Tools to make your own local mirror of all the flash clips at z0r.de and keep them up-to-date. Totally worth it.
http://www.z0r.de/ is a site where flash loops are collected. It's pointless, it's absurd, it's awesome.
I'm doing a z0r-marathon with friends. And if you want to click through a lot (currently 4880) flash clips in a reasonable amount of time, you want them to load fast. So I mirrored them locally and built a small html page that loads them in an iframe. I also build a GTK GUI that shows the clips (using webkit). That GUI can be controlled via keyboard (arrow keys) or telnet or the remote control GUI.
I did this project in three steps:
- have a stupid idea
- do it anyways
- massively overdo it
