[01:19] http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/05/15/icloud_outage_and_new_features/ [01:19] funny. there is speculation that icloud is going to gain some features that were in the old mobileme... [02:03] SketchCow: are the slides for the Hokum talk at ROFLcon available? popspot's version of your talk kinda suck, in that you can't really see the slides that well, if they show them at all [03:23] Agreed [03:23] Eventually [03:32] is the FortuneCity data being organized, etc? [03:40] 3http://archive.org/details/archiveteam-splinder [03:46] Downloaded: 149 files, 1.2T in 5d 11h 25m 27s (2.71 MB/s) [03:58] Swizzle: noticed you've been busy over in classicpcgames :) [04:03] https://twitter.com/#!/Angryrobotics/status/197027154352013313 [04:04] I give it a day before some balance-breaking exploit trivializes the game [04:07] Absolutely [04:07] AB SO LUTE LY [04:07] Wait wait [04:07] Writing it now. [04:07] "Gamers up in arms about ____ bug in Diablo III" [04:13] Usually not even a bug - it'll probably be some balance mismatch, given how late they were making core mechanical changes [04:54] I am overseeing someone donating a 5TB archive of scanned images. [04:54] (To Internet Archive) [04:55] What are they? 220,000 comic books going back to the 1940s, his estimate is 85% of the entire US comic production [04:56] jesus [04:56] Speaking of which... I think I'll start figuring out how to handle the IUMA archive. [04:58] That's...impressive [04:59] holy f***ing s**t [04:59] that's a LOT of comics [04:59] what quality are the scans? [05:00] LordNlptp: 22MB each comic, so, not awesome [05:01] But still, god *damn* [05:03] arent most of those copyrighted still? [05:03] All are [05:03] ALL of them are [05:03] copyright extends to however old steamboat willie is [05:04] and probably will continue to do so for the forseeable future [05:04] would be curious if they are all scans or digital copies [05:04] Aren't comic digital copies just scans in a container? [05:05] within at least the last couple of years if not longer they have been producing ebooks [05:05] Even if there are, it'll be a tiny part of the collection [05:06] cbz is zip, cbr is rar [05:06] don't use rar [05:08] Well, +1 thing not to worry about losing in the future [05:30] Yes. [05:31] I'll give you people more update as I actually encounter the data. [05:41] So, I'm speaking at a conference next week. [05:41] In Michigan, along with showing some film at a library, etc. [05:41] Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, MI [05:42] If you're an archive team member, we should hang. [05:44] See realtime coverage [05:44] TIME [05:44] Necrotizing Fasciitis [05:44] TIME [05:44] See realtime coverage [05:44] Necrotizing Fasciitis [05:44] Don't go there. [05:44] noted [05:46] mm [05:46] h [05:46] whenabouts? I might do the 2hr drive [05:53] peer does not kneel before Zod [07:04] http://archive.org/details/acewiki-20120430-remote-media-1 [07:08] http://ia601203.us.archive.org/tarview.php?tar=/11/items/acewiki-20120430-remote-media-1/acewiki-20120430-remote-media-1.tar&file=wikipedia/commons/b/b9/Hmong_women_at_Coc_Ly_market,_Sapa,_Vietnam.jpg [07:09] Fuck yeah [07:10] neat :) [07:12] http://archive.org/download/acewiki-20120430-remote-media-1/acewiki-20120430-remote-media-1.tar/wikipedia%2Fcommons%2Fb%2Fb9%2FHmong_women_at_Coc_Ly_market%2C_Sapa%2C_Vietnam.jpg is the official one. [07:12] But it renames itself. [07:17] ALL of them are <-- untrue, many pre-1964 copyrights were not renewed and thus lapsed [07:18] http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Copyright_How-To [07:20] ahhh, copyright [07:20] one of my favorite time-sucks [07:21] another is, of course, the particular brand of pseudoeconomics that hackers think they understand [07:25] LET'S TALK ABOUT COPYRIGHT [07:25] Meanwhile, someone 10x sped up JSMESS [07:25] And possibly, depending on the new thing he did, sped it up as much as 15x [07:25] you want to talk about copyright? great, your congressman is right over there --> , he can actually do something about it [07:26] As for the comics, we'll see what shows up. [07:26] http://archive.org/details/2012-04-30-wikimedia-images-snapshot meanwhile, that sucker's gonna grow and grow. [07:26] 1.3tb! [07:27] please continue to piss off the sysadmins [07:27] oh, you're splitting it into items [07:27] Oh hell yeah. [07:27] I mean, let's not be stupid. [07:28] in a perfect world, you could put that all in one item [07:28] When I started, the general rule of thumb was don't make an item bigger than 5gb [07:28] If you had to, 10gb [07:28] haaaa [07:28] symbian is 11G [07:28] Now, Brewster likes 50gb as an upper limit [07:28] Meanwhile, I've got items in there... 400gb [07:29] MIGHT AS WELL TRY [07:29] It's like watching a tugboat in a canal when they have to shift things [07:29] http://ia600609.us.archive.org/tarview.php?tar=/2/items/afwiktionary-20120430-local-media-1/afwiktionary-20120430-local-media-1.tar&file=wiktionary/af/0/01/fr%C3%83%C2%BChsommer.jpg [07:31] FrÃ¼hÅ¿ommer? [07:31] or more like http://youtube.com/watch?v=oUcS5flqqR0 [07:32] or, perhaps, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdNeaSgqcFg [07:34] crap, wrong link [07:35] http://youtube.com/watch?v=stDWNam7RtE [07:36] yeahhhhh that one [08:06] who was working on recovering corrupted gzip files a few months ago? Coderjoe ? [08:08] yes [08:08] unfortunately, all my code is on the drive that died [08:08] how ironic [08:09] I can rewrite it, but it will take a little time [08:09] I'd been meaning to do something like that anyway [08:09] aye. have you seen http://www.urbanophile.com/arenn/hacking/gzrt/gzrt.html ? [08:11] i had not. [08:11] i had written my own tools [08:15] hmm [08:15] that takes a higher level approach [08:17] my code didn't use zlib. instead, i wrote my own inflate code to check validity (though not output decompressed data, yet), and then added code to scan for a stored block, as it usually would be a good resync point, and luckilly has a reasonable signature [08:18] ahrm [08:19] that code just keeps retrying glib with an incrementing starting point until it can decompress again [08:19] er [08:19] zlib [08:20] mmm [08:20] // FIXME: errpos not correct [08:20] // FIXME: still broken yo [08:23] try { this->sleep(); } [08:24] that's a good idea [08:24] maybe I should [08:30] I've begun the process of uploading IUMA material. [08:30] First, everything not an MP3, into a big .tar file so you can download that and run tests without being choked by 800gb [09:27] Now that I'm actually, you know, playing it... K.C. Munchkin is quite the shitty game. [09:27] I move around, and go in a corner, go do some stuff, come back, nobody is paying attention. [09:29] I rather like it, I'm not sure jsmess gives you the full experience yet since it's so much slower [09:30] gameplay speeds up as you clear screens so it gets hectic pretty fast [09:30] and you can't just reuse the same pattern like pac-man because the dots move [09:31] I can't overstate how happy I am with this new optimization and watching people work over making it faster. It's an almost parental joy. [09:31] And when this really hits the archive/preservation people, they're going to flip [09:34] Hey look, it's the woman who saved Wikipedia [09:34] http://ia600305.us.archive.org/tarview.php?tar=/31/items/arwikiquote-20120430-remote-media-1/arwikiquote-20120430-remote-media-1.tar&file=wikipedia/commons/0/03/Wikimedia_Foundation_Sue_Gardner_Red_BG_Sept_2010.jpg [09:35] I actually grew up with an odysseyÂ² as my first console as a kid so it has a special place in my heart [09:35] Me, I never touched the thing. [09:35] I have one now, but I have never turned it on. [09:37] they made a sequel K.C.'s Krazy Chase which is less pac-man-like and is generally regarded as better, I haven't played it very much though since I didn't have a cart until recently [09:40] Another one I knew of. [09:40] But never really interacted with. [09:40] Emulation is not great, but I think this will be a good gateway [09:41] The people who complain about the whole idea will continue to complain. [09:45] Did you see Ian Bogost's raster filter thing? [09:45] Amazing. [09:45] The people who complain complain about THAT as well, but what a brilliant approach. [09:46] http://www.bogost.com/games/a_television_simulator.shtml [09:47] no [09:47] looks crap compared to what mooglyguy wrote for mess ;P [09:48] When did he do it? [09:49] may 2011 [09:49] And how is it activated? [09:49] Because man, MESS needs a doc overhaul. [09:50] I hope this brings the attention raining down on that side, where people want to "help" and a way to "help" is to go through the code and document like crazy [09:50] Get that Wiki back up to puffy [09:56] http://interbutt.com/postimages/dazzle_monarch.jpg [09:57] Very nice! [09:57] I wonder if the JSMESS actually can do this. [09:57] Probably, huh. [09:57] not currently [09:58] and it actually won't unless someone rewrites it to GLSL, since it uses HLSL which is windows-only [10:00] to use it you set hlsl_enable to 1 in mess.ini and then tweak a whole bunch of knobs, sample settings can be found at http://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=69832#Post69832 [10:01] I'm having this amazing thought. [10:01] Which is that me interfacing at all with Mooglyguy over the conversion/modification of his code would be a really bad idea. [10:03] So, is the MESS wiki just hoping to find some snapshots of the old wiki and replace them? [10:04] basically; people have some pages rescued but I don't think all of them have gone up yet for whatever reason (probably time) [10:06] OK, I'll hold off, plenty other stuff to do [10:06] sigh, making a project wikipage is a pain in the butt [10:20] Alright, created a very basic and super cruddy text of a new project - http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Resedagboken [10:21] Let's get some more foreign archival action goin' again ^_^ [10:30] hmmm [10:30] has anyone taken the macme script and made a "generic" script from it? [10:31] or can that not work for some reason I'm not understanding? [10:31] That's alard's baby [10:32] http://archive.org/details/iuma-skeleton [10:32] Wheeee [10:32] It's now uploading the 9gb .tar [10:34] SmileyG: How do you mean, "not work for some reason"? [10:34] not work for what? [10:35] for grabbing another site by simply keying in some random url... [10:35] it got used for FortuneCity sort of as well [10:35] ersi: yah, except I personally don't know how to modify it (tbh I've not looked at it) - wondering if its quite simple. [10:41] i suggest looking at it, it's open and available :P [10:46] http://archive.org/details/iuma-archive begins [10:50] ok so seesaw seems pretty adaptable.. [10:57] http://archive.org/details/iuma-skeleton [11:27] YES HELLO [11:28] I HEAR MY ESCAPADES WERE BEING DISCUSSED i knew i forgot the nda OH WELL LIVE AND LEARN [11:31] I have like 400GB of torrents from the global DHT [11:31] it's quite insane [11:32] I think we should back them up :D [11:32] (they reference somewhere around 4PB of data) [11:32] after deduping exact file names [11:34] hhahahahaha [11:34] Going to Brewster with "we need to backup 4pb of data" [11:34] "Clear some room" [11:34] rm -rf ia* [11:35] hahaha [11:35] I mean, it's a good reason to double our capacity! [11:40] Sorry I've been absent, I've been really busy with women and getting laid^W^W^W^Wgraduation and final exams [11:42] * BlueMax wonders if underscor really could get laid [11:42] only if I remember to bring the chloroform [11:44] laiduation [11:44] :D [11:44] Prom was last friday too [11:45] so I've been recovering all weekend [11:45] Did you have any oral exams? >_> [11:45] :D [11:45] Not yet [11:45] I have an oral for comparitive government though [11:47] We no speak Huttese [11:47] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KVzyOGCSao [11:47] He's actually speaking in that made-up language from the series! [11:48] And by speaking, I mean singing! [11:48] hahaha [11:51] * SketchCow replaces underscor with Vader in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvafvTnji-Y&t=0m42s and makes a million dollars [11:52] :D [12:15] And now at 8am I'm searching for a plug. [12:26] like, an outlet? [12:34] No, the power supply for my m-audio fasttrack pro [12:52] Someone has finally made a simulator of yahoo! infrastructure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueP-sPcgooI&t=0m55s [13:20] lol [14:36] Can't spend more time on it this second, but http://archive.org/details/iuma-thanks_mr_brown [14:52] and SketchCow continues to not sleep [14:52] amazing [16:04] SketchCow: https://law.resource.org/pub/us/cfr/ needs to be mirrored [17:23] getting an error when trying to create an account on the wiki [17:25] SmileyG: re: adaptation of seesaw -- probably not, unless you're crawling every page on every site, which is liable to get your crawler stuck or banned [17:25] the basic upload/download idea can be used on other projects, though [17:25] ffnet-grab does that [17:26] (except in Python, but whatever, same idea) [17:26] I guess if you switched from wget-warc to Heritrix, that might help [17:31] I have a backup of Thingiverse.com here, comes in at 6gb zipped [17:31] neat! [17:33] made in late 2011, so now I'm gonna rewrite my script to handle the new layout and put in some logic for adding new stuff to the backup [17:34] perhaps someone would like to join me in backing up all the 3d models out there [18:23] Alright, time to ponder how to archive resedagboken.se I guess >_< [18:24] http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Resedagboken if anyone's interested, I created a project page [18:59] punkman: we did one http://archive.org/details/thingiverse-20110829 [18:59] having someone keep it up to date would be awesome though [19:00] lightbox.com is shutting down on June 15 http://blog.lightbox.com/post/23107101360/lightbox-is-joining-facebook [19:00] DFJustin: keeping it up to date was my original goal, as well as grabbing all the "bad" things that are eventually deleted [19:01] I also have a list of similar websites that I'd like to add to my collection: http://punkmanufacturing.com/wiki/3d-design-libraries [19:04] https://thepiratebay.se/browse/605 [19:08] DFJustin: does the backup on archive.org have metadata for each thing, or is it just the files? [19:10] never mind, I see now [19:51] Oh, angelic choir! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX1kHtztgkI [23:12] Other people are catching onto the Flickr's gonna die idea: http://gizmodo.com/5910223/how-yahoo-killed-flickr-and-lost-the-internet [23:12] Best quote from the article: If the Internet really were a series of tubes, Yahoo would be the leaking sewage pipe, covering everything it comes in contact with in watered-down shit. [23:13] delicious [23:13] errrr [23:13] yeah [23:13] that sounds del.icio.us. [23:14] speaking of delicious, did you see their spam problem recently? People were ending up with spam links posted to their accounts: http://t.co/EMqHSA5B [23:15] yuuuup [23:15] the joys of federated auth [23:16] the IUMA upload is going along well. [23:16] Thousands of songs! [23:16] woohoo! [23:16] song of songs [23:18] When Flickr's death notice goes up, it'll be Armageddon. And AT will be as gods. [23:19] (is FlickrFckr ready to fire, when it does?) [23:21] Vaguely. [23:24] http://www.flickr.com/photos/punimoe/ [23:25] 736,024 items, say ~3 MB each. 2 TB of cosplay photos right there.
