Six Degrees of Wikipedia
It says United States links to James Cameron. I can't find where that link is on the page.

Eren to Hitler in 9.06 seconds WR
Very impressive, but you're still using a suboptimal route: You went Eren -> Jäger -> German language -> Germany -> Hitler, but using Six Degrees of Wikipedia, you can find out that the optimal route is Eren -> Star Wars -> Hitler, completing the run in just two links.

How Wikipedia browsing actually works and TV Tropes as well.
There’s a tool that optimizes this. There are very rarely two articles further than four links away. https://www.sixdegreesofwikipedia.com/

I just bought the only physical encyclopedia still in print, and I regret nothing

What is the longest possible path between two Wikipedia articles using only the blue links?
Using the website https://www.sixdegreesofwikipedia.com/ I was able to get an 8 degree path from the chemical formula of C29H31NO7 to Sybra fuscotriangularis. The website finds the shortest path between two articles.

> is there a similar tool that does shortest path?
Yes very many of them, like OP said.
Here’s a popular one: https://www.sixdegreesofwikipedia.com/
- Connection between the ‘Tucson Fireballs’ and ‘Yury Boldyrev’
- I was playing 6 degrees of wikipedia, discovered a new 8 degree path. Try to beat it :3

How would you work effectively with an extremely slow 56Kbps connection?
Use a tool like Internet-in-a-box and keep a "local" version of tons of very useful stuff like Wikipedia and Maps.

Discussion: Do you think 'internet-in-a-box' would be a useful / helpful thing to bring?
Internet-in-a-box is a Free, Open source offline internet tool. Its a step up from having an offline wikipedia copy, it has a lot of Ebooks, and a offline version of Khan academedy youtube videos, and more etc

Build a pocket sized touch computer for cheap!
IMO the best use case is https://internet-in-a-box.org/. You download a bunch of stuff like Wikipedia, videos, books, etc, and any device with WiFi can access them. Much better than relying on something like a laptop or old phone with all of these resources on them. Get a couple of Raspberry Pi's and some SD cards and you can clone them all and have lots of backups. They are small and use little power so you can hide them in places that can't easily be found.

I just bought the only physical encyclopedia still in print, and I regret nothing
this is awesome, but for those of us that don't feel like spending ~$1200... may I suggest internet in a box

An argument for why we need to start hoarding books and textbooks immediately.
Not a hard copy, but unless you’re worried about something destroying all electronics, you can make an offline library with Internet in a box.
