[00:16] oh dang, filesonic changed stuff too. links might not work [00:17] arrith: they won't work, unless you're the uploader [00:17] oh no :( [00:17] dead MU links and now dead FS links, this is horrible [00:20] i guess FS did it at least two hours ago [00:21] filesonic is the one that blocked the US? [00:22] no [00:26] that's uploaded.to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3495980 [00:28] I'm totally backing Team Kryoflux [00:28] SketchCow: why [00:29] Don't need a degree in engineering to use, team is responsive, have worked with them for years. [00:30] the "degree in engineering" part is because the software isn't quite finished yet. [00:30] Interesting [00:30] Well guess what I buy. [00:30] Software [00:30] we've been doing quite a bit of work on that lately. [00:30] Not incomplete software [00:30] Not dreams, not promises. [00:30] Not assurances. [00:30] I want to do stuff like this http://chrisfenton.com/cray-1-digital-archeology/ [00:30] kryoflux is quite nice but softpres is still too opaque for me to recommend them wholeheartedly [00:30] and I have that type of hardware. [00:30] stacks and stacks of disks [00:30] SketchCow: Don't talk like that, I have a Catweasel, these are painful memories [00:31] for example, nothing has been added to their game database since june 2010 [00:31] Kryoflux has me now. [00:31] "Software? WHat's that?" [00:31] Don't worry, if something comes along that's real and works, I'll integrate them. [00:31] so they must be getting all these dumps but I have no idea what's happening to them [00:32] We're on the edge of taking this into a different channel. [00:32] Because I'm home all week, we got archiveteam projects to check. [00:32] the whole IPF library thing was opaque, all right [00:33] they released the code very very soon after it was reverse-engineered for MESS. Coincidence? [00:33] New channel. [00:34] #floppydiscs [01:16] done [01:52] https://twitter.com/#!/textfiles/status/161262847534440449 [01:58] ShetchCow: i think megaupload will be your talk at defcon [02:08] Well, megaupload shouldn't be where I STORE my talk at defcon [02:09] I think, in fact, it was [02:09] Idea: Class action lawsuit against the DoJ by people who actually use MU for good stuff [02:09] Maybe it "odoesn't work that way" [02:10] I think I got some of the Defcon DVDs from Megaupload a while ago [02:10] so, some of your talks were actually on megaupload [02:16] ddl links aren't good when sites go down but torrents need perpetual seeders which isn't an option for joe user to handle alone. some kind of hybrid system would be nice but i don't know how a hybrid site would make its money [02:17] there are magnet links coming [02:17] nitro2k01: such a class action has been proposed [02:18] godane: magnet links still require seeders [02:18] i know [02:18] but not .torrent file needs to be hosted [02:18] godane: there are already magnet links. but people need to use them more [02:19] a 'premium account' on a hybrid ddl seeder site would need to authenticate users somehow [02:36] godane: that is why torrage.com, zoink.it exist at present [02:39] but you can always do a torrent w/ webseed [02:39] torrents have had that option for quite some time [02:43] if a person can run a torrent client to seed something rather than a webseed it would be better. people use webseeds if they already have a http serving setup, like the libreoffice people or linux distros [02:43] or some fansub/raw groups [02:45] yeah [02:45] so depending on what you are providing [02:45] a webseed is a nice option [02:45] in regards to magnets [02:45] it's only good if it's a high seed [02:45] as the time to find the hash in the DHT is a lot quicker [02:46] where a 1-2 seed torrent may take a while for DHT to be searched for the torrent meta [02:46] we have looked into DHT torrent meta hosting [02:46] but found it near impossible to accomplish [02:47] NovaKing: meta hosting for waht? [02:48] torrent meta data [03:12] NovaKing: why didn't it work [03:12] ? [03:15] well [03:15] it's a limitation of how DHT works [03:16] if we tried to load for example [03:16] all of zoink.it [03:16] hey SketchCow, you here? [03:16] whitehouse.gov's account system is fucking broken [03:16] 560gb/s roughly will need to be constantly xfer'd around the place [03:16] yipdw: broken? [03:16] NovaKing: yes [03:17] I'm looking at a screen that has both a "sign out" link and a "register new account" link [03:17] so I am both registered and not registered at the same time [03:17] did you try and sign in? [03:17] evidently they want to stop people from signing petitions via broken code [03:17] yeah, I did -- that's how you get a "sign out" link [03:18] is the "sign this petition" blue now? [03:18] at very bottom [03:18] nope [03:18] What up [03:18] maybe I need to use Windows [03:18] clear cookies [03:18] and try again [03:18] OH [03:19] I have to CLICK "Sign in" [03:19] I cannot press Enter [03:19] wtf [03:19] HAHAH [03:19] i HATE forms like that! [03:19] that is usability bullshit [03:19] SketchCow, when is that internship that you were talking about on twitter? [03:19] Whenever, when I can con someone into thinking this is awesome. [03:20] ok [03:21] Do you think there will be something still available around mid june? [03:27] whoa cool, I just got the twitter failwhale [03:41] SketchCow: are you able to check something for me? [03:56] SOmetimes. [03:59] tis ok, underscor sorted me out [04:00] SketchCow: re: your earlier RT, http://mercuric.net/tmp/thatsnotonline.png [04:01] I was amused [04:52] I think this megaupload situation is a good opportunity to evangelize people to use archive.org for stuff that's not warez [04:59] Today I had the worst a-ha moment [05:00] I realized "warez" is "wares" (rhyming with cares), not "where-rez" [05:03] ... [05:07] DFJustin: D: [05:07] get off my lawn [05:22] damnit that's my lawn [05:22] damn kids and their adverse possession [05:57] you should pronounce "warez" so that it rhymes with "Juarez" [06:15] anyone want to help me seed 4,350 SOPA news stories? [06:15] I guess I could also just toss them on archive.org [06:16] but throwing them on TPB just sounds funnier [06:52] yipdw: i'll help seed [06:53] interestingly, archive-it did a sopa collection too http://www.archive-it.org/collections/3010 [06:54] NovaKing: cool, thanks; details in msg [06:55] DFJustin: ooh, neat [06:55] DFJustin: I know people in here (me, tef, etc.) have a bunch of SOPA blackout pages too [06:56] I've shipped some to batcave but I guess I can send them to archive.org too [11:29] http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/381168_169724613127690_130468153720003_204436_2031947055_n.jpg [12:00] Give me suggestions for places with cheesy HTML backgrounds from back in the day [12:52] Ìû [15:59] i'm archiving techguylabs.com [16:44] of possible interest http://pastebin.com/ZebQjFiT [16:49] ... and Dropbox and Box are not even on the list [16:50] in this case clouds of that sort don't count [16:51] WHo compiled the lsit? You? [16:51] I just ripped it off a forum [16:57] Well, we could scour the web for public Dropbox links [16:58] why dropbox donesnt count? [16:59] because Dropbox is mostly for personal files [16:59] it's not used in the same manner as all of these other services, people mainly use it to share files to people around them and not in the masses like megaupload. [16:59] in contrast with the other services, dropbox will block public links if they get too much traffic [18:20] Morning [18:20] I just saw "Get Lamp" mentioned in Wired, so I went to order a copy, [18:20] because I enjoyed all those Infocom games back in the day... oof! $45 [18:20] for a DVD? That's too much. Take a page from the app store; you'd sell [18:20] more if you dropped the price. A movie about Zork shouldn't cost more [18:20] than Zork! [18:28] Good point, SketchCow. I'll forwrd it to SketchCow next time he's around. [18:28] Ah. It's probably a mail you received [18:30] Tell the guy to use alternative distribution methods if he's not satisfied with the price [18:34] He can not download it now that MegaUpload was closed. [18:35] hahahah [18:36] By the way, traitors, http://thepiratebay.org/search/get%20lamp/0/99/0 [18:36] Thanks captain obvious [18:36] you saved us all! [18:37] Captian Obvious: He's Just Saying What We're All Thinking!!!!!! [18:38] I'm adding episodes of the Sound Of Young America radio show while listening to a show, and while digitizing tapes on two other machines. [18:45] SketchCow: did you finish the jamendo upload and fix thingy? [18:46] I finished the upload, I have NOT finished the fix thingy. [18:46] So I estimate we have 99% [18:46] I just need to do comparisons. [18:46] k [18:46] Since it's obviously addiditve. [18:47] But they're up there, man! All the albums up to last week! [18:47] well done [18:47] Man, it MURDERED the incoming queue. :) [18:51] Uncanny valley http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6-89KO8ZgQ [18:54] hahahah [18:55] Saw the two first episodes of the show yesterday. I liked it surprisingly much. [18:55] Only in Swedish so far, though [18:55] They'd be crazy not to sell it abrod, though [18:56] Thanks for the warning. [18:56] Not a fan of horror. [18:56] the interviewed woman is a robot? [18:58] No, she's just Japanese [18:58] I agree with the comments. She's an american/swedish japanese actress speaking english with a fake japanese accent. [18:58] Which set me off to begin, actually. :) [18:59] Although the show does feature hybrids, so she may actually turn out to be a leader for the robot uprising in some future episode of the actual show [18:59] Is there a link to the show? [19:00] It was a joke. That robots video sucks, watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnzlbyTZsQY [19:00] Only in Swedish, only in Sweden (They block access from abroad) [19:00] Yeah, that always works. [19:01] What's the title in swedish. [19:01] https://rapidshare.com/files/2440991038/EP1---PG-1138016-001A-AKTAMANNISKOR-05-mp4-e-v1.mp4 [19:01] Enjoy while RS stil exists [19:01] Äkta Människor [19:03] Thanks for the link, downloading. [19:26] Äkta människor = "Real humans" for the curious [21:15] and now FileServe: http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/2012/01/more-megaupload-fallout-fileserve-shutters-file-sharing-service.ars [21:15] talk about chilling effect. [21:15] http://torrentfreak.com/cyberlocker-ecosystem-shocked-as-big-players-take-drastic-action-120123/ [22:24] http://okmij.org/ftp/Computation/sendmail-as-turing-machine.txt [22:40] hahahaha [22:40] Well, that was a delightful twittering [22:40] I just got 40 more followers [23:01] congrats on your interns SketchCow [23:01] Thanks. [23:02] I am starting to lose my grip. [23:02] I needed help. [23:02] mhm [23:04] What's your financing these days? [23:04] Two jobs + doc sales [23:04] + Kickstarter money for films [23:04] + rolling drunks [23:04] Let me know if you ever need someone to organise computer files or something [23:04] P.s. here, have a scotch [23:05] ScotchCow [23:12] Total power outage. [23:12] PatC: I need you more here. [23:12] We need to assess archiveteam projects, make sure nothing's falling by the wayside. [23:13] I'm in the process of trying to clear out batcave of data for a move. [23:13] So I'm moving through terabytes as fast as I can. [23:14] Ok [23:18] Well, i'll be free thrusday - sunday this week, just let me know what you need me to do [23:32] whoa! [23:32] http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/http://okmij.org [23:32] that is a travesty [23:32] time for a refresh [23:41] http://wayback.at.ninjawedding.org/*/http://www.forbes.com* [23:41] :D [23:42] I approve [23:42] What I REALLY want is the ones that block with robots.txt [23:42] I've got a few of those [23:43] I can't tell you which ones; my crawler gave the middle finger to robots.txt [23:43] but if you can give me some example URLs we can look [23:43] yipdw: torrent work for you? [23:43] SketchCow: btw i have a ton of stuff i wgetted back when geocities was about to die; its probably mirrors of stuff you already have, but should i send it? and to where? [23:43] SketchCow: btw, you should have all the news stories I grabbed on batcave under yipdw/sopa-news-{1,2} [23:43] including all the dupes and shit [23:43] NovaKing: I'm at work; haven't tried [23:43] I'll give it a shot in a little while [23:44] Thank you, yipdw [23:44] no problem [23:44] underscor about? [23:44] LordNlptp: Yes, I can give you a slot on batcave to rsync [23:44] wanted to see status of the zoink upload [23:45] hahahaha [23:45] I missed this [23:45] http://wayback.at.ninjawedding.org/20120120092200/http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012/01/19/truth-about-sopa/ [23:45] yipdw, did it get removed? [23:46] I dunno [23:46] I just never read that article [23:46] "Unfortunately, one of the reasons why you can’t believe everything you read about the Stop Online Piracy Act is because some critics of this bill have generated enormous profits from illegal websites that sell stolen intellectual property." [23:47] hahahaha [23:49] actually, speaking of robots.txt... [23:49] http://www.foxnews.com/robots.txt [23:49] that is one weird file [23:49] are they using the story and column_archive links as robot traps or something? [23:49] whats Sitemap: [23:50] Sitemap is a pointer to, uh, a sitemap [23:50] as defined here -> http://www.sitemaps.org/ [23:50] it can be used by robots for more efficient crawling [23:51] that is, instead of trawling through a shitload of HTML generated for human consumption, the crawler can download a collection of XML files and just pull out the links from there [23:51] so flattening the hierarchy (sort of -- Fox News' top-level Sitemap references reference more sitemaps)
