00:12 πŸ”— Nemo_bis https://github.com/chao-mu/Exhumer/blob/master/modules/search/google.rb
00:13 πŸ”— SketchCow 39G 2013.ftp.bpmmicro.com.zip
00:13 πŸ”— SketchCow 55G ftp.bpmmicro.com
00:13 πŸ”— SketchCow ah, the power of zip
00:57 πŸ”— joepie91 Nemo_bis: that'll get you banned really quick
01:08 πŸ”— SketchCow I gotta say - I'm really happy I'm going through this collection I got of 300 Commodore and general 8-bit books, and I'm finding maybe one out of 10 or 15 isn't one I already have up on archive.org.
01:10 πŸ”— joepie91 :)
01:29 πŸ”— dashcloud wow- that's impresssive
01:31 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh SketchCow: do we have the "basic computer games" and "more basic computer games" books by ahl digitized and up?
01:31 πŸ”— SketchCow Well, I've REALLY been on this for a year plus now.
01:31 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh iirc theres an even older sold-by-dec version which predates the other published ones
01:32 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh I own a copy of "more basic computer games"
01:32 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh but not the first oen
01:32 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh sells for a bit on ebay last i checked
01:32 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/Basic_Computer_Games_1978_David_Ahl
01:32 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/bitsavers_decBooks10Mar75_26006648
01:32 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/Basic_Computer_Games_Volume_II_1980_David_Ahl
01:32 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh I CANNOT scan it right now due to idiot painters painting the window in front of the scanner and not cleaning it up properly so the scannr is moved away for a while
01:32 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/More_BASIC_Computer_Games_1979_David_Ahl
01:33 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/More_BASIC_Computer_Games_1979_David_Ahl
01:33 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/More_BASIC_Computer_Games_1980_Creative_Computing
01:33 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/Basic_Computer_Games_Microcomputer_Edition_1978_Creative_Computing
01:33 πŸ”— SketchCow you think this is some motherfucking GAME
01:35 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh https://archive.org/details/More_BASIC_Computer_Games_1980_Creative_Computing <- that one should have "trs-80 edition" in its title
01:35 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh the 1979 one is the one i have
01:36 πŸ”— dashcloud did you accidentally paste the 1979 link twice, or is there a difference between the two?
01:36 πŸ”— SketchCow Accidentally.
01:36 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh and i already see some issues with the 1979 scan; the scan looks like it was auto-cropped to min size per page (which is kinda ugly); the cover is overly jpeg-compressed, and the very first page is completely missing
01:37 πŸ”— SketchCow Huh, it's almost like someone did it for free
01:37 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh yeah. hmm
01:37 πŸ”— kyan I'm trying to write a distributed web crawlerҀ¦ right now I'm using the S3-like API for Internet Archive uploads, but that has the unfortunate result of creating a lot of noise under my account. Is there a better way to go about this?
01:37 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh i'll scan the copy i have here at 800dpi when i get a chance
01:37 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh only the front, back and spine need to be in color, the rest is fine at 1-bit line art
01:38 πŸ”— joepie91 kyan: you could always register a different account specifically for your S3 uploads
01:40 πŸ”— kyan joepie91, Suppose soҀ¦ things will still be getting tossed indiscriminately into the "texts" category though, oh well :(
01:40 πŸ”— kyan thanks :)
01:40 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/ftp.bpmmicro.com.2013.11
01:42 πŸ”— SketchCow I should make clear that as I'm stepping through these books, if I find that there is a radical difference in size between the two same-titled books, second title goes up anyway
01:43 πŸ”— SketchCow If one if 605334 and the other is 605328 I don't.
01:43 πŸ”— SketchCow But 605334 and 28993444, then I do
01:46 πŸ”— dashcloud when did ISBN codes start showing up on the back cover of books?
01:46 πŸ”— joepie91 kyan: if you tag them, SketchCow could probably toss them into the right collection afterwards
01:46 πŸ”— joepie91 perhaps you could request a collection if you expect to be adding lots of data
01:47 πŸ”— joepie91 :p
01:47 πŸ”— joepie91 dashcloud: they've been on back covers of books (and first pages) in NL forever
01:47 πŸ”— joepie91 often just above or below the barcode
01:47 πŸ”— kyan joepie91, Right. I'll stick with tagging them for now (at least until I've actually gotten the code off the ground). :)
01:48 πŸ”— DFJustin I have both the ahl books
01:48 πŸ”— joepie91 alright :P
01:49 πŸ”— DFJustin I scanned a little bit but stopped when I found it on another website
01:49 πŸ”— DFJustin http://www.atariarchives.org/basicgames/ http://www.atariarchives.org/morebasicgames/
01:51 πŸ”— SketchCow I can slam through someone's stuff and shove the name around
01:52 πŸ”— DFJustin kyan: if you're doing s3 uploads you should be able to set at least the mediatype
01:54 πŸ”— kyan DFJustin, Oh! Thanks! I didn't realize there was a web mediatype, just looked at the list :) Thanks.
01:55 πŸ”— DFJustin it'll still need to be put into an appropriate collection but then at least you get download links on the details page
01:56 πŸ”— DFJustin "opensource_media" seems to be an open-access grab-bag collection
02:08 πŸ”— SketchCow So, my plan for 2014 is intense fixing up of the collections.
02:11 πŸ”— SketchCow Including making better tools for adding metadata and sorting things along with volunteers being able to assist more fervently.
02:11 πŸ”— SketchCow And then expanding out in every direction with it, including better search and better interface.
02:11 πŸ”— SketchCow So, you know, the usual shaking up
02:24 πŸ”— Silent700 hooray for metadata
02:36 πŸ”— dashcloud is there a way you can get more collection options available to people, even if it's just a suggestion to staff/curators/etc that an item should go a certain place or be marked as a certain type of item?
03:27 πŸ”— nzmonkey_ dashcloud: wouldn't think you'd notice much of performance difference between hypervisors running a warrior
03:28 πŸ”— dashcloud thanks!
03:29 πŸ”— nzmonkey_ I was already running KVM on a headless server, so virtualbox was a bit hard for me
03:38 πŸ”— kyan Having trouble finding documentation on scripting Heritrix3, doesn't seem to be in the manualҀ¦ :( anyone know where it's hiding?
04:00 πŸ”— DFJustin SketchCow: <3
04:01 πŸ”— DFJustin talk metadata to me
04:03 πŸ”— joepie91 <DFJustin>talk metadata to me
04:03 πŸ”— joepie91 this should be in a topic. somewhere. anywhere.
04:08 πŸ”— SketchCow http://www.flickr.com/photos/sarahseverson/6245395188/
04:08 πŸ”— SketchCow https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BKZqw-RCEAAWL1W.jpg:large
10:42 πŸ”— SketchCow Uploading 139 gamebooks
10:42 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/gamebooks
10:43 πŸ”— SketchCow It'll fill out nicely.
11:03 πŸ”— Nemo_bis uh 12k https://archive.org/details/64er_sonderheft_77
11:19 πŸ”— duggan man, I think haven't seen a gamebook in about 20 years.
11:37 πŸ”— SketchCow We'll fix that
12:14 πŸ”— SketchCow --------------------------------------------------
12:14 πŸ”— SketchCow HYVES IS NOW TOP PRIORITY - LESS THAN 8 DAYS LEFT
12:15 πŸ”— SketchCow WE NEED TO DO 8 MILLION ACCOUNTS - WE HAVE 600,000 DONE
12:15 πŸ”— SketchCow GO TO #ANGERTHEHYVES TO READ UP OR JUST GO TO THE
12:15 πŸ”— SketchCow TRACKER AND AIM YOUR WARRIOR AT THE HYVES CONTENT GRAB
12:15 πŸ”— SketchCow --------------------------------------------------
12:17 πŸ”— Nemo_bis Seriously, SketchCow taught me what I believe the only legit use of all caps across the whole Internet
12:19 πŸ”— BlueMax I'm sure something like THE WORLD IS ABOUT TO END in serious context is probably worth it
12:20 πŸ”— Nemo_bis yeah but that will be of use only in about 5 billion years or so
12:20 πŸ”— Nemo_bis and I'm sure your heritage won't last that long, sorry
12:53 πŸ”— SketchCow I'm even running a seasaw on this one!
15:52 πŸ”— Jonimus damn Hyper-V doesn't support ova's I guess I do need to install VirtualBox...
15:53 πŸ”— zenguy_pc do you guys archive url shorteners?
15:55 πŸ”— Jonimus http://archiveteam.org/?title=URLTeam
16:24 πŸ”— Cowering someone should grab www.gamesniped.com .. owner has not posted in a month and is MIA to friends. Some pretty rare games have pics there, even one ebay auctions removes them
16:32 πŸ”— DFJustin started an archivebot run
16:39 πŸ”— Jonimus woo, got warrior loaded in Hyper-V, because I hate myself.
16:39 πŸ”— Jonimus If it get it working I'll post up a blog post or something with instructions
16:49 πŸ”— Jonimus AHh needed a legacy network adapter
16:49 πŸ”— Jonimus then it worked great
16:54 πŸ”— Jonimus where can I submit a feature request for the warrior, I want to run it at work but only at night.
17:11 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/isohunt.teapot.2013
17:11 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/isohunt.coffeepot.2013
17:12 πŸ”— SketchCow https://archive.org/details/isohunt.croissant.2013
17:28 πŸ”— DFJustin "soHunt was"
17:33 πŸ”— Cowering which hyves to run?
17:33 πŸ”— Cowering discovery/content
17:33 πŸ”— SketchCow 2 instances of content
17:34 πŸ”— SketchCow Typo fixed.
17:34 πŸ”— Cowering never use virtualbox.. i have to import twice for two instances?
17:35 πŸ”— antomatic No, one warrior will do up to 6 at once
17:35 πŸ”— DFJustin one vm, there's a setting on the dashboard for the number of concurrent items to run (2 by default)
17:35 πŸ”— antomatic but don't set it above 2
17:35 πŸ”— Cowering oh, it seems i have two already
17:35 πŸ”— DFJustin it makes 2 hdd images
17:35 πŸ”— SketchCow Some people think they can help by upping it, but it doesn't work because Hyves just rate limits.
17:35 πŸ”— Cowering 60 gig is a pittance
17:37 πŸ”— Cowering ah.. it is in advanced settings
17:37 πŸ”— Cowering guessing this auto rsyncs?
17:37 πŸ”— SketchCow Yes, you need not think about it again.
17:37 πŸ”— Cowering unless this Oracle product crashes my machine :)
17:40 πŸ”— Cowering 'rejecting possible infinite loop' is all i'm getting
17:42 πŸ”— xmc it'll be fine
17:42 πŸ”— xmc see, it's rejecting the loop
17:45 πŸ”— Cowering yay.. my name flashed by on leaderboard.. so something is working
17:46 πŸ”— Cowering what does hyves rate limit me to? i'm only getting 40K/S
17:51 πŸ”— xmc because they hate everything good
17:52 πŸ”— Cowering how do i pause warrior if needed?
17:53 πŸ”— SketchCow #warrior is really the best thing for this
17:59 πŸ”— DFJustin close virtualbox and save state
18:04 πŸ”— K4k SketchCow: I now have unlimited bandwidth at the house and, I know it's been a long time, but I still have the yahoo videos which I meant to get to sneakernet to you at HOPE/Defcon but never made it to either. Do you have an online repository I could offload to?
18:05 πŸ”— K4k If I can offload those videos I could free up enough space to resume downloading new content
18:33 πŸ”— bananapwn hello friends, has news of winamp.com's demise come to your attention? They have had forums for a long time but I don't know how far back they actually keep
18:34 πŸ”— bananapwn shutoff date is dec. 20.

18:38 πŸ”— bananapwn lol/cry: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?t=360236
18:38 πŸ”— balrog "No. Winamp & SHOUTcast are safe"
18:38 πŸ”— balrog yeah right...
18:38 πŸ”— bananapwn "winamp.com will be fine" (for a couple months)
18:42 πŸ”— PepsiMax http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=AOL_Music
18:43 πŸ”— PepsiMax
18:43 πŸ”— PepsiMax The rumour is ShoutCAST and Winamp are safe for now.
18:44 πŸ”— bananapwn that would seem to be a reference to this post: http://forums.winamp.com/showpost.php?p=2930593&postcount=2
18:44 πŸ”— Lord_Nigh archive anyway ask questions later
18:44 πŸ”— bananapwn the front page says unequivocally that it is going away dec20 anyhow
18:47 πŸ”— DFJustin who's gonna whip the llama's ass now
18:47 πŸ”— DFJustin that shit doesn't whip itself
19:13 πŸ”— Schbirid Winamp.com and associated web services will no longer be available past December 20, 2013. Additionally, Winamp Media players will no longer be available for download. Please download the latest version before that date. See release notes for latest improvements to this last release.
19:13 πŸ”— Schbirid Thanks for supporting the Winamp community for over 15 years.
19:14 πŸ”— DFJustin http://archivebot.at.ninjawedding.org:4567/
19:14 πŸ”— K4k whoa, what happened? I loved winamp back in the day
19:15 πŸ”— DFJustin they got bought out by aol ages ago and now it's bean counting time
19:21 πŸ”— bananapwn thank you DFJustin
19:21 πŸ”— bananapwn there's probably posts of 1998 me on that forum somewhere, maybe I'll see it again someday
19:27 πŸ”— edoc does that mean shoutcast too? nothing on that side and the winamp one is vague. "associated web services?"
19:29 πŸ”— Silent700 Better whip that llama's ass while we still can
19:47 πŸ”— eprillios Does it matter when I lose my connection during the Warrior's progress?
19:50 πŸ”— K4k is there a channel specifically for Winamp that we should point people towards if they're willing to assist?
19:59 πŸ”— midas1 http://www.theverge.com/2013/11/20/5126666/winamp-media-player-shutting-down-after-over-15-years
19:59 πŸ”— Jonimus Woo got a warrior running on windows 8 Hyper-V and got the scripts running on my home NAS machine
20:01 πŸ”— midas1 i wonder what the effects are on shoutcast and the shoutcast website
21:38 πŸ”— bananapwn I suppose someone could ask on the winamp forums if it's still possible to sign up
21:49 πŸ”— Marcelo eprillios: it'll keep trying to download/upload until you're connected again.
22:20 πŸ”— Nathan_ So, with WinAmp shutting down and all, I wanted to know if you'd archive all the plugins and skins. We have 15 years of history at stake!
22:23 πŸ”— DFJustin archivebot is on the job
22:38 πŸ”— Nathan_ Archivebot?
22:41 πŸ”— DDG a bot that archives websites
22:41 πŸ”— DDG #archivebot
22:42 πŸ”— DDG and the webinterface of it (where you see doing it stugg) is at http://archivebot.at.ninjawedding.org:4567/
