What it does
Ongoing: +2 Power to your other Modern cards here.
Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 1 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 2010
A single web page of a million pixels, sold in small blocks as tiny adverts to pay for a student's university course.
Alex Tew, a student from Wiltshire, charged $1 a pixel. The last 1,000 pixels went on eBay in January 2006, taking the total to $1,037,100, and the idea spawned copycat sites.
In 2010: Tew had promised to keep the page online for at least five years, which meant until 26 August 2010.
Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.
The Weird Web: One page, one joke, no reason. The internet at its best.
