[00:19] i got +2.5gb of groklaw [00:43] so here is ces 2011 from labrats.tv: http://archive.org/details/labrats-256 [02:16] anyone have an AIM account still? aolforever apparently went down on the 27th of July, and took a bunch of AOL files, historical items, and other related items from the online service with it. The site admin's name should be "paste" if I'm reading the page right. http://web.archive.org/web/20130523004148/http://aolforever.com/ [02:35] i have aim [02:41] I have no idea if it's even a good idea, but the admin of that site did have a nice collection of AOL items/programs/screenshots/etc, and it would be nice if IA could get a copy if the aolforever.com site won't be returning [02:42] the only contact info I see is an AIM name [02:55] which is? [02:55] is it just 'paste'? [02:55] he was with hostgator maybe he is just moving [02:58] or is it the Obs Cryptic? [02:58] there is some ICQ also [02:58] no one signed in on Obs Cryptic [02:59] icq 76409772 maybe [03:00] here [03:00] http://justinide.net/about-us/ [03:00] he is alive on facebook, twitter is dead tho [03:02] im emailing him [03:08] thanks! [04:51] Is someone archiving Groklaw? http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/08/groklaw-shuts-down-rather-than-risk-feds-snooping-through-e-mail/ [04:53] Because I don´t think it will be up much longer [05:02] Muad-Dib_: a couple people have been at it since this morning I think [05:48] Muad-Dib_: I've been talking with PJ [05:48] Muad-Dib_: she has told me (1) that Groklaw has no plans to shut down and (2) the LoC has been archiving their articles (but not comments) [05:49] that said, we're still welcome to do a backup [05:49] re: the comment block -- that's the wish of the Groklaw community, i.e. that their comments not be archived [05:49] of course I can't stop anyone from archiving them but I think you should be aware of it [05:50] the /pdf* directories are also robot-blocked and I've asked her about that as well [05:50] currently awaiting a response [14:02] Hi everyone, sorry to bother you. Perhaps I have misunderstood something, but I thought geocities shut down. Yet google search for site:http://www.geocities.com/ shows thousands of links that all seem to work. Has yahoo revived it? [14:08] guest307: I think most of them are 'paid users'. They're still online [14:10] Ah okay, that makes sense. For a second I had hope that it had come back. Thanks for your help [15:02] godane, balrog, omf_: PJ has said that PDFs are okay to archive [15:02] BUT [15:02] she requests that we hold off a few months so she can fix embarrassing typos in the early articles [15:16] also, I've invited her to join this channel if she feels comfortable doing so, because me acting as intermediary seems unnecessary [15:18] well I am not getting the pdfs now because those are easy to get [15:19] sure [15:19] I'm just passing along messages [15:41] yipdw: nice work, man [15:41] just talking :P [15:50] if she feels email is insecure I dunno what she thinks about IRC [15:50] IRC is insecure by design [15:50] heh [15:54] balrog: sure, but might as well just offer it [15:54] yeah [15:54] balrog: also we're not discussing whistleblower-level details here [15:54] that's true [21:26] i'm backing up theguardian.com master index [21:27] and from there i can do year like dumps of it [23:01] 6.2gb of groklaw articles and comments and counting
