I've taken the liberty of using some points to request a static copy of Wikipedia be added to the network. For those unfamiliar, Wikipedia is an exhaustive collection of factual information compiled and verified by volunteers worldwide. You might consider it a digital version of the library.
For further information, I recommend the Wikipedia article on Wikipedia.
Notable features include:
(1) It is uneditable to maintain the integrity of the source information.
(2) You may, however, leave comments and participate in resulting forum-like conversations.
(3) All pages with information possibly pertaining to a resident's personal history have been removed to ensure privacy.
(4) This is a representative snapshot of Wikipedia from our collective source worlds where that is an internet-capable Earth. I'm told it's circa 2025 CE.
I do not intend to offer assistance in utilizing this resource, but the companion bots have a digital literacy module and should be able to serve in that capacity if anyone has a need.
Comments are left open for you to discuss amongst yourselves as desired. I will not be responding.
[ ooc: Feel free to start threads here about this development, or link to a Wikipedia page and indicate what your character would leave as a comment on it! Reply to one another! Do this any time, not just in this post! Snidely link others to Wiki articles instead of answering them sometimes! Note #3 is meant to indicate that fourth-walling is impossible from this.
Also, Harold wanted to disable comments, but Aurora disabled the disabling comments feature he tried to add. :( Anyway: Merry Christmas, Etraya! ]

I meant because you're from space! You'd know what kind of things are out there, right? She's definitely more advanced than anything we'd have on Earth right now. We don't even have flying cars.

I'm from Krypton, but that doesn't mean I remember anything from it. I was a baby. I don't think that makes me space-biased. Also I really don't think flying cars on Earth are a great idea. People already have enough accidents thinking in two directions.
