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.

@sparseMatrix i'm going to have to look more closely at it to know exactly how, but in general, I keep a hard drive with anything I would find useful were society to crumble. Basically, I make sure that all of the data is runnable on whatever computer system I'm currently using without any outside help from the internet. (and I obviously keep it backed up the proper way.)

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.

@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.

@sparseMatrix I would actually love to find a good way of building a little local internet for this purpose. Like, I could grab a whole site, define what I call it, use a browser to access it, etc., all on local host. Now that I'm saying this, surely it's already out there. I'm gonna look into it this weekend!

Take a look at “internet in a box” - it might be what you want already, depending on the sites. :-)

@sparseMatrix @jonobie@social.coop @Jonobie@defcon.social for anyone interested here are a couple of other tools I found that claim to help you to create local working copies of any website.

archivebox.io

httrack.com

@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…
