11:58 πŸ”— Shakespea has joined #archiveteam-bs
11:58 πŸ”— Shakespea Hi
11:59 πŸ”— Shakespea I was wondering if I could ask about why I am currently unable to acces #archiveteam
12:00 πŸ”— Shakespea No objections, but it seems that a ban was placed back in 2014 over some misunderstandings
12:01 πŸ”— Shakespea I was wanting to talk with archivers because I was wanting to determine if someone had kept an archive of now dead web-site that is missing from archive.org due to robots.txt
12:02 πŸ”— Shakespea I will also note that my former login at the wiki (Sfan00_IMG) is also apparently blocked, which means I am not currently able to contribute or open a disscusion there
12:04 πŸ”— Shakespea (My understanding was the the blocks/bans existed due to some misunderstandings back in 2014, when I was attempting to get potentially get some donations of archive sites
12:07 πŸ”— Shakespea For some reason in an outgoing e-mail, I mannged to make a really bad slip when typing and manged to substitute a word with a completly different one from the one I actually intended.
12:07 πŸ”— Shakespea Despite sending an apology to all parties in good faith, it seems that this precipitated the current situation
12:08 πŸ”— Shakespea Having had at least 2 years to reconsider, I'd like to participate in discussion on archival efforts.
12:09 πŸ”— Shakespea ( As I'm not seeing any responses, I am assuming that I am quieted here.)
12:32 πŸ”— Shakespea has quit IRC (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.92 [Firefox 49.0.1/20160922113459])

14:20 πŸ”— Start has quit IRC (Quit: Disconnected.)
14:24 πŸ”— Shakespea Hi
14:24 πŸ”— Shakespea I was in earlier , but my connection dropped out
14:24 πŸ”— Shakespea Can you hear me ok?
14:36 πŸ”— atrocity yeah, but you must sing a sonnet
14:36 πŸ”— Shakespea Which one do you want?
14:36 πŸ”— Shakespea ;)
14:36 πŸ”— Shakespea Wikisource has a few
14:36 πŸ”— Shakespea as does PG
14:37 πŸ”— Shakespea I was in here earlier to try and figure out why a former account got blocked
14:38 πŸ”— Shakespea Currently Sfan00_IMG (my old account) can't contribute ont the Archie Teamm wiki because it's blocked
14:38 πŸ”— Shakespea The reasons for that block have never been explained
14:39 πŸ”— Shakespea And given that it's been 2 years, I'm still slightly puzzled
14:39 πŸ”— Shakespea The only contribution was to start a page for USENET archiving
14:41 πŸ”— Shakespea I suspect though the the block was a reaction to some misunderstandings (my end) and a miskey of the worst kind in an e-mail that I apologised for at the time :)
14:42 πŸ”— RichardG has joined #archiveteam-bs
14:42 πŸ”— Shakespea However, 2 years is a long time
14:42 πŸ”— Shakespea and a fuller explanation would perhaps clear up the misunderstandings?
14:43 πŸ”— RichardG_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 250 seconds)
14:46 πŸ”— Shakespea On something else entirly, it's a shame the NSA can't share it's archive of sites XD
14:46 πŸ”— Shakespea (Some of which have some intresting thoughts on cryptography)
14:48 πŸ”— Shakespea I won't name the admin that imposed the wiki block here, but they know who they are, and I would encourage them to get in touch with me
14:50 πŸ”— Shakespea In any event - I was wanting to suggest someone put this file up on archive.org at some point - http://8bs.whelks.com/pool/8bs-pd-pool.zip
14:50 πŸ”— sep332 has joined #archiveteam-bs
14:50 πŸ”— Stiletto has joined #archiveteam-bs
14:50 πŸ”— Shakespea The standard Wayback machine doesn't as far as I know capture zip files that aren;t otherwise page linked.
14:51 πŸ”— PurpleSym SketchCow is the admin in question, but he won’t like your long monologue ;)
14:51 πŸ”— arkiver be short and clear
14:51 πŸ”— Shakespea PurpleSym: Well I am not querying thier decision, just trying to figure out why.
14:51 πŸ”— Stilett0 has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 370 seconds)
14:52 πŸ”— BartoCH has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
14:52 πŸ”— Shakespea As I said, at the time there may have been some serious misunderstandings
14:52 πŸ”— arkiver wait for SketchCow
14:52 πŸ”— Frogging yep
14:53 πŸ”— Shakespea Okay..
14:53 πŸ”— Shakespea Nobody minds if I talk about other things in the meantime?
14:53 πŸ”— Frogging depends if they're relevant :p
14:54 πŸ”— Shakespea Would a large archive of 8 Bit computing magazines be? - Some of which aren't in the Archive.org collection
14:55 πŸ”— Frogging Sure
14:55 πŸ”— Shakespea Let me find the e-mail
14:55 πŸ”— BartoCH has joined #archiveteam-bs
14:56 πŸ”— Shakespea Frogging - http://8bs.whelks.com/beebug.shtml for example has links to an almost complete run
14:56 πŸ”— Shakespea of Beebug which was for it's 12 or so years a very influential magazine with respect to computing in the UK
14:57 πŸ”— Frogging Cool, thanks. arkiver put it in ArchiveBot
14:58 πŸ”— Shakespea The site itself (with covers) should be on wayback already , because I delibrately asked the site operator for the link (which they set up specfically for mirroring purposes)
14:58 πŸ”— Shakespea The link I gave earlier was the software pool the site maintained for BBC Micro and related systems (including buried within it certain support discs which are otherwise hard to find)
14:58 πŸ”— Stilett0 has joined #archiveteam-bs
14:59 πŸ”— Shakespea The software pool is not on Wayback because as I explained it wasn't linked from any of the web pages the site operator had placed for mirroing purposes whenn I saved them.
15:00 πŸ”— Shakespea The original site is still maintained and ocassionaly gets updates
15:00 πŸ”— Shakespea Frogging : Let me check something...
15:01 πŸ”— Shakespea Frogging : http://8bs.whelks.com/othrdnld.shtml seems to be a master download of everything on the site circa 2013
15:01 πŸ”— Stiletto has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
15:01 πŸ”— Shakespea The original site is 8bs.com , but for bandwidth reasons, it's not mirrored directly...
15:01 πŸ”— Shakespea The main front page being here - http://www.8bs.com/
15:02 πŸ”— Shakespea Frogging: Another site in computing history terms is http://mdfs.net/
15:02 πŸ”— Shakespea which also has some hard to find support files :)
15:02 πŸ”— Shakespea (Sorry to go on)
15:03 πŸ”— Shakespea And finally - https://bb4w.wikispaces.com/
15:03 πŸ”— JesseW has joined #archiveteam-bs
15:03 πŸ”— arkiver thanks for the links
15:04 πŸ”— Shakespea (This is a site that could dissaper, because the maintainer themselves has raised concerns about hosting charges.)
15:04 πŸ”— Shakespea arkiver: You wouldn't happen to have archived a site called patternschool.com?
15:05 πŸ”— arkiver see top of http://dashboard.at.ninjawedding.org/
15:05 πŸ”— arkiver no
15:05 πŸ”— Shakespea arkiver: Thanks... You might need to do a couple of passes :)
15:06 πŸ”— arkiver what passes
15:06 πŸ”— arkiver not sure what you mean
15:06 πŸ”— Shakespea Sometimes the mirror server cuts out , meaning you need to download a file twisce
15:06 πŸ”— Shakespea to be sure of getting all of it
15:06 πŸ”— arkiver right
15:07 πŸ”— Shakespea Another site - https://www.gov.uk/guidance/traffic-sign-images Massive database of offical UK Traffic Signs
15:07 πŸ”— Shakespea (I hop you don;t mind me posting these)
15:08 πŸ”— Shakespea https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/traffic-signs-working-drawings-tsrgd-2002 - Previous UK traffic signs - This should be on wayback as I saved
15:08 πŸ”— Shakespea https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/traffic-signs-signals-and-road-markings
15:10 πŸ”— Shakespea arkkiver : This major site may also be of interest - http://parlvid.mysociety.org/os/ but I'm not sure how it's set up
15:10 πŸ”— Shakespea It's a mirror of most of the 'freely' licensed OS map data
15:10 πŸ”— Shakespea You won't get better 'free' maps of the UK , unless you run OpenStreetMap...
15:10 πŸ”— Shakespea Speaking of which...
15:11 πŸ”— Shakespea http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/misc/openstreetmap/planet.openstreetmap.org/ is mirror of OpenStreetmap planet.osm dumps which gets update regularly...
15:11 πŸ”— Shakespea (Not sure if your bot can be told to grab new files at a regular interval.)
15:12 πŸ”— Shakespea Okay I think I've overloaded you enough for now
15:15 πŸ”— Frogging heh
15:16 πŸ”— Shakespea Okay 4 final entries - http://www.paula8364.com/
15:16 πŸ”— Shakespea http://www.6581-8580.com
15:16 πŸ”— Shakespea www.hvsc.c64.org/ (but it seems to be offline right now)
15:17 πŸ”— Shakespea http://remix.kwed.org/
15:17 πŸ”— Shakespea And I am done :)
15:19 πŸ”— Shakespea I have 4 more sites to suggest, but those can wait :)

15:25 πŸ”— Shakespea Frogging: It's a shame there isn't a wayback machine equivalent for capturing USENET posts
15:25 πŸ”— Shakespea Only Google Groups does it wholescale and it's UI make me puke :(
15:30 πŸ”— Shakespea Presuambly a script to capture the whole of USENET every 24 hours isn't beyond the realms of possibility?
15:30 πŸ”— Shakespea Given it's what most NNTP servers do
15:33 πŸ”— yipdw there's http://www.theusenetarchive.com/
15:36 πŸ”— Shakespea Hmm
15:36 πŸ”— Shakespea Thanks
15:37 πŸ”— Shakespea Paid for site :(
15:38 πŸ”— Shakespea I.e the charge for access
15:38 πŸ”— Shakespea Understandable, but USENET should be free
15:38 πŸ”— Shakespea :(
15:40 πŸ”— yipdw I suppose once storage grows on trees and maintenance costs nothing that will be a possibility
15:40 πŸ”— yipdw if you live in a place where at least the former is true, please do consider setting up an export business
15:40 πŸ”— xmc sounds good
15:41 πŸ”— Shakespea I'm suprised archive.org ( which Archiveteam is not affiliated) with wasn't running it's own USENET capture scripts
15:41 πŸ”— yipdw in the meantime, there are bits and pieces of newsgroups on IA
15:41 πŸ”— Shakespea They may of course now be running capture scripts, but I hadn't heard anything
15:42 πŸ”— Shakespea Naturally there's a complete archive somewhere in a blanked out office building in Fort Merrick :(
15:42 πŸ”— Shakespea (Which of course isn't public)
15:43 πŸ”— xmc Shakespea: i'm mentioning this before it becomes an issue. you are talking a lot more than anyone else in here.
15:43 πŸ”— Shakespea xmc: You want me to shut up?
15:43 πŸ”— arkiver ^
15:43 πŸ”— xmc i didn't say that
15:43 πŸ”— yipdw IA has pretty good archives up to around 2014, and there's other bits and pieces
15:43 πŸ”— xmc but you may wish to consider putting the brakes on
15:43 πŸ”— yipdw https://archive.org/search.php?query=usenet&sort=-date
15:44 πŸ”— yipdw https://archive.org/search.php?query=usenet&sort=-publicdate
15:44 πŸ”— yipdw er https://archive.org/search.php?query=usenet
15:44 πŸ”— Shakespea xmc: noted...
15:45 πŸ”— yipdw as for why they're not doing their own incremental archiving effort I don't know, but I can guess it has something to do with the rest of https://archive.org/projects/

17:39 πŸ”— FAMAS however, in the event that the conversational mode of a user becomes a bigger issue than the offers of assistance, it is a different matter entirely, user schbirid
17:40 πŸ”— arkiver sets mode: +b FAMAS!~kvirc@103.60.175.36
17:40 πŸ”— Smiley a user who wastes more time 'conversing' than saving is not worth conversing with.
