[01:23] am I the only one who buy' [01:23] s random people's photographs at yard sales just so they are safe and not end up as somebody's craft project? [01:38] No [01:38] There's a whole business in that [01:46] hah, there is money in this? :-) [01:48] Yes [01:51] i think those are called 'ghost relatives' [01:51] yay. this file has reached 51% complete [01:55] I've been wanting to start digitizing these indie/underground tapes I got (I find in the thrift store, mostly) been thinking of starting a site with my finds. [01:58] http://makepixelart.com/beta/ [02:04] neat [02:45] why do you think video games attracted such passionate archivers, and other mediums took much longer or didn't have it at all? [02:46] books were first ;) [02:48] yeah [03:35] http://imgur.com/gallery/Nylet [03:42] lol [03:42] 's important [04:35] http://i.imgur.com/YpwQ3.gif [04:35] 4 [04:36] whoa [04:38] This is not a very pretty picture >:L [04:38] http://i.imgur.com/r4HuX.png [04:50] http://imgur.com/gallery/CMnCZ [04:58] http://blackboardsinporn.blogspot.com/ [04:59] SketchCow: That's how I sit half the time [05:09] Fuck how the wayback machine handles robots.txt [05:10] >:( [05:37] http://imgur.com/gallery/NZICQ [05:38] underscor: what were you trying to access this time? [05:38] and yeah, I agree, I hate that when site ownership changes, new owners can put a robots.txt that blocks all old copies [05:38] Nothing in particular [05:38] I found that "domain parking" sites are now doing that. [05:38] Just that they can do that [05:38] balrog: been doing that for YEARS [05:38] there should be some safeguard against that :( [05:39] yep, it's been on the wayback machine wishlist for years [11:26] "600 documents saved!" [14:30] SketchCow: http://www.cracked.com/article_19453_6-reasons-were-in-another-book-burning-period-in-history.html [14:30] something i think you would like to read [15:51] Read it. [15:51] Nobody buys in [15:51] 1. It's fucking Cracked [15:51] 2. The structure is wrong [16:08] Man, I am uploading hundreds of gigs of Yahoo Video up to archive.org every day and it still feels slow. [16:08] This is a lot of data. [16:16] SketchCow: you're sure it wouldn't be better to mail a hard drive? [16:18] Uh.... [16:18] You know what, you don't know the situation, so I'll just say no. [16:18] I am as close to the infrastructure as you can get, and I'm getting transfer speeds of 40-80MB/s. [16:19] And even at 40/80MB/s, the processing, the shared machine, the whole deal - this is at breakneck. [16:27] A lot of this is that there was no standard post-download packaging script, this is what I am paying for over and over. [16:27] In some cases, it's .xz vs. .bz2, that's fine. But the naming conventions are crazy, and some people are just uploading directories with upwards of 500,000 files. [16:33] woot! wget has finished craling all 4k belios project pages (at depth 1) [16:34] why only at depth 1? [16:35] Lay of the land, I assume [16:35] just do -D "developer.berlios.de" and let it rip [16:35] it's too big.. php generated pages, possibly infinite numbers of them [16:36] this way at least we have descriptions and toplevel views of the forums etc for all projects [16:36] anyway, I hope someone will do something with forgeplucker [16:36] yea [16:36] I've got it partly working [16:37] SketchCow: in case you didn't see, we found 300 gb of belios project data available for rsync, and got it all [16:38] wow, I have 100 thousand files wgetted from berlios [16:38] at depth 1!? [16:40] yes [16:40] like I was saying [16:40] well, I did run at depth inf for a day [16:40] ah [16:41] has anyone contacted them about possibly getting a database export of some kind or such? yes, I know... pull first ask later/never. but in addition to doing the pull, someone might check to see if they would be willing to provide a dump of some kind [16:42] I emailed them. no reply yet [16:42] ok [16:44] closure: you might want to email Jörg Schilling, but note that he's known to be difficult to deal with. [16:44] yeah, I'd have to find a different email address [16:45] in fact, if someone *else* wants to mail berlios, on the off chance they filter me, please feel free [16:46] closure: I said Jorg specifically, not exactly BerliOS [18:42] closure: well, if they don't respond, then we just keep hammering their website [18:42] closure: btw, need help on anything else? [18:42] seems like some things like Sourcewell could be easily pulled [19:06] yipdw: I have not looked at sourcewell, or anything outside the basic foge/developer site [19:06] closure: ok [19:07] I'll poke at the weblogs [19:20] closure/yipdw: Anyone looking at sourcewell? If not, I'll have a go. [19:20] suggest you guys update the sections of the wiki for those things.. [19:21] That's a good idea. I should've looked there first. :) [19:28] heh [20:25] * SmartBuy Great Electronics Sale! Prices are reduced up to 50%!
