02:31 🔗 BlueMax that took it's sweet time, FDM took two hours to prepare a 30GB file for download
06:40 🔗 BlueMax What is my obsession with building up giant collections of retro games and throwing them all on a small portable PC to play them on
09:21 🔗 BlueMax so I'm looking around the Asimov FTP with the Apple II software in it and I find these huge files under /pub/apple_II/emulators/mess
09:21 🔗 BlueMax "Software_Collection_for_MESS_Emulator-Apple II Series Included.zip"
09:21 🔗 BlueMax one's 4GB, one's 6GB, one's 14GB and one's 18GB
09:22 🔗 BlueMax What the bloody hell is in them to make them so big
09:32 🔗 BlueMax also the newest TOSEC sets went up on Pleasuredome as well, which is interesting
10:28 🔗 godane so i coded away for me to start dump cnet buzzoutloud alot faster
10:28 🔗 godane i'm seding the raw html of the wiki i found that has all the info
14:49 🔗 Schbirid is there a single tumblr mirror tool?
17:31 🔗 SmileyG hrrrrrrr.
18:04 🔗 joepie91 well
18:04 🔗 joepie91 I think I've just ran across the nastiest and most low anonnews submission ever
18:04 🔗 joepie91 http://owely.com/81huoBn
18:07 🔗 chronomex what a url
18:07 🔗 chronomex http://undeadatrocity.no-ip.org:8080/social/index/
18:07 🔗 chronomex that really is cherry
18:09 🔗 balrog http://paritynews.com/web-news/item/1061-has-google-shut-down-sms-search
18:10 🔗 chronomex fuck I hate the EU congress
18:10 🔗 chronomex they mandated cookie warnings across the web
18:10 🔗 chronomex fuck guys it's JUST COOKIES
18:10 🔗 chronomex this isn't 1998 when everyone was afraid of cookies and javascript
18:11 🔗 chronomex we've had over a decade of large-scale experience with them
18:11 🔗 SmileyG errrr
18:11 🔗 SmileyG catch up
18:11 🔗 SmileyG lol
18:11 🔗 SmileyG it's already law I believe?
18:11 🔗 chronomex I know that
18:12 🔗 chronomex doesn't mean I can't still moan about it
18:12 🔗 SmileyG true
18:12 🔗 SmileyG :D
18:12 🔗 SmileyG but it also means I can point out you seem to be slow to the party.
18:12 🔗 chronomex for all the bad things that the US government does, most of them aren't as annoying as cookie warnings
18:12 🔗 SmileyG :D
18:13 🔗 SmileyG meh, the annoying bit is needing the javascript to get rid of teh cookie warnings.
18:13 🔗 SmileyG D:
18:13 🔗 SmileyG "I CLICKED ACCEPT YOU FUCKING MESSAGE GET OUTTA THE WAY!"
18:44 🔗 * joepie91 refuses to display cookie crap
18:44 🔗 joepie91 sue me!
18:49 🔗 chronomex yeah I'm in a country not under the EU's thumb, they can suck it
18:51 🔗 SketchCow So, I've been writing a script to convert our mobileme files to WARCs
18:51 🔗 SketchCow It takes a while, what with insane amounts of items involved.
18:51 🔗 joepie91 chronomex: I'm in the Netherlands, one of the first European countries to adopt 'cookie law'
18:51 🔗 joepie91 they can still suck it
18:52 🔗 joepie91 and if anyone actually bothers suing me over it, I'll drag the goddamn thing to court
18:52 🔗 joepie91 just to show how fucking retarded this kind of fake legislation is
18:52 🔗 joepie91 it really has no business existing..
18:53 🔗 chronomex good
18:53 🔗 SmileyG talk is cheap
18:54 🔗 Schbirid https://twitter.com/historyweird
18:55 🔗 ersi SmileyG: Not over the phone, it isnt'
18:55 🔗 joepie91 ha
18:56 🔗 ersi It's a bit more awesome that EU is drafting a law about not being allowed to plant non-authorized seeds in the whole EU
18:56 🔗 ersi ie if a fucking plant spreads without you knowing, on your farmland, you could be in serious problems
18:56 🔗 SmileyG lol
18:56 🔗 SmileyG dam plants.
18:57 🔗 ersi I like the idea of the European Union, I just don't like how it currently "works"
18:59 🔗 godane SketchCow: I have all of buzz out loud year 2007 uploaded now
19:00 🔗 godane i even fix a link in the buzz out loud wiki to get the 012808 episode
19:01 🔗 chronomex ahhh, the EU
19:01 🔗 chronomex best.
19:02 🔗 SketchCow Excellent.
19:07 🔗 Schbirid Excellent Union!
19:09 🔗 SmileyG BY THE WARC OF GREYSKULL, I HAVE THE WARC!
19:10 🔗 godane so here is some coding for my upload script to get the title and desc for buzz out loud
19:10 🔗 godane using raw html
19:11 🔗 godane title=$(cat *.html | grep -B3 $filename | grep title | sed 's|.*">||g' | sed 's|</a>||g')
19:11 🔗 godane title1=$(echo "CNet Buzz Out Loud ${m}${i}${y}: $title")
19:12 🔗 godane this is before the other to in script: filename="${m}${i}${y}"
19:20 🔗 omf_ that first use of cat is a waste. You can just do grep -B3 $filename *.html | grep title | sed 's|.*">||g' | sed 's|</a>||g')
19:21 🔗 chronomex but cat.
19:21 🔗 chronomex also using | in sed s/// is visually confusing
19:21 🔗 chronomex I'm partial to s,,,
19:21 🔗 omf_ using sed to parse html is just straight up a waste
19:22 🔗 chronomex you misuse the word 'waste'
19:24 🔗 omf_ plus that is brittle what if one page has the title tag start on a line and then the title itself is on the next line and the closing tag on another
19:24 🔗 chronomex whine whine whien
19:27 🔗 * Aranje laughs
19:37 🔗 godane it gets the meta data
19:37 🔗 godane thats all i care about
19:38 🔗 godane i'm using cat cause i normally use zcat to grab urls in warc.gz
19:44 🔗 SmileyG zgrep...
19:45 🔗 chronomex sometimes it's perfectly acceptable to have a brittle process.
19:50 🔗 SketchCow All of my scripts insult me like iron man's computer
20:04 🔗 omf_ Thats what happens when you outsource to England, cheeky bastards
20:09 🔗 godane looks like i found clips of news when the hp founder died
20:10 🔗 godane William Hewlett
20:22 🔗 omf_ video games + pro wrestling = http://imgur.com/8WUph7L
20:29 🔗 joepie91 SketchCow: did you ever get the mediawiki stuff working?
20:29 🔗 joepie91 :P
20:31 🔗 SketchCow No, haven't run it yet, that's this week.
20:31 🔗 SketchCow Metadata is fun, but right now I have to make sure a third of a petabyte isn't a big tumor on the boss' system. :)
20:33 🔗 chronomex heh
20:34 🔗 joepie91 fair enough :)
21:02 🔗 godane looks like i'm past 41k videos in g4video-web
21:02 🔗 godane this is just awesome
21:13 🔗 joepie91 question: why is archivete.am not yet registered?
21:19 🔗 Aranje it's 73/year?
21:20 🔗 chronomex that's probably it
21:37 🔗 joepie91 hm
21:37 🔗 joepie91 urlte.am is, though
21:39 🔗 joepie91 also, supposedly, amnic.net (the NIC for .am) charges $50/yr
21:39 🔗 joepie91 to non-Armenians
21:39 🔗 Aranje that's better than 73 :D
21:41 🔗 joepie91 indeed
21:41 🔗 joepie91 also, just went off on a rant at someone that ran every single URL he posted on lowendtalk to his own (mediocre, Javascript-utilizing) URL shortener
21:41 🔗 joepie91 through *
21:42 🔗 Aranje ewwww
21:42 🔗 joepie91 bonus: it was written in such a way that when blocking Google Analytics with Ghostery
21:42 🔗 joepie91 the redirect would fail
21:43 🔗 Aranje er
21:43 🔗 joepie91 anonymous function in google analytics pageview event
21:43 🔗 Aranje that's pretty bad
21:43 🔗 Aranje yeah
21:43 🔗 joepie91 it is
21:43 🔗 joepie91 and why the ^&%$#% is he shortening URLs on a forum anyway
21:44 🔗 Aranje dunno, since you can bbcode the url into relevant linktext
21:44 🔗 joepie91 it's Vanilla
21:44 🔗 joepie91 so
21:44 🔗 joepie91 Markdown
21:44 🔗 joepie91 even easier
21:44 🔗 Aranje I don't know markdown
21:44 🔗 joepie91 [text goes here](http://site.com/)
21:44 🔗 Aranje moodle is the only thing I've ever used that advertised it as a feature
21:44 🔗 Aranje and it... was very hard to use
21:45 🔗 Aranje not moodle, markdown
21:45 🔗 joepie91 perhaps it didn't include a proper reference
21:45 🔗 joepie91 because Markdown itself is quite awesome and simple
21:45 🔗 joepie91 assuming standard markdown
21:45 🔗 Aranje nope, it told you to go look at other markdown references
21:45 🔗 joepie91 not one of the ridiculous variants with table syntax so complicated it's impossible to learn
21:45 🔗 joepie91 right
21:45 🔗 joepie91 Markdown references are generally very very poor
21:45 🔗 Aranje which are comprehensive and thus not useful for "I just want to create footnotes and indent things"
21:45 🔗 joepie91 no clue why
21:46 🔗 joepie91 indentation is not a standard feature of markdown
21:46 🔗 Aranje "also, headings"
21:46 🔗 joepie91 quoting is
21:46 🔗 joepie91 # h1
21:46 🔗 joepie91 ## h2
21:46 🔗 joepie91 ### h3
21:46 🔗 joepie91 etc
21:46 🔗 Aranje huh
21:46 🔗 Aranje yeah if only it were laid out that simply
21:46 🔗 joepie91 footnote, I'm not sure about, I never use footnotes and I'm not sure it's a standard part of markdown
21:46 🔗 Aranje I gave up and manually formatted the text
21:46 🔗 joepie91 sec
21:46 🔗 joepie91 I have a decent cheatsheet somewhere
21:46 🔗 Aranje footnotes is something I use
21:47 🔗 Aranje I hate MLA citations, so I tell my teachers to go fuck themselves and use APA footnote citations
21:47 🔗 Aranje inside of an MLA formatted document
21:47 🔗 Aranje lol
21:47 🔗 joepie91 http://support.mashery.com/docs/customizing_your_portal/Markdown_Cheat_Sheet
21:47 🔗 joepie91 this is an okay one
21:48 🔗 joepie91 k fuck it
21:48 🔗 joepie91 browser froze again
21:48 🔗 joepie91 guess work's over for tonight
21:48 🔗 Aranje haha
21:48 🔗 Aranje thanks :)
21:48 🔗 Aranje yeah moodle does... everything
21:48 🔗 Aranje they can even take text "word formatted"
21:49 🔗 Aranje because msword fucks up your text really badly
21:50 🔗 Aranje the one thing that annoys me about the IT at my school is that they do things the correct way, but only sometimes
21:50 🔗 Aranje there is no redirect from http to https on our school's moodle install
21:51 🔗 Aranje it just tells you to fuck off and use https
21:51 🔗 Aranje which is the correct way, but not the best way for idiot college kids
21:52 🔗 Aranje and they don't send hsts on the https connections, which is both dumb and smart
21:56 🔗 joepie91 it seems like technology wants me to play games today
21:56 🔗 joepie91 all my work-related software and platforms are either crashing or freezing
21:56 🔗 joepie91 neverwinter nights runs fine
21:56 🔗 joepie91 so, eh
21:56 🔗 joepie91 perhaps I should give in to technology
21:58 🔗 Aranje :3
21:59 🔗 Aranje it's a conspiracy to make you less productive! skynet has gone rogue!
22:00 🔗 joepie91 so it seems...
22:01 🔗 joepie91 :|
23:26 🔗 dashcloud this is pretty awesome: http://divshot.github.io/geo-bootstrap/ A Geocities-style theme you can use for your website
23:32 🔗 godane so there maybe some napster dialup videos i can find
23:35 🔗 godane i found one of them
23:35 🔗 godane its 55 mins long
23:35 🔗 omf_ What exactly is a napster dialup video?
23:36 🔗 godane its the hears on napster from techtv
23:36 🔗 godane website
23:36 🔗 godane but is only in dialup
23:37 🔗 godane also i think is came before techtv existed and it was zdtv
23:37 🔗 godane there are lot of full epiisodes from the year 2000
23:37 🔗 omf_ you mean dialup resolution and size. Got it
23:38 🔗 godane it was converted to flash
23:38 🔗 godane this one clip is 136mb
23:38 🔗 godane should be around 14-15mb if it was the orginal asf
23:48 🔗 omf_ http://theweek.com/article/index/243809/why-babies-in-every-country-on-earth-say-mama
23:48 🔗 omf_ tl;dr boobs
23:59 🔗 SmileyG weird
