[04:51] god *damn* do they ever care! [04:53] i think it would have to be people from fanfiction.net make a request for it to go dark [04:54] godane help me out here https://discord.gg/JQacT [04:54] why are you engaging with them [04:54] don't do that [04:55] i'm busy trying to save NPR [04:55] on a discord channel of all places, no accountability at all [04:56] tell me about it, messages are retroactively editable!

In my opinion, archiving fics is OK, and that's as someone who'se written one or two [08:41] this site (https://fanlore.org/wiki/Sharing_Deleted_Fanworks#Fannish_Approaches_To_Sharing_Deleted_Fanworks) has a summary of various beliefs. [08:43] General consensus is that sharing of deleted fics is opt-out, unless you want to ignore courtesy. Unless the specific author publically asks for the fic not be shared, it's considered to be okay to share it. [08:45] ... And I just realised that bsmith093, who sees to be at the centre of this whole thing, has quit. Hope he looks at the IRC archives. [08:49] I do hate it when I go back to look at something and it's vanished. That's actually why I archive [08:51] because things on the internet disappear. DMCAs and bad upkeep are responsible for a lot of it [08:52] same here [08:52] Me too. I literally download or send to archive.org (or archive.is in cases of robots.txt) everything that I see that seems interesting to me [08:53] i have like 9 hard drives in shelf [08:54] every fic I think is/could be half-way decent, I download. Every image or news article, I send to one of the archive sites. [08:54] and 9 external hard drives out near my computer [08:54] 4 of them are plugged in most of the time [08:56] i may have ~23.5tb in total [08:58] a part of me wants to get some more 4tb hard drives [09:01] looks like i'm at 1035k items now [09:06] I'm expanding my storage bit by bit [09:07] I'm sort of a data hoarder, but I'm selective. I don't indiscriminately download huge archives of shit I don't know or care about [09:07] which I think is something that "data hoarders" tend to get a bad rap for :p [09:09] well, except for IA.bak, but in that case I outsource the selectiveness to the shardmasters, heh [09:12] I trust they won't be filling my disk with 2TB of poorly encoded movies :p [09:28] *** matt_lock has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) [09:41] *** GE has joined #archiveteam-bs [09:42] *** dashcloud has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [09:43] *** dashcloud has joined #archiveteam-bs [09:51] *** Honno has joined #archiveteam-bs [09:53] *** Honno__ has joined #archiveteam-bs [09:59] *** Honno_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 506 seconds) [09:59] *** Honno has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 370 seconds) [10:52] *** zyphlar has quit IRC (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity) [10:55] *** zyphlar has joined #archiveteam-bs [11:31] *** GE has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [11:50] *** BlueMaxim has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) [12:07] *** Infreq has quit IRC (Quit: Page closed) [13:06] *** GE has joined #archiveteam-bs [13:22] *** zyphlar has quit IRC (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity) [13:33] *** Honno_ has joined #archiveteam-bs [13:36] *** Honno has joined #archiveteam-bs [13:38] *** Honno__ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 370 seconds) [13:41] *** Honno_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 370 seconds) [14:32] *** VADemon has joined #archiveteam-bs [15:03] https://twitter.com/laura_june/status/822504510845231106 [15:03] don't know which "Matter Studios" is meant [15:04] probably this Medium spinoff, https://medium.com/matter/meet-matter-studios-db1e7653a73e#.aw13eomhe [15:04] which means it's probably already included in the main medium efforts?
