00:05 🔗 godane added this: http://archive.org/details/Maximum_CD_Dec_2010_Jan_2011_Special_Issue
01:01 🔗 Coderjoe grr
01:01 🔗 Coderjoe <Error><Code>InvalidArgument</Code><Message>Invalid Argument</Message><Resource>Meta header: 'description' contains control characters:
01:02 🔗 Coderjoe but I'm not sure what control characters are there that it is complaining about
01:02 🔗 Coderjoe and it happily seems to return a success http response code for that, too
01:02 🔗 Coderjoe (the s3 interface at IA)
01:07 🔗 DFJustin maybe a tab character?
01:10 🔗 Coderjoe it would be quite nice if it told you what the problem was, rather than spitting the whole string back at me saying "something is wrong here. fix it."
01:13 🔗 frame_at Ever since Maniac Mansion I knew computers would never get beyond "You cannot do that" type of feedback. We're kids to them, face it.
02:16 🔗 SketchCow Game-related research? Oh yes
02:18 🔗 winr4r evening/morning cow
02:19 🔗 ragechin hey Jason
02:20 🔗 SketchCow Hi.
02:29 🔗 mistym SketchCow: Yeah, I remember you were bringing something up that was disappearing soon, but I don't remember the url.
02:30 🔗 SketchCow http://digiplay.info/search
02:30 🔗 SketchCow Now gone.
02:30 🔗 mistym Oh geeze. Crap. That was fast.
02:30 🔗 winr4r :\
02:30 🔗 SketchCow Yes, that's what it's like here.
02:30 🔗 SketchCow 13:50 < emijrp> it is only a bunch of links
02:30 🔗 winr4r did you get it?
02:30 🔗 SketchCow emijrp said "nah, no big thing"
02:30 🔗 SketchCow And now it is gone.
02:31 🔗 SketchCow I didn't get it - I asked people here to step forward and get it.
02:31 🔗 SketchCow I'm trying to stop the FOS machine from overflowing with mobileme.
02:31 🔗 mistym :/ I should have moved faster. Was thinking it would be an easy quick one. Sorry. Will act faster next time!
02:31 🔗 winr4r :/
02:32 🔗 mistym Also: "Thanks for all those who helped, too bad everything's gone". Kind of an asshole move.
02:39 🔗 winr4r "over the last decade or so"
02:39 🔗 winr4r i can't bitch, since i didn't save it :/
02:41 🔗 SketchCow Doing a 1.7 terabyte disk trasfer from batcave to FOS.
02:41 🔗 SketchCow This is the first step towards batcave's decomission.
02:41 🔗 SketchCow I still have to get 9tb off the second drive.
02:41 🔗 SketchCow A lot of that is mobileme, others are splinder.
02:41 🔗 SketchCow berlios.
02:41 🔗 Zod_ win4r: PDFs still seem up
02:43 🔗 winr4r Zod_: the value of that site, as i understand, was in the metadata
02:47 🔗 Coderjoe http://i.imgur.com/uOBLM.jpg
02:47 🔗 Zod_ win4r: how so?
02:48 🔗 Coderjoe warning: this state contains California, a substance known in the state of California to cause cancer.
02:50 🔗 mistym Zod_: It's a detailed subject-specific bibliography, cross-referenced by author, keywords, etc. Even if the articles came from elsewhere, the organization was valuable.
02:52 🔗 Zod_ thanks
02:54 🔗 mistym As it happens wayback seems to have most/all of the site though! Going to try to scrape the data from there.
02:54 🔗 Ymgve http://i.imgur.com/OKaA6.jpg
03:00 🔗 SketchCow http://www.zumodrive.com/ is closing down, June.
03:01 🔗 mistym That quote on the bottom of the screen.
03:01 🔗 mistym "ZumoDrive is a harbinger of the new world of cloud computing"
03:01 🔗 mistym Irony is off the CHARTS
03:02 🔗 winr4r haha
03:02 🔗 shaqfu Any way to smash-and-grab, or is it private storage?
03:02 🔗 SketchCow I wanted to have you guys give a quick look-see.
03:02 🔗 winr4r they were exactly right when they said it
03:02 🔗 SketchCow See if there's anything public-facing. Otherwise, we just list it on the wiki.
03:02 🔗 Coderjoe bahaha
03:03 🔗 Coderjoe (c)2012 Motorola Mobility
03:03 🔗 Coderjoe which now belongs to google, does it not?
03:04 🔗 winr4r SketchCow: looking through google search results, there doesn't appear to be anything public-facing other than the about/help/etc type pages
03:04 🔗 shaqfu Sometime in 2011, ZumoDrive seemed to stop working. Currently, it is not synching between computers.
03:04 🔗 shaqfu Oh dear
03:04 🔗 SketchCow Sounds about right.
03:05 🔗 Coderjoe not looking like there is anything public there
03:05 🔗 shaqfu Ah, looks like Moto bought it, then rolled the staff/tech into another Moto project
03:06 🔗 Coderjoe btw, blog: http://blog.zumodrive.com/
03:06 🔗 Coderjoe and apparently they were behind hp clouddrive
03:06 🔗 Coderjoe though hp.zumodrive.com is not loading for me
03:06 🔗 winr4r Coderjoe: same
05:07 🔗 Coderjoe ok, what of this stage6 metadata should I be pushing into the IA metadata property of simiar function? Right now (in my testing) I've been pushing it all into a table in the description.
05:07 🔗 Coderjoe i have video title, user/channel that uploaded it, upload date, description, tags, and the original stage6 url
06:45 🔗 SketchCow Back!
06:45 🔗 SketchCow Wow, what a network outage was it
06:51 🔗 chronomex wow, really?
06:51 🔗 chronomex I felt it over here in seattle too
06:52 🔗 chronomex well, I lost connectivity to a box across town
06:53 🔗 chronomex (a path which for some reason is routed seattle -> san jose -> seattle
06:53 🔗 SketchCow OK, just sent Jordan Mechner a nice big blog post on my LA visit.
06:54 🔗 SketchCow This whole politics with the Kryoflux needs to be dealt with today now, as well as a bunch of other stuff.
06:55 🔗 SketchCow All nighter fuck yeah
06:55 🔗 chronomex which coast are you on today?
06:56 🔗 SketchCow NY
06:57 🔗 SketchCow Next week Monday, it's LA for three days.
06:57 🔗 SketchCow I need to pull a favor from a follower
06:57 🔗 SketchCow And stay there, I can't reach my LA contact right now
07:01 🔗 SketchCow Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=LLQS27yQZYY
07:03 🔗 BlueMax Jesus
07:08 🔗 winr4r_ holy shit
07:11 🔗 dnova holy shit indeed
07:13 🔗 chronomex I wish the hot chick in the white tank top would stay in the frame
07:14 🔗 chronomex also I had to tell mplayer to change the a/v sync to make it look good
07:14 🔗 winr4r you're watching this with the sound off aren't you
07:14 🔗 chronomex no
07:14 🔗 chronomex I'm Annoying Internet Commenter
07:16 🔗 winr4r oh, gotcha
07:25 🔗 SketchCow http://www.pcworld.com/article/253672/the_archive_team_rescues_user_content_from_doomed_sites.html#tk.hp_new
07:26 🔗 ersi awesome
07:27 🔗 SketchCow Only three wrong facts!
07:27 🔗 SketchCow That I found.
07:27 🔗 ersi "Now scores of Pirate Bay users host the data." lol'd
07:28 🔗 ersi Heh, damn. 'The Resume' is starting to get quite long
07:28 🔗 winr4r we should collect the press you've gotten on the wiki somewhere
07:28 🔗 winr4r and by "we" i mean "i", and by $ i mean "if you think that's a good idea"
07:28 🔗 ersi it's a freggin wiki
07:28 🔗 ersi do it already if you like to
07:29 🔗 SketchCow http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lplptpmhFq1qdfypno1_500.jpg
07:29 🔗 SketchCow Archive Team meeting
07:30 🔗 ersi looks about right
07:30 🔗 chronomex must use big keyboards
07:39 🔗 SketchCow http://instarchive.recollect.com/
07:40 🔗 SketchCow I was just told about this.
07:40 🔗 dnova wait... instagram doesn't just save the images to your phone's storage?
07:41 🔗 chronomex how else would you share them on the internet?
07:41 🔗 chronomex it's not like your phone has a net connection!
07:41 🔗 dnova by uploading a copy...
07:43 🔗 dnova what a load of crap
07:43 🔗 SketchCow Man, Radiolab is insane.
07:43 🔗 SketchCow I see why people like it, it's like ADD This American life driving a car into Bill Nye's lab
07:44 🔗 chronomex with good production values too!
07:50 🔗 SketchCow Sent him correction.
07:52 🔗 SketchCow Wow, I hope people who downloaded my movie for free tell me how to have done the movie "right" for the rest of my life.
07:52 🔗 SketchCow Every week.
07:54 🔗 SketchCow Wow, Penny arcade's art quality has gone WAY WAY down
07:54 🔗 chronomex that's why you should read Zippy instead
07:56 🔗 SketchCow There's a slight, slight, slight pedantry of RadioLab that may ensure I don't actually keep listening.
07:57 🔗 SketchCow "So, it would rain." "Like, WITH WATER?" (water) "Yes, water!" "Like in a glass?" (glass full of water) "Yes! Water"
07:57 🔗 SketchCow If I want to encounter the world like I am literally insane, it may be a bit much
07:59 🔗 chronomex right, it's part of their schtick
08:05 🔗 SketchCow it gets really really old
08:05 🔗 dnova SketchCow: Microsoft Security Essentials is very low-impact and does fairly well in tests
08:05 🔗 dnova (and free)
08:05 🔗 SketchCow Do you seriously say this, knowing you just used the phrase "Microsoft Security" in the title?
08:06 🔗 BlueMax SketchCow, it's actually quite good
08:06 🔗 BlueMax Better than most of the free AVs
08:06 🔗 dnova yes. yes I do.
08:06 🔗 dnova I was shocked too.
08:06 🔗 SketchCow It will be a slow crawl before I work up to that, how about that.
08:07 🔗 SketchCow All you snuggly little pandas.
08:07 🔗 * SketchCow is packing and preparing for a week and a half away from home
08:08 🔗 chronomex but not away from internet and crabbiness!
08:09 🔗 SketchCow No, no.
08:09 🔗 chronomex a day without being crabby on the internet is like a day without internet.
08:09 🔗 SketchCow I hope dozens of people come in with late-form get lamp reviews.
08:09 🔗 SketchCow ha ha ha
08:09 🔗 SketchCow RANDOMLY
08:09 🔗 SketchCow Friend on Steam writes "microsoft security essentials, fuck everything else"
08:09 🔗 chronomex ignore with extreme prejudice
08:09 🔗 BlueMax If you want one right now I can give you o-add me on Steam now
08:10 🔗 dnova your friend on steam knows what's up
08:10 🔗 BlueMax SketchCow, add me http://steamcommunity.com/id/BlueMaxima :D
08:10 🔗 SketchCow No
08:10 🔗 BlueMax And seriously, MSE is really good
08:10 🔗 BlueMax Why not :(
08:10 🔗 SketchCow Fourteen guesses
08:11 🔗 Coderjoe hmm
08:11 🔗 BlueMax ...really don't have one
08:12 🔗 BlueMax But when you can put MSE on any computer with verified Windows and it's more lightweight than pretty much anything else
08:12 🔗 Coderjoe which is better, as far as the metadata on these stage6 items: http://archive.org/details/test-stage6-1891083 or http://archive.org/details/test-stage6-1891083-other
08:13 🔗 Coderjoe (note: derive is still running on the latter)
08:13 🔗 Coderjoe or some hybrid of the two?
08:14 🔗 Coderjoe the former loses the bit of metadata that it was a user vs a channel video
08:14 🔗 Coderjoe as well as calling the uploading user/channel the "producer"
08:17 🔗 SketchCow Oh boy, there went my start bar.
08:17 🔗 SketchCow And my tasks.
08:17 🔗 BlueMax What did you crash
08:17 🔗 Coderjoe explorer, duh
08:18 🔗 SketchCow Thank you, Microsoft Security Essentials. You sure help my security by making my machine unusable by viruses or anything else, including me.
08:21 🔗 BlueMax I've never had any problems with it, I wonder why you are
08:21 🔗 alard Any idea why this doesn't run? http://archive.org/catalog.php?history=1&identifier=archiveteam-mobileme-hero-650x
08:21 🔗 Coderjoe sounds like a forced windows restart at this point
08:22 🔗 Coderjoe alard: when the s3 script creates the bucket, is it providing a size hint?
08:23 🔗 alard Yes, an approximation.
08:23 🔗 Coderjoe just curious. almost wondering about it running out of space on the node
08:23 🔗 SketchCow Coderjoe: Regarding the metadata, you should make a table but also put in the data pairs in the s3 upload headers.
08:23 🔗 Coderjoe SketchCow: so both. alright.
08:23 🔗 SketchCow yeah
08:23 🔗 SketchCow It's amazing how good mo-cap has gotten.
08:24 🔗 SketchCow Watching these little anime chickaroonies dance.
08:25 🔗 winr4r hey, i get an error trying to create an account on the wiki
08:25 🔗 SketchCow yes
08:25 🔗 SketchCow I haven't added the plugin yet.
08:25 🔗 SketchCow I likely will this weekend, when I have more time.
08:25 🔗 winr4r oh okay
08:26 🔗 SketchCow PC World fixed the two facts wrong I found.
08:26 🔗 SketchCow 1000+ CD-ROMs, not 100
08:26 🔗 SketchCow I live north of NYC, not South
08:27 🔗 alard Ah, so now people know where to send more CD-ROMs, but they also know you have enough already? :)
08:27 🔗 SketchCow Well, no
08:27 🔗 winr4r that was quick
08:27 🔗 SketchCow I have so many coming in.
08:27 🔗 Schbirid hello!
08:27 🔗 SketchCow Next is where I am setting up a bank of CD-ROM drives and ingesting. That'll be when I am back here for any period of time.
08:28 🔗 winr4r hi Schbirid
08:28 🔗 Schbirid we should collect aol cds to build SketchCow a throne
08:28 🔗 Schbirid http://stupidco.com/aol_throne_finished.html
08:28 🔗 BlueMax Why build him a throne of crap
08:29 🔗 winr4r Schbirid: that's actually beautiful
08:33 🔗 Coderjoe SketchCow: should I bother putting the tags in the table, with the details page taking the subject metadata and making linkable keywords already?
08:35 🔗 SketchCow Yes
08:37 🔗 Coderjoe alright
08:39 🔗 SketchCow http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/550129_382871961744857_206067656091956_1221805_857169112_n.jpg
08:40 🔗 Coderjoe the interesting thing about that video, and several others like it, is that someone edited together video of the characters dancing to other songs
08:40 🔗 BlueMax also SketchCow if you really wanted that Get Lamp review it was informative and amazing to watch :P
08:40 🔗 Coderjoe from a game called IdolMaster
08:45 🔗 * S[h]O[r]T votes for MSE
08:45 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, it's installed.
08:46 🔗 Coderjoe "microsoft security" seems like an oxymoron to me
08:46 🔗 S[h]O[r]T also that orange my little pony totally looks like your pic on twitter
08:47 🔗 SketchCow Very 4:12 of you, Coderjoe
08:47 🔗 SketchCow 04:12 <@SketchCow> Do you seriously say this, knowing you just used the phrase "Microsoft Security" in the title?
08:47 🔗 godane SketchCow: did you get my email?
08:49 🔗 Coderjoe that was 4:05 here
08:49 🔗 chronomex your timezone is off by 7 minutes?
08:49 🔗 chronomex that's unusual
08:50 🔗 Coderjoe my clocks are synced by ntpd
08:50 🔗 chronomex as are mine. it appears that sketchcow is 7 minutes ahead of us.
08:51 🔗 Coderjoe woah. he's chatting to us FROM THE FUTURE!
08:51 🔗 winr4r fuck yeah time travel
08:52 🔗 winr4r if he comes out with something random he's just answering the question you're going to ask in 7 minutes
08:52 🔗 SketchCow 13 Apr 04:52:54 ntpdate[22299]: step time server 209.16.211.42 offset -412.291320 sec
08:52 🔗 SketchCow www# ntpdate ntp1.savvis.net
08:52 🔗 SketchCow Horp
08:52 🔗 SketchCow Now I'm with you assholes.
08:53 🔗 SketchCow Back here
08:53 🔗 Coderjoe so like this: http://archive.org/details/test-stage6-1891083-third
08:53 🔗 SketchCow I want to go back to the future and kill your grandfathers
08:53 🔗 SketchCow Not because it'll cause a paradox, I just want to kill your grandfathers.
08:53 🔗 winr4r *channel goes silent*
08:53 🔗 chronomex I realized recently that 4/20 is my half birthday
08:54 🔗 Coderjoe if all is fine with that, I'll start pushing the content into the opensource_movies collection with IDs of stage6-*
08:56 🔗 chronomex seems ok to me
08:57 🔗 SketchCow you're not adding it as metadata down there.
08:58 🔗 SketchCow originalurl:
08:58 🔗 SketchCow originalupload:
08:58 🔗 Coderjoe it's in the metadata
08:58 🔗 SketchCow You mean, the table?
08:59 🔗 SketchCow Wait, I found it.
08:59 🔗 Coderjoe it's in the table as well as a separate IA metadata tag, as original_url
08:59 🔗 SketchCow Sorry, it buried it in the eval screen
08:59 🔗 SketchCow Yes, you have my love and support - fill that shit up
09:00 🔗 SketchCow How many videos will this be?
09:02 🔗 Coderjoe 4990
09:03 🔗 SketchCow Excellent.
09:03 🔗 Coderjoe somehow, I have one video that has no record in my database, which shouldn't have been possible
09:03 🔗 Coderjoe about to pull the trigger...
09:04 🔗 SketchCow Do it
09:05 🔗 Coderjoe and away we go
09:05 🔗 SketchCow http://www.thelulz.info/var/albums/thanks-that-should-do-it.jpg?m=1331072353
09:06 🔗 SketchCow Do you have admin ability to put things into a collection?
09:06 🔗 SketchCow Or am I doing it?
09:06 🔗 Coderjoe haha
09:07 🔗 SketchCow I see, I'm doing it.
09:07 🔗 SketchCow Painless for me, by the way.
09:07 🔗 Coderjoe I don't have admin ability, so at the moment I have it uploading to x-archive-meta01-collection:opensource_movies
09:07 🔗 SketchCow I see that. trivial for me.
09:08 🔗 SketchCow Great first movie there
09:08 🔗 SketchCow How much space is this?
09:08 🔗 Coderjoe 284 GB
09:08 🔗 SketchCow pfft
09:08 🔗 SketchCow See you in an hour
09:09 🔗 Coderjoe oh
09:09 🔗 Coderjoe the one item?
09:10 🔗 SketchCow No, no.
09:10 🔗 Coderjoe 68M
09:10 🔗 SketchCow I just wanted an idea of what this was.
09:13 🔗 SketchCow Great first movie.
09:13 🔗 SketchCow http://archive.org/details/stage6-1205977&reCache=1
09:13 🔗 SketchCow looking good so far
09:21 🔗 SketchCow Oh look, here's me "forgetting" to fill out the W9 form a library sent me
09:22 🔗 SketchCow http://archive.org/details/stage6-1205977
09:22 🔗 SketchCow That really is just a hilarious first film.
09:27 🔗 SketchCow it's done! ding! fries done!
09:27 🔗 SketchCow http://archive.org/details/stage6-1205977
09:29 🔗 Coderjoe haha
09:30 🔗 Coderjoe and the sync goes off for me :(
09:56 🔗 Coderjoe haha
09:56 🔗 Coderjoe http://archive.org/details/stage6-1284205
09:57 🔗 Coderjoe pretty sure this was originally downloaded from IA
10:01 🔗 Coderjoe well, I should probably get some sleep
10:13 🔗 winr4r don't be a wimp
10:19 🔗 aggro Yeah. Do what the folks in London are prepping for: http://it.slashdot.org/story/12/04/12/1331243/data-center-staff-will-sleep-among-the-racks-for-london-olympics
10:20 🔗 chronomex sleep? WRONG ANSWER.
10:22 🔗 winr4r they'd better get some serious overtime for that
10:27 🔗 BlueMax You'd bloody hope so
10:50 🔗 DoubleJ Running wget --mirror (at least 127570 files)...
10:50 🔗 DoubleJ ...this may take a while
11:08 🔗 dnova http://i.imgur.com/Smpka.jpg
11:08 🔗 dnova archive team gets an upgrade
11:19 🔗 BlueMax Sun microsystems...oh god
12:14 🔗 godane SketchCow: some good news
12:14 🔗 godane looks like linuxformat.com is hosting there dvd thur bittorrent
12:18 🔗 godane only 121 to 157 have bittorrent isos
12:19 🔗 godane some may not have seeds anymore
12:19 🔗 godane 121 doesn't have any
12:19 🔗 godane the latest one has 2 seeds
12:20 🔗 godane i hope this helps
14:15 🔗 DFJustin http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/6415/125/
14:20 🔗 mistym Wow. Copyright on *postal codes*
14:21 🔗 ragechin lolwat?
14:31 🔗 aggro I've moved from huh to lolwut to WHAT THE GOD DAMN FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?!?!?
14:31 🔗 aggro In other news, aggro thinks copyright is fubar'd.
14:39 🔗 winr4r oh, the UK postcode database?
14:39 🔗 yipdw Canada
14:39 🔗 yipdw also, I think copyright itself is fine
14:39 🔗 winr4r ah
14:39 🔗 yipdw people just need to be shot
14:40 🔗 winr4r yipdw: yes
14:40 🔗 yipdw and continue to be shot until they stop being so fucking stupid
14:40 🔗 yipdw make a frivolous copyright claim, get shot
14:40 🔗 yipdw I think that'd work
14:40 🔗 winr4r i think US copyright law is the least broken, save for the ridiculous statutory infringement penalties
14:41 🔗 winr4r because of the broadness of fair use
14:42 🔗 winr4r fair dealing over here, isn't nearly as broad, and of course the big copyright holders are dipshits so they're all for refusing me permission to use 3x3-square scan of a map from 1976
14:42 🔗 winr4r fuuuuck those guys
14:43 🔗 mistym US fair use is reasonable, but copyright length is definitely too long.
14:43 🔗 winr4r it is everywhere imo
14:43 🔗 yipdw I see the current copyright madness as an outgrowth of the "NO IT'S MY TOY" attitude that we all had when we were three
14:43 🔗 yipdw when we acted like that, our parents spanked us
14:44 🔗 yipdw now that everyone is grown up I think the same STFU reaction applies
14:44 🔗 yipdw but we need to scale up the penalty for the concomitant increase in, uh, damage
14:44 🔗 winr4r i don't see how it's broken at all
14:44 🔗 yipdw I mean the people involved in it
14:44 🔗 yipdw you can't paddle a law
14:45 🔗 winr4r as i see it, it's their shit, just like it is actually that kid's toy
14:45 🔗 yipdw I'm not sure if I'm making any sense because I've been up for way too long
14:45 🔗 yipdw and if I'm not feel free to ignore me
14:45 🔗 mistym winr4r: Well, it's pretty significantly different in othe rpaces though. Life+50 years in Canada is a far cry from creation+120 (worst case scenario).
14:45 🔗 winr4r but please do not be a dumbass about it
14:45 🔗 winr4r mistym: yes, that's true
14:50 🔗 aggro For me, I don't agree with the notion that you can claim an idea as "yours" at all. Yes, yes, I know you can't copyright or patent ideas themselves, just their "expression." But as far as I'm concerned there's little to no practical difference. Ideas build upon each-other and the notion that someone can lock up mental building blocks is ludicrous to me. Though I guess that's gravitating closer to patent law and all of its absurdities in
14:53 🔗 winr4r i don't agree with that, or at least that it's applicable to copyright law
14:53 🔗 winr4r patent law on the other hand actually is pretty absurd, but that's a whole 'nother pot of pike
