00:00:00 <JAA> And I kept the DBs so I could throw the outlinks into other projects.
00:00:43 <pabs> want to do that again? or should I just AB
00:01:20 <pabs> might also be worth googling for the software those use, might be additional instances
00:03:00 <JAA> I'm trying to get other things done, so I'd prefer not. I.e. just AB with outlinks enabled. Relevant URLs could always be extracted from the log and be fed to the appropriate other project for a more thorough coverage.
00:03:31 <JAA> (The ones I ran were with --no-offsite-links.)
00:33:05 <pabs> ok, will do them today
00:40:00 <anonlmao> Hello
00:40:47 <anonlmao> Hello again
00:45:50 <OrIdow6> hello anonlmao, what can we do for you?
00:49:41 <anonlmao> Yeah, I've been sniffing through Google about a build of Kubuntu 14.10
00:50:04 <anonlmao> For the uninitiated, Kubuntu released 2 versions of 14.10
00:51:12 <anonlmao> One is the stable KDE 4 release
00:51:26 <anonlmao> The other is the KDE 5 tech preview
00:51:52 <anonlmao> Now, the KDE Plasma 4 version is available
00:52:11 <anonlmao> But the KDE Plasma 5 one seems is lost
00:52:36 <anonlmao> I've been digging through Google for mirrors
00:52:51 <anonlmao> Old FTP mirrors that could potentially had it
00:53:18 <anonlmao> Filename:
00:53:21 <anonlmao> kubuntu-plasma5-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso
01:09:10 <Jake> anonlmao: https://archive.org/download/kubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64 has "kubuntu-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso"
01:10:41 <anonlmao> I'm finding the one with **plasma-5** on it
01:13:24 <JAA> It's not in any of the 446 IA items surfaced by a search for 'kubuntu'. More accurately, no files with names containing 'plasma5' in any of those.
01:15:04 <anonlmao> I'm also finding it through ftp archives
01:15:41 <anonlmao> That would be confusing and also,
01:15:59 <anonlmao> idk if the guys behind kubuntu still have them
01:16:05 <anonlmao> offline
01:23:03 <pabs> anonlmao: might be worth asking on their channel
01:52:56 <anonlmao> What do i miss?
01:55:03 <anonlmao> So yeah about that
02:18:20 <tech234a> nicolas17: (reading back a bit) I wonder if DALLE-2 or Stable Diffusion would work for Instagram selfie verification
02:19:23 <tech234a> Also Instagram posts were accessible from Threads yesterday but this has since been patched https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36621190
02:41:16 <anonlmao> Yeah. I'm back since web cache's a b
02:48:54 <imer> "Also Instagram posts were accessible from Threads yesterday but this has since been patched" that explains how there hasn't been any teething issues with scaling.. if they're just using the already working infra
02:49:21 <arkiver> it's very similar to meta yes
02:49:34 <arkiver> the requests they make too
02:49:44 <arkiver> pretty sure it's all on the same infrastructure

16:13:49 <JAA> pabs: Nice, thanks!
16:59:33 <arkiver> do we have some examples of discourse forums?
16:59:41 <arkiver> do any 'weird' or extremely customized variants exist?
17:00:42 <JAA> Only a wiki page full of them: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Discourse
17:01:03 <arkiver> wooh awesome!
17:01:30 <arkiver> how popular is discourse compared to other forum software? is it more of a certain type of people on there?
17:01:48 <Sanqui> I think it's more about recency
17:01:53 <JAA> Oh, GitHub Community shut down last year.
17:02:08 <Sanqui> forums started in the past 10 years are more likely to be discourse (or xenforo I guess)
17:02:44 <arkiver> i plan on using #// to discover all discourse forums we come across, and then get the continuously archived (new posts/comments) with a project
17:02:55 <arkiver> the posts have sequential IDs as far as i can see, so that can be nicely used
17:03:08 <Sanqui> sounds great, I would love to help adapt it to other forum software
17:03:26 <arkiver> we will!
17:03:40 <JAA> That'd be lovely. We really need to make better use of the data flowing through #//. :-)
17:03:52 <arkiver> JAA: indeed! we'll start extracting various interesting things
17:03:53 <arkiver> but
17:04:34 <arkiver> without actually reading the HTML in Lua, since that is pretty expensive. so we'll use the URLs Wget-AT itself extracts to determine if the webpage is likely from a discourse forum
17:04:47 <JAA> Ah
17:05:29 <JAA> Are we not doing URL extraction in Lua there then?
17:05:37 <arkiver> barely in #//
17:05:41 <JAA> I see.
17:05:44 <arkiver> it's expensive
17:05:47 <JAA> Yeah
17:06:14 <arkiver> but the recent more sophisticated spam/loop blocking also uses this new method or checking URLs extracted by Wget-AT to determine if something is likely spam
17:06:21 <arkiver> i think this will work well
17:07:15 <arkiver> if something seems to be discourse, we can actually read it do determine it for sure and then queue the discourse forum to a special project for further processing
17:07:49 <JAA> Sounds good.
17:12:28 <Sanqui> btw we have #msgbored
17:53:39 <fireonlive> imgur murdered their discourse based (iirc?) one as well a couple years ago
17:53:47 <fireonlive> oop
19:51:44 <albertlarsan68> If you need discourse forums, I think there is internals.rust-lang.org and users.rust-lang.org.
23:41:31 <pabs> albertlarsan68: please add those to the wiki page https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Discourse
