Hold up, does someone know how to save an entire site? I would really like to get the 5e wikidot archived in case Hasbro or whoever wants to shut it down for good.
Honestly it’s not the information so much as the way it’s organized that I’d like to save. It is the best resource for putting together characters, currently.
It won’t save everything, but if a script follows every link recursively, most content should be reached that way. That’s kind of what Google does but for one site instead of the internet.
If there is a search function try very simple queries.
The alternative of brute forcing links would be unfeasible, even if you are not rate limited by the site, due to the exponential complexity.
If you want to do something please look into api/scraping etikette like exponential back off.
Probably a browser extension these days. I had one back in the late 90’s or early 2000’s that would simply download the page you were on, as well as every page, image, audio file, etc. on every recursive link on that page.
This was back when most websites had a table of contents link somewhere, though. There are plenty of sites now that don’t link to every page contained on the domain and are only accessible if you manually enter the URL or use dynamically created pages that only exist upon request.
I liked Breakfast at Tiffany’s as a kid and I remember being 10 or 11 and realizing Mr. Yunioshi was fucked up. And then a few years later, realizing Holly Golightly is a prostitute involved with the mafia.
Parenting seems hard. I think my mom was like, “Whatever. An old Audrey Hepburn movie. It’s probably like My Fair Lady.” Nope!
I’ve never seen it because I was “not like the other girls” as a kid, but holy shit. I’ve seen clips of the yellow face, but I’ve never heard anything about prostitution or the mafia. I had several friends who got really into it in middle and high school, including one whose Facebook last name she changed to golightly, so I don’t think your mom was alone in that thinking.
Now I kind of want to watch it with adult eyes, is it worth it?
It’s the meticulous savers you should worry about. The savers smart enough to automate what they save, and fastidious enough to know every sector of what they’ve saved. Those savers may/may not save the whole galaxy.
I save lots of 2000s kid’s shows, for when my future kids grow up. No telling when they’ll become lost media. I use filebot to automatically rename the files to TVDB standards, and so far I’ve collected 8tb. Do I have a problem?
