It is important for you to have a posi- tive online reputation and to show you are very active online. Analyse the pieces of digital information below. If you could have set a digital expiry date, i.e. a time for the information to be deleted, would you have? If so, what year would you have set it for?" [15:06] Hello! [15:07] What is the process for alerting everyone that a site looks like it may go away in the future, and scraping it is going to take a really really long time? [15:08] Just tell us in here! [15:08] really really long time? bring it up here [15:08] it will require more work than just feeding it to the bot :/ [15:10] Last.fm has been losing staff at a fairly rapid rate, and they're probably going to be turning off their streaming in favour of a youtube-based thing. [15:10] I have horrid feelings that they don't have long left. [15:11] But given the size of the site, scraping it will take a very long time. [15:13] Is there a way of getting it onto some kind of watchlist? How do you decide which sites need archiving? [15:13] we've had them on watch for a while... [15:13] but no one's mentioned them [15:13] in a few months [15:14] Right. Well, it might be worth looking a little closer. [15:15] There's a lot of interest in that data Not Going Away, from both users and the research community. [15:16] Will note [15:17] If there's anything I can do to help it get archived do let me know. [15:26] jjt: stick around [15:26] things tend to happen very quickly once they start happening, but it's a case of someone figuring out how to do it [15:29] i'm going after the missing section of forums.winamp.com that i forgot about [15:29] i was downloading it but cause of my nfts or thunar crash i had to rebot [15:29] *reboot [15:29] so i'm redoing it since it was incomplete [15:57] MESS 0.151 Software List CHDs [15:57] done 1366224.4 MB Rate: 77.0 / 0.0 KB Uploaded: 86759.3 MB [ R: 0.06] [15:57] datsa spicy meatball [16:18] jjt: you should add this info to http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Last.fm [16:20] hmm have there even been any softlist chd updates since 0.149 [16:21] looks like ibm5170_cdrom was added [16:22] btw on the software list stuff, it would be nice to include the hash/*.xml files from the corresponding version of mess, as a love note to the future [16:23] the filenames can be pretty opaque [17:12] jjt: this might also be handy to have on speed dial (bookmarks): https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1jAzdEfsAGNzzVQpDisNDuJHk_kjCUIXV2nCpKsPAL0I/viewform [17:44] http://xowa.sourceforge.net/ - i presume we have these already? [17:49] https://archive.org/details/wikimediadownloads [17:50] gj :) [17:53] hmm it's nice to see a new alternative to wikitaxi which isn't being updated anymore, but the disk space requirement is dramatically higher for no good reason [21:03] http://www.bierdopje.com/forum/mededelingenforum/topic/16444-Bierdopje-com-stopt-per-direct-met-ondertiteling/1 [21:03] fuck... [21:05] PepsiMax: I'm unsurprised :( [21:05] any way they can to fuck over the consumer [21:18] What do??? [21:22] nevermind, too late [21:22] they already got rid of the intresting stuff befoer they blogged aboyt it
