  1. [twisti]i never signed any contributor release forms for my factoids, i demand compensation and representation!
  2. odinsbane~compensation
  3. javabotodinsbane, what does that even *mean*?
  4. odinsbane~representation
  5. javabotodinsbane, what does that even *mean*?
  6. odinsbane~representation is <reply> Find out who authored your favorite factoids at https://javabot.evanchooly.com/factoids
  7. javabotOK, odinsbane.
  8. nevetodinsbane mentioned url: https://javabot.evanchooly.com/factoids ("javabot")
  9. odinsbaneWow 3417 factoids.
  10. odinsbane[twisti]: 25 factoid you most recent being emacs
  11. odinsbanerecently used... I could definitely see some compensation for somebody.
  12. ParaAs per GDPR the factoids with nicks attached is in fact Personal Data (PD definition is "any information which can be linked to a real person directly or indirectly") but I vote for convenienty ignoring that.
  13. [twisti]odinsbane: its even more complicated - the emacs one, for example, isnt mine, i just tacked on the xkcd comic (i think)
  14. odinsbaneI was thinking you'd be charged for encouraging people to use emacs.
  15. [twisti]i would never
  16. dreamrealemacs is recent because if-p-then-q :D
  17. dreamrealI'm mostly migrating some of the best factoids, with jwz and the laws being the first
  18. dreamrealand that gives me a chance to stress some of the features, as a result
  19. dreamrealmigrating some of the factoids is a pain because the structure of factoids in nevet is different
  20. dreamrealit's doable to just copy them across but that removes some of the things the factoid system is designed for
  21. Paradreamreal: this might be very timley for you https://letsencrypt.org/2026/02/18/dns-persist-01.html
  22. javabotPara's title: "DNS-PERSIST-01: A New Model for DNS-based Challenge Validation - Let's Encrypt"
  23. nevetPara mentioned url: https://letsencrypt.org/2026/02/18/dns-persist-01.html ("DNS-PERSIST-01: A New Model for DNS-based Challenge Validation")
  24. Para...timely
  25. dreamrealI can read, para
  26. dreamreal"timley" for timely is hardly the worst I'll have seen
  27. dreamrealoooo that WOULD be nice
  28. dreamrealdo they support it yet?
  29. ParaI think rollout started literally yesterday.
  30. dreamrealI mean, that was published yesterday, what's the holdup?
  31. dreamreal~certbot
  32. javabotdreamreal, what does that even *mean*?
  33. dreamrealpfft
  34. Para"Staging rollout is planned for late Q1 2026, with a production rollout targeted for some time in Q2 2026"
  35. dreamrealPara: I read it, yes
  36. ParaI don't feel like diving into their process docs, sooooo
  37. dreamrealbut you're right, that would address what I'm doing quite well :D
  38. Ramazanenescik04hi
  39. dreamrealmorning, etc
  40. dreamrealPara: I guess my main concern would be renewals... but I guess the process is: have the account, slap it into the DNS TXT as shown, then certbot checks the DNS and goes "oh TXT exists, here's your cert sir"?
  41. dreamrealand relies on the local account configuration to validate that YOU actually deserve said cert?
  42. ParaApparently so.
  43. dreamrealWell, they need to hurry up
  44. dreamrealwill write a very sternly worded email right now
  45. BombeDang, DNS-PERSIST-01 looks beautiful!
  46. dreamrealBombe: you write a very sternly worded email too!
  47. dreamrealWe'll bombard them with sternness!
  48. ParaHello, is this the manager of Lets Encrypt? I would like to file a complaint!
  49. dreamrealmein Gott that is not how it's done
  50. BombeI would like to fil an appreciation!
  51. Bombes/fil/&e/
  52. dreamreal"I would like to file a correction, since you people needlessly failed to note a minor error in my last missive. Thou art dropping yon balls, knaves!"
  53. ParaIt goes without saying that they obviously have done it wrong and should instead fo what we tell them to do.
  54. dreamrealActually, "thou art dropping yon balls, knaves" is ... poorly done. Should definitely have been "Thou art droppething thy goode packets most grievously out of order, villains and knaves - yea, verily, sooth and forsooth! Egads! ... and I am moste offendedeth that thou hast not corrected even that error, sirrahs."
  55. dreamrealyou misspelled "of," para. What's rwong with you?
  56. Parafonly ans
  57. ParaI have a microcosm of stupid going on atm, including my keyboard being in a wonky location.
  58. dreamrealThat's the excuse I use, too, because I have three screens - THREE, fear me - and my keyboard is actually under the farthest rightmost.
  59. Paraalso, I just fixed 11 CVEs with one line of config and reduced size of deployment by like 40 megabytes, and found a broken test suite that's been under the radar for like half a year. All in one line.
  60. dreamrealPlus I have cats, and one of them LOOOOOVES to type. She is an atrocious speller.
  61. ParaI definitely should not partake in any kind of lottery for a while.
  62. dreamrealhah, wow on the CVEs - good job, mate.
  63. ParaDog ate my homework, cat did my taxes.
  64. * dreamreal writes that down
  65. ParaOur Jira sure is loving this PR.
  66. dragonmasterThere's always pawsense
  67. dreamrealdragonmaster: ... what

  69. javabotdragonmaster's title: "PawSense helps you catproof your computer, by protecting against cat typing but letting humans use the keyboard freely"
  70. nevetdragonmaster mentioned url: http://bitboost.com/pawsense/index.html ("PawSense helps you catproof your computer, by protecting against cat typing but letting humans use the keyboard freely")
  71. dragonmasterI'm convinced it was a joke, but you can never tell.
  72. dreamrealoh.
  73. dreamreal~ 5 minute rule
  74. javabotThe 5 minute rule states that you can not contribute to a conversation until you have listened to it for 5 minutes to gain context and understanding of where the conversation stands.
  75. dreamrealSorry, I'd lost context. I want my cat's inability to type exposed to the world, anyway! If she wants to be known as a better typist, she'd better get t' learning.
  76. * dreamreal pets Noelle to soften the blows of harsh reality. It's okay, baby. Not every tortie can spell worth a flip.
  77. * cheeser waves
  78. DoofusCanadensisdreamreal: you see this? https://letsencrypt.org/2026/02/18/dns-persist-01.html

  81. dreamrealDoofusCanadensis: no, but para showed it to me, so yes
  82. dreamrealbut those bastages haven't made it production code yet
