06:32 πŸ”— SketchCow Can someone help me?
06:33 πŸ”— SketchCow Someone is helping me, thanks
06:36 πŸ”— BlueMax can't even imagine...
07:08 πŸ”— SketchCow http://zeppelin.xrtc.net/corp.xrtc.net/shilling.corp.xrtc.net/warriors.html
07:08 πŸ”— SketchCow Once people figured out Hyves was important, oh man
07:17 πŸ”— xmc yeahhhhh
09:14 πŸ”— joepie91 this probably needs looking at: http://boingboing.net/2013/11/21/germany-threatens-to-jail-carl.html
11:53 πŸ”— SketchCow Met Malamud my past visit in California.
11:53 πŸ”— SketchCow All his stuff is hosted at internet archive.
11:53 πŸ”— SketchCow Hey, joepie91 - you got your info packet!
11:54 πŸ”— SketchCow I'm sorry they only allow one day of attendance
11:54 πŸ”— joepie91 oh right, I should still read that
11:54 πŸ”— joepie91 noticed the e-mail, but been too busy all day
11:54 πŸ”— joepie91 to actually read it yet
11:54 πŸ”— joepie91 :P
11:54 πŸ”— SketchCow It basically says "come to the hall on tuesday, talk is X, it consists of Y, we will film you"
11:54 πŸ”— SketchCow And blog you
12:03 πŸ”— joepie91 pretty much
12:30 πŸ”— SketchCow JSMESS is now updated on jsmess.textfiles.com and has working sound.
17:10 πŸ”— Muad-Dib_ http://forums.winamp.com/ 2.7 million posts, is this on the radar of you guys yet? (it probably is)
17:15 πŸ”— balrog Muad-Dib_: yep
17:15 πŸ”— ersi It's being grabbed, yes.
17:15 πŸ”— Muad-Dib_ it´s pretty big, and old
17:15 πŸ”— Muad-Dib_ by whom, is it going to be a warrior project?
17:17 πŸ”— BiggieJon archivebot grabbed it, not sure if it's complete yet
17:18 πŸ”— BiggieJon #archivebot
17:19 πŸ”— DFJustin archivebot grabbed some of it but we had to stop because it's too big, godane is breaking it down
17:35 πŸ”— VonGuard ok
17:35 πŸ”— VonGuard i need help finding some software
17:35 πŸ”— VonGuard software must be older than 1997
17:35 πŸ”— VonGuard and must allow one to sign into a server of somekind, download libraries and run them locally
17:37 πŸ”— ersi This isn't #computerhelp
17:38 πŸ”— antomatic That said - depends what you mean by 'libraries'
17:38 πŸ”— antomatic (I'm guessing you're trying to find prior art to rebut a patent?)
17:40 πŸ”— VonGuard yep antomatic
17:41 πŸ”— VonGuard ersi that's why i'm here, i don't need tech support, i need 30 year old software
17:41 πŸ”— antomatic I think Sketchcow has assisted with things like this in the past
17:41 πŸ”— VonGuard i was thinking the atari 2600 qualified with that modem service that turned into AOL
17:41 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah again, that's why i am here
17:41 πŸ”— VonGuard sketchcow is great, but i know he's busy so i'm bothering his minions
17:42 πŸ”— antomatic There have certainly existed online libraries of downloadable software - which would then be run locally.
17:42 πŸ”— antomatic Services such as Prestel and Micronet and the 'Telesoftware' service, perhaps.
17:44 πŸ”— antomatic Ditto Compunet (C64) and similar
17:44 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah but this is talkingh about libraries as in collections of code
17:44 πŸ”— VonGuard the development "libraries"
17:44 πŸ”— VonGuard so i was thinking Smalltalk, because it was dynamic, could download stuff like that and run it without changing the program
17:45 πŸ”— davemenni CPAN?
17:45 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmmm
17:45 πŸ”— VonGuard oooooooo
17:45 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmmm
17:45 πŸ”— VonGuard but did cpan exist prior to 1997?
17:46 πŸ”— davemenni wikipedia says "CPAN was conceived in 1993, and the first web-accessible mirror was launched in January 1997."
17:46 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmmm
17:46 πŸ”— VonGuard that's cutting it close
17:46 πŸ”— VonGuard but great idea
17:47 πŸ”— davemenni wikipdiea's source shows a "private showing" of CPAN existed in 1995
17:47 πŸ”— davemenni http://history.perl.org/PerlTimeline.html
17:49 πŸ”— DFJustin for patent-busting purposes it has to be published to the public, not just exist
17:49 πŸ”— balrog is there an archive of the packrats list somewhere?
17:50 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmm
17:52 πŸ”— VonGuard CPAN does nto count
17:52 πŸ”— VonGuard you donwloaded it to your machine
17:52 πŸ”— VonGuard it was not a server-admined thing
17:52 πŸ”— balrog didn't CPAN download packets from remote?
17:52 πŸ”— balrog packages rather
17:52 πŸ”— VonGuard nope
17:52 πŸ”— VonGuard not according to one of its architects
17:52 πŸ”— balrog I'm trying to find http://gopher.metronet.com:70/R22792-29241-1m/perlinfo/packrats/mailing-list/93
17:53 πŸ”— balrog blah, on wayback but machine down
17:53 πŸ”— VonGuard thanks balrog
17:54 πŸ”— DFJustin hmm not quite old enough http://web.archive.org/web/19971017151020/http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/zip-picker.html
17:57 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmm
17:57 πŸ”— VonGuard SysV AT&T unix had a packaging system
17:57 πŸ”— VonGuard SysV
17:58 πŸ”— VonGuard GOT IT
17:58 πŸ”— VonGuard SD Hpux
17:59 πŸ”— VonGuard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Distributor
17:59 πŸ”— ersi VonGuard: Would the regular linux distributions count? There's libraries shipped in packages.
17:59 πŸ”— ersi linux distribution repositories*
17:59 πŸ”— ersi Ah, cool
18:00 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah but they're too late
18:00 πŸ”— VonGuard must be prior to 1997
18:00 πŸ”— VonGuard so debian doesn't county
18:00 πŸ”— ersi aw
18:00 πŸ”— VonGuard i know right?
18:00 πŸ”— VonGuard i was all ready to call Ian
18:00 πŸ”— VonGuard you know deb and Ian are divorced?
18:00 πŸ”— ersi yeah :(
18:01 πŸ”— VonGuard apt-get remove ring
18:02 πŸ”— DFJustin I'm looking at http://web.archive.org/web/19961226234325/http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/rhl/manual/ but the stuff about rpm and glint doesn't say anything about connecting to the internet, just local packages
18:03 πŸ”— DFJustin SD sounds like a winner though
18:03 πŸ”— balrog netbsd pkgsrc is from 1997...
18:04 πŸ”— balrog oh wait
18:04 πŸ”— balrog freebsd ports maybe?
18:04 πŸ”— VonGuard too late
18:04 πŸ”— VonGuard must be before 1997
18:04 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah ti doesnt even have to use the internet
18:04 πŸ”— VonGuard just a LAN
18:05 πŸ”— VonGuard which means SD works
18:05 πŸ”— balrog freebsd ports is supposed to be from 1995
18:05 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmm really?
18:05 πŸ”— VonGuard pkgsrc?
18:05 πŸ”— balrog no
18:05 πŸ”— balrog http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeBSD_ports#
18:06 πŸ”— VonGuard fuck yeah
18:06 πŸ”— VonGuard nice find, we can actualyl demonstrate that
18:06 πŸ”— VonGuard the HP-UX wouldnt be easy to setup
18:06 πŸ”— balrog I have an hp-ux machine
18:06 πŸ”— balrog actually three of them
18:06 πŸ”— balrog a pizza box and two logic analyzers
18:06 πŸ”— VonGuard lol
18:06 πŸ”— VonGuard you wanna install a 20 year old OS and setup a LAN between two with one cting as a package server?
18:06 πŸ”— balrog running that old version of HP-UX though? fun
18:07 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah like HP-UX isnt hard enough
18:07 πŸ”— xmc haha
18:07 πŸ”— balrog let's see when they added network
18:08 πŸ”— balrog hmm, sup repositories...
18:08 πŸ”— balrog it seems ports was designed to work with sup?
18:08 πŸ”— VonGuard hmmmm
18:09 πŸ”— balrog does the same executable have to handle downloading?
18:13 πŸ”— VonGuard ooooooooo
18:13 πŸ”— balrog VonGuard: r500 has support for fetching
18:13 πŸ”— balrog http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/Mk/bsd.port.mk?view=markup&pathrev=501
18:13 πŸ”— balrog r501 rather
18:13 πŸ”— VonGuard r500?
18:13 πŸ”— balrog I'm digging over svn
18:14 πŸ”— VonGuard also, actual date is July 1997, so first half of 1997 works
18:14 πŸ”— balrog see lines 420
18:14 πŸ”— balrog and on
18:15 πŸ”— DFJustin I think there's a 1 year grace period for patent stuff so 1995-6 would be better
18:15 πŸ”— balrog the 1 year grace period is only for disclosures by the patentee right?
18:16 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah
18:16 πŸ”— DFJustin anyway this is source code from 1994
18:16 πŸ”— balrog yeah
18:16 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah this is great stuff
18:16 πŸ”— VonGuard thanks guys
18:16 πŸ”— balrog np :)
18:22 πŸ”— VonGuard well, i think the bsd stuff is clear
18:22 πŸ”— VonGuard scratch one patent, boys
18:22 πŸ”— VonGuard good work
18:22 πŸ”— VonGuard i like borrowing SketchCow's army
18:22 πŸ”— VonGuard now, we need to build a TOSEC for MagicCap and General Magic
18:23 πŸ”— underscor <DFJustin> anyway this is source code from 1994 <-- Weird to think someone was writing that code while I was getting splorted out
18:24 πŸ”— turnip underscor: *shudder*
18:24 πŸ”— underscor hahaha
18:25 πŸ”— DFJustin damn kids
18:25 πŸ”— turnip Younger than Jurassic Park, how is that even legal
18:27 πŸ”— yipdw VonGuard: as another possibility, Squeak existed in 1996
18:30 πŸ”— balrog VonGuard: why does the USPTO allow such patents to even stand? they should fall under "obvious to an expert in the field"
18:30 πŸ”— VonGuard yeha i was thinking of smalltalk yipdw
18:30 πŸ”— VonGuard did squeak have a package or content management system?
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard i know it's dynamic so shit can just run
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard balrog, because the USPTO employs no software developers
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard only crackpots who think they're the next Einstein
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard cranking away on Fermat's last on lunch breaks
18:31 πŸ”— yipdw VonGuard: ooh, not sure if one existed in it < 1997
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard approving everything they dont understand
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard yeah i dont think squeak had all that in 97
18:31 πŸ”— VonGuard but i'll check
18:32 πŸ”— VonGuard lemme email dan or alan
18:32 πŸ”— yipdw balrog: because we in the US like to fuck ourselves for short-term gains
18:32 πŸ”— yipdw Americans, you see
18:32 πŸ”— underscor turnip: hahahaha
18:32 πŸ”— underscor I'm not legal, yet!
18:33 πŸ”— underscor Well, I mean, age of majority, but you're not really fully legal until like 25
18:33 πŸ”— turnip Renting a car is the last hurdle
18:33 πŸ”— balrog this chat really should be in -bs..
18:33 πŸ”— underscor (21 for gambling/alcohol, 25 for vehicle rental)
18:33 πŸ”— turnip I can't do that yet
18:33 πŸ”— underscor balrog: aye, sorry
18:33 πŸ”— yipdw <xmc> woop woop woop off-topic siren
18:33 πŸ”— underscor haha
18:34 πŸ”— VonGuard yipdw, that's the long and short of it!~
18:34 πŸ”— VonGuard pun intended
19:29 πŸ”— n00b872 hey guys, you probably already know (i saw it added to the dying page) but winamp's dying
19:29 πŸ”— n00b872 all those plugins and skins D:
19:31 πŸ”— xmc yuuuup
19:33 πŸ”— n00b872 as far as usability goes... on the other hand, this means certain plugin developers can release a "final" version of this and that plugin so i don't have to use an older version of winamp for everything i use to be compatible
19:33 πŸ”— n00b872 but no i don't have any idea how to do this archiving thing and am a total scumbag :(
19:34 πŸ”— yipdw n00b872: yeah, we're downloading a bunch of Winamp stuff
19:34 πŸ”— yipdw forums.winamp.com is being handled by godane
19:34 πŸ”— yipdw ArchiveBot got (most of) the rest
19:35 πŸ”— n00b872 whoo, you guys are the best, thanks
19:35 πŸ”— n00b872 just the other week i was reading about a super obscure plugin that was removed from the winamp repository for some reason... someone uploaded it elsewhere
19:36 πŸ”— n00b872 oh right re: usability: xmplay is still updated, right? guess plugin devs could just move to that
19:36 πŸ”— n00b872 lol there are already multiple threads on the xmplay forums about it
19:36 πŸ”— n00b872 but yes thank you guys you are gods
19:37 πŸ”— yipdw nah, we're just a bunch of jerks led by the big jerk who now works at Internet Archive
19:39 πŸ”— ersi shutup you jerk
19:39 πŸ”— ersi mwahah
20:00 πŸ”— Nemo_bis 281 names contributing to hyves, that's a lot
20:16 πŸ”— VonGuard careful saving winamp plugins and skins
20:16 πŸ”— VonGuard some have virii
20:16 πŸ”— VonGuard seen it a couple times
20:16 πŸ”— VonGuard old virii but still
23:40 πŸ”— S[h]O[r]T http://blog.turntable.fm/post/67777306411/turntable-live-turntable-fm, dont think there is anything public to archive. they are providing csv export for playlists and i dont think that feature is going to dissapear but no idea for sure
23:40 πŸ”— S[h]O[r]T Turntable.fm to shut down its social DJ service in favor of live concert efforts
23:45 πŸ”— godane S[h]O[r]T: archive bot is going after the blog
23:46 πŸ”— S[h]O[r]T awesome
