you're thinking of scihub. if you have some 130 TB? of spare storage you can mirror their entire repository
So you can mirror all of it for about $2000?
Surprisingly cheap TBH...
elsevier doesn't want you to know that, but you can download sum total of human knowledge for free. i have 3924 papers
yeah it's even out there as a list of torrents
except Sci-hub hasn’t been adding new papers since 2020. Anna’s Archive is a better bet, because they aggregate both sci-hub and libgen, among others. They also make torrents available for data hoarders. Their torrents total over 600 TB at this point, but include books in addition to articles.
sci-hub and libgen already outputs list of torrents. do they also archive supplementary information? that's where most of actual interesting data is, sometimes it's open source, sometimes it's not. (at least in my field)
