01:12 🔗 Coderjoe more meant for when a single archive file is uploaded to a bbs, though
01:12 🔗 DFJustin someone needs to add text/plain as a type for .DIZ too
01:13 🔗 Coderjoe I don't recall ever looking at a cd intended for a sysop to use in a bbs file base
01:14 🔗 CowerAway sigh.. i did that all the time back in the old days :)
01:14 🔗 DFJustin http://archive.org/download/cdrom-exdos1/exdos1.iso/A002%2FFILES.BBS

01:17 🔗 CowerAway hacked miniterm to handle 32 ports to handle 32 inbound modems.. thank god for open source
01:17 🔗 CowerAway of course the client probably resold it 10 times to make even more money (sigh)
01:18 🔗 CowerAway old USR v.everything modems bought on sysop deal used to come with about 8 starter CDs.. those i should have somewhere
01:20 🔗 CowerAway lol.. even rememeber PKPAK before PKZIP came out

15:51 🔗 mistym shaqfu: re: NADP/LAC cuts?
15:51 🔗 shaqfu Yeah
15:52 🔗 mistym My organization didn't get cut, thankfully. We're not a part of LAC and were too big to have ever been on NADP's radar. Feeling pretty depressed at the news though - it's going to affect a lot of people.
15:52 🔗 shaqfu No kidding :( Glad to hear your org's alright - wasn't sure if it was funded via NADP/LAC or not
15:57 🔗 shaqfu Just what the world needs, I suppose - more out-of-work archivists

18:55 🔗 ersi just getting people interested and helping out building the group around it is something
18:55 🔗 SmileyG yey i feel helpful :D
19:04 🔗 shaqfu yipdw: Won't help when the market's flooded with former NADP archivists
19:04 🔗 shaqfu It's going to be a gloomy ACA...
19:05 🔗 shaqfu SmileyG: Any at-risk ones right now?
19:21 🔗 SmileyG not that im aware of
19:21 🔗 SmileyG Is it worth trying to contact the closed ones to see if theres anything we could host?
19:22 🔗 shaqfu Can't hurt
19:26 🔗 shaqfu If you're aware of any that are dying/decaying, speak up
19:30 🔗 mistym shaqfu: No kidding... this is going to colour the dialogue at this year's ACA.
19:31 🔗 mistym (Like it wasn't already hard enough for young archivists to find work, too.)
19:34 🔗 shaqfu There's a great discussion on the new archivists listserv about how NARA is in a hiring freeze, and that you really shouldn't bother applying for fed jobs right now

20:30 🔗 ivan` I have all of paste.pocoo.org from 2011-12
20:30 🔗 ivan` I feel bad for not a running continuous backup, fuck
20:32 🔗 ivan` maybe armin has a DB dump
20:33 🔗 SketchCow CHUMBY HAS SHUT DOWN
20:33 🔗 SketchCow Someone please grab chumby.com and the forums.
20:33 🔗 SketchCow LordNlptp: I don't.
20:42 🔗 Zebranky SketchCow: How much did the GET LAMP coins cost? Shooting the shit elsewhere about minting some.
20:43 🔗 ivan` re: paste.pocoo.org, mitsuhiko says he will render out static HTML pages, but not this week
20:44 🔗 SketchCow They run into $4 apiece, now $4.25
20:44 🔗 ivan` I've backed up (almost all) of gist.github
20:44 🔗 SketchCow That said, they are 2-tone, unique number, two sided, etc.
20:44 🔗 SketchCow There's a lot of features on them.
20:44 🔗 ivan` I don't grab new commits on pastes I've already cloned
20:44 🔗 ivan` but that's not at risk since github has barriers to submitting
20:45 🔗 * ivan` resumes paste.lisp.org and hpaste
20:46 🔗 ivan` http://hastebin.com/ is the new kid on the block with unguessable URLs afaik
20:56 🔗 SketchCow RIPPING AND TRIPPING
21:06 🔗 SketchCow I've now done, I think, every Linux Magazine DVD-ROM that this person sent me.
21:11 🔗 goekesmi FWIW, I'm crawling www.chumby.com and forum.chumby.com right now.
21:13 🔗 SketchCow Thank you.
21:13 🔗 SketchCow WARC, right?
21:14 🔗 goekesmi I suck. Wget. Point me at the right tool and I'll swing a different hammer.
21:14 🔗 SketchCow Get WGET-WARC variation.
21:15 🔗 goekesmi Understood. Will do.
21:17 🔗 goekesmi I'm assuming these instructions are accurate: http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Wget_with_WARC_output
21:17 🔗 SketchCow https://twitter.com/#!/textfiles/status/197434407387283456/photo/1
21:17 🔗 SketchCow Yes, they are.
21:19 🔗 Zebranky SketchCow: Righto, cool, thanks!
22:11 🔗 dan not to intentionally inject politics, has anyone heard about Ron Paul's 2008 Youtube video channel with thousands of videos being deleted? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Kyap3a2P6g
22:13 🔗 SketchCow It's not intentionally.
22:13 🔗 SketchCow No, haven't heard it.
22:13 🔗 SketchCow Hey, down to the last 250gb of Friendster!!
22:14 🔗 SketchCow Well, unless there's a few lurking out there, or on these drives.
22:14 🔗 SketchCow Which I'll be looking for.
22:14 🔗 dan they wiped everything for copyright infringement claims.
22:14 🔗 balrog_ph Whattt!?
22:14 🔗 dan yeah, exactly.
22:15 🔗 SketchCow Well, bear in mind, they're not wiped.
22:15 🔗 SketchCow they're out of access.
22:15 🔗 yipdw obviously Ron Paul is a dirty commie traitor
22:16 🔗 yipdw because faulty algorithms determine my perception of the law
22:16 🔗 yipdw seriously, though, that's pretty fucked up
22:16 🔗 dan correct. still, its a ludicrous claim whoever's legal team decided to file claims
22:16 🔗 dan naturally, reddit is pissed.
22:18 🔗 yipdw I wonder if CNN or Fox or MSNBC filed the claim
22:18 🔗 yipdw or, rather
22:18 🔗 yipdw a program running at CNN or Fox or MSNBC
22:18 🔗 dan according to this thread, it was CNBC. http://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/t1hq7/youtube_deletes_the_entire_ronpaul2008_channel/
22:19 🔗 yipdw I'm kind of happy this happened, though, because it demonstrates to non-geeks how terrible it is when programmers implement law in software
22:19 🔗 yipdw one small audience at a time
22:19 🔗 yipdw I am assuming that people will get the message, which on second thought is probably an invalid assumption
22:20 🔗 SketchCow So.
22:20 🔗 SketchCow Not of relevance to us.
22:20 🔗 SketchCow I mean, burn quietly, not an archiveteam issue.
22:20 🔗 Ymgve yipdw: which non-geeks would even notice this?
22:20 🔗 dan well, my question with relevancy here is did anybody archive this stuff? :)
22:20 🔗 SketchCow No.
22:20 🔗 SketchCow Assume no.
22:20 🔗 yipdw Ymgve: I'm hoping some Ron Paul supporters that otherwise do not care
22:21 🔗 Ymgve yipdw: like 99% of the ron paul supporters are geeks
22:21 🔗 yipdw I don't know
22:21 🔗 yipdw I'm just happy in a sick way when this sort of shit happens
22:22 🔗 dan god please anonymous don't be stupid and try to seek revenge.
22:22 🔗 Ymgve anon isn't that big on paul i think
22:22 🔗 dan have you ever been to /b/? lol
22:22 🔗 Ymgve anon are more "fuck I'm not voting"
22:23 🔗 Ymgve paul is more reddit
22:23 🔗 goekesmi Dumb question. Is there a 'right way' to archive wikis? for example wiki.chumby.com. I'm not finding the obvious tool by searching archiveteam.org
22:24 🔗 SketchCow Hop on #wikiteam
22:24 🔗 Ymgve goekesmi: isn't the chumby Bunnie's project? maybe ask him for a direct sql backup?
22:24 🔗 SketchCow We have code
22:26 🔗 balrog_ph There are wiki backup tools, yes
22:31 🔗 SketchCow shhh, balrog_ph
22:31 🔗 SketchCow goekesmi: Get on #wikiteam
22:31 🔗 SketchCow Ask questions there.
22:31 🔗 SketchCow We're well ahead there
22:32 🔗 SketchCow http://code.google.com/p/wikiteam/
22:36 🔗 goekesmi SketchCow: That was what I needed. Thanks.
22:51 🔗 ivan` there's also a http://chumby.wordpress.com/ and a http://files.chumby.com/source/
22:52 🔗 ivan` and http://wiki.chumby.com/
22:59 🔗 SketchCow Nemo_bis: I've begun integrating your DVDs.
23:11 🔗 ivan` http://ludios.org/tmp/paste.pocoo.org-1-to-512635.7z 400MB
23:19 🔗 dashcloud so what kind of DVDs are you ripping now?
23:20 🔗 Jaybird11 So I just archived some stuff and got warc files. How would one go about extracting the actual files, with filename, last mod date, etc. from a warc file?
23:20 🔗 Jaybird11 I don't really have any need to do this, I'd just like to know how.
