09:31 🔗 SketchCow So, officially, I'm mostly scanning in the CD-ROMs from these piles and I'm just about done with a whole box's worth to be sent to Archive.
09:32 🔗 SketchCow And I've got these poor machines pushing radically to upload so many items from the stacks. Tons of software.

19:22 🔗 DFJustin dmg2iso sounds useful
19:24 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, this item is going to be quite the resource going forward.
19:24 🔗 SketchCow I'm 100% focused on just getting everything the fuck off FOS and into these places
19:24 🔗 SketchCow And then spending the weeks redoing everything so we can find stuff in the stacks
19:24 🔗 SketchCow I mean, while doing other stuff, but for NOW I'm going to stop "acquiring" new stuff
19:24 🔗 SketchCow By the way, the MSDOS stuff broke super wide today

19:40 🔗 SketchCow It comes in waves. There's a lot of people out there!
19:41 🔗 bai yeah, it's an interesting phenomenon, eternal september still going strong
19:42 🔗 bai it's easy to put something up on the internet and be like, "welp, that ran its course" only for it to be rediscovered and become wildly popular years later
19:42 🔗 bai it's all new to someone
19:44 🔗 SketchCow Archive is full of these.
19:44 🔗 SketchCow When I go back after the software, I intend to write lots of scripts for cleanups.
19:44 🔗 SketchCow As it is, I'm running between a bunch of screens, forcing FOS to upload constantly.
19:44 🔗 SketchCow I have 6tb on this drive, I think 1tb isn't stuff I can move but who knows yet.
