I apologise for my dismissive tone earlier. Thanks for putting your idea out there 🙂

…aaand this is why chatgpt is no substitute for expertise.

It’s “generative” AI, in that it generates lists of words that fit together. But it has no actual understanding of anything so the stuff it generates is totally surface, middle-of-the-road whatever-you-want-to-hear.

Mostly to avoid conspiracies. The intended users are people who want to protect vulnerable family members.

Another purpose is to demonstrate that the big social networks could get rid of disinformation if they wanted to - “look what 1 person can achieve, in their spare time”, kinda thing.

The only time I use ddg is to find conspiracy sites to add to the blocklist I maintain. All the trash rises to the top in that search engine. It’s rubbish.

How does the data throughput compare to cloudflare or wireguard?

After a collapse there’d still be people nomading all over the place so they’ll find it eventually, just about anywhere. Near a place likely to be valuable for hunter-gatherers like a river mouth or lake. Or at a mountain pass where travelers will be funneled towards.

Tibet? Central Australia? Mongolia? Canada? With the way climate change is going somewhere not too hot might be best. Tasmania, New Zealand, Finland, Iceland…

Maybe the makers were on a budget and needed somewhere nearby. Or maybe they just wanted to make a point and have a laugh.

If the the creators were serious about the monument they’d have put it far away where extremists couldn’t easily bomb it. They should have been able to foresee the rise of reactionary forces as the collapse neared.

Still, plenty of time to make another.

One nice feature of Kbin is you can block domains. So when I block rumble.com right after typing this, I won’t see any more videos from rumble in all communities.
