The entirety of human Wikipedia takes up less space than some video games. Wild EDIT: not sure if I meant to say "human knowledge" or just "Wikipedia", but clearly y'all didn't care.

WARNING, while the download for the ENTIRE WP including images is small, the extraction is several terabytes in size. WP is mostly text and text compresses VERY well.

Yes, finally a solution to the hypothetical of ending up being sent back in time, and needing to explain how to make modern technology.
@AdamMPick
Without media. 428.36 TB was the real number in 2023, according to Wiki.
@chowrites6179
This feels like the modern equivalent of those gigantic collection of encyclopedias you see in ritzy houses or expensive offices
@rohanchavan5778
Now imagine the internet archive being so downloadable....
@meestyouyouestme3753
“You’re under arrest for downloading all of Wikipedia.” “wait I can explain everything!”
@Wppsamsung2024
This is genuinely the best short I have ever seen! No tricks, no fluff, incredibly interesting and useful and information. Thank you, subbed.
@migueldoesstuff6994
So every isekai protagonist has Wikipedia downloaded to their phone
@yesteryearr
Somehow, even in the midst of an apocalypse, someone will tell me I shouldn't trust Wikipedia as a source.
@azzaahmed7367
if you were stranded on a island and you did this you would come back smart as hell
@Genielamp25
crazy that the sum of human knowledge is less than a third of the size of a single log file for ghost of tsushima
@cubekoss7547
RDR2 is more than wikipedia
@raynfall77_69
I've had so many imaginary conversations with historical figures from the past, and knowing this just made my future imaginary conversations SO much easier and accurate
@CitizenSnips69
When society collapses and we devolve back into cavemen, one of our distant descendants is going to stumble upon the entirety of Wikipedia and become the new god
@Lord_eBatts
That explains why main characters seem to know how to do everything in apocalypse scenarios
@diatonicdelirium1743
Pro tip: unpack it on a compressed volume or directory tree; it's mostly text that compresses extremely well.
@HetzerHowitzer
Time to upload the entirety of Wikipedia into my neurolink
@PocketPropulsion
Tbh considering I live in a country where foreign websites constantly get blocked and shut down due to government restrictions, this is insanely useful, gonna go download the entirety of wikipedia for myself, just in case
