[02:31] that took it's sweet time, FDM took two hours to prepare a 30GB file for download [06:40] What is my obsession with building up giant collections of retro games and throwing them all on a small portable PC to play them on [09:21] so I'm looking around the Asimov FTP with the Apple II software in it and I find these huge files under /pub/apple_II/emulators/mess [09:21] "Software_Collection_for_MESS_Emulator-Apple II Series Included.zip" [09:21] one's 4GB, one's 6GB, one's 14GB and one's 18GB [09:22] What the bloody hell is in them to make them so big [09:32] also the newest TOSEC sets went up on Pleasuredome as well, which is interesting [10:28] so i coded away for me to start dump cnet buzzoutloud alot faster [10:28] i'm seding the raw html of the wiki i found that has all the info [14:49] is there a single tumblr mirror tool? [17:31] hrrrrrrr. [18:04] well [18:04] I think I've just ran across the nastiest and most low anonnews submission ever [18:04] http://owely.com/81huoBn [18:07] what a url [18:07] http://undeadatrocity.no-ip.org:8080/social/index/ [18:07] that really is cherry [18:09] http://paritynews.com/web-news/item/1061-has-google-shut-down-sms-search [18:10] fuck I hate the EU congress [18:10] they mandated cookie warnings across the web [18:10] fuck guys it's JUST COOKIES [18:10] this isn't 1998 when everyone was afraid of cookies and javascript [18:11] we've had over a decade of large-scale experience with them [18:11] errrr [18:11] catch up [18:11] lol [18:11] it's already law I believe? [18:11] I know that [18:12] doesn't mean I can't still moan about it [18:12] true [18:12] :D [18:12] but it also means I can point out you seem to be slow to the party. [18:12] for all the bad things that the US government does, most of them aren't as annoying as cookie warnings [18:12] :D [18:13] meh, the annoying bit is needing the javascript to get rid of teh cookie warnings. [18:13] D: [18:13] "I CLICKED ACCEPT YOU FUCKING MESSAGE GET OUTTA THE WAY!" [18:44] * joepie91 refuses to display cookie crap [18:44] sue me! [18:49] yeah I'm in a country not under the EU's thumb, they can suck it [18:51] So, I've been writing a script to convert our mobileme files to WARCs [18:51] It takes a while, what with insane amounts of items involved. [18:51] chronomex: I'm in the Netherlands, one of the first European countries to adopt 'cookie law' [18:51] they can still suck it [18:52] and if anyone actually bothers suing me over it, I'll drag the goddamn thing to court [18:52] just to show how fucking retarded this kind of fake legislation is [18:52] it really has no business existing.. [18:53] good [18:53] talk is cheap [18:54] https://twitter.com/historyweird [18:55] SmileyG: Not over the phone, it isnt' [18:55] ha [18:56] It's a bit more awesome that EU is drafting a law about not being allowed to plant non-authorized seeds in the whole EU [18:56] ie if a fucking plant spreads without you knowing, on your farmland, you could be in serious problems [18:56] lol [18:56] dam plants. [18:57] I like the idea of the European Union, I just don't like how it currently "works" [18:59] SketchCow: I have all of buzz out loud year 2007 uploaded now [19:00] i even fix a link in the buzz out loud wiki to get the 012808 episode [19:01] ahhh, the EU [19:01] best. [19:02] Excellent. [19:07] Excellent Union! [19:09] BY THE WARC OF GREYSKULL, I HAVE THE WARC! [19:10] so here is some coding for my upload script to get the title and desc for buzz out loud [19:10] using raw html [19:11] title=$(cat *.html | grep -B3 $filename | grep title | sed 's|.*">||g' | sed 's|||g') [19:11] title1=$(echo "CNet Buzz Out Loud ${m}${i}${y}: $title") [19:12] this is before the other to in script: filename="${m}${i}${y}" [19:20] that first use of cat is a waste. You can just do grep -B3 $filename *.html | grep title | sed 's|.*">||g' | sed 's|||g') [19:21] but cat. [19:21] also using | in sed s/// is visually confusing [19:21] I'm partial to s,,, [19:21] using sed to parse html is just straight up a waste [19:22] you misuse the word 'waste' [19:24] plus that is brittle what if one page has the title tag start on a line and then the title itself is on the next line and the closing tag on another [19:24] whine whine whien [19:27] * Aranje laughs [19:37] it gets the meta data [19:37] thats all i care about [19:38] i'm using cat cause i normally use zcat to grab urls in warc.gz [19:44] zgrep... [19:45] sometimes it's perfectly acceptable to have a brittle process. [19:50] All of my scripts insult me like iron man's computer [20:04] Thats what happens when you outsource to England, cheeky bastards [20:09] looks like i found clips of news when the hp founder died [20:10] William Hewlett [20:22] video games + pro wrestling = http://imgur.com/8WUph7L [20:29] SketchCow: did you ever get the mediawiki stuff working? [20:29] :P [20:31] No, haven't run it yet, that's this week. [20:31] Metadata is fun, but right now I have to make sure a third of a petabyte isn't a big tumor on the boss' system. :) [20:33] heh [20:34] fair enough :) [21:02] looks like i'm past 41k videos in g4video-web [21:02] this is just awesome [21:13] question: why is archivete.am not yet registered? [21:19] it's 73/year? [21:20] that's probably it [21:37] hm [21:37] urlte.am is, though [21:39] also, supposedly, amnic.net (the NIC for .am) charges $50/yr [21:39] to non-Armenians [21:39] that's better than 73 :D [21:41] indeed [21:41] also, just went off on a rant at someone that ran every single URL he posted on lowendtalk to his own (mediocre, Javascript-utilizing) URL shortener [21:41] through * [21:42] ewwww [21:42] bonus: it was written in such a way that when blocking Google Analytics with Ghostery [21:42] the redirect would fail [21:43] er [21:43] anonymous function in google analytics pageview event [21:43] that's pretty bad [21:43] yeah [21:43] it is [21:43] and why the ^&%$#% is he shortening URLs on a forum anyway [21:44] dunno, since you can bbcode the url into relevant linktext [21:44] it's Vanilla [21:44] so [21:44] Markdown [21:44] even easier [21:44] I don't know markdown [21:44] [text goes here](http://site.com/) [21:44] moodle is the only thing I've ever used that advertised it as a feature [21:44] and it... was very hard to use [21:45] not moodle, markdown [21:45] perhaps it didn't include a proper reference [21:45] because Markdown itself is quite awesome and simple [21:45] assuming standard markdown [21:45] nope, it told you to go look at other markdown references [21:45] not one of the ridiculous variants with table syntax so complicated it's impossible to learn [21:45] right [21:45] Markdown references are generally very very poor [21:45] which are comprehensive and thus not useful for "I just want to create footnotes and indent things" [21:45] no clue why [21:46] indentation is not a standard feature of markdown [21:46] "also, headings" [21:46] quoting is [21:46] # h1 [21:46] ## h2 [21:46] ### h3 [21:46] etc [21:46] huh [21:46] yeah if only it were laid out that simply [21:46] footnote, I'm not sure about, I never use footnotes and I'm not sure it's a standard part of markdown [21:46] I gave up and manually formatted the text [21:46] sec [21:46] I have a decent cheatsheet somewhere [21:46] footnotes is something I use [21:47] I hate MLA citations, so I tell my teachers to go fuck themselves and use APA footnote citations [21:47] inside of an MLA formatted document [21:47] lol [21:47] http://support.mashery.com/docs/customizing_your_portal/Markdown_Cheat_Sheet [21:47] this is an okay one [21:48] k fuck it [21:48] browser froze again [21:48] guess work's over for tonight [21:48] haha [21:48] thanks :) [21:48] yeah moodle does... everything [21:48] they can even take text "word formatted" [21:49] because msword fucks up your text really badly [21:50] the one thing that annoys me about the IT at my school is that they do things the correct way, but only sometimes [21:50] there is no redirect from http to https on our school's moodle install [21:51] it just tells you to fuck off and use https [21:51] which is the correct way, but not the best way for idiot college kids [21:52] and they don't send hsts on the https connections, which is both dumb and smart [21:56] it seems like technology wants me to play games today [21:56] all my work-related software and platforms are either crashing or freezing [21:56] neverwinter nights runs fine [21:56] so, eh [21:56] perhaps I should give in to technology [21:58] :3 [21:59] it's a conspiracy to make you less productive! skynet has gone rogue! [22:00] so it seems... [22:01] :| [23:26] this is pretty awesome: http://divshot.github.io/geo-bootstrap/ A Geocities-style theme you can use for your website [23:32] so there maybe some napster dialup videos i can find [23:35] i found one of them [23:35] its 55 mins long [23:35] What exactly is a napster dialup video? [23:36] its the hears on napster from techtv [23:36] website [23:36] but is only in dialup [23:37] also i think is came before techtv existed and it was zdtv [23:37] there are lot of full epiisodes from the year 2000 [23:37] you mean dialup resolution and size. Got it [23:38] it was converted to flash [23:38] this one clip is 136mb [23:38] should be around 14-15mb if it was the orginal asf [23:48] http://theweek.com/article/index/243809/why-babies-in-every-country-on-earth-say-mama [23:48] tl;dr boobs [23:59] weird
