@arisummerland Books are always an excellent choice to keep on hand.  @gekko3k @SnowshadowII @Darkphoenix @gleick sometimes I say apologies to the trees @arisummerland @gekko3k @SnowshadowII @Darkphoenix @gleick The #histodon I know keeps reminding me that nothing, absolutely *nothing*, currently used to store information beats printed paper for longevity. If you want something to survive your current cultural milieux, put it on archival paper, in a dry cave. Better yet, **move** to that dry cave, and start a religious organizataion which eschews technology and embraces food forests.  @arisummerland @SnowshadowII @gleick I'm always looking for reference books on certain specialties, like herbs. I also kept all my textbooks from college. @Darkphoenix @gleick @Darkphoenix @gleick You still download it but using torrent prevents a massive traffic jam on the internet @SnowshadowII @Darkphoenix @gleick you used to be able to hack/make an "off-grid" wiki ... https://www.hackster.io/news/stay-informed-during-the-apocalypse-with-an-off-grid-wikipedia-device-b37332c7bc1d @martin_fff Edited to add: Perhaps you might be interested in adding US and tech hashtags to your reply? __________ @martin_fff @SnowshadowII @Darkphoenix @gleick You still can from the software side, the @kiwix software allows you to have your own offline copy 🙂 @hlabrande @martin_fff @SnowshadowII @gleick @kiwix  @martin_fff @SnowshadowII @Darkphoenix @gleick this stuff is no joke. Even if it has flaws it's one of the most important sites. Musk attacking it is a proof of value. @SnowshadowII @gleick and the volume is shared over several nodes. So kinda similar to block chains |

@SnowshadowII @Darkphoenix @gleick thank you. This is one reason why I have been buying more books lately. I'm just getting to collecting the reference books that I want to have. This will definitely go into my files.
