Myrient and AI
The AI industry frenzy undoubtedly contributed to the original Myrient archive’s soaring costs, ahead of its closure announcement. Perhaps ironically, if Myrient hadn’t been saved, retro fans may have looked to AI to generate copies of their favorite apps and games of yesteryear?
Holy fucknuggets Tom’s Hardware has gone way downhill.
Non Tom’s slopware original post:
I’m the head mod of r/savemyrient. today, we got some amazing news from the myrient community backup discord server.
Long time no see. We’ve been kicking major ass in the background getting downloads completed and validated. We can now announce that the Myrient mirror is now 100% COMPLETE!! Total size is 385TB Work is now continuing on generating torrents and getting them available. Website will be back soon, had to get that ready for the next stage and it was easier to just take it offline to do that. More news to come!
