09:11 🔗 Nemo_bis well, 300k a year above, probably many more now
09:11 🔗 Nemo_bis *ago
09:12 🔗 nitro2k01 Do you mean you don't know how many wikis in general, or how many Wikia wikis that are not hosted under the wikia domain?
09:13 🔗 Nemo_bis how many mediawiki wikis in general
09:13 🔗 Nemo_bis Wikia wikis not under wikia.com are few
09:14 🔗 Nemo_bis yesterday I tried setting up http://www.cs.brown.edu/~pavlo/mediawiki/ again but it's above my skills for now
09:22 🔗 SmileyG hmmm using random wikis for storing of data?
09:28 🔗 Nemo_bis SmileyG: well, yes, forget the initial purpose
09:28 🔗 SmileyG :D yeah
09:28 🔗 SmileyG tar: Options `-Aru' are incompatible with `-f -'

16:05 🔗 Nemo_bis "No outstanding tasks." \o/ https://www.us.archive.org/log_show.php?task_id=128637767 (took a month)
18:04 🔗 chronomex heh
18:37 🔗 SmileyG hmmm
18:37 🔗 SmileyG did my stuff ever finish :S
20:27 🔗 godane i'm back
20:27 🔗 godane uploaded and checked in: http://archive.org/details/BBC_Schools_Progs_VHSRip
22:05 🔗 alard So, http://dailybooth.com/ ?
22:05 🔗 chronomex yes, let's
22:09 🔗 alard Do we need a new channel?
22:09 🔗 alard Good news: they have an API with numeric user ids.
22:10 🔗 alard http://api.dailybooth.com/v1/users/100000.json
22:10 🔗 chronomex neat!
22:10 🔗 ersi Good sirs
22:10 🔗 * ersi pets dailybooth
22:10 🔗 ersi we'll rape you diligently
22:11 🔗 alard A slightly weird popup message when you leave the API overview page: http://developers.dailybooth.com/
22:12 🔗 balrog uh, they're going away?
22:13 🔗 balrog seems they're still accepting new signups
22:14 🔗 ersi nothing on their blog either
22:14 🔗 ersi but a lot of "news blogs" reports it
22:15 🔗 ersi this seems to be the ""source"": http://thenextweb.com/insider/2012/11/12/is-original-photo-sharing-service-dailybooth-closing-down/
22:16 🔗 alard The blog and the in-the-press page are out of date.
22:16 🔗 ersi wtf is thenextweb
22:16 🔗 balrog the blog is also listed in google's safe browsing db as a malware source
22:16 🔗 ersi yea
22:16 🔗 balrog thenextweb is a rather reputable news site
22:17 🔗 ersi seems pretty tardy to me
22:18 🔗 Aranje as tardy as techcrunch or any other site of that sort
22:18 🔗 chronomex tardcrunch
22:18 🔗 Aranje more general focus though, and a bit better reporting
22:42 🔗 alard Perhaps we should ask SketchCow first. I'm sure Brewster would be delighted to have yet-another multi-terabyte photo sharing site, but you never know. :)
22:43 🔗 chronomex :P
22:43 🔗 chronomex we should work on some estimates
22:59 🔗 balrog 2tb hard drives are what, $100?
22:59 🔗 balrog :P
23:21 🔗 SketchCow I'd like to know how big we think it'll be.
