05:15 🔗 SketchCow It was just announced yesterday
05:15 🔗 SketchCow And it totally exploded through Tabblo
05:15 🔗 SketchCow A nice debut
05:15 🔗 dnova I'll fire it up in a few mins to have a look
05:34 🔗 arrith are the instructions for how the ArchiveTeam Warrior VM image is created posted somewhere?
05:34 🔗 dnova yeah there are tutorials on oracle's site someplace
05:35 🔗 dnova (the virtualbox documentation)
05:36 🔗 arrith well i mean specifically the AT W one, since i'm curious about what tweaks it has
05:36 🔗 dnova oh. I don't know much about it yet
05:36 🔗 underscor bad news
05:36 🔗 underscor I was banned from fileplanet
05:36 🔗 underscor D:
05:37 🔗 dnova you're a bad seed, underscor
05:37 🔗 underscor I know :(
05:37 🔗 chronomex and yet he's a good apple
05:37 🔗 underscor Apparently I downloaded too fast
05:38 🔗 underscor hmm
05:38 🔗 underscor actually...
05:38 🔗 underscor does this 403 for any of you?
05:38 🔗 underscor http://m2x12.fileplanet.com/%5E229657417/ftp1/092011/BF3_99Problems_1080p60_Web_AudioFina_20Mbit.mov
05:38 🔗 dnova 404 in my case
05:39 🔗 chronomex 403 for me
05:40 🔗 underscor firefox says 404
05:40 🔗 underscor but it's a weird 404 page
05:40 🔗 underscor wget says 403
05:40 🔗 dnova agreed
05:40 🔗 chronomex wget says 403, yes
05:40 🔗 underscor I wonder if it's the %5E
05:40 🔗 chronomex I get a soft 403 in opera\
05:40 🔗 underscor soft?
05:40 🔗 chronomex Referral Denied You don't have permission to access "http://download.direct2drive.com/ftp1/092011/BF3_99Problems_1080p60_Web_AudioFina_20Mbit.mov?" on this server.

05:40 🔗 arrith says 403
05:40 🔗 chronomex is a page that is delivered as a downloadable file
05:41 🔗 chronomex well, it might be a hard 403, I'm not sure
05:45 🔗 underscor harrumph
05:45 🔗 underscor I wonder if it's schibirid's scripts then
05:46 🔗 arrith that link may have expired
05:46 🔗 arrith iirc fileplanet is one of those pre-DDL sites that makes people jump through tons of hoops and 'wait in line' for DLs, so links would be user-specific
05:48 🔗 Coderjoe it was
05:49 🔗 underscor oops
05:49 🔗 underscor didn't realize there was a channel
05:51 🔗 underscor hah
05:51 🔗 underscor I didn't know IA archived xvideos
05:51 🔗 underscor http://archive.org/details/xvideos.com-20120511-234516
05:51 🔗 underscor that's neat
05:51 🔗 chronomex huh
05:52 🔗 chronomex the collection gives a 500 error
05:52 🔗 chronomex are you sure you're supposed to post that? ;)
05:53 🔗 Coderjoe it isn't terribly well hidden. you just have to look at the work queue ("where am I in line?") to find them
05:53 🔗 chronomex aye
05:53 🔗 Coderjoe (even without any admin powers)
05:53 🔗 underscor I found it while not logged in actually
05:54 🔗 underscor so I guess it's okay
05:54 🔗 underscor lol
05:54 🔗 dnova who made the warrior appliance?
05:54 🔗 underscor alard afaik
05:54 🔗 Coderjoe alard
05:54 🔗 dnova thanks
05:54 🔗 Coderjoe he's one busy grad student. I wonder when he finds time to study
05:55 🔗 underscor http://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3Axvideos.com&sort=-publicdate
05:55 🔗 underscor Does that return results for you guys?
05:55 🔗 Coderjoe yes. I'm logged in, however
05:55 🔗 arrith i'm not logged in and yes it does
05:57 🔗 underscor okay, good
05:57 🔗 underscor then I'm safe
05:57 🔗 underscor lol
05:58 🔗 underscor Well, I mean, like I said, I found it not logged in
05:58 🔗 underscor But still
05:58 🔗 arrith your IP is being targeted with gifts of secret data
05:59 🔗 DFJustin I was bored and tried to figure out how much pr0n is on IA the other day, came up with 20.9tb just for the top domain crawls
06:00 🔗 DFJustin there's also youporn.com, redtube.com, pornhub.com, and some smaller ones in there
06:02 🔗 underscor wow
06:02 🔗 underscor I guess I'll not run out of porn while I'm in office
06:02 🔗 arrith they better do xhamster.. and hm, they *kind of* do, very few results: http://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3Axhamster.com&sort=-publicdate
06:02 🔗 DFJustin I dunno if it's actually grabbing the videos or just a shitload of thumbnails, I guess the stuff in there is just automated due to being on alexa or w/e
06:03 🔗 underscor ironically enough, one of my projects is to figure out a way to inject a collection of 1920s through 1940s erotica that was donated
06:03 🔗 underscor that'll be interesting to work on
06:03 🔗 underscor "no, I wasn't watching porn on the job, it was quality control!"
06:03 🔗 DFJustin yeah they don't really seem geared for photo collections currently
06:04 🔗 underscor we should archive porn websites as an AT project
06:04 🔗 underscor that's a lot of cultural ephermera right there
06:04 🔗 * underscor snickers
06:04 🔗 arrith could do some fancy video deduplication, since a lot are probably duplicates
06:04 🔗 underscor presuambly
06:05 🔗 underscor too bad there's no acoustid for video
06:05 🔗 underscor acoustID*
06:05 🔗 arrith there are more people that collect music than videos i guess
06:05 🔗 DFJustin usenet would probably be the low-hanging fruit there
06:06 🔗 arrith collecting music videos might be similar enough to get a project rolling
06:06 🔗 Coderjoe there are some video fingerprinting things that look promising... but expensive
06:07 🔗 Coderjoe (i've been looking for some way to help me find duplicates that are encoded differently in a collection of fan-made video content)
06:09 🔗 underscor fuzzy matching would be nice too
06:09 🔗 underscor like, detect things like the same video but with a watermark, etc
06:09 🔗 underscor (of course, difficult to do, but cool in theory)
06:13 🔗 Nemo_bis can someone move this to the splinder collection? http://archive.org/details/splinder-users
06:16 🔗 arrith something that compares videos 'visually', as in based on images rather than codec-specific stuff, so basically codec-independent stuff
06:18 🔗 underscor yeah
06:19 🔗 underscor so, I was thinking about school this fall
06:19 🔗 underscor I only need to find a thousand people willing to loan me $10
06:19 🔗 underscor and I'll be home free
06:19 🔗 underscor lol
06:20 🔗 Coderjoe kickstarter!
06:20 🔗 underscor I know, I was thinking about that
06:20 🔗 underscor But I don't know how I'd "reward"
06:20 🔗 arrith underscor: there are! they are tax payers, and they fund freddir mac / fannie mae student loans.
06:20 🔗 Coderjoe "Send Alex to college for one year"
06:20 🔗 arrith 10k tax payers -> student loan -> profit
06:21 🔗 underscor yeah, but I'd rather go straight to the tax payers
06:21 🔗 underscor lol
06:21 🔗 underscor especially since I only qualified for $4k of fed money
06:21 🔗 Coderjoe s/profit/crushing student loan debt that haunts you for years/
06:22 🔗 underscor I've got it. Print 10,000 business cards explaining the deal, and pass them out to everyone I meet at defcon. slip them into pockets, scatter them on tables, etc
06:22 🔗 underscor achieve a 10% hit ratio
06:22 🔗 underscor ???
06:22 🔗 underscor profit
06:22 🔗 underscor hahaha
06:23 🔗 arrith exactly. your startup to fund your schooling is moving too fast to find a business model.
06:23 🔗 arrith let the company that acquires you figure that part out
06:23 🔗 chronomex lots of users -> ??? -> success
06:24 🔗 chronomex I went to sxsw, I know this scam
06:24 🔗 underscor hey, if that crazy video game guy can get over $10k in pledges
06:24 🔗 chronomex stayed with some guys who were pulling it
06:24 🔗 underscor >:D
06:24 🔗 chronomex well, they were too clueless to pull it
06:24 🔗 SketchCow I just realized the warrior downloads and uploads at the same time.
06:24 🔗 chronomex but they were trying
06:24 🔗 SketchCow It doesn't yank, then upload, then yank
06:24 🔗 SketchCow It takes the entire pipe to lunch 24/7
06:24 🔗 chronomex excellent to hear, SketchCow
06:24 🔗 underscor ha
06:25 🔗 SketchCow chronomex:
06:25 🔗 underscor chronomex: but this is for a ~good cause~
06:25 🔗 underscor ;D
06:25 🔗 SketchCow I need you to take my entire pipe and yank, then upload, then yank
06:25 🔗 arrith i hope it's not limited by upstream, like it downloads as fast as it can, then uploads as fast as it can, and if it can't upload fast enough it writes to disk
06:25 🔗 chronomex SketchCow: hi
06:25 🔗 underscor hot
06:25 🔗 * arrith riffs
06:25 🔗 underscor that sounds like a jerkcity quote
06:26 🔗 Coderjoe sounds dirty
06:26 🔗 underscor chronomex: what were they trying to pull?
06:26 🔗 arrith alard: when/if you have a chance, putting the scripts to use to generate the vm image onto github or someplace would be neat. i'm curious if i can get the image smaller
06:27 🔗 chronomex make a thing that doesn't fill a need or have a way to collect money -> pimp it out -> get ten thousand users -> ??? -> now you are a successful company
06:27 🔗 underscor ah
06:28 🔗 underscor help me think of things people could get in return for sending me to school
06:28 🔗 underscor >:I
06:28 🔗 chronomex they could talk to you on the phone for a half hour about philosophy
06:28 🔗 arrith instagram something something
06:28 🔗 chronomex you could smoke a joint with them
06:28 🔗 arrith it really sucks being a poor student, as a poor student i know this
06:28 🔗 chronomex ummm i'm trying to think of things that don't cost you money
06:29 🔗 arrith gotta spend money to make money
06:29 🔗 chronomex I'm a former poor student
06:29 🔗 underscor hahaha
06:29 🔗 underscor <chronomex> you could smoke a joint with them
06:29 🔗 chronomex their joint, of course
06:29 🔗 underscor hahaha
06:29 🔗 chronomex you don't have money for drugs
06:29 🔗 chronomex wouldn't want to spend your college tuition on drugs
06:29 🔗 underscor of course
06:29 🔗 chronomex then you'd never learn whatever it is that the state wants you to know
06:29 🔗 underscor beep beep I am a state learned robot
06:30 🔗 chronomex goddamnit stupid dj, release this damn cd already, I want to buy it
06:30 🔗 arrith btw jury nullification is a thing
06:30 🔗 arrith and something like 90% of stuff doesn't go to trial, all goes through plea bargains
06:30 🔗 chronomex arrith: yes, but don't say that until they've already moved on fromthe throwing people off the jury stage
06:30 🔗 arrith chronomex: yeah definitely
06:31 🔗 arrith although, if you want to get kicked off
06:31 🔗 chronomex tru
06:31 🔗 arrith either way i'd want to print up a bunch of pamphlets on it
06:31 🔗 arrith poison the jury
06:31 🔗 arrith poison them all ahaha
06:31 🔗 chronomex hahaha
06:31 🔗 chronomex just put them out in the lobby of the courthouse every day
06:31 🔗 underscor there should be a website to crowdfund education
06:31 🔗 arrith haha
06:31 🔗 underscor that would be interesting
06:31 🔗 arrith don't let anyone in the courthouse without a 20second rant on jury nullification
06:31 🔗 chronomex like larouchites
06:32 🔗 arrith underscor: wikibooks kinda
06:32 🔗 underscor I meant more in the sense of having a thing where like family members or something could drop in some money
06:33 🔗 underscor sort of like a targeted kickstarter or something
06:33 🔗 underscor I dunno
06:33 🔗 underscor Don't mind me, just thinking aloud
06:33 🔗 chronomex don't use kickstarter, use indiegogo because you can keep all the money regardless of whether you hit the goal
06:34 🔗 arrith for raising money from a group iirc WePay is supposed to be good, at least compared to paypal
06:35 🔗 SketchCow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGcApe6_HdI&feature=youtu.be
06:37 🔗 arrith SketchCow: i saw him on this coin operated show on the history channel when i was flipping channels for the first time in like a year or two
06:51 🔗 godane SketchCow: http://archive.org/details/GBTV_09_12__16_2011
06:51 🔗 godane first week of gbtv
06:52 🔗 godane 10 hours of video right there
06:56 🔗 underscor I got first place in my networking project today
06:56 🔗 underscor that was p exciting
06:57 🔗 arrith underscor: what was the project?
06:57 🔗 arrith getting 50 business cards out first
06:58 🔗 underscor FilmCompany recently bought a new building, and we had to do a proposal for end to end network design, installation, maintanence, security, policies, etc
06:58 🔗 underscor it ended up being like 115 letter pages
06:58 🔗 underscor we presented to judges today, from different places
06:59 🔗 underscor high up network engineers from AT&T and Verizon, head prof from the networking program at GMU, high up cisco technical guy
06:59 🔗 underscor and then some more "marketing/businessey" people
07:00 🔗 Coderjoe haha
07:02 🔗 Coderjoe watching some of John Romero's doom development video footage. watching a playtest of E1M2 where the sound effects weren't made yet, so some of the SNES wolf 3d sounds are there
07:36 🔗 SketchCow I think I just quit being GDC's archivist. I feel terrible.
07:36 🔗 chronomex now why would you do a think like that
07:36 🔗 SketchCow Because in three months, I have not produced a single .flv for their vault.
07:36 🔗 chronomex </stepford-wife>
07:36 🔗 SketchCow Oh, make no mistake, I've fucking TRIED
07:37 🔗 SketchCow Like, 99% of my stress this past three months? Vault.
07:37 🔗 chronomex is flv just hard to make?
07:37 🔗 SketchCow Taking .AVI files and turning them into .flv files? All my stress.
07:37 🔗 SketchCow I was able to do it for a while!
07:37 🔗 chronomex hrm.
07:37 🔗 SketchCow But now I can't.
07:37 🔗 SketchCow And I'm sick of it.
07:37 🔗 Coderjoe flv for a vault? ew.
07:37 🔗 chronomex ^
07:37 🔗 SketchCow They're getting fucked, and I'm way too busy.
07:38 🔗 SketchCow I was doing it primarily to supplement income. And I kind of will really, really be financially strapped if I do this.
07:38 🔗 SketchCow But I don't think I can take it.
07:38 🔗 SketchCow I'm tired of missing deadlines and promises with those people.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow Here's an example.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow Tomorrow, I am to go to NY to spend time with the lady.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow Flight on Sunday, to CA, for a week.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow Am I packing? No.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow Am I making sure I have stuff? No.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow Am I ensuring I am answering e-mail?
07:39 🔗 SketchCow No.
07:39 🔗 SketchCow No, I just wasted another hour trying to get the dying laptop to render an .flv
07:39 🔗 arrith you should do the opposite of that
07:40 🔗 SketchCow an .flv that doesn't wokr.
07:40 🔗 arrith video encoding is such dark magic i don't even know
07:40 🔗 arrith re-encoding is another thing even
07:40 🔗 arrith upload to youtube -> download from youtube. done, converted. ;/
07:40 🔗 alard arrith: ArchiveTeam Warrior scripts? What scripts? I just made a VM by hand. :) Log in (Alt+F2) and see if you can make it smaller.
07:41 🔗 SketchCow I just wrote them a letter.
07:41 🔗 SketchCow It said, basically:
07:41 🔗 patrickg flv sounds like a disease :-/
07:41 🔗 SketchCow - Let me work on this on my spare time, no pay
07:41 🔗 SketchCow - Or I give up, you get the drives with the stuff and the tapes
07:41 🔗 SketchCow But they wanted X videos a week
07:41 🔗 SketchCow And I can't get a single video to render.
07:42 🔗 arrith alard: nnnnooo. i was afraid you did that. you have to do it all fancy where a script fires up virtualbox, attaches a distro iso, then runs a preseed install, or the equiv. hm.
07:42 🔗 SketchCow Literally, this is all my stress, this side job.
07:42 🔗 alard arrith: That would be cool, but I don't know how to do that and didn't really want to learn. So go ahead. :)
07:42 🔗 SketchCow But I think the worst part is that this was a leg up, a favor from a buddy, who worked there
07:42 🔗 SketchCow And now he looks like a tard for hiring this flustered excuse machine
07:43 🔗 SketchCow I feel like one of those people, those addicts you give simple jobs to and they come back with excuses.
07:43 🔗 Coderjoe arrith: um... that sounds incredibly non-portable
07:43 🔗 patrickg SketchCow: so the basic issue is that you don't know the recoding process - once that works, everything's smooth?
07:43 🔗 SketchCow "Couldn't take out the garbage, got hit with a board by a passing truck, went to complain, got arrested for harassment" etc.
07:43 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, likelyt.
07:43 🔗 arrith alard: hm i don't exactly have the time to do it justice. but if you have the time in the next few weeks if you could jot down the things you do to the OS once installed, that'd be neat
07:44 🔗 SketchCow I have raw MPEG
07:44 🔗 SketchCow I make a AVI that works.
07:44 🔗 SketchCow Convering the AVI to a .FLV that works, apparently I lost the knowledge. I used to be able to do it.
07:44 🔗 arrith Coderjoe: virtualbox is portable, but yeah i'd be imagining a linux dev env, i mean unless people working on it aren't on linux
07:44 🔗 SketchCow Oh, and make no mistake.
07:44 🔗 SketchCow I drop the .flv I make into a VLC, it works.
07:45 🔗 Coderjoe virtaulbox is portable, but a script that fires up VB and all of that sounds rather not
07:46 🔗 alard I think the idea is that you use the script to create an appliance that you then distribute.
07:46 🔗 arrith Coderjoe: well to be clear this is just to automate the creation of the vm, which is then distributed. the only people touching it would want to work on the vm itself
07:46 🔗 arrith Coderjoe: but yeah you'd need OS-specific stuff if people on different OSes wanted to dev on the vm
07:47 🔗 SketchCow There, I just told another guy, that no, I won't have his thing for him.
07:47 🔗 SketchCow I have a lot of mail in my inbox right now, mostly me being willing to do things I have no time for.
07:47 🔗 shaqfu SketchCow: In all honesty, you have such incredible cachet right now with gamedevs (via PoP) that the last thing you should worry about is their reaction
07:47 🔗 SketchCow Guy was a buddy, wanted some sort of special preview trailer for my three docs.
07:47 🔗 SketchCow Guess what. None.
07:47 🔗 SketchCow I don't have time to cut a "special preview trailer".
07:47 🔗 SketchCow shaqfu: You do not understand the situation.
07:48 🔗 SketchCow And that's OK.
07:48 🔗 SketchCow Honestly, I shouldn't even be putting this in the channel, it's off topic.
07:48 🔗 SketchCow I'm pissed and I'm tired.
07:49 🔗 SketchCow These three days in Detroit were a triumph. I blew people's minds both on the main keynote for the conference I was asked to do, as well as an excellent 2 hour interview/podcast/appearance at a local reknown library. I was flown in and given a hotel room. I had excellent chats with people.
07:49 🔗 SketchCow But all the time I wasn't doing that? In my nice hotel room, trying to render a fucking .FLV
07:49 🔗 Schbirid i need some advice, our fileplanet downloads include full games from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct2Drive . these games are not playable but apparently the exe files have an product activation screen like http://i.imgur.com/Pxtju.png
07:49 🔗 Schbirid still, at least for the game i just tried (GTA vice city) it installed all the data unencrypted
07:50 🔗 Schbirid this feels like deep copyright trouble to me
07:50 🔗 Coderjoe I feel slightly douchy for not being more talkative, but I tend to be that way around people I don't know well
07:50 🔗 SketchCow What, at the dinner thing?
07:50 🔗 Coderjoe yes
07:50 🔗 SketchCow Oh, well, look, my whole deal is outgoing and social.
07:51 🔗 Schbirid we might be able to filter out most of those games ( *_dd_setup.zip , *_dd.zip )
07:58 🔗 alard Hey, I'm looking for a new home for the MobileMe tracker's Redis. My free time on Amazon is running out at the end of the month, so I should probably move it somewhere else.
07:58 🔗 alard Does anyone have a suggestion? (Or even better -- is running a Redis server with a bit of spare room where the tracker could live out its last month?)
07:58 🔗 alard I found a few free Redis hosts so far, but they're too small (the tracker data is about 50-100MB, which is more than the 5MB they usually give you).
08:00 🔗 SketchCow Can FOS do this work?
08:06 🔗 Schbirid http://helloeveryonethisisarandomsubdomain.archive.org/
08:08 🔗 Aranje hmm, lots of the tabblo stuff that got requeued is failing for me
08:08 🔗 Aranje Downloading fitziane... ERROR (3).
08:08 🔗 Aranje Error downloading 'fitziane'.
08:08 🔗 Aranje Getting next username from tracker... done.
08:08 🔗 Aranje such as that
08:18 🔗 alard SketchCow: Yes, there's no reason FOS couldn't run Redis.
08:18 🔗 alard Aranje: We're getting to the hard cases now -- they've failed before.
08:19 🔗 arrith alard: btw what i meant earlier is i don't have the time to do it justice soon, but i would be curious how small i could get that vm image
08:20 🔗 alard I'll see if I can write some things down. There's not that much that's different from a normal Ubuntu install, just a few tweaks.
08:26 🔗 Coderjoe dpkg --get-selections will give you the installed packages concisely, btw
08:51 🔗 GLaDOS alard: what's the approximate data transferred per month?
08:54 🔗 alard GLaDOS: Less than 3GB.
08:54 🔗 alard But most of that is from the graph data, which can be truncated.
08:55 🔗 oli SketchCow: can i run a .au mirror for textfiles.com for you? whats the best way to grab all the content? im guessing you have it tar.gz'd or something somewhere?
08:56 🔗 GLaDOS alard: pff, that's nothing@
08:57 🔗 alard It's little bits of usernames to and from the heroku webapp.
09:01 🔗 ersi GLaDOS: For some people, it's a lot (Not me, just sayin')
09:01 🔗 Coderjoe can one tracker code instance be used to run multiple projects? (either with one redis instance or multiple)
09:03 🔗 alard Well, at the moment not, though it would be useful to set up a central tracker app somewhere. Then you'd just point-and-click to create a new tracker for the current project.
09:07 🔗 alard GLaDOS: (Also, the bandwidth isn't really the problem, it's running the instance. On Amazon it would be $60, which probably won't kill you but isn't nothing either. :)
09:07 🔗 GLaDOS 60 dollars?
09:07 🔗 GLaDOS wow.
09:07 🔗 alard The micro instance is $0.08 per hour, and Google says that will be $58 dollars for a month.
09:08 🔗 GLaDOS Better off just getting a VPS on its own if thats the price
09:08 🔗 alard Sorry, no, wrong, that's the small instance.
09:09 🔗 alard A micro instance is $0.02 per hour, so $15 for a month.
09:10 🔗 Schbirid how could you make wget reject blog.direct2drive.com/2011/05/special-announcement-from-d2d/index.html?replytocom=70002.html ?
09:10 🔗 Schbirid *replytocom*.html did not work
09:10 🔗 Schbirid *replytocom* neither

09:11 🔗 alard (on the latest wget, of course)
09:13 🔗 * Schbirid builds from bzr
09:13 🔗 GLaDOS huh, that may be why my archiving server isn't getting any new tabblo users
09:13 🔗 GLaDOS It's currently downloading 80 large users
09:14 🔗 alard Schbirid: It's on git, nowadays. The latest alpha version contains everything: ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.13.4.56-620c.tar.bz2
09:14 🔗 Schbirid i prefer whatever someone nicely packaged fir me (arch AUR)
09:15 🔗 Coderjoe argh
09:15 🔗 Coderjoe stupid s3cmd keeps getting stuck downloading a whole lot of nothing
09:18 🔗 RedType ftp://ftp.ntsomz.ru/ u: electro p: electro
09:18 🔗 RedType that is the electro sattelite imagery
09:18 🔗 RedType http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/05/24/electro_l_121_megapixel_earth_photo/
09:18 🔗 RedType ELECTRO-L went aloft in early 2011 and snaps Earth every 30 minutes or so, and the Agency will happily sell you snaps from the bird. Each image packs a kilometre of Terran surface into each pixel.
09:35 🔗 GLaDOS alard: is the tracker software capable of using passwords on a redis server?
09:36 🔗 alard Yes.
09:44 🔗 DoubleJ It's amazing how consistently this happens: I get ops, and then between midnight and 1:00 the router craps itself.
09:45 🔗 GLaDOS Heh
09:46 🔗 DoubleJ Even better, the memac script doesn't know anything's wrong until wget returns. So it steams along, with a five-hour gap, then when it finially gets through mirroring what it can, it goes "holy crap I must've blacked out or something!"
09:47 🔗 DoubleJ So ^C'ing dld-client becomes part of the routine.
09:48 🔗 alard arrith: https://github.com/downloads/ArchiveTeam/warrior-code/recipe-files.tar.gz
09:48 🔗 Coderjoe weird... I requested a large instance, which is supposed to have 850GB of instance storage. the console says I have a large instance. linux on the instance shows 2 cores (medium has 1, large has 2, xlarge has 4), but the instance storage is only 410GB (which is what medium is supposed to have)
09:48 🔗 alard arrith: That's more less what I remember to have done, plus the files that seem to have changed. There may be important bits missing.
09:52 🔗 Coderjoe oh
09:52 🔗 Coderjoe Your m1.large instance comes with 2x420GiB instance storage. The other 420GiB is available but is unformatted and unmounted.
09:52 🔗 Coderjoe sneaky
09:53 🔗 chronomex how dare they expect you to do some work to get your brand new server up to spec
09:55 🔗 Coderjoe it isn't documented on the normal ec2 instance types page. that just says "a total of (blah)". you have to dig deeper into the docs to find this
09:57 🔗 Coderjoe and I don't seem to have the /dev/xvdc that I should have for the other part
09:58 🔗 arrith alard: thanks. i suppose one way to do it is to "diff -r" the vm with a fresh install but egh that's involved. if you wind up remaking the vm image from scratch before i poke around through this maybe you could take notes or something, which would be neat
10:02 🔗 alard arrith: I'll try to remember, but it's not a very structured process. How do these vm-creating scripts work? Is there a standard way of doing it?
10:04 🔗 arrith alard: i'm really not sure. i know you can do basically anything with the VirtualBox cli tools that VirtualBox can do. the tricky part to me is figuring out the preseed file syntax and going over long lists of what can be tweaked
10:05 🔗 arrith alard: i was just thinking of simple lists of VBoxManage stuff which would have each section heavily commented
10:06 🔗 Coderjoe appears to be a bug with the ubuntu 12.04 AMI
10:07 🔗 Coderjoe you can attach it if you use the command-line tools to launch the instance, but the second isn't attached by default, so the gui fails
10:17 🔗 Coderjoe or not? same results with older version
10:17 🔗 arrith longstanding bug maybe :P
10:19 🔗 alard arrith: Something like this https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/jeos-and-vmbuilder.html may be useful.

18:39 🔗 Debianer GFDL
19:05 🔗 Nemo_bis Debianer, you have to explicitly set it in the licenseurl field
19:05 🔗 Nemo_bis by putting https://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html
19:05 🔗 Debianer I'm using the web interface.
19:06 🔗 Nemo_bis beware that you won't be able to edit the metadata again after this
19:06 🔗 Debianer I'm using the web interface...
19:06 🔗 Nemo_bis then I think it's forbidden, or you could try and add anpother licensurl field
19:06 🔗 Nemo_bis ^
19:06 🔗 Nemo_bis if it doesn't work use the general purpose rights field
19:06 🔗 Nemo_bis "rights" field
19:11 🔗 Debianer I'm using the rightsfield and filled in a "fake" public domain license...
19:11 🔗 underscor http://i.imgur.com/oyGrj.png nsfw
19:35 🔗 Nemo_bis Debianer, fake PD is very bad
19:35 🔗 Nemo_bis put CC-BY-SA if you really want to use the licenseurl field
19:35 🔗 Nemo_bis in any case put the correct license in the rights field
19:35 🔗 Nemo_bis and if you care about metadata consistency please don't put erroneous license info
19:42 🔗 Debianer sorry
19:43 🔗 Debianer I'm a n00b
19:44 🔗 Debianer Okay, there
