| FatPhil | G/f who thinks asking me will be more efficient than asking here has gibbered on about some "ICd claims we are connected but refuses to provide state for the connected IAPs" messages in her syslog | 17:02 |
|---|---|---|
| FatPhil | she found her way to https://wiki.maemo.org/N900_dbus , but the interesting links to cncmods.net no longer work - domain has expired | 17:02 |
| KotCzarny | you know about web.archive.org ? | 17:03 |
| FatPhil | It used to be a favourite, before it became horrifically JS infected. | 17:04 |
| Wizzup | wait what, web.archive.org is js infected? | 17:04 |
| KotCzarny | unfortunatelly, yes | 17:04 |
| Wizzup | which parts? I'll relay to my colleagues | 17:04 |
| FatPhil | her browser of choice is w3m, you do the maths... | 17:04 |
| KotCzarny | and some js is broken with adblockers, which results in a temporary ban | 17:05 |
| Wizzup | I use umatrix and all the possible blockers and it works fine for me | 17:05 |
| FatPhil | It's also extremely unfriendly towards people with visual impairment - requires the ability to read tiny fonts. (the g/f's partially sighted too - hence her preference for w3m which she can run in an xterm with honking big fonts) | 17:08 |
| FatPhil | OK, first ever scrape of those pages seems to already be just a 301 error page. So they're apparently lost. | 17:09 |
| KotCzarny | [*] rip | 17:09 |
| ashley | indeed, the Internet Archive's been JS infested for quite many years now, unfortunately, and for what? for no real benefit whatsoever, it's just that they require JS for the sake of it instead of it providing a better user experience or anything like that (FWIW I have aggressive blocking settings for my uBlock Origin and the Internet Archive *does* work fine, provided that JS is allowed, that is; many "conventional" websites and their cookie banners are more | 17:33 |
| ashley | problematic and those darn things usually have at least some sorta overlay or somesuch that doesn't get blocked by uBlock Origin etc. :-/) | 17:33 |
| KotCzarny | i may have said it wrong, sometimes it goes hairy for me when some js dont load, then start looping aggresively trying to get some resource, which results in a temporary ban | 17:35 |
| Wizzup | KotCzarny: this sounds like the played back websites used js in some poor way, no? | 17:51 |
| KotCzarny | no, it's even before viewing site, on their 'date selector' subpage | 17:52 |
