[00:04] <godane> i'm finally getting those missing videos that had the vc problem
[01:13] <omf_> After a timed test I can honestly saw DigitalOcean is faster than joyent for mirroring sites. I filled up a 20gb and 30gb instance much faster than joyent for the same exact sites
[01:13] <omf_> I keep under estimating how large some of these sites are so, go bigger!
[01:21] <godane> looks like my image mirror is almost done
[01:22] <godane> from g4
[01:55] <omf_> Stallman is speaking at a local university soon. I am thinking of going to see it but I am sure it is the same old same old song and dance
[01:56] <nooneyb> certainly
[01:57] <omf_> It would be one thing if I could get patches into the gnu controlled software
[01:58] <omf_> by going to this event
[01:58] <nooneyb> ask him, if he get sick and at the hospital they need to use a machine with a proprietary firmware to save his life, would he refuse it?
[01:58] <omf_> I think someone asked that before
[01:59] <nooneyb> yeah, probably
[01:59] <omf_> How do you fly on a plane with a closed OS? Doesn't seem like standing up for Free Software
[01:59] <omf_> ;)
[02:00] <nooneyb> I remember once when he start to charge to take a photo with him, because it took too much of his work time
[02:50] <dashcloud> omf_: you should go and ask him about GCC vs clang & the other LLVM compilers
[02:59] <omf_> oohh that would be good
[02:59] <omf_> Considering for the gcc engineering marvel no one ever thought the thing should be modular
[03:00] <omf_> I mean shit just that feature puts LLVM ahead
[03:01] <dashcloud> yeah, but if you understand the history of GCC, it's kinda obvious why it's not modular/as modular as LLVM
[03:03] <balrog> wasn't it in part because they didn't want proprietary modules?
[03:03] <dashcloud> it wasn't designed that way, and at least Stallman didn't want non-GPL programs hooking into GCC internals
[03:03] <balrog> in large part, I should say
[03:05] <dashcloud> so if you do ask, it should focus on how GCC will stay competitive with the current crop of LLVM-based compilers
[03:06] <dashcloud> good night!
[03:06] <balrog> I agree. night :)
[03:19] <omf_> I should just go for the throat, Why are programmers fleeing the gnu group citing management problems with software development?
[03:22] <chronomex> because they're wrong
[03:23] <omf_> of course
[03:23] <omf_> But none of the gnu die hards can even admit there is a problem.
[03:23] <omf_> Many open source projects run different now and I think better too. When I can drive by a patch and it is just accepted with no fucking around, I love it
[03:25] <omf_> No endless bike shedding
[03:25] <omf_> shit that was redundant
[10:28] <ersi> Smiley: I'd recommend not poking about in that slashdot thread
[10:28] <ersi> those comments doesn't really.. make things better
[10:28] <Smiley> yeah I'm not going to post anymore
[10:28] <ersi> also, you never bring up CP while discussing copyright. That's just inviting retardness galore
[10:29] <Smiley> hey it's slashdot.
[10:30] <Smiley> in other news.... apently they discussing thei nterviews tomorrow
[10:30] <Smiley> so i prob won't hear to wednesday at the earliest :(
[11:41] <SketchCow> Which slashdot thread?
[11:45] <ersi> SketchCow: http://tech.slashdot.org/story/13/04/15/0222245/the-internet-archive-is-now-the-largest-collection-of-historical-software-online
[11:46] <ersi> Someone just copy pasted your post on his personal blag and submitted it to jerkdot
[11:53] <SketchCow> Yeah, saw
[11:54] <SketchCow> Actually, he copy-pasted the Next Web post.
[11:54] <SketchCow> Anyway, I wouldn't go to crazy on it. I'll look at it, Brewster will look at it, but that's our JOB
[11:54] <SketchCow> P.s. I have an awesome job
[12:07] <Smiley> ersi: my post?
[12:07] <Smiley> zomgs copyright!
[12:09] <Smiley> Oh wait, now I get it after re-reading.
[12:34] <godane> https://images.4chan.org/s4s/src/1365994485401.gif
[12:35] <GLaDOS> I hate it when that happens..
[12:36] * ersi tumbles around
[12:36] <ersi> damn you noodles, stay still!
[12:38] <godane> anyways i'm close to having over 100 episode of tekzilla on archive.org
[12:39] <godane> if i keep up on this we may need a rev3 and twit collection
[12:39] <godane> :P
[14:00] <godane> some one is uploading Totally Fox Kids magazines: http://archive.org/details/TotallyFoxKids
[14:01] <godane> it doesn't look good for a collection but once uploaded i will help reupload them as one issue per a item
[14:22] <SketchCow> I'm already working with them
[14:23] <godane> ok
[14:30] <Smiley> https://www.kennethnorton.com/essays/how-to-work-with-software-engineers.html lol
[15:25] <DFJustin> get it while it's hot https://archive.org/details/the-elder-scrolls-online-leaked-gameplay-footage
[17:48] <joepie92> DFJustin: that looks kind of terrible tbh
[17:48] <joepie92> at least the first few seconds
[17:50] <DFJustin> yeah that's been the receiption online which is probably partly why they've been trigger-happy on having it taken down everywhere
[17:51] <joepie92> DFJustin: this looks like one of those budget bin games from a company using an old game engine with old models that just aren't quite detailed enough
[17:51] <joepie92> :/
[17:51] <joepie92> some parts are nicely done, other parts are terribly undetailed
[17:52] <joepie92> I hope this is the alpha version of low-quality setting or whatever
[17:52] <happy> wanna chat
[17:52] <DFJustin> well I'm willing to give them a pass on a lot of that stuff because it wasn't supposed to be public yet so obviously detailing etc. isn't done yet
[17:53] <happy> wamma chat
[17:54] <DFJustin> although wikipedia says it's been in dev for 6 years and this is the beta so maybe not lol
[18:47] <Smiley> DFJustin: is anything in the video dated?
[19:07] <DFJustin> not that I know of but I haven't watched it too closely
[19:46] <godane> so i got more issues of smart computing
[19:46] <godane> from 2003
[19:57] <godane> just noticed the boston explosions
[21:40] <dashcloud> so, what the hell is up with irc.prison.net as an EFNet server? It told me I was banned- do they often ban folks?
[21:42] <Mister_Ar> Hello!
[21:42] <MrArgent> Truncation, damnation!
[22:27] <ersi> http://blog.archive.org/2013/04/15/brace-yourselves-outages-are-coming/
[22:31] <MrArgent> Hmm, sounds nice.
[22:31] <DFJustin> power EXTREME
[22:31] <MrArgent> i'm rigging up a little mini-archive on a old 200gb drive
[22:33] <MrArgent> sadly even 700gb is a bit of a luxury for me
[23:09] <arkhive> National Eggs Benedict Day tomorrow and Free Comic Book day the 17th. Woot!
[23:09] <arkhive> Had to say that..
[23:22] <BlueMax> what's your favorite seedbox provider? now that I have some cash I might be able to get one
[23:28] <BlueMax> Bahahahaha
[23:29] <BlueMax> This No-Intro torrent has the MSX platform credited to Microsoft
[23:29] <DFJustin> they had some involvement with it iirc
[23:30] <BlueMax> wait they did?
[23:30] <DFJustin> MSX was the name of a standardized home computer architecture, first announced by Microsoft in June 16, 1983,[1] conceived by Kazuhiko Nishi, then Vice-president at Microsoft Japan and Director at ASCII Corporation. It is said that Microsoft led the project as an attempt to create unified standards among hardware makers.[2]
[23:31] <BlueMax> well, I'm a moron.
[23:32] <DFJustin> and of course MS wrote the BASIC for all those old comps
[23:33] <BlueMax> I really need to brush up on my computer history
[23:36] <chronomex> arkhive: may 17 is world telecommunications day
[23:37] <chronomex> http://www.itu.int/en/wtisd/Pages/default.aspx
[23:37] <chronomex> we should have an internet party or something
[23:38] <chronomex> I'll bring the cake
[23:40] <BlueMax> I'll bring the lame
[23:42] <omf_> I have the original legend of zelda games for MSX
[23:43] <omf_> talk about weird. A nintendo property on a MS console in that eta
[23:43] <omf_> They are fully animated and awful
[23:44] <BlueMax> omf_ what about the Super Mario Bros PC. Special on...the PC-8801, I think it was?
[23:44] <BlueMax> THAT was bad
[23:45] <omf_> The ninja gaiden port for dos had really bad controlls
