is there even any interest om archving RS/MU though? |

🔗
|
gui77 |
most of it is either warez, or personal files that are irrelevant to anyone but the owner |
|
00:48
🔗
|
gui77 |
and even if you want to archive the warez, legal issues aside, it would be useful because most of it is uploaded in passworded .rar files (the passwords are given out in the forums/sites that provide the links) |
|
00:48
🔗
|
gui77 |
so you would end up with petabytes of duplicated information (there must be thousands of copies of a popular movie at RS or MU) which is passworded, and thus useless |

what might be a decent archive effort would be, maybe, .torrent sites. you could archive/index different torrents and save the .torrent file, allowing it to be saved and re-used in the future - if you're interested in backing up such sites |

On 18 January the Supreme Court of the United States upheld the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA), which may result in the deletion of thousands of files on Wikimedia Commons published outside the US between 1923 and 1977. The community is discussing appropriate action to take. |

it seems to be more successful at reading disks than the kryoflux even although that may be down to a crappy pc 5.25" drive |

caveats: copy protected disks don't work, and in my experience you need a pc with a real serial port, the usb serial is crap (at least the one I got) |

certainly there are probably business and technical reasons why MySQL has no similar feature, but I think the fact that server-side encryption is completely useless in a user-generated content setting also has something to do with it |

yep, they had a lot of their DBs available for free in the last years, but for VMS/VAX you maybe still needed a PAK to activate it, I guess. That's what I wanted to find out. |
