Primary sources, heavy noise, hard money, and time.
What this is
An independent index of primary documents, recorded talks, loud records, and public domain plates. Assembled by hand, one entry at a time, and kept open to anyone who finds it. No algorithm decides what sits on these shelves. There are no ads, no tracking, and nothing for sale.
Exa is ten to the eighteenth (10^18). One exaflop is 10^18 floating-point operations per second, the threshold of exascale compute, where an exascale supercomputer draws twenty to forty megawatts of continuous power off the grid and frontier clusters scale into hundreds of megawatts of transformers, copper, and concrete. A plinth is the structural block that carries a monument's load into bedrock. The name is literal: industrial-scale signal set on a hard plinth. Exaplinth.

Unmonitored
Nothing here is hosted, mirrored, or downloaded. Every entry is an outbound pointer to a source that already exists. Players mount only when you click one, so no request reaches a video host until you choose to screen something. Type is served from this domain. There is no analytics script on any page.
Fonts and public-domain art are served directly from this origin with camera, location, and author metadata stripped at build time. Every response ships with a strict no-referrer header, frame denial, and browser permissions locked against camera, microphone, geolocation, and ad-cohort tracking. No cookies, local storage, session tokens, or fingerprinting scripts exist on this domain. When you play a video, it mounts inside an isolated youtube-nocookie.com frame only at the moment of click.
