Lord_Nigh |
FM? MFM? M2FM? |
|
02:42

|
Lord_Nigh |
df will read any of those, the issue is decoding |
|
02:42
๐
|
Lord_Nigh |
by read i mean 'make a binary representation of the flux on the disk' |
|
02:43
๐
|
Lord_Nigh |
decoding the magnetic flux into data is a whole nother story |

there is very little chance for me to upload that in one go |

shaqfu: the problem I have is that they divided the internal flash between a system partition and a data partion, and named the data partition /sdcard, moving the real removable sdcard to /sdcard-ext. nevermind all the programs that had been previously written to use the /sdcard path. |
|
07:13
๐
|
Coderjoe |
shaqfu: the result is that some stuff isn't on the removable card, and apps don't seem to be finding their data on the sd I used in my previous phone |

godane: About the large warc files: I assume you've seen wget's --warc-max-size option? |
|
13:25
๐
|
alard |
If you haven't, it might help to keep the file sizes down in some cases. |
|
13:36
๐
|
balrog_ |
alard: does that cause warc files to be split? |
|
13:37
๐
|
alard |
Yes. It will create a numbered set of warc files. Once a warc file becomes bigger than your limit Wget will start a new file. |
|
13:37
๐
|
balrog_ |
ahh, ok cool |
|
13:37
๐
|
alard |
So it's something like: wget --warc-file mywarc --warc-max-size=100M |
|
13:40
๐
|
alard |
However: it doesn't split anything, so if you download one 10GB file you still get a 10GB warc. |
|
13:42
๐
|
balrog_ |
ok |
|
14:52
๐
|
godane |
alard: is there a way to continue downloading a warc file? |
|
15:33
๐
|
alard |
1. To download an incremental warc (don't save unmodified images, for example) you can use the cdx options. |
|
15:33
๐
|
alard |
2. If you really want to make one big warc you can always use cat to combine them. Two warcs make one big warc (as long as the two warcs are proper, complete warc files, of course, it won't work if part of your warc.gz is missing). |
|
15:33
๐
|
alard |
godane: No, in what sense. |
|
15:34
๐
|
alard |
Also, each warc will have its own warcinfo records and ID, so you'll still be able to see that they were originally two separate warcs. |
|
16:16
๐
|
godane |
alard: the problem with cdx options is i still have to download the files for cdx to check them |
|
16:16
๐
|
godane |
i want a way so i don't have to redownload stuff with cdx file |

"Q: Why digitize old motion picture film? It looks horrible compared to modern HD video..." |
|
23:33
๐
|
Coderjoe |
my answer: because we can't send modern HD video equipment into the past to capture the events recorded on these old films. |
|
23:35

|
Coderjoe |
lol |
|
23:35
๐
|
Coderjoe |
I'm pretty sure the majority of the films he wants to digitize have had all copyrights expire |
|
23:36
๐
|
Coderjoe |
I would love to see copies of this stuff stashed in various places like IA (either dark or public). |
|
23:41
๐
|
Coderjoe |
I'm quite tired of the attitude I see in many archives or collections, particularly in films, where even if someone acquires material that would be in the public domain, they don't want to make digital copies available to the public, because they somehow feel it reduces the specialness of their copy. |
|
23:43
๐
|
Coderjoe |
it especially infuriates me when the item in question is something thought long lost |
|
23:44
๐
|
soultcer |
To be fair, there are some perfectionists out there who want to do the perfect "re-release" in digital form and it just takes ages until they finally made a perfect digital copy |
|
23:46
๐
|
Coderjoe |
while I would love a "perfect" copy, I also see a huge need for a reasonably good copy to be made in the interim, PARTICULARLY of things where someone stumbles upon a copy of something that was thought to have been lost forever |
|
23:47
๐
|
Coderjoe |
for example, color copies of this animated short: http://www.whataboutthad.com/2012/02/09/lost-and-found-a-new-taste-sensation/ |

and unfortunately, this is where the capitalist system really is a disadvantage. Things can't happen without money, and people tend to prefer to put money where they can derive some sort of return (moniterily or emotionally) |
