  • Buy large property, create an anarchist commune, build Earthships and similar housing out of sustainable recycled material, setup public gathering spaces, spa areas, perhaps stuff like rooms for artists, musicians, workshops, etc. Grow weed, shrooms and veggies, have some animals living in relative freedom and perfect health.

    Ensure everything is weather proof based on location's projected future climate, build water/heating/energy infrastructure (solar, wind), offer each building as rent-to-buy, keep growing the community and make sure to plan for the day the government gets scared and sends in their death squads.

    Basically something like Kristiania in Copenhagen but bigger and more focused on sustainability and land mass, so probably outside of major cities.

    Addendum: Would be a good idea to make it impossible to have this grown into an insane religious cult though. 🌚

  • Gained access to the school's domain admin account and fucked with th teachers remotely via Tor.

    Wanted to access the teachers calendar because he was a fucking Nazi and stumbled upon VPN credentials to a government-run education network and could've leaked hundreds of thousands of pupil's personal data and school grades but decided against it and shared with admins how I got in and told them how to fix it. Never got into his calendar though. 😶

  • Llama.cpp + Wizard Vicuna (Uncensored, if you want to get the real thing) + one of the web interfaces that are compatible. Should be listed in the readme.

    Or try gpt4all which is much easier to use and even offers a selection of downloadable models.

    7B/13B/30B+ depends on your hardware, especially GPU.

  • Online advertising would take a big hit, lots of small businesses would struggle until other advertising companies (Meta, Twitter, whatever, smaller website analytics products) take over and direct customers to them. Major international businesses would probably sit one out wait until the market has resettled itself (like we're seeing with Twitter right now).

    Lots of search engines would try to capture a piece of the pie.

  • Musk is being an immature crybaby again, but there's a certain pattern of Facebook/Meta hiring execs who used to work on competing products only to gain an insight perspective on their competitors' plans by milking them for insider information.

    They did the same when Google+ launched.

  • The West is so fucked. No more Petro Dollar, not enough time for a working CDBC (I think?), its civilization has been forcefully separated into small individualized groups that are no longer capable of speaking to each other or feeling compassion for each other, capitalist vultures just waiting to profit off of the collapse, politicians are paid, putting on a show, geriatric millionaires are reliving 80s straight to TV political thrillers on cheap stages. Europe is too dependant on the US, the Ukraine war is a meat grinder proxy war. Protests are erupting in France, Switzerland, Belgium and I suspect that's not the last we're going to see of mass protests and police brutality in Europe. Meanwhile Western governments are headed to become more authoritarian to stay in power unless Europe turns away from transatlantic submission to face the reality of a multipolar order. I worry there will be lots of conflict from this because certain people want to stay in power. (Not a dog whistle in any specific direction.)

    BRICS is happening. Africa is rising up to flight Western economic colonialism by demanding fair treatment. The current global economic system leads to rising nationalism, people no longer raising kids, social systems failing, slave labor in poor countries, religious radicalism and unnecessary culture clashes (fixable, if anyone in charge actually gave a fuck about proper integration with dignity).

  • You are totally right, that was way too broad an assumption. I guess you're right and my government just doesn't maintain the rails. I only took issue with the use of "peak" here, but going straight for an authoritarian pseudo-utopia wasn't necessary.

  • It's not, the picture just shows very terrible german trams on even more terrible rails and since I have to take these every day, you can trust me that they're uncomfortable, shaky and stand no chance against whatever they're using in Singapore, for example.

  • I don't know about "peak urbanism", because this is a far cry from the elegant systems in like Singapore or China but yeah, this is so much better than having cars clogging the streets.

    Let's just make sure to remain sceptical of the state in this regard and ve vigilant. They'll use every chance they get to introduce smart city stuff in there that'll be harvested forever without your true consent.
