The video archive on the Comedy Central website hosted footage from every episode of The Daily Show pxj เข้าสู่ระบบ since 1999, clips from all 11 seasons of The Colbert Report, bits from Key & Peele, South Park, and Workaholics, and more. Yesterday, Paramount removed the video archive and its 25 years of footage from the site, where a popup now tells you "most Comedy Central series are no longer available," but "you can sign up for Paramount+ to watch many seasons of Comedy Central shows."

While we can assume some of that archive will make the transfer to Paramount+—presumably whichever shows seem most profitable to Paramount Global's trio of CEOs, who recently declared a cost-cutting campaign to address the corporation's failing finances (via )—the erasure continues what's been a dire month for media preservation. Earlier this week, Paramount and culled its two decades of news coverage, as reported by Variety. Last week, the Internet Archive , following a lawsuit from major book publishers.

These losses of media stores evoke the same long-held concerns that motivate proponents of game preservation—namely, that once access to a piece of media is lost, that media too often becomes impossible to recover. In addition to its library of digitized books, the Internet Archive hosts , many of which would otherwise be in danger winner55 ทางเข้า สล็อต of being lost forever to outdated tech standards or failing hardware and storage media.

Once digital media ages out of immediate relevance, it requires deliberate effort to ensure it isn't lost. Unless it'll deliver shareholder profits, that effort isn't one we can safely expect corporate media stewards to invest in. Out-of-print games languish waiting for remasters that may never come; live-service, digital-only games evaporate into the aether once the plug is pulled ( RIP, I miss you every day). Meanwhile, as The Verge reported in 2023, companies like Warner Bros. Discovery are so profit margin-poisoned that they're willing to , leaving anyone who worked on the production with nothing to show for it and no way to access what they'd made.

I'd like to trust in the internet as a distributed bastion of human knowledge, but l86.com สล็อต frankly, the signs aren't reassuring about what we stand to lose without supporting archival efforts. According to a , 38% of webpages that were accessible in 2013 are gone in 2024, 54% of Wikipedia articles cite at least one website that no longer exists, and more than 20% of news and government web pages have broken links to nowhere. Chin up, though. Some of that stuff will probably end up on Paramount+ eventually.
