00:46 🔗 omf_ Hey we could use it on prisoners. You will drink this nasty clear liquid
00:46 🔗 chronomex nutritious and satisfying
00:51 🔗 omf_ I wonder where they came up with the unopened bottle
01:10 🔗 chronomex you can buy all kinds of stupid things on ebay
01:10 🔗 chronomex http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=vintage+pepsi+unopened
01:12 🔗 omf_ They are calling g4 "The Esquire Network" now. humanity has failed
02:11 🔗 godane omf_: agree
02:12 🔗 omf_ I am in pain
02:13 🔗 omf_ I always thought g4 would lead us more into the mainstream
02:13 🔗 omf_ Now video games mainstream is just a bunch of jackasses playing Maddon and fucking Angry Birds
02:14 🔗 omf_ What happened to Ultima? Kings Quest? Quest for Glory? Space Quest? Daggerfall, chasm, doom, quake, Zelda 2
02:15 🔗 omf_ Storylines are gone
02:15 🔗 omf_ fucking co-op is dead
02:15 🔗 omf_ multiplayer is infested with asshole children on console systems
02:15 🔗 omf_ and then this next generation of video game systems that will not play used games
02:16 🔗 omf_ The asteroid that hit Russia should have hit EA headquarters
02:21 🔗 omf_ We should remove talk capabilities in FPS. It was so much more polite before that happened.
02:21 🔗 omf_ Yes you lose some game advantages
02:21 🔗 omf_ but I personally find the annoyance factor too high.
02:29 🔗 godane maybe it should have been more like IM
02:29 🔗 godane only people your friends with in your buddy list can hear you
03:08 🔗 omf_ that would work
03:50 🔗 joepie91 <omf_>and then this next generation of video game systems that will not play used games
03:50 🔗 joepie91 ah, see, this is where it gets interesting
03:50 🔗 joepie91 because that is not legally possible in the EU
03:50 🔗 joepie91 which will most likely snowball into at the very least controversy in the US
03:50 🔗 joepie91 persistent controversy I mean :)
03:55 🔗 omf_ well it is probably not legal in the US either because of the first sale doctrine.
03:56 🔗 omf_ but they are going to try it and it will have to go to court
06:35 🔗 fpqc god
06:35 🔗 fpqc this was so awesome

06:39 🔗 fpqc but then they get caught up in it
06:39 🔗 omf_ and of course it has vampires
06:42 🔗 fpqc well

06:42 🔗 fpqc the vampire girl
06:42 🔗 fpqc jumps out of his shadow while he's bathing
06:43 🔗 fpqc and is like
06:43 🔗 fpqc hmph
06:43 🔗 fpqc wash me
06:46 🔗 omf_ pushing the boundaries
06:46 🔗 fpqc idk

06:59 🔗 chronomex Jonimus | chronomex: do you know who I might contact to try and find an old IBM PC Bios update?
06:59 🔗 chronomex Jonimus | perhaps someone who archived the old ibm pc ftp site?
06:59 🔗 chronomex anyone got any thoughts?
07:23 🔗 omf_ Trying out my new scraper with a 780k page test
07:24 🔗 omf_ I mean testing it by downloading 780,000 pages as a trial run
07:29 🔗 turnkit Godane - G4 archives were mentioned on the "This Week in Tech" podcast this week. I excerpted it here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0zrw-ezCbsiaVhPa0xxRXRHOU0/edit?usp=sharing
07:29 🔗 turnkit or here: http://twit.tv/show/this-week-in-tech/393
07:29 🔗 turnkit from 2:06:15 to 2:08:34.
07:30 🔗 turnkit The aren't talking about IA but about the original source tapes. Kind of interesting.
07:34 🔗 omf_ Are they being saved
07:36 🔗 omf_ Well this looks to be fun. I am getting 2 seconds a page with 780,000 pages meaning 18.05 days until it is done
07:36 🔗 omf_ yay
07:37 🔗 omf_ shit now I have to write a script in case that fucker stalls out
07:37 🔗 omf_ ugh
08:55 🔗 ersi I want to get the latest Sim City game, but it's full of EA Origin and shit :(
09:00 🔗 Cameron_D yeah, the always-online DRM is turning me away from it
09:00 🔗 Cameron_D I want to buy it, but probably won't because of that
09:09 🔗 fpqc just download a crack =0
09:09 🔗 fpqc i don't pay for games that have drm
09:09 🔗 Smiley ...
09:09 🔗 * Smiley can't figure out where to stand on this issue
09:10 🔗 Smiley I disagree with not paying for software
09:10 🔗 Smiley however I can understand the problem
09:10 🔗 fpqc I refuse to give my money to companies that use drm
09:10 🔗 fpqc simple as taht
09:10 🔗 fpqc *that
09:10 🔗 Smiley However if you buy the software, then download a cracked version, you've essentially told EA that you support it as that
09:10 🔗 Smiley fpqc: so don't download it either.
09:10 🔗 fpqc not really
09:10 🔗 fpqc in fact, i've told EA that I won't pay for it if it's got DRM
09:10 🔗 Smiley fpqc: how is a sale not support int?
09:10 🔗 fpqc you know
09:10 🔗 fpqc voted with my purchasing power
09:11 🔗 Smiley fpqc: and voted FOR DRM.
09:11 🔗 fpqc not really
09:11 🔗 Smiley every pirated copy they can prove is a +1 for DRM in their eyes.
09:11 🔗 Smiley yes. yes really.
09:11 🔗 fpqc because I did not pay for the drm'd software
09:11 🔗 fpqc lol
09:12 🔗 Smiley So they decide they need stronger drm
09:12 🔗 fpqc so the fact that their drm is totally useless
09:12 🔗 fpqc is a vote for more drm
09:12 🔗 Smiley And so you've proven my point. Thank you.
09:12 🔗 fpqc that was sarcasm
09:12 🔗 Smiley the real answer is don't buy anything EA
09:12 🔗 Smiley watch them go out of business eventually
09:13 🔗 Smiley laugh.
09:13 🔗 fpqc anyway
09:13 🔗 fpqc i'm for the abolition of copyright
09:13 🔗 fpqc and patents
09:13 🔗 omf_ people said the same thing about IBM and they didn't dir, they just got more evil
09:13 🔗 Smiley fpqc: nah
09:13 🔗 Smiley fpqc: the problem there is the people with power are the people with money.
09:13 🔗 fpqc no
09:13 🔗 Smiley yes.
09:13 🔗 Smiley XD
09:13 🔗 fpqc the problem is patents and copyright
09:14 🔗 Smiley copyright is only broken because it keeps getting extended.
09:14 🔗 fpqc be a dear a moment
09:14 🔗 ersi Copyright is broken none the less
09:15 🔗 fpqc http://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/jep.27.1.3
09:16 🔗 fpqc "The case against patents can be summarized briefly: there is no empirical evidence that they serve to increase innovation and productivity, unless productivity is identified with the number of patents awarded..."
09:17 🔗 Smiley nod.
09:17 🔗 fpqc same with copyright
09:17 🔗 fpqc they reference a few other papers
09:17 🔗 fpqc that deal with the same question for copyright
09:18 🔗 ersi They're around to stiffle innovation. That's why they're around. That's why they were created.
09:18 🔗 fpqc not really
09:18 🔗 fpqc they were created to give a financial incentive for innovation
09:19 🔗 ersi So that someone doesn't out-"innovate" the lucky motherfucker who filed first
09:19 🔗 fpqc but the fact is that they don't work
09:19 🔗 ersi In my world, that's exactly the same.
09:19 🔗 fpqc your world mixes intentions with effects?
09:19 🔗 fpqc or confuses them anyhow
09:19 🔗 ersi To some degrees, yes.
09:20 🔗 fpqc I think that knowing the motivation for something is important
09:20 🔗 fpqc because if the effects don't live up to the purpose
09:20 🔗 fpqc then you need to rethink the implementaiton
09:20 🔗 fpqc *implementation
09:21 🔗 * ersi gets lé bored
09:21 🔗 fpqc The country needs and, unless I mistake its temper, the country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it: If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something. The millions who are in want will not stand by silently forever while the things to satisfy their needs are within easy reach. We need enthusiasm, imagination and the ability to face facts, even unpleasant ones, bravely.
09:22 🔗 fpqc We need to correct, by drastic means if necessary, the faults in our economic system from which we now suffer. We need the courage of the young. Yours is not the task of making your way in the world, but the task of remaking the world which you will find before you. May every one of us be granted the courage, the faith and the vision to give the best that is in us to that remaking!
09:22 🔗 fpqc - Franklin D. Roosevelt
09:33 🔗 omf_ I hate APIs that do not have high speed pay levels
09:33 🔗 omf_ It is free for anyone but rate limited to hell
09:33 🔗 omf_ I mean they want to make money right?
09:38 🔗 ersi omf_: no
09:38 🔗 ersi they just want you to get off their backs
09:38 🔗 ersi :D
09:38 🔗 omf_ A for profit company runs the service
13:15 🔗 godane turnkit: just watched that clip

16:20 🔗 godane http://runn1ng.github.com/piratebay.html
16:20 🔗 godane i'm brabing the xml 7z dumps he made
16:34 🔗 mistym Can archive.org derive straight from DVD rips, or would it need to be remuxed as, e.g., .mpg first?
16:34 🔗 mistym There's a CC-licensed DVD that's not available online I was going to upload.
16:37 🔗 DFJustin it can derive straight from a dvd iso
16:38 🔗 mistym Nice!
16:39 🔗 mistym I'm irritated with myself that I didn't capture the Rebelles website while it was still up. I hope the wayback machine has it.
16:44 🔗 DFJustin depending on how the dvd is structured it may not get all the chapters/titles, I'm not really sure how it works
16:46 🔗 mistym I'll have to give it a try and see how it works out.

20:50 🔗 omf_ Are there more or less tech conferences each year?
20:51 🔗 omf_ It seems like there are always ones that did it last year but are gone this year
20:51 🔗 omf_ but few we are new and shiny
20:56 🔗 ersi Dunno, maybe pretty constant
20:57 🔗 omf_ I talked with the folks at lanyrd and they don't know because they have not mapped out enough of the conferences being crowd sourced and all
21:10 🔗 DFJustin I love that the IA road trip guys are cruising down the interstate listening to chiptunes
21:13 🔗 omf_ I love it
21:47 🔗 omf_ I need an account to chat on ustream
