Time Nickname Message
00:38 πŸ”— link343 Anyone home?
00:38 πŸ”— Acceptabe Hello
00:38 πŸ”— link343 hey
00:38 πŸ”— link343 I have a weird question
00:38 πŸ”— link343 how hard would it be to backup a private forum?
00:39 πŸ”— Acceptabe I'm not the one to ask, but I would assume pretty easy.
00:39 πŸ”— link343 I'm talking about What.cd for the record
00:39 πŸ”— link343 Ton of great discussion on there
00:39 πŸ”— link343 and it would be pretty great to have that backed up
00:40 πŸ”— Acceptabe Do you have any invites left for What.CD?
00:40 πŸ”— link343 I have a few
00:40 πŸ”— link343 but I'm not really comfortable giving them out
00:41 πŸ”— link343 But the staff have mentioned how the funds to run the site are getting thinner everyday
00:41 πŸ”— Acceptabe No worries
00:41 πŸ”— link343 So it might be wise to put it on deathwatch
00:41 πŸ”— link343 Though it seems to be getting the necessary funds to keep running
00:42 πŸ”— link343 but who knows when the site will go belly up
00:42 πŸ”— link343 What is probably my favorite site on the net and I'll probably be depressed for a few days when it does die
00:42 πŸ”— Acceptabe Recently, so many sites have been taken down
00:42 πŸ”— Acceptabe I was devastated when underground gamer got taken down
00:42 πŸ”— link343 same
00:42 πŸ”— Acceptabe I was depressed
00:43 πŸ”— Acceptabe Are there an ]y
00:43 πŸ”— Acceptabe any archives of ug?
00:43 πŸ”— link343 idk
00:43 πŸ”— link343 the staff mentioned Scortching the servers
00:43 πŸ”— link343 not sure if they have personal archives
00:43 πŸ”— Acceptabe wow
00:44 πŸ”— link343 Not literally
00:44 πŸ”— Acceptabe I know
00:44 πŸ”— Acceptabe but just think about all the time and effort
00:44 πŸ”— Acceptabe and energy
00:44 πŸ”— Acceptabe lol
00:45 πŸ”— link343 yeah
00:45 πŸ”— link343 I think archiving the What.cd forums should be a big undertaking
00:45 πŸ”— link343 I'm not sure what the forums run on
00:46 πŸ”— balrog gazelle like the rest
00:46 πŸ”— link343 but the source for gazelle is out there, so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out how to back engineer it
00:47 πŸ”— jynx what.cd it's an awesome tracker indeed
00:48 πŸ”— Acceptabe how do you get invites
00:48 πŸ”— link343 either know someone who has them
00:48 πŸ”— link343 or take the interview
00:48 πŸ”— link343 I did the latter
00:48 πŸ”— Acceptabe ahh okay
00:49 πŸ”— link343 on a unrelated note
00:49 πŸ”— link343 I'm running Warrior and it keeps giving me "Tracker rate limiting is active." "errors" on the Blip project
00:49 πŸ”— Acceptabe Me too
00:53 πŸ”— andy0 Blip tracking is down (I don't why or how to fix it)
00:53 πŸ”— link343 ok
00:54 πŸ”— andy0 What.cd is gazelle, the source is neutral leach on the site
00:54 πŸ”— link343 right
00:54 πŸ”— andy0 poke around the source, if nothing else ask the DT (Development Team) for help
01:02 πŸ”— balrog source is on github
01:02 πŸ”— balrog dev team may not help because of privacy concerns
01:02 πŸ”— link343 yeah
01:02 πŸ”— balrog source: https://github.com/whatcd/gazelle
01:04 πŸ”— link343 I have no idea what I'm looking at
01:05 πŸ”— link343 I really want to help, but I have no idea what to do
01:20 πŸ”— Stormaged WHAT FORSOOTH, PRITHEE TELL ME THE SECRET WORD
01:24 πŸ”— ivan` Stormaged: "yahoosucks"
01:29 πŸ”— Stormaged Thank you ivan
01:49 πŸ”— joepie91_ ivan`, are you awake?
02:02 πŸ”— ivan` joepie91_: barely
02:03 πŸ”— joepie91_ ivan`: right.. seems like claims page is still broken due to unicode bug
02:03 πŸ”— joepie91_ so I can't clear claims
02:03 πŸ”— ivan` I don't have shell or global admin on the tracker
02:03 πŸ”— joepie91_ ah
02:03 πŸ”— joepie91_ right, then I'll ask someone else when I wake up
02:03 πŸ”— joepie91_ thanks anyway :)
02:13 πŸ”— chfoo can someone do a proper capture of https://www.facebook.com/isoHunt ?
02:13 πŸ”— chfoo iramari's WarcProxy doesn't support https
02:13 πŸ”— hiker1 wow people still use my WarcProxy?
02:15 πŸ”— chfoo heh, i've never had to use it before, but its the only thing that comes close
02:16 πŸ”— hiker1 sadly HTTPS is its one weakness
02:17 πŸ”— hiker1 chfoo: would you use it from Firefox or chrome?
02:17 πŸ”— chfoo id just manually click on show all posts
02:17 πŸ”— hiker1 in Firefox?
02:17 πŸ”— chfoo yeah
02:18 πŸ”— hiker1 you can try WarcMiddleware, or wget
02:18 πŸ”— chfoo the page is basically just javascript
02:19 πŸ”— hiker1 flashfreeze I think uses a headless js client
02:19 πŸ”— hiker1 not sure if it would work though I'm afraid
02:23 πŸ”— chfoo i do have the "save page as" version though..
02:23 πŸ”— hiker1 does the warc-proxy viewer display https properly?
02:25 πŸ”— chfoo i'm not sure.
02:25 πŸ”— JRWR I would like to thank you all for your efforts, and Im here to make a proactive offer of a archive project, I run the webservers over at PCGamingWiki.com, And I would like to see it archived before anything where to ever happen to it
02:26 πŸ”— JRWR and yes, I just spun up a Warrior on our project box
02:30 πŸ”— chfoo JRWR: wikiteam would graciously accept your offer. can you stick around until someone from wikiteam answers?
02:31 πŸ”— JRWR Yes
02:31 πŸ”— godane https://scontent-b-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/p480x480/408010_10151222815119812_736256458_n.jpg
02:32 πŸ”— chfoo JRWR: there's also the #wikiteam channel if you haven't joined it yet.
02:34 πŸ”— JRWR awesome
03:12 πŸ”— tmesis JRWR: weren't you involved with the Valve ARGs?
03:13 πŸ”— JRWR Yes I was!
03:13 πŸ”— JRWR Wow thats some old history for me
03:13 πŸ”— tmesis me too, but
03:13 πŸ”— * tmesis went by CheeseGamer then
03:13 πŸ”— JRWR I kinda remember you :)
03:13 πŸ”— JRWR I run PCGamingWiki.com now
03:14 πŸ”— BlueMax oh, that's awesome.
03:14 πŸ”— BlueMax hello.
03:14 πŸ”— tmesis nice nice, long time no see. i'm actually still opped in the #valvearg channel for some reason haha
03:14 πŸ”— JRWR lol
03:14 πŸ”— JRWR that was a long long time ago, and it was hella fun
03:14 πŸ”— JRWR I wish there where more games that did this
03:14 πŸ”— JRWR 0x10c arg was fun
03:15 πŸ”— tmesis yeah, I assume valve'll have another one for their next game
03:15 πŸ”— tmesis at least if it's a puzzle game
03:15 πŸ”— JRWR I will be right on top of that and PCGamingWiki will be happy to sponsor the wikis related to it
03:16 πŸ”— tmesis and me and my low-life +o crew can't wait to deal with the chaos that ensues after several thousand people join a channel and want to be heard
03:16 πŸ”— JRWR oh and if guys ever need help with the backend work of the Archive Team's Wiki, just let me know, I know all the tricks to have them survive under high loads
03:16 πŸ”— JRWR oh god
03:17 πŸ”— JRWR HL3 ARG will be the server crasher of EFNET
03:17 πŸ”— JRWR (FYI freenode next time)
03:17 πŸ”— tmesis yeah, we should shift to freenode
03:17 πŸ”— tmesis gamesurge flat out broke during the e3 announcement of P2
03:17 πŸ”— JRWR lol
03:18 πŸ”— JRWR freenode is able to handle the bigstuff
03:23 πŸ”— JRWR I think I shall invest some time into the AT Project, its a great little project
06:21 πŸ”— NovaKing working on IH archive?
07:52 πŸ”— Nemo_bis aww "scheduled maintenance"
08:04 πŸ”— yipdw FYI
08:04 πŸ”— yipdw other tracker admins are probably needed in #isoprey
08:04 πŸ”— yipdw that project is one of the highest loads that software has seen in a while
08:30 πŸ”— jynx yes
08:36 πŸ”— SilSte jynx: yipdw: Isoprey just shut down their fucking servers...
08:41 πŸ”— Nemo_bis https://i.imgur.com/LqxUuVg.png
08:45 πŸ”— ersi_ argh, fucktards
08:45 πŸ”— ersi Everything is worthy of archivation >:(
08:45 πŸ”— SilSte A german community called qype is also being shut down... how much work is needed to back it up?
08:46 πŸ”— ersi Seems gone already? It redirects to yelp.co.uk.
08:46 πŸ”— Nemo_bis we can always find their torrents in DMCA notices :P https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=isohunt+site%3Achillingeffects.org
08:47 πŸ”— ersi Yeah, but the point is partly to get it from the "source".
08:49 πŸ”— SilSte in germany its still alive, there is a little notice that it will close on 30.
08:53 πŸ”— SilSte ersi: did you try qype.de?
08:55 πŸ”— ersi Yes.
08:58 πŸ”— SilSte for me its up and running...
09:01 πŸ”— Cameron_D http://www.dopplr.com/
09:02 πŸ”— SilSte Cameron_D: Is there public stuff available? Remember it as a travel planning system
09:02 πŸ”— Cameron_D There seems to be a little bit of stuff, but not much
09:07 πŸ”— SilSte okay... looks like there is not dat much interest in qype ;-)
09:08 πŸ”— antomatic Is there anything left of qype to grab, SilSte? From what I can see it has already been absorbed into yelp
09:09 πŸ”— antomatic (reads back) oh, I see
09:10 πŸ”— jynx ne brr
09:10 πŸ”— brry 13Bwaah
09:10 πŸ”— jynx :3
09:10 πŸ”— brry :3
09:15 πŸ”— ersi Please stop that. Do that in #archiveteam-bs if you still want to do that
09:17 πŸ”— brry 13Bwaah
09:21 πŸ”— SilSte antomatic: I can stillf ind a lot
09:22 πŸ”— SilSte antomatic: And there is only the option to migrate data... doesn't look like all will be taken
09:22 πŸ”— SilSte antomatic: and however the comments etc. are not transfered...
09:25 πŸ”— SilSte antomatic: what do you see?
09:26 πŸ”— antomatic Ah, I was looking at qype.co.uk - now redirects to yelp.co.uk
09:27 πŸ”— SilSte fore me it looks like http://s14.directupload.net/images/131021/bentv744.png
09:27 πŸ”— SilSte it tells "Achtung Qyper! Hast du Bewertungen geschrieben oder Fotos hochgeladen? Klick hier um sicherzustellen, dass deine Inhalte in dein neues Profil bei Yelp übertragen werden"
09:27 πŸ”— jynx brr ;3
09:28 πŸ”— SilSte "Attention Qyper! Did you write reviews or upload photos? then click here to make sure that your profile is transferred to Yelp"
09:28 πŸ”— SilSte For me this sounds like a lot of stuff will be deleted
09:33 πŸ”— SilSte I'm really unfamiliar to set up a tracker / stuff like that... if someone could make a quick review if its makeable or not that would be nice ;-)
09:33 πŸ”— SilSte tanking a shower now
09:37 πŸ”— ersi brry, jynx: Stop that in here.
09:54 πŸ”— brry 13Bwaah
10:05 πŸ”— midas__ hi there, the warrior appliance isnt available for ESX is it?
10:06 πŸ”— Smiley midas__: we don't have an appliance for directly loading, however you maybe able to get it to load in ESXi.
10:06 πŸ”— midas__ Smiley: yeah figured that out, just was checking that i wasnt inventing the wheel again
10:06 πŸ”— midas__ :p
10:07 πŸ”— midas__ ill rebuild it for ESX(I) and if you want i can put a download link up
10:07 πŸ”— Smiley you can do
10:07 πŸ”— Smiley however if your running esx then you miught as well just run the scripts...
10:08 πŸ”— midas__ scripts? :p you are telling me you can install the warrior from source?
10:08 πŸ”— Smiley :)
10:09 πŸ”— Smiley http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=User:Djsmiley2k#Build_your_own_EC2_ami.2Finstance
10:09 πŸ”— midas__ and back to building it from source :-p
10:29 πŸ”— Nemo_bis what's that free (lowest tier) instance type mentioned in the page?
10:31 πŸ”— Smiley just the "free" one on EC2
10:31 πŸ”— Smiley got a star by it
10:31 πŸ”— Nemo_bis https://aws.amazon.com/free/
10:32 πŸ”— Smiley micro instances.
10:33 πŸ”— Nemo_bis 750*12 hours
10:33 πŸ”— Smiley Nemo_bis: you still pay for the data.
10:38 πŸ”— Nemo_bis Smiley: you mean beyond this? "The AWS free tier includes 5 GB of Amazon S3 standard storage, which offers the highest Amazon S3 durability." https://aws.amazon.com/free/faqs/
10:38 πŸ”— Smiley no no
10:38 πŸ”— Smiley thje data moving in/out
10:38 πŸ”— Smiley that costs you
10:40 πŸ”— Nemo_bis ah, over the "15 GB of bandwidth out aggregated across all AWS services" ?
10:50 πŸ”— bauruine hi. is it possible to run a warrior without a vm?
10:54 πŸ”— hiker2 You can probably convert the VM to a standard install
10:54 πŸ”— bauruine hiker2, preferable without needing to extract everything from the vm.
10:55 πŸ”— hiker2 How would you run the warrior then?
10:56 πŸ”— bauruine hiker2, i would like to just run the "app" on my linux servers.
10:56 πŸ”— hiker2 oh. I don't know how. I've never actually used the warrior. Perhaps someone else could answer
10:58 πŸ”— trs80 midas__: vmware convertor can import the VM into ESXi
10:59 πŸ”— trs80 midas__: that's how I did it. although you need to remove something from the config file first because it causes an error
10:59 πŸ”— midas__ trs80: oh ill check that out
11:04 πŸ”— trs80 midas: you'll also want to realign the disks if you're running on 4kb blocksize
11:15 πŸ”— NovaKing undersco2: ping mw when you are alive
11:40 πŸ”— midas__ trs80: made it myself a bit more practical
11:41 πŸ”— midas__ uploaded to san, cloned the vmdk's to the right version and added them to new vm
11:41 πŸ”— midas__ saves time and no worries about misalignment
11:42 πŸ”— bauruine i tried to convert the vmdk to qcow2 to use it with kvm / libvirt. but i get the error "qemu-img: 'image' uses a vmdk feature which is not supported by this qemu version: VMDK version 3"
11:45 πŸ”— trs80 midas: yeah, once I had one I just cloned from it
11:45 πŸ”— trs80 I think the other changes I made to the VM were more RAM and disk
11:45 πŸ”— trs80 the vm should be aligned actually, it's debian 6
11:49 πŸ”— midas__ it is a tad slow on the downloads
11:56 πŸ”— midas__ trs80: is there a way to speed it up a bit? :P have 1Gbit and need to burn off some data
11:57 πŸ”— Smiley bauruine: yes, see http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=User:Djsmiley2k#Build_your_own_EC2_ami.2Finstance
11:57 πŸ”— Smiley midas__: what project you running?
11:57 πŸ”— Smiley it depends on the site your pulling, but none will max 1Gbit
11:57 πŸ”— midas__ Smiley: blip right now
11:58 πŸ”— midas__ it's just saying tracker rate limiting is active :p
11:58 πŸ”— bauruine Smiley, thanks!
11:59 πŸ”— Smiley midas__: then wqe are at the point of breaking the site entirely.
11:59 πŸ”— midas__ got it
11:59 πŸ”— Smiley the tracker monitors the site as much as possible
11:59 πŸ”— Smiley as we've taken sites out before.
12:45 πŸ”— bauruine Smiley, is there any project that needs some resources?
12:45 πŸ”— bauruine midas__, you can always run a tor relay to burn some bandwidth :-)
12:46 πŸ”— ersi Feel free to use the #warrior channel for discussions specific to the ArchiveTeam Warrior. (Not bashing or shaming anyone. Just a friendly informatic announcement)
12:47 πŸ”— midas__ ersi: thnx :p
12:47 πŸ”— midas__ bauruine: already running ;)
13:16 πŸ”— Pichu0202 WHAT FORSOOTH, PRITHEE TELL ME THE SECRET WORD
13:17 πŸ”— Deewiant Pichu0202: "yahoosucks"
13:17 πŸ”— Pichu0202 Thanks
14:00 πŸ”— WJST :( Also got a couple of TB to spare for the upcomming months :)
14:08 πŸ”— ersi We do got a blip.tv project sort of running, it's currently on-hold/paused - but that can use some bandwidth/storage. Project channel is #blooper.tv
14:15 πŸ”— WJST aight
14:17 πŸ”— ersi Feel free to hang around though, things happen here and there at varying speed :)
14:23 πŸ”— balrog Initiating Self Destruct
14:23 πŸ”— balrog This is it. We are shutting down isoHunt services a little early. I'm told there was this Internet archival team that wants to make historical copy of our .torrent files, I'm honoured that people thinks our site is worthy of historical preservation, but the truth is about 95% of those .torrent files can be found off Google regardless and mostly have been indexed from other BitTorrent sites in the first place. So I might as
14:23 πŸ”— balrog well do a proper send-off to you dear isoHunt users, before final shutdown sequence on Tuesday. It's been an adventure in the last 10.5 years working on isoHunt, a privilege working with some of the smartest guys I've worked with, and my life won't be the same without it. For what I'm working on next, please look up my blog on Google and follow me there. Because as the Terminator would say with a German accent,
14:23 πŸ”— balrog -Gary Fung
14:23 πŸ”— balrog I'll be backkk.
14:23 πŸ”— balrog joepie91_: ^
14:23 πŸ”— ersi Yes, it's been said. Thanks for posting the whole message. :-P
14:24 πŸ”— joepie91_ balrog: yup :(
14:24 πŸ”— balrog posting the whole message means it gets logged here :P
14:50 πŸ”— Baljem any way to tell the chap that it wasn't really the .torrents we were most interested in, but the metadata around them? probably too late now...
14:53 πŸ”— antomatic TorrentFreak may come back for a second story, so there could be a chance.
18:20 πŸ”— Stary2001 M1das: :D
18:20 πŸ”— M1das how about backing up www.blackberry.com and related sites?
18:21 πŸ”— M1das as they might go bankrupt in the next months
18:21 πŸ”— Stary2001 M1das: i need to get an android phone soonish then :P
18:21 πŸ”— * M1das waves at Stary2001 :p
18:21 πŸ”— M1das most likely, yes :p
18:22 πŸ”— M1das Blackberry has one phone i really would like to own
18:22 πŸ”— Stary2001 M1das: which is? i have a Curve :/
18:22 πŸ”— M1das http://us.blackberry.com/smartphones/blackberry-p9981.html
18:23 πŸ”— M1das it is a 2000 dollar phone tho :p
18:23 πŸ”— Stary2001 hahahaha. M1das
18:57 πŸ”— phillipsj My ISP i silly and has bandwidth caps. would love to get as close to 300GB/mo as possible each month :)
19:00 πŸ”— * phillipsj does not know how much of that he is going to be using for Bitcoin related stuff yet.
19:03 πŸ”— Stary2001 hehe
19:19 πŸ”— lysobit phillipsj: be adventurous run a Tor exit node :)
19:22 πŸ”— M1das what kind of 3th world country has bw caps?
19:30 πŸ”— ersi Please take "off-topic" (ie not related to archiving) talk to #archiveteam-bs
19:30 πŸ”— ersi Just a friendly reminder.
21:00 πŸ”— hiker1 Where does the Warrior upload its results?
21:00 πŸ”— hiker1 *its results to?
21:02 πŸ”— Jacek There is a tracker server
21:03 πŸ”— Jacek e.g. http://tracker.archiveteam.org/isoprey/
21:03 πŸ”— hiker1 Is the data uploaded to the tracker server?
21:03 πŸ”— antomatic Each project usually has one or more rsync targets where finished items are uploaded to
21:03 πŸ”— antomatic The tracker informs the clients of which one, or ones, to use for each item
21:04 πŸ”— hiker1 Who hosts the rsync targets?
21:04 πŸ”— antomatic the target servers crunch and collate the uploads, then upload in beefy chunks to archive.org, etc.
21:04 πŸ”— antomatic hiker1: anyone and everyone, although there are usually some used more than others
21:05 πŸ”— antomatic in isohunt's case I think joe used his own servers for speed
21:07 πŸ”— antomatic FOS is a common rsync target, maintained by the mighty Jason 'textfiles.com' Scott.
21:07 πŸ”— hiker1 okay, so everyone uploads their results to joe's server using rsync, then his server merges data, chunks it, then uploads to archive.org?
21:07 πŸ”— antomatic depends on the individual project
21:07 πŸ”— antomatic I think that's the plan, hiker1.
21:07 πŸ”— hiker1 Using rsync, are the files uploaded in the warc.gz format? Or some other format?
21:08 πŸ”— antomatic .warc.gz is popular, especially for big web scrapes. In other cases (e.g. blip.tv) sometimes just the raw files are uploaded as-is. (e.g. mp4, mov, ogg, etc)
21:09 πŸ”— hiker1 How does the rsync target merge and chunk the warc.gz files?
21:10 πŸ”— antomatic That part is outside my knowledge - but in general they get collated into 'megawarcs' of about 50gb in size
21:10 πŸ”— Smiley think "cat"
21:11 πŸ”— antomatic Look at this for example: http://archive.org/details/archiveteam_posterous
21:11 πŸ”— antomatic plenty of 50gb .tar files to download there. :)
21:11 πŸ”— * antomatic thinks of cats.
21:11 πŸ”— hiker1 Smiley: Can warc.gz be merged with cat?
21:11 πŸ”— Stary2001 hiker1: no
21:11 πŸ”— Stary2001 .gz
21:12 πŸ”— hiker1 Can .warc be merged with cat?
21:14 πŸ”— DFJustin hiker1: we have scripts for all this on the archiveteam github
21:14 πŸ”— DFJustin https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/megawarc
21:15 πŸ”— DFJustin https://github.com/chfoo/warcat
21:15 πŸ”— DFJustin http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=The_WARC_Ecosystem
21:18 πŸ”— hiker1 DFJustin: thanks
21:18 πŸ”— DFJustin .warc can be merged with cat I believe but if you naively gzip the result you lose the special effort .warc.gz files have to match the gzip chunk boundaries with the warc data inside to make it nice and easy to index
21:19 πŸ”— DFJustin the wayback machine serves content straight out of .warc.gz files in the archive.org storage system
21:19 πŸ”— hiker1 how quickly do uploaded .warc.gz files make it into the wayback machine?
21:20 πŸ”— DFJustin I don't know the exact schedule but it seems to be within a few weeks
21:20 πŸ”— zifnab question: does archiveteam have anything to do with archive.org?
21:20 πŸ”— DFJustin archive.org generously gives us hosting and our mascot jason scott is an archive.org employee but otherwise we do whatever we want
21:21 πŸ”— zifnab ah
21:21 πŸ”— zifnab figured i'd lurk here for a while, maybe help if something comes up
21:21 πŸ”— DFJustin they generously give everyone hosting though
21:21 πŸ”— zifnab got my box set up for isohunt last night
21:22 πŸ”— balrog zifnab: too late now
21:22 πŸ”— antomatic appreciated, zifnab. hopefully there'll be another project along shortly. :)
21:22 πŸ”— hiker1 why is it too late now?
21:22 πŸ”— zifnab oh i know :)
21:22 πŸ”— zifnab hiker1: site went down
21:22 πŸ”— hiker1 :O
21:23 πŸ”— DFJustin he's dead jim
21:23 πŸ”— antomatic [We really should try to ALWAYS have at least one project running at any given time, IMHO]
21:23 πŸ”— zifnab i got a whole 136 items in last night :(
21:24 πŸ”— hiker1 I said before, but Warhammer Online is shutting down. It might be worth grabbing a copy of the website + gigantic forum, and maybe even a patched copy of the client
21:24 πŸ”— hiker1 my guess is they'll gut the forum when it goes
21:24 πŸ”— DFJustin we did the city of heroes forums before so it's up our alley
21:25 πŸ”— DFJustin if you have the client you can throw it into an archive.org item yourself
21:25 πŸ”— Smiley lol we've done all of gamespy and ign.
21:25 πŸ”— hiker1 600,000+ posts on the WAR forum
21:25 πŸ”— Smiley However we need someone to take lead and figure it out
21:26 πŸ”— Smiley hiker1: not an issue
21:26 πŸ”— hiker1 Smiley: Is it the kind of project that would be done distributed, or just by one person?
21:26 πŸ”— antomatic Warharmmer closes on December 18th apparently
21:26 πŸ”— antomatic shit, missed a month already
21:26 πŸ”— hiker1 antomatic: yeah, it was previously announced
21:26 πŸ”— Smiley hiker1: distrobuted
21:27 πŸ”— DFJustin here have a forum https://archive.org/details/archiveteam-city-of-heroes-main
21:27 πŸ”— Smiley someone needs to take the warrior code, and figure out how to split up the jobs
21:27 πŸ”— Smiley then load them itno a tracker, and blam.
21:27 πŸ”— hiker1 Smiley: using a warrior, or just a "you do these I'll do those" approach?
21:27 πŸ”— Smiley hiker1: it's an ideal warrior grab for the forums.
21:27 πŸ”— hiker1 I think a patched up to date copy of the client would also be useful for future private server development. I'd back it up myself, but I have very limited bandwidth
21:28 πŸ”— Smiley For the main site, one person can prob easily do it.
21:28 πŸ”— * Smiley points at github
21:28 πŸ”— antomatic one for archivebot, maybe?
21:28 πŸ”— hiker1 What about github?
21:28 πŸ”— Smiley hiker1: all our stuff should be there.
21:28 πŸ”— hiker1 ah, right
21:28 πŸ”— Smiley antomatic: need to be able to tell it to ignore the forums, kind of difficult.
21:28 πŸ”— antomatic aah.
21:29 πŸ”— hiker1 Smiley: forums are on a different domain, so shouldn't be difficult I think
21:30 πŸ”— Smiley #warslammered then
21:30 πŸ”— Smiley SketchCow: investigation into warhammer online shutdown started - #warslammered
21:31 πŸ”— Smiley Anyone interested, come to channel. Keep this for general ontopic discussion, and off topic to #archiveteam-bs
21:34 πŸ”— chfoo ooh, can you create funny channel names for bebo and wretch as well
21:36 πŸ”— zifnab #beboob
21:36 πŸ”— zifnab #wretchwench
21:37 πŸ”— Smiley lol
21:37 πŸ”— Smiley yeah they'll do
21:37 πŸ”— Smiley xD
21:40 πŸ”— chfoo there's also #yahooblah for yahoo blogs
21:41 πŸ”— SketchCow I see we made Torrentfreak
21:42 πŸ”— Smiley Hi,
21:42 πŸ”— * Smiley needs some more coders. Anyone awake please visit by #warslammered
21:43 πŸ”— Smiley Not sure how to index huge chunks of forums
21:44 πŸ”— DFJustin what forum software is it
21:44 πŸ”— Smiley ea... :/
21:45 πŸ”— Smiley nothing on their legal page, so I presume in house.
21:46 πŸ”— Nemo_bis Hi SketchCow, could you create torrents also for these items? https://archive.org/metamgr.php?&w_identifier=Wikimediacommons*&mode=more (notice uppercase W; you "only" made lowercase, these 3 are a mistake I made)
21:59 πŸ”— Smiley SketchCow: once your done, make sure to catch up with joepie91_; he's done some awesome work; unsure if you've seen ( I'm reading stuff now https://github.com/joepie91/isohunt-grab )
22:01 πŸ”— Nemo_bis ok, now trying lrztar -lD -w 10
22:11 πŸ”— Smiley Nemo_bis: #warslammered
22:11 πŸ”— Smiley go make beautiful
22:11 πŸ”— * Smiley goes to bed
22:37 πŸ”— wp494 ars technica wrote an article about isohunt's preemptive shutdown due to us:
22:37 πŸ”— wp494 http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/10/isohunt-shuts-down-a-day-early-to-avoid-becoming-part-of-online-archive/
22:42 πŸ”— balrog has anyone archived the shutdown message?
22:49 πŸ”— TSwift hahaha
22:56 πŸ”— bsmith093 http://archive.org/details/TheAdventuresOfSupermanTv1
22:56 πŸ”— bsmith093 i keep getting emailed by IA saying it been reviewed and i would like to read it, but its not there on the page
22:58 πŸ”— DFJustin probably spam that gets deleted before you get there
22:59 πŸ”— DFJustin oh I see there are reviews but the derive process is hung and that needs to finish before they can go live https://catalogd.archive.org/history/TheAdventuresOfSupermanTv1
