[00:05] SketchCow: why do I want to hug you? [00:05] * BlueSleep hugs SketchCow [00:07] SketchCow: http://71.126.138.142/storage2/1978-ComputerFairePrcd-TOC.txt [00:07] That acceptable? [00:12] country: AU [00:12] descr: Internet service provider [00:12] inetnum: 59.167.0.0 - 59.167.255.255 [00:12] netname: INTERNODE2-NET [00:12] Loooook who's in Australia [00:12] ;) [00:14] :< [00:14] If only I had a teleportation device [00:32] BlueMax: lol [00:32] SketchCow: Up to scratch? :P [03:00] * underscor cries because SketchCow is ignoring him [03:00] He ignores me too [03:21] There's a face I haven't seen in ages [03:26] It's a pretty cool face. [03:27] What's up? [03:27] Nothing worth mentioning [03:27] No news? [03:28] 8=====D ~o ~o ~o ~o [03:28] Hey there, underscor. [03:28] New York passed the marriage equality bill! [03:28] Wassup home fry [03:28] :D [03:29] Not much. [03:29] You totally need to go meat up with SketchCow [03:29] Er, meet* [03:29] Why's that? [03:29] Is he around? [03:29] He's in AU [03:30] No idea where though [03:30] Oh, he's finally here? [03:30] Ah. [03:30] I mean, the populated area of australia is like, what, the size of Rhode Island? [03:30] ;D [03:30] Yeah, and spread out across a whole continent. [03:30] Hahaha [03:31] Hey guys, random question, how would I convert a PowerPoint to DVD format [03:31] Recording it is probably the easiest way. [03:32] I'd be surprised if there was actually an app to turn PowerPoint slides into video directly. [03:32] * underscor fires up pp2dvd in linux [03:32] D: [03:32] jk, that would be cool if it existed [03:32] Actually, I have Camtasia in it [03:32] Yeah, I'd just use a screen recorder and do it. [03:32] http://www.ppt-to-dvd.com/ :| [03:33] Haha [03:33] Wow. [03:33] And for the low, low price of $99! [03:34] Ah damnit [03:36] if you do a quick google search of free ppt to dvd you'll get tons of results [03:36] I did, I'm looking through them now [03:36] And they're probably all adware/spyware [03:36] ;P [03:36] :D [03:37] more than likely they're just fancy wrappers around FFmpeg (nearly every video transcoder is) [03:37] FFmpeg doesn't do stuff with ppt though [03:37] Fair point but hey, if it works it works [03:39] Hell knows what it does [03:48] You can script powerpoint to export pngs of every slide [03:48] Howso [03:49] I can work with that, I have a video editor [03:50] Oh wait [03:50] PowerPoint has the feature I need [03:53] Argh [03:53] It didn't work [03:56] Nevermind, found the PNG feature [03:56] I'm crap at this aren't I [06:08] http://www.worldofspectrum.org/warajevo/Story.html <-- story of old-school badassery [06:14] (more badass than stuff typically called "badassery") [11:04] That is actually kinda badass [12:23] i totally forgot my robots.txt thing [20:16] hrm [20:16] I can't tell if this email is spam or not: [20:16] From: "Tor.com" [20:16] Subject: First Chapter of Fire Upon the Deep Sequel [20:16] it could be a phish designed to directly target me [20:17] I really, really, want to click the link in the email [20:17] strip away anything that looks like a identifier and use tor [20:17] heh [20:18] that's all the links are [20:18] http://click.mail.macmillan.com/?qs=8059a2ab58e222facc62b8e7b45abcb785ddfb9597a5b7ceb725d6b92ea84b97 [20:18] (and that's one heck of an identifier [20:18] )( [20:18] and if anyone visits it your address is marked as valid and click happy [20:19] hm, on the other hand it looks kinda legit [20:19] exactly [20:19] I've heard that sort of thing called "spearphishing" [20:19] actually [20:19] you should do this: [20:19] yea, I've heard that term too [20:19] reply and say DONT FUCKING OBFUSCATE URLS YOU SEND ME [20:20] hmm, wikipedia mentions the sequel too [20:20] and tinyurl goatse to it [20:20] Spirit_: heh [20:20] Reply-To: "Macmillan" [20:20] rather check what server it came from [20:22] I think this is spam but not an actual phish [20:23] an advertisement but not malicious [20:23] http://pastebin.com/DdE1AHZk [20:23] wonder why the ids are so big? [20:24] that's 256 bits worth [20:24] heh, wow [20:35] Tor Books is a subsidiary of Macmillan Publishing [20:48] yes [20:48] annoyingly, I can't find any mention of this on their site [20:50] aha, have to search on macmillan.com, not tor books [21:46] What hard drive error checker/surface scanner tool for windows would you guys reccomend? [22:49] New drive [22:49] what's that bring your total to? [22:50] oh, unless you were replying to arkhive :) [22:52] :( [22:52] this script didn't make a zfs snapshot when it finished [22:54] hrm [22:58] So, talking about The Stuff [22:59] Basically, this timeshift is brutal, I don't know how anyone gets anything done down here with regards to US counterparts, you have almost no overlap AND the day is one ahead. [23:00] Additionally, I'm actually tring to enjoy/go out for all this stuff I'm here in the country for, and when I get back, I am always wiped to shit. I may try doing actual caffienated uptime later this evening, after a day of driving around and seeing stuff. I suspect I've walked a dozen miles or more. [23:01] So, if people need my response on something, mail jason@textfiles.com and I will see it as soon as I get back from stuff. [23:01] yea, email is best across timezones, since it's async [23:03] huh [23:03] what does a return value of 8 from sudu mean? [23:05] maybe it's passing the return value from inside [23:07] ah [23:42] gah [23:42] I want to strangle wget [23:42] or my computer, or something [23:42] If I run /usr/local/bin/wget --progress=dot:giga http://db48x.net/robots.txt in one directory, I get "Invalid dot style specification `giga'; leaving unchanged." [23:43] if I run the same command from a different directory (and a different shell, hmmm), it works just fine
