02:25 ^🔗	SketchCow	Greetings from plane
02:31 ^🔗	dashcloud	hello
02:32 ^🔗	*	BlueMax gets the RPG
04:51 ^🔗	tuankiet	No Github task?
04:54 ^🔗	hiker1	Hi. http://japan.gamespot.com/ says that after dec 17th you will no longer be able to browse any of their articles.
05:04 ^🔗	balrog_	That's ... 3 days
05:04 ^🔗	balrog_	D:
05:04 ^🔗	balrog_	:(
05:05 ^🔗	hiker1	Yeah. They seem to have thousands of articles though. Not sure if it's worth saving any.
05:07 ^🔗	hiker1	GameSpot is a fairly popular gaming website
05:08 ^🔗	hiker1	A lot of people in the gaming community know of them
05:08 ^🔗	DFJustin	you don't have to sell us on it we're packrats :P
05:08 ^🔗	SketchCow	Someone get on it stat
05:09 ^🔗	hiker1	heh
05:09 ^🔗	SketchCow	One person WGETting and ignoring robots.txt should be able to do it within a couple hours.
05:09 ^🔗	SketchCow	It's a very limited site
05:09 ^🔗	Sue	i can help if everyone is busy
05:10 ^🔗	SketchCow	Just told lead archive.org guy it's closing (lead for crawling)
05:10 ^🔗	hiker1	It's kinda sad they are removing the old content too. They could at least leave it up for a few months. I'm sure they have the server space.
05:10 ^🔗	SketchCow	He's japanese, I'm willing to bet he gets on it quick
05:10 ^🔗	SketchCow	Hiker1 really wants us to buy in
05:11 ^🔗	hiker1	Well it seems useful!
05:11 ^🔗	SketchCow	It's just funny
05:12 ^🔗	SketchCow	You're walking into the ACLU going "you should check this case out! It really infringes free speech. Free speech is important! Expression is one of our funamental rights!"
05:12 ^🔗	SketchCow	And the ACLU goes "on it"
05:12 ^🔗	SketchCow	And you go "Because we really use expression a lot! It should be free!"
05:13 ^🔗	SketchCow	We're on it, we'll snag a copy. Sorry to hear the $12 they pay that poor guy to translate was too much for CNET
05:13 ^🔗	hiker1	Thank you.
05:26 ^🔗	tuankiet	The tracker always down :((
06:45 ^🔗	underscor	alard: Bugs on #gothub
08:52 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	godane: http://www.pdfmagazines.org/
08:52 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	all actually stored on http://novafile.com/ it seems...
09:42 ^🔗	underscor	(*) chronomex / alard: looks like the trackers fell over, mind kicking them? http://tracker.archiveteam.org/dailybooth
09:46 ^🔗	underscor	Looks healthy now
09:46 ^🔗	underscor	(for the record, everything was 502'd)
10:06 ^🔗	GLaDOS	Still 502ing for me.
10:27 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/348558045 22 GiB of PDFs complete collection, someone willing to put it on IA?
10:29 ^🔗	GLaDOS	Time to be useful, I guess.
10:46 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	GLaDOS: so you take it? :)
10:46 ^🔗	GLaDOS	I'll try!
10:46 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	What's Avengers 1-503? http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/366230989
10:46 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	good, it's great fun with iasuploader and metadat.csv :D
10:47 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	*metadata.csv
10:58 ^🔗	Deewiant	Nemo_bis: Issues 1â503 (volumes 1â3) of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avengers_%28comics%29 presumably
11:02 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	Deewiant: yep, I guess so, no idea if worth putting on archive.org
11:14 ^🔗	godane	looks like ftp archive.org speeds are very slow
11:18 ^🔗	godane	i'm doing it with my custom script to s3 now
11:25 ^🔗	godane	i think its moving faster with s3 but not sure
11:38 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	godane: do NOT use FTP O_o
11:40 ^🔗	godane	i use ftp cause i can resume
11:40 ^🔗	godane	my internet sucks sometimes
11:41 ^🔗	godane	i don't want to get 90% of 8gb iso file just for my internet to crap out
11:46 ^🔗	godane	looks like i have to fix this one: http://archive.org/details/G4.E3.10.Live.Day.2.DSR.XviD-SYS
11:46 ^🔗	X-Scale	godane: you could use a download manager (if the webserver you're dealing with supports resume)
11:50 ^🔗	godane	i do use download managers
11:50 ^🔗	godane	what i need is a upload manager to archive.org
11:51 ^🔗	X-Scale	ah
11:52 ^🔗	X-Scale	good point
11:53 ^🔗	godane	i will have to fix that item above later
11:58 ^🔗	godane	also thanks to SketchCow we have this: http://archive.org/details/g4video
12:00 ^🔗	hiker3	Is there a program to download an entire show from IA TV News?
12:02 ^🔗	godane	ok its official
12:02 ^🔗	godane	my internet sucks
12:03 ^🔗	godane	i may not be of much use to the archiveteam if archive.org uploading is under 200kbytes
12:04 ^🔗	godane	i think i'm at maybe 50kbytes
12:06 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	it's not your fault
12:06 ^🔗	godane	i know
12:07 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	GLaDOS: add the second part :) http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/416770457
12:07 ^🔗	GLaDOS	That's a lot of PDF
12:07 ^🔗	godane	but this episode of x-play should have been done by now
12:12 ^🔗	GLaDOS	Damnit, connection's crapping out.
12:12 ^🔗	GLaDOS	Nemo_bis: might be better for someone else to do it.
12:17 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	GLaDOS: we're not in a hurry
12:18 ^🔗	GLaDOS	But.. but.. Australian internet..
12:18 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	you're closer to IA than me :p
12:23 ^🔗	godane	Nemo_bis: The only reason i'm pissed with my upload is this has been far below my upload speed for like 10+ hours
12:23 ^🔗	godane	i was trying to get x-play 2011.10 episodes uploaded
12:31 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	it's always like this, you have to live with it
12:31 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	or buy a virtual server in a place where IA connection is fast
12:39 ^🔗	godane	of course i'm the crazy guy that wants to archvie the data for my self
12:43 ^🔗	godane	whats even crazyer is that i made 15 collections just in computer videos alone
12:43 ^🔗	godane	:-D
14:39 ^🔗	godane	my internet upload is moving faster now
15:24 ^🔗	alard	Hello, hello. (Haven't read anything yet.)
15:47 ^🔗	godane	i'm reuploading my G4.E3.Live.Day.2.DSR.XviD-SYS item
15:47 ^🔗	godane	the video turned out to be under 1mb when it should have been 1.4gb
17:28 ^🔗	balrog_	you know what would be worth archiving? legacy.com obituary guestbooks
17:29 ^🔗	balrog_	they take them down after a year unless you pay, and to put one back up demand $3 for 24 hours or $30 for a year
17:30 ^🔗	chazchaz	I don't think it relly makes sense to.
17:30 ^🔗	chazchaz	They probably dont want it to be
17:31 ^🔗	chazchaz	so I think that basically precludes trying it, seeing as it's apparently their business model.
18:21 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	Wikia moved their dumps http://dumps.wikia.net/
21:55 ^🔗	SketchCow	I've had 33 issues of Creative Computing go up
22:01 ^🔗	Coderjoe	chazchaz: it may be their business model, but that doesn't mean that the information should just disappear into the memory hole, either.
22:02 ^🔗	balrog_	that's just a pet peeve of mine
22:03 ^🔗	balrog_	that the comments all go "dark" and you have to pay to get them back
22:03 ^🔗	Coderjoe	I can go to the library and pull up my grandfather's obit from the newspaper archives on microfilm. why shouldn't people be able to do that with online obit guestbook pages?
22:04 ^🔗	Coderjoe	I think you can pay to get a printed copy
22:04 ^🔗	Coderjoe	but what happens for someone that has nobody willing to pay for the data to stay around?
22:05 ^🔗	balrog_	it gets "archived"
22:05 ^🔗	balrog_	then someone who wants to view it has to pay $3 to see it for 24 hours
22:05 ^🔗	balrog_	or $30 for a year
22:06 ^🔗	balrog_	or $80 for permanent
22:06 ^🔗	Coderjoe	and what about when the company changes focus or closes down?
22:06 ^🔗	balrog_	then you're screwed.
22:06 ^🔗	Coderjoe	into the memory hole
22:06 ^🔗	balrog_	yeah :[
22:11 ^🔗	Nemo_bis	nationalize the service? ^^'
