What it does

Arrives with a shield. Ongoing: While this card keeps its shield, +2 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

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.

Institutions cards protect your side, and come back strong when you're losing.

The site, in 2004

A website hosting open-source software projects for free, with code repositories, bug tracking, wikis, forums and download mirrors.

It was the first service to host open-source projects free of charge. By September 2020 it listed over 502,000 projects and had more than 3.7 million registered users.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
