01:11

01:16
π

SketchCow |
Thanks. |
01:17
π
|
SketchCow |
OK, so. |
01:17
π
|
SketchCow |
We have this big pile of crap happening. |
01:17
π
|
SketchCow |
We probably need to update the wiki to handle all of them. |

Not sure who-all has access to edit the front page of the wiki. The "Ended Projects" section can be updated though. See |

looks like trailers on g4tv.com was start to move to hd in summer of 2008 |
08:08
π
|
Steve32 |
Any plans on salvaging GameSpy? |
08:12
π
|
omf_ |
As SketchCow has pointed out this month suddenly became real fucking busy |
08:13
π
|
omf_ |
I think there are 4-5 sites we are trying to save right nwo |
08:20
π
|
Steve32 |
heh that's pretty gnarly |
08:21
π
|
Steve32 |
I wonder if IGN will somehow import GameSpy's content into its own site |
08:30
π
|
omf_ |
who knows |
08:34
π
|
godane |
i'm also the one trying to save g4 |
08:34
π
|
omf_ |
I personally am working on the g4 reviews |
08:35
π
|
omf_ |
speaking of that godane the first test worked |
08:35
π
|
omf_ |
It looks like I can pull all the reviews down with warc data no problem |
08:35
π
|
godane |
anyways i found the first HD video |
08:35
π
|
godane |
can you give your scripts? |
08:35
π
|
omf_ |
was it when you expected |
08:40
π
|
Steve32 |
Been clicking around on GameSpy, getting occasional "Error rendering template: gamespy_review_grid.jsp = com.ign.di.dao.DynamicIndexDAOException:" |
08:40
π
|
Steve32 |
Would be annoying if that happens when downloading the site |
08:41
π
|
Steve32 |
a refresh of the page solved it, perhaps it's getting hammered by more leechers |
08:43
π
|
omf_ |
The is the one variable that is impossible to control. How many other people are trying to download it while you download it |
08:44
π
|
godane |
omf_: can you find the trick to get this file: vids.g4tv.com/videoDB/008/125/video8125/vc14627_ss040114glf_165_0.flv |
08:45
π
|
godane |
there are other videos like this that maybe lost |
08:46
π
|
godane |
also know that video ids are the same based on what waybackmachine has |
08:48
π
|
omf_ |
you using this list: http://wreb.archive.org/stream/g4tv.com-video-url-list-1/video-file-urls.txt |
08:50

chronomex, any luck on that url list for the project repos? I have to build up that list as a skip list to double check that I downloaded the whole site correctly |
12:42
π
|
chronomex |
not yet, thanks for reminding me, stay tuned |
12:46
π
|
omf_ |
Could someone create an src.opensolaris page on the wiki? |
12:46
π
|
omf_ |
I got some data to put up and finishing this site might not be so bad |

|
hiker1 |
Is there a project to archive 1UP, UGO, and Gamespy? |
18:06
π
|
hiker1 |
They are all closing: http://www.joystiq.com/2013/02/21/ign-layoffs/ |
18:14
π
|
omf_ |
We know they are going |
18:14
π
|
omf_ |
hiker1, seriously there are like 9 major site closings right fucking now. It is a mess |
18:15
π
|
hiker1 |
What other sites? |
18:15
π
|
omf_ |
1up, UGO, Gamespy, g4, posterous, opensolaris, memolane, |
18:15
π
|
omf_ |
and a few others |
18:15
π
|
omf_ |
that I cannot remember off the top of my head |
18:16
π
|
hiker1 |
posterous is shutting down? wow |
18:16
π
|
omf_ |
yeah that was the first one we attacked |
18:16
π
|
omf_ |
mapped out 9+ million accounts |
18:17
π
|
omf_ |
opensolaris appears to be pretty small, just needs a little special work |
18:24
π
|
omf_ |
We have a deathwatch and projects page. Why not have a Active Projects page instead of just the blurb on the front page? Not everyone has front page edit access and frankly shit is starting to pop off this month |
18:25
π
|
omf_ |
Can normal users even create new pages themselves? |
18:25
π
|
hiker1 |
We could have an active projects page, and then the main page could embed it |
18:26
π
|
omf_ |
sounds good. You got access to make that happen? |
18:42
π
|
hiker1 |
Nope. |
19:23
π
|
omf_ |
The Deathwatch has been updated. |
19:34
π
|
omf_ |
I started working over gamespy to see what we are going to need to do |
19:38
π
|
omf_ |
has anyone mirrored the forums.g4tv.com shit? Says it is closing on March 18th |
19:38
π
|
omf_ |
which is a bit ahead of the esquire launch |
19:40
π
|
godane |
i'm mirroring it |
19:40
π
|
godane |
i have also mirrored thefeed articles and images |
19:40
π
|
godane |
but will have to update that |
19:41
π
|
godane |
it was around new years eve when i did that |
19:41
π
|
omf_ |
godane, so you got the forums and the videos |
19:41
π
|
godane |
i don't have all videos yet |
19:41
π
|
godane |
but very close |
19:41
π
|
omf_ |
I know, you are working through them |
19:41
π
|
godane |
hd video is what i will never get all of |
19:42
π
|
omf_ |
I am worried most about gamespy |
19:42
π
|
omf_ |
17 year of gaming history is on there. I am already spidering to build the url list |
19:44
π
|
godane |
its 14 years in the good bye post |
19:44
π
|
omf_ |
they should check the copyright statement |
19:44
π
|
omf_ |
gamespy has been bought and sold so many times the owners probably do not even know what they own |
19:45
π
|
omf_ |
plus the dozens of subdomains |
19:46
π
|
godane |
better spider: http://www.gamespy.com/index/news.html?constraint.month.article.initial_publish_time=12&constraint.year.article.initial_publish_time=2003&constraint.return_all=is_true |
19:46
π
|
godane |
change the month and year |
19:48
π
|
omf_ |
I got 19,000 links so far |
19:49
π
|
omf_ |
this is going to take hours of work to mirror |
19:49
π
|
omf_ |
and I don't me set it and forget it |
19:52
π
|
omf_ |
gamespy has some files hosted locally and others on mediafire. Talk about dropping a toolbox of problems on my head |
19:53
π
|
godane |
mediafile |
19:53
π
|
godane |
*fire |
19:53
π
|
godane |
what the hell? |
19:54
π
|
omf_ |
yeah this is going to be one of the hard sites I have done |
19:54
π
|
omf_ |
shit is everywhere |
19:54
π
|
omf_ |
and we do not know when it is going down |
19:55
π
|
godane |

19:55
π
|
godane |

19:57

19:58
π
|
godane |
we got luckly with dl.tv |
19:59
π
|
godane |

19:59
π
|

19:59
π
|
godane |

19:59
π
|
godane |
but i think thats all i have lost |
19:59
π
|
omf_ |
sounds like a pretty complete collection to me |
20:00
π
|
godane |
the first 7 episodes of dl.tv are not on meovid |
20:01
π
|
godane |
Its mevio.com |

Lord_Nigh |
omf_: what's happening with src.opensolaris.org btw? you said the source code can be accessed in a better non-web-interfacey way? |
20:15
π
|
omf_ |
yep chronomex is already working it out |
20:15
π
|
omf_ |
basically we just pull the repos down with hg |
20:15
π
|
chronomex |
^ |
20:16
π
|
omf_ |
then compare against the mirror I already made to make sure everything got backed up |
20:16
π
|
omf_ |
the site is small |
20:16
π
|
chronomex |
few hundred repos only |
20:17
π
|
omf_ |
yeah I did berlios in 2 days and that was thousands of repos |
20:17
π
|
omf_ |
So if any wiki admins see this ping me, we need to get some new project pages created |
20:19

I found 43 subdomains that work for gamespy so far |
20:44
π
|
omf_ |
I expect more than that for ign |
20:55
π

omf_ |
Right now I think we are seeing the biggest purge of video game history online ever |
20:56

21:02
π

omf_ |
no worries |
21:02
π

omf_ |
okay so my estimate was right, litterally hundreds of fucking domains |
21:02
π
|
Smiley |
i can use *some* bandwidth from work, upto about.... 40Mbit currently |
21:03

and I have quite a bit of storage, if someone can give me.... *someting* to grab? |
21:04
π

omf_ |
I can do that once I figure out the map of this |
21:04

working on ign now |
21:08
π

S[h]O[r]T |
its *.gamespy.com and *.ign.com if theres some other main domain you wantme to pull let me know. will do posterous after |
21:09
π
|
omf_ |
can you do a * in the main domain name |
21:09
π
|
omf_ |
like planet*.com |
21:09
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
ign has a lot of cname records compare to A |
21:11
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
no, but all the planets are in there afaik. there isnt a lot. i can lookup all records by their /20 though too |
21:11
π
|
omf_ |
well what I found is there are planet sites that redirect to gamespy or ign subdomains |
21:12
π
|
omf_ |
and then some that do not |
21:12
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
right but are there any missing planet* in my list? |

S[h]O[r]T: Can you do that dns trick for any site you want? |
21:16
π
|
omf_ |
S[h]O[r]T, I almost forgot could you do 1up.com before posterous. It is one of the 3 gaming sites going down |
21:17
π
|
closure |
posterous uses wildcard dns. You cannot enumerate their domains |
21:18
π
|
closure |
thispoweroussitedoesnotexist.posterous.com has address 184.106.20.99 |
21:19
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
yes soultcer |
21:19
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
closure passive dns goes off of what people have done dns lookups for |
21:20
π
|
Smiley |
so as long as someone visited a site .... faily recently... |
21:21
π
|
closure |
oic |
21:21

Sweet, this will make archiving much easier. By passice dns, you mean that ISC db that logs DNS queries? |
21:22
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
yes |
21:22
π
|
Smiley |
andi f we all use S[h]O[r]T's DNS ;) |
21:22
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
there are some free passive dns sites out there http://www.bfk.de/bfk_dnslogger.html is a decent one |

isn't there a firefox plug-in now? |
21:31
π

omf_ |
okay Posterous goes down April 30th that means I have to set aside the screenshot bot because these gaming sites could be gone tomorrow |
21:31
π
|
omf_ |
never enough time |
21:32
π
|
Smiley |
screenshot bot? |
21:32
π
|
omf_ |
SketchCow, wants a screenshot of each posterous domain |
21:32
π
|
omf_ |
So I have some code that runs a threaded headless browser to screenshot pages |
21:33
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
is your code done? |
21:33
π
|
omf_ |
once you have the domain list it is pretty straight forward |
21:33
π
|
Smiley |
.... |
21:33
π
|
Smiley |
i think i'm still banned from posterous |
21:33

Smiley checks |
21:33

|
omf_ |
I already did one test run and the output looks good |
21:33
π
|
Smiley |
:< |
21:33

|

still banned. |
21:34
π
|
omf_ |
yeah I got unbanned |
21:34
π
|
S[h]O[r]T |
could jsut screenshot off of what we grab in warcs..but ok :p |
21:34
π
|
omf_ |
no rhyme or reason to it |
21:34
π
|
Smiley |
warc-proxy+screenshot bot? |
21:34
π
|
Smiley |
btw why do we want screenshots? |
21:34
π
|
omf_ |
wget does not guarentee it fetches all js and css |
21:34
π
|
Smiley |
omf_: I could screenshot all of ign? :D |
21:34
π
|
omf_ |
it does not get web fonts either |
21:35
π
|
omf_ |
Smiley, not until we at least have a mirror |
21:35
π
|
Smiley |
ahhh ok |
21:35
π
|
omf_ |
also conditional IE shit is ignored too |
21:35
π
|
omf_ |
grabbing a *full* website is not as straight forward as it was 10 years ago |
21:35
π
|
omf_ |
plus wget cannot process js |
21:36
π
|
Smiley |
yah, hense me asking someone to spell out a command for me :/ |
21:36
π
|
Smiley |
it's about how far my skills stretch |
21:37
π
|
omf_ |
Many of us are working towards a more prepackaged mirroring solution |
21:37
π
|
Smiley |
nod. |
21:37
π
|
omf_ |
So more people can get stuff and need less technical skill to do it |
21:38
π
|
Smiley |
i guess i'm crying because I feel kind of useless and no matter how much i try, I don't seem to be able to get some things right :D |
21:38
π
|
omf_ |
wait a sec Smiley |
21:38
π
|
Smiley |
I'm good with hardware, but thats no use here :D |
21:38
π
|
omf_ |
godane do you have a list of all the HD urls not done yet? |
21:38
π
|
Smiley |
OOOO yeah I can do that :) |
21:38
π
|
Smiley |
especially if we limit wget a bit. |
21:39
π
|
turnkit |
yeah, please "dumb down the tools" for people who want to help but can't be bothered to learn to be Unix admins / learn all CLI and scripting etc. |
21:39
π
|
turnkit |
thanks |
21:39
π
|
Smiley |
turnkit: hehe i *am* a unix admin :/ |
21:39
π
|
turnkit |
lol |
21:39
π
|
Smiley |
however I'm not a coder, and... while I can wget and do stuff, I hate repeating what someone else has already done faster and better. |
21:40
π
|
Smiley |
I'll screw it up 3 or 4 times before getting it right, and in the case of posterous that means getting banned, possibly perm. |
21:40
π
|
turnkit |
I can type 'make' but prefer a Windows GUI. #abomination for sure. But yes, please work on tools for simple archiving helpers. |
21:40
π
|
omf_ |
The heart of it is the logic of the scraper |
21:40
π
|
Smiley |
if someone says to me "Smiley, run : for x in blah do wget blahblah with options xxxxx" then I will happily :) |
21:41
π
|
omf_ |
it needs to be able to make decisions about how to proceed without human feedback |
21:41
π
|
Smiley |
maybe one day I'll understand crazy things like lua, but I'm doubtful :) |
21:41
π
|
omf_ |
like rotating ips, user agents, time outs, caching, file fetching |
21:41
π
|
omf_ |
Testing it takes 10-20x more literal time than writing the software |
21:41
π
|
omf_ |
and this will probably only run in the warrior |
21:41
π
|
Smiley |
nod |
21:42
π
|
Smiley |
hmmm, I have a warrior instance here, but my net here is kind of limited |
21:42
π
|
omf_ |
unless you are comfortable with the Linux of MacOS X command lines |
21:42
π
|
Smiley |
I run gentoo ;D |
21:42

21:47

omf_ |

21:49

21:49
π
|
omf_ |

21:49
π
|
omf_ |

21:49
π
|
Smiley |
that's not rate limit, but it'll do :P |
21:49
π
|
Smiley |
if its all gonna go at 11kb/s then its not a problem :P |
21:50
π
|
Smiley |
how big might this get? |
21:50
π
|
omf_ |
No idea |
21:50
π
|
Smiley |

21:50

21:50
π
|
Smiley |
it'll crash if it runs out of space tho :? |
21:50
π
|
omf_ |
but that shit is everywhere |
21:50
π
|
omf_ |
it just stops |
21:50
π
|
Smiley |
If I randomly stop it at some point? |
21:50
π
|
omf_ |
everything up to that point should be good |
21:51
π
|
Smiley |
ok cool, thats fine then ;D |
21:51
π
|
Smiley |
my desktop shoudln't crash from running outta space |

sadly I removed the 1Tb drives from my external connector due to cleaning up :( |
21:52

I doubt the site is that big but I have no way of knowing |
21:52

I am still mapping the whole thing out |

As long as companies still have the same employees, restructuring isn't always a bad thing. It might mean we just go to IGN to get all the content, and it might even mean they have more staff to handle even more topics. But I think in this case they layed off staff and it is a bad thing. |
22:43
π
|
hiker1 |
but then they never leave up archives of the old... |
22:47
π
|
omf_ |
zdiff davis has done this to litterally hundreds of sites they own |
22:47
π
|
omf_ |
IGN was corrupt as fuck before they got bought out the first time |
22:47
π
|
omf_ |
It has been a hot mess since |
22:47
π
|
hiker1 |
omf_: does ziffdavis usually delete the old site content? |
22:47
π
|
omf_ |
always |
22:47
π
|
omf_ |
they never keep anything |
22:54
