[00:24] SketchCow: did you find yourself needing to limit how fast you downloaded from FTP sites, or is that not really an issue? [00:53] No. [00:53] Most are so dead they don't notice. [00:56] One trick I'm finding that is working is searching for certain magic words, specifically dead famous FTP sites, means I'm finding mirrors and in those mirrors are often mirrors of OTHER websites. [00:56] Example: https://www.google.com/search?q=ftp+garbo [00:56] it's mirrors all the way down [00:57] http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~joe/best-ftp-sites.html see? [00:58] http://153.19.251.222/mirror/ has shitty mirrors [00:58] But that's a start [00:58] and so on and so on [01:03] here's a copy of chapter 10 from Internet Games Directory- a listing of what FTP sites were good then: http://pastebin.com/NA610GXe [01:04] (the book is from 1996) [01:06] I've started grabbing Halycon and the first mirror listed for it [06:33] chronomex: Could you take a look at the tracker host? It's been down for over a day and we need it to finish the webshots stuff. Maybe it's just a simple problem that can easily be fixed [06:33] sure [06:33] 22:33:39 up 1 day, 12:39, 1 user, load average: 1.05, 0.96, 0.96 [06:33] you sure? [06:34] http://tracker.archiveteam.org/webshots/ [06:35] hmm, alard set that up, and I don't know how he configured it [06:36] alard hasn't been around the last two days, maybe he is busy with work/private life [06:36] k [06:37] I've set up tracker before [06:37] and can take a peek [06:37] oh, yeah [06:37] I know what's wrong there [06:37] Redis is just offline [06:38] ok cool, know what I should do from here? [06:38] oh spiffy, there it goes [06:38] if there's a script to start Redis, it just needs to be restarted [06:38] thanks! [06:38] np [06:39] I wonder why it crashed [06:39] was it OOM-killed? [06:39] good question [06:39] What kind of VPS is the tracker running, btw? [06:40] it's on a linode [06:40] linode 512 to be precise [06:40] Yay, redis came up clean this time for all trackers it seems [06:41] Redis can be pretty memory-hungry [06:41] Damn that Linode thing is expensive [06:41] and 512 MB is probably pushing it [06:41] so [06:41] if you have suggestions to move it elsewhere, soultcer, I'm game [06:41] but my laziness outweighs a small amount of cost savings [06:42] the tracker does generate a lot of data, but last I checked it doesn't generate that many keys [06:42] and keys are what you can't swap to disk in Redis [06:42] plus, linode gave me a sweet tshirt at sxsw [06:42] maybe that changed; I haven't looked at the tracker code since alard added multi-project capability [06:42] no, there are still only few dozen/hundred keys [06:42] oh [06:42] I thought redis remove the swap-to-disk feature again [06:42] yeah, that should be fine [06:43] oh, so it was removed [06:44] well never mind then, I guess we do have to take into account value size [07:08] http://thenextweb.com/google/2012/11/25/google-shuts-down-dedicated-motorola-mobility-sites-for-asia-europe-middle-east-and-africa/ [07:40] Too bad, it rains. [07:40] I planned to reach the far special post office which allows me to send SketchCow those magazines by bike. [07:49] i uploaded 6 issues of pctoday magazine so far [07:49] http://archive.org/details/pctoday-magazine-v2i6 [07:50] its only issue 6 thur 12 of volume 2 so far [10:24] yipdw: looks like redis shat the bed ~an hour ago, i just kicked it back into life [10:24] i am going to bed and do not have high hopes [10:25] lol that might explain my issues. [10:25] giff access? [10:26] * SmileyG realises this is his lifes objective [10:26] to run stuff like this for other people [10:28] * ersi rolls eyes [10:30] :O [10:30] hmmm restarted warrior now works :/ weird. [15:16] was someone archiving ftp.funet.fi recently? I'd like to get a copy of the usenet archive portion [15:20] closure: <@balrog> oh yeah, the archives I'm uploading include a copy of ftp.funet.fi from 2008 [15:22] did he say where? [15:23] Nope. And that was almost a week ago. [15:24] iirc they're going onto an IA server where sketchcow will then package them up into items [15:36] closure, Deewiant: uploaded it to SketchCow's box [15:37] 1989_01_BYTE_14-01_PC_Communications_and_Annual_Awards_and_Digitizing_Tablets.pdf [15:37] WHEEEEE 1989 of 03 and Volume 14 and 03 [15:37] 1989_03_BYTE_14-03_Mac_Supplement_286_vs_386sx_Object_Oriented_Programming.pdf [15:37] WHEEEEE 1989 of 04 and Volume 14 and 04 [15:37] 1989_04_BYTE_14-04_CASE_and_UPSes_and_Graphics_Suppliment.pdf [15:37] etc [15:37] Allow me a little to upload 4.3 gb of Bytes [15:37] Then we'll get to the other [15:45] chronomex: Something seems to be up with the tracker again, etc. (Meant to write that in this channel) [15:52] its on fire. [16:07] There it go [16:07] (The Byte Upload) [16:18] SmileyG: Thanks for your comment. [16:18] ersi: quite alright. [16:18] Its licenced cc-by-sa [16:19] Aaaaand up they go [16:24] The deriver is NOT going to like those. 200mb in some cases. [16:25] ersi: ugh, gimme a few hours to wake up and go to work and shit [16:27] chronomex: Sure thang. Just thought I'd poke you the earlier the better :) [16:27] yeah, thx for adding it to my agenda [16:39] just kicked the server, will investigate later [16:39] coolers [16:39] # /etc/init.d/redis-server restart ; /etc/init.d/nginx restart [16:39] if that doesn't fix it, I don't know what else will! [16:43] Out of memory: Kill process 21534 (redis-server) score 284 or sacrifice child [16:43] Killed process 21534 (redis-server) total-vm:309624kB, anon-rss:111352kB, file-rss:260kB [16:43] oh yep [16:43] fuck [16:44] sacrifice child: the only logical option [16:45] nom nom nom, that mem tastes good. [16:45] How much mem is it eating btw? [16:46] Does linode allow you to upgrade RAM? [16:46] yeah, but you have to upgrade the whole thing at once [16:47] 300M, according to that whine line [16:47] 300Mb... how much in the box~? :S [16:47] generate giant /swap [16:48] the box is only 512M [16:49] :/ [19:12] The Byte magazine is STILL being derived. [19:12] Go team [20:05] http://techcrunch.com/2012/11/26/twitter-ceo-dick-costolo-twitter-sees-a-billion-tweets-every-two-and-a-half-days-users-can-download-their-entire-archive-by-year-end/ [20:13] o_O [20:15] I seriously dout it though. [20:15] doubt it [20:33] Haha, Dick. Great name. [20:33] :D [20:54] http://archive.org/details/ftpsites [21:34] for file renames, i apparently need to use regexps, (at least for anything other than basic ones) and i cant figure this out. i want from the beginning of the name to the first instance of " - " removed, minus the quotes [21:35] SketchCow: i upload my iso yesterday and its still not in http folder: http://archive.org/details/cdrom-linuxformatmagazine-142 [21:35] please don't tell me it go lost in the mail [21:35] takes 5 hours just to upload it [21:36] ok i know why [21:36] if you see the word "torrent" crossed out on the left that means it's still processing [21:36] its waiting to run [21:37] its just weird that i got 2 items waiting to run [21:38] processing times are highly variable depending on the phase of the moon and how much clop fanart underscor is running through the servers [21:39] good news is none of my pctoday magazines are not breaking [21:39] or stop derive cause its having a problem [21:40] :D [21:40] DFJustin: Is the iso losted? [21:41] you ran it and there is no iso in http folder [21:41] https://ia601508.us.archive.org/34/items/cdrom-linuxformatmagazine-142/ [21:41] hit refresh [21:42] also I ran nothing [21:42] it must have been underscor or someone here [22:10] http://archive.org/details/byte-magazine-1989-04 took 6 hours to process [22:55] is archive.org having connection issues? [23:02] pctoday magazine is uploaded [23:02] up to end of 2011 [23:35] SketchCow, are you missing any BYTE mags? I probably have at least 10 years of them in the attic
