I absolutely love your posts. I didn't realize you were posting daily. Every time I saw a post (a few ten times) , I tried to interact with it. You've given me some great recommendations for comics. Absolutely loved them.

I look forward to what you have to share in 2025!

I use windows. I haven't paid for a windows key since windows 7 iirc. Windows has been free for years. (I know you pay with your data etc. Good luck convincing average Joe who uses all social media services that this even matters)

For me personally: I really enjoy tiktok. My feed is curated enough over time that I only see stuff I'm genuinely interested in, comedy, science, tech, fitness and ofcourse skimpy dancing ladies. I do not suffer from the so called propaganda on it.

I agree that tiktok melts brains of teenagers, but so does Instagram reels, facebook and YouTube shorts. So that isn't a tiktok issue in itself anymore.

Oh yeah, I also read xiii. Not sure which one I prefer though. Difficult choice.

I like tasty gourmet food. But I also like junk.

I genuinely like a big Mac or a domino pizza. Are they as good as a gourmet burger or a wood oven pizza? Not even close. Can I enjoy them regularly? Absolutely.

My grandfather for sure. No way he would be able to understand the current cultural climate. He basically died from getting worked up about stuff the entire time in the late 90s. I'm 100% sure he never stopped rolling around.

Lived in Japan for more than 2 decades. Never saw one.

Japanese cities have a surprising lack of green tbh.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of Largo Winch. It reads like a James bond thriller. Great characters, great art and absolutely thrilling stories.

Or even better, donate to wikipedia. I know I just did.

I use a seedbox abroad and secure ssh to transfer stuff to my own server. Don't see what additional security a vpn would give me.

I'm traveling to the US mainland for the first time in my life in a few weeks.

I am not overly stressed about privacy, but I have read that US immigration can really overstep their boundaries. Are there any simple specific steps to take on my devices to protect my privace when going through US border control?

Remove my main accounts from my phone/tablet and use dummy accounts? Or just removing my biometrics?

 

I love the content posted here. As someone that has recently started dabbling in AI image Gen, it would be an amazing learning tool to see a) which model was used to generate the image and b) which prompt was given. With a) being most interesting imo.

Is there any reason this is not required?

(hope it's OK to post this here, didn't see anything in the rules about it)
