One game I do not even know the title of. My brother used to play it when I was 6 years old. I remember the game being monochrome, not sure about the crt itself. But it was a kind of XCOM if I’d have to describe it, about some crew that lands on an underwater planet. It’s still my white whale coz I still have not found even the name . I tried chatgpting suggestions recently to no avail.
Our monitor at the time must have been monochrome then, damn!! The ship with the units inside def makes me think this is the one. Playing it soon!! Thanks so much!
I’ve been looking for the 3rd season of the Andy Milonakis Show for forever, I know it is probably hot garbage…but I love hot garbage. I also used to troll the internet for old CKY movies…but I found most of them, even the coveted “Cattlebag” movie by Brandon Dicamillo…it is all so horrible though…but meh…when one lives in a trash world, one gets a taste for the finest trash…
Certainly a product of their time! I remember he was so popular, around the time of Waiting. Really interesting listening to the Jackass guys talk about that era and all they’ve gone through since.
Yeah, I love hearing the Jackass crew talk, a lot of them really grew up and became really insightful. Steve-O is a prime example, it does my heart good to see him doing well and living clean.
Iptorrents has all 3 seasons in a bundle. 5 gigs 47 episodes. It is private though so would need an invite to get to it or if you are super interested I could download it and find a way to send it to you.
I see it on a private tracker (720p and 1080p variants) as well as Usenet. If English is fine I can grab it and put it up on Mega for you. I also see German.
that’s amazing. Thank you! 2) I’m using Wefwef and PMs seem to be a bit broken and I couldn’t see what I was typing, so please excuse my nonsensical garbled attempts at replying there 😁
I’m also using Wefwef and had the same problem when I sent the link to someone else. I used Sync for Reddit before coming to Lemmy so I can’t wait for Sync for Lemmy to launch! Glad you got the link and hopefully once you watch it the wait would have been worth it!
Digimon World 2003. I never owned a PlayStation (was a Nintendo-only fanboy for years until I bought a PS2 in the mid-00s a year before the Xbox 360 was announced) and tried to run an emulator of it for over a decade before it was fully supported. I also had trouble because I found out the only English version that didn’t have that stupid “once you start fighting the final boss, you can’t explore the game world anymore” thing they used to do in JRPGs was the European version. Now I can actually play it, even using gameshark codes, easily… if I could only find the time to play it!
Fun School 6: Futureland. Its a shitty edutainment game from the 90s that I played non-stop for like a year, that I want to get my hands on for nostalgia purposes. As far as I can tell its not available (online or physical media) anywhere. I finally found a copy for sale a few years ago, but it turned out to be a mislabelled copy of fun school 6: fairyland.
I will keep searching, eventually a copy will show up somewhere!
Holy shit… for yearsarchive.org only had fairyland and I’d given up on this one ever appearing. Thanks so so much for spotting this. MY QUEST IS OVER. Time to see just how crap it is :D
It’s only three episodes and no seeds for the Thirtysomething. I had Thirtysomething from a private tracker that someone downloaded for me. The drive they were on died before I remembered to make sure they were elsewhere and not just one drive. Thanks though.
There used to be this one swiss cooking show for kids called „Cocolino“ with a blue cat that had a fried egg as an eyepatch. Been trying to find it online every once in a while, never with any success.
I don’t think so (at least I haven’t found any). Even though Switzerland is pretty much a safe haven, there probably just aren‘t enough pirates there for some sort of community to start existing. Or it’s just way too obscure.
Idk if I have the full thing or not, but my dad taped (audio cassette, no video) at least some of it, and I can digitize those four tapes if you’re interested.
Edit: After finding the tapes and talking to my dad, seems he taped all this off the radio. Sounds fucking great tbh lol. I unfortunately do not have all of it though, it goes straight from summer of '69 into some U2 and seems to jump around from there, so it can’t be.
My dad was saying the same, said his parents even watched some lol.
The “Live Aid - FULL CONCERT - July 13th 1985” playlist by PyroTheFox on youtube doesn’t cut it? I haven’t watched it myself so idk if it really is as full as it claims.
Oh thats nice. I think this will do for now.
I’d love to get the full recording at some point with moderators talking and ads and all that for maximum nostalgia though 😄
Insomniac with Dave Atell. I loved that show on Comedy Central, but it was never put on dvd that I could find. I’ve never found a good torrent of it either.
And now I must go searching! I only had known of the “insomniacs tour” special on comedy central with Dave attel, Dane cook, and a few other comedians who escape me now but completely forgot about the actual show.
Wish me luck hopefully I will have good news to share!
Lol I know the feeling, I’m shit with names. I had to google the spelling myself for the joke haha, I always put an “h” in there. RIP for sure, he was one of the best, gone way too young.
Where’s a reliable place for finding stand up? Or even just stand up discoveryl? I struggle to find several specials from the pre Netflix era or and for new stuff I’ve only found 800 lb gorilla or I’m ripping from YouTube.
Honestly, I’d try slsk (through the program nicotine+ ideally). There’s shit up there that I’m straight up surprised to find quite often, just make sure to put like 1,000 files (can be almost anything, fr) in your share folder before you begin downloading or the bots will get ya, and hope that the only copy isn’t from some cocksucker that [Private]s all his files for trades like a true scumbag (also, if you see those people, ban them from your files. However If they just mark [Private] and don’t specify trades, they may just add you if you PM them and are sharing stuff yourself, those guys are ok). I also put my downloads folder in my share folder to just automatically re-share everything I get until I need to clear space (unless I choose not to reshare a file and I save it somewhere else of course). You can also set a wishlist in case someone with a file matching your description comes online at a later date if you can’t find it right then.
If you’re looking for a few specific ones I can check a couple to see if they’re up there real quick, no problem.
Wow haven’t heard of nicotine+ or slsk before. Is that P2P ala soulseek? I’ll definitely have to check it out.
Will probably happen later rather than sooner, ever since RARBG peaced out I’ve been slowly working on installing the arrs for my server and importing my libraries. And that is already taking a significant amount of my free time lol.
There used to be some opendirectory posts that had some weirdly unsecured files if complete stand ups. You’d have to chip them down for tracks and metadata but it was a fair amount of 80s - 90s albums.
Yeah it’s not them, trust me. There are 3 versions of the Film, Return of Godzilla (Japanese and dubbed International) and Godzilla 1895 (US edited, new scenes with westerners and it’s shorter). Godzilla 1985 was released on VHS twice and that was it. No DVD, No Bluray. If a torrent site has it, it’s either RMR edits or labeled wrong
RMR/Red Menace Reconstructions who’s been working on VHS or old TV copies and quietly updating them as he gets better stuff to work from i guess. They are pretty good, but it’s just not the same.

Are you sure it’s not XCOM terror of the deep?

Very welcome! You saying it was XCOMesque that i was like “it’s gotta be that!” Glad to be of some help!
Nice work!
Thank you!
Was hoping we could help some people! Maybe I’ll do a monthly since the community is still small here on Lemmy
Beautiful idea! I’d be down!
Please @cuchilloc, let us know if this is it!
I think it is !
I love a happy ending 🥲
This of a perfect Tip of My… type of question. Maybe we start an instance here! Pride of XCOM 2 I’m not too familiar with other franchises. What year?
Looks like we’ve cracked it. Terrors of the deep ftw!

Season 3 is on Archive. It’s 480 but looks like the whole show is there
¿Verdad? That is what is up…
As for the quality, I would expect nothing more or less from an MTV2 show. Potato is the only way to experience MTV2 in 2023…

Cottage Country (2013). Meant to be similar to Tucker and Dale Vs Evil and I just can’t find a torrent anywhere!
Thanks looks good downloading it now.
If you actually find a working link do share!
I see it on a private tracker (720p and 1080p variants) as well as Usenet. If English is fine I can grab it and put it up on Mega for you. I also see German.
That’d be brilliant, thanks!
DM sent!

I’d appreciate a DM also if you don’t want to share in the post! Awesome find
Sorry for the multiple DMs. My client stalled and didn’t show my initial message.

Hi-Res scans of paintings and photographs. Like starry night from van gogh:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ea/Van_Gogh_-_Starry_Night_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg
Would love a library of photos from Feininger or Salgado, paintings etc.
I would love a private tracker for art digitalizations.
This is a neat idea I hadn’t thought of.
Many museums are now offering hi res versions of many of their collections. Hopefully the collections or pieces you’re after are in the works

That’s so awesome you could still find it. Priorities!
Whatever Happened to Harold Smith? Had to buy it in the end 😓
Glad you could still find it! I’ve been looking for hardly available broadcast media. Popular enough shows but before digital archiving :(

Nice pull!
Complete tv series Thirtysomething. Complete tv series of HBO taxi cab confessions …
PBay has a torrent of Taxicab. Also S3 and S4 of Thirtysomething
It’s only three episodes and no seeds for the Thirtysomething. I had Thirtysomething from a private tracker that someone downloaded for me. The drive they were on died before I remembered to make sure they were elsewhere and not just one drive. Thanks though.
There used to be this one swiss cooking show for kids called „Cocolino“ with a blue cat that had a fried egg as an eyepatch. Been trying to find it online every once in a while, never with any success.
That sounds awesome! Is there a large repository for Swiss media?
I don’t think so (at least I haven’t found any). Even though Switzerland is pretty much a safe haven, there probably just aren‘t enough pirates there for some sort of community to start existing. Or it’s just way too obscure.
Now there are two of us.
Hopefully plans work out I’ll visit soon!
Anyone know where to find the Calm meditation app audio files?
Found this but possible solution is for Android.

Interesting. Maybe I can do something like this with the iOS app…
A full recording of “Live Aid” Form 85
Idk if I have the full thing or not, but my dad taped (audio cassette, no video) at least some of it, and I can digitize those four tapes if you’re interested.
Edit: After finding the tapes and talking to my dad, seems he taped all this off the radio. Sounds fucking great tbh lol. I unfortunately do not have all of it though, it goes straight from summer of '69 into some U2 and seems to jump around from there, so it can’t be.
Thanks for getting back! Unfortunately, I’m looking for video mainly, because that’s how my mum remembers watching the entire thing on her first TV.
My dad was saying the same, said his parents even watched some lol.

There’s some results in the Bay. Full box set. Not sure about a continuous broadcast though.

Wish me luck hopefully I will have good news to share!
I posted above but since you likely won’t be back until your search is complete I’ll reply to you too.
Insomniac is all up on slsk, (and put some respek on Greg Giraldo’s name! Lol)
GAH I FUCKING KNEW IIIT! his face was plastered in the center of my mind but i couldnt remeber his name for the life of meeee! RIP 😭
Lol I know the feeling, I’m shit with names. I had to google the spelling myself for the joke haha, I always put an “h” in there. RIP for sure, he was one of the best, gone way too young.
Completely off topic but fuck it shoot your shot.

Similar vein, “Dave’s Old Porn”. I’ve found seeds for a few episodes, but never have tracked down the full set.
Bluray quality Godzilla 1985, there’s a handful of kaiju movies i need. But they never got released on bluray.
I’m aware of the RMR versions and i have them.
2 came up on 1337. Yify rip
Yeah it’s not them, trust me. There are 3 versions of the Film, Return of Godzilla (Japanese and dubbed International) and Godzilla 1895 (US edited, new scenes with westerners and it’s shorter).
