- Tarule53, on 10/06/2008, -0/+10...and with the weekend generating a moratorium on breaking political stories, lonely diggers go back to their roots
- Zalyster, on 10/06/2008, -0/+8Looks really cool! If only my server had that much traffic...
- datagod, on 10/06/2008, -0/+8That thing is way better then I am at pong, that's for sure.
- SteveMax, on 10/06/2008, -0/+6Pity?
- kraftj, on 10/06/2008, -0/+5I really wish there was more of this nerdy stuff on Digg. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the Palin bashing, Obama cheering, and Apple fanboy articles as much as anyone, but it gets old fast.
- damntourists, on 10/06/2008, -0/+5that's actually pretty neat
- googlyguy, on 10/06/2008, -0/+5...and it plays pong.
It must be a sea of ping pong balls when your server gets dugg. - madjeff, on 10/06/2008, -0/+4Holy cow, I just had a flashback to when Digg was all about the tech stories...
- BOFH139, on 10/06/2008, -0/+3It tool is meant to be run on Desktop system displaying the logs, that is why it uses SSH to assess the data.
From the article: " ssh user@yourserver.com tail -f /usr/local/apache/log/access.log | logstalgia -" - Zaggynl, on 10/06/2008, -0/+3Digg would make for some godlike pong playing.
edit:
Someone got this to work on Arch?
during make:
resource.h: In member function ‘bool ltstr::operator()(const char*, const char*) const’:
resource.h:38: error: ‘strcmp’ was not declared in this scope - missingnoh4x, on 10/06/2008, -0/+2They should add a mode where you could have a human controlled paddle on the other side, just to see how terrible you would be at trying to be a server. :P
Anyone have any logs publicly hosted for us to play with? - ChineseDemocrat, on 10/06/2008, -1/+3... digg has changed, right ?
- ttamshadbolt, on 10/06/2008, -0/+2this will look mighty impressive when the boss walks past!
- ha3er0, on 06/16/2009, -0/+1logstalgia is running locally so it won't have any effect on the server. It is just parsing apache log on the fly; same as doing tail -f on apache.log
- inactive, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1you cannot obscure the logs with toilet paper.
- tiuk, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1That'd be quite a sight. Of course, the extra demand to display the visualization would probably bring down the server even faster...
- Vigacmoe, on 10/06/2008, -2/+3Are there publicly accessible access.logs for everyone to play with?
- andreusboy, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1How much do they pay you?
- Zaggynl, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1oh nvm, fix here:
http://code.google.com/p/logstalgia/issues/detail? ... - Twinnie, on 10/06/2008, -2/+3This is nerdy even for Digg.
- Zaggynl, on 10/06/2008, -0/+1 From the readme:
Logstalgia's display is rendered using OpenGL and requires a 3D
accelerated video card to run.
--a server with a 3d accerated video card?
As Logstalgia is designed to playback logs in real time you will
need a log from a fairly busy webserver to achieve interesting
results (eg 100s of requests each minute).
--my server makes for very VERY slow pong :( - inactive, on 10/06/2008, -1/+1what do they have for windows server
- Jerfmayne, on 10/06/2008, -0/+0Great. Now I want dip-n-dots.
- Vigacmoe, on 10/06/2008, -2/+1before you wipe?
that's gross - inactive, on 10/06/2008, -5/+4The easiest way to observe logs, in my experience, is to stand up, turn 180 degrees, and look straight down for 3-5 seconds before I wipe and flush.
- copypastry, on 10/06/2008, -3/+1you bastard you beat me to this comment by 3 minutes.
- inactive, on 10/06/2008, -3/+1Not rickroll: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtC6ZM0_m8U
- VoteGOP, on 10/06/2008, -9/+1Nerds.
- jjidi, on 10/06/2008, -10/+1Obama for President
