[00:14] i'm uploading more tech news today [00:47] this is cool: http://mynsarecords.com/ Fill in the form and the site's creator will mail out a Freedom of Information Act on your number, or send out a motion to the FISA court to quash any records on your number [00:52] myguaranteednsarecords.com [00:55] the hacker news story I found that site through covered that point [00:56] in all likelihood, if you are a US citizen (or merely living in the US), there's a record of some kind on you- maybe just a number [00:59] my number is 1337 [01:02] (ʘ_ʘ) [01:02] :D [01:03] Shit my NSA file is probably fucking pages of ASCII art [01:03] and depictions of fucking in ASCII as well [01:19] so i'm going to do a panic dump of hacker news [01:25] if you get blocked you can try hitting http://ihackernews.com/ [01:27] thank you [01:27] i was getting blocked [02:04] godane: why hackernews? [02:16] there are lots of comments on it [02:16] like close to 6 million [02:24] please send me the usernames you discover for the greader grab [02:25] I only have 33K or so [02:25] i may do this mirror later [04:19] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfLxZPf5l2M [09:16] (￣ー￣) [09:17] * BlueMax throws omf_ out the window [09:17] * omf_ throws water balloons at BlueMax [09:18] * BlueMax throws an anvil at omf_ [09:18] what up besides the sky [09:19] boredom mostly. [09:35] 😂 [09:36] * BlueMax chops omf_'s head off [09:36] ✌.|•͡˘‿•͡˘|.✌ [09:37] * BlueMax jumps out a window [09:57] I am super bored too [10:02] I'd play a game or something but I am incapable of focusing on anything :| [10:05] http://www.gcw-zero.com This thing looks interesting [11:47] I wonder how many people download sites to make big data collections and never do anything with it? I was reading some blog posts talking about what they are going to do, fast forward a few years and nothing has happened. I email them asking whats up and they said they never started the project. [11:48] Now this happens far too often but there are two simple solutions to this problem that both fall on the author. First they could simply not blog about things they are *going* to do but things they have done, instead. [11:50] Second would be to take the post down in the future if it never pans out. People are highly judgmental and laying bare all the things you said you were going to do and did not do does not sound like a good idea. [11:50] We have to market ourselves to a certain extent if we want people to pay attention to what we are saying. [14:44] GLaDOS: you there bud? [14:44] da [14:44] who's the provider for the vps we use? [14:44] OVH is. [14:44] and is there a referal link you'd want me to use if i found someone who wants one? [14:45] I'm not sure. Let me check. [14:46] Smiley: https://ultraseedbox.com/aff.php?aff=134 [14:47] those the ones with ssh access GLaDOS ? [14:48] Yeah, the VPSes. [14:48] Dedis as well. [14:48] cool [14:48] (I got the usb-2g dedi) [15:40] Alcohol is what this day needed. I got so much busy work, a few beers will help that along ;) [16:50] omf_: One of the goals of being semi-famous for archiving is people come to me all the time with collections they did years and years ago and I get them into archive.org. [16:52] and that is good. I am talking about the people who say they are going to do something and never even collect the data. [16:55] Well, those people will die and we'll use them for fertilizer [16:55] But we need to move on Xenga [16:55] And the Myspace thing, that's a disaster [16:55] Although in some ways, I'm happy [16:55] yeah I figured out how to get the user list from xenga [16:56] Because people are horrified, and the gap is felt, etc. [17:46] I see bitsavers got walnut creek cdroms. Does one of their members have a site backup? [17:55] bitsavers is mirrored by SketchCow and others [18:01] My bad, I meant does one of the bit savers members have a backup of walnut creek? [18:03] *that* I don't know. where did these cdroms show up? [18:04] I learned from SketchCow's tweet [18:06] No. [18:06] uploaded: http://archive.org/details/This_Week_in_Computer_Hardware_125 [18:06] :( [18:06] bitsavers consists of documents and bits digitized by Al Kossow of the Computer History Museum, who has his own items, and his own collection from the CHM archives, that he's digitizing as fast as he can. [18:07] all of 2011 of this week in computer hardware is going to be uploaded shortly [22:17] i need help [22:18] trying to mirror a podcast based on the burner feed [22:18] problem is the files have spaces [22:19] so i can't do this: [22:19] for i in $(cat *.html | grep .mp3 | sed 's|.*href="||g' | sed 's|">Play.*||g'); do [22:19] wget -c $i [22:19] done [22:19] cause it will drop off at the first space [22:19] have you tried wget -c "$i" [22:20] it fails there too [22:20] its redirecting [22:23] godane, how about providing some actual data like one of the html files you are parsing with that little bit of bash [22:23] http://feeds.feedburner.com/afterserenity [22:23] thats the html file [22:25] i'm just going download it by hand [22:25] also this podcast is to to be ziped up [22:26] mostly cause there pdfs and other stuff in it [22:47] I wonder if jdownloader likes mediafire. [22:48] "- Will there be DRM on the downloads? Yes, these will be DRM files. We know a lot of people have strong opinions about this, and we've talked a lot about it internally. In the end, we feel like DRM gives the download value." [22:49] spoken like a true marketroid [22:51] read: marketing and sales want drm but the sysadmins threw a bitchfit. they got overruled though. [22:51] also "- Why only download? What about Blu-ray or DVD? Both works were created in the days before Blu-ray, and are at SD specs. So it doesn't make sense to put them on Blu-ray, and anyway, we would have to delay the entire Blu-ray release until Jan. 1, 2014, and nobody wants that to happen!" [22:51] kickstarter? [22:51] yes [22:51] how did I guess? [22:51] http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/693293489/time-of-eve-the-movie-on-blu-ray/posts/507328 (backer only) [22:53] though there is a newer update that says they'll do it as a physical release on or with the feature [22:54] and what is with the misconception that if it is on a bluray that it must be HD? [22:55] my argument in favor of that would be orthogonal to it... that bluray disks are more expensive and regular dvd drives more widely supported [22:56] Mainly because bluray was promoted as a HD video disk to the masses [22:56] Aranje: but the main feature will already be on bluray. why ship extra features on a separate DVD when there is still room to spare on the BD? [22:57] Coderjoe:) dunno :) I'm missing any and all context, so I couldn't possibly answer that :P [22:59] seems funny on the face of it though [23:00] so i'm watching one of the lost episodes of TWiCH [23:00] episode 171 does have video links at all [23:01] but file is on server [23:01] http://twit.tv/show/this-week-in-computer-hardware/171
