19:14 🔗 db48x recursive archives
19:16 🔗 db48x mmm, lots of different directory structures
19:16 🔗 SketchCow If someone wants to clean it up, I'll gladly replace the set.

21:19 🔗 alard No chance for an ArchiveTeam grant.
21:19 🔗 db48x ah, but they can be used for "preserving and improving access to born-digital sources"
21:37 🔗 DFJustin dir.txt.gz in POETRYDOTCOM-02.tar.bz2 contains a bunch of encyclopediadramatica stuff
21:37 🔗 db48x yea, I noticed
22:01 🔗 DFJustin also I don't see http://interbutt.com/misc/lulupoetry_4805000-4899999_incomplete.rar in there

22:58 🔗 SketchCow rsync.net is pushing over terabytes of stuff for me to ingest as well.
22:59 🔗 Paradoks Yay! Finally rsyncing my Google Groups downloads. Trying to upload it from a Windows box was much harder than shuffling files around and doing it from a linux box.
23:09 🔗 chronomex or network-mount the windows disk on a linux box, and rsyncing from the linux box
23:09 🔗 chronomex that's how I do it
