[01:02] i'm uploading tech history today series from twit [02:10] https://twitter.com/textfiles/status/371797137170124800 :( [02:11] And here I was about to start using Sourceforge to distribute large binaries. Mac CLI stuff so it wouldn't actually affect me, but trust broken. [02:11] Anyone have thoughts on where to distribute large binaries of stuff? I have modern software compiled for old Macs to distribute. [02:11] why not archive.org? [02:12] Oh yeah, I guess that could work! I feel like that might be kinda abusing its storage/bandwidth, but on the other hand maybe not [02:15] so tech history today is full uploaded [02:15] 3 twit video colections are sort of complete [02:55] http://youtu.be/7cWmhFFOAjE [03:09] mistym: from reading the article's comments, it looks like it's an ad program the developers can opt into. If you don't want to use sourceforge anyway, people are saying github offers a binary hosting portion again called "releases" [03:14] dashcloud: I think Github's size/possibly bandwidth is limited though. I'm packaging other software, so there'd be a lot of large packages [03:14] if you're not scared off by Google's crap yet, Google Code does do binary storage [03:14] you could try a free mega account as a mirror [03:15] Google Code introduced per-account size limits too though - projects are migrating away from them because of that [03:16] it would be really strange for a non-linux project, but could you use launchpad.net ? [03:51] dashcloud: Oh yeah, that's a thought. [03:59] dashcloud: "hey developer, do you want free monies for zero effort? here, just click the button, come on, come on, just click it..." "yeah well, they opted in to bundle stuff *themselves*!" [03:59] roughly summarizes my thougts on opt-in crapware bundling [03:59] "opt-in" [04:05] so 2001 world articles of theguardian.com is uploaded [04:10] SketchCow, this thread may be interesting: http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/blackhat-lounge/599767-end-google-finally.html [04:10] gives an interesting... insight into the whole marketing industry and the attitude of the people that work in it [04:11] also http://www.salon.com/2013/07/05/adblock_plus_lets_some_advertisers_pay_to_play/singleton/ [04:18] yes [04:18] :) [04:18] that's why there is adblock edge [04:19] I use more than one blocking program [04:20] I use none! [04:20] Living dangerously ;) [04:20] I just refuse to use websites slathered in obnoxious ads :D [04:20] salon.com recently got booted because of their popovers [04:21] For me it is about going to sites I find through search on different subjects [04:22] mostly ads (on other people's shit) are annoying to me, not because they're necessarily user-abrasive (though they often are) but because for eg I look at newrelic's website and bam every ad I view for weeks is a newrelic ad [04:22] that's just dumb :D [04:33] I also find pages load faster when all that shit is blocked. Some news sites have like 17 ad trackers on them [04:33] gawker has 11 for example [04:37] oh god yeah [04:37] I hate that shit [04:37] and they're all asynchronous, so it takes for fucking ever for everybody to get done lazyloading shit into the page [04:38] yes it is shit [04:38] piles of it [04:38] yap [04:38] what never made sense to me is "why 10 trackers? is GA or insert-decent-one-here not sufficient?" [04:38] Ad companies are douchebags, they want to do their own tracking [04:39] Ad publishers have no fucking clue what they are doing [04:39] their infrastructure is so slow too e.e [04:39] high latency low throughput e.e [04:40] ＼(-___________-;)／ [04:40] I think it's funny because the boutique ad places (carbon, for example) do it really well [04:42] but I guess the reason I like carbon is because their contract states they have to be the only ad on the page [04:42] and you can only put a single carbon ad on a page [04:42] sooooooo [04:51] holy shit, this is why being a public company is bullshit [04:52] When Mayer took the helm a year ago, Loeb’s plan was to fire between 20 percent and 30 percent of Yahoo!’s roughly 12,000 workers [04:52] I like how to the common solution is to fire people [04:53] it never seems to take into account the sunk cost of finding those people who filled the jobs [04:54] he owned a billion dollars of stock in Yahoo [05:04] so i found a place that has all the links to odtv [05:05] or ondemand twit tv it was called [05:24] youtube has to be the best music piracy platform ever [05:24] way more stuff on here than napster ever had [05:27] Most of the newer internet radio streaming services are all about recommendations [05:27] while that is fine, I like just browsing everything [05:49] uploading 2,000 vocaloid songs to archive.org [05:59] so i'm finding tons of odtv twit videos [05:59] like twit windows 7 house party [06:00] DFJustin, I follow u on the twitters now [06:07] zomg [06:10] all I do these days is retweet textfiles though lol [06:14] cyber stalking, easier than ever :D [06:14] or D: when you are on the other end [06:39] Vitorio went above the beyond [06:40] Refined then super refined, then ten times refined MESS building. [07:05] mistym: If you upload to archive.org, we don't have to go look for your binaries later and archive them seperately ;) [07:05] ersi: Also true ;) [07:06] And I'm sure they'd tell you, if what you're uploading is a problem [07:06] But.. I think it'll drown in comparison to SketchCow and godane's crazy uploading business ;) [07:39] i'm starting to upload this week in tech episodes for 2009 [07:50] so now i'm downloading 2002-06 of theguardian world articles [08:09] this is the start of the twit_show collection: http://archive.org/details/This_Week_in_Tech_214 [09:41] so looks like i'm i have a item in the top 3 of archiveteam-fire [09:42] my panic download of www.urinal.net [15:39] Seriously, to get archive.org's attention, you have to do insane shit. [15:39] xmc got their attention but mostly because of an extant bug from a machine movie. [15:39] move. [20:36] so i have 73k+ videos in g4video-web collection now [20:39] uploaded: http://archive.org/details/Double.Dare.The.Messiest.Moments.x264.Palsojom1.Spleen [21:10] http://youtu.be/QWU6tVxzO1I [21:24] looks like my upload of the kids guide to the internet had 38 downloads [21:24] thats Julian Assange in a rap video, by the way [21:24] godane link? [21:35] http://archive.org/details/The_Kids_Guide_to_the_Internet [21:36] so i'm uploading mighty micro series [21:38] made by this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Evans_%28computer_scientist%29 [21:50] i will have to redo mighty micro episode 2 since it was 3kb file
