[00:38] dashcloud, joepie91: "most likely"? it is an unequivocal yes. [00:45] there's an "archival quality" brand of DVDs around; I wonder how good they actually are [00:45] "M-Disc" [00:45] they claim 1000-year longevity [00:46] how long have they been around? [00:46] you had better be testing and shifting periodincally, no matter what media you use. and have multiple copies. [00:46] Yes, they come with an aging immortal knight who will defend the disc's integrity through interlopers until finally giving it up to Indy Jones and his dad [00:46] er... periodically [00:47] (how did that n get there?) [00:49] how long? not all that long [00:49] that's why I said "I wonder how good they are" [01:08] i keep getting this as a collection: https://archive.org/details/gamecube_discs [01:08] but its not looking like a collection [01:08] never seen a collection look like a item [01:37] godane: that's definitely an item, not a collection [01:39] Are you guys stalking me again? [01:39] yes [01:39] i only found when looking at the cdbbsarchive collection [01:39] Well, guess what, for some reason, hundreds of Gamecube Disc Images seem to be difficult to interface with from a non-admin perspective. [01:40] but your able to make pc_cdrom and other collections without any problems [01:40] mmmmm. [01:41] That's because I get legal threats from "Nintendo" [01:41] as opposed to 'PC' [01:41] "Hi, we're from PC, we wish to file a complaint" [01:41] "As you know, PC is one of the largest suppliers of games in the world" [01:41] "People trust PC, and look for the PC seal approval when buying PC" [01:42] so i guess all of that is going dark then [01:42] Our top-selling PC products, "Game" and "Application" are best-sellers [01:45] at some point i need collections for my twilight, crazybytes, maximum pc, and boot magazine cds [01:45] maximum pc is going to be big [01:45] Yes [01:45] After I get my stuff done, I tend to go through your things and set up arrangements. [01:46] I'll be focusing pretty heavy on such throughout next year. [03:17] so they did finally suspend the Rock smartwatch kickstarter project today [03:18] it was rather interesting, and comical at times reading the comments and the updates (I just learned of it from Jason's tweet) [03:52] i didn't look too closely at it. what was up with it? [04:12] the guy was trying to pass off a generic Android smartwatch he bought from China, and touting all the advantages it had- and he wasn't very forthcoming with actual details [04:13] the first crack was the fact that the watch he and his company supposedly made bore a striking resemblance to one for sale on alibaba (Chinese electronics market) [04:15] the project page is still up (and archived anyway): http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/253126792/rocktm-first-qi-wifi-lifestyle-smartwatch-wireless/posts [04:16] then there was the usual hacker story when he or someone in the project went on a crazy tear, and the many patents he's filing and filed (none of which could be named, on advice of his lawyer), then the sockpuppeting [04:18] so has anyone in here ever successfully transplanted a recovery partition to a new hard drive and been able to run it then? I've spent pretty much all of today trying (and failing) to do that [04:19] normally I would just clone the hard drive or use the recovery discs, but the main drive partition is mostly or completely shot, and recovery discs were never made [04:32] It was great. [04:32] Nothing is better than a scam artist who doubles down when cornered [05:33] I hope all these people who decide to do these fake / moneygrubbing projects don't bring crowdfunding down as a thing [05:33] probably won't but still [06:52] so i just had another bluray disc i just burned failed [06:52] this is right after i burned [06:52] its very weird [06:53] the other 3 costers was cause these discs was trying to be 10x for some reason [06:53] this last one was burned at the right speed [06:53] with no errors [06:56] there are often bad batches. and bad manufacturers. [06:57] plus, there are sometimes combinations of discs and drives that don't get along [06:57] (at least that was true of DVD. I would be surprised if it didn't extend into blu) [06:57] whats funny is that i'm using memorex drive with memorex discs :P [06:58] those memorex discs are likely CMC Magnetics or some other cheap OEM [06:58] the name on the label is meaningless [06:59] whats a good name bluray bland then? [06:59] also this stuff was just going to be move to another drive anyways [06:59] the blurays are for back of the back [07:00] *the blurays are a blackup of the backup [07:03] http://static.fjcdn.com/pictures/Call_82a6e8_1156708.jpg [07:04] i have bad typing at times [07:32] i may get Electronique et Loisirs Magazine for you guys [07:56] man. I love that Skip's uploading a bunch of videos to youtube, but it gets a bit spammy on twitter :-\ [08:16] so starting to look like the bottom half of my discs maybe a bad batch [08:17] the 2nd one i have burned had the same problem [08:17] its funny in that its only cause problems with one folder [08:18] when i try to scan thur my wilkow folder to check the sha256sum [08:18] 04 folder is fine and everything checks out there [08:58] do we have LED - Loisirs Electroniques D'Aujourd'Hui magazine some whare [08:58] *where [08:58] cause i just found it on scribd [08:58] and it goes back to 1982 [08:58] i will see about grabing it for you guys [11:45] any idea how i can remove commas in one column of a tab-separated file? [11:45] awk 'FS="\t",OFS="\t" {print $1, $2, $3, $4}' [11:46] $4 is the one [11:46] i tried '{print $1, $2, $3, gsub(",", "", $4)}' but that just gave me a 0 for every row [12:15] awk -F "\t" '{gsub(/,/,"",$4)}1' OFS="\t" [13:59] whoop whoop: http://owely.com/3OqmTc [15:50] cool joepie91 :) [16:10] i am hosting a quake deathmatch server for webquake at the moment: http://webquake.quaddicted.com/WebQuake.htm?+connect%20ws://webquake.quaddicted.com:26000 [16:10] that's html5/js/webgl quake engine and a node.js server (which it why it eats 100% cpu after 3-4 players join..) [16:10] https://github.com/SiPlus/WebQuake is the source [16:18] Trying it. [16:21] http://webquake.quaddicted.com for more info [16:22] mouse look seems broken in chrome/ium [16:23] It is. [16:23] But it's fun [16:23] very much [16:24] had some games yesterday with random strangers lagging like in 1996 with keyboard play :) [16:55] oh man, mouse being broken is bad, but this is epic! [18:10] :P [18:10] Schbirid: it even emulates the crappy! [18:11] OK. i have a dilemma [18:12] what to do: i need a new server because my old one is eating the planet's oil reserves. Should i go for at least the same amount of storage or less storage and lower power bill [18:13] FYI: old one is using 500+ watts [18:19] m1das: I guess introducing power generation from renewable resources isn't an option [18:20] yipdw: not really [18:21] probably my biggest issue is that im running with 25 disks [18:21] how about reducing how much power each disk tasks [18:21] takes [18:22] so less is more, swapping the 1 and 1.5TB disks for 4TB will reduce the power consumption [18:22] but my areca controller isnt that power friendly either [18:23] so was thinking of replacing the entire box for a i5 (current xeon), load of memory, zfs on linux, simple sata onboard controller [18:24] maybe sell the old one for some extra cash :p [18:25] or less drives than that, maybe 6x4TB, less space but thats okayish [18:27] maybe use mdadm, i like the idea to grow my data pool later on [19:40] so I think I made my decision which computer I'm going to buy [19:40] m1das: use less hungry HDDs? :P [19:41] and yeah I've asked it before, but for the last time, could you guys please look at this and what you think about with the price? [19:41] - Intel Core i5-4570 processor with 3.2 GHz and 6 MB Smart Cache [19:41] - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 with 1536 MB [19:41] - 1 TB hard drive [19:41] - 128 GB SSD [19:41] - 16 GB SDRAM on 1600 MHz [19:41] - HDMI, USB 3.0, WiFi, Gigabit LAN en CD/DVD [19:41] price: 799 euros [19:44] that seems a bit pricey, arkiver [19:44] hmm [19:44] should be possible to cut out at least 100 euro from that price [19:45] from a first look [19:45] is this a pre-built? [19:45] well I've compared it to other computers and this one clearly was much for the price... [19:45] yep [19:45] pre built [19:45] try looking at different stores, or even just getting the parts separately and self-assembling [19:45] I mean, it's not super expensive this way, but definitely more expensive than it could be for those specs [19:46] the processor is quite good I think: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-4570+%40+3.20GHz&id=1896 [19:46] other useful tips would be trying to switch out things like the GFX card for one that scores slightly lower but is much cheaper [19:46] that often helps a lot [19:46] and the videocard is at place 13... http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/video_lookup.php?gpu=GeForce+GTX+760&id=2561 [19:46] yeah well [19:47] I never really assembled a computer [19:47] arkhive: it doesn't take a rocket scientist [19:47] but I think I'm just going to do that one [19:47] just plug in stuff where it fits [19:47] lol [19:47] :P [19:47] that's seriously pretty much how to assemble a PC [19:47] lol wrong guy [19:47] oh... [19:47] I'm arkhive [19:47] I'm arkiver [19:47] he's arkiver [19:47] oops [19:47] :) [19:47] stole my name [19:47] ha [19:47] lol [19:47] stop having such similar nicks D: [19:47] i wish you could add stripes to raidz/z2/z3 [19:48] i was first. heh :P [19:48] hehe [19:48] but it isn't really called for in an enterprise setting [19:48] idc, just make it stop :P [19:48] :D [19:48] emoticon overload [19:48] on a more serious note [19:48] :) [19:48] * joepie91 is rolling out server monitoring [19:48] :D [19:48] :P [19:48] O.o [19:49] http://owely.com/6f75W4 [19:49] also, the xeons based on the core-i5 are E5 [19:51] heh.. they had an article in wired magazine a few years ago on the history of emoticons.. neat article. anyway.. gotta study for final tomorrow. and get a new mouse. i'm still using my logitech wired mouse from like 2006. now there is all this DPI stuff and laser vs optical blah blah. and need a new keyboard for my iMac.. the wireless one that came with it BLOWZ! [19:53] awful. crammed together with no number pad and no backlit blah blah. but anyway in the market for new mouse and keyboard for iMac. that razor ouroboros is 150 USD with 8200 dpi. must be good if it costs that much.. heh. [19:56] and that Razer DeathStalker Ultimate for 250 USD. lol. is it even worth it for the most avid gamer out there? I rarely PC game and just use my iMac for some coding and IRC. [19:56] arkhive: expensive != necessarily good [19:56] ahh.. anyway i'm talking enough.. Just need to find a good keyboard with num pad. full keyboard. [19:56] my all-time favourite mouse is a 25 or 35 (I forgot) Medion laser mouse from the Aldi [19:57] ya.. i know.. was a joke heh. the webpage advertising it makes it look so cool(isn't that the point though lol) [19:57] just plug in stuff where it fits <- as someone who once forced an IDE plug upside down into the new hdd i kinda agree anyways [19:58] rofl [19:58] Schbirid: the problem there is 'force' :) [19:58] i glued the broken pin back in and returned it just fine! [19:59] it still worked, it was just slow (UDMA something not working) [20:02] lol [20:03] so [20:03] when I have a new computer I got like 16 GB of memory and then I'll be able to archive a lot more [20:03] I'm thinking starting with crawling news websites [20:04] starting with my own country's newswebsites [20:04] and then going country by country [20:04] to have everything saved [20:04] As soon as I get faster internet I will help with Warrior. My city needs gigabit [20:04] What country you in, arkiver? [20:04] the netherlands [20:05] so I'll create a list of dutch websites first [20:05] ah. cool. My dad goes there for business sometimes. [20:05] and then I'd like to ask other to create a list of the biggest news sites from their countryu [20:05] from where are you? [20:05] USA [20:05] ah maybe you can help then by putting a list together [20:06] :) [20:06] from your newswebsites [20:06] for news like paper news but the website version? I just read the wall street and denver post [20:07] i first tought you were talking to yourself arkiver, but then i noticed the small difference... [20:07] for other news i read arstechnica, cnet, news.google.com/technology or whatever, [20:07] hahah [20:07] actually laughed out loud [20:08] :P @ m1das [20:08] joepie91: less powerhungry drives, really doesnt matter as i still have 24 of them :( [20:08] so I'll create a list of the websites in the wiki next week [20:08] WD greens [20:08] and will keep that up to date with the newest downloads [20:08] WD!! [20:08] best ever! [20:08] got 6 harddrives of them [20:08] 5*3 TB [20:09] 1*2 TB [20:09] 17 TB [20:09] joepie91: i prefer hitachi (the old ones) but still, dropping from 6 to 5 watts isnt going to change that much [20:09] I think they work perfectly no noise at all [20:09] i've got a list somewhere of things i'd like to add to the wiki project ideas.. never edited a wiki though. [20:09] arkhive: maybe we can start working on that list together [20:09] :) [20:09] do you have windows? [20:10] biggest problem i have is the areca, she is power hungry and wont spindown since the last update [20:10] ah.. a good site to get if it hasn't already been copied is the Lego set instructions scans database [20:10] i have windows machines and an iMac. not running any linux machines at the moment [20:10] brb [20:11] k [20:12] damn i need some kind of tab/window manager for chrome and firefox. I have 5 FF windows open with a bunch of tabs on each and 7 chrome windows with a ton of tabs each. [20:13] but ya.. anyway.. the sites that have scans of lego set instructions would be good to grab [20:14] anyone want Tropico 3 Steam Special Edition Steam key. I have an extra. [20:17] m1das | i first tought you were talking to yourself arkiver, but then i noticed the small difference... [20:17] worst part is weechat makes them both bold cyan [20:17] xmc: indeed [20:17] why do you people all have so much disk space [20:17] I only have 40GB ;_; [20:18] joepie91: http://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/ [20:18] boo [20:23] i want to buy a tank. [20:23] a real tank? like an abrhams or whatever? [20:23] a T55 recovery tank [20:23] they cost the same as a Skoda Octavia [20:24] just alot more fun [20:25] or a ATS 59 tracktor [20:33] so [20:51] hmm someone knows what the difference is between a graphics card and a processor? [20:58] i'm grabing LED - Loisirs Electroniques D'Aujourd'Hui magazine from t411.com [20:58] at least part1 [20:59] whats weird is the radio count has not changed [20:59] hmm [21:00] well that domain name certainly sounds suspicious... (blocked by noscript) iesnare (dot) com [21:32] http://owely.com/23ml1o :D [22:17] arkiver: what difference in particular are you looking for
