What it does

On reveal: +1 RAM next round.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

RAM is what you spend to play cards.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 4 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 2016

A tool for querying Wikimedia databases and editing Wikidata.

It builds lists of Wikipedia pages or Wikidata items that match several conditions at once, such as categories, templates, links or SPARQL queries. It took over from CatScan2 and won a Coolest Tool Award in 2022.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
