I'm the opposite
Them: You should check out this show I've been watching, it's great. Do you have Disn-----
Me: I can get anything online. How do you spell the name of the show? Thanks for the rec. If you need help getting anything you aren't subscribed to let me know.
same same same
can anyone please point me to some piece of writing that explains how IA didn't willfully self destruct?
everything i read about this legal action, even when I read IA's stuff about, sounds moronic. doomed to fail and lose big for themselves and for others by setting a loser precident.
It's great that these projects already exist
but it hurts accessibility that you need to be "in the know" to find out about it.
every media outlet has to mention WayBackMachine; it's such a great outreach and legitimizing
Ive always used cryptsetup and never seen any intructions like how you are describing. I wonder if you have a different use case than I do? It seems like adding more complexity to start with one decryption method only to change it soon. Why?
Dont just consider if its "legal". But also if it is aligned with institution policy.
Depending on the details maybe it would be the kind of thing theyd have to declare when publishing? Like as a conflict of interest.
Could be other equity type avenues depending on details.
You can use something as simple as a browser extension like SingleFile that can automatically download complete, contained copies of anything bookmarked or only certain URLs.
https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Web-Archiving-Community has a wide range of options
But all our tripod, angelfire, geocities etc websites were little art projects.
i search for error messages all the time on ddg and it usually finds relevant results. it fails when errors are not sufficiently obscure, such as a common python error occurring in many code bases, permissions errors, vaguely-worded errors etc. But there is no way for the internet to guess context in such a situation. spam is not a problem.
if google is so bad stop using it.
and there are websites like https://wiby.me/ that exist to assist people in finding the old-type content.
Sometimes I have resorted to searching blog domains and it isn't bad for the right queries.
You know what the claw end of the hammer is for right?
Actually 2 hammers are really good to take out a nail sometimes. You use one hammer to tap the claw of the other one under the nail.
Honestly I have a cat paw type nail puller but 9/10 hammer is the answer.
I agree. So much of the web now functionally happens on the socials which are not indexed/accessible to crawlers.
You can request mail carriers to do this in a lot of places. Usually a service for elderly people who are living alone. If the mail carrier notices the mail isn't getting taken out of the box they will have a process to alert someone to check in.
It is a public service provided at no (low?) cost which merely formalizes an act of basic human decency. It is not gonna make anybody rich.
