06:42 🔗 SketchCow Like, kickban hate
06:43 🔗 yipdw huh, I didn't know that the BBC did an interview about Archive Team
06:43 🔗 yipdw I guess that means I should tone down the dirty jokes
06:43 🔗 SketchCow Archive teams are whooooorrrrrreesssss
06:45 🔗 SketchCow Typo fixed.
06:45 🔗 SketchCow I assume this was the BBC Click show?
06:45 🔗 yipdw that's the one I'm referencing, yeah
06:45 🔗 SketchCow Those guys were darlings.
06:47 🔗 yipdw I especially liked the bit at the end re: "a losing battle"

07:26 🔗 winr4r GDC things, or just things?
07:26 🔗 winr4r good morning, by the way
07:27 🔗 SketchCow In this case, a little gift for friends
07:27 🔗 SketchCow They're doing this 0 day art thing
07:27 🔗 SketchCow Where they are warezing net art
07:27 🔗 SketchCow It's a very NYC art snob internal thing
07:27 🔗 SketchCow But they recorded it pro
07:27 🔗 SketchCow And gave someone in the audience a vhs recorder
07:27 🔗 SketchCow Now I am digitizing the tape and will release it on TPB
07:27 🔗 SketchCow To warez it
07:27 🔗 SketchCow the CAM before the official comes out later
07:27 🔗 Coderjoe haha
07:28 🔗 SketchCow http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/sets/72157629798425723/with/7070037379/
07:28 🔗 Coderjoe you need a separate board audio feed for a TS, and then a russian dvd for an R5-LINE
07:28 🔗 Coderjoe then the official can come out
07:29 🔗 winr4r lol @ warezing an art show
07:30 🔗 winr4r lots and lots of flowers!
07:30 🔗 winr4r i see grape hyacinths, yay
07:30 🔗 SketchCow http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/6923971938/in/photostream
07:31 🔗 dnova is there an easy way to watch the BBC Click Show dealie about archive team?
07:31 🔗 winr4r SketchCow: so you're 0-daying a 0-day art show
07:32 🔗 winr4r that's wonderful
07:32 🔗 dnova 0^2
07:34 🔗 Coderjoe man, these python mysql database api modules feel dirty and vulnerable to sql injections
07:34 🔗 winr4r dnova: it was a radio show
07:34 🔗 dnova s/watch/listen/
07:34 🔗 winr4r dnova: http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/worldservice/digitalp/digitalp_20120306-2032a.mp3
07:34 🔗 dnova much oblied
07:34 🔗 * dnova tips his hat
07:34 🔗 Coderjoe and no, I don't want an ORM, so don't bother suggesting one
07:34 🔗 dnova hmm that's a 404
07:35 🔗 winr4r uh hm
07:35 🔗 winr4r i just got the link from the page, didn't check it
07:35 🔗 dnova what page
07:35 🔗 winr4r http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00p5qw7
07:36 🔗 dnova thanks
07:36 🔗 winr4r http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00przc2 is the specific chapter but no download link
07:36 🔗 dnova p00p
07:37 🔗 winr4r wireshark time!
07:38 🔗 ersi teehee, p00p
07:39 🔗 winr4r oh, it's doing some RTMP shit
07:39 🔗 winr4r why must they be difficult
07:41 🔗 ersi go check out rtmpdump
07:42 🔗 dnova this is fascinating
07:42 🔗 winr4r apparently they make their downloads unavailable after a certain period of time
07:42 🔗 Coderjoe p00p
07:42 🔗 SketchCow http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/sets/72157629434175548/with/7070062375/
07:42 🔗 winr4r because that makes total sense
07:43 🔗 dnova 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 🔗 Coderjoe unless you warez it
07:44 🔗 Coderjoe or dvr it
07:44 🔗 dnova 6 days seems much more logical to me but I'm not a network executive
07:52 🔗 winr4r AMF string: mp4:/48502/worldservice/css/4000149806.mp4
07:52 🔗 winr4r okay so i'm sure that means something
07:57 🔗 SketchCow OK, finally got the fucking digitizer working.
07:58 🔗 winr4r *cheers of encouragement*
08:03 🔗 SketchCow This video is hysterical
08:03 🔗 SketchCow I'm TOTALLY leaving in the chowder on the bottom
08:03 🔗 SketchCow the out-of-band noise
08:06 🔗 SketchCow I think I'm officially sick of mobileme
08:08 🔗 * winr4r nods.
08:26 🔗 Coderjoe weird
08:26 🔗 Coderjoe I apparently have a .divx file that I have no database record for
08:27 🔗 Coderjoe which is weird because my downloader was only supposed to be fetching videos from the database
08:28 🔗 Coderjoe it also means I have no metadata for it
08:37 🔗 winr4r HA! HA!
08:37 🔗 winr4r i'm downloading a BBC WORLD SERVICE STREAM
08:37 🔗 Coderjoe you're using THE INTERNET!
08:39 🔗 winr4r i didn't need to use rtmpdump at all, just poked around a bit and found an mms stream
08:40 🔗 winr4r i'll just make sure i'm dumping the right one then i'll tell you what i did
08:40 🔗 winr4r (honestly, it'd be substantially faster than me sending it to you, my upstream blows)
08:41 🔗 winr4r 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 🔗 winr4r is what i am trying
08:44 🔗 emijrp are you a hacker?
08:45 🔗 ersi lol'd
08:45 🔗 ersi he sees The Matrix and just picks stuff out of it's bitstream!
08:45 🔗 winr4r that's right
08:46 🔗 emijrp man, can i be your friend?
08:46 🔗 winr4r *single tear of joy falls*
08:47 🔗 winr4r i'm still not totally sure this is the right stream though, but we'll see
08:47 🔗 winr4r until then i am going to make breakfast
08:47 🔗 SketchCow One moment
08:47 🔗 SketchCow zzzziippppppp
08:47 🔗 SketchCow I have another stream for you
08:47 🔗 SketchCow See if you can decode it
08:47 🔗 SketchCow close your eyes
08:50 🔗 ersi Golden.
08:50 🔗 winr4r haha
08:52 🔗 no2pencil SketchCow: is there going to be a block party at Notacon this year? Do you have any more involvement with that?
08:52 🔗 SketchCow 1. No. There will be a "Pixeljam", their replacement
08:52 🔗 SketchCow 2. I am giving Blockparty to a set of people at MAGfest in MD.
08:54 🔗 no2pencil I promise this will be the last year I ask :)
09:05 🔗 winr4r okay, just listened, this is the right stream, but it's 32kbit WMA
09:06 🔗 winr4r would anyone like it cut down to the AT part?
09:07 🔗 SketchCow http://ascii.textfiles.com/archives/3538
09:10 🔗 winr4r awesome
09:10 🔗 * winr4r reads
09:14 🔗 winr4r SketchCow: excellent
09:15 🔗 SketchCow 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 🔗 winr4r hm
09:19 🔗 winr4r 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 🔗 winr4r (note: not knowing a single thing about the subject)
09:20 🔗 SketchCow It's a thing.
09:20 🔗 SketchCow It's not just a problem, it's a terrifying obstacle.
09:20 🔗 SketchCow Which two groups have solved to some extent.
09:20 🔗 SketchCow I have chosen to back one
09:21 🔗 SketchCow The other is going to get very, very angry at me for that.
09:21 🔗 SketchCow But I backed the right horse.
09:22 🔗 SketchCow "Thank you for your recent purchase on Steam.
09:22 🔗 SketchCow (Now, guess what I just bought on steam.
09:22 🔗 SketchCow )
09:22 🔗 winr4r a video game
09:22 🔗 winr4r what's my prize?
09:23 🔗 SketchCow NOT just some mere video game
09:23 🔗 SketchCow But.....
09:23 🔗 SketchCow what?
09:24 🔗 winr4r is zork on steam? that'd be my first guess :P
09:28 🔗 winr4r http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57276499/4000149806.mp3
09:30 🔗 winr4r you on BBC click, cut down to intro + where they start talking about archive team
09:31 🔗 SketchCow Upload it to archive.org
09:31 🔗 SketchCow I'll stick it in the archive.
09:33 🔗 SketchCow I just love that BBC growl
09:33 🔗 SketchCow Oooohhhhhhhhhh have a tough job don't they
09:36 🔗 SketchCow Video ripped
09:37 🔗 winr4r 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 🔗 SketchCow Now rendering out the mp4
09:45 🔗 SketchCow Naturally, the monster box is demolishing it
09:46 🔗 SketchCow It is going to render the 2 hour recording (SD video) in 10 minutes.
09:47 🔗 ersi that's fucking awesome
09:47 🔗 ersi I remember doing H264 on my previous box at 0.4 frames per seconds
09:47 🔗 ersi that was.. a blast
09:47 🔗 ersi in the dick, with a clock from a church tower
09:48 🔗 ersi aka FUN TIMES
09:49 🔗 winr4r SketchCow: sweet jesus
09:49 🔗 SketchCow What's funny is the lady who recorded this for the team used a camera that intentionally had an ancient timestamp
09:49 🔗 SketchCow So you can see it counting the recording time
09:49 🔗 SketchCow And it's going blisteringly fast
09:50 🔗 SketchCow http://mosh.mit.edu/
09:50 🔗 winr4r and an ancient camera, too, given that it recorded to VHS?
09:50 🔗 ersi 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 🔗 SketchCow Gonna change the world
09:51 🔗 SketchCow http://www.soadv.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=PANAGDP800H&Category_Code=PanasonicVHSSVHS
09:52 🔗 winr4r excellent
09:53 🔗 SketchCow http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entries/current-tv-responds-to-olbermanns-suit
09:53 🔗 SketchCow ICE BURN
09:55 🔗 winr4r crikey
09:55 🔗 winr4r popcorn.gif
10:09 🔗 Coderjoe wow. that's a rather professional-looking camera, possibly used for ENG duties back in the dat
10:09 🔗 Coderjoe day
10:10 🔗 winr4r that's what i wondered
10:10 🔗 winr4r i mean who wouldn't want an actual TV camera
10:11 🔗 Coderjoe SVHS and 3CCD? what? a VHS with a vidicon tube is too old-fashioned?
10:13 🔗 Coderjoe at least it isn't umatic
10:15 🔗 SketchCow magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ABEDDE5E5C25D098A3ADAA723825C0EC27804CD5&dn=0%20%20D%20A%20Y&tr=udp%3a//tracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80/announce
10:15 🔗 SketchCow hgalagaaga
10:16 🔗 winr4r what is it, cow?
10:17 🔗 winr4r oh "0 D A Y"
10:17 🔗 winr4r lol
10:17 🔗 winr4r excellent
11:44 🔗 winr4r remove_later.jpg?
11:44 🔗 * winr4r files that away under "wat"
17:29 🔗 zgrant_ Does Archiveteam has any protocols when using pastebin? For example, do you all make the pastebin info public and with no expiration?
17:29 🔗 zgrant_ With or without syntax highlighting?
18:35 🔗 yipdw zgrant_: I don't think it matters
18:35 🔗 yipdw or rather I've never adhered to a protocol and nobody has called me out on it
18:38 🔗 zgrant_ cool. LInk is on it's way in a few minutes.
18:39 🔗 zgrant_ OK, I hope this works. Link to the error msg: http://pastebin.com/YaaKaWaS
18:39 🔗 yipdw oh that's cool
18:40 🔗 yipdw http://www.fanfiction.net/u/207188/AW
18:40 🔗 yipdw never seen that before
18:41 🔗 yipdw at least it's MESSAGE TYPE 1
18:41 🔗 yipdw who knows what MESSAGE TYPE 2 is
18:41 🔗 yipdw ok, I'll adjust retrieve.py to expect that
18:42 🔗 yipdw actually, what that means is that we missed out archiving that user entirely
18:42 🔗 yipdw because that profile existed at crawl time and doesn't exist anymore
18:42 🔗 yipdw hmm
18:43 🔗 SketchCow remove_later.jpg was my idea of fun.
18:44 🔗 yipdw zgrant_: I would like to track those users, so I think I'll be modifying the tracker too
18:44 🔗 yipdw in the meantime, if you hit any more, it'd be cool if you could keep a list
18:44 🔗 yipdw and just restart retrieve.py
18:44 🔗 zgrant_ Will do.
18:44 🔗 yipdw thanks
18:44 🔗 zgrant_ You are welcome.
18:48 🔗 alard yipdw: You could use the id field for that, ends up in the tracker log. (But you probably know that.)
18:49 🔗 yipdw alard: oh, I meant a way to flag work items as "not downloadable"
18:49 🔗 alard Ah, I see.
18:49 🔗 yipdw I guess that could work; append "missing" to the ID field
18:49 🔗 yipdw and mark it done
18:51 🔗 balrog_ SketchCow, others: does anyone know who runs http://princed.org?
18:52 🔗 balrog_ apparently it was last updated 2011-07-31, before it got defaced
18:52 🔗 yipdw balrog_: is the whois info incorrect?
18:53 🔗 balrog_ hmm
18:53 🔗 balrog_ I suppose it should be correct
18:53 🔗 balrog_ yes
18:54 🔗 SketchCow I don't.
18:54 🔗 balrog_ I found out
18:54 🔗 balrog_ http://www.calot.info/
18:54 🔗 balrog_ going to have to contact him.
18:54 🔗 balrog_ defacing a project like this is so wrong.
18:54 🔗 balrog_ SketchCow: FYI we sent out the drive today
18:55 🔗 yipdw what is princed.org?
18:55 🔗 SketchCow Oh, excellent.
18:55 🔗 balrog_ PoP level editor
18:55 🔗 balrog_ they did a ton of work documenting the internal formats
18:55 🔗 balrog_ stayed up to 5am working on it, lol
18:56 🔗 yipdw well
18:57 🔗 yipdw I doubt that "hacker" is actually Tunisian
18:57 🔗 yipdw the Javascript is all written in German
18:57 🔗 balrog_ LOL
18:57 🔗 yipdw or maybe it was just a copy-and-paste job
19:23 🔗 SketchCow Whether you sell liquor, ammunition, or both, your customers demand FIELD NOTES BRAND quality memo books.
19:23 🔗 SketchCow That line made me really laugh.
19:33 🔗 yipdw I wonder if we can replace Dev with a Vocaloid
19:33 🔗 yipdw and consider it an acceptable substitution
19:43 🔗 SketchCow http://www.flickr.com/photos/textfiles/7071618303/in/photostream
19:45 🔗 balrog_ SketchCow: hope you got my PM
20:59 🔗 Coderjoe it would have been cool to see in-process pictures of that mod
21:08 🔗 balrog_ph Coderjoe: I wish
21:08 🔗 balrog_ph We were pressed for time though.
21:09 🔗 balrog_ph I got there 7pm last night
21:09 🔗 balrog_ph We shipped it out this morning.
21:09 🔗 balrog_ph Spent until 5am, since we did tests with a parts drive
21:09 🔗 Coderjoe understood
21:11 🔗 balrog_ph And it worked the first time
21:11 🔗 balrog_ph No adjustments were needed.
21:15 🔗 SketchCow Looks like 50gb coming through fortress every 20 minutes.
21:24 🔗 bsmith093 how big is that pipe!??
21:25 🔗 Coderjoe pipe? at the IA, it's a dump truck!
21:43 🔗 chronomex internet loading dock
22:22 🔗 aggro 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 🔗 NovaKing you guys getting/got picnik?
23:12 🔗 jonas____ good day
23:15 🔗 mistym SketchCow: What was that game-research site you linked the other day?
23:16 🔗 jonas____ 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 🔗 jonas____ excel can do that for a single url, but probably there is datamining software better at it.
23:23 🔗 mistym 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 🔗 winr4r i've used it and it really is a wonderful thing
23:36 🔗 mistym 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 🔗 tef lxml is nicer :3
23:44 🔗 tef (I wrote a scraper framework in python for skyscanner.net)
23:47 🔗 ivan` NovaKing: I have an HTTrack of http://www.picnik.com/ http://blog.picnik.com/ http://press.picnik.com/ from 8 days ago
