@lavaeolus@fedihum.org @SafeguardingResearch@fedihum.org Just a note that when your set your crawler to scraping a gov site, be reasonable about how frequently your requests are posted. The AI/MML bots are out there doing the same damn thing, and some sites have set their defenses on DROP if they don't like the look of your jib. Also, if your IP traces back to Malaysia or Lithuania or some other out-of-the-way non-US place, you'll look even more suspicious.

@lavaeolus@fedihum.org @SafeguardingResearch@fedihum.org If you want to archive stuff from youtube without filling up your disk, this should do: yt-dlp -i --restrict-filenames --yes-playlist --all-subs -o "%(title).100s-%(id)s.%(ext)s" --write-playlist-metafiles --check-formats --format-sort hasvid,+res:360,vcodec:av01,+size,+tbr VIDEO_OR_PLAYLIST_OR_ACCOUNT_URL +res:360 uses the lowest resolution that’s at least 360px high.

@lavaeolus@fedihum.org @SafeguardingResearch@fedihum.org I heard the servers are still back up for longer now. Is that true? https://www.axios.com/2025/04/04/noaa-research-websites-go-dark-saturday-night
