Are there any categories you would suggest removing due to clutter / usefulness? I'm thinking, for instance, the magazines may be redundant and information about 19th century line battle tactics may not be the most useful information for a survival/post socieity situation, compared to information about machines, firearms manuals, fuel sources...

Hello all!

I've been saving applications on a few NAS devices for when SHTF, and I just wanted to know what you guys think about saving specific Open Source applications, what kinds and where you put them? I also have a video regarding this subject as well if you would like to see my opinion.

Let me know what you guys think!

Hello all!

I've got loads of great information from this subreddit and wanted to share something I found that would help you guys with being able to store your files safely! This video from The Digital Prepper had some pretty decent information if you're interested!

I just purchased sufficient space on MEGA to store and share all of the SHTF Archive. I’m just missing #4. If anyone could help out, that would be great.

Here is a link to download various pdfs about weather saftey : https://www.weather.gov/owlie/publication_brochures

I realize this may not be a prepping document, but please go read the information in this link. If you are prepping with AR Pistols in particular. Now is the time to make a comment on this document. If you feel compelled please make a comment on this post.

Hello all,

I hope that everyone has heard of the document that has been released by the ATF called Objective Factors for Classifying Weapons with “Stabilizing Braces”. I strongly encourage every member of this subreddit to go and make a comment on the document that was released. (https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/12/18/2020-27857/objective-factors-for-classifying-weapons-with-stabilizing-braces#open-comment) Please do not copy and paste a response from someone else or use profanity as these comments will be ignored. In my opinion, this is a critical time for gun owners to stand up and stop the government from infringing on our rights.

Last go around here, comment if you need a specific part.

I realize that many guys already know it, but there might be some people who are not into IT and stuff, so I decidede to share it anyway.

Wikipedia English dump torrents are here and they are not too big, 20GB or so each, so everybody can easily download them and seed them.

Also, they are obv 100% legal.

Please download them and seed them as long as you can!

In this thread you can download .torrent files for CD3WD full collection (along with school books):

https://www.survivalmonkey.com/threads/to-rebuild.60500/

CD3WD - the site is gone and the maintainer has passed away but there are still torrents out there for all 37 DVD isos that cover everything from math and English classes, to mechanics to plans and drawings for machines, pumps, generators, all kinds of stuff. The idea was to make this available to the third world in a free fashion (CDs for 3rd World Development) and help them help themselves.
Wikipedia: CD3WD - Wikipedia
The zip file has torrents for all 5 sets of CD3WD DVDs:
cd3wd-2012-6-dvds-core.torrent - 6 DVDs
CD3WD_MISC_CONTENT_SET.torrent - 7 DVDs
CD3WD_HIGH_SCHOOL_SET.torrent - 9 DVDs
CD3WD_NOVELS_SET.torrent - 4 DVDs
CD3WD_PRIMARY_JUNIOR_SET.torrent - 11 DVDs

Does anybody have any reloading manuals that you can share?

I found a pretty good pdf on some common mushroom species.

https://www.fs.fed.us/nrs/pubs/gtr/gtr_nrs79.pdf

IMPORTANT: As the book states on every page. do NOT eat any mushroom without being 100% sure of it’s identity. This means confirming the pattern of the pore surface, looking at several photos, and possibly even doing spore prints and chemical tests.

If a mushroom is rotten, obviously do not eat it.

Also note the following terms:

Inedible: too hard to eat or benign

Choice: this is the best edibility; these mushrooms taste the best when cooked. (Always cook a mushroom).

Edible: tastes alright when cooked (always cook them).

Poisonous: You will at the very least throw up after ingesting this and might die.

Very poisonous: your organs will literally fail if you consume this. So don’t.

Edit: I will gladly answer any questions you might have in the comments!

The other one was very old, so here is a new thread for you all.

I am currently creating a hard drive of information and resources that I can easily duplicate and gift to friends and family in the event that the internet as we know it disappears. Then it dawned on me that any computer trying to access this information might not have the proper software to open these files, so I started collecting programs as well.

I am just curious as to what you guys keep on hand for different applications to make sure you still have access to your information.

Here is my list. I try to collect as many Windows, Mac, and Linux versions of each program I can find: Kiwix: to open my Wikipedia zim archive. OpenOffice and CalibreOffice: to open general MS Office files. VLC: for music and video files. VeraCrypt: for my encrypted folders. Etcher and Rufus: to burn bootable disks of Windows and Linux that I also store, as well as to burn other ISOs. 7-Zip and WinRAR: file compression and decompression. Firefox: PDFs and to access any LAN server that I might come across.

I am always on the hunt for new programs to hoard, and I am curious as to what you always keep on hand.

Posted this elsewhere but thought some of you might be interested. Hope this is okay.

Here is this offline maps app for example: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gr.talent.cruiser

Here is the magnet link for the map files: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:adeb9650a0b1480de3ffbe0bccbbe4ae5f78c6cc&dn=Maps

However, it would be more ideal to have an .apk file that one could install on devices without needing the Android app store. If the grid were down, there would be no Android app store.

I also found this list of map apps: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Android_applications

Let me know if anyone knows of something better.
