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.
