01:45 🔗 Aranje has joined #archiveteam-bs
02:00 🔗 DopefishJ is now known as DFJustin
02:05 🔗 SketchCow Currently I'm ripping a lot, and I mean a LOT of Walnut Creek CD-ROMs
02:34 🔗 pikhq Fabulous. Need to get ready to install, like, every single old Linux distro.
02:37 🔗 godane so i'm grabbing CinemaSins
02:38 🔗 godane when i upload that it will be the videos by the month
02:38 🔗 godane that way i know everything in that month is uploaded
02:39 🔗 godane and urls can have a patten to follow by
02:39 🔗 godane :-D
02:41 🔗 wyatt8740 why the fuck do you need to install every old linux distro
02:41 🔗 pikhq wyatt8740: Need?
02:41 🔗 pikhq I'm not sure you understand the premise here.
02:41 🔗 wyatt8740 I get wanting to
02:41 🔗 wyatt8740 but why? almost all of that old software has newer versions that are compatible with modern kernels.
02:41 🔗 godane we archive it
02:42 🔗 wyatt8740 I get archiving
02:42 🔗 wyatt8740 but pikhq wants to install it
02:42 🔗 wyatt8740 and I dont know why :P
02:42 🔗 pikhq wyatt8740: Shits, giggles, non-factual claim as to my intent.
02:42 🔗 pikhq Though I will note that installing really old shit in VMs to play with it is an occasional pastime of mine.
02:43 🔗 pikhq Running X11 on DOS (did you know that was a thing?) was especially fun.
02:43 🔗 wyatt8740 I run old shit in VM's but not X11 in dos.
02:43 🔗 wyatt8740 most of my old shit I run on real hardware. http://i.imgur.com/wGXc0LR.jpg http://i.imgur.com/UcRNNx8.jpg
02:43 🔗 pikhq I won't pretend it has any inherent value beyong learning about history and satisfying autistic obsessions, mind you. :)
02:44 🔗 wyatt8740 http://i.imgur.com/3Hinm7h.jpg
02:44 🔗 pikhq A decent part of why it's been "in a VM" has also been a matter of budget.
02:44 🔗 wyatt8740 sorry, larger image of last one http://i.imgur.com/96YHTG1.jpg
02:45 🔗 pikhq Which is *probably* going to change here soon.
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 all my old shit is free except that famicom which cost me $30
02:45 🔗 pikhq I'm currently in St Louis.
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 and that apple monitor was $5.
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 and that terminal was $20.
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 so I guess most of my stuff cost money
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 but not a lot
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 :P
02:45 🔗 wyatt8740 (actually, I think I paid $18 for the IBM terminal)
02:45 🔗 pikhq I don't think there's a huge retro grab bin around.
02:46 🔗 wyatt8740 HAMfests
02:46 🔗 wyatt8740 ?
02:46 🔗 pikhq *shrug*
02:46 🔗 dashcloud I do run an old version of Ubuntu in a VM because it's the last version that has my preferred DVD creating software, and there's a version of the video trimming software I use without a major bug in it
02:46 🔗 pikhq I'd look, but I'm also moving next week. :)
02:47 🔗 wyatt8740 http://www.arrl.org/hamfests/winterfest-2015
02:47 🔗 pikhq "Moving next week". :)
02:47 🔗 wyatt8740 where to?
02:47 🔗 pikhq Bay Area.
02:48 🔗 wyatt8740 what is 'bay area'?
02:48 🔗 wyatt8740 like florida?
02:48 🔗 pikhq Region around San Francisco.
02:48 🔗 wyatt8740 ah
02:49 🔗 wyatt8740 http://www.arrl.org/hamfests/search
02:49 🔗 wyatt8740 whoops http://www.arrl.org/hamfests-and-conventions-calendar
02:50 🔗 pikhq I'd be shocked if there wasn't a few such things in Silicon Valley.
02:51 🔗 wyatt8740 maybe this? http://www.arrl.org/hamfests/pacific-division-convention-pacificon-2015
02:51 🔗 wyatt8740 I got my IBM terminal, a commodore 64, and my Apple Monitor at hamfests.
02:51 🔗 wyatt8740 also saw but didn't get a commodore 128.
02:51 🔗 wyatt8740 and a tandy CoCo.
02:51 🔗 wyatt8740 and a lot of 386's and such
02:52 🔗 pikhq Yeah. That's on the East Bay, so a *bit* of a drive from where I'll probably be, but not unreasonable.
02:52 🔗 pikhq And besides, yearly event. You can travel rather a ways for those more reasonably than, say, weekly ones. :)
02:53 🔗 wyatt8740 yeah
02:53 🔗 wyatt8740 there's one in fort wayne IN once a year that I turn up for
02:53 🔗 wyatt8740 a friend in indianapolis said he saw a Commodore PET there.
02:53 🔗 wyatt8740 wish I'd been there to buy it.
02:54 🔗 wyatt8740 (at the HAMfest in indianapolis I mean)
03:21 🔗 SketchCow wyatt8740: turning on people doing weird shit that isn't the weird shit you do is low-class.
03:23 🔗 wyatt8740 uh, what?
03:28 🔗 SketchCow 22:41 < wyatt8740> why the fuck do you need to install every old linux distro
03:28 🔗 SketchCow Come on, sir
03:28 🔗 SketchCow I'm ripping every old version of FreeBSD.
03:28 🔗 SketchCow Every old version of slack, of CICA, of Hobbes OS2
03:29 🔗 wyatt8740 I mean, I can play zork on my terminal with the newest versions of freeBSD/linux/whatever.
03:29 🔗 wyatt8740 I have NIB copies of OS/2 3.0
03:29 🔗 wyatt8740 on CD-ROM

05:14 🔗 machinedr has quit IRC (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.91.1 [Firefox 39.0/20150630154324])
05:25 🔗 phillipsj ivan` that reminds me of URL shorteners for soem reason.
05:29 🔗 phillipsj wyatt8740, you don't have back-ups until they are offline, offsite, and *verified*. Installing old images in a VM verifies that they are intact.
05:41 🔗 mistym has joined #archiveteam-bs
06:20 🔗 phillipsj found a sketchy downmlaod page for hotjava: http://downloads.fyxm.net/HotJava-Browser-30893.html
