  turns out I have the same setup (sans local LLMs - they are pretty useless on 2018 cards) but in Obsidian :)

  whatever I think might be useful later, I capture through the web clipper extension. [0]

  Anyone thought about using a Steam Deck with this? Or explored the concept of a "Nomad Deck"?

    It might be an interesting idea given that the Steam Deck has reasonable amount of RAM/GPU. The main issue for a knowledge base might be the lack of a physical keyboard though.

  Missing a chance to note (or configure for?) installation on a Raspberry Pi --- that'd make an affordable option to leave powered down, but ready to go in an EMI-shield/Faraday Cage.

    I used it on a long train trip. There was no internet due to drone attacks, and with Kiwix I could browse pre-downloaded Wikis

    I’m convinced that the multitude of off-line Internet tools is a ploy to keep any one of them from gaining traction

  Really clever targeting of a niche. I’d be interested to hear if they find success!

    It never goes offline by already being offline.

  I was expecting the game from my childhood and was disappointed.

    Yeah, that game was really ahead of its time. I still hold out hope some indie studio will attempt a spiritual successor.
