[β] mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago (2 children) we need all repos to be stored offline, and documentations to troubleshoot. the 1st i have no idea how much space we will need. Most linux packages are prerry light, no? But there is A LOT of them... the 2nd is easy. Heard someone say the entire of wikipedia is 200GB, should be doable. Dont forget the technical wikis too: Debian, Gentoo, Arch. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [β] skisnow@lemmy.ca 11 points 10 months ago (1 child) Can't remember who it was (b3ta? popbitch? penny-arcade?), but I recently saw a comment by someone who's been running a website since the turn of the millennium, and they said that fully 99% of the links they posted two decades ago were no longer valid. To really put that into perspective, you have to remember that for most sites to get linked to from a popular site like that, meant that it was usually something of value that would have had a lot of work put into it, and that people found interesting or useful. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] Retro_unlimited@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago Itβs truly devastating how much of the old internet has died to the corporations taking over the internet. permalink fedilink source parent [β] ozymandias117@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago* The official USBs of Trixie fit all 28 DVDs of AMD64 on a 256GiB USB stick https://www.linuxcollections.com/products/debian/debianusb.htm?id=51007 You'd probably want the 512GiB with all the sources for a real backup in this scenario permalink fedilink source parent
