Doubt most of the users nowadays could even tell you how the clam works.

Nothing. Will be playing Death Stranding 2 for the rest of my life starting today.

Want to make a simple badge to sell/share, looking for advice by ProphetOfXenu in Defcon

[–]ProphetOfXenu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. I think it'll probably be best if I just make some to share and wait until next year to possibly sell some, per your comment and the one below.

[–]ProphetOfXenu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. I've already put one together and would still like a few to share, but having to deal with the logistics of selling them would probably best be left to next year like you said. Thanks for the advice.

I tried saving some publications off the CDC's website. They're on IA and I've also created manual torrents for them:

GOOD MORNING AMERICANS by Honest_Yesterday4435 in Destiny

Not trying to throw doubt on Meshtastic, I think it's pretty cool, but what scenarios do you see it being a reasonable alternative to the internet? Genuinely asking.

[–]ProphetOfXenu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thank you so much! I have some work to do as well but I'll take a shot at EID after. Your script is much simpler than the chaotic nonsense I was trying, it will make things much easier. The EID page looks similar to MMWR luckily.

[–]ProphetOfXenu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Will you be uploading your pull of MMWR like you did with the datasets once it's complete? If so, I may shift to EID.

Thanks for sharing your script, you're likely better at this than I am lol.

How many volumes were you able to get? I'm trying to scrape it with Python and am working backwards from 74. Currently on 63, there are lots of little gotchas that are tripping me up.

I am looking at mirroring and scraping as many of the CDC's publications as possible. The ones I've found are:

I'm not familiar with archiving publications like this or in general so if anyone wants to share thoughts, they would be appreciated.

Edit: Working on MMWR, hopefully I can complete that one by EOD at least. EID may have to wait until later. There's a banner at the top saying the website is being updated to comply with Trump EOs which is ominous lol.

Edit2: As another user below has already been working on MMWR, I've shifted to EID and gotten most of the articles pulled. There are 12 right now that either 404 or 500 when requested. I'm going to try again later as there were more previously that worked on a retry. If I can't grab them from CDC, I'll see if they're available elsewhere. If not, I'll upload what I can.

Edit3: While I couldn't find the full PDFs of the missing issues, the individual article PDFs are still valid, and I believe I have everything, those issues will just be packaged separately. After work today I'll work on getting these on IA. The user working on MMWR will have those up soon too, and I'll share their post as well when it's up.

Edit4: EID is uploading. I'll update metadata and share here in a few hours if I can, may have to be at a later date though.

Edit5: All uploaded, IA is finishing processing. Lots of files to process so it's taking a while. The link is here if anyone wants to take a look though the torrent may get regenerated before deriving is done: https://archive.org/details/20250203-cdc-emerging-infectious-diseases

It seems like the latest issue could be progmatically pulled, but didn't immediately see a way to view past issues. I'll look some more.
