|
00:24
🔗
|
godane |

|
00:24
🔗
|
godane |

|
00:24
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Dupes removed |
|
00:24
🔗
|
godane |
and i have that fixed on my end |
|
00:24
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Now, of course, some of these might have shitty versions and some might be better. |
|
00:25
🔗
|
godane |
some of them do look like very bad scans in some cases |
|
00:25
🔗
|
godane |
same are also like the 1 page ads for the item your buying |
|
00:26
🔗
|
godane |
more like spec sheets then manuals in some cases |
|
00:30
🔗
|
godane |
anywasy i only went after those manuals cause it may have gateway support pdfs that are gone from gateway website |
|
00:43
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Well, on principle, the more manuals the better. |
|
00:44
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Over time, I expect help with the devs for working with this material. |
|
00:45
🔗
|
godane |
ok |
|
00:45
🔗
|
godane |
i figured it was going to be more dumping then put metadata into it |
|
00:46
🔗
|
SketchCow |
I'm not allowed to just dump |
|
00:46
🔗
|
SketchCow |
I'm only allowed to help make mechanisms for metadata entry to be easier and easier. |
|

downloading hundreds of rpg fanzines... |
|
18:33
🔗
|
SadDM |
adding even minimal metadata is going to be a *huge* task, but totally worth it |
|
18:34
🔗
|
SadDM |
scans of print zines from the 80s to stuff released this month. |
|
18:34
🔗
|
DFJustin |
IA OCRs it all at least and that does get indexed by google eventually |
|
18:37
🔗
|
SadDM |
true, but even adding titles is going to be a bear. There are dozens of titles that only had 1-6 issues. |
|
18:38
🔗
|
SadDM |
heck even just sorting the stuff could be problematic... I really should have filed stuff as I was downloading :-( |
|
18:38

exmic nods |
|
18:38
🔗
|
SadDM |
but again, totally worth it. There's awesome hand illustrated stuff from the 80s... so cool |

I usually write little shellscripts that pop up an image viewer and ask me questions about it |
|
18:39
🔗
|
SadDM |
ooo, that's a neat idea |
|
18:40
🔗
|
exmic |
for example, my receipt scans: https://gist.github.com/chronomex/11408492 |
|
18:40
🔗
|
exmic |
but you could create ia.py commands or whatever |
|
18:41
🔗
|
SadDM |
oh nice. |
|
18:42
🔗
|
SadDM |
since you mentioned it, where does ia.py live? |
|

SadDM |
I've been using ias3upload, but I'm always open to streamlining my workflow |

|
SadDM |
oh... yep, just found it on my own |
|
18:44
🔗
|
SadDM |
oh neat. It can read from stdin, so you can curl something down and then pipe it straight in. |
|

|
Famicoman |
SadDM, where are you getting these zines if I may ask |
|
20:05
🔗
|
SadDM |
All over the place. |
|
20:06
🔗
|
SadDM |
I found a directory of rpg fanzines, so a bunch came from there |
|
20:06
🔗
|
SadDM |
and then I found another directory, so I got a bunch more from there |
|
20:06
🔗
|
SadDM |
dozens of different sites |
|
20:07
🔗
|
SadDM |
the 2nd directory is a superset of the first. http://rendedpress.blogspot.ca/p/old-school-zines.html in case you're interested |

not gonna bet much on long-term reliability but might be handy for mailing data around: http://www.amazon.com/Value-Disc-Blu-Ray-Spindle-Taiwan/dp/B00DUHUPCS/ |

Not bad at all. What about just mailing external hard drives? |
|
23:25
🔗
|
godane |
i know you can get a 500gb external hard drive for about $50 at walmart |
