01:50:00<SketchCow>Back home
01:50:00<SketchCow>Let the fun begin
02:18:00<dashcloud>did you see pdftribute.net and http://pdftribute.loc-com.de/ ?
02:19:00<SketchCow>Yes
03:57:00<SketchCow>Adding 50+ books abaout atari programming
04:19:00<illunatic>:(
04:19:00<illunatic>hey SketchCow, are you around?
04:31:00<SketchCow>Yes
04:31:00<SketchCow>http://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3Aataribooks&sort=-publicdate
04:31:00<DFJustin>hahaha you have that forth book
04:32:00<DFJustin>best cover of all time
04:32:00<chronomex>ha nice
04:45:00<balrog_>will these likely go black?
04:52:00<balrog_>so yeah, academic journals... what annoys me more than paywalls is when useful papers are published only in the proceedings of a specific conference only in book form ... and when only about 10 libraries have a copy of said book
04:52:00<balrog_>not all that sure what the solution is there.
06:44:00<SketchCow>Who know what'll happen. I'm excited to see
07:35:00<SketchCow>I just did a mass of moving of files around
07:51:00<SketchCow>Also, I gotta say.... there's some woman who is scanning, by the boatload, old books and putting them up
07:51:00<SketchCow>I mean TONS
07:51:00<SketchCow>Looks like they added 275 books in the last month and a half.
08:23:00<chronomex>whoa
08:23:00<chronomex>nice
08:24:00<chronomex>that's like a full time hobby or something
08:47:00<SketchCow>Righto
08:47:00<SketchCow>http://archive.org/details/folkscanomy
08:47:00<SketchCow>Just added them all in.
08:47:00<SketchCow>Brilliant stuff.
08:47:00<SketchCow>Like, really cool books.
08:48:00<SketchCow>http://archive.org/details/TelevisionEngineersPocketBook
08:49:00<chronomex>these are cool
08:49:00<SketchCow>http://archive.org/stream/TheClockworkOfTheHeavens/Asprey-TheClockworkOfTheHeavens#page/n1/mode/2up
08:52:00<SketchCow>http://archive.org/details/amigabooks also good.
08:52:00<SketchCow>http://archive.org/details/magazine_rack also had a bunch added.
09:12:00<Nemo_bis>SketchCow: I was reminded that I sesnt you the magazines more than a month ago. Still no news?
09:13:00<Nemo_bis>hehe, https://archive.org/details/SeventeenMagazine2011-05 spotlight item
09:14:00<Nemo_bis>of course there's Justin Bieber in it
09:14:00<SketchCow>no news maybe
09:14:00<SketchCow>But bear in mind, I'm dealing with a lot of backlog here
09:25:00<Nemo_bis>SketchCow: I'm only wondering if they were delivered, there's no hurry for the processing.
11:12:00<tef>right
11:12:00<tef>now to see if I can upload these warcs to ia
12:13:00<tef>SketchCow: ok, so I have a 270 mb warc with the hn frontpage + all links, with text extracts, pdf and png snapshots, and countless amounts of ajax crap
12:14:00<tef>SketchCow: thing is it is on a remote machine inside amazon atm, I have s3access set up to internet archive, but I dunno the magic headers to add to put it in the right place/bucket
12:14:00<tef>cos the upload form doesn't work in lynx :-(
12:16:00<tef>so if someone has any idea on how to upload to ia I would be happy
12:16:00<tef>beyond downloading and uploading via my slow modem
12:30:00<alard>tef: There are some examples here, http://archive.org/help/abouts3.txt (but perhaps you've seen those already).
12:48:00<tef>alard: it's the metadata like which bucket to put it in
12:49:00<tef>i have s3cmd set up and authed to us the s3 archiv.org interface
13:20:00<godane>so i figured out how to mirror thebox.bz forums better
13:21:00<godane>this newer script grabs the forumid pages then from there it will make list of urls to grab from it
13:22:00<godane>this could also be used to mirror sites like underground-gamer alot faster
13:24:00<Nemo_bis>document on wiki then
13:32:00<ats>SketchCow: that Newnes TV pocketbook is pretty cool -- my dad (who started working as a TV engineering in the UK in the 70s) has a very battered copy of it
13:49:00<alard>tef: I don't know about s3cmd, I normally just use curl. curl -v --location --header "authorization: LOW $accesskey:$secret" --header "x-amz-auto-make-bucket:1" --upload-file $filename http://s3.us.archive.org/$item/$filename > /dev/null

14:29:00<underscor>[09:10:40] <SketchCow> I don't to move too rashly on this. I've done that in the past, not always forgood.
14:29:00<underscor>[09:11:05] <SketchCow> a part ofmewants to make it so it violates the agreement, so thousands of people commit the felony.
14:29:00<underscor>[09:11:14] <SketchCow> ok, rest
14:29:00<underscor>This would be kinda neat.
14:29:00<underscor>SketchCow: I have a bunch of non-a.o boxes that we could potentially use
14:29:00<underscor>I have the code and my listener and stuff.
14:31:00<alard>underscor: I've made an updated version of the jstor bookmarklet (they've changed a few things) that also adds a form where you can leave a message.
14:31:00<underscor>ooh, awesome
14:32:00<alard>The thing that's left is the server-side stuff, so if you volunteer...
15:12:00<emijrp>http://pdftribute.net/
15:23:00<emijrp>improving http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Aaron_Swartz
15:26:00<emijrp>add stuff
15:29:00<emijrp>more aaron
18:26:00<underscor>alard: Do you have the new bookmarklet up somewhere?
18:40:00<SketchCow>No, I wanted us to work it out
18:40:00<SketchCow>underscor: Do NOT put ANY of this on archive.org servers or services
18:40:00<underscor>SketchCow: Of course. None of it is.
18:42:00<SketchCow>I know, I just want that clear.
18:45:00<balrog_>if someone was to scan a book (say an academic treatise), could that be submitted to archive.org? I understand it probably would have to be blacked out
18:45:00<balrog_>what you're referring to is simply wrt the jstor thing, right?
18:45:00<underscor>Yeah
18:47:00<SketchCow>alard: he volunteers. Please coordinate with underscor for the bookmarklet working, and I will write verbiage for the page.
19:01:00<SketchCow>I wrote a rememberance of Aaron here. http://ascii.textfiles.com/archives/3898
19:14:00ersi nods
21:25:00<SketchCow>underscor: Lost you on skype
21:28:00<SketchCow>Wow, his network went to pooooooooooooooooooooooooop
21:28:00<balrog_>ugh :(
21:29:00<Coderjoe>oh shit. I apparently had been under a rock for three days
21:37:00<Coderjoe>Though I have never directly interacted with Aaron (and had a moment of "Why does that name sound familiar?"), I am quite stunned and saddened upon hearing of his death.
21:41:00<ersi>Hear hear.
21:42:00<balrog_>http://discountgeni.us/2013/01/13/why-am-i-so-upset-about-aaron-swartzs-suicide/
21:47:00<SketchCow>Hi, everyone.
21:47:00<SketchCow>We're this close to putting out the JSTOR liberator.
21:47:00<SketchCow>Remember, this is just for regular folks. It's not meant for us to download all of jstor in a significant time.
21:48:00<SketchCow>It's meant to let people share condolences and violate the JSTOR terms of service.
22:03:00<Coderjoe>I'm also a bit baffled at the feelings I'm having, which are about the same as a friend I had, whom I only saw a few days a year and occasionally interacted with online, who died last year of a heart attack.
22:19:00<SketchCow>---------------
22:19:00<SketchCow>ARCHIVETEAM, PLEASE USE THIS
22:19:00<SketchCow>http://aaronsw.archiveteam.org/
22:19:00<SketchCow>It's meant to work once.
22:19:00<SketchCow>Use it once (it'll stop you from using it more)
22:19:00<SketchCow>And we'll see how it is.
22:19:00<SketchCow>Then we announce it.
22:19:00<SketchCow>---------------
22:20:00<balrog_>where is the bookmarklet that you need to drag?
22:20:00<balrog_>oh there it is
22:20:00<SketchCow>Good.
22:20:00<Coderjoe>my firefox 18.0 is apparently not modern enough.
22:21:00<Coderjoe>according to the "Please wait... We are testing your browser." box
22:21:00<SketchCow>If you have other things running blocking certain stuff, it will fail.
22:22:00<balrog_>is a name or nickname mandatory?
22:22:00<SketchCow>No.
22:22:00<SketchCow>or write anonymous
22:23:00<alard>Where's underscor?
22:23:00<SketchCow>In Skype
22:23:00<SketchCow>Want him?
22:23:00<balrog_>this appears to work.
22:24:00<SketchCow>I made changes and choices, if you have questions.
22:24:00<undersco2>alard: SketchCow: ping
22:26:00<SketchCow>Last call
22:27:00<alard>No, looks fine. (Although my Chrome is choking on a 6MB pdf about big game distribution in Africa at the moment.)
22:27:00<SketchCow>Before I announce this thing. Alard? Is there an issue?
22:27:00<SketchCow>Ah.
22:27:00<SketchCow>OK.
22:27:00<alard>Update the css.
22:27:00<balrog_>looks fine to me
22:27:00<alard>I think the old one is still on there, the form looks ugly.
22:27:00<SketchCow>Can you share the link for the css?
22:27:00<undersco2>This is a fresh unpack from the tar you gave me
22:27:00<undersco2>Or, gave SketchCow
22:28:00<Coderjoe>fresh profile with no addons and it still does not change
22:29:00<undersco2>Coderjoe: And you have JS on?
22:29:00<Coderjoe>yes
22:29:00<Coderjoe>that is the default, and this is a brand new profile I just created
22:30:00<Coderjoe>the only unchecked JS option is "Raise or lower windows"
22:33:00<SketchCow>I loaded it twice and it worked the second time
22:34:00<balrog_>it worked right for me
22:34:00<Coderjoe>i just reloaded the clean profile and it worked
22:34:00<balrog_>is the "21 documents saved" updating?
22:34:00<alard>It doesn't work for me at the moment. Perhaps if I reload.
22:34:00<balrog_>since it's been sitting at that for a while
22:34:00<Coderjoe>and the second reload on my regular profile came up as approved
22:34:00<SketchCow>We've changed the verbiage so that it says it's incompatible and we're continuing work on it, instead of "not modern enough"
22:35:00<Coderjoe>(first reload just showed the new "working on it" version)
22:35:00<balrog_>yeah, but ancient browsers are "not modern enough"
22:35:00<SketchCow>Incompatible is better language
22:35:00<SketchCow>It's true, for whatever reason, it doesn't work
22:36:00<SketchCow>"not modern enough" is verbiage that makes geeks show their quills and hiss
22:36:00<balrog_>yes, unless the browser is IE6
22:36:00<alard>undersco2: Could you move the <script> thing for the test all the way to the bottom, just before </body>?
22:37:00<undersco2>Moving
22:37:00<alard>I think it's too fast: it's trying to display the 'ok' message before that part of the document is even loaded.
22:38:00<undersco2>Moved
22:38:00<SketchCow>Ok, everyone reload and try again
22:38:00<alard>Works for me now (with empty cache).
22:39:00<SketchCow>Anything left?
22:39:00<SketchCow>We can shift.
22:39:00<SketchCow>ship
22:41:00<alard>Nitpicky me would like to center the "Just liberated" list, but that's all.
22:41:00<Coderjoe>technically, shouldn't the test be invoked by an event like onload or similar?
22:44:00<SketchCow>Can't wait to see the fun
22:44:00<SketchCow>Now it begins
22:45:00<balrog_>thanks for doing this. :)
22:45:00<Nemo_bis>alard: I got sick of VirtualBox, I have to update its packages every time I update the kernel.
22:46:00<alard>Nemo_bis: So you decided to run the warrior image as the only thing on your system? ;)
22:46:00<balrog_>Nemo_bis: didn't VBox get a special blacklist entry for ultra-buggy kernel modules?
22:46:00<SketchCow>Nemo_bis: Two sacks showed up today
22:46:00<SketchCow>Holy fuck, heavy sacks
22:46:00<Nemo_bis>SketchCow: there's another one.
22:46:00<Nemo_bis>Yes, 30 kg is the max.
22:46:00<Nemo_bis>I paid 2 kg in advance.
22:46:00<Nemo_bis>alard: no, it doesn't take so much resources.
22:47:00<Nemo_bis>alard: actually, lots of CPU consumption for so little bandwidth ^^'
22:47:00<Nemo_bis>balrog_: I have to install the virtual kernel driver thingy with explicit version every time
22:47:00<alard>Contributing CPU resources is also useful, perhaps even more than bandwidth.
22:48:00<Nemo_bis>*2 kg in excess
22:48:00<Nemo_bis>alard: yes but CPU is nice to have free on the machine I use all the day long, while wasted bandwidth hurts me
22:49:00<balrog_>I need a faster machine. the little arm box I have right now struggles to run seesaw :(
22:49:00<balrog_>I have tons of bandwidth.
22:53:00<godane>i'm up to 2009 with pc games hardware magazine
22:53:00<balrog_>godane: you're scanning, right?
22:53:00<godane>going start scaning some stuff later this week maybe
23:32:00<SketchCow>"Send my love to JSTOR from Archive Team" - me to the Ars Technica guy, who's going to call JSTOR right now
23:34:00<balrog_>lol
23:35:00<balrog_>I'll say this again. thank you for doing this :)
23:35:00<SketchCow>now Talking Points Memo wants me
23:37:00<balrog_>when will you ever have some free time? ;)
