This is the most punk thing I've ever heard of. This guy got his physics phd then proceeded to use it to create open source plans for everything you need to start a civilization.
Definitely going in my digital apocalypse kit (wait, you don't have one?!), and this guy is now one of my heroes.

in reply to Alison Wilder • • •Yeah I can use curl/wget with the best of 'em.
I thought perhaps you had something like kiwix, but not wikipedia specific, or perhaps the project supplied some method....after all, the first thing you need to rebuild/reboot civilization is the plans, and some way to read them.

in reply to sparseMatrix • • •@sparseMatrix I do use kiwix for Wikipedia. I need to investigate what else it will do!
Edit for clarity: I'm mostly using formats like PDF and EPUB for future accessibility. And, of course, the mighty mighty txt file.

in reply to Alison Wilder • • •Take a look at “internet in a box” - it might be what you want already, depending on the sites.

in reply to Alison Wilder • •@Alison Wilder @sparseMatrix kiwix does have support for other websites, including github.com/openzim/zimit / zimit.kiwix.org/#/ to scrape generic websites (with some limits)
I don't see opensourceecology on library.kiwix.org/ , but the license looks compatible, and there is always github.com/openzim/zim-request…
