05:01 πŸ”— dxrt haha
05:02 πŸ”— JesseW ah, in a technical sense -- good. I was worried it was in a organization/social sense.
05:02 πŸ”— Frogging yeah
05:02 πŸ”— Frogging though I am a bit concerned about the latter, generally
05:03 πŸ”— Frogging they've had an internal schism of sorts over the past year

10:32 πŸ”— luckcolor https://github.com/ssimpo/google-groups
10:32 πŸ”— luckcolor https://github.com/bojieli/GoogleGroup-Archiver
10:33 πŸ”— whydomain Hi, Does anyone have any experience with EasyCap USB video capture cards for archiving VHS tapes?
10:33 πŸ”— whydomain I know they're cheap and are low quality, but VHS is also low quality so will it archive VHS in the highest quality that VHS can output?
10:33 πŸ”— whydomain (i.e: is there any advantage to using a more expensive HD capture card to capture non-HD VHS?)
10:33 πŸ”— luckcolor https://github.com/himukr/google-grp-scraper

10:48 πŸ”— luckcolor That's ll i can find of interest on github
10:50 πŸ”— luckcolor 70 pages of results :P
10:51 πŸ”— Sum the web UI for Google Groups certainly isn't pleasant
10:52 πŸ”— luckcolor yeah
10:53 πŸ”— PurpleSym None of these is going to work for us, luckcolor. They all use either the RSS feeds (which are limited to 50? entries), a headless browser or parse the HTML.
10:53 πŸ”— luckcolor sigh
10:53 πŸ”— PurpleSym There was a gist of a python script using GWT.
10:53 πŸ”— luckcolor mmh
10:53 πŸ”— luckcolor also is there a irc channel for the project?
10:54 πŸ”— PurpleSym I don’t think there’s a project yet.
10:54 πŸ”— luckcolor ok
11:01 πŸ”— PurpleSym Yeah, looks like it is screen scraping /forum/message/raw
11:02 πŸ”— luckcolor i'll re-investigate the results
11:11 πŸ”— luckcolor https://github.com/henryk/gggd https://github.com/jrholliday/gg-scrape https://github.com/clehner/ggscrape are looking promising
11:11 πŸ”— luckcolor also it seems that most people when making those scripts like MBOX format
11:11 πŸ”— * luckcolor googles MBOX

19:29 πŸ”— joepie91 with some bizarre confirmation dialog / redirect hack

23:36 πŸ”— divingk has joined #archiveteam-bs
23:37 πŸ”— JesseW I hadn't heard about source code accidentally left in games before -- but I don't focus much in that area.
23:37 πŸ”— divingk I don't think many people here have,
23:37 πŸ”— divingk since video games are not something normally mined through
23:38 πŸ”— JesseW I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people more focused on old games have.
23:38 πŸ”— RichardG has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
23:38 πŸ”— divingk and it's quite tough to find these normally without having a giant ROM archive or two laying around.
23:38 πŸ”— JesseW Well, we have that. :-)
23:38 πŸ”— RichardG has joined #archiveteam-bs
23:38 πŸ”— JesseW (previous conversation: http://archive.fart.website/bin/irclogger_log/archiveteam?date=2016-07-10,Sun&sel=180#l176
23:39 πŸ”— divingk Since many of these either have missing or lost source code,
23:39 πŸ”— divingk and seeing that loads of games are missing on TCRF,
23:40 πŸ”— divingk that also factored into me digging through these games.
23:40 πŸ”— divingk I've even found a couple of tech documents in the process.
23:40 πŸ”— divingk I know Machine Lighting for the ZX Spectrum has a bunch of macro definitions,
23:41 πŸ”— divingk plus another game has part of a manual for some debugging thing.
23:42 πŸ”— divingk I'd also like to ask how many other people have done this,
23:43 πŸ”— divingk since I know that there are many more games that could be added.
23:43 πŸ”— JesseW Well, if anyone has, they'll likely speak up eventually. You can check the logs tomorrow and see.
23:45 πŸ”— divingk I'll probably check in during the weekends.
23:47 πŸ”— BlueMaxim has joined #archiveteam-bs
23:47 πŸ”— godane so i have uploaded over 43k nasa docs
23:48 πŸ”— divingk Oh, yes, before I forget...
23:49 πŸ”— divingk Zeppelin Games.
23:49 πŸ”— divingk There are several master disks of their games,
23:49 πŸ”— divingk two of which have a lot of code.
23:49 πŸ”— divingk Kick Box Vigilante for the ZX Spectrum
23:49 πŸ”— divingk and Mazie for the Amstrad CPC.
23:52 πŸ”— divingk You will need a hex editor to see these.
