COLLECTED BY

Organization: Archive Team

BERJAYA

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.

The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.

This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.

Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.

The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

Collection: ArchiveBot: The Archive Team Crowdsourced Crawler

ArchiveBot is an IRC bot designed to automate the archival of smaller websites (e.g. up to a few hundred thousand URLs). You give it a URL to start at, and it grabs all content under that URL, records it in a WARC, and then uploads that WARC to ArchiveTeam servers for eventual injection into the Internet Archive (or other archive sites).

To use ArchiveBot, drop by #archivebot on EFNet. To interact with ArchiveBot, you issue commands by typing it into the channel. Note you will need channel operator permissions in order to issue archiving jobs. The dashboard shows the sites being downloaded currently.

There is a dashboard running for the archivebot process at http://www.archivebot.com.

ArchiveBot's source code can be found at https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/ArchiveBot.

I have experienced this too. Thought I'd post here for anyone else interested.

TLDR; they downgraded the audio circuitry within this 6th 'generation', to save money. you have the original or 2nd revision 6th generation, which can only use 2.0.4. they did a ghost release of a inter-generational downgrade which has inferior hardware, and is able to run 2.0.5. because the actual hardware is different, the software is not compatible. i believe this change happened sometime between 2011 and 2013. you are lucky as you have a good ipod and 2.0.5 will offer you nothing.

=====

I recently bought a new iPod to replace my old faulty one. I noticed within 20 seconds of music that this new iPod had inferior sound (lacking soundstage, detail and tonal balance). I've given it several days and tried to like it, but the new sound has more trade offs than gains. It sounds bad.

To investigate why it didn't sound right, I looked around. It had the same box, appeareance, model number, part number, everything. The only difference - the serial number showed my old one was made in 2011 while this new one was made in 2013 - and the software on my old one would only update to 2.0.4 while the new one would go to 2.0.5. The two softwares are incompatible - because the two hardwares are different.

David, my limited u/standing of this (I don't even HAVE a Classic!) is that, with 2.0.5, there's an option to disable an EU volume limit which, I also u/stand, isn't available on Classics that can't take 2.0.5.

Could it be that yours still has the limit enabled?
