rich corrupt fascligarchs couldn't care less about your kids' education, let alone "too much screen time. they need manual laborers from the peasant class, they don't need a generation of educated adults who have the capacity to form their own opinions regardless of what they're told to believe
so the answer is simple: label access to information as evil, and then eliminate said access
I downloaded Wikipedia and what archives of the internet I could a couple years ago, I recommend everyone else do the same. They will remove our access to it. Google is already adding rewritten history into it's ai search results. It will be too late soon.
What things other than Wikipedia do you recommend?
Download a program called Kiwix. From there you can install offline versions of Ted Talk, Stack Exchange, Wikis, tons of guides and forums, project Gutenberg, and SOO much more.
It can then be used as a server from any device (you literally just push a button) which allows you to access your media over your LAN.
The UI is pretty shit but it's a great program.
Of course it doesn't have everything. Like I also torrented the Anarchist Library (ironically not offered on their site as a single file, but I found it from a reputable source) and I've downloaded some other odd YouTube playlists here and there to keep (IT and homelab tutorials, music mixes, etc).
How big is your file storage for all this?
I fit all of that on a 1TB HDD
Including a bunch of Ted Talk videos with good video and audio.
