02:16 🔗 shaqfu If anyone's interested, I put together a script to recursively scan+crawl SWFs
02:16 🔗 shaqfu No WARC support, sadly, and the output kinda sucks atm
02:17 🔗 shaqfu But I'll toss it on Gist or w/e if anyone wants it
02:20 🔗 tef do it
02:21 🔗 tef ;
02:24 🔗 shaqfu https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5131513
02:24 🔗 shaqfu I'd like to somehow fork the output of wget and the script sanely
02:29 🔗 tef hrm
02:30 🔗 tef well really what you want to do is to take wget and add swfmill support :-)
02:30 🔗 shaqfu tef: What I'd love to do in the future is some sort of Python wrapper or w/e that would add support for SWF and basic JS
02:30 🔗 shaqfu Even if it's just pattern-matching openBrWindow, window.open, etc
02:31 🔗 shaqfu But even then, having an automated SWF crawler may be useful, even if you have to find . | xargs wget --warc later
02:36 🔗 tef heh
02:37 🔗 tef i do have a python crawler which should have feature parity in terms of url extraction from html kicking around in my github
02:37 🔗 tef but it weites ugly warcs because it uses an old version of requests
02:43 🔗 shaqfu Wonder if it's sane to write a wget wrapper to add functionality
02:43 🔗 shaqfu Might be better to use what works to start :)
03:00 🔗 gnathan_ hi, sorry for perhaps an odd request: trying to get my hands on some case law but it's turning out to be basically impossible without being on an academic network. Wondered if anybody could help me out? really grateful if you could PM me. thanks!
03:17 🔗 closure http://brianbailey.me/the-world-wide-web-is-moving-to-aol
03:26 🔗 dashcloud gnathan_: not sure if you've already checked the recap site? they have a large number of items from PACER
03:27 🔗 gnathan_ dashcloud: ah, I had not, but it looks like PACER is US. I'm looking for UK document
03:27 🔗 gnathan_ s
03:27 🔗 gnathan_ thanks, though :D
03:31 🔗 dashcloud welcome
03:32 🔗 dashcloud good night!
03:37 🔗 yipdw I wish git rm had a --fuckyou option
03:37 🔗 yipdw to be used when you see huge directories that have no references to the main application modules at all
04:19 🔗 omf_ A while back someone mentioned that the IA makes cdx files from warcs if they do not exist. If I upload the warc and cdx together will I get the same cdx file I uploaded back later or the IA generated one?
04:20 🔗 omf_ Should there be any differences between those two cdx files?
04:21 🔗 tef depends. if you use index-cdx, yes, but it might be doing some different url canonicalization
04:34 🔗 SketchCo1 You SHOULD get the generated CDX
04:34 🔗 SketchCo1 But why do thast
04:36 🔗 godane i always make cdx files with my warc.gz
05:03 🔗 SketchCow > x-archive-meta-language:eng

16:44 🔗 chronomex "pathname contains \0" implies it's on hfs+ or some similar fs
16:44 🔗 chronomex oh, um
