[00:53] I realize having people upload stuff by FTP, they should really upload a "DONE" file so I know I can touch it. [01:00] even better, upload final filesize and hashes [01:04] hmm [01:04] SketchCow: what's the rationale behind upload by FTP? upload resuming? [01:08] Raionale? [01:08] That's quite a word to use. [01:08] I find people are sometimes sitting on top of a large amount of data, but they don't know how to use the scripts, or the stupid little tricks in the system to make sure it all renders properly. [01:08] And so sometimes, I just say "FTP this pile here, and I'll deal with it." [01:10] I'm the world's friend. [01:14] I see [02:53] Hello archiveteam [02:57] So, I know archiveteam and achive.org aren't related... but is there some crossover? [03:00] Aszurom: We send most of our stuff to archive.org once we've got it, but we're not a part of them [03:00] I'm trying to figure out how they accept things [03:00] I was talking to the former editor of Computer Games magazine, and I have the entire 200+ issue run available to me [03:01] I don't think I could scan 150 pages x 200 issues myself in a timely manner [03:01] but archive.org is proving very difficult to figure out how to send anything to [03:01] or I suck at reading [03:02] Fair enough. I'm honestly not too sure, from what I've seen people usually get directed to info@archive.org [03:02] I'll ping SketchCow and see if he can point you anywhere more useful! [03:03] thanks [03:03] I've been trying to get @textfiles to respond but it's not getting me anywhere [03:05] Ah yeah, you might need to stick around a while to get a response in here but someone should be able to help you out [03:06] I'll stay in channel, but zzzz soon. 5am comes early. [03:06] at least it's a govt holiday so I can slack hard tomorrow [05:12] e-mail jason@textfiles.com [06:26] Aszurom: anybody can submit things to archive.org [06:26] just register an account, and hit the 'upload' button in the top right corner after you've logged in [06:26] if you do not have a digital copy, then you can arrange stuff with jason [06:27] but with sufficient automation, scanning doesn't take all that long :) [06:27] if you have copies that do not have to be left intact, then you could even just cut it into separate pages and feed it through a form feed scanner [13:09] Ouch https://archive.org/details/YourComputer_198202 [14:41] would it be possible for us to grab the old Halo 2 and 3 gameplay statistics from https://halo.bungie.net/ ? [14:42] they´re a couple of million games, some of them got information purged, others still have it [14:43] and the stuff hasnt been updated since another developer officially took over halo in 2012 [14:44] this is stuff going back to 2004 [18:10] huh, there's no TOSEC for NeXT [18:33] there's a MESS software list but it's pretty sparse https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/hash/next.xml [18:37] AlsoVonGu: do you have anything for NeXT? [18:37] it's hard to find anything :/ [18:37] *especially* original software [19:27] at long last, the final twitch stragglers are making it up to IA [19:28] I need to figure out a group-by-date-strategy for twitpic cloudfront WARCs next, that'll be fun [19:29] by fun I mean http://www.latein-lk.de/Bilder/XTra/Medien/Event_horizon.jpg [20:13] Muad-Dib: of course that is possible to grab. it just might not show up as nicely as on the real website in the wayback machine [20:14] Please give me some example urls of what exactly needs to be saved [20:14] Is the website going down? [20:30] arkiver, I am not sure when it´ll be going down, but given that it´s a lot of data and it has been stale for two years AND the company hosting it doesnt have anything to do with halo anymore [20:30] I think its better to be safe than sorry [20:34] I´m typing up a Piratepad with additional info and stuff to grab now [20:34] https://piratenpad.de/p/halo-stats-bungie-archiveteam [20:34] arkiver ^ [20:47] Hey SketchCow, I know you used to play Halo, you might want to take a look at this [20:47] Muad-Dib: so no new stuff is being added to halo.bungie.net ? [20:48] no new stuff is being added [20:48] its being kept there for ¨posterity¨, but its a lot of data [20:48] i´m not sure whether Bungie is willing to keep hosting it for long [20:48] Ok, I'll probably make a project [20:49] Muad-Dib: will be an awesome project ":) [20:49] Good thing is those numbers are incremental https://halo.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3fileid=123990987 [20:49] maybe we should split the project up per game [20:49] Muad-Dib: give me all the urls of the different games [20:49] so we do Halo 2 first, and Halo 3 and ODST second and third [20:50] halo 1? [20:50] taking a look at that [20:50] halo 1 had no online multiplayer [20:50] Does it have any data? [20:51] not of played matches, no [20:51] just some pages describing the game itself [20:51] Ok, I'll be taking a good look at url structure and everything this evening [20:51] will eat now [20:51] nice man :) [20:52] bon appetit [20:52] thanks! [20:52] dankje ;) [20:54] the amount of Dutch people in here is steadily increasing [20:54] :P [20:55] kanker :P [20:56] nederdraaad up in this bitch, joepie91 [20:57] joepie91, https://8chan.co/nederdraad/ [21:00] lol [21:01] dutch chanspeak is weird [21:02] though I have to admit this one is good: https://8chan.co/nederdraad/src/1411230945984.jpg [21:26] joepie91, I cracked up at this one: https://8chan.co/nederdraad/src/1413071678113.png [21:27] psst, #-bs [21:27] ^ [21:57] prolly, yes [22:03] Muad-Dib: hehehe
