| 09:47:00 | <Nemo_bis> | someone available to help me do a curl POST requests script? |
| 09:49:00 | <Nemo_bis> | i'm probably doing something horribly wrong with urlencoding and other escaping but I might smash my head against it for two hours before I fix it myself |
| 09:51:00 | <alard> | Nemo_bis: Yes. |
| 09:51:00 | <Nemo_bis> | thans |
| 12:26:00 | <alard> | SketchCow: Rough estimate of dailybooth = 2MB/ID * 2,000,000 IDs = 4.5TB. |
| 12:27:00 | <alard> | Probably a bit more than that. |
| 17:30:00 | <Lord_Nigh> | question that is actually on topic: when will archive.org/wayback machine use the robots.txt as existed at the time of the page archiving to decide whether to block access, as opposed to using the robots.txt of right now? there are several sites which had good info back in the day which is impossible to get because the current squatters have a 'block all' robots.txt |
| 17:32:00 | <mistym> | Lord_Nigh: Yeah, that bugs me a lot too. It's the problem with taking domain name as the definitive identifier for a site, when the owner and identity of the domain itself can change. |
| 17:33:00 | <Lord_Nigh> | i'm not sure if sedo marketing (a huge multimillion dollar squatting operation) does block all on all sites they have, but some other squatters do |
| 17:49:00 | <Lord_Nigh> | heck there was even a legal case where the defense lawyers for a site which had posted some info changed the robots.txt DURING THE TRIAL. i gather the judge wasn't too happy about that. |
| 17:50:00 | <Lord_Nigh> | hence i think the whole 'retcon-blocking' by changing current robots.txt could allow site suppression |
| 21:28:00 | <Pepote> | WWW.JIZZDAY.COM |
| 21:29:00 | <ersi> | Lord_Nigh: There's #internetarchive for repeating the robots.txt stuff of Wayback Machine |
| 21:47:00 | <Lord_Nigh> | i'm in too many irc channels already |
| 21:49:00 | <ersi> | Yeah, well I'm pretty tired of hearing the massive cuntflap around that particular feature in here |
| 21:49:00 | <chronomex> | misfeature |
| 21:49:00 | <ersi> | It's related to archiving, sure. It's not related to us, archiving |
| 22:12:00 | <Lord_Nigh> | sorry. |
