Is it possible to delete the history/files directory in an item using the IA CLI tool? I've tried a few combinations but it doesn't seem to recognise it as a valid directory or any files within it.
-
JAA
Yes
-
JAA
Or well, at least it was possible last time I tried.
-
JAA
Well, actually no. You can't delete the *directory*. But you can delete the files in it, and once the dir is empty, it gets removed (like any other empty dir).
-
JAA
You'll want to pass `-H x-archive-keep-old-version:0`, otherwise it will will move history/files/foo.~1~ to history/files/history/files/foo.~1~.~1~...
-
dxrt
Ah yep, I've had that pain before. So I can delete if I specificy /files/history/data/d.tgz but it doesn't allow me to do /files/history/data or /files/history/data/*
-
JAA
Yeah, `ia delete identifier history/files/data/d.tgz -H x-archive-keep-old-version:0` should work, and if that's the only file in there, the directories get removed automatically.
-
dxrt
I've got thousands of files unfortunately
-
dxrt
I just want to nuke everything
-
JAA
:-|
-
dxrt
So annoying
-
JAA
`ia list identifier | grep pattern | xargs ia delete ...` or something like that I guess.
-
JAA
It'll delete each file individually though, and in my experience that takes a few seconds for each file.
-
flashfire42
May I ask why you want to delete them?
-
dxrt
Thanks JAA, I'll do it that way.
-

So bit of a long story, but I was uploading a lot of files. Low memory VPS so the process kept getting killed. I used --checksum to avoid re-uploading the files and re-ran the upload over a few times over a few days. --checksum didn't actually work because it was in a derive or something, so the same files uploaded multiple times and then ended up in the /history/files as duplicates.
-
dxrt
-
JAA
Heh
-
aleph
JAA: Can't use -P with xargs for some reason there? Or is just obviated away?
-
JAA
aleph: You just also need -n or -I or similar.
-
aleph
Point ya
-
JAA
I don't remember whether the CLI accepts the header option before the identifier/filename, so you might need -I anyway to insert the filename at the right position.
-
rewby
JAA: So to continue from -bs. You're right they're not elected directly. You elect members of the "tweede kamer". Which then have to agree on and form the cabinet.
-
JAA
I'd assume the Dutch system is similar to most European countries: general election for parliament, majority elects a PM who then needs to form a government.
-
rewby
Kinda
-
rewby
There's more involvement from the parliament
-
JAA
Ah yeah, reading now on Wikipedia, interesting.
-
rewby
They negotiate a coalition of parties that form a majority
-
rewby
And from there we get the PM

Who then gets to nominate members

Yeah, it's a bit messy

Ah well now we are fully out of EU, we're working on leaving Europe. We've got a referendum coming up to decide which state we want to neighbour when we land in the US. They're currently preparing to frack along our east coast. They estimate around ~8yrs before we hit mainland US.

Do you really have a thing for bicycles in the netherlands, or is a meme that has got a life of it's own?
-
rewby
A little of both
-
rewby
We really do spend a lot of effort on bike infrastructure. Especially in cities
-
rewby
And kids learn to cycle very early on
-
rewby
And we even made it so that when a bike has an accident with a car, the car is at fault by default. (even if the bike really did it)
-
JAA
There are also more bikes in NL than people.

I believe it's the only country where that's true.

The continents will continue to drift from their current locations. They've split and merged repeatedly over millions of years. Not that I expect humanity to last that long, due to our own destructive tendencies. Which is a sobering thought when I consider the time and effort we put into archiving stuff. But here's to hoping. Maybe just maybe things will work out.

US Senate Majority Leader McConnell is a Kentucky senator. He's been a major power center in US policy for many many years. And has made many a policy that fits on that leopards subreddit.

atphoenix: Speaking of McConnell, I wonder when exactly he'll stop being the Majority Leader. I guess whenever Warnock, Ossoff, and Harris are sworn in, but I'm not really sure.
-
atphoenix
JAA: it's a bit complicated. This article has a decent explanation, but basically comes down to Jan 20 or slightly after. :
web.archive.org/web/20210115182321/…0-11eb-acc5-92d2819a1ccb_story.html
-
atphoenix
State of Georgia needs to complete election certification before Warnock and Ossoff can be seated, and Harris needs to be replaced in Senate too.
-
JAA
Ah, I wasn't aware of the replacement for Harris, right.
-
JAA
I believe the Georgia counties have to certify results by today, but the state has time until the 22nd.
-
atphoenix
I think the Democrats are 'okay' with McConnell still being majority leader at the moment, and may even prefer it as it puts some pressure on McConnell. He appears to be ready to break with DT (having little further use for a damaged DT). DT cannot be convicted by the Senate without some GOP assistance, regardless matter who controls the Senate, as conviction requires 2/3 majority.
-
JAA
Right
-
Dallas
Am I right I’m saying once the Georgian senators are in it’s an even number of dems and republicans so they only have the majority when Biden is in the White House bc the vps vote breaks a tie in the senate ?
-
JAA
Depends on when Harris resigns. Her vote as President of the Senate only comes into play at 50-50, and until Padilla is sworn in, it could be 50 R v 49 D.
-
JAA
As soon as all four are sworn in, it'll be D majority.
