[00:06] Inspecting. [00:07] alard: 3dporch owner is pledging a couple weeks before any deletions. he's really happy that we're involved and he feels pretty bad about the whole mess [00:07] Good, let's make that shit happen. [00:08] I'd love a statement from the owner about Archive Team. [00:08] and he is trying to find someone to take it over (which kind of scares me) [00:08] SketchCow: alard already has what I think is at least half of the site, probably more [00:08] Excellent. [00:08] and the owner hasn't noticed a blip or complained [00:09] hopefully alard will see the ID list I posted (which came from the owner) [00:14] Who gave me that french magazine site. [00:14] chronomex: [00:14] I think [00:14] Anyway, they're on SOME crazy pipe. [00:14] Because I'm getting 2mb/sec downloads [00:15] 09/13/11 12:14:13 < DFJustin> http://www.abandonware-magazines.org/index.php [00:15] that? [00:15] Yeah [00:15] DFJustin: Thanks for that site, it's been wonderful. [00:22] SketchCow: I am not exactly flush at the moment, but pledging my $100 for the 3pack was made a lot easier by the fact that you sent me get lamp. I just want you to know that. Really appreciate it :) [00:23] You gotta spend money to make me money [00:23] haha [00:28] just threw in my money- most I've spent yet on a kickstarter project [00:29] it's my first kickstarter contribution [00:29] congrats- it's a very nice platform, with lots of awesome everywhere [00:29] Yes absolutely [00:30] The metadata looks solid. [00:30] root@teamarchive-0:/3/MAGS/FRENCH/www.abandonware-magazines.org# find . -size +2M | wc -l [00:30] 437 [00:30] 437 french magazines [00:30] And growing [00:30] :D [00:31] j'aime bien la france! [00:31] they're all in french, and not just collected by a french speaker? [00:31] They're MOSTLY in French. [00:31] In some cases, they're french editions of american magazines. [00:31] http://www.abandonware-magazines.org/downloadrapide.php [00:31] That's the full list. [00:34] that's impressive- they even have some of the CDs that went with those magazines [00:43] so a french n64 magazine had a cd in magazine? [00:44] that doesn't make sense cause n64 was cartidge base [00:44] could be videos or software for PC use [00:48] A leap of faith, perhaps, SketchCow. But not a big one :) [00:49] i just was questioning it. thats all [00:50] i know that with playstation magzine it makes sense to have a cd in it [00:50] godane, I wasn't chastising you, I was replying to an update from SketchCow on the kickstarter project :) [00:50] ok [00:51] I just made a guess about the N64 magazine CD [01:04] just watched the trailer- loved the music. Would people still enjoy the music as much if they could actually understand the words? [01:05] the arcade teaser? [01:05] yeah [01:05] I dunno, why? [01:06] I enjoy it despite not understanding the lyrics [01:08] which leads to my question- would you enjoy the music as much if you could understand the lyrics? [01:09] well how can I possibly answer that question? [01:09] maybe the lyrics are about murdering children and ripping the heads off of kittens [01:09] and in that case maybe I wouldn't enjoy it as much [01:16] damn- from the small bits I see of this magazine (Big K), it's pretty impressive [01:27] SketchCow: i think you will love survialblog.com [01:27] cause they back there shit up [01:28] http://www.survivalblog.com/archivecd.html [01:39] SketchCow: yay [01:39] here's a hungarian site but there's not nearly as much stuff http://pcvilag.muskatli.hu/irodalom/begins/news.index.html [01:41] I really want to find some japanese ones [01:43] aw, laptop and pistol not included [01:47] i think in 3-5 years twitter and facebook will be more locally store [01:48] or at very least synced to local disk [01:48] I doubt it [01:48] but you can currently download your entire facebook profile [01:55] http://gizmodo.com/5839806/intels-next-chip-will-run-your-laptop-for-24-hours-on-one-battery-charge [01:56] with something like 24 hours on one battery and 10 days on connected standby it maybe possible [01:57] combine that with mesh network and your running your own twitter feed on your phone [02:09] I'm moving, and removing the harddrives from a couple old computers I have, prior to donating the equipment to someone who rebuilds these for schools [02:09] I wonder what sort of awesome goodies (porn) await me on these things [02:12] an 81gig, 2 17's, and a 2.1 gig :3 [02:35] Ymgve: what tool were you using to decode MFM on the cray image? I've got some MFM tape images that need decoding [03:38] If I were scanning things in on windows, and getting .bmp's from it, what would be best for turning a collection of them into pdf's. OCR not necessary. [03:39] Or maybe: What sucks less than photoshit for scanning stuff in on windows? [04:04] archive.org will turn a pile of .tif to a .pdf, if you upload it [04:04] imagemagick's `convert' will turn a pile of .anything into a pile of .anythingelse [04:08] Yes [04:09] The lyrics of that song are vaguely in sync with the content. [04:09] It's not just any song. [04:10] what? [04:10] hmm [04:11] I don't want to upload it to archive.org, it's my take home quiz. [04:11] I wonder if xnview will do it [04:16] oh man [04:17] xnview is way better at it [04:17] cept I still can't stick them into 1 pdf [04:17] but I can make 4 good quality pdf's [04:24] I think there's a utility called pdfcat [04:24] sweet. I just verified: that stored block I located works as a resync point. nothing after it refers back to data I can't recover. [04:25] pdf2ps + cat + ps2pdf? [04:25] yeah, that might work [04:25] though that causes document size to balloon [04:29] root@teamarchive-0:/3/MAGS/FRENCH/www.abandonware-magazines.org# find . -size +2M | wc -l [04:29] 1816 [04:29] 1,816 magazines. And growing. [04:30] I might also write something to try and see if I can potentially find a block start somewhere between the end of the hole and the stored block [04:31] because 40KB of deflated data is bad enough to lose. 200KB+ is really bad [04:31] Is this over that thing on the Friendster exhibit/item? [04:31] yeah [04:32] I guess all I can say is I hope your general life improvement is occurring and it's not just 100% to get the data back. [04:32] though I suppose saving the 500MB after the hole is still a good thing [04:34] it isn't like I'm spending all of my available time on this [04:36] Good. [04:36] I'm just saying there's always a chance after cleanup we'll find replacement. [04:37] it's also a fun academic puzzle in finding how much of a corrupted gz file can be recovered [04:38] fuck yeah, xnview is fucking righteous [04:38] You guys keep telling me linux shit [04:39] I'm not scanning on linux [04:39] lmao [04:39] ghostscript is available for platforms other than linux [04:39] never used it before [04:39] and does it have a gui I can use? [04:39] (and ghostscript is what provides the ps2pdf and pdf2ps commands I mentioned) [04:40] I'm not starting in ps format though, I'm starting with an image [04:40] :/ [04:40] you can get imagemagick for windows [04:40] does it have a gui? [04:40] not built-in, there may be a third-party one out there [04:40] I know you all love scripting things, but I wanted to scan 4 pages not 400 [04:41] nobody said anything about scripting [04:41] Well, if I'm not scripting there's no reason to expose myself to the godawful that is cmd.exe in windows [04:42] you can get bash for windows too :P [04:42] anyhow, xnview did it like a champ [04:42] ok, so you scan 4 pages and have tiffs. imagemagic's convert to convert them to another format (ps or pdf), concatinate them, and the run ghostscript on the output [04:42] sounds complicated :D [04:43] The way I did it was: scanned each page in, then saved all as png, then used the multi-page pdf maker and shat a pdf [04:44] huh, tiff does multipage [04:44] neat [04:44] also for linux, pdfcreator can combine pdf files [04:44] yes [04:45] Oh neat, I've got that on windows [04:45] seems to have the same function too [04:45] but it can't do WIA [04:46] which means I'm still left scanning using a different program then putting them into pdfcreator's image2pdf [04:46] pdfcreator actually uses ghostscript under the hood, too [04:46] Which is nice, but gs apparently doesn't speak wia [04:46] which is what I need, being on Windows and not Linux [04:47] fwiw I use IrfanView for scanning on windows, it can do batch scanning [04:47] xnview is very similar in form and function [04:47] (and is what I used) [04:47] why would it speak wia? (and the wia scanning dialog sucks ass compared to the ones I have seen under twain). it doesn't even do SANE [04:48] (sane being the linux scanning api) [04:48] I don't know, why are you suggesting it if it doesn't do what I need? [04:48] :/ [04:49] I don't know of anything that still gives me a twain dialogue anymore [04:49] photoshop doesn't, xnview doesn't [04:49] irfanview does [04:49] I could go and pirate coreldraw because I know for a fact it does, but that seems far out of the way [04:50] ahh yes! But then I have to install a new program to replace one I already have! [04:50] That does the same thing! [04:50] :D [04:54] * Aranje grabs irfanview to see how the import dialogue is [04:56] hah [04:56] irfanview totally uses the same WIA dialogue [04:56] even though it says twain [04:57] :( [04:57] I have this feeling that win7 doesn't /do/ twain [04:57] or something stupid like that [05:03] because I was going under the assumption that you had already scanned the pages to tif files [05:04] gimp does twain and wia, depending on installed drivers [05:05] I wish I could manage to uninstall the wia drivers for this scanner and re-install the twain32 drivers I had before I reinstalled windows... it has a much more advanced interface [05:06] I haven't tried to scan under windows 7, so I don't know if it still offers twain [05:38] I've yet to find something in win7 that doesn't do WIA [05:38] Also, ahh. But no, I hadn't scanned them in yet. [05:39] I tried one and decided .bmp was a shit format (that's what photoshop does by default from the WIA thing) [05:46] dnova: Just found your id list, will have a look at it later today. [08:57] sup? [09:32] Boy, did I buy a coding headache. [09:34] Whoops, coding headache removed [09:34] Thanks to my old buddy 's/.*\///g' [10:07] hahaha [16:41] alard: great, keep me updated if you could [17:16] Member Of Lulzsec Found In #Chat - Sabu Using The Nickname S4BU.

[17:53] high five!!! [17:53] I'm one of the 3 :( [17:54] _o/*\o_ [17:54] they're all going to be amazing [17:54] which 3? [17:54] $100 tape backer [17:54] aha [17:54] I'd like to get the 3 pack but I can't swing that right now [17:55] alas, i dont have disposable income atm [17:55] yeah, the $100 is tough enough as it is [17:55] the best part has been the kickstarter 'community manager' who sent me advice on how to do this [17:55] Changes to make to fix it so it will do well [17:56] Suggestions I ignored [17:56] And you can see the terrible price I paid [17:56] ogod your guna faile [17:56] lol [17:57] I love the community manager [17:57] Basically, I am not interested in providing rewards for $25 investments [17:58] woo fuckyeah++ i found someone who's willing to bankroll microfiche scanning [17:58] There is a very famous band (by some definitions) I am going to contact about doing some soundtrack [17:58] go big or go home [17:59] some justin bieber tracks for the documentaries [18:25] http://www.vimeo.com/6745866 awesome (jerry's map) [18:35] http://vimeo.com/11804927 [18:37] nice, i think who.is just did follow my "please remove my domain's old whois information to protect my privacy" mail [18:48] SketchCow: I'm done with uploading my Google Groups files. [18:49] There are two additional files in the root, those are dumps of the GAE database [18:49] so that others don't have to crawl the index again [18:55] Thanks [19:00] :-) [19:06] Lulzsec Member Sabu Found Using The Nickname S4BU - Same phalse.2600.com Shell - In #chat - Remember Sabu - The FBI Always Gets Their Man!

[19:16] wtf [19:17] perhaps a phraseban on "Lulzsec Member Sabu Found" is in order? [19:23] dnova: I downloaded the images on 3dporch's id list. 96GB + 824MB (nsfw) of images, plus the html pages for these images. [19:23] welp! [19:23] that should be everything then [19:24] I guess so, yes. [19:24] Are there any more images coming, or is it time to start thinking about organising and uploading? [19:25] unfortunately he has not disabled uploads [19:25] i need those nsfw ones [19:26] lol [19:56] http://www.nypl.org/events/programs/2011/09/28/jason-scott-rise-metadata-warrior [20:06] alard: 3dporch owner says your total is correct, so no surprises. Only thing is any new stuff uploaded after yesterday at 5:30pm eastern us time [20:34] "Jason Scott, mascot of Archive Team" [20:35] that's an interesting way of putting it [20:35] dnova: Okay. I've just redownloaded the index pages and am downloading the new additions now. What I don't understand is why these index pages do not list every image. If there are images that are not listed there, how do people find them? [20:36] the uploader shares the link with friends? [20:36] they're "private" [20:36] yeah. [22:05] ---------------------------------- [22:05] Yahoo! is closing Delicious on September 23rd. [22:05] ---------------------------------- [22:07] Let's discuss if we want to archive it. [22:07] I need to go out the door, but we can talk about it. [22:11] what, really? [22:11] that's a shock. [22:11] ... [22:11] didn't we do a project on it a year ago or so? [22:18] I grabbed usernames [22:20] huh. I thought they already had [22:20] SketchCow: source? [22:22] don't they not own delicious anymore https://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/239971/social_bookmarking_rises_again_with_delicious_remake.html [22:25] So the archive has 873 items >30GB in size [22:25] wow [22:28] "The re-launch of Delicious will be something to watch for, thanks to the experiences of Hurley and Chen. We won’t have to wait too long; the new site should be out before the end of 2011. In the meantime, if you are a Delicious user, make sure you log in and give it permission to transfer your bookmarks to the new site so that you don’t lose them when the new site is brought online." [22:28] DFJustin: it reads like they are closing it down to transfer ownership. and it also looks like not all of the data will be transferred, due to users needing to opt in [22:30] which means fuck yeah we archive it [22:30] #Magicallydelicious does still exist [22:30] I'm just the only one in it haha [22:52] I grabbed usernames [22:52] http://www.textfiles.com/delicious/ [22:52] Whoever wants, go for it. [23:24] if people are just listed as contributors, with no indication of what they contributed, should I just put their names down, or should I put (Contributor) after their name? [23:24] put them in the contributor slot, without altering their name. [23:25] well, I have a STAFF: slot, and if they are marked as doing something, I put that after their name [23:25] ah [23:25] originally I didn't put anything after their name, but on the 4th one, I started to [23:26] being consistent is rather difficult [23:26] yeah [23:26] I made myself a template to use, and it kind of helps (except when I misread a heading) [23:31] dashcloud: what're you working on? [23:38] big K [23:39] ah, [23:43] fascinating- some things never changed from the way they were
