minus-squarekaty ✨@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoGoing down a Wikipedia rabbit hole is worse than going down a Street View rabbit hole. Ahh I can spend an entire day doing it!
minus-squareBilbo Baggins@hobbit.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoYou’re right, although if you ever get the chance to browse a real physical encyclopedia, it’s a unique experience. Not practical, but it’s a bit like playing a record or playing a game on a real NES. It’s a unique experience. I have a full 2007 set of Encyclopedia Brittanica in the same room as my vintage computer collection. I browse it occasionally.
