constantly scratching my head about what to do about this tech collapse, sometimes. perhaps less is more, and, importantly, i shouldn't try and force technical solutions onto what are in essence social problems. but i do like a challenge. everything is expensive. the web has gone to shit. LLMs are a new kind of imperialism. do tildes? pubnixes? microcontroller computers? rent a storage unit and process ewaste? permacomputing. human scale computing. digital literacy. the solarpunk movement.
