Perseving Mans Knowledge Though WW3

For some reason everytime I use HTTrack it takes ages then ends with errors and I'm never sure why. wget is so faster. There are other tools though.

duck, and cover

Project gutenberg has an iso the created with all the classics in their library.

You could make lots of copies and bury them in time capsules.

We need to preserve all our knowledge of the ancient Egyptians too.

I would go with clay tablets, we have allegedly 5000 years old clay tablets in great quality even today. Clay is cheap and practically everywhere. You can't go wrong with clay tablets.

This. Earthen and stone objects are just about the only things which will survive a thousand years without elaborate containment and sealing techniques which require the usage of, you guessed it, earth or stone. Once you're to the point where you don't have to worry about the object carrying your message or information biologically decomposing or being re-purposed by local fauna, then you have to move onto figuring out a place to put it where it won't be eroded by rains, washed out to sea by floods, or buried under sedimentation or slowly shifting sands over time. There's a reason why the majority of intact stoneworks and artifacts we find are in arid high altitude regions, or barely covered by sand in desert areas, and it's not because those are the only two places where people were living and creating things thousands of years ago.

Making shit last multiple generations is very hard. Especially when you want it to last hundreds of generations, not just a few. Especially when you don't have full control of the location or conditions where you'll have to convey that information. Embed related. If the timestamp doesn't work, it's around the 23 minute mark.

Hint: An unplugged microwave is a suitable cage.

Read A Canticle for Lebowitz.

I believe you can download all of Wikipedia onto your own computer. Just the text. It's not even that big of a file, about the size of a vidya gaem.

Now that's not all of mankind's knowledge and Wikipedia is highly subverted when it comes to political text but it is one easy step that would give you a lot of information with very little effort.

I have a book I'm specifically writing for my own edification and for others after I'm gone I suppose to preserve thoughts and particulars on subjects I find useful.

I'm sure that self archival of proper research data and essays should also be helpful, but ultimately you have to do what you're most comfortable/skilled at.

That's really all we can do, preserve knowledge in various forms, including physical media and of course engage with others, help them and encourage them to archive for themselves.

Have faith in the unknown and proceed with courage.

All I know is that some turbonerd out there better be preserving anime.

A good way to preserve knowledge would be to etch quartz or clear Sapphire plates with loads of images and whole books and stack them many layers deep i huge multi layer drums and then leave then in interesting/hidin locations to be found at a later date

This.

Quartz structure can hold and maintain lodesadata.

If I die to radiation poisoning or starvation, I'm pretty sure that my HDD full of reddit's porn softcore, no sheboons, no fat or curvy women, video games and ebooks that I never read will be worth a lot of ammo/fuel after the nukes hit.

Requesting more infos on EMPs, that's an interesting topic so I have a few questions.
How large is the radius of a blast ? Is it regional or earth-size ? What kind of damage does it makes ? What kind of weapon launches EMPs ? ICBM, SAM ?
So you mean that in the event of an EMP pulse, every electronic devices plugged in could do what ? Explosions, High-voltage currents that could spark fires, what else ?
And last question, How long does it lasts ? Is it kinda like a nuclear winter or just a blast and then nothing ?

Only if it's a Samsung™ Galaxy S7 Edge©

If it's hotwheels' chair and has a battery larger than the midget it carries, yes, otherwise it does fucking nothing significant. It's not going to turn every capacitor in a computer into a bomb you doofus.

google
Not much compared to the massive amounts of radiation and heat increases from the nuke that caused said EMP.

there's a shit ton of information on phones, tablets, and e-readers. I've got a gigantic library not cloud-based.

These ARM devices use so little power there's no reason to think they'd be inoperable if you had a stream, wind, sunlight, or some poor gimp riding a bicycle generator.

Nuclear War Survival Skills, it is a book

Backup Gondolas pls

But they'll then be blood pepes lad, having profiteered from war.

Remember, 8ch is a board of peace.

This is surprisingly more important then you think. If you ask the question how knowledge survives through civilizational collapse, there is one way it does: monastic orders.

This video explains it well.

For something less than the total destruction of society you could create a time capsule, they generally have been respected during wartime. A mechanical hard drive in a sealed container would last at least 150 years. If you have the space you could even include a basic computer to read it. Inside you could include a note for whoever finds it to replace the knowledge inside their equivalent and reseal it. The container should be shielded against emp, kinetic shock, and have the air sucked out.

Avoid the situation of WW3
If you are wondering why white-genocide is happening and why miscegenation is being pushed so much in the Western world **by ((( you know who ))) to turn the whole world into obedient goyem?

This video explains it well. Replace these words when watching this video:
- Paranoids = Russians
- Solonoids = USA
- Planet Destroyers = Weapons of you know what

Listen to A Canticle for Lebowitz.

If you don't have time, download a copy from youtube and listen to it on your way to work or when you are cooking or something. You have no excuses anymore.

Also, saving audiobooks (from youtube or public library) to accompany your archives would be immeasurably valuable b/c first few generations probably won't be able to read.

Good ideas, lots of material to study. Quality posts, user.

this

I have been given a great deal of thought to this as well and I really like this idea which I got from reading this book:

Isaac Asimov - Foundation

They talk about building a Galactic Encyclopedia to track all accumulated human knowledge and then have it available to spread and decrease the time for rebuilding civilization.

Also here is a link to the audiobook on youtube.

That's not a bad thing, you know.

To save just the pictures I use this.

#!/bin/bash
wget -nd -H -r -l 1 -A jpg,jpeg,bmp,gif,png,mp4,webm -e robots=off $1

If you are a mega fag and can't even nano into /bin/ and chmod +x chan.sh you can just.

wget -nd -H -r -l 1 -A jpg,jpeg,bmp,gif,png,mp4,webm -e robots=off 8ch.net/pol/res/8090878.html

Also when I run that I always get thumbnails how can I stop it from grabbing them?

>wget -mk -w 1 -e robots=off -np example.com/dir/
Thanks user! You actually gave me an interesting idea!

Wouldn't it be cool if anons had a ```master list``` of websites and urls where anons can iteratively run through the urls and ```wget```all the stuff on their computers. When ww3 start getting hot, anons download gigs of data on a click of a button to be ready to arrive locally.

Great idea! But I am gonna' need proof this can be done and it's as small as you claim it is. Wouldn't wikipedia ban your ip for thinking you are doing abusive behaviour?

How far have you read into the foundation series.

Myself I've taken a break from the last book before the prequal and I'll say the first three are the only ones worth reading.

Something happened to Asimov in the break between the 3rd and 4th book that just lost himself at least 10 IQ points honestly it's like it's from two diffrent authors.

We might have to develop a caste of autists.

In the future QT3.14s are kidnapped to mate with spergs in the temple of Minerva.

Spoilers for Foundation series don't look if you're reading

The whole point of setting up a glactic encyclopedia in bumfuck nowhere was to segregate all the inteligent people away from the normies who tore themselves apart and reform the empire in the physical sense. Not going to spoil the rest but it get's pretty spooky as far as memetics are concerned

You are right user, the last books are complete shit. It turns into Lost in Space sort of story. The first few are absolute gems, and then they sort of go bad. The reason is actually interesting. Take a look at the publish dates:

The Complete Robot (1982) and/or I, Robot (1950)
Caves of Steel (1954)
The Naked Sun (1957)
The Robots of Dawn (1983)
Robots and Empire (1985)
The Currents of Space (1952)
The Stars, Like Dust (1951)
Pebble in the Sky (1950)
Prelude to Foundation (1988)
Forward the Foundation (1993)
Foundation (1951)
Foundation and Empire (1952)
Second Foundation (1953)
Foundation's Edge (1982)
Foundation and Earth (1986)

Notice the dates? Basically from my understanding, is when he wrote the originals, he didn't make too much money and some ((( intellectual property troll ))) kept rights to his work so he couldn't continue writing the series. Then after like 30 years, ((( Issac Asimov ))) got permission to continue the series which he did. But 30 years is enough to change a man so the nature of the story would soon follow.

Here's what I've read if any user is interested d/l them from youtube and listing to them in their car/ making food/ waking outside/etc:

Asimov suffered from what all writers do when they revisit a series they "ended" long ago but were pushed to write more by their fans.

He used up his good material in the original Trilogy and was kinda forced to work at more- so of course it sucked. No more predictable Seldon Crises or dealing with the Mule. The cat's out of the bag on the Second Foundation so…

It's less interesting/fun to read about things when all the mystery has been revealed. Granted, I only read the Trilogy because I was warned away from the sequels and prequels. That and my experience with Dune has taught me to avoid sequels and prequels, especially so long after the original publication or by other authors.

Ah that's a Gem you mentioned there user. I think I might re-read (aka listen to audiobook) in the near future.

To some extent a microwave oven is a suitable cage. I'm not sure that all models, or even most models, contain a cage around the whole box. Microwaves are good at bouncing off flat metal, hence a cage isn't really needed anywhere but the window on the door. For safety reasons they may make the cage fully enclose the oven though. Not completely sure. Also, the size and spacing of the holes is specifically designed for microwaves of the specific frequency of the oven. It can probably greatly reduce most similar wavelengths, but won't completely stop them. I have no idea on the tolerance.

Ultimately, making a shield for the entire electromagnetic spectrum would be very difficult and cumbersome. Of course, you only really have to block the spectrum that is created by the EMP. If you really want to be safe, you can also wrap your device in alternating layers of paper/plastic and aluminum foil before you put it in the microwave. The alternating layers of conductors and insulators essentially creates a capacitor around your device that absorbs power via the photoelectric effect of all wavelengths with equal or more energy than ultraviolet wavelengths. Again, it won't stop them all but it will stop some, and greatly reduce others. The more layers you use, the greater charge it can hold. The more layers you use will also increase the chance that a specific photon interacts with an electron on one of the layers of foil.

Or to sum it up quickly. Don't completely rely on a microwave oven to protect against an EMP. If you really want to be safe without the hassle of building an underground bunker with lead walls, wrap your shit in numerous alternated layers of plastic wrap and aluminum foil, put it in a microwave. Put your microwave in an airtight plastic bag, and put it in a corner in your basement. Then cover it with as much random junk as you can.

Earthsea suffers from the same syndrome. This rule never fails.

Do you have a pdf for that book please ?

Modern technology is far less durable than stone tablets. If there was a civilization at our level before the last ice age little of it would have survived to the time of the Romans and civilization at the level of the Romans wouldn't have been able to reverse engineer anything they found. Compound that with the assumption people are still as they would have been previously and it means there would have been the elites of that civilization hiding out in billion-dollar bunkers until the coast was clear, to come up and take control of their lower classes who survived the radiation with their advanced knowledge and wonders.

The only possible chance to preserve knowledge would be to pass down an unadulterated account of what who fucked it up (nothing even remotely embellished which would morph into something like trolls living under bridges breathing fire through the generations.)

Lead walls are to protect against radiation; not electromagnetic pulses. For that you need a faraday cage; and it's really not complicated to make one. Hell, any metal box with your electronics insulated inside can protect against an EMP.

Electromagnetic waves are radiation. Lead walls don't protect against fall out particles. Well, they do, but not by their elemental composition. Alpha and beta particles can be stopped by a thin piece of plastic, fabric, or even skin. Lead is specifically used to block out the waves. Saying that lead doesn't do this, is as silly as saying a window curtain doesn't block visible light.

It's just a matter of scale at that point. You can block out visible light with a lead wall, but it's overkill. Visible light can be blocked with merely thick dark fabric. A thick dark fabric isn't going to stop x-Rays, but a lead wall will. That's why you wear a little lead lined vest when you get x-rays procedures. Because it stops or greatly reduces the ability of certain wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation from penetration.

Reminder that the first thing that will (((vanish))) would be truth about National Socialism.

The event of SHTF would allow for the first civilization that rises to rule, and it must be a good start. So be sure to save the history that nobody else will, and that which you care about, too (e.g., your obscure fetish hentai doujin).

And also copies of utilitarian things like "The Art of Electronics", "The C Programming Language", etc. - saving arduinos, modules and an old laptop on a metal box would be good to build small electronics just in case.

You don't save your non-root scripts in /bin/, but in /usr/bin/.

Wait, the Foundation series is a normie genocide manual?!

This is absolutely great, but remember to have computing devices that can be used. E.g., take an old computer you don't use anymore and shield it like suggested.

Well it's all implied genocide by recognising they were going to kill each other anyway. Super spoilers below.

The whole series in the first three was about the concept of quantifying humanity to follow a mathmatical formulae in a purely fatalistic fashion. In other words because of the quadrilions in the galactic empire the people will eventally follow a mathmatical average based on the ultimate regresion to the ultimate mean. You literally cannot deal with people in a less autistic way. The scientists were tricked into starting an empire by accidently becoming the best plannet by not going to shit as origonally the chosen planet was so shit there was nothing worth minimg so it was uninhabited. The surrounding planets were so relativly retarded they had to make a tecnocratic religion to keep the surrounding plannets in control in a smaller proto-empire. The scientists on the foundation planet were tricked by a bunch of meme magicians living in their mothers basement as well who made up the almost uninteligable probabilities of humanity that came out to say that the best thing to do was plonk all the smartest people out to bumfuck nowhere. It's pretty funny in retrospect

What would be the safest and cheapest way to preserve information? I have two 2TB external hard drives but that don't do much good if there's no PC to access the data.

Good taste.

It should also ideally be near the center of a craton far away from any tectonic or volcanic activity…if you are going for extreme long term survival.

Get yourself a cheap (but good condition) laptop with power cable and some kind of charger and store it with the drives.

What if a bunch of anons pooled their wealth to buy 100+ hectares of land around Northern BC to create an anarcho collectivist ethno-commune to survive the coming chaos? Just an idea I've had.

I was thinking of getting a netbook since that has way less power requirements than just about anything else. Maybe a small embedded system too. Are solar chargers a thing?

See image.

Thanks for the summary.
Didn't think Carl Sagan was a channer.

The computers can be anything, the data is precious. So really that old machine you used to run XP on is plenty enough, just make sure you've got a full set of peripherals you need (would be pretty bad if your only mouse breaks during the apocalypse).

Not even once.

Look into e.g., the PocketCHIP. Or just the $9 CHIP and your own peripherals. A computer where you can program GPIO pins to trigger doors opening, lights turning on and such (and the skills to use it) would be worth gold if SHTF.

I'm actually fascinated by the possibility of creating a computer that can keep operating unattended for centuries. Imagine post-collapse 300 years from now some archeologists unearth a vault with this dust-covered machine, they push the On button and this aeons-old computer powered by an americium RTG boots up with it's hundreds of terabytes of history, science, engineering data, blueprints, designs, music, art, movies, memes; ect. You could even have monastic or Adeptus Mechanicus tier orders caring for it and transcribing the information.

If you think the only person who can start WWIII is Clinton, you're fucking retarded.

regardless of what causes ww3/the happening methods to safely preserve information for future generation are worthwhile discussion.
now stop being a derailing faggot and think of the generations to come.

Who the fuck else is trying, nigger?

Go back to Holla Forums. We have recorded history for millenia, but all of a sudden Holla Forums needs to waste time coming up with a new way to do it?

Oh, aren't you precious. Just an internationalist Jewish cabal.

And you thought he switched IPs.

Nobody ever fucking said that you inbred retard. It's like saying that buying a fire extinguisher is being pro-arson.

Your insistence on bumping a slide thread to masturbate over the fantasy of a global war is disturbing and only helping to slide the board of important topics so you and your friends can fantasize about war and ignore points such as

Dead drops and things of the like permit a crude, but effective "internet". We'll lose all the satellites and most of the landlines, but we'll still have feet and our laptops/tablets. We'll also still have the sun for solar power.

Preserving knowledge will be way easier than it was in the ancient days. It just takes dedicated librarians.

...

Its almost like we can individually access far more information today than was available to any number of people only a hundred years ago.
Ensuring that the the knowledge of today is not lost tommorow is an admirable goal.
Not that you would understand the nobility in ensuring that, being a jew and all.
You are arguing that being prepared for the worst case scenario is wishing for it, you are either a fool or think that states cannot fall, so a fool either way.

We need to preserve the old memes.

Follow the >>>/eternalarchive/ protocols, using long-term storage formats.

We could deposit bone marrow DNA samples of 100 people into a polar Moon carter which is in constant darkness and near absolute zero. Combine that with a data storage device made out of gold that would tell all of human history.

Then, after humans are gone for about 100 million years, the next intelligent species that doesn't kill themselves would eventually find it by scanning the entire surface of the Moon. Then they can bring humans back in a sort of zoo like environment, a protected reservation - perhaps New Zealand.
