[05:27] * SketchCow rides around town with the girl you love [05:31] HEY! How did you steal my JPGs' hearts? [05:34] mmm [05:35] I just read the text of Rick Prelinger's Orphan Works symposium talk... he was doing quite well, until the end.. [05:35] "And finally, when we apply remedies, let's do it homeopathically, in ways that allow us to back off if the solution turns out to be worse than the problem." [05:36] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GgQWKpsKsU [05:38] Coderjoe: Link? [05:39] https://twitter.com/#!/footage/status/192407962130714624 [05:39] Thanks [05:47] The idea of a registry of orphan works strikes me as particularly odd, given the scope of corpus and how works fall orphan *because* there's no claim to register [05:48] And I can't envision any reasonable solution being worse than the current problem, which is "use nothing in case you get hit with six-figure claims" [06:28] I just watched an interesting TED about how porn is ruining males [06:28] s/porn/internet porn/ [06:29] and our whole generation is pretty fucked, as far as the generation after ours [06:29] as far as us creating it* [06:33] Interesting stance to take. [06:33] ehh we could probably do with a few less people around [06:36] http://www.ted.com/talks/zimchallenge.html [06:36] Boys are 30 percent more likely than girls to drop out of school. In Canada, five boys drop out for every three girls. Girls outperform boys now at every level, from elementary school to graduate school. [06:48] underscor: not a fan of his "quitting porn cured my cancer" ancedotes [06:48] heh [07:17] Zod__: perhaps he also used a homeopathic cancer remedy... [07:23] underscor: somewhat related: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-A8GvUehq4 [13:24] Morning! [13:34] morning! [13:37] Blew some DNA Lounge music up, waiting for more to finish downloading. [13:37] 15k/s download speed does not lead to love. [13:44] http://www.nyu.edu/tisch/preservation/news_2012/preservation-week.png [13:47] so you'll be there to promote archive team as well? [13:50] I'll be there for an hour and a half or so. [13:50] I don't know if there's much archive team to promote there, frankly. [13:50] Man, can't believe it's a .png [13:50] whattt, 15k/s? [13:51] The system that lets me download DNA Lounge items is very very slow. [13:51] :[ [13:51] ] 247,382,016 16.0K/s eta 2h 6m [13:52] so they cap? [13:53] multiple downloads? [13:53] It's a t1 [13:53] It does a lot. [13:53] i meant can you pull multiple files at the same time [13:54] I haven't totally automated it. [13:54] I mean, what does it matter if an automated item takes 4 hours versus 2? [13:54] Once I'm done, we'll have DNA Lounge automatically upload with a roughly 2 day lag. [13:54] (It takes a while for the machine to generate the previous day's MP3. [14:02] Back to emptying batcave. [14:02] From the high of 27tb, it's down to 8.3tb [14:13] At the Tribeca Film Festival, I watched a documentary on a chinese blogger who had been harassed for years, who posts stuff on his blog, knowing it's erased. He's in taiwan these days. [14:14] I walked up to him, gave him my card, said free hosting at archive.org. He was very happy. [14:14] nice. [14:14] He has a pile of other bloggers he wants to be able to upload with [14:16] what was the name of the documentary? [14:18] High Tech Low Life [14:18] https://twitter.com/#!/hightechfilm [14:21] 286G b [14:21] 126G l [14:21] 168G c [14:21] 168G d [14:21] 217G j [14:21] 184G m [14:21] 179G r [14:21] 179G s [14:22] 157G t [14:22] The last of the old-location mobileme sets. [14:41] SketchCow: I have friendster, anyhub, and splinder for you. Can I please get an rsync slot on fos? [14:42] Aw jesus [14:42] IT NEVER ENDS WITH YOU [14:43] and that's why you love me [14:44] If you want the DEFCON filming job, it's yours. [14:44] But in the next two days, you need to convince your parents you can be flown to Las Vegas for 4 days [14:44] waaaa, really?!?!?!?! :O [14:44] fjkdslfjdsklfjesklfjds [14:44] :D [14:44] Yeah, but good luck with the convincing. [14:45] that includes con entry, right? or do I need to cover that too? [14:46] That includes flight, hotel, ticket [14:46] oh wow [14:46] someone else had some splinder left [14:46] hell, for that, I'll just drug them and lock them in a closet [14:46] they'll NEVER know :D [14:47] Great plan [14:47] Also, leave that on a my little pony notepad in your room [14:47] 1. Drug Parents [14:47] 2. (unintelligible) [14:47] 3. Las Vegas [14:47] At least then we can hear about the "Brony Massacre" [14:48] Actually, I've been discussing (with bk) being at the archive this (whole) summer, so that would make it even easier [14:48] BRONY EXPRESS: Sicko Parent-Drugging Teen Gets Fast-Tracked to Prison [14:48] hahahahaha [14:48] Parties in Vegas While Parents Suffocate [14:49] Indentifies himself as Rainbow Dash [14:49] Hacker Teen writes malware, parties; Parents suffocate [14:49] There's no party here for you [14:49] It's hard-core filming for days [14:49] Well, hard-core scheduling [14:49] although if you end up in a room with a stripper, who am I to judge [14:50] hahahaha [14:50] is it a problem if my filming experience is limited, or will there be a little introduction [14:50] Yes [14:50] ... [14:50] In the same way the marines give you a little introduction [14:51] oh, the best kind [14:51] We had to go do a JROTC drill as part of some thing [14:51] man, those guys are HARDLINERS [14:54] You can thank Rachel, she convinced me to give you a chance. [14:54] But don't mess it up. Get the permission [14:54] I will work my magic to the best of my abilities [14:54] Magic == chloroform [14:54] Also, that's nice! I didn't know she knew about me [14:55] You think my fiancee doesn't know my business? [14:55] She's what SOFTENS ME UP on you bastards [14:55] This is me SOFTENED UP [14:55] hahahaha [14:55] No, I just didn't know she knew about me specifically and wanting to do the thing [14:58] Rachel is co-producer of this documentary. [14:58] Not to whatever, but she and I were hanging out with Morgan Spurlock and his producers, discussing how they did the comic-con movie. [14:58] Got some good tips. [14:58] ok i'm having flashbacks to the video of defcon.... 7? which i watched yesterday [14:59] how adam savage screwed up making part of the set for someone who was filming. [14:59] SketchCow: oh, wow! 's very cool [15:00] Yes [15:00] It was NOT u7 [15:00] 7 [15:00] I think it was 18 or 19. [15:00] Likely 18 [15:04] http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2012/04/prince-of-persia-source-code/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Gamelife+%28Blog+-+Game%7CLife%29&pid=2480#comment-504257540 [15:12] "As it turns out, you take it out of its case and wash it in the sink with Joy dish soap. This process makes Jason Scott, software preservationist, cringe." [15:12] haha, nice [15:13] my favourite trick is to manually put pressure on the read head when dumping a disk [15:13] has worked in a few cases [15:18] i wonder if freezing floppies works :P [15:22] WHERE IS MY HUG [15:26] Next, an awful lot of friendster. [15:27] Ymgve: why not rubbing alcohol? [15:27] SketchCow: also they didn't fix the Kryoflux reference O_O [15:28] just pointing it out, that's all [15:28] balrog_: rubbing alcohol don't work when there's physical dents in the disk [15:28] Ymgve: then neither will soap and water [15:29] balrog_: but forcing the drive head closer to the surface actually might work [15:30] I don't know why Tony used dish soap [15:30] rubbing alcohol is harsher against the magnetic media, maybe? [15:32] As they say in the brain surgery business: WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPS [15:32] With the reboot of fortress, I didn't turn on the thing that goes through the mobileme collection and splits it up for later TARring and puts it in the right directory. [15:33] I WONDERED why the drive was at 70 percent. [15:33] Wow, look at it go. [15:33] I know you can't, I'm saying it anyway. [15:34] Imagine you threw a ham-eating machine into a Lake Michigan-sized pile of ham [15:43] OK, the mobileme is chugging along, the mobileme legacy stuff on batcave is going up, and I've begun backfilling friendster. [15:52] SketchCow: Initial response was moderately favorable, which is *excellent* news [15:52] :D [16:08] later: underscor floating face down in bellagio fountain while "time to say goodbye" blasting [16:09] hahahaha [16:09] I just got a usb3 interface for this computer [16:09] fuck it's fast [16:10] just as fast as eSATA for regular drives [16:10] and with 100000 less hassle [16:10] now to buy some of those empty enclosures from the archive [16:10] SketchCow: are they still selling them? or only to people who want all 700 [16:12] underscor, how are they like? [16:12] Nemo_bis: what do you mean? [16:13] underscor, what interface, size, PSU etc. [16:13] ah, they're usb2/3, 3.5", regular wall wart [16:14] The brain part is easily removable from the box part [16:14] so if you disconnect the interface "module", you have a perfect horizontal dock [16:17] alard: what do we do for these? [16:18] rsync: link_stat "/2/splinder-grab/data/it/^/^E/^EL/^ELISINA^" failed: No such file or directory (2) [16:18] rsync: link_stat "/2/splinder-grab/data/it/^/^b/^bA/^bAmBi^" failed: No such file or directory (2) [16:18] rsync: link_stat "/2/splinder-grab/data/it/^/^r/^ra/^raggifatati^" failed: No such file or directory (2) [16:18] sending incremental file list [16:21] also [16:21] rsync: link_stat "/2/splinder-grab/data/it/_/_M/_Ma/*MareCheBrilla*" failed: No such file or directory (2) [16:21] rsync: link_stat "/2/splinder-grab/data/it/_/_k/_ka/*karamella*" failed: No such file or directory (2) [16:21] rsync: link_stat "/2/splinder-grab/data/it/a/al/al_/al(i)ena" failed: No such file or directory (2) [16:33] underscor, they've never been fixed [16:33] oh :( [16:33] some downloaders uploaded them by hand by fixing the filenames rsync looked for [16:34] or renaming the directories with \ [16:34] this is perhaps what you could do, rename those dirs [17:18] http://www.parodius.com/ shutting down [17:20] Geeze. That's the end of an era. [17:20] Thanks for the heads up Angantyr [17:25] underscor, ping [18:52] Anyone want to get to mirroring parodius? [18:59] Also, I'm about to write something for DNA Lounge that fixes the HTML of the site. [18:59] Of the entries for the nights, I mean. [19:00] Example: http://archive.org/details/DNALOUNGE-2011-04-16 is a mess. [19:14] Finished. [19:18] http://archive.org/details/DNALOUNGE-2011-04-16 is MUCH nicer now [19:33] Is there an elegant way to point wget at http://*.parodius.com? [19:37] * SmileyG is interested in how on earth you'd manage that :S [19:38] unless you have a list of subdomains somehow. [19:38] I ended up dumping what was listed on the homepage into a file and grabbing those now [19:39] Feels good to dust off my Solaris box again for something [19:39] bit of bash would work with a list... [19:39] for $x in at file; do wget $x; done :D [19:39] SmileyG: That's built-in to wget [19:40] :o [19:43] not only is it built in to wget, but it runs faster if you let wget do its thing [19:50] Is there any reasonable way to check for sites not listed on the front page? [19:51] https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=site%3Aparodius.com [19:51] shit nesdev is on there I forgot about that [19:51] Got it [19:53] nestdev has an ftp mirror [19:53] so don't wget it [19:53] uhh [19:53] FTP may be a problem :/ [19:53] also you guys should contact parodius [19:59] Nemo_bis: pong [20:01] Hm, a few "hello world" pages were left over; guess that's more or less everything interesting [20:01] Not counting FTP/mail/etc [20:03] underscor, reping [20:03] Nemo_bis: pong [20:03] code.google.com/p/wikiteam/source/browse/trunk/uploader.py [20:03] underscor, :) [20:04] maybe you can help emijp a bit [20:04] I'll take a look [20:04] one sec [20:04] This is p neat [20:04] http://thelistserve.com/ [20:08] Nemo_bis: That looks really good! [20:08] Was there something specific that has issues? [20:10] http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/399085_219053178203047_184148621693503_376474_1162316185_n.jpg [20:11] underscor, it's not complete [20:11] just a stub [20:11] oh, yeah, I see that. I thought you were saying there's something specifically he was having trouble with [20:12] my python-fu is not very good [20:13] aww [20:19] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lopado%C2%ADtemacho%C2%ADselacho%C2%ADgaleo%C2%ADkranio%C2%ADleipsano%C2%ADdrim%C2%ADhypo%C2%ADtrimmato%C2%ADsilphio%C2%ADparao%C2%ADmelito%C2%ADkatakechy%C2%ADmeno%C2%ADkichl%C2%ADepi%C2%ADkossypho%C2%ADphatto%C2%ADperister%C2%ADalektryon%C2%ADopte%C2%ADkephallio%C2%ADkigklo%C2%ADpeleio%C2%ADlagoio%C2%ADsiraio%C2%ADbaphe%C2%ADtragano%C2%ADpterygon [20:22] not as bad as http://www.sarahmcculloch.com/luminaryuprise/longest-word.php [20:33] underscor, only because MediaWiki has a title length limit I guess [20:34] and with proteins it's way too easy; is that protein quoted by Aristophanes too? :) [20:51] SketchCow: nice pic in Wired, hehe [21:51] Hi, everybody. [21:51] I've hit a problem on the MobileMe backup. [21:54] I'm going to double-check my connection. [22:15] Once I get Parodius' HTTP stuff down, what's the procedure for sending it in? [22:19] rsync somewhere on fos.textfiles.com? [23:08] do you guys have atari 2600 manuals [23:10] Scanned or hard copy? [23:28] Is there a good way to report problematic items? [23:34] Well, it looks like this is being archived, so I'll leave a note here: [23:35] I'm working on the MobileMe backup, and I found a problematic item, swampyhatto. [23:36] There's a recursive loop happening with multiple slashes - / -> // -> /// etc. [23:37] wget would normally avoid re-fetching with timestamping - -N [23:37] But wget-warc has that option disabled. [23:40] I think it's disabled to avoid seeking within warc files, but that's not relevant or useful here, with the files all sorted out for mirroring.
