don't lick your phone then, seriously, if you don't like a feature, do use it. Done.

answering my question

this works:

wget https://archive.org/download/Dungeon_Magazine_006/Dungeon_Ma...

I just wrote a quick scrip to increment the issues

mobi = "wget https://archive.org/download/Dungeon_Magazine_{count}/Dungeo..." pdf = "wget https://archive.org/download/Dungeon_Magazine_{count}/Dungeo..."

with open("grab_dragon.sh", "w") as file1: for index in range(200):

        str_index = str(index)
        if len(str_index) != 3:
            str_index = str_index.zfill(3)
        pdf_format = pdf.format(count=str_index)
        mobi_format = mobi.format(count=str_index)

        file1.write(pdf_format + "\n")
        file1.write(mobi_format + "\n")

FWIW, I just donated $5 monthly to archive.org because of this....whoever did it, thank you!

this is so cool; i see that there's a way to dl individual issues, but I was wondering if there was a way to bulk dl them? thanks in advance.

Having just bought a pair of DT 1770 pros, I will be really interested to see how these compare. Also, how they will interact with my DAC/HeadPhone amp.

why is this a bad thing? Often Wikipedia is responsible for publishing the info that google displays as the one zero-click result.

I just assumed that Wikipedia objectives include making all information easily available. So, by that measure, Wikipedia is succeeding or so it seems.

Wikipedia is not add driven and therefore how much traffic the site attracts really is secondary to meeting their knowledge sharing goals.

Thanks, privacy is always a concern but also something I have largely given up on. Which is definitely sad. I just thought it funny that aa.online-metrix.net seemed pretty bogus. On well. I remember the days when software companies (I worked at one) had strong polices prohibiting their software from communicating back to the company without user's explicit consent. Those days are long gone.
