[23:56:37] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - South Korea's "Trial of the Century" Begins - http://sylnt.us - unleash-the-hounds
[23:23:00] <Bytram> okay, just pushed out 3 stories... that should hold us for a bit until I can get back this evening.
[23:16:22] <chromas> Need one story that contradicts the previous one
[23:15:45] <Bytram> plus an intentional topy or two?
[23:15:34] <Bytram> yep
[23:15:26] <Bytram> oh how I remember!
[23:15:25] <chromas> Gotta have more things for readers to bitch about :)
[23:15:13] <chromas> It's an old slashdot tradition anyhow
[23:14:38] <Bytram> =)
[23:14:36] <Bytram> besides I would rather have a dupe submisssion than not enough
[23:14:25] <Bytram> I mostly read only SN and Ars Technica, so it narrows down the possibilities that something is a dupe or not...
[23:14:02] <Bytram> np
[23:13:53] <Bytram> too late now.

[21:57:30] <paulej72> laters all
[21:56:36] <paulej72> been there, done that, got the stupid tshirt
[21:56:08] <mechanicjay> you should have double-spaced your C: drive first.
[21:55:23] <paulej72> the worst thing was being at 99% decompressed and runing out of space on your hard drive
[21:55:01] <cmn32480> tell 'em to get it off the FTP server
[21:52:44] <AndyTheAbsurd> now we can just mail somebody a terabyte hard drive if we really need to.
[21:52:24] <AndyTheAbsurd> what was really annoying (back about twenty years ago) was when you'd download a multi-part RAR file that would turn out to be a giant ZIP file of a multi-part tar archive (or some equally ridiculous path of compression and archiving tools)
[21:47:53] <paulej72> so there was enough other stuff to compress to make up for it
[21:47:32] <paulej72> but I did save 9GB total on that folder.
[21:47:01] <AndyTheAbsurd> compressing already-compressed stuff is often counter-productive
[21:22:39] <paulej72> well it was mostly gzips, but some other unzipped stuff, as I did not want to figure it out, just tgzed the whole folder
[21:22:18] <mechanicjay> seems like the additional space savings would be minimal -- that much data takes a while to collect into an archive regardless.
[21:21:44] <mechanicjay> is there any actual space advantage to gzipping a tar of gzips?
[21:21:44] <paulej72> then another 550GB in others :)
[21:21:09] <paulej72> 233GB out of 242GB done for this one
[21:18:38] <cmn32480> zipping a zip is not a zippy operation
[21:18:01] <paulej72> I think the problem is what I am tgzing is mostly a bunch of tgz. gzipping a gzip is not fast
[21:16:56] <cmn32480> heat it... it flows faster
[21:16:46] <paulej72> slow as snot
[21:16:39] <paulej72> I been spendign all day watching tar do its thing
[21:16:07] <paulej72> I guess "his" was too ambiguous
[21:12:07] <cmn32480> will I at least get a reach around with you scratching my balls paulej72?
