04:48
π
|
yipdw |
it's a bit, uh, prototypical |
04:49
π
|
yipdw |
but it does seem to work (for me) |
04:49
π
|
yipdw |
in particular, I've not tried it with the Warrior, but the whole thing is based on seesaw |

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO OUR CUSTOMERS: This August 19, 2013 notice is to inform our Microsoft Tag customers that the Microsoft Tag service will terminate in two years, on August 19, 2015. This 2 year termination notice is required per our Terms of Use for the Microsoft Tag Service located at this link: http://tag.microsoft.com/tag-terms-of-use.aspx, Per Section 2 - Availability of Service; Changes to the Agreement & Service, paragraph 2.1. |

Microsofts version of "QR-codes" apparently |
10:36
π
|
ersi |
Tag was, of course, Microsoft's version of the QR code. It used color pixels, which meant it could encode more information in the same space. Unfortunately, the way it's designed, every barcode is just an ID number that points at a Microsoft server, which then forwards the client to the actual URL. Once these servers shut down, every Tag code ever used will break forever. |
10:52

|
SmileyG |
well at least they've given lots of notice. |
11:24
π
|
Ymgve |
any barcode system that requires an online component should burn |
11:24
π
|
Ymgve |
QR got it right by being self-contained |
11:25
π
|
Ymgve |
(though the actual QR design is insanely overengineered) |

but this is MS, they wanted to track who was using what. |
11:26

|
SmileyG |
how better, than controling the translation. |

Oh come on |

They just wanted in on the money |

should have the best of both worlds - encode a raw URL but in rot13 which the tracking server helpfully de-rot13s for you |
11:50

|
ponas |
rot13 is terribly insecure. where I live, we have 29 characters in the alphabet, which means the last three end up unencrypted!! :O |

Does anyone have the klik.me bash wget script I wrote by any chance? |

btw, I have some high res scans of old WebTV manuals and such. I still need to upload it to IA. Though, I may have used a dpi higher than what they were printed as. It's over 2GB |
18:33

And I need to do some cleaning up of the scans. Like rotation, sizing/cropping, rename scanned images and maybe put them together in a neatly organized .pdf |
