Time Nickname Message
00:07 🔗 SketchCow Ordering 1000 more GET LAMPs.
02:31 🔗 Paradoks Yay! But no coins this time, right?
02:34 🔗 SketchCow At the moment, no.
02:34 🔗 SketchCow I MIGHT order more simple coins.
02:36 🔗 Paradoks I suppose that'd serve most of the purpose of having something extra in the packaging, even if it wouldn't be nearly as awesome as the coin that you did for the earlier copies.
02:36 🔗 SketchCow Right
02:36 🔗 SketchCow Still up in the air
02:36 🔗 SketchCow But these things are income, I can't walk away from that.
02:36 🔗 SketchCow Likely to drop price
02:37 🔗 Paradoks And people should have the ability to buy Get Lamp without resorting to eBay.
02:37 🔗 Paradoks 'course, I was amazed at the coin in the first place -- it seemed like massive overkill. Way better than stuff I remember being in computer game boxes in the 90s.
02:39 🔗 Paradoks Still, you seem to have a much easier time with overkill than to risk not doing something right.
13:51 🔗 brayden There's a lot of weird stuff that causes volume mixer to hang it seems
13:51 🔗 brayden Like if any application hangs at all it'll join it in the frozen fun.
16:03 🔗 SmileyG o_O
16:03 🔗 * SmileyG spent the afternoon finding the devs required alot more libs they had no clue they required!
16:29 🔗 balrog_ SketchCow: it appears your bitsavers mirror on textfiles.com/bitsavers isn't properly syncinc
16:29 🔗 balrog_ syncing*
16:30 🔗 SketchCow I KNOW it isn't.
16:30 🔗 SketchCow Here's why.
16:30 🔗 SketchCow They do things to iot.
16:30 🔗 SketchCow it.
16:30 🔗 SketchCow I see them delete manuals, etc.
16:30 🔗 SketchCow So I have to do some careful, careful resyncing when I do it.
16:30 🔗 balrog_ then rsync without --delete, etc
16:30 🔗 SketchCow No, they overwrite too.
16:30 🔗 balrog_ and yes, at least some stuff was deleted because of © reasons
16:30 🔗 SketchCow Did you seriously just tell me about --delete
16:30 🔗 balrog_ can you have rsync append numbers?
16:31 🔗 balrog_ I've used --delete on occasion
16:31 🔗 SketchCow balrog, often floppy disks use something called a "read head" to extract magnetic data off the surface of the disk
16:31 🔗 SketchCow There, now we're even
16:31 🔗 SketchCow Anyway, that's why. I have to dry-run it, see what it takes and leaves, move those aside, keep going
16:33 🔗 balrog_ I see.
16:33 🔗 balrog_ would be nice if rsync could rename the orig file on the dest, then send over the new file, I think
16:34 🔗 balrog_ the reason this is (right now) an issue is because bitsavers.org now redirects to a mirror in the list of mirrors
16:36 🔗 balrog_ and yes, stuff gets deleted, usually due to copyright claims :|
16:36 🔗 balrog_ like the whole diskTrend folder vanished
16:39 🔗 DFJustin at the risk of eliciting another lesson on storage media, there is --backup
16:40 🔗 balrog_ DFJustin: yes, I saw that
16:40 🔗 balrog_ but I don't want to back up unchanged files
16:43 🔗 SketchCow There IS backup.
16:43 🔗 SketchCow But yeah, it makes bloaties
16:43 🔗 SketchCow But if I don't do this more regularly, issues may arise.
16:43 🔗 DFJustin --fuzzy helps with that somewhat
16:43 🔗 DFJustin but fair enough
16:43 🔗 balrog_ DFJustin: that's actually a great feature-request for rsync
16:45 🔗 DFJustin on a related note, what's everyone's favourite tool for identifying/deleting hash-identical files in different folders, I have uniquefiler which is nice for images but otherwise it's pretty windows-y
17:03 🔗 godane SketchCow: do you guys backup bbc podcasts
17:03 🔗 godane only cause there only there for 30 days
17:03 🔗 godane then disappear
17:47 🔗 SmileyG they do?
17:48 🔗 SmileyG thats rubbish ¬_¬
18:30 🔗 SketchCow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIMXL-B_Ax4
18:50 🔗 SmileyG see, I can safely click this without expecting hulabewb.
20:19 🔗 * DFJustin awaits archive.org/details/hentaigames
20:28 🔗 SketchCow I wrote a hentai game FAQ way back when
20:30 🔗 DFJustin I was wondering if your interactive fiction exploration touched on that whole scene
20:36 🔗 godane why is games item not up now?
20:40 🔗 underscor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nyHPIcbn88
20:40 🔗 underscor The game that song was written about
20:40 🔗 underscor IS THE BEST GAME
20:42 🔗 DFJustin does "Makereba Youjo ni Okasareru" mean what i think it means
20:42 🔗 SketchCow I wear your granddad's clothes / I look incredible / I'm in this big-ass coat / from the thrift shop down the road
