[00:09] so i found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-British-Chess-Magazine-1881-1908-on-DVD-ROM-/140992849729 [00:10] this is most likely in pubic domain [02:59] SketchCow, I have been working on some drafts for new wiki pages. One is a FAQ like page and the other is a beginners guide to ArchiveTeam http://pad.archivingyoursh.it/p/faqs http://pad.archivingyoursh.it/p/things_you_should_know You have any specific points you want me to add? I know you mentioned a while back you wanted more docs on the wiki to get people into archiveteam projects [03:02] Everyone else chime in if you have questions you want answered [03:31] might be wise if someone checked the WARCs that are being returned from the Xanga grab at the moment. [03:31] there's a lot of 0MB jobs and a huge increase in the rate of returns. [03:32] I am on it [03:33] aawww fuck [03:33] I fucking knew this might happen [03:34] omf_: warriors getting banned? [03:34] GLaDOS especially, their empty jobs are most certainly not. [03:36] the server is being a bitch [03:40] ah well, least it's easy to see where it started being flakey [03:51] alard, is the megawarc application python 2 or 3? [03:54] omf_: I'm actually more inclined to believe that SilSte and GLaDOS have been banned, more than the server being flakey [03:54] every job from SilSte is 0MB, and I'm guessing that GLaDOS is running several warriors, only some of which have been banned [03:54] I have not even had a chance to check the warcs coming in to see if they are valid. I am not jumping to the banning conclusion yet [07:41] When I was at home, glados was returning some valid [07:41] you realise me and glados are running 300 threads each right? [07:42] This is just like when underscor or Cameron_D goes crazy too [07:42] except it's both of us [07:42] the small ones all get returned exceptionally fast, appearing as if they are broken. [07:42] It maybe better if the tracker page could show size in KB if it's lower than 1Mb [07:42] or 0.x MB [07:43] And notice most of the warrior grabs from others are also 0MB [07:46] -rw-rw-rw- 1 nobody nogroup 35K Jun 26 08:43 xanga.com-zzzzxd-20130626-084251.warc.gz [07:47] 3500 35K-36K warcs in the packing queue atm [07:49]

Object moved to here.

[07:49] Object moved [07:49] [07:49] Lots of that [07:49] 20 redirections and it gives up [07:50] So is that banned, or just 'dead'/'odd' users? [07:50] signin lock... [07:51] or a bug? [07:56] is anyone backing up http://atom.services.livejournal.com/atom-stream.xml ;) ? [08:18] * Smiley ponders if thats going to be a list of all active usernames [11:20] SketchCow: looks like i found a hak5 epsiode with you in it [11:31] Are there problems with xenga? [16:11] Smiley, it is a bug, probably in the grab software since I could not reproduce it when I manually wget xanga sites or with a web browser [17:06] omf_: hmmmm ok odd [22:49] What does AT think about saving/dumping all stock ringtones that come with phones and have a website to download them as MP3 and other compatible formats, along with some information on each one(what phone it came from...) [22:50] I think it would be a pretty neat project. I can't remember if I asked this here before. [22:52] Nostalgic feelings when you hear that old Motorola RAZR jingle or Nokia ngage tone. [22:59] sounds like a project to me [23:03] go for it [23:03] what about pre-MP3/WAV ringtones, like old nokias and shit? [23:10] it's unlikely that any phone ever used anything else [23:10] hmm... maybe recording devices or rom dump? I don't know much about that stuff, though. [23:10] I guess if they were really desperate for space then mu-law or a-law would have been an option [23:11] but for the most part I'd expect them to be PCM data (wav is just pcm with a header) [23:11] arkhive: yes, the best way to go would be to look into the firmware images [23:12] which an excellent thing to archive in their own right, but not something we've gone after in a systematic way before [23:13] db48x: early monophonic phones used a very different format [23:13] and some phones didn't have installable ringtones at all [23:13] db48x: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_Multi-Rate_audio_codec [23:15] Getting old phones for free off of Craigslist would be easy. And electronic recycling events . [23:15] DFJustin: that's for voice, not music or general sound [23:15] winr4r: yea, thus trawling through firmware images with binwalk [23:15] it was widely used for ringtones as well [23:16] hmm [23:16] http://www.mikekohn.net/file_formats/ringtonetools.php [23:16] has information on formats [23:16] may be useful
