04:18 ^🔗	SketchCow	Back.
04:18 ^🔗	SketchCow	Hi.

05:09 ^🔗	SketchCow	So, that happened.
05:09 ^🔗	SketchCow	Specifically:
05:09 ^🔗	SketchCow	http://wsustudentndsa.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/diy-archiving.pdf
05:09 ^🔗	SketchCow	Come on, that's the most adorable thing: Two students at this college did an entire report on the Archive Team
05:10 ^🔗	SketchCow	Without talking to any of us.
05:10 ^🔗	SketchCow	You just want to swaddle them up
05:26 ^🔗	yipdw	should find and invite them in here
05:28 ^🔗	godane	i may archive there site later
05:28 ^🔗	godane	just so we have all the files and stuff

05:32 ^🔗	SketchCow	And you too.
05:39 ^🔗	godane	i'm archiving glennbeck forums right now
05:39 ^🔗	godane	its very big
05:39 ^🔗	godane	your getting about 10 years worth of forums
05:39 ^🔗	godane	there is also a lot of pictures on there that need be captured
05:41 ^🔗	godane	the good news is there maybe very few trolls on the site since you have to pay to access to it
05:42 ^🔗	chronomex	oh that's adorable
05:45 ^🔗	godane	whats funny is there are tons of 'pirated' links to old radio downloads
05:45 ^🔗	godane	thats how i look at gbtv episodes i upload
05:46 ^🔗	godane	if there not hosted by him anymore then its fair game
05:46 ^🔗	godane	then we point to pirate links on his site if there is a problem
05:46 ^🔗	RedType	oh man i was trying to find glenn beck eps a few weeks ago
05:47 ^🔗	RedType	archive team saves the day again
05:58 ^🔗	chronomex	\o/

06:28 ^🔗	fpqc	I'm on page 600/750
06:29 ^🔗	fpqc	ought I upload it anywhere?
06:32 ^🔗	SketchCow	Which file?
06:32 ^🔗	fpqc	uh
06:32 ^🔗	fpqc	that book by schlesinger
06:33 ^🔗	fpqc	:::: (23:20:54) :::: ( fpqc ) hiya
06:33 ^🔗	fpqc	:::: (23:20:57) :::: ( fpqc ) I'm editing this scan
06:33 ^🔗	fpqc	:::: (23:20:58) :::: ( fpqc ) http://archive.org/details/TheAgeOfRooseveltThePoliticsOfUpheaval
06:33 ^🔗	fpqc	:::: (23:21:14) :::: ( fpqc ) making it less bad
06:33 ^🔗	fpqc	I'm cropping the text tight and reformatting the scan
06:34 ^🔗	fpqc	you know, so you don't have the borders of the pages anymore
06:34 ^🔗	fpqc	I was doing it for myself, and I asked if you guys wanted the finished version
06:34 ^🔗	fpqc	and then I'm still waiting for an answer
06:35 ^🔗	ersi	of course we do, but don't count we as IA :)
06:35 ^🔗	fpqc	?
06:36 ^🔗	SketchCow	I can add your work to that directory.
06:40 ^🔗	SketchCow	Put it somewhere I can grab it, and I can put it there.
06:45 ^🔗	fpqc	when it's done
06:45 ^🔗	fpqc	I'm setting all teh bounding boxes by hand
06:45 ^🔗	fpqc	so it takes a little while
06:46 ^🔗	godane	funny thing is this reminds me that i have good collection of doctor who magazines
06:46 ^🔗	fpqc	then I have to crop and stuff
06:46 ^🔗	fpqc	reformat the pages
06:46 ^🔗	fpqc	I'll submit it tomorrow at some time
06:46 ^🔗	chronomex	I know that game
06:46 ^🔗	chronomex	it's a pain in the ass
06:47 ^🔗	fpqc	yep
06:47 ^🔗	chronomex	but it's how you get really nice scans
06:47 ^🔗	chronomex	like, less skew than the original print edition sometimes
06:47 ^🔗	fpqc	yeah
06:47 ^🔗	fpqc	what would be really nice is an OCR/TeX system
06:47 ^🔗	fpqc	like
06:47 ^🔗	fpqc	you OCR the book
06:47 ^🔗	fpqc	and then typeset it with TeX
06:48 ^🔗	chronomex	I wrote a utility to do OCR on fixed-width printouts a while ago
06:48 ^🔗	chronomex	for assembly listings
06:48 ^🔗	chronomex	hmmmmm
06:48 ^🔗	chronomex	I've done a bit of that, just about 100% manually
06:48 ^🔗	fpqc	yeah, but that would be largely impossible for a thousand page book
06:48 ^🔗	fpqc	or whatever this is
06:48 ^🔗	fpqc	750
06:49 ^🔗	chronomex	e.g. http://archive.org/details/TheElectronicSwitchingSystem ==> became ==> http://gir.seattlewireless.net/~chronomex/bellsystem/morris/Morris.html
06:49 ^🔗	fpqc	I mean, if it were a book of overwhelming importance, you could get a few editors to do the project
06:49 ^🔗	chronomex	I abandoned that about halfway in but you get the idea
06:49 ^🔗	fpqc	yeah
06:49 ^🔗	fpqc	The only ReTeXing projects I've seen carried out to completion
06:49 ^🔗	fpqc	are the EGA and SGA ones
06:50 ^🔗	chronomex	EGA and SGA?
06:50 ^🔗	fpqc	(Elements de geometrie algebrique and seminaire de geometrie algebrique du bois marie"
06:50 ^🔗	fpqc	)
06:50 ^🔗	chronomex	ah
06:50 ^🔗	fpqc	those were all hand-done though
06:50 ^🔗	chronomex	yeah I did mine by hand too
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	no, I mean hand-typed
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	not even OCR
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	the source TeX actually preserves linebreaks from the original
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	oh, it's OCRed and then hand-proofed
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	right
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	SGA, if you've read it
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	sometimes the page fails to ocr at all so I retyped it
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	is like tons and tons of non-ocr'abble stuff
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	haven't
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	hmmm
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	mathematical formulas
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	like math and small capitals and whatnot?
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	yep
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	and greek letters
06:51 ^🔗	chronomex	huh.
06:51 ^🔗	fpqc	it's also mimeographed
06:52 ^🔗	chronomex	oh greek is ocrable :P
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	they're handwritten
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	how is that ocrable
06:52 ^🔗	chronomex	o
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	the greek letters are handwritten in there
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	lol
06:52 ^🔗	chronomex	handwriting recognition has been done, but it's not very good
06:52 ^🔗	chronomex	I SEE
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	idk why
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	but I came in here one day
06:52 ^🔗	fpqc	someone was like
06:53 ^🔗	fpqc	"It's you!"
06:53 ^🔗	fpqc	and banned me
06:53 ^🔗	fpqc	like 2 months ago
06:53 ^🔗	fpqc	sketchcow
06:53 ^🔗	fpqc	yeah I'm still even on the banlist
06:53 ^🔗	SketchCow	I see you took your lesson well.
06:53 ^🔗	fpqc	I still am not sure what I did
06:54 ^🔗	chronomex	haha
06:54 ^🔗	fpqc	I even pmed you and said
06:54 ^🔗	fpqc	"what did I do?!"
06:54 ^🔗	SketchCow	Oh, yeah, that works.
06:54 ^🔗	fpqc	and you didn't answer
06:54 ^🔗	SketchCow	Someone bans you, pm them.
06:54 ^🔗	SketchCow	Surely they want to hear more from you.
06:54 ^🔗	SketchCow	It's like when you click on a pop up ad, you obviously want more pop-up ads.
06:54 ^🔗	chronomex	I mean
06:54 ^🔗	chronomex	that's what you'd think, given what they do
06:56 ^🔗	fpqc	lol
06:56 ^🔗	fpqc	but Iwasn't even talking
06:56 ^🔗	SketchCow	Let's step through it.
06:56 ^🔗	fpqc	you banned me when I was idle for like 6 hours
06:57 ^🔗	SketchCow	Are you, or are you not, the fellow who walked up to me at a showing at MAGfest this past January.
06:57 ^🔗	fpqc	nope
06:57 ^🔗	SketchCow	ABSOLUTELY sure?
06:57 ^🔗	fpqc	I don't know what a magfest is
06:57 ^🔗	fpqc	so yes I'm certain
06:57 ^🔗	SketchCow	This person, I don't completely believe HE knows what a magfest is.
06:57 ^🔗	fpqc	well
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	I have not been outside of the states of michigan and new jersey
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	in the past few years
06:58 ^🔗	SketchCow	That's good. Keep that up.
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	I go to school in michigan and home in nj
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	and uh
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	I'm 22
06:58 ^🔗	SketchCow	Good age.
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	idk
06:58 ^🔗	SketchCow	Wait around long enough, I die, you get a hall pass.
06:58 ^🔗	fpqc	oh, well, I am not that guy
06:59 ^🔗	fpqc	=(
06:59 ^🔗	SketchCow	So, good, because then I won't say what I was going to say.
06:59 ^🔗	fpqc	which is?
06:59 ^🔗	fpqc	"hope you like being banned again, bitch"
06:59 ^🔗	fpqc	idk
06:59 ^🔗	SketchCow	But let's step back and discuss your lines that made me think you WERE that guy.
06:59 ^🔗	SketchCow	ha ha. No.
06:59 ^🔗	SketchCow	No, I was going to physically threaten you.
06:59 ^🔗	fpqc	oh
06:59 ^🔗	SketchCow	Obviously bans don't bother you.
07:00 ^🔗	SketchCow	No, we gotta move to shifting atoms.
07:00 ^🔗	fpqc	well, I mean, I was mainly left curious
07:00 ^🔗	SketchCow	....bi-curious?
07:00 ^🔗	fpqc	and kind of upset
07:00 ^🔗	fpqc	eh
07:00 ^🔗	SketchCow	I got just the guy for you.
07:00 ^🔗	fpqc	does he look like a girl?
07:00 ^🔗	SketchCow	Anyway.
07:00 ^🔗	SketchCow	ANY guy looks like a girl if it's dark enough
07:00 ^🔗	fpqc	sure, but I sleep with the lights on
07:01 ^🔗	fpqc	right so you were saying
07:01 ^🔗	SketchCow	Now, this guy who has been harassing me with that aspie bombadier quality for, oh, 3 years now. He has gotten enough on my nerves that someone fitting his profile makes me figure setting them on fire, just to be safe, is worth collateral damage.
07:01 ^🔗	SketchCow	So that's gotta be pretty bad.
07:01 ^🔗	fpqc	=(
07:01 ^🔗	SketchCow	Well, you see.
07:02 ^🔗	SketchCow	Obviously I am willing to make innocent human beings matching his actions miserable.
07:02 ^🔗	fpqc	hey, I'm not an aspie, the doctors said so
07:02 ^🔗	SketchCow	It's like OCR
07:02 ^🔗	SketchCow	But with banning
07:02 ^🔗	fpqc	TAR
07:02 ^🔗	fpqc	textual
07:02 ^🔗	fpqc	aspie
