Almost 3.5 million manuals scanned in.
Archive.org is the greatest treasure of our current times
I have been doing lots of deep dives and finding so much great stuff.
I’m a big fan of archive.org and I regularly look for manuals, but they don’t show up in common searches as a source, so knowing that now is really helpful. Thanks!
Their search isn’t great, I get better results using site:archive.org on Google
sounds like we could get venture capital funding for making a front end for this and mentioning AI.
Them implementing something open source like llama may be the one and only good use of machine learning.
I often do that too. Sometimes browsing by category is useful though.
I used it just last week to find the manual for my 20 year old VCR.
archive.org is great, but is it just me or is the site just super slow all the time?
Yes I used it for the manual for my VCR. I then used it to upload a copy I took of a BBC 20th anniversary night of Star Trek 🤣
I’ve been meaning to download the manuals of everything I own from here for my NAS. This website is a treasure.
