Exporting Chrome History (with the “new” configuration and state file structure), and Epoch dates on various systems

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/05/02

Quite a while ago, Chrome moved from a structure based on “Current Session“, “Current Tabs“, “Last Session” and “Last Tabs” into “Session_#################” and “Tabs_#################” stored in a “Sessions” folder (and similar migrations for other state and configuration files).

The numbers in the “Session_*” and “Tabs_*” files are time stamps of those sessions, for instance one needs to figure out what the “13310808970819630” in “Session_13310808970819630” and “Session_13310808970819630” means.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail turns 50 – Ars Technica

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/05/02

It first I thought “I didn’t know they had birthday on my birthday”, but then found out the article [Wayback/Archive] Monty Python and the Holy Grail turns 50 – Ars Technica got published on my birthday.

In fact Monty Python and the Holy Grail got released on 19730403 in London, and towards the end of April in the USA.

Dutch audio fragment of mid april about the anniversary: [Wayback] mp3 on [Wayback/Archive] Erik van Muiswinkel over 50 jaar Monty Python and the Holy Grail | NPO Radio 1 is great.
