You're welcome to take that to Chubby Emu, who cites his sources as well about how it spreads. I'll take his well researched opinion over randos.

The Andes strain, which is what is being discussed, is indeed spreadable person to person.
I'm not offended, your joke just sucked.
You're a pretty shit comedian if you think that's a joke
It's hard to take your argument seriously when you can't even imagine that plenty of people are already running local models with renewable energy already. I'd love to see where you're getting "no one" from, or even just a handful.
Slippery slope arguments are a child's argument. You can throw literally any problem on there and say "Watch what happens when people abuse the system!" Eating a chip is a slippery slope to having a heart attack. Driving a car is a slippery slope towards everyone getting race cars and killing everyone they see.
Heck, I haven't even touched on my thoughts on what I believe are the right ways to use AI (Screw using AI to make images, write stories, etc. Creative works should be human made)
Anyways, you seem set in your doomer view of the future. I do not agree with your view of FOSS software somehow supporting your position, as I see nothing but a large growing (and thriving) community making the world a better place. I'll not change your mind so I'll stop the conversation here.
I'm not sure when you mean no one does what I described. Running a local AI? Ollama is huge, running small models for simple queries is trivial nowadays.
Like I said, I'm not disregarding the costs that went into making the model. Whether I use it or not, it exists and nothing will change that. I did not ask for it to be made, neither did I ask for a tree to be felled to make the grip of my hammer, or for resin to be cast into the table I found at Goodwill, or for any other wonderfully horrid example of the worst humanity has to offer. We live in the mess offered to us, and we as a community can come together to make it better. What we can do as a community is help fund ethically trained models and reduce the reliance on the giant data centers.
I think you might be able to tell where my edible hit in that ramble.
Here's an honest question that I wonder about every once in a while. If I'm running a fully local model at home on my server, and my electricity comes largely from hydroelectric dams, am I contributing to the demise of the world? I watch the power usage when I run it, and I waste more power sitting idle in Final Fantasy 14 for a few minutes while using the bathroom than I do running a local AI.
To be clear, I am not disregarding the absolute horrors that our capitalistic overlords are wreaking on our world in the creation of these models, or the ethical concerns of where the training data came from. Those sins are on their heads.
Markiplier.
YouTube is a cesspool of sludge, but Mark is one of the few gems of creators. His content isn't for everyone, but Mark as a person is genuine in what he does. He's not in it for the money, and the vast wealth he has accumulated from his success he's put right back into more creative projects.
His biggest recent success being Iron Lung, helping pave the way for other indie projects to get to the big screen (Glitch's Digital Circus, Jacksepticeye announcing a Bloodborne movie with Sony).
Even when arguing with a loved one, they can still make peace with each other over a common interest. Once the show's over, they get back to their argument
Honestly I'd steer away from Elegoo nowadays. They're not bad, but they're hostile towards the open source community (It took a while to force them to release the code for the Centauri Carbon since they're using a bastardized version of Klipper). I've only had Elegoo printers up until now, but I'd look elsewhere nowadays.

Yeah, this is a pretty easy one to tell. No hinges, it's on the other side of the door frame, I don't see a way to think this could be a pull door.
