Geek Almanac has two modes. Ephemeride shows a tech or geek event that happened on today's date, with the option to display how old you were when it happened. Encyclopedia shows a random article drawn from a base of 12,000+ tech terms, summarized from Wikipedia by an LLM in both English and French. Every article ships with an illustration and a QR code linking to the original source. All data is pre-generated as static JSON on GitHub Pages, so the plugin costs nothing to run no matter how many people install it.
