Hope for geekhack recovery - Warrick

486 · 05 Jul 2012, 00:21

I just found yesterday a program called warrick that can recovery lost websites that had no backups using cached and archived pages. This is perfect for GH. However the servers are full and cannot do online requests but can do have a download for Unix/ Linux but none for Mac or Windows. So maybe someone that has Linux could try this out.

Can you recover more webwit?

I have various pictures backed up. Please keep your credit card ready for access.

IIRC you rotated two others into the Geekhack Mechanical Keyboard Guide.

If someone else doesn't get a chance to I can give it a shot later tonight most likely. I can either start up a new VM instance of Linux or just spin up a new server at Rackspace.

If it runs on Unix it should be able to work on OS X.

ww, always wanted to ask you: where is the rest of the series!?

Well, there's this.

Wait, that's wrong, that's just a picture of me relaxing.

the google cache and wayback machine were actually the first places we went looking for the lost attachments. they have not been indexing the attachments, though, so i'm afraid we're probably SOL, but happy to give this a try to see what it can pull up.

I've got thousands of pics all logically organised and triple backed up.

$5 a pic mkawa. Leave the watermark please.

More for the nudes.
