00:31 🔗 balrog oh yeah, if you're on iOS, update now
00:39 🔗 BiggieJon heh, just called my parents to check if they had updated ther iDevices
00:42 🔗 joepie91 BiggieJon: "update, why?"
00:42 🔗 joepie91 "there's a security problem"
00:42 🔗 joepie91 "but this is an apple, I can't get viruses!"
00:42 🔗 BiggieJon mom heard about it this morning, stole dads phone and did the update
00:43 🔗 joepie91 (how this conversation goes with most people)
00:43 🔗 joepie91 ah
00:43 🔗 joepie91 more technically clueful people then :)
00:43 🔗 BiggieJon my parents met in programming class in 1972
00:43 🔗 joepie91 ... ha
00:43 🔗 joepie91 lucky
00:43 🔗 BiggieJon passed notes to each other by inserting invalid punchcards in each others program decks
00:44 🔗 joepie91 bahaha
00:44 🔗 joepie91 classy :)
00:47 🔗 balrog this isn't about getting viruses, lol
00:47 🔗 balrog I'm about to update, just have to extract the relevant files for analysis
01:05 🔗 SadDM Found and uploaded the coolest zines that some guy did while he was in elementary school: https://archive.org/details/galactic_gazette_1
01:06 🔗 SadDM In other news, if you're using Amazon Glacier for backups I hope you're never in a hurry to restore your files...
01:07 🔗 SadDM I've been waiing for over 3 hours for 76MB of data to start restoring.
01:09 🔗 BiggieJon isnt that kinda the point ?
01:09 🔗 BiggieJon waiting for the tape robot to find your tape in the 2 bizillion tape library
01:11 🔗 SadDM it's true yeah, but my earlier mis-click has really reinforced it. ;-)
01:13 🔗 BiggieJon wish amazon would give you an estimate
01:15 🔗 * nico is thinking about uploading his backup.tar.gpg to glacier
01:15 🔗 SadDM yes, that would be nice... just to have some re-assurance that I'll be getting my data *eventually*
01:17 🔗 BiggieJon sorry, your tape is burried in a slat mine in nevada, we will schedule an excavation crew when we receive 100 requests for that container
01:19 🔗 nico BiggieJon: Aperture Science style ?
01:20 🔗 BiggieJon :)
01:21 🔗 BiggieJon we use glacier at work for logs past 6 months old, rarely ever need to restore anything past that
01:24 🔗 nico at $dayjob we fail logging compliance hard
01:37 🔗 dashcloud how do you deal with large plaintext log files? I accidentally let one of them get to 400 MB, and had to toss it because I couldn't open it locally, and the process to prune it on the server kept timing out
01:39 🔗 nico grep is able to select something in a 1gb+ file
01:40 🔗 godane i still can't upload to IA
01:40 🔗 godane :-(
01:41 🔗 nico godane: try the legacy ftp interface
01:48 🔗 DFJustin there are text viewers like 'less' that will only load the part of the file currently being viewed
01:49 🔗 godane looks like the files was upload anyways
01:49 🔗 godane i found it here: https://archive.org/details/cdrom-riscos-riscuser
01:50 🔗 DFJustin hey one of my uploads
01:54 🔗 godane ok its working now: https://archive.org/details/cdrom-twilight-030
02:00 🔗 SadDM nico: not to all like "min's bigger", but I zgrep'd a 20GB file just last night... I love modern unix tool.
02:31 🔗 godane CNN Money Archive: Register to vote on your Xbox: https://archive.org/details/news.xboxvote.090408.cnnmoney_576x324_dl
02:32 🔗 godane i didn't remember that
02:33 🔗 SadDM Woo! The tape monkeys at Amazon finally came through for me. It took a little over four hours, but getting that album back is maybe the best 14 cents I've ever spent.
04:25 🔗 BiggieJon 4 hours to load a tape from deep storage aint bad
04:25 🔗 xmc robots
04:25 🔗 xmc it's robots all the way down
04:25 🔗 SketchCow Hi again.
04:25 🔗 SketchCow Any news?
04:49 🔗 DFJustin copyin stuff off (c|dv)d-r media
04:49 🔗 SketchCow I am in Meza, Arizona from Monday night to tuesday morning
11:06 🔗 joepie91 <dashcloud>[05:37:37] how do you deal with large plaintext log files? I accidentally let one of them get to 400 MB, and had to toss it because I couldn't open it locally, and the process to prune it on the server kept timing out
11:06 🔗 joepie91 less will handle a 400MB logfile just fine
11:06 🔗 joepie91 or 4000MB for that matter
11:07 🔗 joepie91 as will other line-based tools like grep, as mentioned
11:07 🔗 joepie91 or tail for that matter - if you want to get rid of everything before the last 10,000 lines for example, you'd just do tail -n 10000 large.log > snipped.log
11:08 🔗 joepie91 nano is the only terminal tool I know of that would have a problem with a 400MB file :)
11:08 🔗 joepie91 it'd work, but veeeeery slowly
12:12 🔗 nico joepie91: try pico - it is worse :)
12:15 🔗 joepie91 I don't doubt that :)
12:24 🔗 nico https://bridges.torproject.org/robots.txt
12:24 🔗 nico w t f ?!?
12:25 🔗 ersi What's so "w t f ?!?" about it? That there's a bunch of comments?
12:26 🔗 nico that somebody took the time to write this page
12:37 🔗 Smiley wont load here, needs tor?
12:40 🔗 ersi no, it doesn't need tor
12:41 🔗 ersi nico: Yeah, there's many who do
12:41 🔗 ersi and "write"? most likely just copy pasted a bunch of ascii art
14:10 🔗 BERNICE67 take part in striking excalibur online competition: MAGEGO JUMBASTIC
14:10 🔗 Schbirid no
15:11 🔗 godane so more xml data from cnet: http://cnettv.cnet.com/9773-1_53-0-2008101024.xml
16:56 🔗 joepie91 do we have a copy of angelfire yet
16:56 🔗 joepie91 or tripod for that matter
16:58 🔗 dashcloud not a complete one- there's bit and pieces from various jobs, and whatever IA themselves have, but nothing even close to what the Geocities one had
16:59 🔗 dashcloud probably the easiest way to do a grab would be to pick a site that's part of a webring, and just grab out from there
17:05 🔗 joepie91 dashcloud: heh - it's almost as if they -made- it for archiveteam :)
19:52 🔗 DFJustin http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Number=322477
21:30 🔗 DFJustin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTKIgdfoHxM
21:47 🔗 nico running 2 vms is killing my laptop :(
22:10 🔗 godane hey Famicoman
22:43 🔗 DFJustin batting 1.000 so far on CD- and DVD-Rs
22:45 🔗 DFJustin I can't believe I watched anime at 352x240
22:54 🔗 DFJustin oh phooey a read error

23:14 🔗 SketchCow Yo dashcloud - 400mb logs are nothing!
