[00:58] anyways you guys are getting all video files [00:58] even if there crap and will not play [00:59] maybe one of you can fix them someday [01:43] godane: may be badly muxed, I can look into it [04:01] OK, so, tomorrow I head to germany [04:02] cool :) [04:02] estoy celoso! [04:02] that is going down on my birthday, no less [04:23] hey SketchCow [04:23] i found out alot of videos on g4tv.com maybe broken [04:24] it happens more at the ~15000 video id [08:09] OK, now it begins [08:09] 25 days or so of travel [11:37] Nemo_bis: you fixed it then? [11:40] SmileyG: no [11:40] I can't edit it [11:48] ok [11:48] which licence should it be :/ [11:48] or none? [13:31] SmileyG: what I wrote... [13:32] you can't set FDL via web, use by-sa or none [17:16] http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EuropeanPublicPolicyBlog/~3/SXJ_EisWGyg/free-raspberry-pis-for-aspiring-young.html [17:44] Hello. [17:50] Gotta' say that the things you guys do is nice. [18:16] So you guys like to rescue our shit? [18:16] thats what she said [18:16] I wonder how hard it would be to rescue Youtube. [18:17] If it went down in a few years. [18:17] a lot is lost already [18:17] Lost how? [18:17] deleted videos [18:17] Do they just remove them for no reason or is it rule violation crap? [18:18] for no reason I dont think so [18:18] Douchebags. [18:18] but they have automatically deleted stuff that dont violate nothing [18:18] Douchebags. [18:18] and a lot is lost beacue users deleted it [18:19] Eh user deletion seems more like a personal choice, but I get pissed when someone removes a video I liked, I must admit. [18:19] I read old posts at blogs and forums posts linking to deleted videos all the time [18:19] I wonder if there's anything I can do locally. I live in New Orleans and go to college. [18:19] College internet sucks though so I can't do much for archiving projects. [18:19] Is there anything I can do locally? [18:20] the warrior thing [18:21] http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=ArchiveTeam_Warrior [18:23] College internet is fun. [18:23] Loads like I'm on dial up. [18:24] heh [18:25] with the warrior you don't need a huge pipe [18:25] most of the time it's downloading lots of small pages, so it never gets up to a very high speed anyway [18:26] but we also need other things [18:26] the last couple of days we've been looking into deciphering the AOL protocol, so that we can archive the original AOL [18:26] all that takes is time and effort to puzzle things out [18:27] some notes: http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=AOL [18:27] I'm a decent programmer. [18:27] Maybe I could help going through the AOL protocol. [18:28] It looks like a fucking mess though. [18:28] I wonder when AOL will shut down. [18:28] organically grown, let's say [18:28] we think they've been neglecting it [18:28] not repairing things when they fall over and die [18:28] keyword searches don't work any more, for instance [18:29] What does AOL even do anymore? [18:29] well, they had a revenue of 2.2 billion in 2011, apparently [18:29] Yeah, but what do they do? [18:29] They'll probably end up closing AOL mail eventually. [18:30] I can see it very soon. [18:30] no idea :) [18:30] "Yeah, we're shutting this shit down. Go use gmail or something, losers." [18:30] I still use AOL mail. [18:30] That's how you know I'm old school. [18:30] heh [18:31] I guess they buy companies? They have Huffington Post now, right? [18:31] yea, according to wikipedia they also have Engadget and Techcrunch and others [18:31] plus a bunch of advertising junk [18:31] Why are they still releasing AOL Desktop? [18:31] That shit is awful. [18:32] So they generate net income via these other websites? [18:32] I'd guess. [18:32] The maintenance cost is probably next to nil, and they have a (dwindling) audience of older users who still rely on it I guess [18:33] So it's kind of like the oil field that just keeps pumping oil when nobody's around? [18:34] something like that [21:01] so i'm starting to get 500 errors when downloading g4tv.com videos [22:10] godane: is it ip specific throttling or is it the same from any ip? [22:11] i think its just me [22:11] the speed is still downloading very fast [22:12] also i have had 500 errors before [22:12] just not so many [22:12] their server might just be under high load [22:12] thats what i think [22:13] since it maybe taking off and g4rewind and other g4 fans maybe trying to save everything too [22:14] looks like i found clips form the watchmen special [22:14] 10 clips
