@dutchkimble @schizoidman Likely true. It may be justifiable in a commercial setting but in a home? Just how many HD streams would you need to run to suck up that much bandwidth?
I get regular calls from my ISP to upgrade to a 1.5GB package (we have #Fibe in this neighborhood). No thanks - the 150Mb I’m paying for is more than enough (but then, our kids have moved out so perhaps I’m not a typical household).

@FaceDeer @koncertejo @cmnybo … not to be confused with #IceCatNV the Product Content company, who are definitely looking into #AI

@FaceDeer @koncertejo @cmnybo There’s been a fork for years minus any tracking etc, called #IceCat. I don’t see anything to suggest they’re looking at #AI any time soon.

@gvlx @BaroqueInMind @pluralistic @technology @ajsadauskas The @internetarchive would be happy to accept your donation (I give regularly). Their scope is global, though based in the #UnitedStates, and they’re not affiliated with #government or any #Capitalist #corporation. As well as their continuous #WaybackMachine web scraping they also have #Video and #Text archives plus some niche things like the #CoverArt archive.

@ajsadauskas @pluralistic @technology There’s always @internetarchive . If you want a place to preserve your videos, and you don’t require #monetization, upload them.
The #WaybackMachine might already capture your videos, but you don’t need to take the chance, and their Video library is better curated.
