[01:24] SketchCow: lots of SOPA news stories uploading to batcave under yipdw::/sopa-news-{1,2} [01:25] there are quite a few duplicates, but I figure I'll just give you the whole thing and curation can occur later [01:51] if it's ingested into wbm, I'd expect wbm will take care of that. [01:51] it'll just count as a "deep and focused crawl" :] [01:55] s/will/should/ [01:56] is there any location for groupings of stuff like that? say a 'deep and focused crawl' gets imported into WBM, would there be a page that links to them all saying like "SOPA stories"? [01:57] I don't think so, I think you'd have to look for a specific site in the WBM interface [01:57] you could make a webpage that links into WBM though [02:03] http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/renewing-old-resolutions-for-new-year.html [02:28] anyone working on grabbing ffnet, cause sopa could kill them too [02:29] i realize its kind of a side target, but once disney's lawyers wake up, theyre not going back into storage until they shut down *something* [02:31] archive-it.org does focused collections like that http://www.archive-it.org/collections/1029 [02:50] that cray dude should get this http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/sys/2811561130.html [02:59] even moores law wouldnt drop the price that fast [03:00] hes taking a huge hit [03:00] he wants it gone, to a good home, not parted out. [03:00] that's worth taking a hit [03:01] I've done the same [03:01] ah, well, that make sense h=then, ive done that too [03:11] http://kvartirakrasivo.ru/404/index.php damn, it's like geocities didn't go away, just moved to russia [03:36] Sketchcow: Is there room for Mobile Me uploads, yet? My linux box is underpowered, hard-drive-wise. [03:39] DFJustin: archive-it looks pretty neat, thanks [04:39] We do need to move on it, though. [04:39] yipdw: Thanks for the stuff. [04:52] what is mobile me, anyway, like apples branded myspace? [04:54] SketchCow: did you poke through the nickel weekly stuff yet? [20:59] I'm quickly running out of space and batcave is so slooow [21:00] and suddenly, ashamed, it received at 700 KB/s for some seconds [22:02] is wayback acting up atm? [22:02] getting a lot of 502 errors :< [22:06] http://web.archive.org/web/20110622183843/http://www.ulogic.org/~jb/debit/downloads/tarballs/debit-latest.tar.bz2 [22:06] that fails :< [22:15] Wayback is always acting up [22:18] I need that file :[ [22:18] Did you try the ia mirror? [22:19] nvm, it doesn't have that page either [22:19] I'm amazed wayback works at all frankly [22:19] Why shouldn't it work? [22:20] it's ridiculously huge [22:21] uh oh http://www.pickmore.com/websites/filesonic-disabled-fbi-threatened-them-like-megaupload-3802 [22:21] Smart move [22:22] When Google changed the Youtube text from "This video is not available in your country" to "This video is not available due to a GEMA restriction" suddenly a lot of people complained about GEMA [22:23] Maybe when more US citizens see an error message for once, it will help too with the fight against the copyright lobby. [22:23] balrog: What's supposed to be in thet file? [22:23] nitro2k01: FPGA bitstream to netlist decompiler [22:24] Ah! [22:24] How long ago did it go down? [22:24] Theory, maybe they switched to a new IP address and the content is still on an old server [22:25] Although there were no records for the domain in dnshistory.org [22:25] nitro2k01: months ago :/ [22:25] I'd like the whole git but that would be messy [22:29] gah, now filesonic is gone too :< [22:50] Wait for Scribd and Dropbox, that'll be exciting. [22:51] I think Dropbox will remain mostly untouched because of their image [22:51] nice thing about dropbox is that wayback can grab their download urls [22:52] Just waiting to see how long Rapidshit will make it though [22:52] so if there's some stuff you wanna keep up, grab it from liveweb.archive.org/ [22:53] Rapidshit, with the ironic slogan "the no-wait company" [22:55] I think going "THIS file-sharing site is safe" is not wise. [22:56] Maybe not, but the end of the dy some ar at greater risk than others [22:56] No, I think they're all at risk. [22:56] It's quite obvious they're going to step through them all. [22:57] http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/14-free-megaupload-alternatives/ [22:57] Exciting. [22:57] What I mean by smaller risk is that dropbox will have a much easier job to prove that there are non-infringing uses for them [22:58] Thus, the risk for legal action is lower [22:58] Just saying "it's all the same" is bullshit [22:58] Yeah, I remember that part where the US government has been letting places prove they can be used other ways before grabbing all their servers. [22:58] They do that all the time. [22:58] ALLL the time. [22:58] "Hey, drug dealer, is this just a legitimate business?" [22:59] "Hey, guy with flashy car, are you a drug dealer?" [22:59] Watch them Ragnarok the whole thing. [22:59] Ragnarok: A Verb [22:59] SketchCow: is there any way to get that file from IA? [23:00] ahh yeah it's 100MB :< [23:00] because it contains tests [23:00] Risk is a continuum, not an on/off switch. Just saying. [23:00] Tests? [23:00] I can't find this freaking thing anywhere else [23:00] yeah [23:00] it's an FPGA bitstream decompiler [23:00] it includes testcases [23:00] Is it 100 MB even after bzip2? [23:00] yes [23:00] I found an old version [23:01] Chances are excellent that they don't have it. [23:01] Wayback isn't perfect by a longshot. [23:01] oh jeepers, only up to 0F [23:01] IA that is? [23:01] :/ [23:01] I'm surprised no one backed it up [23:01] there was a slashdot article on the academic paper related to this [23:01] :/ [23:01] So maybe it's out in the wide world. [23:01] google did not help [23:03] well http://web.archive.org/http://www.ulogic.org/~jb/debit/downloads/tarballs/debit-latest.tar.bz2 redirects to http://web.archive.org/web/20110624184833/http://www.ulogic.org/~jb/debit/downloads/tarballs/debit-latest.tar.bz2 [23:03] which leads me to believe they did crawl it [23:03] yeah [23:03] that just 502s, probably due to size [23:03] Send the guy an e-mail jean-baptiste.note@m4x.org [23:03] http://jbnote.free.fr/ [23:03] I was gonna do that [23:03] I guess that's the best solution [23:03] there are bigger files than that in wayback [23:04] but it could be contributing to it farting [23:04] then why does it 502? [23:04] Yeah, I'd say asking the guy would be best. [23:04] I've been getting a lot of unusual wayback instability lately :< [23:04] lots of wayback pages go down temporarily and then come back [23:04] I know [23:04] The wayback machine is a little sick right now. [23:05] did you guys see this i posted a while ago [23:05] http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/renewing-old-resolutions-for-new-year.html [23:05] Filesonic disabled file sharing. Now it's only a file storage website. [23:05] Nice set, NovaKing [23:08] hows that work? [23:09] i cant grab a fs link and post it else where? [23:10] wow, yeah they're storage only now, whats left, multiupload? [23:11] there are a lot of cyberlockers [23:11] I like that they're open sourcing skymap. [23:11] yeah [23:11] Bravo on that one! [23:11] i was impressed about that [23:16] 4shared, 2shared, RapidShare and the others from Multiupload. [23:17] What are the projects for now? [23:19] http://www.dbit.com/fdadap.html [23:19] Just ordered 2 of them. [23:20] Allows the hooking of 8" drives to a "regular" Floppy drive adapter, i.e. for 3.5 or 5.25. [23:20] Which can then be hooked to a kryoflux. [23:20] So yeah, like that. [23:36] SketchCow: do you know if kryoflux still has problems with c64 double sided disks? [23:40] You mean the flippy issue. [23:40] EVERYTHING has problems with the flippy issue. [23:42] SketchCow: which is why flippy disks should be flipped to dump, right? [23:43] advancing the head to negative tracks is not necessarily good for the drive, even after the modifications :/ [23:45] SketchCow: the FDADAP is REALLY nifty [23:45] there's another thing you need though: a dual 5V/24V power supply with a 6-pin Mate-N-Lok connector [23:46] and, the proper AC connector for the spindle motor, if it's a drive that takes AC power for that [23:46] You can flip the actual magnetic disc inside the housing, but that pretty much is sacriliege when it comes to originals [23:46] Ymgve: no, I meant flip the whole disk in the drive [23:46] as was the case back with the originals [23:47] the trick is the index hole â¦ gonna have to think a little about that [23:47] balrog: the problem is then that most floppy drives don't want to read them, due to not detecting the index hole [23:47] I've been working with floppy analysis and have a KF as well as other devices that are similar [23:47] yes I do realize [23:47] what I really want to do is flux-dump DEC RL-01/02 disk packs [23:48] (hopefully RK-05 too) [23:50] Ymgve: you have a lot of flippy disks? [23:50] yeah [23:50] hmm [23:50] actually [23:50] I think I do too [23:50] but most of them can be dumped with a combination of 1541 drive + cable + old DOS machine [23:50] I'll do some investigation into this over the next couple of weeks [23:50] but I only got a serial cable, so originals are a problem [23:50] I see [23:51] there are solutions, but not "easy" ones - you can replace the photosensor with a magnetic switch placed on the drive spindle, for example [23:51] yeah I saw that [23:51] what 5.25" drives are these? [23:51] the TEAC? [23:52] don't remember at the moment, it's been a while since I did dumping now [23:52] (oh, also, I use Catweasel at the moment, but if kf fixes this problem I'll switch) [23:53] I have access to a catweasel too [23:53] do you use the beta drivers? [23:53] or cwtool or what? [23:53] cwtool [23:53] it can't be fixed at the controller level [23:55] DFJustin: does it have to do with the TEAC's MCU? [23:56] also, the issues with the Catweasel are pretty much all because of the way the software and firmware is written [23:56] the hardware itself isn't all that bad :/ [23:56] cwtool can't improve on the firmware which is proprietary and closed-source [23:56] yeah I think it's the mcu on the drive side [23:58] * balrog looks at the TEAC schematics
