12:41:03 <Rno> Hi
12:45:11 <thuban> hello
12:51:12 <Rno> Why isn't YouTube archiveteam Warrior's project of choice?
12:51:23 <Limeysoda> Yeah, Ive the same question
12:51:43 <Limeysoda> Btw, hello Rno :)
12:51:49 <Rno> Sup
12:58:04 <thuban> that would probably be a good question for #down-the-tube
12:58:37 <Rno> Thanks
13:26:06 <HCross> Rno: warriors are often run by very slow connections
13:26:09 <HCross> and they just get in the way
13:26:22 <HCross> when files are large and upload slots are limited, we need machines with decent throughput
13:27:27 <Mayk78> what do you see as descent troughput / upload ?
21:40:23 <VerifiedJ> https://www.vice.com/en/article/qj8xz3/a-defunct-video-hosting-site-is-flooding-normal-websites-with-hardcore-porn
21:41:20 <VerifiedJ> defunct website in question is Vidme, which we archived in 2017 when it closed.
22:11:52 <arkiver> VerifiedJ: hah, yep
22:18:19 <JAA> lol nice
22:18:30 <JAA> Although I mean, of course there is hardcore porn on regular ass-websites... :-)
23:16:50 <Frogging101> VerifiedJ: and uh, how is it flooding normal websites exactly?
23:17:01 <Frogging101> (I just read the URL)
23:18:42 <VerifiedJ> old vid.me video embeds.  vid.me domain now redirect to a porn site's homepage.
23:21:26 <VerifiedJ> *redirects
23:22:17 <VerifiedJ> (vid .me links are NSFW, obliviously)
23:22:54 <Frogging101> ah
