A while ago, the great library of Alexandria burned to the ground, and most agreed that it was a crying shame. At least, most of the people who could read. A few centuries later, a bunch of weirdoes set out to build a new library, much bigger than the old one, but instead of storing the books inside some dumb building, they piled them up on the clouds, way up in the sky. That new library was accessible from anywhere in the world, and by then, most people could actually read and benefit from it. The subscription fee was pretty cheap, and cats ruled the whole place. It wasn't perfect, but overall it was pretty neat. And then at some point, some folks decided they'd rather eat poop than read books, and set out to build machines to produce crap in industrial, never seen before quantities. As far as volume, it was impressive indeed, and now Alexandria 2.0 is overflowing with diarhea. From the floor to the ceiling, shit is everywhere. You can still get at the old books, but they're buried…
