00:51:29<nicolas17>AWS posted a new update on their UAE region
00:51:37<nicolas17>"Due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, both affected regions have experienced physical impacts to infrastructure as a result of drone strikes. In the UAE, two of our facilities were directly struck, while in Bahrain, a drone strike in close proximity to one of our facilities caused physical impacts to our infrastructure. These strikes have caused structural damage, disrupted power delivery to our infrastructure, and in some cases
00:51:38<nicolas17>required fire suppression activities that resulted in additional water damage."

01:11:06<nicolas17>kline: afaik yes
01:11:42<nicolas17>they used some vague "impacted by objects that struck the data center, creating sparks and fire" euphemism at first

09:09:03<masterx244|m>pokechu22: there is a way to get to the website data itself to clear cookies when they prevent site load. Settings, Security and privacy right over the password saving section. you can manage the data there and then delete it per-site

10:56:41<DeepSpace>Hey there, I got the news that this site that contains tons of ROMs, Magazine stuff etc, will shut down at the end of the month. https://myrient.erista.me/files/ "Myrient will shut down on 31 March 2026."
10:56:41<DeepSpace>The files are easy to get, since simply pasting this URL into jDownloader was enough for it to list everything. It's 351.492 TB for 2,908,889 files.
10:56:41<DeepSpace>However, we don't have enought space for that (maybe not even one third). That's why I would like to suggest creating a project for this site. It would be a shame if this collection would get lost. It seems there are some rare thing in there, too.
10:56:41<DeepSpace>If you should add it, I am going to leave my PC running 24/7 and tell the others.
10:57:18<DeepSpace>TIL that IRC does not support linebreaks and instead creates an individual message for each line
10:57:34<@arkiver>DeepSpace: thanks! we know about this one, but... it's huge, and hard drive space is not free.
10:57:41<@arkiver>you mention there is rare stuff on there
10:57:53<DeepSpace>Well, it seems to be the case
10:58:32<@arkiver>what i want to prevent is spending 200 TB on something that is easily available elsewhere, or very well mirrored in general
10:58:59<@arkiver>DeepSpace: are you able to help identify the parts that are most important to archive, and which parts are already very widely spread and less important to archive?
11:00:00<DeepSpace>I think it is save to assume that at least some of the ROMs are available elsewhere. For example, it is possible to download Wii U ROMs by using JNUS Download, but I am not sure if the site might have some that are unavailable elsewhere.
11:02:38<@arkiver>DeepSpace: what would you say are the sections o the site that are most important to archive?
11:06:03<steering>honestly myrient is so slow that i don't know much of it could be saved, even if there were space for it...
11:07:16<@arkiver>this is the problem with tons of people archiving the same thing
11:07:38<DeepSpace>The issue is, I haven't checked what exactly they have, and I just heard about it yesterday. So, currently, I don't know. I would need a bit of time to check it out. So I suggest I will do that and come back later? But it will take a bit of time.
11:07:38<DeepSpace>As for harddrive space, I could provide a few TBs, and I could ask the others if they would add their drive. But I don't know if that is possible with the VM? I only know that I can let it run and it downlaods things, but is it even possible to use my own drive with it?
11:09:30<DeepSpace>We currently have a list of some things relatet to Nintendo and Pokémon we are going to download. It's about 10 TB, There are another 9,34 TB for some Famicom DVDs he listed, not sure what's in there, he said "Famitsu Wave all DVDs, The Video Game Years, PlayZones, some Nintendo Magazine". https://myrient.erista.me/files/Redump/DVD-Video/
11:11:24<steering>i've been downloading https://myrient.erista.me/files/Redump/Sony%20-%20PlayStation/ for like 3.5 days now and ive gotten... 180 of the files. still on the A's.
11:13:27<DeepSpace>True... Didn't consider the speed. I tried a 60 MB file and it wants to take 2 minutes at 300-500 kb/s

11:36:01<@arkiver>many of the .ir sites use some interstitial "CAPTCHA" page (not really CAPTCHA, they solve something and set a cookie)
11:36:23<@arkiver>looking into a solution for that and setting up a project for the sites. this means we'll start archiving .ir, but limited sites.

12:08:34<c3manu>DeepSpace, arkiver: i’m not exactly in the loop, but i've seen a note in the Deathwatch entry saying "Jason has said no mirroring it to IA, and given it’s mostly likely already on IA, it’s unlikely it’ll be duplicated again on IA." https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Deathwatch#2026-03
12:10:24<c3manu>i'm not aware of the context of this quote, so it could be an argument for archiving stuff using #archivebot instead. either way it makes sense to just download (or at least submit to the IA afterwards) only what's not already there
12:11:15<c3manu>given the apparent speed issues, just downloading what's still missing would make more sense, if it's feasible
12:14:11<c3manu>JAA has been grabbing an index for https://myrient.erista.me/files/ in 2025-01, i think i'm gonna do that again
12:21:19<DeepSpace>Thanks for the heads up. I don't think I will do anything tomorrow, but when I do, I will check the Internet Archive

14:22:51<klea>I mean that the reference is there to the post by Jason so that it can be known he said that. The URL of Myrient doesn't state that Jason is against archival of it to IA.
14:24:03<klea>And that if you want, you can put the URL of Myrient as a reference in the section above where there's a reference to the death message that was received via Telegram and published on transfer.
