[02:47] Are there any advantages people have seen in action of the closed .mobi format versus the open .epub format? [02:59] kindle support [02:59] that's about all. [03:00] balrog, had any experience with the epub to mobi converters? [03:01] to mobi? no since usually ePub is my target format [03:02] hey you want me to dcc you those pdfs? [03:40] Calibre has a command-line ebook-convert [04:24] you used it before ivan` ? [04:25] yep [04:25] Yeah I am thinking about getting a paperwhite right before they launch the new ereaderes [04:25] so something has gone horribly wrong with this (unofficial?) msnbc stream http://www.hulkus.com/watch-msnbc-live-streaming/ [04:26] nook is dead [04:26] I heard the backlight on the paperwhite is too blue [04:26] you can hack it if you want [04:26] and I am not afraid to take that shit apart [04:27] Nothing is perfect [04:27] I am more interested in that new eink display slated for mid-2014 [09:53] What forum software do people like to use? [09:53] I haven't had to set one up in years and they all kinda look alike now with the exception of discourse [09:54] omf_: xenforo is quite okay [09:54] vanilla is also quite nice [09:54] depending on the format you want [09:54] (vanilla differs a lot from traditional forums) [09:55] I think vanilla has a really solid website design [09:58] I personally quite like vanilla actually [10:40] There are so many dead forum software projects [10:51] I have evaluated 21 different forum programs, they all suck [10:54] and that was only one section of the market [12:05] As part of some research I was re-reading this study -https://www.softwarefreedom.org/resources/2013/lcs-slides-aaronw/#/begin [12:06] This was an attempt to check out the licensing issues on github [12:07] I believe based on their normalization process and the small sample size there are significant errors in the conclusions drawn from the report. Has anyone else read these slides and thought the numbers were a little funny? [12:09] They do not provide the source data so I cannot verify how they selected the start date of a repo [12:35] * Smiley looks [12:36] below the top level directory <- fail [12:36] in code file headers <- fail [12:37] is anyone going to help me with my problem? [12:37] I wasn't aware you had a problem [12:38] Or is this "how do I edit the metadata on hundreds of items via S3" ? [12:38] i want to mass change descs dates of my files [12:38] Yeah, no idea. [12:38] its that [12:54] i got it to work [13:00] Smiley: Now i need a way to change 4/3/2003 like dates into 2003-04-03 [13:00] can you do that? [13:10] sed [13:10] * Smiley thinks [13:10] i know i have to use sed [13:10] awk -F/ ${print $3-$2-$1} or something [13:10] awk -F\/ ${print $3-$2-$1} or something [13:12] tim@MushaV3 ~/Pictures/digicam $ echo "4/3/2003" | awk -F\/ '{ print $3-$2-$1 }' [13:13] 1996 [13:13] lol wtf? [13:14] tim@MushaV3 ~/Pictures/digicam $ echo "4/3/2003" | awk -F\/ '{ print $3-$2-$1 }' [13:14] 1996 [13:17] its think its a math problem [13:17] yup, herp [13:17] guys, I think my autism is acting up [13:18] I just cleaned out the family closet full of old cd- and dvd-roms [13:18] and now I have this pile of shareware-bundles [13:19] i have the same problem [13:19] going back to at least 1999 [13:19] AND I NEVER ARCHIVED IT [13:19] oh_boy_here_we_go.jpeg [13:20] I think this is my idea of summer vacation [13:20] plz halp [13:20] you don't need any help :) [13:20] how do you stop awk treating a number as a number, and not as a string? D: [13:21] but shouldnÂ´t i be going outside by now? [13:23] ahh, fuck it [13:23] UV-rays suck anyway [13:23] >shareware CD from 1999: Â¨Programs: WinAmp2.08 - Mp3ToExe - Norton Utilities 3 - McAfee Nuts & Bolts 98 - Surf Monkey - Miles Sound System SDKÂ¨ [13:24] godane: echo "4/3/2003" | awk -F\/ '{ print $3"-"$2"-"$1 }' [13:26] echo "4/3/2003" | awk -F\/ '{ print $3"-"$1"-"$2 }' [13:26] it has to be year-month-day [13:27] Is there any preferred CD-imaging format some of you guys use? [13:27] also we still have to put zeros in front single digits [13:27] for the guys archiving shareware-discs and the like [13:29] godane: and how was I meant to tell which was which? [13:29] swap $2 and $1 around as needed [13:29] as for zeros, thats a bit more fun [13:31] it looks like archive.org works fine without 0 in front of single month and day digits [14:09] uploaded: https://archive.org/details/cdrom-linuxformatmagazine-171 [15:08] Huzzh [15:25] I'm surprised you think you're getting the materials back in one piece, Joe. [15:28] SketchCow: hey [15:29] i figured a way to fix all my meta data for my g4 video grabs [15:29] this way i can add dates into all items [15:31] Excellent. [15:43] the power of awk is strong :) [18:42] http://youtu.be/aJkI6xOPspM [18:42] hmmmm no Ravenloft [18:42] ok, yes, not spam :D [18:48] Smiley my links are diligently curated :P [18:53] http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2013/07/11/the-cult-of-unboxing/ [18:58] Ravenloft: neat [18:59] fun side effect of raid [18:59] everyone is now wondering why the fuck i still have floppies [18:59] lol [18:59] * Aranje :3 [19:01] haha [19:04] thats a side effecto f raid? [19:05] Smiley: I should clarify [19:05] the side effect of the raid that has occurred here [19:05] raid as in search and seizure, not as in HDD RAID [19:05] OH :D [19:05] hmmm, hackers reference? and pfffft [19:05] I made a list of the stuff that was taken here [19:06] in #crytocc [19:06] and a journalist kind of picked up the logs [19:06] including the bit about floppies [19:06] and everyone went insane over "why the fuck does he have floppies" [19:06] also [19:06] I do have to say [19:06] the guys that raided me _did_ nicely sort out my CDs and DVDs [19:06] :) [19:11] So why'd they raid you? :o [19:11] for associating with those idiots at lulzsec 2 years back [19:11] hey, that's funny, it's almost as if you answered the question for me, Muad-Dib_! [19:12] I mean, perhaps you're privvy to some information that I have not yet seen [19:12] but on the other hand, that's quite unlikely, and perhaps you should just let me answer the question [19:12] ersi: they have refused to give an explicit reason, they have only said that I'm currently considered a "witness" and not a "suspect" (which probably means they're looking for data) [19:12] joepie91: you should just keep all your important stuff on floppies [19:12] and have hinted at it being related to Anonymous [19:13] that's all I currently know [19:13] lol what [19:13] balrog: they did also confiscate 5 floppies [19:13] also, ersi, the raid was ordered by the US [19:13] were they unlabeled? [19:13] it wasn't a Dutch investigation (at least not primarily) [19:13] balrog: most likely, yes [19:13] when youÂ´re raided, youÂ´re a suspect [19:13] Of course it was (I'm not being sarcastic) [19:13] ... [19:13] Muad-Dib_ [19:14] is there something you'd like to tell me? [19:16] nothing in particular, why? [19:17] Muad-Dib_: well, you're giving off the impression that you know more about this case than I do [19:17] He's a jihadi, don't mind him [19:17] and there are two possibilities here [19:17] A. you are part of one of the government agencies that was involved in the raid, in which case it would probably be wise to disclose as such [19:18] B. you're talking out of your ass, in which case I have no desire to deal with that kind of crap, and I kindly request you to stfu about things you don't know anything about [19:18] and I'm starting to get quite annoyed by now [19:19] snuggle tiiiime [19:19] two messages and youÂ´re already getting pissed and calling me a spook? [19:19] 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 [19:19] Muad-Dib_: I've given you two possibilities, only one of them is being a spook [19:19] you're free to choose B. [19:20] and yes, two messages and I'm already getting pissed [19:20] youÂ´re giving me a false choice, and you know that [19:20] false choice? then feel free to give me the third option [19:20] or fourth, or fifth, or ... [19:21] i think we have reached the point where nothing productive can come out of this conversation [19:21] lol, lulzsec [19:21] someone sounds pizzed they got raided for being an ass. [19:21] but hey, what do I know :D [19:22] or maybe doxed XD [19:22] dox everyone [19:22] Smiley: can't get raided for being an ass, according to Muad-Dib_ [19:22] can anyone still help me with the date problem with g4 [19:22] you have to be a suspect [19:22] who cares what he thinks? [19:22] or you can't get raided [19:22] joepie91: I'd have expected you to encrypt if you're being this paranoid [19:22] My thoughts on the matter are the only one that matters. [19:22] balrog: paranoid? [19:22] encrypting does nothing since most states have laws to require keys [19:22] Encrypting is not a matter of being paranoid. [19:22] Aranje: oh it does [19:22] * joepie91 fails to see where he's being paranoid [19:23] it gets you held on failure to provide a means to check for lack of evidence [19:23] Anyway, wtf was this about floppies? [19:23] in the usa, yes [19:23] just because smoeone noticed them? [19:23] how about deniable encryption, like truecrypt hidden volumes? [19:23] You can have a shadow partition [19:23] When was the raiding? [19:23] Smiley: I have a bunch of floppies laying around here [19:23] Hidden volumes and shit, yeah [19:23] Smiley: 2 days ago or so [19:23] you should work for archiveteam instead, we get people sued, it's more fun. [19:23] on friday [19:23] joepie91: at home? [19:23] (of course I wouldn't use the official truecrypt implementation, I'd use tcplay instead) [19:23] Smiley:) lmao [19:23] yes [19:23] heh [19:23] they'd have to raid my work [19:23] I was sleeping for like an hour [19:24] when they rang the doorbell [19:24] :( [19:24] they can have fun looking through our pile of 300+ dead hdds [19:24] Smiley: they'll just take them all and go through them later. [19:24] Not sure what I can be suspected of though, I've never done _anything_. [19:24] Smiley: imagine what it was like for them when they noticed the giant pile of CDs/DVDs on my shelves [19:24] balrog: yah, but they'll still have fun [19:25] http://www.flickr.com/photos/21170187@N04/5262975911/in/photolist-9258nZ-8tkNsc-8taRbM-8taT9F-8tdSRN-8tdRXQ-8tdSyd-8tdRQY-8taTgX-8tdRGJ-8taTrR-8tdRAf-8tdRsu-8taRrx-8tdS51-8taR4H-8taTWx-8taTBr-8tdTW9-8tdSGb-8tdRnu-az8KJR-cdwHuC-99kRSv-7JYACZ-8n9iqt << lets play a game [19:26] I have a shoebox full of floppies [19:26] shower time [19:26] and some VHS too [19:26] so what do you think you're suspected of? [19:26] data on VHS old be bad-ass [19:27] I thought about it the other day [19:27] data on vinyl [19:27] Ravenloft: hehe storing on VHS is a bit wacky :D [19:27] stone. [19:27] :) [19:27] carve it into the bedrock, self destruct upon not recieving the heartbeat. [19:27] like, apple II, c64, etc [19:27] k7 [19:27] but on vinyl [19:27] I remember seeing a VHS data backup system for sale back in the day [19:27] had MEGABYTES of storage! [19:28] Muad-Dib_: ISO for single-track data CDs, BIN/CUE for everything else [19:29] the sexy media ever, MD [19:29] mini disc [19:29] UMD! [19:29] like the ones that Neo sells [19:30] "my personal Jesus!" [19:30] at least UMD got movies [19:31] but using it as a data device, you can put .mkv on it [19:31] the MD [19:31] mini-dvds almost was a thing [19:31] it whas the cream for a while [19:32] for camera-recording [19:32] home [19:32] directly on the 8 inch dvd-r [19:33] now that UMD is a dead format, how many movies was released on it? [19:33] it certainly helps to define a time, like LD [19:34] the great safra of 99 certainly was on LD, Fight Club, Matrix [19:36] so i don't know what to do to get the right meta dates for g4 now [19:36] learn awk [19:36] i'm trying [19:36] but nothing i do is working [19:36] godane: what format is your input file in [19:36] just a simple check, for any nmber less than 10, prepend a zero [19:37] 4/3/2003 [19:37] like that [19:37] okay [19:37] and where is that date [19:37] in a file? filename? what? [19:37] in xml warc.gz [19:37] godane: show me the line of the XML where the date is [19:38] tim@MushaV3 ~/Pictures/digicam $ echo "4/3/2003" | awk -F\/ '{ print $3-$1-$12 }' [19:38] tim@MushaV3 ~/Pictures/digicam $ echo "4/3/2003" | awk -F\/ '{ print $3-$1-$12 }' [19:38] errrr [19:38] erperp [19:41] winr4r: this is the xml file: https://archive.org/details/www.g4tv.com-broadbandplayerservice-getvideoclipsbyid-20130525 [19:42] i search based on video key [19:42] but i add -A10 to my grep [19:45] i'm really pissed of with this [19:46] one sec [19:49] echo "2012/4/5" | sed 's/$[0-9]...$\/$[0-9]*$\/$[0-9]*$/\1-\2-\3/' | sed 's/-$[0-9][^(0-9)$]$/-0\1/g' | sed 's/-$[0-9]$$/-0\1/' [19:49] 2012-04-05 [19:49] thats not going to work [19:50] its 4/5/2012 like dates [19:50] oh [19:50] then use my earlier awk to fix it into the dates you want [19:50] well that's easy enough to fix [19:50] | awk -F\/ '{ print $3"-"$1"-"$2 }' [19:50] there :D [19:52] are we in m/d/y format [19:53] | awk -F- '{ print $3"-"$1"-"$2 }' [19:53] even :D [19:53] echo "05/12/1999" | sed 's/$[0-9]*$\/$[0-9]*$\/$[0-9]*$/\3-\1-\2/' | sed 's/-$[0-9][^(0-9)$]$/-0\1/g' | sed 's/-$[0-9]$$/-0\1/' [19:53] sorry but sed looks much more awesome [19:53] i fixed it [19:53] (result: 1999-05-12) [19:54] the last 2 seds plus the awk code Smiley made works [19:55] yay [19:55] keep your eye out for edge cases with that, because you know, date parsing with sed and all [19:55] shrug [19:56] i'm sure they'll be obvious just by looking at it when it's done, so *shrugs too* [19:58] make sure breakage is obvious :D [20:13] i can tell you its working [20:17] :D [20:18] i got a 5-star review: https://archive.org/details/TechTVSept2002 [20:34] g4tv.com-video7166: Best budget DVD and CD burners: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video7166 [21:04] g4tv.com-video7275: DIY boob job: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video7275 [21:11] http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=311446&page=0&view=expanded&sb=5&o=&fpart=1&vc=1&new=#Post311446 [21:26] i'm uploading my mirror of catholiceducation.org [21:26] its 4k files more then on wayback machine [21:31] http://schaaf.home.xs4all.nl/edo/startrek/ [21:31] geocities is leaking [21:31] :p [22:00] how about make a geocities japan pages with all the saved geocities content?
