00:01 🔗 BlueMax THY SECRET WORD IS 'yahoosucks' M'LORD
00:38 🔗 tmesis oh my, why does Yahoo suck now?
00:38 🔗 tmesis other than poching David Pogue
00:41 🔗 phillipsj second PRISM participant after MSN.
00:54 🔗 zenguy_pc do you guys post to usenet as well?
00:55 🔗 andy0 URL team Tracker down (http://urlteam.terrywri.st/)
00:55 🔗 andy0 Who is the point of contact?
00:57 🔗 BlueMax andy0, /join #urlteam
00:58 🔗 andy0 posted there already :)
00:58 🔗 phillipsj ...but did not get an immediate response.
01:10 🔗 Lord_Nigh slate had a blog post very critical of fullscreenmario; afaik its still up but i freshened my local copy of its git source tree
01:10 🔗 Lord_Nigh https://github.com/Diogenesthecynic/FullScreenMario
01:14 🔗 odie5533 think full screen mario will get DMCAd?
01:27 🔗 odie5533 TotalBiscuit got DMCAd for posting a critical review
01:27 🔗 odie5533 YouTube is probably rife with wrongly DMCAd uploaders, but there's way too much stuff to possibly back it up without knowing what will go down
01:40 🔗 dashcloud back up what you think is important, and if you don't know how, ask
02:05 🔗 Lord_Nigh odie5533: totalbiscuit's video was restored eventually
02:44 🔗 odie5533 Lord_Nigh: in his followup, he mentioned how there are tons of other YouTubers that don't have the clout to restore their videos
02:58 🔗 Lord_Nigh yep
02:58 🔗 Lord_Nigh the idiocy that sega did to push their new shining force game by DMCAing all the videos rated higher than theirs
02:59 🔗 Lord_Nigh they actually killed off 2 or 3 channels that way by triple-dmca'ing people's lets play series' and stuff
02:59 🔗 Lord_Nigh never restored afaik
02:59 🔗 Lord_Nigh i'm still not sure why sega was never punished for that
03:22 🔗 odie5533 Lord_Nigh: because the people they push around have no ability to stop them
03:28 🔗 DFJustin there have been cases where third parties use youtube's takedown system to take stuff down they don't have any connection to http://savemiku.wikia.com/
03:29 🔗 DFJustin so if youtube can't even stop that, pushing back against a big company is going to be low on the list
03:43 🔗 Emcy youtube actually has private agreements with certain entities to pull videos
03:43 🔗 Emcy which bypasses what little safeguards there are in DMCA
03:43 🔗 Emcy like the record labels for one
03:44 🔗 odie5533 they aren't legally required to keep any video up. But if they keep policing videos, they should lose their safe harbor status
03:44 🔗 odie5533 frankly I don't think they should qualify at all for safe harbor since they are making strong efforts to moderate their content
03:47 🔗 odie5533 http://www.ericgoldman.org/Articles/websiteliabilityalert.htm under "Do Not Actively Monitor the Website"
07:37 🔗 * ivan` just notices the new? wayback feature to add a page to wayback instantly (the /record/ link)
08:00 🔗 godane can anyone know load this for me: http://web.archive.org/web/20070626122847/http://zdpub.vo.llnwd.net/o2/dltv/episode006/dl.tv.006.mp4
08:00 🔗 odie5533 ivan`: have a link?
08:03 🔗 godane its stopping at 48kb
08:03 🔗 godane i checked the file and from what i can tell it is a mp4 header
08:04 🔗 godane even file command will say its a mp4 file
08:05 🔗 odie5533 stops for me too
08:05 🔗 godane :-(
08:06 🔗 godane it was the only hope for there being a video copy of that episode
08:09 🔗 ivan` odie5533: put any URL into wayback that isn't already archived and you'll see it
08:09 🔗 ivan` big yellow box on the resulting page
08:10 🔗 odie5533 I dont have any unscanned urls! :<
08:11 🔗 odie5533 found one!
08:11 🔗 odie5533 neat
08:13 🔗 odie5533 wow, it works for any url
09:53 🔗 n00b684 hi guys. newcomer to the archiveteam world
09:53 🔗 n00b684 quick question on the current set of projects
09:53 🔗 n00b684 is there anything active at the moment?
09:55 🔗 ivan` no big tracker-based grabs at this time that I know of
09:56 🔗 ivan` archivebot development and grabbing is always going on
09:56 🔗 n00b684 so just a good idea to keep the warriors running?
09:56 🔗 ivan` I guess, something will be active soon enough
09:57 🔗 n00b684 thansk
09:57 🔗 n00b684 thanks
10:31 🔗 ivan` twitter's exclusion from wayback makes me sad
10:44 🔗 Nemo_bis ivan`: uh, why was it excluded
10:46 🔗 ivan` I don't know
10:52 🔗 Nemo_bis Finally uploading first batch of 500 GB to https://archive.org/details/ftp-ftp.hp.com_pub-2013-10 (tar.xz and tar.lrz)
18:32 🔗 Nemo_bis weird, the he.net link is not overloaded today https://monitor.archive.org/weathermap/weathermap.html
18:32 🔗 Nemo_bis I'm downloading and uploading very happily
18:40 🔗 Nemo_bis is someone with some RAM/fast disk wants to do some tar -cf $i.tar $i ; lrzip -lU $i.tar , there is quite a storage saving opportunity https://archive.org/details/ftp-ftp.hp.com_ftp1 ( automatic.zip IZIP I14.3 GB -> automatic.tar.lrz I2.8 GB )
18:40 🔗 Nemo_bis (you need as much memory as the file is big, or to first tar and then compress using -U )
19:11 🔗 deathy that sounds interesting. Ok to try on catia.zip/graham.zip ? (not that much ram.. )
19:17 🔗 Nemo_bis deathy: sure :)
19:41 🔗 deathy odd.. "invalid option -- 'U'", wonder if I have an old version of it..
19:43 🔗 deathy sizes: 5.9G ./catia.zip; 6.1G ./catia.tar; 3.9G ./catia.tar.lrz
19:47 🔗 Nemo_bis I have lrzip version 0.614
19:48 🔗 deathy yeah, old one here, 0.44. Still very nice savings
19:55 🔗 deathy Nemo_bis: so.. where/how do I put this now? ..
20:12 🔗 odie5533_ Is alard here ever?
20:16 🔗 Nemo_bis deathy: a test item on archive.org?
20:19 🔗 deathy yeah, haven't actually uploaded anything yet to archive.org, any preferred way? ( shell if possible.. )
20:22 🔗 Nemo_bis deathy: http://www.archive.org/help/abouts3.txt
20:23 🔗 Nemo_bis otherwise I can put them in the original item if you publish them somewhere on the internet :)
20:31 🔗 deathy so I can do a curl S3-like upload with random test item folder name and give you the link?
20:40 🔗 Nemo_bis deathy: yes
20:49 🔗 deathy Nemo_bis: curl upload seems to have finished, sent to http://s3.us.archive.org/deathy-s3-test-13/catia.tar.lrz
21:02 🔗 Nemo_bis deathy: dowloaded
21:03 🔗 Nemo_bis ouch, on my test I got Failed to malloc ckbuf in hash_search Cannot allocate memory Fatal error - exiting
21:04 🔗 deathy when you tried compressing or?
21:14 🔗 deathy done also graham.zip, sizes: 5.1G ./graham.zip; 5.1G ./graham.tar; 4.0G ./graham.tar.lrz
21:16 🔗 ersi Hmmm, I wonder how people find us/this place. Especially "now" (It's been a lot of newcomers in the last week IMO)
21:17 🔗 Nemo_bis https://code.google.com/p/httparchive/issues/detail?id=332
21:18 🔗 DFJustin isohunt generated a lot of interest I think
21:19 🔗 Nemo_bis deathy: yes, when compressing; graham is a 404 for me
21:19 🔗 touya yet failed :(
21:19 🔗 ersi DFJustin: Oh yeah
21:19 🔗 Nemo_bis touya: or because of, rather
21:19 🔗 touya there just wasn't enough time
21:21 🔗 touya did anyone read the thing one of the tpb founders said? that tpb needs to die so that better things can evolve
21:21 🔗 touya yet, torrent resources continue to die while tpb is the only public source still sailing strong
21:21 🔗 ersi Yes, I did. But that's a discussion for #archiveteam-bs IMO.
21:21 🔗 touya sorry, k
21:22 🔗 ersi np, just sayin'. (Want to keep this channel on-topic about archiving/saving things)
21:23 🔗 touya well, to be more on topic then: obviously the most severe threat is against content that is protected by copyright shit
21:23 🔗 touya especially riaa/mpaa
21:25 🔗 ersi nope.
21:25 🔗 touya not?
21:25 🔗 touya what then?
21:27 🔗 deathy Nemo_bis: just finished uploading graham few seconds ago, should be at http://s3.us.archive.org/deathy-s3-test-13/graham.tar.lrz
21:30 🔗 DFJustin touya: user-generated content that doesn't have millions of physical copies printed
21:36 🔗 touya DFJustin: usually it's only threatened if popular
21:37 🔗 DFJustin if you look at the wiki though there have been a lot of cases like geocities where unpopular content gets unceremoniously yanked because no one feels like maintaining the site anymore after a corporate acquisition etc.
21:38 🔗 ersi touya: Most of our archival projects have been sites shutting down, because someone said "Fuck it, let's kick the bucket" in one way or another. Almost none of those have been because of IP/Copyright/whatnot
21:38 🔗 touya ersi: yes, i am aware of that (geocities like)
21:39 🔗 touya but this environment changes, too
21:39 🔗 DFJustin if riaa yanks a metallica youtube there are still tons of cds and dvds in circulation so it's not lost to history, the same is not true of some guy's machinima on yahoo video or whatever
21:39 🔗 ersi See, this turned into a #archiveteam-bs discussion right away
21:39 🔗 DFJustin :)
21:39 🔗 ersi Because we're not talking doing archivation. We're talking about silly stuff.
21:40 🔗 touya nono.. i don't want to talk about "let's save this copyrighted song/video/whatever"
21:40 🔗 joepie91 I believe -bs includes auxiliary non-practical discussion on the topic of archiving?
21:40 🔗 ersi This discussion, should not be in here.
21:40 🔗 ersi joepie91: Yes.
21:40 🔗 joepie91 not just non-archiving topics
21:40 🔗 touya hai joepie91. maybe you can help
21:40 🔗 ersi touya: Join #archiveteam-bs
21:40 🔗 touya like the stuff par-anoia had. no claim on that whatsoever
21:40 🔗 ersi We are all there
21:40 🔗 touya it's 100% legal
21:41 🔗 touya yet... if someone is interested in taking it down by legal means, it can probably be done
21:41 🔗 joepie91 touya: should probably move discussion to -bs, and I should also note that I have very limited time right now
21:41 🔗 joepie91 and am technically under work time
21:41 🔗 touya k
