[00:10] easynews claims 1330 days on their NNTP side [00:10] astra claims 1334 [00:11] soon it'll be 1337 [00:11] they basically retain forever, iiuc [00:11] newshosting claims 1335 [00:12] supernews is giganews's budget provider [00:12] they're very good, highly recommend them [00:12] saturated a gigabit pipe with no sweat [00:13] underscor, archiving all usenet? [00:13] keep all forever [00:52] seems like it wouldn't be too hard to suck down all the text from somewhere like that [01:08] here's an interesting tab I came across during my bookmark&cleanup session: http://www.therwp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48139 (there's a Spectrum emulator+games in Goldeneye) [01:11] Nemo_bis: no, haha [01:11] although that may be a good idea [01:11] Everything except alt.binaries [01:15] old computers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU0lO0u4fVI [01:16] trs80 coco [04:06] http://archive.org/details/byte-magazine-1981-09 [04:06] Test successful. [04:06] It looks nice. [04:07] neat [04:51] I love fucking with Sony guys [04:51] Because 1. Fuck sony [04:51] Do I need a 2 [05:00] 2. Fuck yahoo? [05:06] There's something there. [05:06] What'd you think of the ascii weblog entry,chronomex [05:15] well, given the transcript, they sure rescued it from being complete shit [05:16] a fair recounting [05:18] SketchCow: ping, go take a look in the other channel :) [06:01] balrog_: you do that by saying his name over there [06:07] SketchCow, typo in title "Artifical" [06:07] :p [06:12] seems he's afk ;) [06:42] Will get to. [06:42] Balrog, please stop the ping thing. [06:42] I really, really, really, really hate it. [06:42] I really hate it. [06:42] Like, kickban hate [06:43] huh, I didn't know that the BBC did an interview about Archive Team [06:43] I guess that means I should tone down the dirty jokes [06:43] Archive teams are whooooorrrrrreesssss [06:45] Typo fixed. [06:45] I assume this was the BBC Click show? [06:45] that's the one I'm referencing, yeah [06:45] Those guys were darlings. [06:47] I especially liked the bit at the end re: "a losing battle" [06:48] also, after listening to Bill Thompson, I think we need an AT PSA done by Stephen Fry [06:48] if the FSF can get one, I'm sure we can too [07:05] I'm uploading dozens of flower photos. [07:05] 69 of them, actually [07:06] Also, digitizing some VHS tape. [07:26] excellent [07:26] GDC things, or just things? [07:26] good morning, by the way [07:27] In this case, a little gift for friends [07:27] They're doing this 0 day art thing [07:27] Where they are warezing net art [07:27] It's a very NYC art snob internal thing [07:27] But they recorded it pro [07:27] And gave someone in the audience a vhs recorder [07:27] Now I am digitizing the tape and will release it on TPB [07:27] To warez it [07:27] the CAM before the official comes out later [07:27] haha [07:28] http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/sets/72157629798425723/with/7070037379/ [07:28] you need a separate board audio feed for a TS, and then a russian dvd for an R5-LINE [07:28] then the official can come out [07:29] lol @ warezing an art show [07:30] lots and lots of flowers! [07:30] i see grape hyacinths, yay [07:30] http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/6923971938/in/photostream [07:31] is there an easy way to watch the BBC Click Show dealie about archive team? [07:31] SketchCow: so you're 0-daying a 0-day art show [07:32] that's wonderful [07:32] 0^2 [07:34] man, these python mysql database api modules feel dirty and vulnerable to sql injections [07:34] dnova: it was a radio show [07:34] s/watch/listen/ [07:34] dnova: http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/worldservice/digitalp/digitalp_20120306-2032a.mp3 [07:34] much oblied [07:34] * dnova tips his hat [07:34] and no, I don't want an ORM, so don't bother suggesting one [07:34] hmm that's a 404 [07:35] uh hm [07:35] i just got the link from the page, didn't check it [07:35] what page [07:35] http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00p5qw7 [07:36] thanks [07:36] http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00przc2 is the specific chapter but no download link [07:36] p00p [07:37] wireshark time! [07:38] teehee, p00p [07:39] oh, it's doing some RTMP shit [07:39] why must they be difficult [07:41] go check out rtmpdump [07:42] this is fascinating [07:42] apparently they make their downloads unavailable after a certain period of time [07:42] p00p [07:42] http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/sets/72157629434175548/with/7070062375/ [07:42] because that makes total sense [07:43] you know what makes total sense? FOX delays its online streaming episodes for 8 days after the air date. That means you can *never* catch back up with the broadcast version and watch it live... [07:43] unless you warez it [07:44] or dvr it [07:44] 6 days seems much more logical to me but I'm not a network executive [07:52] AMF string: mp4:/48502/worldservice/css/4000149806.mp4 [07:52] okay so i'm sure that means something [07:57] OK, finally got the fucking digitizer working. [07:58] *cheers of encouragement* [08:03] This video is hysterical [08:03] I'm TOTALLY leaving in the chowder on the bottom [08:03] the out-of-band noise [08:06] I think I'm officially sick of mobileme [08:08] * winr4r nods. [08:26] weird [08:26] I apparently have a .divx file that I have no database record for [08:27] which is weird because my downloader was only supposed to be fetching videos from the database [08:28] it also means I have no metadata for it [08:37] HA! HA! [08:37] i'm downloading a BBC WORLD SERVICE STREAM [08:37] you're using THE INTERNET! [08:39] i didn't need to use rtmpdump at all, just poked around a bit and found an mms stream [08:40] i'll just make sure i'm dumping the right one then i'll tell you what i did [08:40] (honestly, it'd be substantially faster than me sending it to you, my upstream blows) [08:41] mplayer -dumpstream mms://a1899.v394403.c39440.g.vm.akamaistream.net/7/1899/39440/1/bbcworldservice.download.akamai.com/39440//worldservice/css/nb/4000149806.wma [08:42] is what i am trying [08:44] are you a hacker? [08:45] lol'd [08:45] he sees The Matrix and just picks stuff out of it's bitstream! [08:45] that's right [08:46] man, can i be your friend? [08:46] *single tear of joy falls* [08:47] i'm still not totally sure this is the right stream though, but we'll see [08:47] until then i am going to make breakfast [08:47] One moment [08:47] zzzziippppppp [08:47] I have another stream for you [08:47] See if you can decode it [08:47] close your eyes [08:50] Golden. [08:50] haha [08:52] SketchCow: is there going to be a block party at Notacon this year? Do you have any more involvement with that? [08:52] 1. No. There will be a "Pixeljam", their replacement [08:52] 2. I am giving Blockparty to a set of people at MAGfest in MD. [08:54] I promise this will be the last year I ask :) [09:05] okay, just listened, this is the right stream, but it's 32kbit WMA [09:06] would anyone like it cut down to the AT part? [09:07] http://ascii.textfiles.com/archives/3538 [09:10] awesome [09:10] * winr4r reads [09:14] SketchCow: excellent [09:15] In other good news, two kind and intelligent people spent 8 hours hand-writing a floppy drive to be capable of reading flippy disks. [09:19] hm [09:19] was that a problem? i seem to recall you mentioning it once, but i don't know why it wouldn't just work out of the box [09:20] (note: not knowing a single thing about the subject) [09:20] It's a thing. [09:20] It's not just a problem, it's a terrifying obstacle. [09:20] Which two groups have solved to some extent. [09:20] I have chosen to back one [09:21] The other is going to get very, very angry at me for that. [09:21] But I backed the right horse. [09:22] "Thank you for your recent purchase on Steam. [09:22] (Now, guess what I just bought on steam. [09:22] ) [09:22] a video game [09:22] what's my prize? [09:23] NOT just some mere video game [09:23] But..... [09:23] what? [09:24] is zork on steam? that'd be my first guess :P [09:28] http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57276499/4000149806.mp3 [09:30] you on BBC click, cut down to intro + where they start talking about archive team [09:31] Upload it to archive.org [09:31] I'll stick it in the archive. [09:33] I just love that BBC growl [09:33] Oooohhhhhhhhhh have a tough job don't they [09:36] Video ripped [09:37] i'm not even sure how to upload to archive.org, i did create an account there with the goal of putting the geocities screenshots online but i ended up copying them straight to you instead and never looked further into it [09:45] Now rendering out the mp4 [09:45] Naturally, the monster box is demolishing it [09:46] It is going to render the 2 hour recording (SD video) in 10 minutes. [09:47] that's fucking awesome [09:47] I remember doing H264 on my previous box at 0.4 frames per seconds [09:47] that was.. a blast [09:47] in the dick, with a clock from a church tower [09:48] aka FUN TIMES [09:49] SketchCow: sweet jesus [09:49] What's funny is the lady who recorded this for the team used a camera that intentionally had an ancient timestamp [09:49] So you can see it counting the recording time [09:49] And it's going blisteringly fast [09:50] http://mosh.mit.edu/ [09:50] and an ancient camera, too, given that it recorded to VHS? [09:50] silly napkin calc tells me you're going above 300 frames per second, my calculations said 360 but that assumes one sec ? 30 frames [09:50] Gonna change the world [09:51] http://www.soadv.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=PANAGDP800H&Category_Code=PanasonicVHSSVHS [09:52] excellent [09:53] http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entries/current-tv-responds-to-olbermanns-suit [09:53] ICE BURN [09:55] crikey [09:55] popcorn.gif [10:09] wow. that's a rather professional-looking camera, possibly used for ENG duties back in the dat [10:09] day [10:10] that's what i wondered [10:10] i mean who wouldn't want an actual TV camera [10:11] SVHS and 3CCD? what? a VHS with a vidicon tube is too old-fashioned? [10:13] at least it isn't umatic [10:15] magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ABEDDE5E5C25D098A3ADAA723825C0EC27804CD5&dn=0%20%20D%20A%20Y&tr=udp%3a//tracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80/announce [10:15] hgalagaaga [10:16] what is it, cow? [10:17] oh "0 D A Y" [10:17] lol [10:17] excellent [11:44] remove_later.jpg? [11:44] * winr4r files that away under "wat" [17:29] Does Archiveteam has any protocols when using pastebin? For example, do you all make the pastebin info public and with no expiration? [17:29] With or without syntax highlighting? [18:35] zgrant_: I don't think it matters [18:35] or rather I've never adhered to a protocol and nobody has called me out on it [18:38] cool. LInk is on it's way in a few minutes. [18:39] OK, I hope this works. Link to the error msg: http://pastebin.com/YaaKaWaS [18:39] oh that's cool [18:40] http://www.fanfiction.net/u/207188/AW [18:40] never seen that before [18:41] at least it's MESSAGE TYPE 1 [18:41] who knows what MESSAGE TYPE 2 is [18:41] ok, I'll adjust retrieve.py to expect that [18:42] actually, what that means is that we missed out archiving that user entirely [18:42] because that profile existed at crawl time and doesn't exist anymore [18:42] hmm [18:43] remove_later.jpg was my idea of fun. [18:44] zgrant_: I would like to track those users, so I think I'll be modifying the tracker too [18:44] in the meantime, if you hit any more, it'd be cool if you could keep a list [18:44] and just restart retrieve.py [18:44] Will do. [18:44] thanks [18:44] You are welcome. [18:48] yipdw: You could use the id field for that, ends up in the tracker log. (But you probably know that.) [18:49] alard: oh, I meant a way to flag work items as "not downloadable" [18:49] Ah, I see. [18:49] I guess that could work; append "missing" to the ID field [18:49] and mark it done [18:51] SketchCow, others: does anyone know who runs http://princed.org? [18:52] apparently it was last updated 2011-07-31, before it got defaced [18:52] balrog_: is the whois info incorrect? [18:53] hmm [18:53] I suppose it should be correct [18:53] yes [18:54] I don't. [18:54] I found out [18:54] http://www.calot.info/ [18:54] going to have to contact him. [18:54] defacing a project like this is so wrong. [18:54] SketchCow: FYI we sent out the drive today [18:55] what is princed.org? [18:55] Oh, excellent. [18:55] PoP level editor [18:55] they did a ton of work documenting the internal formats [18:55] stayed up to 5am working on it, lol [18:56] well [18:57] I doubt that "hacker" is actually Tunisian [18:57] the Javascript is all written in German [18:57] LOL [18:57] or maybe it was just a copy-and-paste job [19:23] Whether you sell liquor, ammunition, or both, your customers demand FIELD NOTES BRAND quality memo books. [19:23] That line made me really laugh. [19:33] I wonder if we can replace Dev with a Vocaloid [19:33] and consider it an acceptable substitution [19:43] http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/7071618303/in/photostream [19:45] SketchCow: hope you got my PM [20:59] it would have been cool to see in-process pictures of that mod [21:08] Coderjoe: I wish [21:08] We were pressed for time though. [21:09] I got there 7pm last night [21:09] We shipped it out this morning. [21:09] Spent until 5am, since we did tests with a parts drive [21:09] understood [21:11] And it worked the first time [21:11] No adjustments were needed. [21:15] Looks like 50gb coming through fortress every 20 minutes. [21:24] how big is that pipe!?? [21:25] pipe? at the IA, it's a dump truck! [21:43] internet loading dock [22:22] 50 GB every 20 min? A 1 Gbps line can theoretically push 7.5 GB every minute. So... FOS is pushing at a third of a gigabit per second. That's cool. [22:27] you guys getting/got picnik? [23:12] good day [23:15] SketchCow: What was that game-research site you linked the other day? [23:16] is there actually a simple solution to import data from a list of urls with html tables as just one clean .csv file? [23:19] excel can do that for a single url, but probably there is datamining software better at it. [23:23] jonas____: Are you comfortable coding? I haven't used it myself, but Beautiful Soup for Python is supposed to make that kind of screenscraping pretty easy. [23:29] i've used it and it really is a wonderful thing [23:36] Saw a presentation by a guy who built a web-app around scraping data from thousands of sites using it. Was seriously impressive stuff, can't have been easy. [23:44] lxml is nicer :3 [23:44] (I wrote a scraper framework in python for skyscanner.net) [23:47] NovaKing: I have an HTTrack of http://www.picnik.com/ http://blog.picnik.com/ http://press.picnik.com/ from 8 days ago
