I would bet that if advanced civilisation still exists in 10,000 years, they'll have an archived version of Wikipedia from around this century. (And probably quite a few weirdos will still keep replicating the bible)

We might have disassembled every planet within a few thousand light years to englobe each corresponding star within a Dyson swarm. We might have suffered a cataclysm that almost wiped us out, and have only just returned to the equivalent of the early industrial age, and the occasional remaining patch of carved rock writing from our time is as unreadable to those living in that new world as ππ ππ π πππ π πππππ ππ π πππππ πππ π πππππ π π πππππ ππ πππ ππ ππ ππ πππ π ππ ππ π ππππππ is to us.
