[01:07] checked out pdf.textfiles.com [01:08] looks like you could fit it on to a dvd [01:08] :-D [02:24] ShetchCow: i think i'm starting to become like you [02:25] i'm backing up tech news tonight to archive.org so that there will be some video of it [02:25] even if its 640x368 at 256kb versions of it [02:27] i'm also adding show topics on wiki.twit.tv for tech news tonight into show segment part of the page [02:31] Congratulations. You are now well on your way to becoming a compulsive archivist. [02:32] i'm surprise the there is a full year+ of glenn beck on archive.org [02:34] i wonder if i get in trouble if i upload 6 months worth of the screen savers? [02:34] only 1 episode on archive.org: http://www.archive.org/details/zdtv_thescreensavers_01_10_2000 [02:35] why would you get in trouble? [02:35] i was thinking copyright [02:35] videos are still getting dmca on youtube for the screen savers [02:37] don't worry about it [02:37] ok [02:38] i may also download some of the episodes on youtube [02:38] i think march 22 - may 25 are needed [02:39] any there are some segment shows too that i don't have [02:39] *full episode segment shows [02:40] * yotta looks at the topic [02:41] anyone want to mail me a drive with the geocities archive on it? [02:45] (i'll pay for or provide a hard drive) [02:46] geocities will take a long time for me to download [02:46] so i can't do it [02:46] I could download it [02:47] hm [02:47] any idea how fast the seeds on the torrent are? [02:47] not sure [02:47] yahoo in can is awesome [02:47] :-D [02:48] *yoohoo i mean [02:50] I have like 9TB of unused disk space and it needs filling :p [02:52] i thought geocites only took 1tb [02:52] yeah, the torrent is ~641gb [03:08] Huzzzzah [03:08] hey SketchCow [03:08] Had a great birthday weekend, but one more birthday thing tuesday. [03:10] happy birthday SketchCow [03:10] i got this episode of the screen savers: http://www.demonoid.me/files/details/2304596/005207742174/ [03:10] not on youtube even [03:11] suprisely there is only 2 very old episode of the screen savers from 1999 [03:13] this is the 3 episode but with commercials [03:13] *3 episode from 1999 [03:14] diggnation is another podcast not on archive.org [03:15] Give me time [03:15] i have hak5 so i can start uploading that at some [03:16] season 1-3 is was some else will have to do [03:16] tech news today will take a long time [03:17] i put the wiki topics notes into tech news today uploads i made [03:17] http://www.archive.org/details/Tech_News_Today_4 [03:18] another one will be tekzilla [03:18] that was there is nothing on archlive.org [03:18] *archive.org [03:19] another thing i may have to do i go though all the topics links and get downloaded copies of them [03:20] so we have a more complete archive [03:25] whats the best compression method? I zipped up some files and its 44mb, and with 7z format its just 4.5mb [03:25] however 7z doesn't have a recovery record [03:38] http://www.archive.org/details/ShortwavePirateRadio [03:38] A M A Z I N G [03:46] happy bday, Sketch, finished your defcon talk, you are one charismatic speaker, some of the others droned on and on, but you were actually alive., also soy sauce = backups great lead in :) [03:59] I've been speaking for longer than a lot of those. [03:59] DEFCON links to a presentation I gave on how to do a presentation, to its speakers. [03:59] Which is always surreal when they link it to me in acceptance letters. [04:00] point it, you're good at it, i was always taught not to read exclusively from notes, and i don't, because it sounds really obvious, but alot of the others did. [04:03] finally watched the defcon19 archiveteam presentation...nice job [04:03] was that a test tube in your pocket? [04:04] wow shortwavepirateradio...nice [04:50] oh hey sup yotta [04:50] chronomex: do i know you? [04:50] * chronomex aka bitrobber [04:50] oh [04:50] hi [04:50] mind if i pm you? [04:51] why would I? [04:51] some people don't like being pm'd, I ask out of habit. [04:51] for the record, I'm seeding the geocities torrent at 70.90.184.210 [04:54] Aw, I have 11 days left on the Geocities torrent but I will be over my download limit before then [04:55] :( [04:58] That was a test tube full of my friend's ashes [04:59] Just got a lead to speak at Web 2.0 Conference [04:59] On Archive Team, now working on it [05:25] well that's interesting... [05:29] at offset 1,746,427,904 there is a very long string of nulls. this happens the be a multiple of 8192. and the string of nulls is 40960 bytes long [05:29] ARCHIVE TEAM: BRINGING UP THE REAR [05:29] After the champagne has stopped flowing, when the revisions are [05:29] landscape, the user-generated and curated content of millions finds [05:29] maintenance and the sellable has been sold, older web properties find [05:29] refocus. Caught under the blades of this re-tilling of the online [05:29] themselves in danger of falling at the first sign of trouble or [05:29] itself without a voice and with no hope of rescue. As part of the data [05:29] preservation activist group Archive Team, Jason Scott explains the [05:29] importance of this data, the steps they've taken to rescue and save [05:29] it, and what current enterprise can ensure that memory and meaning is [05:29] not lost in the race to the top. [05:30] * SketchCow plays easy listening [05:30] that last clause doesn't parse [05:30] have another shot, DFJustin [05:31] current enterprise is an odd phrase [05:31] But it's business speak. [05:31] It's a business conference [05:31] Dude [05:31] So FUCK THE CLOUD got linked from Reddit. [05:31] I wrote that in January 2009 [05:32] It got linked today [05:32] (It's been linked before) [05:32] I mean you need to either replace "what" with "how" or put "do to" after can [05:32] But today, holy crap, 39,078 unique viws. [05:33] I've sent along your correction [05:33] i'm not sure how much of this broken friendster .tar.gz file I can salvage. there's a 40KB hole in the middle of it [05:33] But now you have to watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VWs28Sgqvg [05:33] (the file is friendster.000230000-000240000.tar.gz ) [05:34] You really shouldn't be downloading those [05:34] Here's why. [05:34] I'm uploading chunks, and new chunks are coming [05:34] (not my range, and downloaded from archive.org as friendster.000023000-000240000.tar.gz ) [05:34] Once that's happens, I'm going to write scripts to do some lint, like you're doing. [05:34] And I will be doing it from a machine in which the average transfer rate is 65mb/sec [05:35] Yank down, analyze [05:35] I was poking at a file that was identifed by someone else a couple weeks ago as bad, trying to see what was wrong and what could be done to salvage it. [05:36] I might be able to save some of the data after the hole. particularly if I can find a stored block [05:46] Just letting you know [05:46] Naturally, you're free to continue working with but you're not free to bitch how much there is to download. [05:54] * SketchCow blows some user newsletters up [05:54] http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150290725964527&set=a.37023524526.46968.706829526&type=1&theater [05:56] This user letter's called "Up Time" and is a CoCo newsletter, of all things. [05:57] hahahaha, jets [06:00] Coderjoe: interesting [06:01] and 40960=8192*5 [06:02] does gzip use sizes like that much? [06:02] or do you think this was just 10 4k disk writes that got lost? [06:04] i think it was a disk issue [06:04] it was not anything to do with gzip [06:05] the deflate stream was in the middle of a dynamic huffman block (BTYPE = 2) when it hit the nulls [06:05] you really went balls-deep in this [06:05] http://www.archive.org/details/uptime-newsletter [06:06] and i'm fairly certain that the block was supposed to end in that null range and at least one new block started [06:06] chronomex: eh. I like playing with compression. [06:06] ouch [06:07] well, nothing wrong with that! [06:08] That's a hell of a line to put in your plentyoffish profile [06:08] dirty old man. [06:09] http://batcave.textfiles.com/ocrcount/ [06:09] See this? This is my little fun life. [06:09] when is the sleeping interval? [06:14] clearly between 4am and 6am [06:14] then a nap around 9pm, it seems [06:15] SketchCow: still waiting on a ping from your super [06:16] Well, she doesn't work weekends [06:16] Unlike people like me [06:16] I think a few weekdays have passed too [06:16] You know, I have not taken a single day off? [06:16] Like, even a weekend? [06:16] Weird. [06:16] Well, Monday, we'll see what she does. [06:17] Sorry for the delay. Some of that's me. [06:17] * chronomex shrugs [06:17] that's leif I suppose [06:17] erm, life [06:26] looks like i found a potentially viable stored block. I need to check on the backreferences to make sure they do not extend past the start of the stored block [06:31] well, (without testing backreferences, but only decoding the huffman codes) that is looking really good for a resync point [06:32] my stream testing tool managed to make it from there to the end of the file without further errors [06:32] rad [06:33] sweet [06:33] Coderjoe: you rock [06:34] I have no idea what you just did, but it's fucking cool [06:34] :D [06:34] so does the file really go all the way to 240,000? [06:35] I haven't actually decompressed it yet [06:35] Aranje: have you heard of darning socks? it's where you add string to fix the holes in socks [06:35] this man just darned a gzip file [06:36] heh [06:36] well, he hasn't magically repaired the hole, but it's pretty close :) [06:37] some people would just go "oh darn. this gzip file is corrupt. all that data is gone." (if there is no backup) [06:37] It's quite awesome that I actually CAN use my machine even though it's using 99% memory and like 20% swap [06:38] Coderjoe: what tools are you using? [06:38] they make these things called DIMMS that can help fix that [06:38] custom written c++ programs [06:38] hmm. worth sharing? [06:38] and a hex editor to look at the file around the damage [06:39] well, these are somewhat dirty, in that it just runs until a final-block flag is set or an error occurs, at which point it triggers a break in the debugger [06:39] ah [06:40] I think it'd be neat to make a compressed-file data structure editor [06:40] don't know how that would work interface-wise though [06:40] world needs more file structure editors [06:42] aside from metadata like headers in a zip file, not terribly well. general-purpose lossless compression takes your bytestream and turns it into a bitstream, where a single bit can mean an entire byte, or flag that some number of bytes need to be copied from the past [06:42] right [06:42] you change one bit and it causes a cascade effect [06:42] hmmm. [07:02] FRIENDSTER.9800000-9899999.tar 17% 31GB 44.8MB/s 55:09 ETA [07:03] i want your upload speed [07:04] I don't even get that speed across my network ;_; [07:05] Even with that speed, it's going to take an hour. [07:05] yes but 31GB [07:05] i could upload blurays with what [07:10] *that [07:19] SketchCow: rsync seems to be done [07:19] yahoo~ [07:24] fuck yahoo [07:25] I suppose I should go read what the geniuses of Reddit have to say about Fuck the Cloud [07:29] what subreddit is it posted in? [07:29] http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/kbzgt/its_a_suckers_game_its_a_game_suckers_play_if_you/ [07:30] Holy shit, 350+ comments [07:32] Of course, dude. [07:32] That's what happened, it became a "oh, he is WRONG, (thing about me)" [07:33] "Meh, I use Dropbox" [07:34] http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/kbzgt/its_a_suckers_game_its_a_game_suckers_play_if_you/c2j2xj9 [07:34] i was reading this one: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/7r07q/fuck_the_cloud/ [07:35] only 69 comments there [07:35] yeah, check the date - that's one of the elder threads [07:35] Argh, I just get sad reading this [07:36] uploaded: http://www.archive.org/details/Tech_News_Today_7 [07:36] Furthermore name a document format that someone could have kept their documents in from 10 years ago that they could read with a modern program on their computer today. [07:36] Love you, reddit [07:36] Well, how about... plain text, you dumbass [07:36] Rich text maybe works if you're more of the ""document"" type of guy >_> [07:37] Also got called a neckbeard [07:37] TeX is designed to be an archival format ... [07:37] ACHIEVEMENT: Called Neckbeard [07:37] * chronomex +1's that [07:37] heh [07:37] haha [07:37] Oh yeah, TeX. [07:38] I think this article actually makes a good point on an important issue, but for reasons he/she didn't explain well. [07:38] "he/she" [07:38] It says JASON SCOTT on the left [07:38] Fucking reddithipsters, can't even read :| [07:38] TeX is actually a good choice, since Knuth's not adding new features [07:38] They're just so bad, I'm just doing a wade so I feel I understand. [07:39] "Oh look, an angry 15 year old who has no fucking idea of what he's talking about... And he's got a blog." [07:39] JimmyHavok 2 points 9 hours ago [07:39] I am so amazed at how many people can't read and comprehend a simple sentence. [07:39] "What he is saying is relevant only to a few people. This would be content creators who are over the age of 45 or idiots." [07:40] O_o [07:40] Newsflash, most are in that case idiots [07:41] it looks like archive.org as most of the linux action show [07:42] and the computer action show that lasted 14 episodes [07:42] action show?!? [07:43] it was a podcast about linux [07:43] the name makes it sound like something exciting [07:43] i think that was the point of the name [07:44] link? [07:44] http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/ [07:45] i have 8 gb source bot dvd for linux that i'm working on [07:45] allan on the show doesn't get the need for archive source dvd [07:46] http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/kbzgt/its_a_suckers_game_its_a_game_suckers_play_if_you/c2j2wgl [07:47] heh [07:50] havn't been facepalming this much since.. quite a while [07:50] should rename reddit dumbassit [07:50] or notreddit [07:51] they article was too long for most of them to comprehend [07:51] *the [07:51] then one shouldn't comment as one has read it [07:51] but I get it, it's trendy and shit [07:52] comment on first paragraph (or even title) > everyone agrees with you because that is as far as they got too [07:53] I have immense patience with most people's writing, as long as I understand their premise. Unfortunately, this is a poorly written article. [07:55] http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/kctmn/the_star_wars_galaxies_emulation_project_is_in/ [07:56] looks like some one wanted to make star wars galaxies emulaters [07:56] good luck with that [08:24] http://batcave.textfiles.com/defcon-photos/P1010273.JPG [08:26] hey look, it's loudmouth [08:26] * chronomex & [08:33] Hm, wget is not doing anything >_> <_< [08:33] Or it's doing SOMETHING, but not outputting anything or fetching a new page.. :P [08:37] yay, now it's working again.. after a 50min hiatus [08:38] http://www.archive.org/details/micromania-segunda-epocha-01 [08:38] FUCK YEAH ESPANOL [08:40] \o/ [09:22] http://www.archive.org/details/micromania-segunda-epocha-12 [09:28] Heh, neat. cd.textfiles.com turned up on a search for something >_> [09:41] getting portal no escape [09:41] using youtube-dl to get it [09:53] does youtube-dl cause download bad files sometime? [10:15] Yes [10:15] i tryed using youtube-dl twice and around 3:00 it starts frezzing [10:16] this is with portal no escape [10:27] I'd try doing youtube-dl -U and try again [10:28] 100% of my times having trouble with youtube-dl, it's youtube who have upgraded something and broken youtube-dl [10:31] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1ZAXYyxd08 [10:31] Now, that's what I call SEO in the tags [10:45] i had 2011.08.04 [10:45] so i have the lastest version of youtube-dl [10:57] Why Does A Lot Of People Write Like This, Especially HeadLines? [10:57] It Makes My Eyes Go Wonky Bonkers [10:57] its Worse When its more Like This [11:00] i got to put some of the old dl.tv episodes up [11:03] Cameron_D: true [11:20] hot choclate + instead coffice = AWESOME [11:20] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEBLt6Kd9EY [11:21] Uhh..

I bet it's traversing all the links or something >_> hasn't done any work (downloading) for 15min now [11:39] ersi: so you think you know the problem with youtube-dl [11:40] i may look at this: http://cclive.sourceforge.net/ [11:40] Stop. Go back and read what I wrote again. Now, read WHAT I wrote, not THAT I wrote something related and skip the content [11:40] it can download anything [11:43] so that link was related? [11:44] You're not making sense to me, so I'll just ignore this completely. [11:45] ersi: your not making sense to me either [11:45] you say > Stop. Go back and read what I wrote again. Now, read WHAT I wrote, not THAT I wrote something related and skip the content [11:46] (06:25:38) ersi: 100% of my times having trouble with youtube-dl, it's youtube who have upgraded something and broken youtube-dl [11:46] (06:28:27) ersi: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1ZAXYyxd08 [11:46] (06:28:35) ersi: Now, that's what I call SEO in the tags [11:46] this is what i got: (06:25:18) ersi: I'd try doing youtube-dl -U and try again [11:46] sorry for the flood [12:02] should i worry about comcast 250gb bandwidth cap? [12:03] i only think everyone here will break the cap [12:10] a little [12:11] ok [12:11] I blew 80gb in a day doing some of friendster. [12:11] i may just upload hak5 season 4 [12:12] then download older tech news today episodes and put them on dvd [12:12] and wait a month [12:13] i think i can get the first 100 episodes of tech news today [12:13] there will be about 10-11gb of video at 256kb [12:18] http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-14878973 [12:18] looks like the Adny Whitfield die [12:18] at 39 too [13:39] i got 12GB of http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Projects#Dead_Projects available for anyone who wants to grab it. highlight me if you do [13:40] godane: if you're stuck with Comcast, see if you can get a "business" account, there's no caps. [13:40] I've been pushing 750GB+ every month, no complaints [13:41] how much does a business account go for? [13:41] Schbirid: 12GB of The Cyberpunk Project? [13:41] I don't remember exactly, but it was almost the same as the residential I was paying for [13:41] ersi: no, emuwiki [13:44] what happen to archiveteam account on thepiratebay [13:59] comcast business pricing http://business.comcast.com/Internet/plans.aspx [14:00] and if you call them, you might be able to get a better price [14:19] saidly upload does go up for the 100mbps plan [14:20] it stays at 10mbps [14:30] for more than 10 they'll try to sell you a "dedicated ethernet" or something really expensive [14:49] i think the 1080p version of portal no escape was cause the problem [14:50] it only start freezing at when started to fire the portal gun the first time [14:50] at the 3 min mark [15:43] Woman Injects Beef Fat Into Her Face to Simulate Botox, Then Dies [17:55] http://os9projects.com/cgi-bin/dl.pl?sub=MAGS/80MICRO/1980 [17:56] My god, this is the slowest link I have encountered so much.

[19:11] Lost the long-term goal. [19:11] Smile through the tears, work through the rain [19:13] Archive Team will be well alive while I am, I can guarantee that. [19:13] Unless it needs to be subsumed/switched, which I will oversee. [19:13] But a random 'meh' followed by darkness? No. [19:34] http://twitter.com/#!/DeadDyingDamned DeadDyingDamned post: ItDied.com - no updates for 1+ year http://www.deaddyingdamned.com/2011/itdied-com-no-updates-for-1-year/ [19:44] http://burnbit.com/torrent/177017/The_Dead_The_Dying_The_Damned_www_deaddyingdamned_com_2011_08_16_tar_gz [19:47] The slow download of these magazines is such torture. [19:47] I'm so glad to be moving it to real bandwidth, though. [19:48] Fuck yeah [19:50] slow bandwidth kills history [19:52] I HEARD ABOUT SCRIBES http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scribe COOL GUYS. [19:52] But slow. [19:52] what's up with that capslock key? [19:54] What about that seven dirty words member you said? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_dirty_words#The_words [19:55] are you a megaHAL? [20:04] I'm your worst nightmare http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QG2MnhrrY7s [20:24] mr gibberishrp [20:27] Did I hurt your feelings? I'm so sorry. [20:27] No, you're just not making any sense [20:27] Not my problem [20:34] Am I forcing you to reply me and quickly? I'm so sorry. [20:35] what the hell is going on here [20:35] somebody explain this [20:43] Here? Nothing but a random megaHAL conversation [20:43] That's always fun [20:46] no chatty bots on #archiveteam [21:45] so AOL & Yahoo are thinking of merging? what exactly should that be called? [22:18] Jawohl [22:35] SketchCow: for the magazines, I'd like to help with the metadata entering- how should I provide the information to you? [22:35] The easiest way is: [22:35] URL [22:35] Metadata [22:35] Continue. [22:36] Do you have a magazine in mind? [22:37] nope- whatever you want done now [22:46] Ok. I prefer people do a whole thing themselves, where possible. [22:46] So the mistakes/goodness is consistent. [22:46] Let me give you an easy one. [22:47] http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3Abig-k-magazine&sort=-publicdate [22:47] Just take out all the relevant information from the table of contents. [22:48] Go as deep or light as works for you. [22:48] I'd prefer something like: [22:48] Big K Magazine, DATE. HEADER: Title, Title, Title. HEADER: Title. HEADER: Title, Title, Title. [22:48] Send it to jason@textfiles.com as a textfile [22:49] I'll throw it in. [22:49] OK/ [22:52] do you like metadata like this: http://www.archive.org/details/hak5_4x04 [22:53] Sort of. [22:53] i added everything from the revison3 page so it can help describe the episode [22:53] Ideally, yes, but I'd rather someone get all the data they're comfortable with up, and someone coming along later, me or someone else, integrating it a different way. [22:53] I find that one tires people out. [22:54] i know it did for me [22:55] I'd rather there be an ok effort, able to be improved, than a half-done excellent one [23:06] haktip will be another thing to put on archive.org at some point [23:06] like 50 episode packs or something [23:17] so you'd like one very large line of text, or break it at 80 characters? [23:21] One very large line. [23:23] also, how can I tell which format is the original scan? (presumably that would be the best quality scan I'm guessing) [23:24] Does that matter? [23:24] I would just use the online reader. [23:25] but in this case, it's the PDF [23:31] I'm glad you mentioned the online reader- it's a major difference in quality over the PDF [23:32]
