[01:46] I haven't seen any mention of this project here, and it's definitely something of interest: http://opensource.com/life/14/7/intervew-thomas-smith-project-gado (an open-source robotic scanner) [04:08] ಠ_ಠ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8056619 [04:10] this is an old copypasta from somewhere, maybe reddit [04:15] oh yeah, i see it is old. [08:12] i found a msnbc video about digg.com [13:41] anyone good with rsync? i have a copy of http://www.gamers.org/pub/idgames2/ which i want to rsync against again. originally i had used wget. there are some symlinks in there, for example the planetquake directory really is in ../something . [13:41] now i think i have tried all link options rsync offers with no success [13:41] --keep-dirlinks _should_ be what i want, but even that says things like "cannot delete non-empty directory: " "could not make way for new symlink: " when i try [13:42] i want symlinks on the source to be treated as normal directories [13:42] those directories already exist 99% complete on the receiver [13:42] but rsync does not seem to like that [13:42] any idea? [13:44] i should add that gamers.org is providing me with a non-public rsync access [13:44] and that no one should mirror gamers.org hard, they are on very limited resources and pay for overages [13:46] --no-implied-dirs says When pulling files from an rsync older than 3.0.0, you may need to use this option if the sending side has a symlink in the path you request and you wish the implied directories to be transferred as normal directories. [13:46] lets try [13:51] nah [13:54] ah, -a might be overriding things [13:54] as it sets --links (copy symlinks as symlinks) [14:01] maybe the host does not want to serve me the contents of the links as they are outside the directory, i will ask [18:28] hmmm [18:28] so you have symlinks out-of-tree and you want those to come over as real files, but you have symlinks in-tree and you want them as symlinks? [18:30] --copy-dirlinks transform symlink to dir into referent dir [18:30] ? [19:31] xmc: it was the host's configuration, all resolved now [19:31] ah good [19:34] thanks ;) [19:49] hm, on some rsyncs it does not output any file list once synced. another rsync always lists lots of directories every time i run it [20:00] something very odd there. [20:11] maybe they have different timestamps [20:39] i use -a so timestamps should be updated after one run [20:39] well, looks good enough :) [21:06] SketchCow's panel is up next at HOPE X. [21:06] you can watch here: http://radio.hope.net/feeds/ManningRoom.html [21:28] "Adobe Flash Player v10.1 or above is required for you to watch this video." \o/ [21:28] that's livestream for you [21:36] guess i am too spoiled from C3 infrastructure :) [21:40] nighty [23:11] Yahoo! Ending: We have for a while (well, I have) been talking about how there's money to be made in the distribution of digital assets post-death; now everyone's favourite 'not as good as it used to be' web giant Yahoo! have got in on the act in Japan with the wonderfully named Yahoo! Ending (also the exclamation mark in the brandname doesn't really work in this context, does it? Anyway, you can read about how it works here, [23:11] but before you do I urge you to click on the first link and marvel at some of the best mangled English in translation EVER. "I LOOK FOR THE GRAVE"! [23:11] oh right [23:11] Yahoo doing a post-death distribution service [23:11] WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG [23:13] wow, just wow [23:14] http://www.pcworld.com/article/2454800/dead-in-japan-yahoo-ending-has-all-you-need.html [23:14] http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/129901-yahoo-ending-in-japan-gives-last-will-writing-tips-then-deletes-all-your-data-after-you-die [23:14] well [23:15] at least they're doing something they're good at [23:15] deleting your data [23:15] lol [23:15] "YAHOOO!(!!) ending<.>" now that's how it should be named [23:15] sry [23:16] so does it delete your last will too? [23:17] OrdWolf: that depends on their acquisitions [23:17] ;) [23:17] also, this... is very interesting [23:17] http://www.imperica.com/en/news/web-curios-18-07-14 [23:17] this is almost a pre-web-2.0 listing of 'interesting new stuff on the internet' [23:18] I've missed those things :D [23:18] they always had the weirdest shit [23:21] "I can see the flow of your funeral!" [23:22] similarly, fuckinghomepage.com is interesting [23:24] awesome [23:24] apparently I disconnected [23:24] [01:22] similarly, fuckinghomepage.com is interesting [23:35] oh my god [23:36] yea well and my craptop overheated when i was reading that [23:39] lol [23:39] I should really move IRC to my laptop >.> [23:41] why... does konversation have htdig as an (indirect?) dependency [23:47] I have returned on ZNC!
