Thanks! That was quite a read. Had a laugh when I got to this "months later this post is still being shared with people when they ask about Kagi."

Don't think its a scam still, just another shitty tech bro start up with no future other than making the founders rich. I guess that's the scam though isn't it...?

I think the search is decent, and haven't used any of the "AI" cos fuck "AI". Still, with the info in there about privacy and PII, I am going to abandon this experiment and I guess go back to Searx for now?

Thanks again for the info.

What is it that you don't like about it? I had a look and I've been trying it out, and it seems pretty good and not a scam at all

I built my own strawblae house and have worked on half a dozen others. I have designed 3 award winning homes, one of them was strawbale.

Mice aren't a problem, the walls are sealed with clay (inside) and lime (outside) render, the mice can't get in.

Same with fire, the straw is tight and sealed, they don't burn. In huge bushfires in southern Australia a few years back, several families sheltered I a strawbale home as the fire passed.

Moisture not a problem if you have proper eaves and footings, which you will cos you design it properly, right?

Loads of massive benefits over brick or stick built.

I have no data on wolves sorry, but definitely dropbear proof

Happy to answer any questions.

Also walkable towns and cities. Also public and community spaces. Also strong interconnected communities. All these things are bad for capitalism and the ruling class and their enforcers though so don't expect to see any change in the policy of dismantling communities

You've just said the same thing but you don't understand.

Reducing that job from 18 months to a few weeks frees up workeder for other tasks. That means nobody gets hired to do those other tasks and people who would otherwise have good jobs have nothing.

It also means the people Stoll there can be easily coerced into working for lower wages because there's a line of people at the door who will happily work for less since they're currently unemployed.

That's what replacing workers means and that's the effect of labour reduction. It puts power into the hands of the owner of the tool instead of the people who use the tool to generate cashflow.

This is capitalism - the one with capital exploits the many without, all backed up by the exclusive right to violence of the state which is owned and run by the capital owning class.

Time to start moving away from google services there mate. This behaviiur is only getting worse with time, and don't get me started on the tracking. There are plenty of FOSS apps to do pretty much anything you need to do on an Android device

Antennapod is a great podcast app. I have behind the bastards on there right now!
