21:29 <kiedtl> I made something silly

21:29 <kiedtl> https://loap.k1sslinux.org/

21:29 <kiedtl> as an excuse to learn sql and webshit

21:32 <kiedtl> I am open to taking this farther though if there's any interest

21:32 <kiedtl> Guess it might be helpful, if only for folks who don't want to rebuild firefox all the time

21:35 <midfavila> oh that's cool actually

21:35 <midfavila> gj kiedtl

21:35 <midfavila> :3

21:35 <kiedtl> ty ty

21:36 <midfavila> bigged brained

21:37 <midfavila> and it works in links because sans JS

21:37 <midfavila> very nice indeed

21:38 <midfavila> hey phoebos look at kiedtl doin' a thing >:O

21:38 <kiedtl> :>

21:40 <midfavila> i would be willing to set up something on my workstation when it gets here to build packages every time they're updated

21:40 <midfavila> then push them to a loap setup on bvnf

21:40 <midfavila> i'm out most of the day anyway so those 48t are just kicking it

21:43 <kiedtl> neat

21:43 <kiedtl> i have some hacked together scripts for uploading stuff

21:44 <kiedtl> let me know what packages you can push

21:44 <midfavila> have you uploaded loap anywhere?

21:44 <midfavila> and it'll unfortunately be a hot minute, my workstation hasn't shipped yet :

21:44 <midfavila> c

21:44 <midfavila> but after that i can probably just build all of them continuously

21:44 <midfavila> i don't pay for my electric anyway, so, meh

21:53 <kiedtl> oh yeah no problem

21:53 <kiedtl> I'm probably going to take a break from working on this anyway

21:53 <kiedtl> it's on github but the scripts aren't anywhere

21:54 <kiedtl> https://github.com/kiedtl/loap (tw: rust)

21:57 <midfavila> >RUST

21:57 <midfavila> rewrite in c *IMMEDIATELY*

21:57 <midfavila> >:CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

21:58 <kiedtl> I don't know how to do webshit in C though :(

21:58 <midfavila> can use cgi

21:58 <midfavila> let's see here...

21:58 <kiedtl> I knew leptos (rust web framework thing) from a previous project and just went with it

21:58 <kiedtl> not like people need to build the loap server anyway :p

21:59 <midfavila> oh this isn't bad

21:59 <kiedtl> which part?

21:59 <midfavila> the whole thing

21:59 <midfavila> less than 1k lines

21:59 <kiedtl> huh

21:59 <kiedtl> oh

21:59 <kiedtl> it's a simple CRUD thing

21:59 <midfavila> i bet i could hack something together that uses roff to format stuff

21:59 <kiedtl> probably

22:00 <kiedtl> roff is atrocious though

22:00 <midfavila> you take that BACK

22:00 <kiedtl> no

22:00 <midfavila> :gun:

22:00 <kiedtl> even gemtext is better

22:00 <midfavila> you can output html

22:00 <midfavila> then again i guess there's probably not a huge reason to involve roff...

22:00 <midfavila> i'll have to poke at this

22:00 <kiedtl> cheers

22:01 <midfavila> going to have to fucking decipher rust

22:01 <midfavila> uggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

22:01 <midfavila> >:c

22:01 <kiedtl> leptos has a huge learning curve unfortunately

22:01 <kiedtl> resources, signals, suspenses, etc

22:01 <midfavila> oh i don't need to learn anything about that

22:01 <kiedtl> lol

22:01 <midfavila> i'm just going to see if i can kludge something together to get a similar output from a similar input

22:01 <kiedtl> I can send you the db, you can look at the sql schema

22:01 <kiedtl> could probably re create the whole thing from just that

22:01 <midfavila> might not even need a framework per se

22:02 <kiedtl> true

22:02 <midfavila> like

22:02 <kiedtl> I just reached for whatever was convenient

22:02 <kiedtl> i kinda wanted to learn erlang and phoenix

22:02 <midfavila> it's just a list of lists on top of a sql database, in the abstract

22:02 <kiedtl> yeah

22:02 <midfavila> that could be translated directly to html

22:02 <midfavila> and then you could interact with it through cgi

22:03 <kiedtl> http://0x0.st/8Y7s.sql

22:03 <midfavila> ty bby

22:03 <kiedtl> yeah it wouldn't be too hard

22:03 <kiedtl> hardest part for me was verifying the ssh signatures (since it uses ssh keys for auth)

22:04 <kiedtl> I hand-wrote a parser, checked everything, couldn't get it to work

22:04 <kiedtl> finally I used a library

22:04 <kiedtl> just one of those weird side-problems you encounter at 2 am

22:05 <midfavila> i've never done any server-side programming so i wouldn't know

22:05 <midfavila> i've barely touched the web at all

22:05 <midfavila> aside from my wget/curl replacement that i wrote to half-completion and then dumped because life

22:05 <midfavila> still need to get back on that

22:07 <midfavila> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i wish canada had four-day work weeks so i had time to DO stuff

22:11 <midfavila> but instead of investing in labour our new government is replacing the public service with fucking generative AI and somehow finding billions between the couch cushions to reinforce our border against literally nobody

22:11 <midfavila> >:|
