Darren du NordOur home #internet service has gone out during this snow storm. I still have mobile. But I also have offline access to #Wikipedia and #ProjectGutenberg on my laptop, thanks to @kiwix !

Its great that these priceless repositories of knowledge are free to access and use, and made available to self host. For me, this just a fun project, but for an offline school in an under developed country, this same tech can help kids learn or provide access to knowledge in an emergency.
