[10:57] Flex-Netw: Go away you slimey salestard [10:58] Or else we'll release the hounds [10:58] http://op-co.de/facefuck/ [11:16] ersi: They could be doing other evil stuff, say logging our nicks and spamming as us if we're away more than a month for example [11:16] shaking in my boots [11:17] Most AT channels are all logged and available online [11:52] Not sure these are AT "approved" bots since they follow into other channels and use sneaky methods (different nicks that take turns in being in the channel) [11:53] And they're in very random channels #OccupyIRC #titsorgtfo #cybersex #xxxpassworld #iphone #foundmy #BritishArmy #True-Blue [11:53] #Sumatra #phear #Skate2Create #sharktech #awknet #indoshare #49ers #ripz-Bookz #thebeatles [11:53] #gbdev #nandx #pq #france #CRAIGSLIST #turds #ps3 #majncraft #warcraft [11:54] the list goes on [12:01] meh [12:01] i dont even know what a bot is [12:01] but their lame reguarless [12:01] Their lame is lame [12:02] efnet is like those mfers only friends [12:02] why spam it [12:54] my "download 27000 comments from a facebook post" project is failing hard [12:54] the first 3000 were easy [12:54] but now [12:54] the api gives be a 500 server error more often then not [12:55] and doing it manually in a browser by clicking on more is slow and chromium is struggling at ~5500 [12:59] yeah, loading 50 more in the browser takes almost 1 minute and eats all cpu [12:59] i guess i could somehow sniff the requests and stuff but meh [12:59] * Schbirid gives up [13:02] ... [13:02] Facebook archives are plainly horrible [16:46] gowalla is closed [16:48] hmm [16:48] what was gowalla? [16:49] lol: "Download your check-ins, photos and lists here soon." [16:55] looks like hard drive prices are back down to about where they were 6 months ago [16:55] wasn't that when it spiked? [16:55] not quite, a 7k3000 is still $160 [16:55] so it's back to 400%? [16:56] it's around 200% [16:59] well, not quite all the way back, but still less than 200% [17:01] I'm seeing the same prices as before, but for 5400rpm drives instead of 7200 [17:49] http://i.qkme.me/36ckpl.jpg [17:49] i just thought it might be a fun idea to have a blog where detailed "how to mirror/backup website X" writeups were posted [17:49] for publicity and gathering interest [19:35] Schbirid: that could be cool [21:47] db48x: gowalla was a competitor with foursquare [21:47] they were bought recently by facebook [21:50] I see [21:51] how much do you want to bet that no way to export becomes available? [21:52] do you think I'm an idiot? [21:53] heh [21:54] what I don't understand is why they shut it down [21:54] if it's worth buying then it's worth running [21:56] probably bought it for the devs or designers who worked there [21:56] my money's on designers - it had a good reputation for being well done [21:56] I suppose [21:56] still doesn't explain why though [21:57] they lose whatever goodwill they've built up by doing that [21:57] I can see not selling the data to facebook [21:57] are you new to this game? facebook doesn't give a fuck. they saw that gowalla had some good employees, and the most expedient way to get them to work for facebook was to buy gowalla and shut it down. [21:58] yes, obviously [21:58] but why would those people agree to it? [21:58] $$$$$$$ [21:58] they can't have gotten that much [21:59] they had investors to pay off, etc [21:59] being acquired still pays way beyond a normal signing bonus [22:00] true enough [22:00] I guess it just doesn't make any sense to me to shutter something you've worked hard on at the drop of a hat like that [22:00] $$$$$$$ [22:01] that's SEVEN DOLLAR SIGNS. [22:01] is it exponential? [22:02] heh [22:02] if you're worth that much money to someone, then you have power. you can easily require that your users not be screwed over by the deail [22:02] deal [22:02] leave the site up, maintain it but don't develop any new features [22:03] give the existing users an easy way to move to facebook in a few months [22:04] I dunno [22:05] maybe they just didn't think to mention it [22:05] or maybe they just didn't want to jinx it [22:51] db48x: Yeah, it seems easy and all from the technical point of view - but you're missing politics, legal idiotic shit like ownership and all that in your equation [23:43] My rsync to the memac batcave is failing with 'no space left on device' -- known problem, or something on my end? [23:44] known [23:46] cool, thanks; back to moving things to bigger drives so I can use bandwidth more efficiently then :D
