7+ billion people on the planet. Some are dumb. Some are really dumb. Some are bored. Some are children with no life experience. The internet amplifies voices which, in real life, are ignored or disregarded as meritless. There’s no non-verbal communication online hence lots will be misinterpreted.

This will happen lots of times by no fault of yours. You can’t see “the other side” of the conversation so who knows who they are and their motives. I’ll ignore muppets in real life. Harder to spot online but your example will give you clues. And muppets can band together. Move on, they’ll continue to be muppets no matter how much effort and energy is spent debating people who act in bad faith.

No idea what happens in Yank lands. Had joined WhatsApp when it started in the late 00s but multiple changes to Ts and Cs killed it for me.

I’ve also deleted WhatsApp when they changed their terms to some bullshit data sharing or something. It’s tough when everyone and businesses use WhatsApp as the only means of communication. Average person doesn’t even think about tech providers and we’re all worse off getting swept in the tide of ignorance.

IP is only an issue when not swallowed by LLMs. We want action taken to protect the IP of writers, artists and consumers but alas big corpos aren’t losing money there. Selective application of IP protection deems the regime as inappropriate and unenforceable (unless someone with paedophile connections is losing money).

Trying to bring the difference between nocioception, experience of pain and having a subjective experience of pain. Different physical and emotional phenomena.

Does a crab look like it’s feeling pain when it yanks one of its claws out? Mostly seems unphased and it has a far more complex biology than an insect.

“Feel” is something that requires consciousness and a sense of awareness that the pain being experienced is self-related. Consciousness requires complex systems and a nervous system which insects do not possess. Whilst reactive and reflexive actions are performed, whether they experience pain as a personal subjective phenomenon is something that isn’t tested. Reaction isn’t a proxy to consciousness.

Would a bacteria “feel” pain because it reacts to the environment?

I say this as someone that has almost a Buddhist approach to respecting living creatures. However, the science of consciousness and a physicalist approach inform my views.

All this shit because a few thousand yanks in key states have epistemophobia. Levels of retardation beyond belief, the biggliest retardation the world has ever seen. Never so many have been so impacted by a bunch of absolute morons. Back in the day they’d have been given a wedgie and been hanging off the coat hanger. But no, let’s listen to the idiots with money. Dumb fucks

Boils down to not looking into it and being focused on other matters. This one seems quite straightforward and took five minutes to get it up.

You’re correct, it’s a searXNG public instance. Wasn’t self hosting but using various public instances with low success. After a few searches the engines stop replying. I’ll be using this self hosted one for now. Really looking promising.

This is absolutely brilliant, well done! I’ll play around with it for a while. Was looking for a searx alternative as I keep getting no results and this is very timely! Awesome stuff, loving the Zen theme!

Yes, either Netbird or Zerotier allow me to connect to my home lan without exposing ports to the outside. Netbird seems more user friendly to setup and there’s good documentation for openwrt.

What are the upsides compared to Netbird which is based on Wireguard? Seems a bit overkill for my needs, can connect fine without a VPS.

I’m behind CGNAT and wouldn’t want to expose devices to the internet.

After everything is setup, create a network route to distribute an ip to machines connected to you lan. I can’t recall exactly but setting up Netbird was pretty straightforward when following the documentation. They also have their own for Opnsense - (https://docs.netbird.io/get-started/install/opnsense)
