01:15 🔗 starfag starfloor starwars are a bunch of peta files all that head talkin is for you to think like a peta file queer they are druggin you gay and stupid they know where all the missing kids are but they want to sing karoke all day like abunch of fagets
07:32 🔗 midas soo, yeah that was proper -bs
07:34 🔗 SketchCow Let's hire him.
10:39 🔗 * schbirid slaps midas with a tower of floppy discs
11:06 🔗 midas fuck, i got the disk laying at home.
11:08 🔗 midas 3TB disk schbirid, should be enough right?
11:23 🔗 schbirid midas: yeah
11:28 🔗 midas PM me your address, will drop it on mail tonight or tomorrow morning
12:32 🔗 godane so i'm up to clip id 551 of memritv.org
13:03 🔗 godane i also got april 2 2014 of global national
13:03 🔗 godane this is very good
13:04 🔗 godane there not even streaming it anymore
13:39 🔗 midas http://imgur.com/gallery/QHPJIbm nice one to remember
14:03 🔗 ZoeB OMG OMG OMG, Lynn Conway's following me back on Twitter! :D
14:03 🔗 ZoeB My life is at least 42% complete now
14:03 🔗 ZoeB Sorry for the gratuitous outburst, I didn't know who else to tell, I need to get my excitement out *somewhere*
14:04 🔗 Baljem Nice!
14:08 🔗 godane so i backing up the web stream versions of Global National
14:08 🔗 godane the web stream ones are 20mb bigger and have higher res
14:12 🔗 ZoeB So my public message browsing site is coming along nicely. It better guesses the message date, and you can browse by newsgroup/recipient (as in mailing list), year/month, and search: http://analogue.bytenoise.co.uk
14:13 🔗 ZoeB (This is really just a proof of method version with a few hundred messages about a single topic.)
14:13 🔗 ZoeB Eventually I'm hoping to get this working with tens/hundreds of millions of messages.
14:13 🔗 balrog nice :)
14:14 🔗 balrog this looks like something that would be worthwhile for other groups
14:14 🔗 balrog or lists
14:14 🔗 balrog just thought of yahoo group archiving again ... the recent "neo" change broke the utility that used to work
14:15 🔗 ZoeB Ack, damn Yahoo! (surely a common phrase around here)
14:15 🔗 balrog that utility is written in perl, and is a horrible mess, anyway...
14:15 🔗 ZoeB And yes, at the moment I'm sitting on about 4 million messages. I could extract them based on keywords into lots of different sites about different subjects, but eventually I'm hoping ot have them all together, with search that scales up well.
14:16 🔗 balrog how does your search currently work?
14:16 🔗 ZoeB On the site, it's a simple MATCH AGAINST
14:16 🔗 ZoeB but only on a subset of messages that in turn is tarballed based on a regex using a simpel bash script. Which takes about a week to execute on my Raspberry Pi, no kidding.
14:18 🔗 balrog so you're matching against the entire dataset?
14:19 🔗 schbirid sounds like a good candidate for postgresqql
14:20 🔗 balrog schbirid: some of my friends might suggest hadoop
14:20 🔗 schbirid tell them i suggest using postgresql
14:20 🔗 balrog there are a bunch of solutions though
14:20 🔗 schbirid based on zero experience
14:21 🔗 balrog :P
14:21 🔗 balrog I'm not sure how pgsql would scale, and it won't do the work for you
14:21 🔗 schbirid :D
14:21 🔗 schbirid pq has some awesome full text search
14:21 🔗 balrog basically the data needs to be indexed... some way
14:22 🔗 balrog http://stackoverflow.com/questions/737275/comparison-of-full-text-search-engine-lucene-sphinx-postgresql-mysql may have some answers
14:22 🔗 ZoeB Yes, I'm matching against all the people's names and message subjects, which I've done a fulltext index on.
14:23 🔗 ZoeB The search doesn't include message bodies yet
14:24 🔗 ZoeB As I'm making this all by myself at the moment, it's all in CakePHP, so one of my upcoming tasks is to make it use Cake's built-in paginator less so I can subnest queries, rather than the current hack that gets out IDs of matching sender names and passes them along to the next query.
14:24 🔗 ZoeB I realise this is currently bad practice, but as I say, it's more a proof of method at the moment. :)
14:24 🔗 schbirid balrog: 5 years old!
14:24 🔗 balrog schbirid: I know :) most of those are still in use though
14:24 🔗 balrog I last messed with this 1-2 years ago
14:25 🔗 schbirid yeah but software gets improved (or not, hi gnome) over time so comparisons fade
14:25 🔗 balrog true
14:25 🔗 schbirid time to bake cookies anyways: )
14:26 🔗 ZoeB It's academic anyway until I can host it somewhere better. Right now, I have to use LAMP and have a limit of the number of files I can have, which limits the number of messages.
14:26 🔗 ZoeB Baking cookies? Sounds fun! ^.^
14:28 🔗 balrog :( that's very limiting
14:32 🔗 godane i'm uploading the joy of painting season 6
14:34 🔗 SadDM Woo, more happy little trees!
14:35 🔗 midas lets make some birds here
14:54 🔗 godane so march 17 to 21 of global national videos don't exist anymore
14:54 🔗 godane but i will be able to get march 16
14:54 🔗 godane :P
14:55 🔗 godane so looks like they at least don't remove all episodes they just remove some
14:58 🔗 godane alot of it is using theplatform.com urls
14:58 🔗 godane and the funny part is theplatform.com i think is own by comcast
14:58 🔗 godane :P
14:59 🔗 godane thePlatform is a Seattle, WA-based online video publishing company, which was acquired by Comcast in 2006
14:59 🔗 godane so i was right
16:05 🔗 godane feb 2014 of global national is going be light
16:05 🔗 godane only 8 episodes so far
16:05 🔗 godane and i'm at feb 7 2014
16:06 🔗 godane also know that global national for march only had 20 episodes i could get
16:26 🔗 godane it looks like the weekend global national are still streamable
16:26 🔗 godane i also think only Robin Gill hosted ones are saved
16:26 🔗 godane but thats just a theory right now
16:50 🔗 godane good news is the very begining of january is still there for global national
17:29 🔗 Famicoman godane, if you get a chance, would you mind sharing your upload scripts for IA's S3?
18:06 🔗 yipdw there's a web developer in a nearby office ranting about Wordpress and responsive design
18:06 🔗 yipdw he has made me realize how stupid all of this tech shit sounds to sane people
18:07 🔗 exmic hah
18:08 🔗 yipdw and just imagine being at a tech conference, where you are immersed in that sort of stuff
18:09 🔗 yipdw it's like being Biff Tannen, covered in horseshit
20:15 🔗 midas offices tend to have that effect
20:15 🔗 midas they placed accounting next to sysop here
20:15 🔗 midas before it was next to SEO and development
20:15 🔗 midas they were fine, everybody was happy because nobody was next to sysops
20:15 🔗 midas and then they moved
20:16 🔗 midas developers at my work like clean offices, white walls and having whiteboards with idea's
20:17 🔗 midas me and the rest of the sysops are more, well we like our stuff in it's own place.
20:17 🔗 midas could be anywhere.
20:18 🔗 midas sticky stuff to throw at the windows, rocketlaunchers to shoot accounting, strange noises for the monitoring system etc
20:18 🔗 BiggieJon developers are sensitive creatures, cant mess up thier perfect work environment or they are totlally incapible of working
20:18 🔗 midas yep
20:19 🔗 midas that's probably why we're not allowed in that part of the office anymore
20:19 🔗 BiggieJon every time I have ameeting with them from the datacenter they freak out, cant imagine how I can work with so many parts laying around
20:19 🔗 midas there is structure in my chaos!
20:20 🔗 BiggieJon highly complex horizontal and vertical filing system
20:21 🔗 midas and do not touch it, it's structual integrity is not yet proven
20:22 🔗 BiggieJon my office is a health and safety nightmare
20:25 🔗 midas oh no worries, i never sleep in my office
20:25 🔗 midas i prefer the accounting office, they have a couch
20:25 🔗 BiggieJon i have my coworkers convinced I sleep under the flor at the datacenter
20:25 🔗 midas and rise up like dracula? :P
20:26 🔗 BiggieJon trying to get someone from facilites team to help me make ajoke video, show me oushig up a tile and crawling out in pajamas
20:26 🔗 midas hahha
20:26 🔗 midas man i want to work at a dc again

20:27 🔗 midas :p
20:27 🔗 midas so sure, but i need a work visum
20:28 🔗 BiggieJon i hope I can get someone hired before I have to start recruiting international
20:29 🔗 midas :P
21:41 🔗 godane Famicoman: here is my custom script i use to upload the Joy of painting collection: http://pastebin.com/1QUk781j
21:42 🔗 DFJustin wow good old curl
22:44 🔗 Famicoman Thanks, that is incredibly helpful
22:46 🔗 godane so i got 27 of the 31 broadcast for december 2013 of global national
22:50 🔗 godane i'm also getting a some episodes of nbc nightly news from 2011-03

22:55 🔗 godane don't want every magazine you upload saying bob ross on it :P
23:03 🔗 exmic hah
23:14 🔗 Famicoman lol
23:42 🔗 ohhdemgir Quote - "We're comfortable with the level of security we have here" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcoVMXLTQzw - screen running xp in the background, heh.
23:46 🔗 dashcloud definitely something you shouldn't say on TV or video
23:47 🔗 ohhdemgir these sites are still downloading - https://cdn.mediacru.sh/jY-iXBFDv4Nk.png - first 'big' sites I've come across
23:47 🔗 dashcloud in the unlikely event you're in the market for a mobile hardware hacking station/fully open source laptop, there's the Novena: https://www.crowdsupply.com/kosagi/novena-open-laptop
23:51 🔗 ohhdemgir aye I saw this, a little spendy tbh and I'm still waiting for my 2008 lenovo r500 to die, i've had other laptops since but always end up back with the r500 :3
23:52 🔗 dashcloud there's some rather badass stuff in there- especially if you backed before the funding campaign ended
23:53 🔗 ohhdemgir agreed, but not $2000 badass imo
23:54 🔗 dashcloud if you use even half of that equipment somewhat regularly, I'm sure it's worth the money, just to have everything in a nice compact case
