The project seems to be about bootstrapping a civilization after collapse, and you’re worried about... accelerating resource extraction? None of these machines

None of these machines are cost-effective in the current day world. Actual resource extraction operations are going to use massive machines made by big manufacturers. Small scale hobby miners and such will just order equipment from AliExpress or refurbish old equipment. There is literally zero risk of this project accelerating global resource extraction.

- iamnothere 1y agoNeither hobby miners nor large mining companies would be expected to survive civilizational collapse. Hence the desire for a project like this one. I’m not sure how you could misinterpret my reply so completely.
