It's not apples to oranges, hon. It's apples to apples. Both things are talking about outsourcing a portion of the job human mind usually does to an external technology. Whether that portion is memory and external technology being writing (i.e. not having to remember/memorize as many things because you wrote them down and can refer to them later), or the portion is reasoning and invention and external technology is AI (i.e. not having to come up with a new idea or solve the problem because you can have AI do it for you. Both things prophesize doom and gloom on how the part if human brain that normally does that job is going to go downhill as a result. Except in the case of writing we already know that the doom and gloom didn't come to pass. So there is no reason to suspect the AI related doom and gloom would either.
Comparing apples to oranges. Your memory was produced by neuron connections in the brain not a series of triangular indentations on clay tablets.
Things like this make me real glad I'm in the US.... (Despite the garbage healthcare system)
After writing got first invented: "How do we square memory decline with powerful information storage abilities coming from the new cuneiform script? Are children outsourcing memorization to this new 'writing' technology? What is going to happen to human memory as a result of this so-called 'inovation'? Are we making ourselves dumber? Experts suspect in a few generations an average human won't be able to remember their own family's names without the aid of this 'writing'..."
Hey programmers â is AI making us dumber? https://www.theregister.com/2025/02/21/opinion_ai_dumber/ by nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqywyvcvvkchy6g2udk5n79zzc78jm6nl4gqhy2jttkl7pwtszt75qlgf456 via nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqp4kx439znnv7pejldzr3zs4dxusjcu6n6r4vkr40rwxcrl8hp77qcyl2nm
Used lazily, #AI will make you stupider.

Oh! Ok. Thanks for the information.
I haven't hosted my own relay yet (will be though, eventually) or dealt with StartOS yet. I can try to help you out, though. First, a few questions:
1. What is/are the error messages that you're seeing?
2. Why did you choose this particular OS and relay? When I got to StartOS repo it says: "StartOS is in beta. It lacks features. It doesn't always work perfectly. Start9 servers are not plug and play." If you are just starting, it doesn't sound like the first OS to try because you may not understand the issue you run into to troubleshoot and the likelihood of running into issues on beta software is high.
3. Why are you using Tor while setting it up? It seems like an unneeded layer of complication right out of the gate (unless the government or governments are after you). You're setting up a Nostr not a Tor relay, right? So test with a Nostr client. Turn off all peoxies like Orbot and vpns and get it working in as simple setup as you can first. Once it works like that, then you can start adding layers of complication one at a time (like Tor)
4. Did you read through and follow everything in the Readme:
Hi, iCode2! Check out this nostrich:
They post job listings on the regular. Good luck!
Woah! I didn't know pecan butter was a thing.
How would you retrieve it later? It'll just heal over and be eraced. And however you cut it off again to try and find the seed it'll never be exact. No way you'll be able to retrieve the seed again.
