Everyone that only socializes online and is basically an asocial hermit, sure. Don't be fooled by the echo-chambers we reside in!

Absolutely not. I'd rather be able to walk to a variety social spaces and not worry about being eaten alive by bugs when outside.

And plumbing, electricity, water.

I'd rather have a modern house, some housemates and no internet.

I'd love a stone or brick built eco build version with full insulation, solar & battery supplemented with and ground or air source heat pumps. I saw that dream house on my last winter trip to Scotland. My sense of making it!

Internet is useless compared to a proper well. Water - good

Everyone I know who lives in the woods has a well functioning well. None of them I know have fast internet.

Hell naw, that's where they'll find me dead. Horror movies 101.

Add a road nearby so I can get stuff delivered, and I would never leave.

The older I get, the more I realize Ethoslab has it all figured out

Would like a variant on this, the bugs and darkness of the woods would drive me insane:

  • On a field, farming optional
  • Add a soldering station, solar panels, well with pump, and septic tank
  • Perimeter tripwires and defense (nobody's coming to help if something happens)
  • Tornado shelter with medical supplies and a healthy supply of 3D filament

And I'll finally be able to complete everything on my bucket list that doesn't involve travelling.

I don’t like mosquitos
