thanks JAA

JAA
arkiver: Absolutely better than nothing, yeah. Too bad that we only heard about it last night; it was announced in April apparently. :-/
-
arkiver
we got quite some time
-
arkiver
we may not archive all videos due to size, but at least all metadata can be archived
-
arkiver
lets think of a channel
-
JAA
Yeah, metadata and thumbnails would be a good start. Videos would definitely be huge.
-
arkiver
i see there are different qualities for videos
-
arkiver
maybe low quality can be done
-
arkiver
i see some sequential-looking IDs
-
JAA
(This is about XTube, for those confused.)
-
arkiver
yeah NSFW obviously
-
JAA
Yeah, and /video-watch/-$ID works to access it without the slug. Canonical URL is in the HTML.
-
arkiver
yep
-
arkiver
seems pretty doable, will have a project up soon
-
JAA
:-)
-
JAA
Now the hard part (pun intended)... Coming up with a channel name.
-
JAA
Can't think of anything with XTube. Maybe a pun on MindGeek though? They'll undoubtedly shutter more of their sites in the future.
-
JAA
Actually, might be a good idea to look whether any of those also have some hidden shutdown announcement now.
-
arkiver
yeah

I wont be taking part in this one I have made my thoughts on mindgeek clear before.
-
arkiver
what are those thoughts
-
flashfire42
Their history of illegal content and not doing a very good at policing their site. Piracy is one thing. The stuff they have been looked into for is another thing entirely
-
flashfire42
The 2 current lawsuits against them
-
flashfire42
-
flashfire42
Do as you please but I wont be touching that one. Look forward to future projects though given my limited capacity to help from an internet connection with a data cap lol
-
flashfire42
I will put forward MindFuckUp as a channel name if you do insist on doing this though

Frogging101
isn't archiving porn kind of pointless
-
Frogging101
There's tons and tons of it, it's very non-interesting/historically significant, and it's downloaded so much that it almost archives itself
-
Frogging101
JAA: mindfreak?
-
arkiver
how about mindfuck
-
OrIdow6
That's very good but I don't like having "fuck" in the channel name
-
OrIdow6
"mindbreak" on a similar theme? "nevermind"?
-
arkiver
OrIdow6: yeah, somewhat agree with that
-
arkiver
nevermind is nice
-
Doran
I'm with Frogging101 on the pointlessness of archiving porn, lol, but I do like that channel name as far as wordplay goes
-
arkiver
lets do #nevermind
-
JAA
Much of Bethesda's community forums are gone now. I never got a meaningful reply from them about the mod comments that disappeared early, by the way.
