[00:08] Yeah [00:08] Maltese is this giant [00:09] Most of what you think of as funny in warner bros. cartoons is him. [00:09] he was so instrumental, they made a cartoon with him and one other wrtiter, just playing to stranded guys [00:09] Waikiki Wabbit [03:55] guessing everyone's seen this already, but if not: http://blog.backblaze.com/2014/01/21/what-hard-drive-should-i-buy/ hard data on hard drive reliability [04:12] dashcloud: interesting -- my experience is actually a bit of the opposite [04:13] that is, Seagates have lasted the longest for me :P [04:13] I've not tried Hitachi drives though [04:13] first time I've seen a study with hard data that names names [04:15] that probably means they'll anonymize it [04:15] TO THE BOTCAVE [04:16] I doubt it- it fits their company philosophy so far [04:16] rage, paranoia, and kleptomania [04:17] that's archiveteam's philosophy [04:29] have you already seen backblaze's storage pod designs? they've released the designs and parts for each version of their storage pods, and now have partnered with a partner to make getting all of the parts and cases easier [04:37] I haven't seen them [04:41] the latest version: http://blog.backblaze.com/2013/02/20/180tb-of-good-vibrations-storage-pod-3-0/ [04:42] if you'd prefer to buy pre-assembled cases, the people here: http://www.45drives.com/ will be happy to sell you them [04:58] bahaha [04:59] http://mashable.com/2014/01/24/yahoo-apologize-gmail-tweet/ [04:59] "Only Yahoo could come out of a Gmail outage looking worse than Google." [05:25] hahaha [05:25] as usual [10:18] heh [10:18] looks like the bui.pm guy noticed the archive.org upload [10:18] https://bui.pm/ded [10:21] Nice [10:22] +10 for him linking to it, -1 for linking to a specific server [10:22] :) [10:28] SketchCow: i think my upload is faster [10:28] only cause i was able to upload 16gb in under 6 hours [10:29] or maybe i'm just thinking that [10:36] You don't expect a guy who was running a 4chan archive to be the brightest bulb [10:43] Hah, true that. [12:17] so looks like bsofa on theblaze network was canceled [12:54] so some good news with abc news grab [12:54] i may be able to get all meta data of abc news videos [12:55] without trying 19 million urls [12:55] this is cause this exists: http://abcnews.go.com/meta/sitemap [13:20] so i found CBS Evening News from 2007 [15:32] i got about 135k video ids so far [17:34] hi folks, if you're interested in a long read on the Gamecube's birth and lifecycle, this is amazing: http://www.dromble.com/2014/01/07/dolphin-tale-story-of-gamecube/ [17:40] urgh, too much company politics in the beginning [17:54] is it just me, or has opengl.org given up on the idea of sane documentation [17:55] I mean, let's say you want to learn about GLSL as it applies to vertex shaders -- you will readily find links to the GLSL language specification and a very detailed description of a vertex shader's inputs and outputs, but what you will *not* find is the time-honored identity or "hello world" programs [17:56] meanwhile, in my copy of Interactive Computer Graphics, Fourth Edition, section 9.3.2 starts off with a vertex shader that implements the vertex processing stage of the traditional graphics pipeline, i.e. projection * modelview * vertex [17:56] seriously, how fucking hard is it to write documentation for programmers to use [17:56] do they expect everyone to buy expensive-ass textbooks [17:57] (I know the answer is "yes") [17:58] anyone here have experience with automated or semi-automated testing of GUI-based programs? [18:15] yipdw: I guess they've given up on rookie to intermediate users [18:43] ersi: it feels that way, like the wiki is written for people who wouldn't have a need to use it [21:45] http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1149 well you hear the jokes but you never expect there to be an actual RFC about it [21:46] there's even been a reference implementation, I believe [21:47] BlueMax: [21:47] 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=6165731.1 ms [21:47] 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=3211900.8 ms [21:47] PING 10.0.3.1 (10.0.3.1): 56 data bytes [21:47] ~$ ping -c 9 -i 900 10.0.3.1 [21:47] 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=5124922.8 ms [21:47] 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=6388671.9 ms [21:47] the ping would time out with that low TTL [21:47] ...why am I nitpicking a fake ping command [21:47] ... no, that's not fake [21:48] do I misunderstand how TTL works? [21:48] TTL is hops, remember, and they were only pinging one hop [21:48] ohhhhh [21:48] http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/ [21:48] right right [23:56] BlueMax: notice the date of that RFC [23:56] 19-fucking-90 [23:56] wow [23:56] also april 1 [23:58] >___>
