[06:15] SketchCow: you may want to mirror this: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/ [06:15] there is lots of stuff there [08:32] Quiet channel lately [08:59] What! [08:59] It was rocking all weekend, buddy. [18:58] we had a party while your parents were out [18:59] balrog says not to open the laundry basket, just dump the whole thing in the washing machine [19:00] Hahahahaha [19:00] Jason never fails to brighten my day [19:41] need any help with webshots? [19:41] i really need to make just a generic heroku-warrior [19:41] I want you to learn Javascript. Is that so hard? [19:41] SketchCow: JS goes against everything I believe in :) [19:41] emulation has always been a big part of my life though, so i would consider [19:42] i fully appreciate the importance of the project [19:47] kennethre: while that may be true (for both of us), it's here to stay :| [19:47] * kennethre is sadly playing the new pokemon game right now [19:48] * nintendud almost purchased that, but wouldn't have time to play [19:48] same, but i fly a lot [19:48] so i'll play it on planes [19:48] Nice. Maybe I'll purchase it before I fly in a few weeks. [19:50] i haven't really played since the red and blue remakes [19:50] ahhh. I have HeartGold. Still haven't beaten vit. [19:50] it's surprisingly good so far [19:50] it* [19:50] they polished the whole experience quite a bit [19:50] very streamlined [19:51] Yeah, I bet. [19:51] How many games do you need to collect 'em all, I wonder? [19:51] dozens and dozens [20:11] kennethre: I missed most of the conversation due to my connection sucking balls, what was it about? it seems interesting [20:14] lol pokemon [20:15] i don't get it really, all the games seem to be the same thing over again? [20:15] well - looks like I'm not going to get any work done tonight... [20:15] screw this ISP [20:16] SmileyG: I missed bits and pieces so I may have an incorrect idea of the conversation, but I saw something about purchasing something, and something about javascript - how's that related to pokemon? ._. [20:16] well there's always a new generation of 10-year-olds [20:16] DFJustin: then it makes sense [20:17] but i mean the people who continue to buy it... [20:17] joepie91: :( [20:35] Ha ha, once again we're going to flood FOS [20:35] This time with Webshots. [20:35] The data is FLYING in. [20:35] :D [20:36] nooooooooo i dropped another place :( [20:41] at this rate, I'm going to drop off the leaderboard [20:41] excellent [20:51] if anyone's running this on ec2, a micro instance is fine, hook a fairly large ebs storage to that 50 -100gb, and watch the outgoing bandwidth. also, charging for disk I/O is STUPID, they charge for usage hours, and storage, and bandwidth, already why charge for io? [20:53] To give you an incentive to optimise your io? [20:55] I've never used EC2 before. I notice for micro instances, they charge hourly. Does that include all bandwidth, or is there a surcharge for going over some amount? [20:55] i have check in up to episode 120 of no bs podcast [20:56] free tier rocks, "aws free" [20:56] 15GB is nothing though [20:58] oh, I see [20:58] they have the data transfer prices lower [20:58] on the page [20:59] better off getting a low end vps [20:59] from some offer on lowendbox.com [20:59] tons of providers there where yu can push a lot of data in and out for very low price [20:59] yeah, that's expensive. Unless I'm mathing wrong, they charge $120 for 1TB of bandwidth out? [21:00] anyway, I was just looking. [21:01] i havent done the sums, but they are expensive :p [22:25] so for sending boxes of manuals and software to scan/host at the Internet Archive, what's the address to use? do I need to address to it to anyone? [22:30] dashcloud: If it's specifically for SketchCow, I'd defer to him, but the general donation address is [22:31] June Goldsmith [22:31] Media Donations [22:31] Internet Archive [22:31] 300 Funston Ave [22:31] San Francisco, CA 94118 [22:34] here's the list- http://pastebin.com/pKD29tbF I would think most of them could be hosted there [22:36] oh yeah, we're definitely interested [22:36] I would ping SketchCow to see if he has some special thing for manual donations [22:36] but if not, the above address is cool [23:46] What [23:49] If you send things to the archive it will be months or years before it's scanned. [23:50] okay- I am glad to know that [23:51] so just mail to you and you'll take it from there? [23:52] Well, you're more likely to see it scanned. [23:52] There's some prelim discussion of an Internet Archive scanner coming to my house. [23:52] whoa! [23:52] Yeah, then fuck you clowns, I will blacken the internet's sky with PDFs [23:53] so would you have a quota to fulfill per week or something to keep it near you? [23:53] Yes [23:53] And operation. [23:53] No, I'd need to take it for a summer and put people in my house. [23:54] I'm working on grabbing lots of service manuals from the major laptop companies currently- Dell, HP/Compaq for the moment
