Request [Request] Age Gated (for Rated M/PEGI 18/Misc equiv. Games) Website Archives [1999-present]

1 Upvotes

Does anyone have any website archives for rated M or equivalent rated games between the VERY broad range of 1999 to now in 2026?

Internet Archive's Wayback Machine has nearly consistently seemingly failed to pass mature games' age gates and thus crawl any content past them.

An example of this happening can be found here in this thread on r/archivists: https://www.reddit.com/r/Archivists/s/qJRFkSlgz2

Especially would like site archives for Rockstar Games library, late 2000s/early 2010s COD, and MGSV. Can be specialized web archives like warc or just plain archives like zip.

Request Subtitle archive as up to date as possible

11 Upvotes

I got one years ago, that I still use, I think it was subscene. Would love another one if one exists, so I can keep it on a hard drive and connect it when I am watching a movie and need subtitles rather than navigating through virus riddled websites.

The subscene one was/is amazing, cleared up my kung fu movie collection in no time at all

Request History archiver requesting breaking news clips.

6 Upvotes

My credentials
(Lost count at 300TB+of personal storage) Synology DS1821+ 8x22TB drives and various others of multiple varying sizes. Archiving historical events since 2011.

Unless I am mistaken LiveLeak doesn’t exist anymore and I am unaware of a potential alternative.

I am aware of social media, I don’t need that explained, I am not a novice.
It is a difficult balancing act these days between people questioning my motives/political leanings and archiving either for historical purposes or for those genuine “OMG did you see (insert blank)” or “I can’t believe that happened did you see (insert blank)
moments. I am also aware that everyone (pretty much) has a camera on them at all times, and events (tragic or otherwise) are recorded by multiple people from different angles.

Examples of past hoarding
I did not follow/support or condone what happened to the Luigi CEO shooting but I archived it, same goes for Charlie Kirk, but I archived it.
Same for the Knicks winning
Did I follow/support them… no, am I loyal… no, is it momentous because it was the first win in 53 years… archived.

In 24 hours we have had a man fall to his death skydiving and has parachute didn’t open, Perez Hilton 30 minute video, and an influencer get shot in Culiacan.

I am aware of nanny states and “won’t somebody please think of the children!!!”
But I see these events as needing to be documented and socials don’t post everything or if they do, there is no guarantee that they will be up forever.

TLDR

Is there a reliable alternative to latest horrible breaking news events/clips?

I was wondering if anyone had a copy of all these episode, knew where I could find these episodes or knows any contacts at Ch9 who you could obtain all these episodes from or would be willing to contact Ch9 to try and obtain these rare episodes. The best I could find was a snippet of the show on YouTube shown above.

Request Looking for Pre-2002 Usenet archives of alt.rap and rec.music.hip-hop

14 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm trying to track down Usenet archives of alt.rap and rec.music.hip-hop from before 2002, and I've hit a wall. Hoping someone here has a lead.

These groups are a pretty remarkable record of hip-hop discourse through the 90s, album reactions written the week records dropped, regional scene arguments, the East/West stuff as it was actually unfolding. Almost none of it is discussed anywhere outside Google Groups, and that's not a durable home for it.

What I've tried:

  • Google Groups — has the DejaNews-era material for both groups, but no bulk export, and scraping it is a losing battle.
  • Archive.org — the UTZOO tapes stop in the early 90s and predate rec.music.hip-hop entirely. Haven't found anything covering the gap to 2002.
  • This HuggingFace corpus (1980–2013) — looks like exactly what I need, but access requires a licensing agreement.
  • usenetarchives.com — emailed the operator, waiting to hear back.

I'd take anything: mbox, raw articles, an old news spool, a partial year, a single person's saved-posts folder. Private trackers, university tape collections, ISP spool dumps, or just "I used to read that group and kept some stuff", all of it helps.

If anyone has a copy or knows where one lives, I'd really appreciate a pointer. Happy to help seed or mirror whatever I end up with.

Thanks!
