02:52 🔗 godane SketchCow: i'm grabbing the downloaded series on revision3
02:53 🔗 godane it stopped making episodes at episode 44
02:53 🔗 godane i also have to grab the first 25 episodes that are only on youtube
03:44 🔗 SketchCow It's an endless guessing game as to why people give Archivebot these urls.
03:50 🔗 balrog well, guidelines for what's suitable and what's not may not be a bad thing?
03:52 🔗 BlueMax is it really a bad thing if people are just grabbing single pages? sure, if people start spamming 50GB FTPs it might be a problem
03:54 🔗 DFJustin maybe it's more of a fun guessing game
04:25 🔗 yipdw I think I've seen more of the Web in #archivebot than I have otherwise seen
04:26 🔗 yipdw that might also be because I don't visit much of the Web
04:26 🔗 yipdw my main concern with some of these URLs is that I don't know if I've made it sufficiently clear that the archivebot fetchers do not have much memory to work with, and wget does not gracefully handle huge URL sets just yet
04:27 🔗 yipdw I guess I can address that with process limits
04:29 🔗 yipdw on a somewhat related note: http://wget.addictivecode.org/FeatureSpecifications/JavaScript
06:12 🔗 SketchCow Spoiler.
06:12 🔗 SketchCow https://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3Apc_cdrom&sort=-publicdate
06:12 🔗 SketchCow That's going to populate interestingly over the next few hours.
14:51 🔗 Schbirid started uploading my jamendo dbdumps
14:52 🔗 Schbirid https://archive.org/details/jamendo-dbdump_artistalbumtrack-2009 (in progress)
15:27 🔗 SketchCow As mentioned, pc_cdrom is now populated, it now has a majority of software on CD-ROM for PCs that sold anywhere near interesting numbers.
17:03 🔗 dashcloud I took a look at them a little earlier, and there's a huge number of titles there, a lot I wasn't expecting to see on IA
18:44 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, exciting.
19:23 🔗 godane SketchCow: webstock 2008 videos are uploaded
19:54 🔗 SketchCow Thank you
21:21 🔗 amerrykan SketchCow: thanks, i need to compare with what I have here locally and find a way to contribute
21:23 🔗 amerrykan i keep finding really strange PC CDROMs at thrift stores, like a korean copy of primal rage. i have so many of these things now my wife is getting a little upset.
21:23 🔗 amerrykan :)
