[00:21] Alard's been pumping stuff over. [00:21] By "normal" you mean FOS [00:21] yeah [00:21] FOS is available to alard [00:21] ok [00:22] |That works then I think ;D [00:22] Is it stable? [00:22] It is stable. [00:22] One drive is empty, working on the other. [00:23] cool [00:52] TEXTFILES DUMP PROGRESS: 71%, or approximately 8.4gb/11.7gb [00:53] and since this is on a spare drive i don't mind having 20gb of plaintext and compressed plaintext clogging up, i can keep both the archives and the output folder! [00:54] Has anyone started pulling down dead/dying mailing lists? [00:57] shaqfu, I did all the opensolaris ones. No one has mentioned any others that need it [00:57] omf_: Dunno of many/any in dire need, but I've poked around a bit and found a few moribund [00:57] Problem is that it's a huge pain to get them :( [03:15] Rrgh - so much for that. Mailman lists don't seem to be comprehensive of what they have [12:45] ign confirmed that fileplanet is closing [12:45] http://www.gamefront.com/breaking-ign-to-close-fileplanet/ [12:45] "If/when we remove all site content completely, we’ll be sure to communicate that to users before it happens." [12:45] yeah, I don't think so [12:50] they will - "We're excited to say that fileplanet will be closing in 24 hours, thanks for being with us all these years!" [12:54] 24 hours? I see you're one of life's optimists! [12:56] I almost said 48 [16:30] wow, fileplanet has tons of stuff iirc [16:31] i remember waiting in queues to download stuff on my modem :) [16:45] We did a grab, but we could always do a little more poke and prod to see if we can find anything else [16:45] http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Fileplanet [17:55] oh, that's great [17:56] https://archive.org/details/archiveteam-fileplanet [18:23] I see new fileplanet entries popping up. Was this stuff on FOS? [18:49] Any reason the web Warrior interface would stop clearing old (confirmed) entries? [19:16] Software preservation meeting agenda sent to me [19:16] Going to be fun [19:19] Preserve all the things! [19:31] hm interesting [19:31] when is this? [19:40] https://docs.google.com/file/d/1ApZWm4-6tXr2vOxGNWoGElnURlkPzBurLYFgyBW8HkikWWM1ifYR-G92Ej9P/edit?usp=sharing [19:42] al kossow o/ [19:44] and I quote "I DID IT THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES AGO", golden [19:44] I feel kind of bad for the smithsonian guy who has to follow that [19:44] solid fucking platinum [19:45] I do too. [19:45] I feel bad for anyone who follows me [19:45] Most of these people are *talking* about it and who is actually doing it... internet assholes [19:46] Can the public attend this meeting? [19:47] I would drive out to DC to attend [19:49] No, I don't think so. [19:51] At least they are listening to non-academics about this. [20:04] * Smiley looks in [22:30] is comics alliance going to be taken down? Does Archive Team archive blogs? http://www.theverge.com/2013/4/29/4283086/comicsalliance-blog-the-latest-aol-property-to-be-shut-down [22:30] I get the sense that AT's more about user generated content [22:31] Archive ALL THE THINGS [22:32] hehe [22:32] Well, blogs and individual smaller sites.. aren't really needed to be parallelized like enourmous gigantic user-created-content-eating-portals - so there's less fuzz about them [22:33] but there's plenty of wget -m --warc-file=$site $site to go around [22:44] I think somebody mentioned working on a grab of comicsalliance the other day... let's see how far back my logs go [22:45] ah yes: <@omf_> done http://archive.org/details/www.comicsalliance.com
