A British field guide and research project about high technology, low dependency, and household-owned AI.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-23 issue.

Why it surfaced

Solystopia connects a manifesto about practical freedom to Project Hearthmind, a proposed local AI setup measured by power draw, token efficiency, and cloud spend avoided. The site is unusually candid about its starting point: Phase 0, no hardware purchased, and £0 of a £6,000 funding target.
