[00:00] http://www.coverbrowser.com/image/dos-games/1820-1.jpg I'm getting a Jason vibe off this kinda [00:02] Hahaha [00:02] That's a GREAT one [00:20] 21G N-Z [00:20] 50G a-c [00:20] 51G A-M [00:20] 53G d-i [00:20] root@teamarchive-1:/1/GITHUB/github.com# du -sh * [00:20] 57G j-m [00:20] 50G n-r [00:20] 48G s-z [00:20] root@teamarchive-1:/1/GITHUB/github.com# du -sh . [00:20] 327G . [00:21] Dangely, though, that's pretty small. [00:24] Well, nobody was using this thing. [00:34] Well, a lot of it is text - which has been compressed :) [00:36] 15318 [00:36] root@teamarchive-1:/1/GITHUB/github.com# find . -name index.txt | wc -l [00:36] so now you know, 15,318 individual sets [00:42] Neat. Also, "small". [00:43] SketchCow: Did you see BlueMax's image above? If not, you certainly should. [00:46] Makes me want to lose weight [00:46] * SketchCow starts dancing to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcLNteez3c4 [00:48] You don't need to lose weight [00:48] You need to be able to belly flop on Yahoo executives [00:49] Oppa jason style [00:49] Mmmmh, hyuna <3 [00:50] The difficult, immediately. The impossible will take a few moments longer. [00:50] (Slogan of the Waldorf Astoria) [01:35] fixed: http://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video14500 [01:42] uploaded: https://archive.org/details/www.g4tv.com-thefeed-20130110 [01:46] heh. I'm surprised nobody in the HN thread at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5364641 has accused AT of being a DDoS [01:47] maybe everyone is past that point [01:47] someone joked on twitter that we created the CDos [01:48] cdos? [01:48] my bad [01:48] DCos - Distributed Continuation of Service [01:48] I thought that was a SketchCow thing [01:49] I hadn't heard it before [01:49] distributed preservation of service attack [01:49] ah [01:49] dpos, yes [01:50] Someone is accusing AT of being necromancers tho :P [01:50] yeah [01:50] I'm like "that's totally awesome" [01:51] Necromancer is one of my favorites while playing D&D so. :) [02:09] ugh some of the idiocy in the HN comments [02:10] omf_: it's HN, it will always be idiocy [02:10] :P [02:12] http://archive.is/WvS3Y [02:12] Was HN ever really that good [02:12] I think so, and in many ways it still is quite good [02:13] it's got its quirks, memes, and silly crap, but so does any site big enough to care about [02:13] that is the problem [02:13] there used to be great sites that were small [02:13] now it is all big shit [02:14] Eternal September [02:14] I'm not really sure you can avoid that- people form groups, and unless your site is singularly focused, it will go off-topic [02:14] I am not talking about offtopic [02:15] Lets use stack overflow as an example [02:15] That series of sites is moderated usenet [02:15] eh? HN is a lisp repl developed on the deployment box and doesn't even have its own TLD. Not big. [02:15] with badges and points [02:15] (should be archive tho..) [02:15] closure, already done [02:15] all of it? [02:16] oh yeah there are a few people doing it [02:16] hnsearch does it [02:16] The stack sites are successful because the moderation reduces noise [02:17] HN, slashdot and the like once getting beyond a certain size have no real moderation [02:17] slashdot has a funny category which destroys intelligent conversation [02:18] if you're right, that would seem to suggest unstructured sites will eventually destroy themselves from the inside out [02:19] we have seen it happen before [02:19] what sites around now were around 15 years ago [02:20] but it's not truly fair to compare HN and stackoverflow sites, unless there's a stackoverflow for news that allows comments [02:21] HN being news has nothing to do with it. HN, slashdot, reddit, the stacks are all driven by the community submitting content and then commenting on it [02:21] facebook [02:21] twitter [02:22] There are always people looking for the next big thing and thats great [02:23] but it seems that is the only focus in the tech sector, the next thing. What about providing something that is just reliable [02:23] omf_: but the cloud will fix everything! :P *ducks* [02:23] to use a cliche, too many cooks in the kitchen [02:26] if you want just reliable, you should be using Pinboard for bookmarks- it doesn't try to do other things, it's responsive, and the owner is hilarious [02:32] If you are logged in does pinboard have comments? [02:36] no [02:36] logged in and logged out look exactly the same, but logged in you can see your private bookmarks as well (with a grey background) [02:37] hmm I like that approach. Essentially fuck comments because they provide nothing [02:38] correct [02:39] ;) [02:39] There are very few blogs I actually read the comments to [03:00] I rather appreciate comments on extremely technical typographic posts [03:01] very good questions with very good answers, often [03:01] Aranje, I assume you mean 'I appreciate on point, well thought out comments that lend value' [03:02] speaking of typography did you read the symbol font article in the new alistapart [03:03] not just yet [03:03] omf_:) that's the general point, yes. I've just found a much higher rate of those in typography specific posts [03:05] another good one is http://viljamis.com/blog/2013/prototyping-responsive-typography/ [03:05] oooh [03:05] I dunno what it is, but I just get infatuated with readability these days [03:05] Here is a cool little easter egg [03:05] I've put SO much time into it [03:06] look at the site with and without javascript on [03:06] 2 different type styles based on availability [03:06] mmm, dat graceful degredation [03:08] I've never been compelled much by the loadable fonts... except for headers [03:12] ahh! those alistapart posts were just posted today [03:12] haha [04:30] my 18 day web crawl has just finished. 7.8 million pages + assets downloaded. I almost ran out of space for it [04:31] pfft. ran out of space. [04:33] I added 6tb last month and that is all full too [04:33] I'll probably add 6tb more tomorrow [04:33] well after the break in tests finish [07:06] omf_: Hah, woah [07:08] I am going all 3tb drives now [07:12] I just bought 2 2tb drives. [07:12] Starting to upgrade the ol' media. [07:12] I'm gonna buy me some 4TB drives when my card arrives [07:13] Keep an eye out: [07:13] http://www.edwardbetts.com/price_per_tb/ [07:15] ersi, which brand drives are you looking into? [07:16] Now all I need is some Australian suppliers that inflate the price by about 200% and I'll be off! [07:16] \(._.)/ [07:16] GLaDOS, you don't use PC Case Gear? [07:17] I bought a 4 port 2.5' drive bay from them I think [07:17] Yeah, I did [08:03] http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=22818 A man can dream.. [08:09] A man can dream indeed. [08:10] That thing would be awesome for mining Bitcoins. [08:12] It would. [08:18] bitcoins are for chumps [08:33] nvidia sucks for bitcoins [08:36] While doing some tasks, I have the Despecialized edition of Star Wars, first movie [08:36] Boy, does this thing remind you how sucky the new movie is [08:36] uh, do you mean Episode IV? [08:37] This is from before it was called that. [08:37] sorry I grew up with the prequel trilogy [08:37] I know, you're nine. [08:38] teen. [08:38] I have a dozen shirt sin this room older than you [08:38] Regardless. Star Wars, first movie. 1977. [08:38] Before it was rebranded as Episode IV the next year [08:38] I'd like to see a copy of that to be honest [08:38] Pretty sure I've only seen Special Editions [08:39] I am positive you have. [08:40] I mean I have an old copy of it in my loungeroom but it's the VHS trilogy rerelease [08:40] Look for "Despecialized edition" [08:42] I have the laser disk versions of star wars [08:42] good video quality, no cgi addins [08:43] Thanks SketchCow, will definitely grab these and watch them soon [08:43] Also I really need to buy your BBS documentary, I just watched it for the fourth time tonight [08:44] omf_: Cheapest. [08:45] although I will admit there's one change in the special edition I really like, and that's the reference to the Outrider from Shadows of the Empire. I loved that series. I'll shut up now. [08:45] omf_: Seagate seems to be the cheapest here in Sweden at the moment [08:46] Is there a higher markup for hardware in Europe? [08:52] SketchCow: I wasn't able to get my bittorrent thing to work with magnets, is there a tracker that has it available? [08:53] omf_: feels like it, at least in Sweden. [08:54] omf_: We got this stupid multimedia tax as well, on all storage devices (Fucking moronic) [08:54] We pay a percentage of each storage device, to the Swedish/European "RIAA"/IFPI etc [08:54] Yes.. regardless of use.. and of course, businesses are exempt.. but only if they ask for it [08:55] seems reasonable [08:56] Well, if there'd be an exception of copying your private copy of licensed works.. Yeah, kinda [08:56] Yeah friend in Canada complain about their media tax too [08:56] its fucking clown shoes [08:57] it sure is [09:11] http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2013/03/whats-better-than-a-great-app-dozens-of-great-apps/ [09:11] lol'd [09:11] answer is "Until Yahoo! axes the shit out of all of thme" [09:13] Yahoo is like a small child. [09:13] It has a short attention span, and doesn't like sharing. [09:13] ..or was that just me? [09:16] GLaDOS, you sure you don't mean google? They tend to ax shit faster [09:16] someone wrote an article a while back on google's failed products. They axe over 10 products a year [09:16] I usually see all kids as one big blob. [09:17] yeah I can understand that [09:17] I think facebook might be the worst [09:17] they buy shit to kill it [09:17] They just get the team. [09:18] They all suck [09:18] I'm surprised Instagram is still alive, and hasn't merged into Facebook. [09:18] I like amazon still. AWS and EC2 are pretty niffty [09:39] they are working on it XD [09:39] omf_: yeah but google starts these projects with the obviousness that they might disappear again [09:40] Any online service can disappear at any time. That is just a fact [09:41] Any product made by any company can be discontinued that is the nature of companies and products [09:41] when did people start thinking this didn't apply online? [09:42] Since the commoners flocked to the 'netz [09:42] good point [09:45] cloud! [09:45] it's there forever [09:48] I am sweating like a whore in church. I am going to go roll around in the snow outside [09:48] At least you have snow. [09:50] I love snow [09:50] It is my favorite part of nature [09:56] omf_: I'm sweating too :< we are re-arranging the office ready for refurb, and some how "IT" translates as "Removal man". [09:56] http://metro.co.uk/2013/03/12/papal-conclave-live-blog-will-it-be-white-smoke-or-not-3537372/ - actually quite amusing [09:58] lol [09:58] liveblogging a chimney is about the weirdest thing ever [10:08] joyent just emailed me asking what problems I have with joyent [10:09] I asked how a cloud company does not have instance saving, backing up, restoring or even load a custom OS option [10:09] I await the marketing speak (aka lies) they are going to tell me [10:10] cool [10:11] I am surprised they even read my initial feedback [10:32] It's "Coming!" [10:38] While combining this data into the drives I bought, I'm playing a japanese anime. [10:38] And what's great is it has an english soundtrack AND an english caption set [10:39] And they're NOT THE SAME [10:39] They're describing the same thing TWO DIFFERENT WAYS [10:40] Kind of like a Choose Your Own Adventure story? [10:40] SketchCow: when will i have direct access to my collections? [10:40] When I find the instructions I misplaced [10:41] ok [10:41] ^_^ [10:41] i just want it so i can start giving you more stuff [10:44] should rename Internet Archive to the Godane Archive :) [10:44] You're doing a lot! (It's appreciated) [10:44] i know [10:44] g4tv.com should have been a Jason Scott project to me [10:45] i was trying to just get the episode rips cause it would be easier for me [10:45] but alot of the older ones are gone [10:46] also some other good news is i got some 2005 episodes of the screen savers [10:47] GLaDOS: why you invite me to empty channel? [10:48] k [10:48] * Smiley continues to idle, and /notice is evil. [10:48] it bypasses my highlight :P [10:49] I have much higher priorities than g4tv. [10:49] So it's much better you took it on. [10:49] It's just your autism is making you expand the project to crazy levels. [10:49] Benefit: The world [10:50] it was more about the level of data [10:51] godane, how many gigabytes has the whole thing turned out to be so far? [10:51] dl.tv and crankygeeks was at most ~80gb [10:51] i still don't know [10:51] but is more then 1tb [10:53] i know the images are around 72gb [10:56] the sd videos are around ~750gb [10:56] more closer to 800gb once you get the missing videos that i can find [10:58] g4 forums dumps: https://archive.org/search.php?query=forums.g4tv%20AND%20collection%3Aopensource [10:58] thats the public forums without a user account [11:02] You will all be shocked to know this episode of Lupin III NOT directed by Miyazaki is not as good as one [11:23] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigon_Studios [11:24] Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena Walkthrough: http://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video36254 [11:41] uploaded: http://archive.org/details/images.g4tv.com-100001-to-110000_l-images [12:13] godane: you managed to uplaod so much stuff yet the derivers can't keep up? [12:41] i'm like uploading 2 things at once [12:41] once terminal is uploading videos [12:42] where gftp is uploading my image dumps [13:01] i get to have the fun of trying to load a 2.4gb warc into warc-proxy [13:03] trying to check my g4 forums dumps to make sure it works [13:03] also i want see if i just need a index the first page in index to fix the s= urls [13:31] Welcome to russia: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6OqP9umPgU [13:33] I like how everyone in russia has a dashcam [13:34] I like how everyone seems to be poor drivers [13:34] I understand why they have dashcams now. [13:35] alot of people get scamed there [13:35] ^ it is to do with proving insuranece claims [13:36] Well, they sure suck at driving - so yeah. [13:36] Seems necessary for teh claims [13:36] yeah, and a lot of people would also intentionally cause accidents to get the insurance claim [13:37] Like that one at 03:59 where someone reverses into them [13:38] haha, yeah [14:10] omf_: Read this: http://slashdot.org/topic/cloud/sxsw-stephen-wolfram-talks-mathematica-wolfram-alpha-growth/ with the In the Butt extention [14:39] anyone concidered archiving skype.com ? [14:40] Actually now I think about it, it appears that's unlikely to go [14:40] Metal Gear Solid Touch Gameplay: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video37299 [14:44] Free Realms Direct-Feed Walkthrough: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video37271 [14:48] Smiley: Is there any non-corporate content there? [14:52] Not sure. [15:37] fixed: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video18045 [15:37] fixed: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video18047 [15:38] They're describing the same thing TWO DIFFERENT WAYS <-- late but this is actually pretty common, the dub script has constraints in terms of lip-moving time, but the subs can be more literal and/or weeaboo-compliant [15:39] is there any way to run a script to find bad videos? [15:40] like videos that don't play all the way thur [15:41] after finding broking videos in the 18000 ids i need a script to find the broken so i could maybe replace them with working flv7 video [15:41] or even pod.mp4 format [15:41] this will show your tasks where the derive process has frozen up: https://archive.org/catalog.php?justme=1 [15:42] thats not going to help [15:42] I think there are a lot of errors where it will go ahead and finish but make broken output though [15:42] yeah [15:43] the borken videos will derive but only put out the working parts [15:43] you'd probably need something custom from the likes of underscor [15:43] underscor: i need your help [15:43] do you still have all the video files on your hard drive [15:44] yes [15:44] what do you need [15:44] then you can probably do something without his help [15:44] a script to check if videos are incomplete or not play thur [15:45] this looks like it would work http://606u.dir.bg/avicheck/#automation [15:45] if you change .avi to .flv or whatever [15:46] i think i tryed that [15:46] it didn't work on my system [15:47] underscor: I was wondering if there was an easy way to grep all the derive logs for one user for ffmpeg errors [15:47] Not.... easy [15:47] At least, not within my purview [16:05] Stalin vs. Martians Debut Trailer: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video37376 [16:06] now thats just weird [16:08] The Street Fighter Years Mini Doc: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video37374 [16:47] so i may have all forums.g4tv.com images [16:47] not exterinal ones [16:48] looks like my main problem will be cause alot of the image.php images use a dateline= variable [16:48] so the images are backed up but will not work with wayback machine [16:48] since the urls are different [17:04] this is one fire: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/559914737/the-veronica-mars-movie-project [17:04] *on fire [17:24] holy shit im backing [17:37] an xkcd that actually made me laugh? that hasn't happened in a while https://xkcd.com/1185/ [17:56] godane: Thanks for the link. I think I have to call my bank and ask for a 1,250,000 USD loan [17:59] its growing very fast [17:59] so it should be at goal in 2 days at least [18:00] https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/559914737/the-veronica-mars-movie-project/ [18:14] i doing regrabs of indexs [18:15] since it looks like only the the first page has the s= links its not going to cause too much of a problem [18:22] holy shit I just reloaded the kickstarter and it jumped up by 100,000 [18:23] Talking about kickstarters @SketchCow, is the ArchiveTeam/money for archive.org HDDs thing still planned? [18:31] I'm trying to get money in another way before going kickstarter [18:31] Unless we have a drive [18:32] But kickstarters add a hell of a burden [19:56] https://twitter.com/PopeFrancisOne [20:02] DFJustin: that's awesome [20:04] hail [20:04] spics [20:04] takin' the world [21:46] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fPgIIB67bw [21:47] Game of Thrones - 1995 Style [21:48] Tim O'reilly responded on HN... wtf has the world come to [21:49] That people take the asshat comments on there seriously [22:09] Tim_OReilly 4 hours ago | Thanks for the sobering feedback. I'll take your advice,starting with the books you mention. [22:09] dang [22:19] lol [22:20] HN confirmed for society-changing outlet [22:35] so which story did Tim O'Reilly reply to? [22:41] The one about O'reilly media having lost its soul. It is a story about a massive fuck up on their end publishing a book [22:41] Here is the original article http://www.perceptualedge.com/blog/?p=1521 [22:45] HN is just about which asshole yells the loudest. There is not quality level to any of the article selection other than which story has the most link bait title [22:46] HN is slashdot for hipsters [22:46] There I said it. I feel better already. [22:48] so what's the best news site with comments then? [22:49] There is no best. It is which pile of shit you are willing to tolerate. [22:51] As long as there are trolls and woefully ignorant people we cannot have nice things. [23:37] well Fuck Google. [23:39] link? I just joined. [23:43] arkhive: Google Reader is going away. [23:43] I switched to it a few months ago. It's simple but good. It works. That it goes away is basically crappy, especially since maintenance for it has got to be nil at this point. [23:53] holy kike [23:53] google reader [23:54] i fucking hate these spring cleanings [23:54] i really miss the youtube "search stories" app [23:54] oh and the fucking blackberry client [23:54] *gmail [23:54] and however, it's not google's [23:54] SnaptÑu [23:54] *ü [23:55] it was a great goddamn product [23:55] but facebook bought it [23:55] and deleted all the services but their facebook for everyone phone shit [23:55] The internet has that problem [23:55] create. destroy [23:56] That is the same product cycle any company goes through. Notice Oreos are gone now [23:56] that's why we are here. [23:56] really? didn't know that. [23:56] I was shocked as well [23:56] i hate [23:56] oreos [23:56] with all my fucking heart [23:56] and them mixed with milk [23:56] what's this about oreos? [23:56] it's disgusting [23:57] I'm pretty sure they're still around [23:57] ya [23:57] lol [23:57] "Thank you again for using Reader as your RSS platform."
