Ah, the intersection near Reservoir station. It’s changed now; for the better, but millions spent due to car dominance, with the government passing it off as public transport and bike network spending.
Here’s some more recent aerial photos from Nearmap:
Seems like twitter might be blocking mastodon domains from a public list somewhere? Even a link to a very small (public) instance was blocked. A link to a single-user instance however, was not blocked.
Interestingly… a link to that same (not blocked) single-user instance but with another (blocked) instance’s domain in the path of the url was blocked.
Hmm… What if… twitter.com was listed as a mastodon server?

If a raster image version would be ok, one avenue to look into is opening up the network tab in developer tools in Firefox, and browsing through all the pages. You may need to zoom in to ensure high enough resolution images are loaded.
At the end of this, click the cog button and “save all as HAR file”.
Then you’ll need to write some code to extract and correctly order all the page images then feed that into a pdf generator tool.
I got as far as manually inspecting the HAR file with some tool and noting that page images are indeed there, but my need for the textbooks lapsed so I did no further work.
Covid panic? More people driving to avoid catching covid on public transport, thus killing more people on the roads?
Taking 2019’s US road toll stats as a baseline, 2020+2021’s “excess” road toll was between 5 and 6 million extra people.
The US covid death toll for 2020+2021+2022 is about 1 million people.
Please note this is just conjecture – correlation is not causation, etc.
Going by the stats here:
Another option is to use a filesystem such as btrfs or zfs which stores checksums in metadata, then use the included tools to verify file integrity and identify bit rot.

Pastiera napoletana is the dish you are looking for, and it’s delicious:
It’s made with grano cotto – cooked wheat grain – which unfortunately takes much longer to cook than pasta does:
