| 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 |
| 14:00:00 | <Cameron_D> | https://github.com/rememberaaronsw/rememberaaronsw |
| 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 |
| 19:14:00 | | ersi 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? ;) |
