for the href="foo" bit
[01:02:41] <paulej72> you might want to make the trigger more complex than just @uid as it would be easier to use <@uid> or something that would be easier to regex on
[01:03:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> could i guess but it's an ease of use feature for the users so easy for them would be the primary consideration as opposed to can it be gamed or mistaken
[01:04:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> could also tie in nicely with user to user messaging later
[01:04:51] <paulej72> what do ohter sites typically use, or hat does phpBB use
[01:05:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> dunno. the @blah came from twitter i think though i've seen it a lot on other comment systems, unofficially done by users.
[01:06:33] <SpallsHurgenson> user-to-user messenging? sounds like featuritis run amok.
[01:06:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> could do **blah for that matter
[01:06:41] <paulej72> just the @foo bar does not work
[01:06:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> no but @"foo bar" would.
[01:07:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> just match /^"(.*?)"/ and $1 is your username
[01:07:37] <paulej72> people will forget the quotes but <@foo bar> is hard to fuck up
[01:07:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod
[01:08:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> oooh, can't
[01:09:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> would have to allow every username as a tag or it'd get stripped
[01:09:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> or preempt the logic, which could wind it up in the wrong place.
[01:09:44] <paulej72> pick it off befor the the tag masher
[01:10:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, just worried that might be tricky to find the right spot.
[01:10:28] <paulej72> <URL:http://example.com/> will auto-link a URL
[01:10:28] <monopoly> ^ 03ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved
[01:10:45] <paulej72> that picks it off earlier or some such
[01:11:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> cool, be easier to find then
[01:11:53] <paulej72> that is why i suggested doing something similar. the logic is already woked out
[01:12:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, spose that'd work well enough then
[01:15:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> personally i think going by uid would be easiest for us. i mean it's right there next to the username on every comment. i'm not going to wind up in the majority on that opinion though.
[01:16:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> dammit. half the submissions in the queue are from me.
[01:17:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> go you
[01:17:25] <juggs> SpallsHurgenson, if ever implemented I think u2u messaging (mail) would have to come with a hefty dose of options to choose who to allow / block messages from (Fan/Foe/Freak/Karma?/Blacklist/Whitelist/Staff etc.) type graduations. I can imagine it being really divisive without those controls.
[01:17:34] <juggs> AndyTheAbsurd, good work sir :D
[01:17:36] <JamesNZ> Submit dat shiz!
[01:18:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> you angling for a free sub or something?
[01:18:33] <SpallsHurgenson> and I'm saying, "hey I already have email" so whatever happened to focussing on the core strengths of soylent (articles/comments) and not worrying about reinventing the wheel :)
[01:18:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh damn, i said sub. now i want a sammich.
[01:18:36] <exec> http://www.youtube.com
[01:19:17] <AndyTheAbsurd> I already have a paid sub (because I want soylentnews.org to continue and be self-sustaining and all that jazz), so no, I'm not angling for a free sub.
[01:19:53] <AndyTheAbsurd> Gir have used "sudo make me a sammich" in that video...
[01:19:53] <exec> http://www.youtube.com
[01:19:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> AndyTheAbsurd, kidding man, though you'll likely end up with one if you keep that level of awesome up.
[01:22:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm...
[01:22:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> we really should have a badge for heavy submitters. what says awesome and can fit in like half a dozen pixels?
[01:23:35] -!- Konomi has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[01:23:37] <paulej72> gweg_ would still not get one :)
[01:24:03] <juggs> SpallsHurgenson, quite agree - always priorities. But should we get overloaded with devs (hahahahaha!) then it's a thought.
[01:24:06] <paulej72> Also we don’t need not stinkin badges
[01:24:22] <juggs> TheMightyBuzzard, A steaming pie badge? What's better than pie?
[01:24:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> i was thinkin like a piece of bacon or something
[01:24:43] <paulej72> cherry pie :)
[01:24:54] <juggs> paulej72, we need medals and achievements and animated badges!!
[01:24:57] * juggs runs away
[01:25:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> guess we could just use a submarine
[01:26:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, needs even more awesome
[01:26:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> I just want different colors (or flavors?) of soylent
[01:26:57] <SpallsHurgenson> Flash games!
[01:27:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> juggs, we had achievements, we just didn't wanna make em work
[01:27:35] <paulej72> they were working, just a bit annoying
[01:27:36] <juggs> I'm not surprised the motivation-fu was lacking on that one :D
[01:27:40] <AndyTheAbsurd> soylent green = heavy submitter; soylent red = high accepted submission ratio; soylent blue = subscriber
[01:27:55] <juggs> how would that work with the various themes?
[01:27:56] <ciri> you talking to me?
[01:28:09] * TheMightyBuzzard ponders
[01:28:10] <juggs> no ciri, go back to sleep
[01:28:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> could just change the font color on the name. bonus points to us if we don't explain why, ever.
[01:29:07] <paulej72> just put a jelly badge next to the user name.
[01:29:58] <juggs> be all... "If you need to ask, then you couldn't handle the answer."
[01:29:58] <ciri> me too, smoke time! juggs
[01:30:25] <paulej72> crack head ciri
[01:30:39] <juggs> ciri, don't sleep in bed, you'll set yourself on fire.
[01:30:49] <juggs> wtf!
[01:30:55] <juggs> smoke not sleep lol

[01:31:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> ciri, don't sleep in bed, I'll set you on fire.
[01:31:30] <juggs> perhaps.. just don't ever sleep
[01:31:42] <paulej72> juggs: if it helps I read it as smoke
[01:32:04] -!- silverly has quit [Quit: Web client closed]
[01:32:12] <chromas> maybe a little crown icon for submission kings
[01:32:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> maybe just a bottle of crown for them and skip the icon.
[01:33:06] * SpallsHurgenson disagrees with everything
[01:33:10] <juggs> paulej72, wonderful how the mind does that magitrickery replacement thing so things actually make sense.
[01:33:12] <chromas> an icon that's a picture of the bottle would be cheaper
[01:33:24] <juggs> SpallsHurgenson, you live to disagree :D
[01:33:30] <SpallsHurgenson> no I don't!
[01:33:37] <juggs> :P
[01:34:22] <juggs> reminded me of the Monty Python argument sketch there for a moment
[01:34:50] <SpallsHurgenson> this isn't an argument; this is contradiction!
[01:34:59] <juggs> no it isn't!
[01:36:48] <chromas> No par-tays, no shindigs, no keggers, no hootenannies, no mixers, no raves, no box socials!
[01:36:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, i'm doin up a geocities theme for april 1.
[01:37:14] <juggs> you should have kept that up your sleeve
[01:37:14] <chromas> with animated gifs?
[01:37:26] <juggs> scrolling text
[01:37:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> and the under construction sign in place of the logo
[01:37:39] <juggs> sparkly star background
[01:37:41] <chromas> he kind of is; secretly, it's actually going to be a tripod theme
[01:37:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> it may be a twitter theme, you never know
[01:38:23] <chromas> make all the topic icons animated too
[01:39:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> honestly, pj is prolly gonna hafta come up with whatever we do april 1
[01:39:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'll be spending spare time working on the api i think
[01:39:23] <juggs> I vote for full blown Web2.0 fappery with faux social media share encouragement type things that popup over anything you try to mouse over.
[01:39:23] <chromas> cyan
[01:39:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> juggs, like buttons!
[01:39:38] * chromas likes this
[01:39:47] <paulej72> beta
[01:39:56] <juggs> likes and +1 for sure
[01:39:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> ooof, you're evil
[01:40:03] <chromas> comic sans ms
[01:40:19] <chromas> and clippit in the corner
[01:40:30] <paulej72> very large pictures with lots and lots of white space
[01:40:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> paulej72, work up a proper "looks like /. beta" theme and you win grand prankster of the year.
[01:40:48] <paulej72> 18pt body text
[01:41:23] <juggs> "I see you're trying to read Soylent News, let me help you with that." Then reflow the layout so it's a complete mess.
[01:41:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> har
[01:41:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> randomly float left or right every div
[01:42:09] <chromas> make it load every bug and tracker script on the internet
[01:42:34] * juggs kickbans chromas :you went too far
[01:42:44] <paulej72> javascript to mess with clicks so that clicking on a link move sthe mouse away
[01:42:55] <juggs> hah
[01:43:14] <juggs> unclickable links. Ohh so many ways to fool around.
[01:43:44] <chromas> halloween could use a theme too. The ghost of beta past haints you
[01:43:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> speaking of unclickable links... goddamned firefox bug!
[01:44:08] <juggs> not come across that one tmb
[01:44:17] <paulej72> halloween theme for slash. all orange and black
[01:44:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> you will when bitpay goes live. have to click several times on the link in FF to get it to work sometimes. every other browser we tried it's fine in.
[01:44:56] <chromas> giant pictures like for April 1 except they'll be screenshots of the slash code. Now that's scary

[01:47:10] <paulej72> or at least the slashd log

[01:48:51] <paulej72> I like coment better than ajax

[01:57:27] <juggs> damn and I just had brain wave (or a PTSD flash back) - a really slowly loading 200MB SWF intro page when users hit the site - with no visible means of escape... just a slowly creeping "Loading...." bar. :D
[01:58:21] <chromas> now, does it start from 0? Or is it like a floppy disk where it jumps to 99% for a while?
[01:59:41] <juggs> well the percentage can obviously jump all over the place, but also a randomly changing kbps figure for how fast it is downloading. And yes I deliberately didn't capitalise kbps :D
[02:00:18] <chromas> oh yes! "Well, it was 59% but we just found out there's more than we thought, so now it's 12%"
[02:00:20] <juggs> or more annoying kb/Ps or some other nonsensical unit
[02:00:57] <chromas> switch to baud. Please reseat your handset in the accoustic coupler

[02:03:25] * juggs is wading through the commentary to NCommander's article. Some interesting thoughts on moderation.
[02:09:28] * chromas submits article; notes that the history disappeared
[02:10:32] <juggs> what history?
[02:10:47] <chromas> my submission history
[02:10:52] <chromas> Not that I wanted to see it
[02:11:16] <chromas> The Accepted % row seems new
[02:16:03] <juggs> That's interesting, I only see my most recent submission in there (Sept 17th). Maybe some time limit was introduced there in recent updates, or maybe it was always so :/ Would need paulej72 or TheMightyBuzzard to confirm that - unless someone wants to grapple with github to figure out.
[02:16:19] <chromas> could be. I haven't submitted in months
[02:16:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> wut?
[02:16:37] <chromas> we're just pinging you. ding ding ding
[02:16:45] <juggs> sorry TMB thought you went bye-byes.
[02:16:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> passing by on the way to bed. no worries.
[02:17:57] <juggs> When submitting an article there is a list of previous submitted. Did that get limited recently or was it always time limited and we only just noticed?
[02:19:16] <chromas> https://www.eff.org
[02:19:23] <chromas> old but I don't recall seeing it go by
[02:20:18] <juggs> I saw it other places.
[02:21:16] * chromas is the slashdot of submitters
[02:22:26] <SpallsHurgenson> I think that would make me the pipedot :)
[02:23:09] <chromas> used to b a pipedot channel on freenods. Nobody used it though
[02:23:18] <juggs> AAGH! I am sick and tired of my carrier terminating my connections because they think they are idle. Effing CGNAT needs to die already.
[02:25:26] <chromas> "You are using an outdated browser. Please upgrade to the latest version for the best MSN experience."
[02:25:34] <chromas> It doesn't even gimme a link to IE or anything
[02:26:10] <SpallsHurgenson> of course it doesn't; saying to use IE is okay, but providing a link counts as a terrorist act :)
[02:26:52] <chromas> we just need to put out the bait and get 'em to say it
[02:27:05] <chromas> then we'll be rid once and for five minutes until they issue a bribe

[04:32:52] <mrcoolbp> juggs = P
[04:33:49] <SpallsHurgenson> your ideas intrigue me and I am interested in subscribing to your newsletter
[04:42:36] <juggs> arti, yeh it kind of got to that point. But now you mention it, if it had 5 wheels it may not have derailed so easily. I'll incorporate 6 wheels next time, that's got to be better. I'll put on or two on the handle perhaps....
[04:52:10] <arti> wheel #5 is usually on the back of a worthy vehicle.
[04:58:21] <juggs> didn't they do away with that in favour of a can of spray foam? After all, most people only take their kids to school in them, why supply a spare wheel when it can be an optional "rugged pack" extra? :D

[10:21:06] <crutchy> once upon a time i might have had a crack at it, but i now know that i would get so far before seeing another shiny unicorn and adding it to my now long list of unfinished projects
[10:21:36] <crutchy> though it might make a good open source thing on github
[10:21:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> ditto but i got good drugs now so i finish stuff
[10:22:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> you ever meet a proper dev who isn't on brain drugs, you should suggest they get on them quick
[10:22:44] <crutchy> a plugin-based approach (kinda like slash hah) might work. keep the core simple, and add features that you like
[10:23:54] <crutchy> dynamically load plugins with forms that add a tab to a page control
[10:24:11] <TheMightyBuzzard> sounds reasonable
[10:24:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> has to all be written in perl though if it's gonna be for SN
[10:25:17] <crutchy> or in containers on other forms... plugins inside plugins... how perverse
[10:25:40] <crutchy> if it were me i'd use good ol' delphi 7

[18:51:25] <crutchy> they're too busy sipping tea
[18:51:29] <Bytram> =)
[18:53:02] * crutchy likes the 'billy elliot' movie. shows a bit more of the gritty aspects of life in britain (or anywhere really)
[18:53:47] <crutchy> besides 'snatch' that is. that's always no. 1
[18:53:58] <Bytram> crutchy: out of curiosity, did you submit your story as "HTML" or as "Plain old Text"?
[18:53:59] <chromas> snatch++
[18:53:59] <Bender> karma - snatch: 2
[18:54:18] <crutchy> dunno. default i guess
[18:54:50] <crutchy> i keep forgetting to pick a topic too. submissions are much too complimicated :p
[18:55:14] <Bytram> k. seems like every other submission comes through with "<br> <br>" where a "<p>" would ordinarily be -- was trying to see if there was an obvious pattern
[18:56:19] <crutchy> chromas, we need a //submit or ~submit script, yeah?
[18:56:42] <crutchy> ooh
[19:00:40] <crutchy> ~suggest community-building: free subscription to SN as prize for various activities, such as coding/bugsmashing comps, 50x+5 comments, etc (sorry not many ideas). not sure of legalities of prizes
[19:00:53] <exec> *** suggestion successfully added to wiki - http://sylnt.us
[19:01:02] * Bytram waits for you to realize you'd be wanting to specify a subject, and formatting for multiple paragraphs, and for links and ...
[19:01:12] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - An Interview with the Man Whose Drone was Shot Down in New Jersey - http://sylnt.us - so-every-model-aircraft-is-now-a-drone?
[19:01:17] <crutchy> script could do that
[19:01:21] <crutchy> :)
[19:01:32] <crutchy> automagic
[19:02:02] <crutchy> ~submit <url>
[19:03:30] <chromas> suggest free subscription for doing whatever activities I happen to have done :D
[19:04:09] <Bytram> crutchy: would prefer we NOT do that; given past experiences, it would stuff our story queue with all sorts of blather and spam in no time.
[19:04:16] <crutchy> not sure how well it would do it. might be a bit too tricky maybe. not hard to clean most of the shit out of html and pock out things like subjects, match/count keywords to (try) pick topic, insert link
[19:04:28] <crutchy> but yeah might be a nuisance
[19:04:42] <crutchy> hence why i disabled commenting scripty
[19:04:53] <Bytram> nod nod
[19:06:04] <crutchy> chromas, yes that too :)
[19:06:44] <crutchy> was more thinking future organized activities. unfortunately since i mostly comment A/C i don't get many +5 comments
[19:07:44] <chromas> submissions get you two karmas I think
[19:07:51] <chromas> (accepted)
[19:08:09] <Bytram> chromas: hmmm, I thought it was 3
[19:08:28] <chromas> oh could be. more than one anyhow. Easy climb to 50
[19:08:35] <chromas> oh except for the work of submitting
[19:08:40] <crutchy> already maxed out karma. now i can just sit back and relax :p
[19:08:49] <chromas> yup
[19:09:00] * Bytram has mod points. =)
[19:09:13] <chromas> could buy soylent dollars and when I get enough then buy a subscription
[19:09:34] <chromas> 40 karmas == 1 soylent dollar
[19:10:02] <crutchy> yeah i reckon we need some game aspects to the site for community building
[19:10:35] <Bytram> crutchy: like: whack-a-troll ?
[19:10:36] <crutchy> didn't go down well with some when it was discussed a while ago. you prolly remember
[19:11:08] <chromas> trollctl start
[19:11:46] <chromas> make karma a float, then make modifiers use fractions
[19:12:14] <Bytram> afk; back in a bit
[19:12:30] <crutchy> Bytram, mobile games often have game credits that you 'earn' by doing things in the game (akin to SN karma) but also have a second tier in-game currency that is harder to aquire for free (but usully purchasable). then you can redeem the currencies for useless shit :)
[19:12:55] <crutchy> sorry prolly stating the bleeding obvious there :/
[19:14:11] <crutchy> we just need to remove karma limit and come up with useless shit that people can spend it on rather than blowing it on trolling
[19:14:22] <chromas> stock enough SDs and then I can go to the soylent store and buy me a fuck beta mug
[19:14:28] <paulej72> karma to buy mod points
[19:14:58] <crutchy> maybe 500 karma => 12 month sub
[19:15:12] <crutchy> 40 karma = 5 mod points
[19:15:18] <chromas> teach the value of saving
[19:15:33] <crutchy> 10 karma => IRC cloak
[19:16:22] <crutchy> 300 karma => 50 char text advert in footer for a day
[19:16:44] <crutchy> 600 for a week
[19:17:02] <crutchy> then make karma purchasable with real money
[19:17:35] <crutchy> would need abuse controls, but that's just code :p
[19:18:16] <crutchy> anyone with 'microsoft.com' in their email is banned from buying karma
[19:18:21] <Bytram> 1.) create some shill accounts with my friends; 2.) moderate 3.) ... 4.) Profit!
[19:18:49] <chromas> ooh, we could all do that. start guilds too
[19:18:51] <crutchy> meh. shitty moderation is already a problem. don't need to pay for it
[19:19:13] <Bytram> yeah, beware of unintended consequences.
[19:19:20] <crutchy> nod nod
[19:19:43] <chromas> should change all the mod names too
[19:19:59] <chromas> "nod nod", "smh", "wtf", "aw yeah"
[19:20:15] <crutchy> i think a lot of mod problems would go away if there were no negative mods (cos all the mod problems seem to relate to negative mods)
[19:20:34] <crutchy> chromas, s/wtf/omgwtfbbq/
[19:20:34] <SedBot9000> <crutchy> <chromas> "nod nod", "smh", "omgwtfbbq", "aw yeah"
[19:20:58] <Bytram> paulej72: I'm having some challenges in a story I have in the queue where I am using <pre><code> ... the font looks *much* smaller than the rest in my browser. http://soylentnews.org
[19:20:59] <monopoly> ^ I can't!
[19:20:59] <crutchy> just need 'flag spam' link
[19:21:04] <crutchy> hahaha
[19:21:10] <crutchy> monopoly++
[19:21:10] <Bender> karma - monopoly: 14
[19:21:21] <chromas> "o/" for brohumor comments
[19:21:24] <Bytram> looks like *each* of <pre> and <code> have font-size: .813em
[19:21:55] <Blackmoore> O.o
[19:21:56] <crutchy> and there's the ol' random space appearing in those too
[19:22:00] <Bytram> which ends up being: .813 * .813 = .661
[19:22:04] <paulej72> bytram that has been fixed in dev
[19:22:15] <paulej72> will go out this weekend
[19:22:30] * chromas wonders why inkscape always starts as a tiny box in the corner
[19:22:33] <paulej72> it is a browser issue where monospaced fonts are resized
[19:22:44] <crutchy> chromas, it likes tight
[19:23:09] <chromas> Score: 3, o/
[19:23:17] <Bytram> ah. any suggestions on what I can do for now? I tried adding a style attribute to the code element, but it got stripped, as fdar as I could tell.
[19:23:41] <crutchy> -1, nah brah
[19:23:45] <crutchy> :)
[19:23:45] <Bytram> no biggie, just annoying is all.
[19:24:02] <paulej72> don’t use pre or code :)
[19:24:21] <SirFinkus> watching the ebola press conference, this is surreal
[19:24:23] <Bytram> but it *is* code! =)
[19:24:36] <SirFinkus> it's like those fake news reports at the begining of zombie movies
[19:24:39] <paulej72> hold off on the story until Sunday
[19:24:40] <crutchy> convert all your symbolic jiggery pokery to &n; chars :p
[19:24:53] <Bytram> hmm, maybe I can get away with using *just* pre?
[19:24:58] <paulej72> Bytram: as a test try it on dev
[19:25:05] <Bytram> k
[19:25:15] <paulej72> pre and code are basically the same
[19:25:18] <crutchy> pre tags should monospace by default
[19:25:34] <paulej72> ^
[19:25:47] <paulej72> should not really nest them
[19:26:39] <Bytram> looks okay in dev's preview area
[19:26:48] <crutchy> i thought <code> was just a slash alias for <pre> anyway
[19:26:51] <crutchy> ?
[19:27:06] <crutchy> except maybe with some extra css
[19:27:07] <Bytram> nope; that is a valid HTML entity
[19:27:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> code also means don't strip out some of the stuff we normally would
[19:27:29] <Bytram> crutchy: now, ECODE -- that's a slash thing, IIRC.
[19:27:53] <chromas> crutchy: you can specify a language with code
[19:27:59] * crutchy did not realize <code> was valid html
[19:28:06] <chromas> I think. or maybe that's wiki
[19:28:10] <paulej72> as is kbd samp and tt
[19:28:15] <Bytram> hmm,, klingon?
[19:28:59] <Bytram> on prod, with just code; all the text gets dropped onto a single line; line-breaks are ignored.
[19:29:02] <paulej72> If you use the code format style in slash it puts it tt tags (tt is for teletype)
[19:29:26] * Bytram is trying it now with just "<pre>"
[19:30:12] <Bytram> okay, so now it is on multiple lines, but with font-size: .813em;
[19:30:19] <Bytram> better than it was!
[19:30:24] <Bytram> thanks!
[19:30:37] <crutchy> does it have random spaces inserted in the preview?
[19:30:52] <Bytram> no
[19:31:17] <Bytram> your submission came through with a proportional font and I just couldn't leave it like that. =)
[19:32:15] * Bytram has reached 100MB of a purported 140MB download of google's noto unicode font
[19:32:56] <crutchy> my submission?
[19:33:08] <crutchy> was it submitted plain ol' text?
[19:34:07] <paulej72> plain ol’ text is still proortional font
[19:34:19] <crutchy> hmm <code> space weirdness seems to have gone. i noticed it in my early journals
[19:34:29] <Bytram> can't tell from here. All that means, (as far as I know) is whether you can just type type and get the story in, or, if you use "HTML Formatted" you can use a (subset) of HTML directly in the submission (e.g. <p>, <a href="..">stuff</a>, etc.)
[19:35:01] <crutchy> i think i just use plain ol' text for everything prolly. i don't type any html in SN
[19:35:30] <Bytram> okay, that helps me understand what is coming my way! thanks for the info!
[19:35:42] <crutchy> shit 5.30. gotta get up in a couple of hrs. better get some shuteye
[19:37:54] <Bytram> crutchy: sleep fast, my friend.
[19:42:08] <chromas> Ooh, the comment + icon in compressed svg form is 927 bytes
[19:43:19] <Bytram> is that good? bad?
[19:43:58] <chromas> small
[19:44:09] <Bytram> oh, then it's good, then.
[19:44:14] <chromas> On high dpi displays, the icons are way tinier than the text
[19:44:25] <chromas> So I thought maybe some svgs could be of use
[19:44:40] <chromas> set them to .9em or whatever and they should be the right size at all times
[19:44:51] <Bytram> ahhh, now I get it.
[19:44:55] <Bytram> good idea!
[19:47:01] <chromas> IE does svgs now, right?
[19:47:26] <Bytram> i don't know; haven't used it in a long while.
[19:48:04] <swiss> ,win 20
[19:48:08] <swiss> hurrr
[19:48:32] <chromas> If mozilla and systemd can do it, why can't windows?

[20:15:46] <paulej72> Bytram: your fix is now on dev. also I have removed the pre and code size setting to .813em
[20:16:03] <Bytram> paulej72: wow! that was fast!
[20:16:34] <Bytram> paulej72: I found something else, though. take a look at the story submission queue on dev
[20:17:39] <paulej72> yes html is not encoded in the title until after turning it into a story
[20:18:02] <Bytram> it gets even worse if the title starts with a </td> or a </tr>
[20:18:15] <paulej72> crap
[20:18:21] <Bytram> yup.
[20:19:24] <Bytram> I was able to put a story in the queue which started with a </tr> and I had to extract the submission ID and hand-craft a URL in order to do anything to it.
[20:19:47] <paulej72> lol
[20:20:33] <Bytram> oh, you can ONLY imagine.
[20:20:36] <paulej72> ok I’ll need to look into running the sub title through the html sanitizer
[20:20:42] <Bytram> nod nod
[20:20:56] <paulej72> should be straight forward enough
[20:21:03] <Bytram> once it gets to the editors, then it's okay to allow HTML entities in the title, we need 'em sometimes.
[20:21:59] <Bytram> does the sanitizer *remove* the html elements, or does it just replace all "<" with "&lt;" and ">" with "&gt;" >
[20:22:20] <Bytram> s/>$/?/
[20:22:20] <SedBot9000> <Bytram> does the sanitizer *remove* the html elements, or does it just replace all "<" with "&lt;" and ">" with "&gt;" ?

[21:06:43] <Bytram> paulej72: hmm, so a bug in the inherited code?
[21:08:16] <paulej72> I just now deed to find the correct strip_ sub to do what I want.
[21:08:51] <crutchy> strip_clothes?
[21:09:35] <Bytram> paulej72: do you really want to strip them out? Would it not be better to just convert them to character entities: "<" would become "&lt;" and ">" would become "&gt;"
[21:10:01] <paulej72> that is what the strip_ functions do.
[21:10:14] <paulej72> if you get the correct one.
[21:10:45] <Bytram> oh. that doesn't sound like "strip" to me. I'd think strip means, for example: s/[<>]//g
[21:10:48] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Fedora Mailing List Discusses Replacement of Bash - http://sylnt.us - bash-dash-ash-mish-mash
[21:12:46] <paulej72> some of them do strip things, but they also replace and do other stuff
[21:15:00] <crutchy> maybe they should be clean_ functions instead of strip_ functions
[21:15:12] <crutchy> pedantic++
[21:15:12] <Bender> karma - pedantic: 1
[21:15:23] <Bytram> paulej72: seems like they originally started with a function or two that actually stripped stuff, and then came up with others that were more transformative. forgive me for being pedantic.
