Repairing shows where external files have been lost

  • The further back in time we go with these repairs, the more challenging they tend to become because of the variations in the way shows were put together. It has been difficult to process more than five a day, and there have been a few breaks along the way!

  • The current state of the project is that it has been completed:

    +------------+------------+--------------+------------------+
    |    date    | repairable | repair_count | unrepaired_count |
    +------------+------------+--------------+------------------+
    | 2024-10-03 | 352        | 352          | 0                |
    +------------+------------+--------------+------------------+
  • All of the processed shows have access to their transcripts, which are held on archive.org. However, there remains the need to make transcripts available to the older shows which have no external files.

Show notes for the HPR New Years Eve Show 2023-24

Going by the credits on the previous year's notes, I think the notes this time round were prepared by Sgoti and hplovecraft. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks to all involved for their efforts in making the New Years Eve Show a reality.

best price?

$800 dollars for a banana pi that is a total scam. Here's a link to aliexpress 28 euros new bpi m1. The M1 plus and some orange pi's are supported by Slackware, as well as AARCH64 on the rockpro64. I'll never buy from India, so thanks for that tip.
