[00:41] Back. [01:40] http://www.auntiepixelante.com/?p=1268#comment-49436 [01:51] Indeed, we haven't seen the last of you [01:52]

[01:53] I was trying to figure out how to talk about 1970s and 1980s text adventures and not show neckbeards [01:53] I've decided either CGI, or flash cards [01:56] I'd opt for neckbeards [01:56] They're pretty knowledgeable on the subject [01:58] obviously you were supposed to digitally remove the neckbeards [01:58] without a neckbeard, they must obviously be a contemporary sort of person [02:02] Also, my movies are terrible, and people should stop giving me thousands of dollars to make them [02:02] stop it [03:47] http://missionlocal.org/2011/09/tech-bus-takes-down-a-street-light-was-it-a-googler/ [03:55] http://sf.funcheap.com/robot-revolution-night-north-beach/ [03:55] woops wrong chan [05:02] (i'm sure this has been pasted already but anyhoo) [05:02] http://laughingsquid.com/the-deleted-city-an-interactive-640-gigabyte-archive-of-geocities [05:06] http://pandyland.net/57/ [05:09] Yes [05:09] He contacted me about it. [05:11] * db48x sighs [16:08] http://www.berlios.de/ going down, may be worth trying to archive, although it's possible shooting an email to the right address could get a DVD with the site contents.. [16:21] http://developer.berlios.de/ especially ... http://developer.berlios.de/softwaremap/trove_list.php shows thousands of software projects [16:21] ok, part of this is easy.. http://download.berlios.de/gitdumps/ [16:22] I'll see what I can yank out [16:42] Did you just mail me about this, closure? [17:21] closure: http://download.berlios.de/svndumps/ [17:21] http://download.berlios.de/hgdumps/ [17:24] looks like the dumps are just the vcs folder only [20:05] * YoSlick1 slaps MMovie1 around a bit with a large fishbot [21:39] * DreamSale Offers Great Electronics Sale! Prices are reduced up to 50%! Laptops, PDAs, Tablet PCs and more only at X Laptops Co, Ltd. Check us out at http://XLaptops.net [21:57] "Summary: BerliOS will be closed on 31.12.2011" [21:57] http://developer.berlios.de/forum/forum.php?forum_id=37450 [21:57] does the AT know about that already? [22:18] arrith: no, hadn't heard that [22:20] aha. happy to be the first then :) [22:20] sad that it's going down though [22:20] indeed [22:21] jason scott is getting mentioned in the discussions around the news post of it going down and that it looks like a pretty good job for the Archive Team [22:22] heh [22:24] arrith: db48x222: closure mentioned it a little earlier, "I'll see what I can yank out" [22:25] yeah, so I have emailed them about getting it archived on archive.org, and we'll see.. [22:25] ah that's good [22:26] but dang you guys are good at finding out about this stuff. i'll be the first to tell you all about something someday [22:26] pity esr never finished forgeplucker :p [22:27] heh [22:27] closure: we could finish it [22:32] lol [22:33] [22:33] Problem Statement [22:33] At the beginning of October 2009, berlios.de, the hosting site on which my GPSD project lived, went abruptly flatline after months of deteriorating performance; I had good reason to fear that it had died a final death. Though Berlios came back up a few days later, the intervening process of trying to reconstruct my project data from git mirrors and the still-accessible Mailman administrative pages rubbed my nose in three serious design [22:33] issues shared by many hosting sites and many of their software components. [22:34] ouch. great example of what needs to be avoided. [22:35] btw here's a webcite of the announcement: http://www.webcitation.org/625x502de [22:36] anyway, I will probably keep it civil for now, and if I don't hear back, at least all the code repos can be downloaded easily in a day later [22:36] arrith: where are people commenting on the closure? [22:37] "Berlios closing down (berlios.de) " http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3057455 [22:37] is the place i heard about it [22:38] well code and bugs, forum posts, email posts, etc. there's also quite a bit of data on berlios.de that isn't related to projects directly [22:38] such as all the "Portals" on the left: http://www.berlios.de/ [22:40] webcite of the frontpage announcement on berlios.de: http://www.webcitation.org/625xUbsJU [22:41] should we "fork" forgeplucker in git or ask esr for commit access to his svn? [22:45] i'd say fork with git since then you're not beholden to what esr is doing with his svn. might ask him for the "forgeplucker" name if he's not planning on working on the project himself also. [22:52] * Forum and Document Manager state [22:52] * Mantis bugs. [22:52] * Tasks and task interdependencies. [22:52] those are the things that ForgePlucker can't yet grab from Berlios [22:56] we would also have to find or scrape a list of project names [22:56] ForgePlucker only plucks a single project [23:05] that's pretty good. at least not starting from nothing [23:05] indeed
