05:41 🔗 godane but only one episode is missing right now
05:41 🔗 godane episode 190
09:12 🔗 godane i'm uploading dvd 76 of linux format
15:26 🔗 SmileyG alt+F3
18:47 🔗 underscor http://ia700108.us.archive.org:8088/mrtg/networkv2.html hmm, wonder when it went down
18:47 🔗 underscor lol
18:54 🔗 SmileyG would love to know whats caused it to die
19:55 🔗 igelritte So, I'm guessing from the content on #archiveteam that this room is where folks can talk about things that aren't immediately related to AT's efforts: like new comers asking questions that are probably addressed on the wiki somewhere.
19:57 🔗 alard igelritte: Hi!
19:57 🔗 mistym igelritte: Welcome!
19:57 🔗 igelritte for some reason that
19:58 🔗 igelritte I'm not really sure about, the 'r' is missing off my handle.
19:58 🔗 igelritte I'm guessing that has to do with a character limit that I've exceeded
19:58 🔗 alard You'll have to give up a 't'.
19:58 🔗 igelritte such is life
19:59 🔗 igelritte it wouldn't be the first 't' that I've had to give up through the weary passage of my life
19:59 🔗 mistym Running out of 't's entirely would truly be a tragedy
20:00 🔗 mistym Or maybe it would just ruly be a ragedy
20:00 🔗 igelritte well played mistym
20:00 🔗 igelritte I like it
20:00 🔗 chronomex 't' is surely a useful unvowel
20:00 🔗 igelritte ha
20:00 🔗 chronomex and sound as well
20:01 🔗 igelritte unvowel? Is that the newest entry in New Speak dictionary?
20:01 🔗 chronomex it's like consonant, but without a t
20:04 🔗 igelritte so, I just found out about this project today. There I was, minding my own business the other day, and looking for 'The Prisoner' inspired ANSI art--you know, like you do--when I found this awesome website. Anyone have the opportunity to check this guy out? http://www.filfre.net/
20:04 🔗 igelritte Turns out there was this crazy character in 1981 who wrote a Prisoner themed computer game for the Apple ][.
20:05 🔗 igelritte His write up was very complete and well written. I started reading through more entries and when down a rabbit hole. On the way down Jason Scott's 'Get Lamp' was mentioned.
20:06 🔗 igelritte Which, through a series of twisty passages led me here.
20:07 🔗 igelritte I was really inspired by Mr. Scott's presentation at Defcon on the subject of Archive Team, went to the wiki, and ended on the IRC
20:07 🔗 chronomex \o/ recruitment efforts are working
20:07 🔗 chronomex you should also join #archiveteam, igelritte
20:08 🔗 chronomex even if only to idle
20:08 🔗 igelritte I was over there, but it looked like more NetOps and Sysadmin stuff going on, and I didn't want to interrupt.
20:08 🔗 chronomex nah, don't worry about it
20:08 🔗 chronomex it's triage, project planning, etc too
20:09 🔗 igelritte As long as I wouldn't be intruding. People tend to get techy when they're putting out fires.
20:10 🔗 chronomex dude. don't worry about it.
20:10 🔗 chronomex triage as in "is this worth saving, is there something there"
20:10 🔗 chronomex also wiki maintenance
20:11 🔗 chronomex #-bs is the sidechannel for bullshit
20:11 🔗 chronomex I continue to be surprised at the number of people who think they belong in -bs but not the main channel
20:12 🔗 igelritte I suppose they are people who are used to getting malletted in a chatroom where people are trying to do real work.
20:13 🔗 igelritte something like "bs" seems safer
20:13 🔗 igelritte but I'll head over
20:13 🔗 chronomex wel.
20:13 🔗 chronomex you've seen the talks, so you know what our attitude is mostly.
20:14 🔗 igelritte Moving over to the main channel
20:14 🔗 chronomex you can stay here too ...
20:15 🔗 chronomex or not
20:29 🔗 goekesmi We are fueled by rage?
21:59 🔗 SketchCow Uh, yes?
22:02 🔗 goekesmi Sorry, late comment to igelritte. I'll attempt to be more timely.
22:36 🔗 chronomex igelritte is not here anyway
22:36 🔗 chronomex no worries brah
23:11 🔗 SketchCow He's here.
23:11 🔗 SketchCow Well, in our hearts
23:11 🔗 chronomex awww <3
23:11 🔗 SketchCow He's pinging me in privmessages asking what to do
23:12 🔗 SketchCow I think you can understand my respons:
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:18 <SketchCow> And that's OK.
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:18 <SketchCow> But what you'll find with archiveteam is that it's a very self-directed thing
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:18 <SketchCow> Yeah, I think you don't know how busy I am.
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:18 <SketchCow> So questions that tend not to be answered include:
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:18 <SketchCow> - What should I do?
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:19 <SketchCow> And questions that tend to be answered are:
23:12 🔗 SketchCow 18:19 <SketchCow> - I'm going to go ahead and do this - any of you fuckers got a problem with that?
23:13 🔗 * chronomex nods quietly
23:25 🔗 soultcer I guess Archiveteam is a bit like most open source/hobby projects. You don't really ask "the leader" for a task to do. Just go fork the repo on github and start coding.
23:25 🔗 soultcer But I do like his enthusiasm :D
23:30 🔗 SketchCow Well, it's not an army with a heirarchy and choking bits of keeping people in line.
23:30 🔗 SketchCow If that was the case, we'd have blanket partied godane months ago
23:35 🔗 joepie91 lolol
23:38 🔗 chronomex hahaha
