Need to write a proper bookmarklet for the wayback archive (:

Posted by jpluimers on 2017/09/14

Some inspiration for writing a proper bookmarklet that finds or saves a WayBack machine page:

On the last link, I was hoping that the https://web.archive.org/liveweb/https://www.example.org would work but it doesn’t work for many URLs and I’m not sure yet why that is.

It has a nice tip that works though:

Another useful tip: To see the raw copy of the page without the archive.org overlay, insert im_ into the URL, so for example:
http://web.archive.org/web/20130626030834/http://vorb.is/
becomes
http://web.archive.org/web/20130626030834im_/http://vorb.is/

youtube-dl – saving both audio and video without keeping intermediate files seems impossible

Posted by jpluimers on 2017/09/14

Just in case someone has a better alternative than youtube-dl alias:

alias youtube-dl-audio-and-video='youtube-dl --keep-video --extract-audio --audio-quality 0 --audio-format mp3'

It extracts the audio and keeps the video.

The result is that also all intermediate downloads are being kept.

So even after studying the README extensively the only alternative seems to be a double download like this:

youtube-dl-audio-and-video() { youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-quality 0 --audio-format mp3 $1; youtube-dl $1; }
