I could get in to a conversation about file formats, permacomputing, owning your data, hardcopy, etc.

This is a thing that I feel strongly about, have big opinions on, and can talk about at length.

Is that something you're interested in, or should I keep it simple?

If I should keep it simple:

Yeah! This is something we have the chance to decide right now. "Preservation means future access" @tjowens (head of digital collections at the library of congress) said as much in his book The Theory and Craft of Digital Preservation (I wrote a review of that here: https://ajroach42.com/thoughts-on-digital-preservation/ )

We can't know what the future will hold, but we can make intentional choices to enable future access.
