[00:51] Coders, I have a question. [00:51] Or, a request, etc. [00:51] I spent some time with xmc discussing something we could do to make things easier around here. [00:51] What we came up with is a trigger for a bot, which can be triggered by people with ops. [00:52] You tell it a website. It crawls it. WARC. Uploads it to archive.org. Boom. [00:52] I can supply machine as needed. [00:52] Obviously there's some sanitation issues, and it is root all the way down or nothing. [00:52] I think that would help a lot for smaller sites [00:52] Sites where it's 100 pages or 1000 pages even, pretty simple. [00:52] And just being able to go "bot, get a sanity dump" [02:41] I'd like to promote Musopen's new Kickstarter campaign to release all of the works of Chopin into public domain (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Musopen/set-chopin-free) Their previous campaign (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Musopen/record-and-release-free-music-without-copyrights) is available on IA here: https://archive.org/details/musopen [02:42] Give money to Musopen [02:42] they are doing god's work [02:47] can I get an amen [02:48] ah-men. [02:48] halelujah. [03:59] Promote it in -bs next time. [05:14] so, here's a start [05:14] https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/ArchiveBot [05:14] (no, it doesn't actually archive yet, but it is a bot that responds and tracks requests) [05:22] It would be good for it to log the efforts, and disallow people trying to do it over again, saying it was done. [05:26] yep [05:26] https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/ArchiveBot/issues/2 [05:33] Appreciated [13:33] so i found out the hd mp4 video i downloaded of episode 261 of tekzilla is screwed up [13:34] so thats at least 2 videos i have found video freeze then audio to go out of sync [13:52] so the hd webm format also has this bug [13:52] going to get the large mp4 video now [13:55] so looks like they all will have that problem [14:10] for episode 261 [14:13] i'm going to download the small mp4 of episode 261 to see that one doesn't have the problem [14:58] hey Famicoma [16:19] someone, grab these and archive: https://forums.spout.org/threads/you-can-haz-all-the-jars.8040/ [16:20] only a week to go [16:29] balrog: on it [21:51] If I want to upload scans of some issues of a magazine, would that be a a) new collection with each issue being an item? or would that be b) one item with all issues attached to it? [21:52] a [21:53] that's how everything else is being done, and the archive.org ui sucks for multiple files on a text item [21:53] yeah, I noticed that. so how do I create a new collection? simply specify it when uploading an item? will it be created on the fly? [21:54] pester jason or info@archive.org once you've uploaded a bunch of things [21:54] so I'll first upload them without any collection? [21:54] community texts [21:55] okay [21:56] are these computer related magazines [21:56] not really, no :) I know there's a collection for these [21:56] it's japanese street fashion magazines from around 1997-2001 (issues 1-50) [21:56] cool [21:58] mostly crazy full-page pictures from Harajuku, quite funny to look at. I don't even remember where I got these from, or why, but I wanted to upload them before the CD-R fails [21:59] but first I have to finish the Linux uploads to omf_'s FTP :) [22:00] jason has also been putting together https://archive.org/details/magazine_rack for general magazines [22:00] I wonder if it's okay to upload the magazine PDFs... the uploader is quite clear that I should only upload stuff that I have the right to share.... But I guess Jason will take a look at them and disable them if he deems it neccessary, right? [22:02] pretty much [22:02] I really doubt anyone will care [22:04] yeah, probably
