06:12 🔗 SketchCow alard: We'd still like to chat
06:13 🔗 godane i'm doing september 2007 of techcrunch
06:13 🔗 godane its like 20+mb now a month
06:14 🔗 godane at least i can get up to july 2012
06:14 🔗 godane since i'm doing by month and not year
07:25 🔗 Schbirid i need help on fileplanet. several terabytes of space
07:46 🔗 alard SketchCow: Go ahead. I've been on a holiday for a while, so I might have missed or forgotten what it's about.
08:15 🔗 SketchCow No, it's cool.
08:15 🔗 SketchCow Please hop in #memac, let's put that pony to bed
08:16 🔗 primeape i herd u liek mudkipz SketchCow
09:03 🔗 SketchCow -------------------------------------------------------------------------
09:03 🔗 SketchCow Archiveteam Project: We'd like to Document the Archiveteam Warrior
09:04 🔗 SketchCow Alard could use your help - making documentation (maybe use Wiki initially)
09:04 🔗 SketchCow let's step through it and document as much as possible.
09:04 🔗 SketchCow -------------------------------------------------------------------------
09:06 🔗 alard (For Python specialists: improvements to the code are welcome too. My Python experience is quite limited, so I may have made lots of Python faux pas.)
09:17 🔗 Schbirid SketchCow: can you hook me up with space for fileplanet? the ign guys are getting impatient and underscor is awol and i have no idea how much he got
09:17 🔗 Schbirid dont have the time right now to write some direct ftp->ia-item stuff
09:18 🔗 SketchCow What do you need? rsync, ftp, what
09:21 🔗 Schbirid ftp would probably work, i could use mc to login to both ftps and copy over
09:40 🔗 BlueMax if you need help writing simple n00b-user documentation for the Warrior I could help with that
09:41 🔗 BlueMax I'm fairly good at writing that sort of stuff
09:41 🔗 SketchCow There we go
09:41 🔗 SketchCow BlueMax has a great use!
09:42 🔗 SketchCow alard: You have a doc slave
09:42 🔗 SketchCow Go for it
09:42 🔗 BlueMax SketchCow, I'm not just for making memes and running scared :D
09:48 🔗 alard BlueMax: Cool.
09:49 🔗 BlueMax alard, what do you need me to do?
09:50 🔗 alard Well, I'm not sure what SketchCow wants, but it may be useful to have some documentation about running the new warrior.
09:50 🔗 alard So: what does it do, how do you download and install it, how do you run it.
09:50 🔗 alard How to select a project, how to stop it when you're done.
09:51 🔗 alard Right now this is all we have: http://archive.org/details/archiveteam-warrior
09:52 🔗 BlueMax Need/want screenshots or video?
09:53 🔗 alard That might be fun, yes, though it's probably better to wait with that until we have a real project to show.
09:55 🔗 BlueMax So text only for now. Right.
09:56 🔗 alard It's easier to make small updates to text, right? (Although you could show the virtualbox parts, that won't change.)
09:57 🔗 BlueMax It is, sure. Just thought the screenshots would make things easier.
09:58 🔗 alard Certainly. Feel free to make them, it's just that the warrior web interface might change, and that the example project isn't that interesting to look at.
09:59 🔗 BlueMax Well if you need/want me to make them later, just beep me. I don't think I'll be going away for a while
10:02 🔗 BlueMax Do we have any idea of system requirements? I was thinking something along the lines of speedy dual core + most quad-core processors, 2GB of RAM and 50GB of HDD space
10:02 🔗 BlueMax Admittedly I'm probably wrong
10:03 🔗 alard The VM has 400MB of memory, 1 CPU, has a disk that can grow to 70GB.
10:05 🔗 BlueMax To be safe, put it up to 2GB RAM and 100GB of HDD space then. 4GB RAM recommended. Sound good?
10:06 🔗 alard Yes, I think so. Depends on what else you do with your machine, I guess.
10:09 🔗 BlueMax Noted
10:32 🔗 SketchCow What I'd like to see is:
10:32 🔗 SketchCow 1. How to use the warrior
10:32 🔗 SketchCow 2. General brain dump on theory of operation from alard
10:32 🔗 SketchCow 3. How to make new projects and run a tracker
10:36 🔗 ersi 4. ???
10:36 🔗 ersi 5. Profit
10:37 🔗 SketchCow 6. Furries
10:38 🔗 SketchCow ALWAYS WITH THE FURRIES
10:38 🔗 BlueMax 7. Top hat
10:38 🔗 BlueMax Also
10:38 🔗 BlueMax Where do you guys want me to put the pure-text documentation
10:38 🔗 SketchCow Wiki
10:38 🔗 SketchCow Initially
10:38 🔗 BlueMax What page
10:38 🔗 SketchCow Put it in the talk page of the archiveteam warrior page
10:38 🔗 SketchCow http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Talk:ArchiveTeam_Warrior
10:39 🔗 SketchCow Good for initial work
10:39 🔗 ersi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erh2ngRZxs0
10:39 🔗 ersi Mmmm.
10:40 🔗 ersi Archived that for the future
10:40 🔗 BlueMax I fucking hate Recaptcha
10:40 🔗 BlueMax I want to take the guy who made it
10:40 🔗 BlueMax And shove his head up his arse and out his own mouth again
10:40 🔗 BlueMax And if he can't read his own system I'll cut his head off with a guillotine
10:41 🔗 ersi whatever Recaptcha implementor has to do with the actual images that are displayed
10:42 🔗 BlueMax SketchCow alard check the talk page please
10:51 🔗 Schbirid BlueMax: be aware that you "only" need to enter one part correctly, the one that always has a similar look and usually is fucking hard to read
10:53 🔗 BlueMax I'm probably dumb as a plank Schbirid but what are you referring to
10:54 🔗 Schbirid recaptcha
10:54 🔗 BlueMax I try that and it never works
11:11 🔗 SketchCow Right, keep going.
11:12 🔗 BlueMax In what areas?
11:13 🔗 BlueMax (Other than how to install VirtualBox on Mac OS and Linux, because I don't have a damn clue about them)
11:15 🔗 SketchCow This is setting up
11:15 🔗 SketchCow Also add running it/admin and links to the code
11:17 🔗 BlueMax Running it is the whole second half
11:19 🔗 SketchCow No, that's running it for the client.
11:19 🔗 SketchCow I mean the person who runs it
11:20 🔗 BlueMax You've lost me. I feel dumb
11:20 🔗 SketchCow That's the spirit
11:22 🔗 ersi alard: You mentioned some Python code? I can't find any ATWarrior repositories that's Python though?
11:22 🔗 alard BlueMax: Looks good so far.
11:23 🔗 BlueMax SketchCow, you mean running the main server for adminning the clients? I have no idea on that, sorry
11:23 🔗 alard ersi: It's the project called 'seesaw-kit'. I'll make a list of the components and put it on the wiki.
11:23 🔗 ersi alard: Ah, why of course
11:23 🔗 alard https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/seesaw-kit
11:24 🔗 alard The seesaw-kit has a standalone runner, but it also contains the warrior web app etc.
11:24 🔗 ersi alard: Was listed as 'Javascript', that's why I didn't look. :-P
11:24 🔗 ersi mm
11:25 🔗 ersi alard: Anything specificly needed at that project? Besides use, testing and possibly reviewing?
11:33 🔗 alard It would be useful to start with the project/pipeline definition system, I think. It's easy to make updates to the rest of the system, but it would be good to check the configuration bits before we use it.
11:34 🔗 alard That would be step 3, "How to make new projects", from SketchCow's list.
12:09 🔗 godane is something going on at IA?
12:09 🔗 godane cause my GBTV_02_20_2012 item does have the file i uploaded
12:09 🔗 godane doesn't
12:09 🔗 godane its been over a half a hour
12:10 🔗 godane SketchCow: are you there?
12:11 🔗 godane IA doesn't have the file i upload over half a hour ago
12:19 🔗 SketchCow Do you have the details id?
12:20 🔗 SketchCow Because man, do I love doing IA tech support.
12:20 🔗 SketchCow LOVE. IT.
12:20 🔗 godane http://archive.org/details/GBTV_02_20_2012
12:20 🔗 SketchCow http://archive.org/catalog.php?history=1&identifier=GBTV_02_20_2012
12:20 🔗 SketchCow Which you can do, by the way
12:20 🔗 SketchCow Shows that it is still awaiting some processing.
12:21 🔗 godane ok
12:21 🔗 SketchCow That it's in the derive phase.
12:21 🔗 SketchCow That it's probably going to take a while.
12:21 🔗 godane just normally it still post it before derive
12:21 🔗 SketchCow I see it's a 1gb video file. So basically, it's taking it A NORMALLY LARGE FILE
12:22 🔗 SketchCow See, I don't know how you got this far to not understand this basic thing.
12:22 🔗 SketchCow The Archive.org machines go through waves of processing.
12:22 🔗 SketchCow Sometimes a large amount of data is dumped.
12:22 🔗 godane i know that
12:22 🔗 SketchCow Then it takes a while to go through it.
12:22 🔗 SketchCow No.
12:22 🔗 SketchCow No, you really don't.
12:22 🔗 SketchCow Because you just pulled me aside to check something you could EASILY check yourself.
12:22 🔗 godane terabytes of data is dump every minute
12:22 🔗 SketchCow For an issue that's not an issue.
12:23 🔗 SketchCow So look, I have to know, godane.
12:23 🔗 SketchCow What is it?
12:23 🔗 SketchCow High functioning autism? Youth?
12:23 🔗 SketchCow What's your deal?
12:23 🔗 SketchCow My deal is I'm high strung and emotionally unstable.
12:23 🔗 godane High functioning autism
12:23 🔗 SketchCow Leads to getting things done with anger but involvement.
12:23 🔗 SketchCow OK, see, that makes sense.
12:24 🔗 SketchCow I'll do my best to work around that, but I'm a really high-strung individual and being asked basic questions makes me go insane
12:24 🔗 godane thats why i have very poor backup methods too
12:24 🔗 SketchCow We'll work to overcome it
12:24 🔗 godane blurays and 1 3tb hard drive and 1 500gb usb drive
12:25 🔗 godane the usb drive will before the smaller stuff like my magazine collection
12:25 🔗 godane also i got the full apple magazine collection so far
12:25 🔗 godane from october 2011 to july 27 2012
12:33 🔗 godane sorry about the question
12:33 🔗 godane just there was no link on item page saying item history or something
12:37 🔗 Schbirid yeah, those things are hard to find on archive.org
12:37 🔗 Schbirid iirc that link is somewhere though
12:37 🔗 Schbirid http://archive.org/contribute.php is useful (be logged in)
12:40 🔗 BlueMax man, lots of people around here with high-strung autism *points at self, is slapped for offtopic talk*
12:40 🔗 godane btw i was able to fix the twit-podcasts stuff today
12:41 🔗 godane the meta data in the mp3 was very bad with this-week-in-fun
12:42 🔗 godane i had to change the data in one just cause it was the wrong episode
12:51 🔗 godane i may have ship jason a hard drive full of x-play and comic con
12:52 🔗 godane only cause i don't think G4 is one of 126 channels that IA records
12:52 🔗 alard I started documenting the seesaw-kit here: https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/seesaw-kit/wiki
12:53 🔗 godane news channels make more sense for IA to record
13:08 🔗 godane getting some old PC Games cover discs
13:08 🔗 godane like from 1995 old
13:14 🔗 Schbirid might be worth adding the country code to the item name when uploading them
13:14 🔗 Schbirid i am currently collecting german pc games discs
13:18 🔗 godane ok
13:22 🔗 godane i mean get gbtv 2012-02-22
13:23 🔗 godane turned out i don't have it in my collection
13:29 🔗 godane looks like this was not added to pc gamer sub-collection: http://archive.org/details/cdrom-pcgamer-208
17:17 🔗 Schbirid please move http://archive.org/details/journalstar.com_sports_local_20120730.warc to whereever AT website grabs sit
17:18 🔗 Schbirid this was requested by a random visitor recently
17:18 🔗 Schbirid i will upload another part in a moment
17:19 🔗 Schbirid http://archive.org/details/journalstar.com_news_local_20120730.warc there it is
17:21 🔗 underscor YES HI SOMEONE TURNED ON THE UNDERSCORSIGNAL
17:21 🔗 underscor IT'S LIKE THE BAT SIGNAL BUT INSTEAD OF A BAT IT'S AN EXTENDED MIDDLE FINGER
17:30 🔗 BlueMax oh god stop shouting I'm trying to sleep here
17:33 🔗 BlueMax Also underscor you got made a bitch by John Romero
17:38 🔗 DoubleJ Well, it was about time Romero made somebody his bitch. He'd been promising it since like 1999.
17:39 🔗 balrog- uhh, what did Romero do?
17:58 🔗 DoubleJ https://twitter.com/romero/status/231146350627131392
17:59 🔗 DoubleJ Wow, it's a pain in the ass to find something on Twitter.
17:59 🔗 DoubleJ (And not much of a "making you a bitch" comment, but that's what they were talking about.
17:59 🔗 DoubleJ )
18:00 🔗 balrog- yeah LOL
19:08 🔗 godane techcrunch is now at 30mb+ a month now
19:08 🔗 godane i'm in the 2008 zone
19:09 🔗 godane at least being able to do it in small chucks allows people to go though it better
19:11 🔗 underscor DoubleJ: I feel like I'm missing what that's saying
19:13 🔗 underscor or rather
19:13 🔗 underscor I don't get how that's making me his bitch
19:18 🔗 SketchCow You're overthinking it
19:18 🔗 SketchCow Years and years ago, Romero's ad company made a "John Romero will make you his bitch" ad
19:18 🔗 SketchCow He has never lived that down, since the game didn't sell well
19:19 🔗 SketchCow http://archive.gamespy.com/articles/june03/dumbestmoments/index20.shtml
19:20 🔗 underscor aha
19:20 🔗 underscor thanks
19:35 🔗 BlueMax Whenever someone links the Gamespy artcile that SketchCow links I always re-read it
19:35 🔗 BlueMax I dunno what it is about it but it's such a good read
19:45 🔗 DoubleJ Dang, I got the year wrong, too. It was 1997. So, my first senior year.
19:45 🔗 SketchCow alard: Finally came up with one: tumblr
19:53 🔗 underscor I can't stop listening to this song. Something about the vocal progressions is just <3
19:53 🔗 underscor http://circlejerk.k-srv.info/01%20Baba%20Yetu%20%28feat.%20Soweto%20Gospel%20Choir%29.mp3
19:53 🔗 underscor Totally worth every penny on the HMB
19:57 🔗 alard SketchCow: Ah, tumblr, interesting.
19:57 🔗 BlueMax lol, nice URL underscor.
20:00 🔗 SketchCow That would be a good one
20:09 🔗 underscor SketchCow: what's the name of your slow motion choking song?
20:35 🔗 SketchCow -bs
20:37 🔗 nitro2k01 Remind me, which month is "document a file format" day?
20:37 🔗 nitro2k01 *month
20:37 🔗 SketchCow November
21:47 🔗 Schbirid i am giving planetphillip.com another go. only the map review posts though
21:51 🔗 SketchCow We've just been donated three VMs to put the Fix the File Format Problem month on
21:57 🔗 shaqfu Woo
