[02:23] <Stilett0> well, it's a good first step at reconstruction at least: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=347343#p347343
[02:24] <Stilett0> but it seems theres some other issues: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=357590#p357590
[04:35] <garyrh> https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7724444
[04:44] <DFJustin> agree 100% on this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7724469
[04:45] <DFJustin> I want a desktop BookReader :(
[05:59] <yipdw> garyrh: we're ArchiveBotting Quora
[05:59] <yipdw> I'm not sure if it's getting anything but the "you must log in" page
[05:59] <yipdw> but it does seem to be getting something
[06:00] <yipdw> and in the case that it hasn't, we've wasted 75 GB of their bandwidth, which I guess is pretty cool
[06:41] <Spring> Hey, does anyone know what the most recent backup of userscripts.org is?
[06:41] <Spring> It's been down for the past 5 days
[06:44] <DFJustin> archivebot did a grab in november but it didn't finish completely https://archive.org/download/archiveteam_archivebot_go_004/userscripts.org-inf-20131103-142850-aborted.warc.gz
[06:46] <Spring> There have been no official news about the downtime, and I'm concerned about the site as it's the main source of userscripts online.
[07:47] <exmic> yipdw: I wonder if quora would notice an archivebot-equivalent scraper running while logged in
[07:59] <Nemo_bis> did someone archive the sugarcrm forums?
[15:08] <stefanct> hi. ive been told i could get a script to upload a bunch of files to archive org... i have a collection of flash chip datasheets obtained from various sources
[15:08] <stefanct> some might have cover pages appended or prepended
[18:58] <krisu> Userscripts.org has some problems: http://www.ghacks.net/2014/05/09/userscripts-org-good-alternatives/
[19:00] <krisu> there's alternative address with 8080 port, but original address hasn't work for 4 days.
[19:02] <krisu> And it has been down few weeks ago for few days, admins are really unactive these days.
[19:05] <balrog> ugh.......
[19:07] <krisu> ?
[19:46] <DFJustin> stefanct: https://github.com/kngenie/ias3upload
[19:46] <DFJustin> or you can roll your own with https://pypi.python.org/pypi/internetarchive
[20:08] <Stiletto> I want to know where datasheets should be stashed within the archive :)
[20:09] <Stiletto> it would also be cool if there were some pdf util script to de-spam datasheets taken from sites like datasheetarchive
[20:10] <Stiletto> which spam up the pdf metadata, insert pages spamming their site, etc :)
[20:10] <Stiletto> pdfclean? :D
[20:13] <DFJustin> https://archive.org/details/ic_datasheets or under https://archive.org/details/manuals somewhere
[20:14] <dashcloud> Stiletto: I have a bunch of datasheets from datasheetarchive, and probably the best idea is to strip all the metadata from the PDF
[20:15] <Stiletto> I have a bunch from datasheetarchive too ;)
[20:15] <Stiletto> DFJustin knows :D
[20:16] <dashcloud> it's a shame, because otherwise they are a great site to get datasheets from
[20:18] <dashcloud> Stiletto: although if you or someone else has a way to grab everything from there, metadata could always be added later
[20:18] <Stiletto> dashcloud: I know, I talk to their admin occasionally through email
[20:19] <Stiletto> dashcloud: i am working on inserting myself into their good graces...
[20:19] <Stiletto> dashcloud: ???
[20:19] <Stiletto> dashcloud: PROFIT!
[20:20] <Stiletto> :D
[20:22] <dashcloud> you're doing great work!
[20:22] <Stiletto> we'll see :)
[21:57] <Spring> Thanks so much for starting the archivebot on userscripts.org, someone found an address that worked after all :)
