Stuff to look at that might influence how you see what you look at...

This is my process for researching... (Edited a little bit for time saving measures.)

"Decentralized Web Hosting: A Fad, or Here to Stay?"
by "scott" / on Colocation America [Look into this org to see who/what they are and what they espouse.]
https://www.colocationamerica.com/blog/is-decentralized-web-hosting-a-fad
I was looking into starting a web site (not just a blog), in response to my reading in Kenneth Goldsmith's book, DUCHAMP IS MY LAWYER [I will talk about this book in depth once I finish reading it], but I wanted a decentralized web host so that my nonsense couldn't be removed if I pissed somebody off. I'm not sure if this article did much to suggest / clarify where I might want to build---but I skimmed it, so maybe I missed the information that I needed... I'll probably reread the article after I do a search to see who or what Colocation America is and what they stand for... (I'm always skeptical of the reliability of my sources...)
ADDITIONAL! It's an advert. This is just a company is trying to sell me server space. (Always be skeptical when the author is just a single name. Usually, that's some BULL....shit!) Everybody wants to sell me stuff, but I ain't got no money!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I'm assuming there is a way to make a website on the Hive blockchain...but I don't know how to program. (I had a bit of fling with Basic back on my Apple IIc, but things have changed a bit since 1984...) Hmmmm... I'll keep thinking about it!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Moving on to other concepts and weird things, how many people have heard of Cicada 3301? I HADN'T, until I ran across the episode on MonsterTalk (which is my favorite podcast!) There was a live MonsterTalk episode (via Zoom), where the hosts, Blake and Karen, discuss the Cicada 3301 Mysteries with Jerry Drake (who works for the Library of Congress and specializes in encryption and cataloging codices!) This is fascinating stuff, full of puzzles and cyphers and mysteries, and I'd love to discuss this in some detail with a willing victim!
If you have thoughts on this video (or this type of thing), feel free to share. I'd love to argue with somebody about encryption and unsolvable puzzles. Is it ART? Is it PHILOSOPHY? Is it a recruiting tool for a secret society? Is it nonsense? (I'm very PRO nonsense...)
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Last bit of bother... Here is a 5+ minute long audio jaunt that I recorded on an actual CASSETTE DECK (a teal Byron Statics AM/FM Radio Recorder Cassette Player on a 90 minute Maxell UR Type I Normal tape!) It's playful blather, but it's a little funny, VERY LO-FI, and has some autobiographical ramblings from my youth. Maybe some people will listen to it and enjoy it!?
[link to audio program on 3Speak: UPDATE!!! The 3Speak crew is updating their magical computers, and I picked the wrong moment to try to post my piece. As soon as the program is UP, I'll insert the link! (Patience is a virtue!)]
(As soon as the program "encodes," I'll add the link!!! (If I haven't added it by the time you read this, just check my blog page and see if it's there!))
Here it is!!!
If you could stomach the low quality audio, let me know. If you can't stand it, that might be interesting to know, as well, although it's so much fun to record with that cassette, I'm probably going to keep doing it anyway! Ha!!!

Later!
