Accounts, machines, people, phone numbers and policies on them are long out of date. For the story of the machines, see the [History of CARC computing](https://carc.unm.edu/docs/about/history/). Before it was CARC, the center ran websites under its earlier names: the High Performance Computing, Education & Research Center (**HPCERC**), the Albuquerque High Performance Computing Center (**AHPCC**) with its NCSA Alliance Linux supercluster site, and **HPC@UNM**. None of those sites survive on UNM servers. The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine captured many of their pages, and this section rebuilds them from those captures so they can be browsed again from CARC's own site. ## Snapshots Each snapshot is one era of one site.

Within a snapshot, each page is the capture nearest that snapshot's reference date, so neighbouring pages can be a few months apart. - **Unchanged content.** Each page's HTML is kept byte for byte as it was captured. Only addresses were changed, and a small yellow banner was added at the top naming the capture date with a link to the original Wayback copy. - **Links.** A link to a page that was saved goes to the local copy, in the same snapshot or the nearest other one. A link to a page that was not saved, or to any outside site, goes to the Wayback Machine's capture nearest the date of the page you are on. - **Images.** Images that were downloaded are served locally. Small icons the Internet Archive never saved (navigation tabs, bullets, arrows) were redrawn in the period style; each one is labelled as a modern recreation in its alt text and tooltip, and the page banner says so. Grey boxes mark other images that were never archived. The rest, and all stylesheets and scripts, load from the Wayback Machine, so some pages look plainer when the Internet Archive cannot be reached. - **Left out.** Personal home directories (`/~user`), intranet and timesheet pages, and SSH host-key listings. To rebuild after adding captures, run `python3 scripts/build_web_archive.py` with the staged captures in `.wayback/` (kept out of `.cache/`, which `zensical build --clean` empties).
