I know Usenet was used to transfer text messages and stuff in the early days but not so much nowadays. Also, I know this topic is more nuanced than this, but I just wanted to make some humour out of it, that’s all.

Same for Kiwix libraries
It’s nice having a completely offline Wikipedia archive in an easy to use format.
My GF thinks it’s weird that I keep an offline Wikipedia.
It is, but it’s a GOOD kind of weird! Like the Coen brothers, Mitch Hedberg, or Willem DaFoe’s confusing genitalia!
I think it’s just a sensible thing to do with the state of the Internet, where everything is ephemeral and at the whims of authoritarian assholes.
Exactly my thoughts. Why I also keep another 15ish TB of media and other data I think should be preserved
