00:12 🔗 SketchCow LOVE THAT
00:58 🔗 SketchCow 382MB 0:00:07 [54.7MB/s] [> ] 0% ETA 0:59:50
00:59 🔗 SketchCow db48x2: Good call, like.
01:02 🔗 chronomex super useful.
01:02 🔗 chronomex it's got a --lines mode for when you're more interested in how many lines of text have been processed
01:05 🔗 SketchCow 23.2GB 0:07:18 [64.7MB/s] [======> ] 12% ETA 0:52:54
01:06 🔗 SketchCow Well, it's going along nicely. This is a listing out of a 192gb tar file.
01:06 🔗 SketchCow So hey
01:17 🔗 SketchCow 59.7GB 0:18:39 [51.2MB/s] [=================> ] 31% ETA 0:41:15
01:17 🔗 SketchCow Wow, this is actually humane.
01:17 🔗 SketchCow I'm also using virtualdub to filter, resize, and compress an .AVI file.
01:17 🔗 SketchCow Which should speed things up nicely.
02:11 🔗 SketchCow http://www.archive.org/details/twaudio-collection-2011
02:11 🔗 SketchCow Well whey hey.
02:11 🔗 SketchCow This full dataset represents roughly 76,000 mp3s from 14,947 users and related metadata from publicly-available postings on twaud.io across its 3 years of operation.
02:19 🔗 db48xOthe SketchCow: glad to help
02:21 🔗 db48xOthe 45.7GB 13:37:48 [ 598kB/s]
02:21 🔗 db48xOthe [db48x@celebdil Friendster]$ tar cf - --numeric-owner --totals data.013800000-013899999 | pv_ind | bzip2 -9c > /backups/bff/friendster.013800000-013899999.tar.bz2
02:21 🔗 db48xOthe mine is a little more sad
02:21 🔗 chronomex 13:37, make a wish
02:21 🔗 db48xOthe heh, that is lucky
02:22 🔗 db48xOthe I wish my filesystem access times would be fast again :P
02:23 🔗 SketchCow Hurrah, about to slam 400gb off the server
02:23 🔗 SketchCow Now that archive.org has it
02:23 🔗 db48xOthe twaudio?
02:26 🔗 chronomex http://twaud.io/
02:27 🔗 db48xOthe yes
02:27 🔗 db48xOthe I wasn't very clear
02:27 🔗 db48xOthe I was guessing that the twaudio data was one half of what he was deleting from his server
02:29 🔗 chronomex oh oops
02:33 🔗 Wyatt Interesting. Is there a way to specify the sector bounds for mount? I have one of those old games with a data track and red book audio, and I was hoping to try it in Wine.
02:34 🔗 SketchCow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_PTA90PQuo
02:35 🔗 Wyatt !!!!
02:38 🔗 db48xOthe sweet
02:39 🔗 db48xOthe nice effect on the 'begins filming' message
02:43 🔗 db48xOthe is that the back area of Musee Mechanique?
02:44 🔗 perfinion http://millenniata.com/m-disc/ << anyone know more about that?
02:44 🔗 perfinion the article i read sounds promising
02:44 🔗 perfinion but like, does it actually do what it claims?
02:45 🔗 Coderjoe wyatt, if you are loop mounting, losetup has parameters that can help
02:47 🔗 Wyatt Coderjoe: Oh yeah, I guess I could dd myself an image of it....
02:48 🔗 Wyatt or can you use loop mounting with a physical disk? I've never actually tried, but I guess it makes sense.
02:48 🔗 db48xOthe perfinion: that'd be cool
02:49 🔗 Coderjoe i don't see a reason you can't loop mount a block device. another possibility is device mapper
02:49 🔗 perfinion db48xOthe: $7/disc it looks like. but for the most important subset of my data that'd be okay
02:49 🔗 Coderjoe i have not tried to loop mount a block device
02:49 🔗 db48xOthe perfinion: it probably does work, although a good question would be what happens to the vaporized aluminum (if that's what the data layer is made of)
02:49 🔗 db48xOthe perfinion: plus the cost of the drive
02:50 🔗 db48xOthe which they don't mention
02:50 🔗 perfinion yeah cost of drive is a one time cost tho, and you can share a drive among many ppl
02:50 🔗 db48xOthe quite true
02:51 🔗 db48xOthe but yea, it looks like it would have a similar life as a pressed disc, where the data is on an aluminum foil that UV can't touch
02:52 🔗 Wyatt Huh, interesting. I wonder when it's coming out?
02:52 🔗 perfinion it says end sept
02:52 🔗 perfinion so soon
02:53 🔗 perfinion the issue with stamped disks is the plastic laminate separates after a while
02:53 🔗 db48xOthe yea
02:53 🔗 perfinion this is basically a stamped disk but with better quality materials
02:53 🔗 perfinion its really low density tho
02:54 🔗 perfinion i wonder how scratch resistant it is tho
02:54 🔗 perfinion i usually lose disks to scratches before teh plastic separates
03:12 🔗 * db48xOthe starves
03:12 🔗 db48xOthe require comestibles
03:56 🔗 Wyatt Coderjoe: After multiple distractions, mount -o user,loop /dev/sr0 /mnt/temp/ worked without complaint. Thanks for pointing out losetup though. I expect it'll come in handy sooner or later.
04:11 🔗 Coderjoe mount with -o loop actually does the losetup syscalls internally, and does the losetup -d on unmount
04:28 🔗 SketchCow So, Conga Rats to VirtualDub for letting me SELECT MP3 compression, but when it goes, it drops back to PCM
04:28 🔗 SketchCow You know, because I don't have the codec in the form it wants.
04:28 🔗 SketchCow So I spent 2 hours rendering a file
04:28 🔗 SketchCow Where the video is, like, 180mb, and the audio is 975mb
04:43 🔗 SketchCow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_PTA90PQuo is worth seeing.
05:20 🔗 db48xOthe SketchCow: lol
05:20 🔗 db48xOthe SketchCow: out of curiosity though, why mp3?
05:20 🔗 SketchCow For the audio?
05:20 🔗 db48xOthe yea
05:20 🔗 SketchCow Requirements of the system that I am rendering these for.
05:20 🔗 SketchCow This is a job
05:20 🔗 db48xOthe ah
05:21 🔗 SketchCow These are GDC videos
05:21 🔗 SketchCow I'm digitizing BetaCam SP and then making them .flvs
05:21 🔗 SketchCow And .mp4s
05:21 🔗 db48xOthe cool
05:21 🔗 SketchCow I write blog entries about them.
05:22 🔗 db48xOthe I've seen mention of them
05:25 🔗 SketchCow http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/36449/Tales_From_The_GDC_Vault_That_Big_Moment.php
05:44 🔗 db48xOthe neat
05:44 🔗 db48xOthe I guess I'd have to enable flash though
05:46 🔗 * db48xOthe watches a Nero Wolfe instead
06:36 🔗 undersco2 Mentioning SketchCow when you meet someone new can be both a blessing and a curse
06:37 🔗 undersco2 Critically, whether he's pissed them off somehow in the past is rather important
06:37 🔗 db48xOthe heh
06:43 🔗 SketchCow hahaha
06:43 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, I should have said that here, not the skype.
06:43 🔗 SketchCow Doctorow can seriously blow me.
06:43 🔗 SketchCow It's kind of like me with the films. People like the films, they may or may not like me or my opinions.
06:44 🔗 SketchCow The films are sacred, I don't use them as platforms for my personality.
06:47 🔗 undersco2 What happened with Cory?
06:47 🔗 SketchCow He's a toolbag and we don't get along
06:48 🔗 undersco2 I'm sure he says the same about you, hahaha
06:48 🔗 undersco2 God fucking damn Macs
06:48 🔗 undersco2 Now I'm hitting alt-t on my windows machine
06:49 🔗 undersco2 WHY CAN'T YOU JUST USE CONTROL LIKE EVERYONE ELSE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
06:49 🔗 undersco2 </rant>
06:51 🔗 SketchCow You're not still at the archive, are you
06:52 🔗 undersco2 No
06:52 🔗 SketchCow Whew
06:52 🔗 undersco2 Although I did stay this late last night :V
06:52 🔗 * undersco2 hides from SketchCow
06:54 🔗 Coderjoe undersco2: any luck with that range I asked you about?
06:54 🔗 undersco2 I won't know until Saturday night at the earliest
06:54 🔗 Coderjoe oh
06:55 🔗 undersco2 (still in SF til then, sorry)
06:56 🔗 SketchCow http://gawker.com/5832033/watch-anderson-cooper-lose-it-on-live-tv
06:57 🔗 undersco2 Oh, I got to see the offices of ImageShack and yfrog with SketchCow saturday
06:57 🔗 undersco2 That was fun
06:58 🔗 db48xOthe who is Anderson Cooper, and how does he lose it?
06:58 🔗 SketchCow CNN correspondent.
06:59 🔗 undersco2 I've always thought of him as incredibly serious
06:59 🔗 undersco2 This si great
06:59 🔗 undersco2 is*
07:00 🔗 SketchCow He's also a heir of the Vanderbilt fortune.
07:00 🔗 SketchCow (He's a Vanderbilt)
07:00 🔗 undersco2 Oh wow
07:02 🔗 SketchCow Well, I should be more accurate.
07:02 🔗 SketchCow He's definitely a vanderbilt, but the vanderbilt fortune has been wrung clean some time ago.
07:03 🔗 SketchCow I always get confused by that, because as a child I would tour the Vanderbilt Mansion. http://www.nps.gov/vama/index.htm
07:22 🔗 * db48xOthe yawns
07:22 🔗 db48xOthe I ought to be asleep
07:23 🔗 undersco2 Me too

07:23 🔗 undersco2 I hate that Jeff goes in early
07:23 🔗 undersco2 haha
07:23 🔗 db48xOthe edging closer to a ter
07:25 🔗 db48xOthe undersco2: what's the largest item in the IA archive?
07:25 🔗 undersco2 tbh, I have no idea
07:25 🔗 SketchCow I think I just uploaded it.
07:25 🔗 undersco2 That info isn't stored in the DB
07:26 🔗 db48xOthe I suspected as much
07:26 🔗 SketchCow They didn't like items being 10gb+ until recent
07:26 🔗 SketchCow Prelinger added a 114g
07:26 🔗 SketchCow I just added a 192g
07:26 🔗 db48xOthe since you can't sort by size
07:26 🔗 db48xOthe someone needs to work on the search form
07:29 🔗 db48xOthe oh, and why is there a custom field called "aaaaa" that you can search on?
07:31 🔗 undersco2 To make you ask questions
07:31 🔗 undersco2 ;D
07:33 🔗 undersco2 Hey, someone willing to test this real quick for me?
07:33 🔗 undersco2 http://teamarchive-0.us.archive.org:8888/ThisIsPr2001/ogv
07:34 🔗 undersco2 (it's a torrent)
08:17 🔗 db48xOthe sure
08:18 🔗 db48xOthe ah, I like the host name of the seed I'm connected to
08:19 🔗 db48xOthe done
08:19 🔗 ersi what's the host name? ;P
08:19 🔗 db48xOthe 1.0 to 1.2Mb/s ish
08:19 🔗 alard undersco2: It's asking the tracker for peers.
08:20 🔗 undersco2 alard: okay
08:20 🔗 undersco2 I realized the web seed url may not work in some clients
08:20 🔗 alard Transmission 2.13 (11501), if that helps.
08:20 🔗 undersco2 (because of how it's formatted)
08:20 🔗 undersco2 thanks :)
08:20 🔗 db48xOthe ALUMINUM ON THE MARCH
08:20 🔗 db48xOthe awesome
08:20 🔗 undersco2 hahah

08:21 🔗 undersco2 haha
08:22 🔗 ersi got a ragefest in a demo-channel
08:23 🔗 Coderjoe your webseed url on that has a double-slash in the middle, btw
08:25 🔗 Coderjoe that ine worked well
08:25 🔗 Coderjoe any idea yet what caused the batch torrents last night to fall over?
08:30 🔗 undersco2 Pretty sure it's the gzipped responses
08:30 🔗 undersco2 Also, webseeds have a very difficult time with the first and last pieces
08:37 🔗 db48xOthe ersi: sorry, the hostname was teamarchive-0.us.archive.org :)
08:38 🔗 ersi ah, heh
08:46 🔗 * db48xOthe sleeps

10:12 🔗 PepsiMax I'd tell you a UDP joke, but you probably wouldn't get it.
10:25 🔗 Wyatt Hey, UDP's not THAT bad. It works for Quake!
11:35 🔗 jch undersco2: it wsa on sweclockers, i think
11:35 🔗 jch undersco2: www.sweclockers.com/nyhet/14373-kopieringsavgift-pa-externa-harddiskar-och-usb-minnen-infors-den-1-september
11:35 🔗 jch ersi: tagging our bus != cool
12:19 🔗 ersi jch: fuckin' funny story though
12:20 🔗 ersi If you're gonna blame someone, blame the douches that said it was OK (95% of the people there)
12:20 🔗 ersi ;p
12:22 🔗 jch how is it funny?
12:23 🔗 jch i shouldn't blame the idiot tagging juts because some nobodies said it was kosher?
12:23 🔗 Ymgve so if you pay that tax on your storage media, is it an implicit approval of piracy?
12:24 🔗 jch Heh, that's the paradox
12:24 🔗 jch It's still not legal but to make up for the "huge losses" they impose this kind of taxation
12:40 🔗 ersi jch: carebear
16:56 🔗 underscor Ymgve: Well, if they're making me pay it regardless, then fuck them
16:56 🔗 * underscor downloads downloads downloads
16:59 🔗 SketchCow 114g (actually 116g) Prelinger item: http://www.archive.org/details/ATripDownMarketStreet_HD
17:16 🔗 Nemo_bis This file was made by SpyPost in San Francisco in fall 2010 from a new 35mm print made from a new duplicate negative made by Film Technology Company from a vintage print from the Prelinger Archives collection.
17:16 🔗 Nemo_bis :-O
17:38 🔗 SketchCow Yes
17:38 🔗 SketchCow Scanning machine's at the archive, looks great

21:26 🔗 SketchCow Boys, boys
21:26 🔗 SketchCow Relax or I'll spank you
21:27 🔗 alard I think they're bored. :)
21:31 🔗 alard SketchCow: Nice work with the Twaud.io item. However ... there's still a bit more. marceloan has uploaded his files to me via Dropbox (took him a few days). I'm rsyncing them to blindtiger right now, do you see a chance to add those to the item? (It's 511MB.)
21:32 🔗 SketchCow I'll add them, yes.
21:33 🔗 alard Great. The rsync should be finished in about 15 minutes. (But there's no hurry, of course.)
21:34 🔗 SketchCow From now on, I need to give you a new place. Blindtiger is supposed to be empty by now.
21:36 🔗 alard Yes, sure, you said that before. Sorry.
23:34 🔗 SketchCow I worked up a sweat!
23:34 🔗 SketchCow First time in a long time.
23:35 🔗 SketchCow Still need to do stuff for that area back there, but lots of work done.
23:53 🔗 db48x2 SketchCow: sounds like a good shelf
23:53 🔗 db48x2 SketchCow: what kind is it?
