[00:33] Gotta love a 60 hour ETA for an rsync [00:33] :( [00:40] sundown: there's also selenium [00:41] selenium is more intended for driving browsers to test websites during development (to make what are essentially unit tests), but I suspect it could be used for other purposes [00:44] NaCL (Native Client, also called "Salt") is something I'm aware of. I am not interested in porting to NaCL. [00:44] NaCL is, essentially flash. [00:44] A plugin. [00:44] I don't wish to port MAME to Chrome. [00:44] js+html5 should be able to handle it. it might be slow for a bit until js runtimes improve, but it can handle it [00:45] that canvas is crazy [00:45] I do not wish to hitch the porting of mame/mess to Google's whims. How about that. [00:45] Next, let's try porting MAME to javascript before we DECIDE HOW IT WILL RUN [00:46] dashcloud: Yes, game manuals too. [00:47] at no point was I saying "don't do it because it will run like shit" or anything of the sort [00:48] Coderjoe: It's not all about you. [00:48] 14:35 < balrog> still, running MAME in javascript ... that's gonna be pathetically slow [00:48] Oh look, another person talking not you [00:48] Now, give me a moment, Schbirid definitely gave me the weirdest single way to transfer over a torrent ever. [00:49] I can't believe that worked. [00:50] Anyway, every single person in this channel could tell me not to do it and I'd do it. [00:50] As it is, people are taking wait and see and I'm fine with that. [00:51] my berlios chunk is uploaded to the batcave [00:52] Thanks [00:52] I'm going to have a hell of time throwing this all together. [01:09] The Google Groups thing is crazy. [01:09] Meanwhile, I uploaded a terabyte today. [01:14] mmm, terabytes [01:31] Gabillions of them [01:42] Huh. [01:42] So 730gb file here [01:42] I do an untar to split it up [01:43] It makes 138gb of files. [01:43] Trying to see what the hell's up. [01:44] strange [01:44] are they a zillion teensy files, smaller than the tar header block? [01:44] s/zillion/metric fuckzillion/ [02:19] What's interesting is that it DEFINITELY unpacks 6300097-6399947 [02:19] Which is, you know, standardly fine assignment set. [02:22] 6,300,000 - 6,400,000 (6,378 Users, 44,962 videos, 849gb) Guan (to underscor) [02:22] So, something's messed up there. [02:24] I probably still have that laying around here [02:25] I'll have underscor look at his copy. [02:25] If you don't I will murder you [02:25] You have drives aplenty [02:25] Butbutbut [02:25] THERE'S SOME MOTIVATION - MURDER [02:25] where do I keep my porn then????? [02:26] I guess technically I can just set you loose on the local machine. [02:27] I'm doing two unpacks. Then we can think about it. [02:27] And by think about it I mean later. [02:27] I got a lot uploaded, we have 17tb free, we don't need to handle it today. [02:27] And I was invited to a bar crawl that I should attend. [02:28] But I am interested in that mystery. [02:28] It stands out too. [02:30] What do you mean, "I can just set you loose on the local machine" [02:30] I can have you look at this file, locally. [02:30] And analyze it. [02:30] Then compare to your machine. [02:30] oh, right [02:31] just send me the path or w/e and chmod a+r [02:31] Right. [02:31] Tomorrow [02:31] k [02:32] I have so much money to make films [02:32] Going to make some great films. [02:34] And history! [02:34] P.S. really, go check out that DNA lounge collection, that's by my estimate 10,000 hours of music. [02:36] Talk to people tomorrow, I am SURE I'll be in an awesome mood then. [02:53] http://www.kickstarter.com/profile/textfiles is this screaming angry jason or orgasmic jason? [02:53] Woah [02:53] Is it just me or have drive prices jumped like crazy? [02:54] floods in thailand kicked a significant fraction of hdd fab capacity offline for about 6 months starting now [02:54] $140 for a 2TB?! [02:54] Oh shi- [02:54] right. [02:54] That really sucks [02:54] prices aren't going down for a while. [02:54] :( [02:54] yup [02:55] http://www.computerworlduk.com/news/it-business/3313928/thai-floods-unlikely-to-cause-hard-drive-price-rise-soon/ [02:55] Yeah right [02:56] Fucking thailand [02:56] How inconsiderate [02:56] underscor: floods in thailand driving the prices up [02:57] thucknig failand [02:57] the prices went up because retailers saw a way to gouge on the disaster with existing supply and new supply made elsewhere [02:57] ^ [02:57] retailers/mfgrs/etc [02:58] I bought a pile of disk right before the news came out [02:58] so I'm sitting pretty [02:58] >:| [02:58] Disks were actually getting pretty affordable [02:59] they always approach that [02:59] but then files just get bigger [02:59] http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/cgal_manual/Minkowski_sum_3/Chapter_main.html <-- minkowski sum is a neat operation [02:59] Jeez [03:00] Everything on newegg is limit 1 per customer [03:00] people see disaster and reactive price rise and panic, causing a shortage [03:30] But so far, nothing too bad. I hope people keep their copies of stuff they uploaded, when possible, until they see it active on archive.org. [03:30] I keep all [03:30] in two places until it gets to you [03:30] that may change as projects get bigger though [04:46] Hey I'm new - is anyone here? [04:46] I have a serious proposal to make regarding Facebook Groups [04:46] details at http://www.quora.com/Is-there-any-project-to-archive-the-info-boxes-for-all-the-old-facebook-groups?q=archive+old+facebook+groups [04:52] PS: are the convos in this room logged? i'd like to see them [04:55] closure: Upload of chunk-10 and chunk-11 to batcave complete. [04:56] Simfish: yes check the topic [04:58] what about logs before 7 days ago? [05:00] Simfish: Just change the date in the url [05:00] okay [05:00] does anyone want to save old facebook groups? [05:02] Facebook is one of those things SketchCow is finnicky about [05:02] But you're welcome to help round up some volunteers! [05:02] hmm what do you mean by that? [05:02] how is he finnicky about them? [05:03] We have tons of subprojects that he's not even involved in [05:03] He thinks facebook is the SPAWN OF SATAN [05:03] hahaha [05:03] oh ok [05:03] is SketchCow the leader? [05:03] mascot [05:03] ah [05:03] what about old gaming clan websites? [05:04] that'd also be a good project [05:04] both will require some level of inside access [05:04] ah okay [05:04] a facebook login for the former [05:05] what about adding reddit to the http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Fire_Drill ? [05:05] oh yeah - does anyone have any ajax parsing scripts? [05:05] go for it [05:05] ajax parsing? [05:05] i know some people who wrote scripts to deal with the annoying ajax "click more" buttons [05:05] yea [05:05] ah [05:05] we haven't needed that yet [05:05] oh i see [05:06] what about archiving reddit? [05:07] oh yeah does anyone use CrashPlan? [05:07] also how are we going to guard against EMP pulses? [05:08] punched paper tape is proof against EMP [05:09] Stone engraving is proof against EMP and fire [05:09] punched hdpe plastic tape is proof against EMP and decomposition of most every kind [05:09] but we have not need for that yet [05:10] http://www.quora.com/Will-historians-of-the-future-be-doomed-to-failure-because-of-the-methods-of-information-storage-we-use-today [05:11] yeah we're fucked. [05:15] does anyone know how i could preserve a site like http://www.autoadmit.com [05:21] http://autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1795180 [05:21] iterate through the urls: [05:22] oh good pt. but i'd like to preserve the internal linking from the thread page [05:22] ? [05:22] thread index [05:22] problem is [05:22] threads are posted every few seconds [05:22] Hey Simfish [05:22] but eh, there's a lot of redundancy in thread index [05:22] okay i'll talk [05:29] http://www.norsam.com/rosetta.html [05:47] are external HDs reliabel to get off ebay [05:48] reliable*? [05:52] does the team hang out on reddit? [06:18] archiveteam does not use reddit [06:19] never buy used disks [06:41] yea, if you buy a used disk you never know what you'll get [12:05] Simfish: You can't even know what you get when you buy new hard drives. They can be DOA [12:05] honestly the key is just to never rely on any single storage device/media [12:07] and at least with a new HD that is DOA, a replacement is very straightforward in most cases [14:15] with new drives, they are usually DOA or die at least a few years down the line. (yes, some die in the middle, but that is far less common) [14:15] with used drives, you have little idea how much abuse they had previously [19:21] so berlios project done? [19:39] balrog: you need to upload your stuff to batcave [19:39] I need info on where to upload [19:39] SketchCow can set you up with an account when his plane lands [19:40] ok. [19:40] dashcloud yipdw wyatt Coderjoe ersi: you need to upload your Belios stuff too.. [20:31] closure: [Oct 29 11 20:51] my berlios chunk is uploaded to the batcave [20:36] I've got my berlios stuff ready for upload- just need info on uploading it [20:55] *hug* [21:30] closure: I told you I have. [23:32] Recommendations for a photosharing site? [23:32] Leaning towards Flickr pro [23:32] Phanfare looks nice, but too $ [23:47] closure: it's uploading
