Call Green Day, the Eternal September is finally ending.
Oh, I am Idiot. In February I planned to make some meme around “Wake me up when September ends”, and only now you reminded me of that. Well, anyway…
Soon on Killed by Google.
As long as they keep all the historical stuff available.
Knowing Google, this is not a given at all.
Yeah, it needs to get into Internet Archive stat.
they ain’t got that much storage without skipping the good stuff.
AFAIK Google isn’t mirroring any of the binary stuff anyway though, are they? So how big is it? Surely with proper text compression it’s under 100TB. That’s 5 large hard drives at this point.
The binary stuff is all on the paid usenet servers. Those are still very popular for piracy and not going away anytime soon.
