Hi,
Once a while the Alexandrian library burns
down to ground. Something similar happens
in the world wide web, in a more
organic form which has similarty with
distributed garbage collection, but has
an economic twist. Since hosting still
costs money, the garbage collection sweeps
away stuff that isn't valuable. Every
product has a life cycle. If a product
has reached and of life phase, its unlikely
that much information about a product will
survive in a living manner. Only accidental
fossils will survive. For example recently
the Z80 was discontinued:
n April 15, 2024, Zilog announced the
discontinuation of the Z80 processor, with
orders being accepted until June 14, 2024.

Bye

you are completely brainwashed like
many fanatic people on this planet,
who don't understand that a wise man
has to accept that nothing is constant.
Even the new oppenheimer makes the same
fallacy here, when he halucinates that
there is only one internet:

You are just a complete nuthead. And Ilya
Sutskever is not the new oppenheimer,
he is porobably a complete moron.

You can check out your newserver here:
https://www.newsgroupreviews.com/
For example it says for http://www.eternal-september.org/
Retention is currently 2 years for de.*,
160 days for the Big 8, 130 days for alt.*
and 90 days for other hierarchies.
So Big 8 is only 160 days.

Nope, it lands nowhere and gets deleted after
a while. This is called the retention time.
Different servers will have different
retention times for the same newsgroup;
some may keep posts for as little as one
or two weeks, others may hold them for many years.

Do you find any of your posts from 12
years ago on an ordinary news server?

Yeah, every USENET post sort of lands right in
the Library of Congress, don't you know.
Sure, some modern services have 20+ years text retention,
if you were following news.admin when Google Groups
cut itself loose from usenet after turning into a
vandalistic spam-hive that it could obviously mitigate,
about "Archive All Text Usenet", some fellow furthermore
posted a feed of like all of text usenet and like
including the DejaNews CD's contents and these, yeah.
It's not even like 4 terabytes. Less than a 1000 movies, say.
What are you a clown? I'm not buying your spam.
That's merely "site policy", don't you know that
in the peerage or compeerage or leechage of usenet
peers, that, any one sets their own site policy?
Various commercial peers for example tout their
decades, at least, of retention, and various
archives have been around since "the DejaNews CDs",
and various current feeds exist of "all text usenet".
Furthermore that "eternal-september" is considered
just a charlatan's ruse of a sort since other "free
humanitarian interest" usenet peers are hard to find.
It's just some spooks.
Try reading the RFC's and charters about USENET,
maybe you'll learn a little bit more that it's
been around since before the World Wide Web.
Yeah I'm thinking about connecting text usenet
to these new "Mastodon" or "Bluesky" feeds,
should be pretty simple.
I suggest you quit your insolent cretinry.
