University textbooks? Encyclopedias? You should try scholar.google.com

Kinda glad that I kept most of my university textbooks and have a bunch of encyclopaedias and shit lying around.

I know! Five years ago, I got so much shit for keeping print encyclopedias and other reference material. “It’s all on the Internet,” they said.
The joke is on them: the Internet is run by humans and humans are idiots.

I’ve got some bad news for you about the people who wrote those encyclopedias.

If it’s written down AND printed out it is correct.

How to verify? I just printed the above comment. Printers have an objectivity-gizmo that disallows the printing of anything incorrect, y’know!

I lived through 2 weeks without power once after a storm. Made me realise how valuable physical information/ entertainment is.
