01:46 🔗 dashcloud I haven't seen any mention of this project here, and it's definitely something of interest: http://opensource.com/life/14/7/intervew-thomas-smith-project-gado (an open-source robotic scanner)
04:08 🔗 garyrh ಠ_ಠ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8056619
04:10 🔗 ivan` this is an old copypasta from somewhere, maybe reddit
04:15 🔗 garyrh oh yeah, i see it is old.
08:12 🔗 godane i found a msnbc video about digg.com
13:41 🔗 schbirid anyone good with rsync? i have a copy of http://www.gamers.org/pub/idgames2/ which i want to rsync against again. originally i had used wget. there are some symlinks in there, for example the planetquake directory really is in ../something .
13:41 🔗 schbirid now i think i have tried all link options rsync offers with no success
13:41 🔗 schbirid --keep-dirlinks _should_ be what i want, but even that says things like "cannot delete non-empty directory: " "could not make way for new symlink: " when i try
13:42 🔗 schbirid i want symlinks on the source to be treated as normal directories
13:42 🔗 schbirid those directories already exist 99% complete on the receiver
13:42 🔗 schbirid but rsync does not seem to like that
13:42 🔗 schbirid any idea?
13:44 🔗 schbirid i should add that gamers.org is providing me with a non-public rsync access
13:44 🔗 schbirid and that no one should mirror gamers.org hard, they are on very limited resources and pay for overages
13:46 🔗 schbirid --no-implied-dirs says When pulling files from an rsync older than 3.0.0, you may need to use this option if the sending side has a symlink in the path you request and you wish the implied directories to be transferred as normal directories.
13:46 🔗 schbirid lets try
13:51 🔗 schbirid nah
13:54 🔗 schbirid ah, -a might be overriding things
13:54 🔗 schbirid as it sets --links (copy symlinks as symlinks)
14:01 🔗 schbirid maybe the host does not want to serve me the contents of the links as they are outside the directory, i will ask
18:28 🔗 xmc hmmm
18:28 🔗 xmc so you have symlinks out-of-tree and you want those to come over as real files, but you have symlinks in-tree and you want them as symlinks?
18:30 🔗 xmc --copy-dirlinks transform symlink to dir into referent dir
18:30 🔗 xmc ?
19:31 🔗 schbirid xmc: it was the host's configuration, all resolved now
19:31 🔗 xmc ah good
19:34 🔗 schbirid thanks ;)
19:49 🔗 schbirid hm, on some rsyncs it does not output any file list once synced. another rsync always lists lots of directories every time i run it
20:00 🔗 Smiley something very odd there.
20:11 🔗 xmc maybe they have different timestamps
20:39 🔗 schbirid i use -a so timestamps should be updated after one run
20:39 🔗 schbirid well, looks good enough :)
21:06 🔗 Coderjoe SketchCow's panel is up next at HOPE X.
21:06 🔗 Coderjoe you can watch here: http://radio.hope.net/feeds/ManningRoom.html
21:28 🔗 schbirid "Adobe Flash Player v10.1 or above is required for you to watch this video." \o/
21:28 🔗 Coderjoe that's livestream for you
21:36 🔗 schbirid guess i am too spoiled from C3 infrastructure :)
21:40 🔗 schbirid nighty
23:11 🔗 joepie91_ Yahoo! Ending: We have for a while (well, I have) been talking about how there's money to be made in the distribution of digital assets post-death; now everyone's favourite 'not as good as it used to be' web giant Yahoo! have got in on the act in Japan with the wonderfully named Yahoo! Ending (also the exclamation mark in the brandname doesn't really work in this context, does it? Anyway, you can read about how it works here,
23:11 🔗 joepie91_ but before you do I urge you to click on the first link and marvel at some of the best mangled English in translation EVER. "I LOOK FOR THE GRAVE"!

23:14 🔗 joepie91_ http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/129901-yahoo-ending-in-japan-gives-last-will-writing-tips-then-deletes-all-your-data-after-you-die
23:14 🔗 joepie91_ well
