    Get All of Hak5 episodes

    in Everything Else

    Posted

    I need to grab all the old stuff since I just stumbled upon hak5 earlier this week. I'll be the labrat on this one, I can tell you right away by looking at it that it will not get any of the s1 apps because you forgot the wget syntax on those lines :)

    I never used a mass wget script like this so I had a slight fear that it might try and execute all the wgets at once. I did a quick test script with just 3 episodes and they do go 1 and a time. So just add the wget before the s1 urls and the download part will work fine. I am going to do it now and I'll let you know if the other scripts work once I get to that point.

    For the newbs out there, this will not work on windows unless your using cygwin...

    Simply copy/paste the code into a new document using vi, nano, pico, etc save it, chmod +x to give it execute permissions, then run it with ./filename (unless you put in your bin dir, not recommended since the script will download the files to the dir that the script resides in)

    Thanks for the scripts JohnyCake, this will save me some time for sure.

    I rented the apartment directly below mine to use as office space. This way I can leach off the 50Mbit internet and it makes for an easy commute. Excuse the mess and the bad quality, I used my phone to take these pictures.

    Here is my Desk:

    That is 6 22" dell lcd's

    The left two screens are my Linux box (opensuse 11.1 32bit on core 2 e7300, 4gb ddr2 800, nvidia 7950GT)

    The top middle and top right is my doze machine (xp sp3 32bit on quad core Q6600, 4gb ddr2 1066, ati HD 4850, 300GB WD Velociraptor)

    The bottom middle and bottom right is my hackintosh (10.5.6 on core 2 e8500, 4gb ddr2 800, nvidia 8800GTX)

    I run synergy to share the single keyboard and mouse with all 3 machines - it also shares my clipboard

    (shares over network, you select which machine to control via mouse position, when you hit the edge of one monitor it will auto-switch to the next computer - very cool stuff http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/)

    Keyboard is a Das Keyboard, 2nd gen, blank keys, mouse is a Logitech G9

    Here is my 2nd desk, behind me

    That is where I work on customer machines, in the picture is a customers Sony that I just reformatted. That is one of my laptops, its a travelmate 6292

    Here is my business partners rig

    One machine, 3 22" samsung LCD's, I don't recall his specs but I am pretty sure he spent around 5k on the hardware. He runs Vista sp1 32bit.

    This is my administrative assistants desk - above it is our 50" samsung plasma flanked by Niles speakers, above the center channel is a Wii bar :)

    Hello Hak5 forum goers. I came across a link to a Hak5 episode in another forum and now I am hooked. Very good podcast. I have watched about 10 episodes and now I am checking out the various community portals. I signed on to the IRC channel on mint, it looks like there is one on rev3 as well, what gives with that? Well I will get my idle on. Not much chatting going on right now over there so I thought I would check out the forums.
