06:02 🔗 ivan` omf_: np
07:52 🔗 SketchCow Dropping this here because I've been indoctrinating you with my crazy for 3 years
07:52 🔗 SketchCow Guy digitized some magazines. I put them up. I go "You know, a lot of these are clipped/cropped"
07:52 🔗 SketchCow Okay. I'll have a friend compile me a list of things that I need to fix.
07:52 🔗 SketchCow I'll admit, I didn't spend a lot of time on it. The problem is if you
07:53 🔗 SketchCow do it real good, some jag-bag puts on on CD and tries to sell it. So I
07:53 🔗 SketchCow did a mediocre job in the interest of that, time and sanity.
07:53 🔗 SketchCow http://weknowmemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/the-fuck-is-this-the-fuck-is-that.jpg
08:06 🔗 godane SketchCow: i'm finding tons of episodes of zdnet news; internet tonight; call for help; and screen savers episodes

08:21 🔗 godane even with a good chuck of it xml data its not all there
08:24 🔗 godane SketchCow: i'm up to episode 73 of tekzilla now
08:26 🔗 SketchCow Excellent.
08:33 🔗 SketchCow http://www.quickmeme.com/meme/3tktsa/
08:34 🔗 chronomex hahah
09:31 🔗 omf_ Are there any collections of screen shots of the most visited websites
09:32 🔗 omf_ The wayback machine does handle web applications that well so it is hard to do research on previous iterations of technology.
10:23 🔗 Schbirid anyone else having weird things happening to their OVH servers?
10:35 🔗 godane so some of the full episodes are crap
10:35 🔗 godane i mean like black or gray screen for about the full hour
10:49 🔗 godane also know some of these are repeats
10:50 🔗 godane cause there is one of with a bit of internet tonight at the begining
10:51 🔗 godane then there is one where there is black replacing it
10:51 🔗 godane this is video25571 and video25567
11:02 🔗 dashcloud omf_: this is probably the site you want: http://www.screenshots.com/
11:07 🔗 godane so just found another episode of zdnet news
11:08 🔗 godane i think i'm "#winning"
19:08 🔗 omf_ dashcloud, I tried that site. It gives me the same thing that wayback does
20:14 🔗 omf_ I did a little outside the box thinking and was able to find screenshots using someone's tutorial video on youtube
20:24 🔗 omf_ Since so much stuff just stays alive on youtube if it does not belong to hollywoord.
20:36 🔗 SketchCow omf_: Archive.org now takes a snapshot of the full front page of any domain it visits.
20:36 🔗 SketchCow Using contemporary rendering technology, to ensure there's a record/"photograph" of the current situation.
20:53 🔗 omf_ Yeah the front page, not using the application which shows how the interface works. I needed shots of the application in action so I could show how the UX has evolved. I should have been more clear up front that I need action shots just just homepage views
20:54 🔗 omf_ The more I look into this the more I find there really is no tracking of these kinds of changes out in the world
20:54 🔗 omf_ The key distinction here is web application versus web site.
21:08 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, no, there's no tracking of that.
21:24 🔗 godane SketchCow: i have uploaded over 21k video to g4video-web
21:32 🔗 SketchCow Excellent.
21:38 🔗 godane just found another daily nut episode
21:38 🔗 omf_ godane, How many gigabytes are all those videos?
21:39 🔗 godane over 1TB
21:40 🔗 godane you guys are luckly to get this stuff
21:40 🔗 godane cause alot of it is hard to find
21:48 🔗 godane so we may get luckly with getting all the daily nut podcast episodes
22:36 🔗 omf_ I hate being broke. I was going to submit a cfp to defcon but cannot afford to get out there.
22:38 🔗 omf_ Actually I had to skip 6 cfps so far this year because I could not afford the travel. It kinda pisses me off that this is the price of business to get information out there
22:38 🔗 omf_ I can understand why some of the best talks and speakers never bother to put things out there
23:04 🔗 SketchCow Where do you live?
23:05 🔗 omf_ No where crazy, just plain old ohio
23:05 🔗 SketchCow So do you not apply to speak at Notacon?
23:05 🔗 omf_ I never thought notacon was an audience that would get the things I work on
23:06 🔗 omf_ Like I gave a freebase talk at a big linux event and it sailed over most of the audience anyway
23:06 🔗 SketchCow Huh.
23:06 🔗 SketchCow Wow, your talks are so amazing, so inherently complicated and fantastic that the human race is just not ready for them.
23:06 🔗 omf_ no
23:06 🔗 SketchCow Maybe publish online, then? Blog entries, one after another?
23:06 🔗 omf_ I just think they are too niche
23:07 🔗 SketchCow I mean, talks are among the most inefficent ways to publish ideas anyway.
23:07 🔗 omf_ Yeah but it feels like you are paying out by going to these events
23:08 🔗 omf_ I didn't bother for years and it didn't get me anywhere, now it helps find jobs
23:09 🔗 SketchCow You're a very cranky person.
23:09 🔗 SketchCow I mean, I like cranky people, obviously, since I am one and I encourage cranky behavior.
23:09 🔗 omf_ I have been in college debt too long
23:09 🔗 SketchCow But the point of speaking at, say, Notacon, or anywhere else, is not for the 30-180 meat bags in the room.
23:10 🔗 SketchCow It's to get a recording of your presentation out there, it's to get comfortable with your ideas (speaking them out loud gets them out of your head, realizing what works and what doesn't as you say it)
23:10 🔗 SketchCow There's a whole range of benefits. And so Notacon is right nearby, has been around for 10 years, is run efficiently, and I bet you could get a room with someone as cot on a floor, or a sleeping bag.
23:11 🔗 SketchCow And since you're a speaker, the fee is free.
23:11 🔗 SketchCow Anyway, enough free life advice, that's all.
23:11 🔗 omf_ I agrere. Most of the events I have done so far never have done video recordings and most of the audio is spotty at best. It really pisses me off since other events do way better and provide longer term value
23:11 🔗 SketchCow You are just so cranky.
23:12 🔗 omf_ Most people just say I am too outspoken. I enjoy the bluntness, thank you.
23:14 🔗 SketchCow Oh, sure.
23:14 🔗 SketchCow But I get to bluntly say you are a cranky old man, too.
23:15 🔗 omf_ Yeah, I'll own that.
23:16 🔗 chronomex though that doesn't give you a monopoly on wearing suspenders in irc
23:18 🔗 omf_ I thought everyone on irc was always pants free
23:18 🔗 omf_ someone lied to me!
23:18 🔗 SketchCow http://imgur.com/gallery/ykxK5Bi brilliant marketing
23:23 🔗 chronomex who says you need pants to wear grumpy old man suspenders?
23:24 🔗 chronomex damn kids these days, making the government force me to wear pants
