The state of the internet as it is currently is so disappointing. I remember reading nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9 ‘s book wherein he was describing the early internet- and what a wondrous place it was. So many ideas and so much info.

Now 😞 it’s curated rubbish and half the stuff is AI generated gibberish. Or repeats of the same “safe and allowed” website which I have zero desire to read or hear from.

Apologies for the rant, my disappointment runs deep today.

I’ve been trying to research something important and am getting nowhere

It's annoying. But, how are you searching? There's a lot of better stuff out there if you can Cyrene hours you're looking for it.

Thanks! I’ve just started so my initial searches are likely quite primitive.

It was just a quick search on my topic to see what was available and to see if there were any threads I could pick up. Ideas I could follow etc.

I’d love to hear your ideas on how I should be searching if you are keen to share?

Don't use Google. Try nearly anything else first.

Yes agreed, they are horrible!

goes to the internet .... for research

then blames the internet not himself

hahahaha

god bless your foolish mind

get books (older the better)

no worthwhile research accomplished

before years of intense study

why is older better?

to survive is proof value

Yes I realised my mistake, my hopeful heart remains naive indeed.

Was hoping for some direction, a place to start not end. It used to be like that, one could find little gems in the dirt. Now, just dirt.

As an an avid reader I’d love to hear your book suggestions?

for you who dares so boldly and conducts himself so humbly, for you only the most refined

Aristotles works can be found published by Loeb in cute books suitable to carry and ponder lifelong

clean logic can never be read too oft

think ye a seer who can peer into the nether?

only a true poet can break the primordial messages of Blake

or fair thee the unsurmountable abyss of scientific zeal? dreams of Lovecraft stir terrible truths to the woken everafter DISTURBED

Excellent suggestions, thank you 🙏
