07:41 🔗 Coderjoe db48x2: today I got an email from one of my state's senators (whee... sending an email about an issue that concerns you gets you put on a mailing list). I opened it on my phone and it was blank except for 2 attachments, which I didn't view

19:29 🔗 underscor <underscor> http://i.imgur.com/xXh0n.png
20:47 🔗 Coderjoe db48x2: i haven't looked at the message more closely yet, but I think one attachment may be html and the other an image, and just an empty plain-text part
21:07 🔗 db48x2 it is fairly surprising that email works at all
21:12 🔗 db48x2 also, this is a well-reasoned article: http://socialmediacollective.org/2011/08/04/real-names-policies-are-an-abuse-of-power/

21:13 🔗 chronomex woop woop woop off-topic siren
21:20 🔗 alard db48x2: I saw that you cloned the wget-warc repository. Did you find/fix any problems?
22:16 🔗 db48x2 alard: did it partly because I thought I had already done so
22:17 🔗 db48x2 alard: but yes, there's a feature I wanted to discuss
22:17 🔗 db48x2 we ought to have a way to put metadata records in at the end of a job, to hold the script that created the warc file, for instance
22:17 🔗 db48x2 or at least the wget command line that created it
22:18 🔗 db48x2 (which wget could do automatically)
22:19 🔗 underscor db48x2: alard: I also noticed that with a big warc mirror, wget takes tons of memory
22:20 🔗 underscor (to the point that the oom killer attacks it
22:20 🔗 underscor )
22:57 🔗 db48x2 underscor: nice. haven't seen that
