[00:00] Why hello. [00:00] OK, taking advise. [00:01] cdbbsarchive needs to split. It's now shareware and jolly roger living together. [00:02] how much of each? [00:02] looking over the list I see mostly shareware... or do you mean recent uploads? [00:09] I don't quite know. [00:09] (How much of each) [00:09] But I need to pull stuff out of cdbbsarchive [00:10] https://archive.org/details/cdroms is taken as a URL [00:10] Unless xmc or others have a different idea, I'm thinking cdsoftware [00:20] hum [00:21] is this a new home for jollyrogerware or shareware? [00:24] "foundsoftware" [00:30] "Oh, look what we found here." [00:34] who wants to save some gamemaker games? yoyogames seems to be closing their gamemaker sandbox site [00:35] i have a list of 109925 games [00:35] chfoo: ugh, they are? :( [00:36] SketchCow: cdsoftware is fine, imho [00:36] or foundsoftware, but... do we want to separate it by media type? [00:37] SketchCow: going to ask again: piles of dr. dobbs journals that appear to predate those scanned in the paywalled digital archives and other industry magazines. want? [00:37] like, they would have to be scanned and all [00:38] I'm not saying "do you want them" because I know you do but more like "what to do" [00:40] https://archive.org/details/SFBG-10-08-2014 [00:40] I trust you [00:41] Upload them and I will deal [00:41] paper, not scanned [00:41] or I wouldn't be asking :) [00:48] i'm starting to upload my pdfs that i could find [00:48] of San Francisco Bay Guardian [00:48] its not everything [00:48] 1 from 2013 and 39 from 2014 [00:49] uploaded: https://archive.org/details/San_Francisco_Bay_Guardian_47.52 [00:50] godane: nice :) [01:10] cdromlibrary? [01:10] I guess that leaves out dvds but the inclusive terms aren't as catchy [01:20] makes you think of this rather than the jolly roger http://www.hau.edu.ph/university_library/images/facilities/erss1.jpg [01:21] the twilight cds/dvds collection can stay in cdbbsarchive i think [01:22] cause thats mostly odd to fit any where else [01:22] I was also thinking that a good sub-collection would be 'CD-ROM Reference Shelf' with all the old encyclopedias and maps and whatnot [01:36] thx godane [01:37] sf library has everything but first two years.. on microfiche! [01:43] DFJustin: [01:43] 1. I have no emotional wreckage bunching up DVD and CD [01:44] 2. I would happily make a CD-ROM Reference Collection as long as someone helps go through our piles [01:44] 3. people should go through our piles. [01:51] SketchCow: does FOS have disk space? i estimated that gamemaker has about 500GB of games [01:52] 3tb free on one drive, 5tb on another [01:53] 01:43 < pfhawkins> OK, my first ever exposure to newsgroups has me sold on them [01:53] 01:43 < pfhawkins> how did we ever abandon this amazing tech [01:58] pfhawkins: when the attorney general of new york banned them, that's when [02:20] the gamemaker project is ready. Wiki: http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=GameMaker_Sandbox Tracker: http://tracker.archiveteam.org/gamemakersandbox/ . The project is listed in the warriors page and should be ready to run [02:26] source code for manually running: https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/gamemaker-sandbox-grab [02:37] I have a list of reference ones already because ocd [02:41] http://pastebin.com/0E3qg32c [02:42] there's a bunch in your latest batch too though [02:51] SketchCow: https://files.app.net/w48hk4C5v.jpg [02:53] fuck yeahhhhhh [02:55] isn't "because ocd" redundant punctuation on this channel ;) [02:55] probably [02:58] the whole place there is being torn up. I was there today and will try to stop by tomorrow; those are getting saved as is most of the interesting stuff. they just rushed this entire thing [02:59] annoyingly enough it doesn't seem many of these even are available via the usual paywalled channels [03:04] ocd is the reason i'm here [03:04] ocd is our last, best chance to avoid infopocalypse [04:27] ALL HAIL OCD [04:52] chfoo: Small project? No channel? [04:55] all the items are already loaded in the tracker except for the ones that need to be requeued due to anti-hotlink feature. i can't think of a clever channel name. [05:00] Hmm... no idea :D [05:00] *ideas [05:03] maybe something like gamebreaker or uhohgames [05:08] I'm fine with gamebreaker [05:09] Does the new rate limiting increase the wait time until an item is received and it drops the wait? [05:16] yes, the wait time should reset back to 60 seconds once it gets an item [05:23] http://www.zvents.com/support/closure_notice [05:54] chfoo: Server's returning 502s already :P [05:55] http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/ Says it's on maint [06:04] oh no did we miss our chance to get the sandbox [06:08] BlueMax: It went up just as you said that [06:09] oh thank god [06:09] I'm gonna get my Warrior going right now [06:11] (used to love the sandbox back in the day) [06:12] I'm moving a warrior over [06:13] I think my client exploded. Not getting any items. [06:13] Maybe it failed a bunch from the 502s? chfoo can I get a clear please? [06:57] I've got no items for like half an hour now, stop stealing them all :P [06:58] Oops :( [07:02] BlueMax: Think it only gives out 20 items at a time. I'll stop my workers so you guys can get some items :D Waiting for a reset anyway. [07:14] looks like i don't have all of factionfiles.com [07:16] but i maybe more recent ids that start in the 516xxx area [07:16] anyways you guys got about 9 to 10gb of it anyways and it shouldn't be going down yet [07:27] oh shit a game I made a long time ago just got archived [07:30] lol [07:57] http://blog.moolah.io/2014/10/14/moolah-is-having-to-close-its-doors/ [08:01] Guess they ran out of moolah. [08:26] * BlueMax stabs ersi for that remark. [08:33] schbirid: well, to be fair, that was a pretty transparent post [11:16] Elegance: you're cleared [12:04] arkiver, SketchCow, I just came up with a name for that Halo stats project: Staylo :p [14:08] Word of warning for folks downloading pdf pages from Issuu in batches... some of them come back "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" but are zero length, so check your files before concatenating or uploading them. [14:20] meeting with sf bay guardian ex-staff today at 9am [14:20] they might have someone who still has access to the old CMS/database [14:39] nice @ godaneinbox - 40 issues of SFBG pdf [15:25] http://blog.moolah.io/2014/10/15/the-reports-of-my-death-have-been-greatly-exaggerated/ [16:03] script to download a pdf from Issuu (requires a bunch of stuff that I just happen to have installed): https://github.com/aeakett/attools/blob/master/download_from_issuu.sh [16:28] I'll never understand why people use issuu [18:28] nemo: it's instant ios/ipad support i think for newspapers/magazines [18:28] thx saddm [18:29] talked to sfbg reporters today, they have years of word files they want to upload to archive- pre-publication files [18:29] might be able to dump whole drupal database [18:29] cool [18:29] might be able to get new owners to put website back up to be scraped [18:29] nice @ pdfunite.. [18:29] lol @ zsh-- keepin it real! [18:42] it's the range syntax that I know off the top of my head :-) [18:42] i'm an old school NeXT dude so j'enjoy [18:45] I really wish I could figure out an automatic way to get the full PDF download link... getting the pages one at a time is OK, but the original would definitly be better. [18:46] It's also really strange how some pages don't have pdfs... just jpgs [18:59] yes covers are only jpg [18:59] so if u grab each page u might get whole issue without cover [18:59] except for 'original file' link that godane found via facebook login [18:59] that is full pdf [19:00] The covers aren't necessarily jpg... I downloaded 4 or 5 docs and only one had a jpg cover [19:01] I ran across another doc whre only about 5-10% had pdf pages and for the rest I had to grab jpgs [19:06] ah soo [19:09] maybe it depends if there is text on the page? [19:10] That's what I initially thought, but then I found an image-only page that had a pdf... but it does skew that way. [20:23] Hi Jason - thanks so much for getting back to me! [20:23] The editor wants: "screenshots of 90's AOL interface: logging on, chatrooms, downloading files, whatever can be found" [20:23] Barry Crimmins, our documentary subject, was an early(ish) internet user, and championed legislation regulating some of the less savory uses of those early chat rooms. We just need general images, they can be still, screenshots, of that era (mid '90s) of AOL, for each of the above actions. Shots of a logon, chat rooms, a file downloading. Each or all of these. [20:23] ... [20:23] My interest in helping them has diminished. [20:24] If someone wants it, I'll give contact info. [20:29] So. [20:29] We need a name for the Halo project [20:30] Muad-Dib was thinking of #staylo [20:30] any others? [20:30] lololo? (Halo halo halo > 'lo lo lo' > lololo) [20:30] yes, I like lololo [20:30] heh [20:30] Still thinking [20:31] I'll wait a bit then ;) [20:36] #yolohalo [20:37] you only halo once [20:37] yoho [20:37] Either [20:40] SketchCow: lol. how about they get a copy of AOL 4.0 and fire it up? :D [21:03] Let's go with #yolohalo [21:04] "yoho" is maybe a bit far off from "halo" :P [21:04] So for the Halo project, please join: #yolohalo [21:25] https://github.com/4pr0n/rip [21:26] what is this, another open-source fusker? [21:26] it seems fairly off-topic [21:27] how so [21:42] (23:41:56) LD100: lol why are you changing code to halo? in qwiki? [21:43] arkiver: ^ [21:44] it's ok, he reverted it haha [21:44] folders are hard, yo [22:03] heh i love Barry Crimmins he's pretty amazing [22:04] cool someone's docu'ing him [22:04] refer them to youtube [23:35] YO [23:35] sfbg.com back up [23:35] the owners put it back up for a little bit [23:35] etc [23:35] http://www.sfbg.com/specials/best-bay-2012 [23:35] can we get archive.org to scrape or whatever?? [23:35] owners agreed to put SF Bay Guardian back up yee haw [23:35] just for a bit tho [23:41] http://www.sfbg.com/issue_archive [23:41] back to 2006 [23:47] marc: a bit meaning how long? [23:54] Kazzy: everyone makes mistaked every now and then ;) [23:55] shows I'm getting tired [23:58] marc: archivebot is downloading sfbg.com, I put it in [23:59] do you know how long the site will stay online?
