You’re going to be really happy when you find out it’s a whole gif!

Helicopter, obviously!

I’m not 100% following, but if this is content that’s gone from being publicly viewable, uploading it to archive.org seems appropriate (but don’t take my word for it). Though if you do upload, it sounds like just the “part files” or just the “full files” would be enough. You could then also seed the torrent there.

The imgur links you might try uploading to ArchiveTeam’s imgur-grab project. Looking at the tracker, the archival seems currently half dead, but I’m sure they’ll get around to saving what’s left. (Unless it’s dead because imgur made it nigh impossible, which I can definitely imagine)

np. Right now you could set it to ask.fm (shuts down dec 1.). Zero IP blocking or rate limiting. Puts your machine to good use.

Not all projects listed in the warrior are actually active. Check out https://tracker.archiveteam.org/ for all the current projects and see if the one you want to archive is actually active (has people receiving and sending in items)

There are always several projects to choose from.

The URLs project plays it fast and loose and archives an assortment of random URLs. This one has an IP block warning.

Some have NSFW warnings.

Other projects aim to archive a single site as accurately as possible (possibly with a deadline when the site is shutting down), so they can’t afford to have their warriors blocked or rate limited. If you are, that would be because of an issue. You can choose to archive sites you don’t want to visit to avoid issues.

I was going to mention ArchiveTeam’s warrior because I thought it wouldn’t be listed, since computing isn’t really the important thing you’re donating, more your virgin IP address and internet connection… but it’s third on the list!

If you store it in compressed chunks (or on a file system that supports compression, I guess), that should be a great deal smaller, being text only.

They supposedly never delete good stuff, just make it unavailable, as you said. Maybe we’ll get them in a hundred or so years!

ArchiveTeam’s uploads also don’t have torrent files (anymore). Their wiki says that they disabled it to lighten the load on IA’s servers, as creating a .torrent file for a 10+GB upload takes considerable time, especially if it has to be redone.

Ah I see now that the image you posted was from tineye as well! Sadly I could only find similar covers, not that exact one. Archiveteam grabbed many gigabytes of stuff from the site, but this picture was not among them.

The one from fangamer seems good but if you’re looking for specifically that image, it should be in there: https://tineye.com/search/51d526a53a45339dbff6f0501f0cdee0b6417766?sort=size&order=desc&page=1

edit: just noticed this post is old, whoopsie :)

They are about to double the rate lmit, so it should be a little better…

Yeah, that’s what I’m getting now, too. Hopefully they take the deadline into account for rate limiting… Still good to have warriors ready to retrieve, I guess.

Not sure. They don’t mention 4 being in beta or anything. Though they don’t list much advantage of using it over 3 either.

Still just read-only!

I can only theorize, but I doubt this specifically was the will of the malicious actors :)

Something definitely went wrong on their part, maybe even because of a DOS attack. Javascript-infested sites are anything but trivial to preserve anymore, but mixing it up like this is very unusual.

The handful of good ones aren’t why mobile gaming is worth more than PC gaming.

There is no IA community, so I thought you all might be interested.

The vast majority of mobile games are comprised of three mechanics:

• click X times to get something
• wait X amount to get something
• watch an ad to skip having to do the first two

and repeat.

Well said.

I’m just here to lay some hate on the proprietary apps: they bad.
