08:52 🔗 ivan` I see that twitter.com is no longer excluded from wayback
08:55 🔗 DFJustin http://web.archive.org/web/20070322222143/http://twitter.com/textfiles
08:56 🔗 ivan` hah neat
09:00 🔗 BlueMax lol socks
13:33 🔗 SadDM I'm trying the ia python uploader for the 1st time, but I'm having problems. The command runs and everything seems ok, but when I go to view it on archive.org, it says "Item cannot be found."
13:33 🔗 SadDM Can anybody help shed some light on my problem (exact command I'm using: http://pastebin.com/MDMMDaYe)?
13:36 🔗 ZoeB Hmm, I can't see it either, sorry
14:18 🔗 SadDM ok... new info. when I check the log I see "403 Client Error: Forbidden"
20:26 🔗 dr-spangl Hello
20:28 🔗 drspangle I used to hang around here some years ago now, helped a bit with the yahoo video download effort
20:44 🔗 drspangle Is this place still active at all? would be a shame if not
20:54 🔗 SadDM Yup, this is still the place to be. This channel is a bit quiet sometimes (#archiveteam-bs tends to be a bit more lively), but that's mostly because folks are busy getting stuff done.
20:58 🔗 drspangle that's fine
20:58 🔗 godane i'm here and in -bs
20:58 🔗 drspangle A quite channel where people do stuff is what I need :P Spent too long in active channels chatting about nothing
20:59 🔗 godane i sort of the crazy one around here
20:59 🔗 godane i'm grabbing the news podcasts
20:59 🔗 godane from like all major networks
21:00 🔗 drspangle are there any projects where I might be of any use? I'm pretty decent with python and PHP nowadays, or should I be looking for extra places to archive?
21:01 🔗 drspangle if the latter, are there much in the way of rules, should I be looking for approval before archival? Are there some notes I should keep in mind? I know with yahoo video we were working to ensure that timestamps were right and things, which was a tad tricky
21:02 🔗 balrog http://www.hotud.org
21:02 🔗 balrog Bad news everybody!
21:02 🔗 balrog Okay so this\'ll be short, but in all likelihood, I am going to be shutting this page down. It\'s expensive (very), and I do not think it\'s needed anymore given the success of GOG.com, Abandonia, and a few others. I simply don\'thave the time to keep it up and running, nor can do I have the time to make it the kickass community that I think it needs to be. I tried to ping abandonia about taking it over, but I never got a
21:02 🔗 balrog response. if anyone else has any alternative ideas, drop me a line at admin at hotud.org and we can figure something out.
21:03 🔗 godane we grabbed a copy like a month ago i think
21:03 🔗 balrog including the files?
21:04 🔗 godane i think it grabbed everything on www.hotud.org
21:04 🔗 godane but not sure since it was thur the archivebot
21:07 🔗 SadDM drspangle: You should probably just start grabbing stuff that you care about (godane loves tv news, I'm into table-top rpg stuff, ohhdemgir seems to be a porn aficionado), and keep an eye on this channel for bigger stuff that you might be able to pitch in on.
21:07 🔗 drspangle okely dokely
21:07 🔗 SadDM http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Main_Page is probably a good place to have a look through too.
21:09 🔗 drspangle yeah
21:14 🔗 DFJustin we now have a spiffy tool called the archivebot which will do a crawl of standard websites on request and put them into WARC format for the wayback machine
21:14 🔗 DFJustin see #archivebot
21:15 🔗 DFJustin larger projects get distributed out to the warrior which you can run on your pc http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=ArchiveTeam_Warrior
21:15 🔗 DFJustin I don't think there's anything using that at the moment though
21:16 🔗 godane is it bad that i want a put this cooking show up on IA?: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotch_Cooking_Show#The_New_Dotch_Cooking_Show
21:16 🔗 godane *is it bad that i want a put this cooking show up on IA?: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotch_Cooking_Show
21:17 🔗 godane anyways you guys may get The New Dotch Cooking Show cause someone upload 33 episodes of it to d-addicts
21:31 🔗 godane CNN Money Archive: Dumping junk, living digitally: https://archive.org/details/n_cult_of_less_belongings.cnnmoney_576x324_dl
21:45 🔗 godane looks like that guy was in hackcollege
