Welcome to the News community!

I am not now, nor have I ever been a Christian, but shit like this makes me go Jesus Fucking Christ.
Archive.org is a critical repository of knowledge and archiving the internet. Elon has cut nothing, but damaged a ton. It is kinda incredible how many damage he has done.
Elon Musk is what you’d get if you gave the illusion of personality to a 4Chan troll.
He's the poster child for scared, greedy, paranoid nepo babies shielded from reality by wealth inheritance and wealth inequality, incapable of empathy turning him into a fascist bigot idiot trying to kill other people to hoard more money.
Like those villains that are made of million of insects, each cell in Musk’s body is a 4chan troll.
Oooooh I like that idea. Horrific imagery, but clever.
Both the Internet Archive and Wikipedia are really important. I guess the way is to make alternatives or datahoard in these difficult times.
Downloading and accessing Wikipedia offline through Kiwix is actually pretty easy.
How does it work? Does it download all Wikipedia or any other website I point it to (like Project Gutenberg as it says on the website) pages or does it download it when I access the page?
Trying to burn digital books. Fascism in 2025.
Double plus ungood
What's the size on this can I download a copy
Pedabytes, but you can help in other ways. Donating, uploading and the Archive Warrior. There may be waits to support via torrents too but I do not know.
noo I found pages there that where offline for years before I read a mention of them 😥
Who else is waiting to see "DOGE Cuts Funding for Wikipedia"?
The government funded them $345,000.
This is 100% spiteful and not an example of "wasteful government spending"
We can easily crowdfund this. Especially the parts regarding Republican fuckery.
America, where the good stuff is funded on the side.
Just join the party? Everybody knows the US is a steaming shitshow more than usual.
Sorry, I don’t see what you’re saying
Elon Musk will go to any length to scrub this image from the Internet:
He looks like what you’d get if you took a dick and made it a pussy.
...what
I said, he looks like what you’d get if you took a dick and made it a pussy.
As in, he’s a dick (asshole), that’s a pussy (coward).
Liberetard
Yup
Hopefully this galvanizes support for them, like anti-boycotting essentially
Maybe, but likely only temporarily. Bad guys be winning.

They destroy the past to sell you a future. It's coercion and extortionate.
Well since I stopped paying federal taxes I might as well donate to the IA directly.
Get out of here you rich fucker!
Hahaha, I wish. It's more that I just stopped paying. I am sure it'll come back on me later but that's a future me problem.
