- **[Wikipedia](wikipedia.md)**: of course, but don't limit your search to it. Searching other language Wikipedias with machine translate can also help find extra info.
- **[Citizendium](citizendium.md)**: can offer a different angle of view from Wikipedia.
- **non-SJW forks of Wikipedia**: to get past SWJ censorship/propaganda on Wikipedia try e.g. [infogalactic](infogalactic.md) or [metapedia](metapedia.md).
- **Britannica online**: proprietary, but articles are nicely written, facts are in the public domain so we can steal them.
- **[wikiwikiweb](wikiwikiweb.md)**
- **[Wiby](wiby.md)**: this will find nice sites of tech nerds that Google won't show among first results
- **[Project Gutenberg](gutenberg.md)**: mostly older books but there are already some computer related books like [RMS's](rms.md) biography or [Jargon File](jargon_file.md)
- **University theses**: many university theses are publicly accessible and usually nicely sum up topics, bachelor level theses may be better understandable than PhD/master theses.
- **University theses** (and scientific paper of course): many university theses are publicly accessible and usually nicely sum up topics, bachelor level theses may be better understandable than PhD/master theses.
- **Slides**: slides from various presentations are actually great resources as they condense the topic into its main points, they filter out the piles of noise.
- **Wikisource** and **Wikibooks**

- **[Internet Archive](internet_archive.md)**: A lot of things can be found on the old web that today drown in the bloat of shitsites, also Internet Archive has archives of various forums etc.
- **[YouTube](youtube.md)**: Yes, sadly this is nowadays one of the biggest sources of information which is unfortunately hidden in videos full of ads and retarded zoomers, the information is unindexed. If you are brave enough, you can dig this information out and write it here as a proper text.
- Try searching with different search engines than just Google (wiby, Yandex, Bing, Yahoo, ...).
- **Non-web**: When web fails, you can search the [darknet](darknet.md), [gopher](gopher.md), [gemini](gemini.md), [usenet](usenet.md) etc.
