00:08 🔗 SketchCow Yeah
00:08 🔗 SketchCow Maltese is this giant
00:09 🔗 SketchCow Most of what you think of as funny in warner bros. cartoons is him.
00:09 🔗 SketchCow he was so instrumental, they made a cartoon with him and one other wrtiter, just playing to stranded guys
00:09 🔗 SketchCow Waikiki Wabbit
03:55 🔗 dashcloud 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 🔗 yipdw dashcloud: interesting -- my experience is actually a bit of the opposite
04:13 🔗 yipdw that is, Seagates have lasted the longest for me :P
04:13 🔗 yipdw I've not tried Hitachi drives though
04:13 🔗 dashcloud first time I've seen a study with hard data that names names
04:15 🔗 yipdw that probably means they'll anonymize it
04:15 🔗 yipdw TO THE BOTCAVE
04:16 🔗 dashcloud I doubt it- it fits their company philosophy so far
04:16 🔗 yipdw rage, paranoia, and kleptomania
04:17 🔗 dashcloud that's archiveteam's philosophy
04:29 🔗 dashcloud 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 🔗 yipdw I haven't seen them
04:41 🔗 dashcloud the latest version: http://blog.backblaze.com/2013/02/20/180tb-of-good-vibrations-storage-pod-3-0/
04:42 🔗 dashcloud 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 🔗 joepie91 bahaha
04:59 🔗 joepie91 http://mashable.com/2014/01/24/yahoo-apologize-gmail-tweet/
04:59 🔗 joepie91 "Only Yahoo could come out of a Gmail outage looking worse than Google."
05:25 🔗 xmc hahaha
05:25 🔗 xmc as usual
10:18 🔗 joepie91 heh
10:18 🔗 joepie91 looks like the bui.pm guy noticed the archive.org upload
10:18 🔗 joepie91 https://bui.pm/ded
10:21 🔗 SketchCow Nice
10:22 🔗 joepie91 +10 for him linking to it, -1 for linking to a specific server
10:22 🔗 joepie91 :)
10:28 🔗 godane SketchCow: i think my upload is faster
10:28 🔗 godane only cause i was able to upload 16gb in under 6 hours
10:29 🔗 godane or maybe i'm just thinking that
10:36 🔗 SketchCow You don't expect a guy who was running a 4chan archive to be the brightest bulb
10:43 🔗 ersi Hah, true that.
12:17 🔗 godane so looks like bsofa on theblaze network was canceled
12:54 🔗 godane so some good news with abc news grab
12:54 🔗 godane i may be able to get all meta data of abc news videos
12:55 🔗 godane without trying 19 million urls
12:55 🔗 godane this is cause this exists: http://abcnews.go.com/meta/sitemap
13:20 🔗 godane so i found CBS Evening News from 2007
15:32 🔗 godane i got about 135k video ids so far
17:34 🔗 dashcloud 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 🔗 ersi urgh, too much company politics in the beginning
17:54 🔗 yipdw is it just me, or has opengl.org given up on the idea of sane documentation
17:55 🔗 yipdw 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 🔗 yipdw 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 🔗 yipdw seriously, how fucking hard is it to write documentation for programmers to use
17:56 🔗 yipdw do they expect everyone to buy expensive-ass textbooks
17:57 🔗 yipdw (I know the answer is "yes")
17:58 🔗 dashcloud anyone here have experience with automated or semi-automated testing of GUI-based programs?
18:15 🔗 ersi yipdw: I guess they've given up on rookie to intermediate users
18:43 🔗 yipdw ersi: it feels that way, like the wiki is written for people who wouldn't have a need to use it
21:45 🔗 BlueMax 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 🔗 Baljem there's even been a reference implementation, I believe
21:47 🔗 RedType_ BlueMax:
21:47 🔗 RedType_ 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=6165731.1 ms
21:47 🔗 RedType_ 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=3211900.8 ms
21:47 🔗 RedType_ PING 10.0.3.1 (10.0.3.1): 56 data bytes
21:47 🔗 RedType_ ~$ ping -c 9 -i 900 10.0.3.1
21:47 🔗 RedType_ 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=5124922.8 ms
21:47 🔗 RedType_ 64 bytes from 10.0.3.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=6388671.9 ms
21:47 🔗 BlueMax the ping would time out with that low TTL
21:47 🔗 BlueMax ...why am I nitpicking a fake ping command
21:47 🔗 Baljem ... no, that's not fake
21:48 🔗 BlueMax do I misunderstand how TTL works?
21:48 🔗 Baljem TTL is hops, remember, and they were only pinging one hop
21:48 🔗 BlueMax ohhhhh
21:48 🔗 Baljem http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/
21:48 🔗 BlueMax right right
23:56 🔗 Coderjoe BlueMax: notice the date of that RFC
23:56 🔗 BlueMax 19-fucking-90
23:56 🔗 BlueMax wow
23:56 🔗 Coderjoe also april 1
23:58 🔗 BlueMax >___>
