Should I just sit tight?

@eq Aha, it’s intermittently working now. 🤘

@mkb @eq Yeah they added throttling.
The trick is to open 500px.lua, and replace "local sleep_time = 0" with "local sleep_time = 1", if you're not using the warrior.
If using the warrior, you'll have to wait for the devs to push an update.

@val @eq @mkb What a dick move to do this when they know full well why people are doing it

@elomatreb @val @mkb welcome to capitalism

@elomatreb @eq @mkb It keeps happening. $company say they'll remove the contnt, ArchiveTeam downloads it, $company whines about archivists.
Last time it was Soundcloud

elomatreb @elomatreb@social.elomatreb.eu
@val @mkb @eq Oh yeah, Soundcloud will be a disaster if it goes down, so much culture that only exists on there :/

@mkb @eq Update: the warrior is fixed, but we need a lot more warriors now that download are highly rate-limited

mkb @mkb

@val @eq Redownload then? Or will it update the task?

val @val@oc.todon.fr

@mkb @eq The VM will auto-update it now

mkb @mkb

@val @eq Excellent.

mkb @mkb

@val @eq I can log into the VM. Just tell me where the file is.
