Remember when there was this whole controversy about the LOC getting all twitter posts older than 30 days? |
22:04
🔗
|
soultcer |
Back then someone create a website that would delete your tweets after 29 days |
22:04
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
no, there were people who cared? |
22:04
🔗
|

|

|

Nope, is.gd still works |

22:05
🔗

22:05
🔗
|
bsmith093 |

22:06
🔗
|
soultcer |

22:06

soultcer |

22:06
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
1/sec, what is this, dailup? |
22:06
🔗
|
soultcer |
haha |
22:07
🔗
|
bsmith093 |

22:07
🔗
|
ersi |

22:07
🔗
|
soultcer |
bsmith093: Not for is.gd I think, they changed something when they redesigned the site |
22:07
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
seriously how are we grabbing these? |
22:07
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
for the big ones like tirnurl? |
22:08
🔗
|
soultcer |
Using https://github.com/chronomex/urlteam and https://github.com/soult/tinyback mostly |
22:08
🔗
|
soultcer |
tinyback works pretty well on tinyurl |
22:08
🔗
|
soultcer |
Though I've got all of tinyurl with 6 letters or less |
22:08
🔗
|
soultcer |
7 Letters is a very very large space |

SketchCow: According to Google our website might have been "hacked" again (that dreamhost thing again) |
22:12
🔗
|
soultcer |
I can't find any changes though |
22:17
🔗
|
soultcer |
Well fuck it |
22:17
🔗
|
soultcer |
I just decided to rewrite tinyback in python |
22:17
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
so the urlteam code is NOT scriptnoob friendly |
22:18
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
im switching to tinyback, its more polular anyway |
22:18
🔗
|
soultcer |
bsmith093: Maybe not, but it's a lot less complicated than tinyback. Chronomex managed to write a simple scraper in a couple hundred lines that just works |
22:18
🔗
|
soultcer |
And it works with almost any service |
22:19
🔗
|
bsmith093 |
so whats the syntax, caust it doesnt really give any lues |
22:19
🔗
|
soultcer |

i hate shared hosting. especially with companies that don't seem to give a crap about sandboxing users as much as possible |
23:02
🔗
|
bsmith093 |

I love NearlyFreeSpeech.net, but it's kind of expensive for bigger sites |
