It’s not only top soil that we’re running out of. To farm you really need consistent weather patterns and we just don’t seem to have that any more.

There’s been a drought in the state/ province of South Australia for the last several years. Graziers are buying feed for their livestock from another state / province New South Wales. Last week there was a once-in-500-year flood in NSW, so loads of livestock there died and there certainly isn’t any more feed for sale.

I guess “top soil” is one way to describe the problem but there’s a variety of problems really.

Yes.

In fact I’ll go further and suggest that in the not so distant future everyone is going to happily eat insects.

I don’t know much about this but my understanding is that insects are a very economical source of protein, which can be used to produce synthetic meat.

Right now my favorite sausages are probably made from mostly pig offal. You know, tongue tail and bum hole. If at some point in the future the label starts to list synthetic meat amongst the ingredients, I don’t think I’ll even notice.

I guess my point is, it’s just a marketing thing. We already eat loads of things we might think are objectively gross (curdled mammalian excretions for example), but we don’t think about it because it’s just what people eat. On the spectrum of things people eat insects aren’t really anywhere near the gross end.

Bedside table.

Maybe 50 years old.

this sounds great. thanks for the tip!

I think I already have pinchflat. Didn’t know sponsorblock worked for podcasts. Thanks!

LOL. No.

I’m not arguing against privacy.

I’m saying that because this is anonymous it will be used by creeps to store CSAM.

This project is not analogous to the postal service.

The postal service is absolutely necessary for a contemporary economy. As such you do bear the risk that it may be used for nefarious purposes but in the event the service does discover contraband, it’s not anonymous in that the recipient can be identified.

Offering anonymity as a service means providing safe harbor for users with unethical or immoral intent.

Everyone needs secure data storage, but anonymity is a whole other thing.

Of course not, but that doesn’t have anything to do with this.

Yeah. I’m kind of surprised no one else is really concerned about that. The legal ramifications of hosting a service like this are no joke.

Have you considered that as the host, you’re the only person who is not anonymous?

If someone did upload something illegal, and share it with a community, only one member of that community needs to get busted for you as the host to be identified as the “source”.

I’m aware that in civil cases hosts are liable for the content they host, but criminally? IDK.

Anyhow, I didn’t intend to dump on your project. I hope I’m wrong and it all goes great. I look forward to being downvoted to oblivion.

No, there isn’t a solution.

You can’t ethically provide anonymous no-knowledge hosting.

So you’ve built a platform with an ideal use case that you’re absolutely opposed to but have no mechanism to control or even detect.

So naively then.

Usually you just keep logs and then it’s up to the police to enforce, obviously not anonymous though.

I care about privacy and I’ll never use crypto.

Good point. I should’ve read the overview more carefully.

That being the case, my next question: Is this intended to be a CSAM sharing platform, or is it just naively a CSAM sharing platform?

You’d have to accept other forms of payment as well though right?

Do people actually pay for things in crypto?

How do you plan to address offensive or illegal content?

Yeah.

We had twins nearly 2 years ago.

I never really expected “help” but when we were pregnant there were people coming over every day telling us how much they were going to help. My wife has a huge social group, it was kinda overwhelming.

Since they were born, there’s been 1 person who has just been amazing. She’s here for a few hours several times a week and just plays with the kids. She’s been really consistent.

No one else really knows how to help I think. Or maybe they think everyone else is helping. Or maybe just doing their own thing (which is fine ofc).

Do we kinda like this guy or is he just another Elon but yet to achieve his final form ?

This sounds a lot like the warning everyone’s grandma shares every other week.
