archive of the old /prog/

Name: Anonymous 2013-11-02 2:15

So I got my hands on this 1-gigabyte file which has all of the old /prog/ up to some date in august 2013:

1.4G prog-20130813130608.db

(it's 55mb when compressed)

Big thanks to the anonymous person who published this (though the original url is gone now)

I wonder if it should be shared somehow for posterity. maybe some other people here also have this file ? Somehow I doubt archive.org would want it, what with all the racist posts.

also i wrote a little python program to browse that file via a local HTTP interface

Anyway also big thanks to whoever starte /prog/rider as a resurrection of the old /prog/

1.4GB compressed to 55MB
Somehow, I'm not very surprised by this. I wonder why.

Because it's easy to compress text.

BTW I wrote a little python/flask app to browse the "prog.db" file via local HTTP. It has a feature to search for a string in all posts and sort results by date, so you can find out when a meme first appeared. Optionally, you can include the original javascript and CSS from dis.4chan.org to get spoiler-tags to work and have the original colours etc. (Yes, flask probalby sucks, but this little program is useful for browsing the archive.) Hope this is useful to other people.

here's a screenshot where it shows the history of the meme "faggot quote": http://i.imgur.com/bmipLQP.png

Goddamn, what's wrong with

$ sqlite3 prog.db

I felt like going to the old /prog/, >>1-san.

You could have posted that whole thread here.

"What does it mean to be normal?" rhetorically asked the doctor. The doctor pounded his chest and said, "I am normal ! I am the doctor ! I am eternal !". An Indian man 4000 years ago wrote down that I am normal ! I am the doctor! he who installs .NET installs the truth. the wheel spun and several thousand dollars were contributed towards the most prestigiuous instutition prized for its cliques of suburban children. who needs god when you can install .NET ?

can we officially fork world4ch /prog/ now?

I don't think this board software is that scalable.

Why does everyone put spoilers around /prog/. I think it's a maymay too but how did that start?

Fork a clusterfuck of PHP? No, thanks. Get working on SchemeBB instead.

It's been like that since the implementation of the captcha.

Check the onion link posted in this thread for another search engine based on a kinda recent snapshot.

It's been broken since the 15th of September. The CAPTCHA was introduced a few weeks earlier.

But I wasn't asking about faggot quotes. I was asking about putting spoilers when mentioning /prog/

What does s/something/something mean? I always see it on /prog/ and Hacker News and I've been bugged by this for months but I have no idea how to Google it.

's/foo/bar' is a substitution command for the unix program sed. here's an example log:

$ echo 'a funny joke' | sed 's/joke/clown/'
a funny clown

Why is it that there are 9 people in the swarm and I'm not seeding the file at all?

If you want to seed that badly, I'll download it.

Be sure to use I2P if you are torrenting, or a VPS.

Why? Would I compromise any of you if I download it from my home connection?

Name: >>8 2013-11-10 22:36

I'm still seeding from a VPS. You are free to download it from wherever you want.

Because anyone can record IP address if you are joining the magnet link, even a bot…

There's a smart poster.

I already know that, but I don't care much about giving out some IP that changes every day. Moreover, we're not sharing anything illegal, are we?

No, this is not a ``nothing to hide, nothing to fear'' argument, I just don't see why go through such lengths just to download 1GB of ANUS and chinkspam. I can't pay a good VPS/seedbox because I don't have a credit card and I'm not sure if there are any free VPSs you can trust.

If you want I can put it up on a Tor hidden service too as a simple http download.

Then use I2P like I said. Unless you are willing to host your own GNUnet ECRS or Freenet Address Resolution Keys after you have downloaded it (even though I have FrozenVoid's copy).

Also, here you can get a no-strings attached credit card:

And I have a list of VPS service providers, even free ones somewhere in South America. I am just not ready to share until I found the one in Antigua, or ones Intellectually Property sane, listed on this thread:

I totally missed that part where you suggested using I2P. Forgive me for my mental retardation.

But I'd like to accept >>37-san's offer. I already have the Tor bundle.
