@thatonepony that's just what I was thinking. right. I'll need to go find a sufficiently large hard drive first though. Minti said the complete SFW torrent wouldn't fit on his 1 TB drive.

*yawn* Hello...

@derpyshy lol goodmorning again lol

@noirbatch x3 how's you?
-
@derpyshy Sickly lol you?
-
@noirbatch *sneezes* Good :3 going to eat whatever now
-
@noirbatch And get better naow! :c
-
@noirbatch I hope you feel better soon! My dad and I talked about shamanistic healing today. He uses rose-quarts and one other type of stone I don't rememebr as a means to promote health.
-
@derpyshy I will lol, go eat :D
-
@pony Oh neat ^-^ and thank you friend! What are you up to now?
-
@noirbatch thinking about what to do next. Maybe I'll read some FiM-fiction.. You?
-
@noirbatch I will :P but only if you get better >:c
-
@pony Do it! I am just laying down in bed trying to sleep lol
-
@derpyshy I will try
-
@lyrica sounds like a Trixie fic? I'll look for it. I don't mind if it isn't finished. I hate when i forget to go read the rest as it comes out though.
-
@noirbatch *eats toast* ^-^ #getbetter-werehugs
-
@noirbatch You find chatting on RDN relaxing then?
-
@pony actually yes ^_^
derpyshy / chem likes this. -
@lyrica hmm.. Well then I guess it could be about anypony.. maybe Twilight.. What's it about generally?
-
@noirbatch cool :3 Do you read fan fiction?
-
@pony a Changling trying to fit in in Ponyville after the failed invasion (it follows "Mirror" (the one who pinkie told she's seen better before getting her Twilight Cannon) after she crashes in ponyville (and breaks her horn and leg) and initially hides her Changelingness but later Pinkie and Fluttershy find out and keep her secret as she trys to fit in. It's actually one of my favorite stories
-
@lyrica Can you give us a link? :3 I have barely read any fics...
-
-
@pony Not as much as I used to ^_^
-
@derpyshy sure, one sec
-
@noirbatch Is it your back? :c
-
@lyrica okie ^_^
-
-
@derpyshy allergies, wicked bad headache, and back lol
-
@lyrica cute! I've thought a changeling story would make a great fic! thanks for the link
-
@derpyshy awesome, and there's a new chapter :D *reads*
-
@noirbatch Do you mostly enjoy the social aspect of the fandom then, or do you do other things as well like collect pony art, listen to music, etc?
-
@pony I collect a crap load of music, pics, and finfics.. Just haven't read in a while XD
-
@noirbatch I see! I hadn't considered actually collecting the fics, but now that you mention it maybe I'll start.. just the ones I've read at least.
-
@noirbatch oh yeah! that reminds me! I'mma start downloading the mother of all FiM pic collections now! http://www.ponibooru.org/endofanera.html !ponyfolder
-
@pony Do it :D I have over 2GB of pony music, and maybe 5000 pony pics at least a third of it is Applejack... Not obsessed *twitch*
-
@lyrica Thanks ^_^
-
@noirbatch awe...
-
@derpyshy what? D:
-
@noirbatch huh? Why the sadface?
-
@noirbatch haha! not obsessed at all! My core collection is roughly 6000 pics, but after I finish integrating the massive archive I recently downloaded it will grow by about 25k.. Together my folder and that archive total about 16 MB. I've heard that the safe pics alone from ponibooru total 25 MB. That'll be one heck of a collection.
-
@pony High rated safe pictures alone is 22gb. ALL safe pictures is more than 1tb, and that's just the safe pictures.
-
@pony We are ponybooru XD I need to find the ones on my previous HDD. I had at least 2000 lol
-
@minti Oh dear Luna... I only have space for the highly rated then.
-
@pony Yeah, I have 1tb free and the torrent for all images wouldn't let me add it so yeah. xD I've downloaded all of the "high rated" ones though. Seeding currently. ^_^
-
@minti Somehow I doubt that.
-
@minti excellent!! Do you know the size of all unrated and all questionable pics?
-
@redenchilada http://i.imm.io/t6Dh.png No modifications to site what so ever.
-
@minti That's an old error, that's part of this Statusnet version
-
@mrdragon Well it's still there, and annoying. I've been blaming it on the error I get when ever I post notices. xD
-
@minti I was referring to the "Ponibooru's safe archive is >1 TB" thing.
-
@noirbatch I would like a quality collection more as the whol stuff on ponibooru - there was much really, really bad stuff there and you often had to dig for your gems.
-
@hakupony indeed it was a journey lol
-
@minti 6.3% done on the high ranking safe pics torrent :<
-
@minti yeah I find that error annoying too.. and the one I get when favoriting notices.
-
@redenchilada Oh, this is what I get for not checking context.
-
@redenchilada And uh well, I don't have enough space on my 1TB left drive for the full torrent to preallocate all the files so...
-
@minti Ah I see! so maybe I will be able to download the full set of unrated and questionable pics. I'm thinking there may be some gems that never got popular/highly rated.
-
@minti again.. dear Luna that's a lot of pony. I'm afraid to go out and buy the drive necessary because it will mean I'll have to sort through the whole thing
-
@pony Yeah, have fun sorting that. XD
-
@thatonepony Maybe we should work out the structure for dividing thoroughly before beginning?
-
@minti I'm just doin' some math here. searching rating=s on Ponibooru brings up 13892*12 = ~166704 images. Searching "rating=s filesize<2048000" yields 13231*12 = ~158772 images under ~2MB, totalling 27.09 GB at most. In order to reach 1TB, the remaining 166704-158772 = ~7932 images would need to be an average of (1024-27.09)/7932 = >128MB/image on average. (wow, doing math to estimate torrent sizes, I must have no life)
-
@thatonepony I'll seriously do it though if I'm not alone.. if you want to.
-
@redenchilada Yeah that honestly makes no sense. Know a way of getting total torrent sizes without actually LOADING the torrent?
-
@thatonepony I'm a recovering porn addict and wouldn't be able to help with the explicit pics.. as much as my sultry mind would love to.
-
@thatonepony I simply won't own any explicit pics. I'm sorry if that's a deal breaker D:
-
@thatonepony lol.. it seems like the explicit collection is much much smaller than the SFW collection. I'll take up extra duty somewhere else if it helps
-
@thatonepony Well -you could tell it when you are flirting. "Did you know I was the guy who saw all the pony porn?"
-
@thatonepony Yeah I can't wait to get started actually, but figuring out how to sort them will be a feat in and of itself. Any ideas how to start? I have a bit of experience with sorting large collections, but nothing this large
-
@thatonepony Maybe it's so bad it's good :)
-
@thatonepony I agree. I don't want to keep all of them. Are you thinking of downloading the full sets or only the highly rated? I was thinking it might be easiest if we sort them by their tags first too.
-
@lyrica @thatonepony holy heck! it's larger than 1.5TB!! Well I've gotta know how big it is or I can't buy the appropriate hardware.
