History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.
Does anybody have any recommendations for keyboards to use with the MBP when it's hooked up to a monitor? Is the Magic Keyboard any good? What keyboards do you use?
I really liked the manic keyboard but the space bar was really loud on the last one I had. At least, louder than the other keys.. is that normal?If Mac is all you're using, the Magic keyboard is perfect. The Magic keyboard and Magic mouse are what I use when I connect to my LG 32-inch display. The look and feel will be familiar to your MBP.
I’ll check out Keychron. A lot of people recommend them. Last mechanical was a filfo ninja. Ifs been a while.I customized a Keychron K8 with my favorite mechanical switches. I love how it turned out, the downside is that I can't go back to standard off-the-shelf stuff anymore.
As for the Magic Keyboard, it's a matter of taste and preference of course but I personally don't think it's that special. The only strong upside compared to a good 3rd party board is the TouchID, but I'm not willing to give up using a better switch with proper travel and keyfeel just to get that.
I like them, their products were a bit rough along the edges when they started but they have improved considerably since then. They have a broader lineup of layouts and styles than most makers, plus their barebones are a good entry point to make a semi-custom build without breaking the bank.I’ll check out Keychron.

I have a watch so the touch ID seems less appealing but I do remember liking my older magic keyboard. The only concern I remember having, and it wasn't really a big deal but the spacebar was so much louder than any of the other keys; it felt a lot different too.I've always stuck with Apple's keyboards over the years. I recently got the touchID with numeric keypad (for the eye watering price of ~$200 after tax).
For me it comes down to having the same feel as the built in MacBook keyboard. I write a lot on both so having them both have the same feel and layout (arrow keys notwithstanding) helps eliminate mental switching.
Plusses on the Magic keyboard -- touchID is very useful, unless you have a paired Watch which basically does the same function. Very good battery life. Compact. Comes with a fancy braided lightning to USB-C cable, which you cannot buy otherwise.
Cons - Price. No backlight on the keys.
I’ve never noticed the space bar being noisy. Perhaps on the older models that used the AA batteries (honestly can’t remember) but not the most recent ones.I have a watch so the touch ID seems less appealing but I do remember liking my older magic keyboard.

Probably not a big deal and just due to the size but do you notice anything on your apple keyboards?
This. There is nothing else as far as I’m concerned. It’s like the Apple keyboard on steroids with backlit keys. I’m honestly very impressed the construction of it. I also like the MX anywhere mouse. The customizable scroll is very nice.Logitech MX Keys, great choice especially if you have more than 1 device, it can swap between 3 with a push of a button. I use it with my MBP, PC and iPad.

I'm using the Nuphy Air75. I like it so much that I bought a second one. The layout is very similar to a mac/magic keyboard layout, with a few notable exceptions (FN key, right shift/arrow keys, no touch ID), but it's close enough that it's a pretty easy transition. It can connect via bluetooth, usb receiver, or wire and supports switching between 4 devices. Has Win/Mac modes (and comes with Win/Mac specific key caps). It's a mechanical keyboard, but is low profile and shorter travel than a typical mechanical keyboard, so it's not as drastic a transition from a laptop keyboard. I have both the red and the brown switches and really like the browns.
