after the original pantuitist "kick out all competent colonels because muh precious cuntlets", time for an erdogan-like "kick out the pantsuits".

lol meanwhile dorion_road went silent sometime last month. how goes, you ?

11:04

wtf is this nonsense, first drastically overshoot, then get fatigued, then run away. there's a reason you don't http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-12-12#1955110, and this'd be that reason.

11:12

spyked: I gave up and unsubscribed from trilema's comments, feedbot confirmed (<feedbot> diana_coman is now unsubscribed from http://trilema.com/comments/feed/) and then 1 minute later, promptly fed me 2 more trilema comments; am I doing something wrong?

11:13

by the looks of it, it's still going too, ugh.

11:15

and uhm, now there's no trilema.com feed in the output of !1 list, neither for comments nor for posts, unless I'm somehow just not seeing it; weird stuff.

~ 1 hours 11 minutes ~

12:27

oops

12:28

on the good news front, tearing through 2018 nao, so shan't be long i don't expect.

12:38

perhaps we further found some bug(s) in feedbot given the above so even more good news and fronts and all that!

12:41

:p

~ 52 minutes ~

13:34

diana_coman, could you plox send me a transcript of your convo with feedbot? I wanna cross-check with what I have on my side. I think I got why the messages got sent after you unsubscribed, but it's weird that all trilema.com feeds would get removed (were you previously subscribed to anything other than the comments feed?)

13:34

what happens is that the notifications can remain in the queue even after you unsubscribe, and there's usually some delay between when they get pushed and the time they're sent

13:38

spyked: I was subscribed to both articles and comments feed afaik; let me rummage through old logs as I prolly have another earlier !1 list and will give you a paste of it all.

13:38

ok, ty

13:42

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-08#1956685 <-- imo this is indeed a bug, I think that subscription removal should be synchronous

13:45

spyked: http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=FtVi

13:46

I looked back on previous !1 list and it seems there's no problem there actually aka indeed I had subscribed only to comments rss for trilema (weird but not the bot's fault)

13:47

so it's just the async unsubscribe issue remaining; sorry for the false alarm on the other bit.

13:48

also, by now it apparetly finished whatever it had queued since it's finally quiet; so the async as you describe it seems to fit.

13:51

spyked: let me know if you need any other info from my end.

13:52

*

spyked breathes relieved. just reread the unsubscribe code and it's conceived so that the bot only operates on exactly one feed when the command is issued. would have been very bad news to observe this kind of misbehaviour

13:53

will have the async issue fixed and tested by the end of the week

~ 22 minutes ~

14:16

poor spyked's getting like the largest count of these, "sorry, turns out bot was ok" things

~ 35 minutes ~

14:51

lol. well, feedbot is still relatively young, glad it's getting some scrutiny

14:53

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-08#1956668 << It *should* be ready, but... I suspect una falta de hombres to do anything at this point. Unless Donald's "Space Force" is some sort of jokey cover for returning to pre-tailhook aviation culture.

15:02

so he can get the arizona ranchers getting free govt dole, instead of the ohio horseface whatsername wanna-be careerwomen

15:04

Sure, but they'd have to be brought in. I dunno if the US military has anyone loyal in uniform today above E-5 or O-2

15:06

by the pantsuit favourite metric tho, ie headcount, nobody above e2 counts anyway

15:08

I though the bulk of the headcount sat at E-4. It's the "auto-promotions end, so you sit here until your contract expires" rank

15:08

besides, he's supreme commander. he literally can do ~anything~ in the army, including appointment of corporals.

15:09

Make Brevet Great Again!

15:09

much like the entire lulz with "impeachment" six or seven versions ago, back when it was "mishandling of secret documents",

15:09

idiots accidentally forgot "secret" strictly means "in keeping with this one guy's faith", he can do anything he wants whatsoever, you're stuck doing exactly what he expects.

15:09

Well, impeachmet is still "President can't overrule bureaucracy on Foreign Policy" coup attempt

15:10

i expect they similarily forgot he can literally do absolutely anything whatoever in the military, up to and including authoring drill manuals.

15:10

yea, that pretty much sums up the current struggle, yeah.

15:10

The impeachment thing from here reads pretty much strictly "Presidency as such dies for the bureaucracy"

15:10

hence the necessary result of "bureaucracy is thereby disenfranchised irl"

15:11

anyway, this is the sad result two centuries worth of asciilifeformism have wrought. and apparently the imbecile "smart" kids are still not quite ready to wake up in any sort of numbers.

15:12

cuz muh pantry & muh p. cuntlet, or some dumb shit.

15:13

i suppose the alternative read counts from the manhattan project onwards, so it's only 70-odd years, one third the timespan. but neways.

15:14

Well, we can probably put Vannevar Bush's name on "empowered Engineers into sinking empire"

15:15

i wonder if anyone to date's noticed the entire hsitory of pop culture, 1950-onwards, all the comics / superheroes / etc fiction is entirely an attempt at retelling that history in the proper (ie, alternate) form from a pantsuit point of view

15:15

"what if the scientists didn't give the bomb to the bureaucracy, but to the president ???" "oh it'd have been so SO very bad!! SUPERCRIMINALVILLAINS" "you mean, actual vir-ile, men ?" "YEAH!!!"

15:15

"aite, go-go-captain-shorts-over-pants"

15:16

The few I've seen in the wild that notice this seem to mostly fall into the "Pop-culture was a KGB psyop" camp

15:19

Before I came to Uruguay I was somewhat inclined to that, but being here and seeing how the retards down here created their own Pantsuits... seems more like what follows from mass distribution of franchise. Mass culture develops, and it ain't much of a culture at all.

<dorion> http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-08#1956674 << I returned to Panama Monday from travels and was quite jet lagged and sleep deprived. I was pleasantly surprised to have a lot of fun on the cruise, hawaii was a lot nicer than I expected.

17:11

I've been paying off sleep debt and settling back in here, ready to get caught up and cracking again.
