Unfortunately, the data storage requirements for an offline Wikipedia plus my other cool stuff are still beyond me on only a 128 GB MicroSD card. Maybe a few years from now it will be feasible. 10 years, 100-fold improvement? Oh, oops, that puts the capacity, beyond the SDXC 2 TB limit, at 12 TB. You need the next new standard, SDUC for that. We’re going to have to wait and see on that. If there’s a new, low-power Raspberry Pi out by then, compatibility with my existing Raspberry Pi will be out of the question.
