Should I try nix?
Extreme conservatism is as bad as wokism and it amounts to the same underlying trait: being judgemental of others' opinions and life choices specifically when they have no meaningful impact on your life.
Conservatives are still cutural central planners and still infringe on the NAP.
Airfry everything
Until a few months ago I was extremely skeptical of AI, thought it was overhyped, etc.
I started using it more and more for work and it changed my mind. It's still overhyped but I now recognize how transformative it is.
It won't replace all intelectual human labor as many claim. It's a useful tool, a companion.
In the 60s/70s, the best programmers were the ones that could memorize more and consult reference manuals faster.
After the 00s, the best programmers are the ones that can google the answers faster.
Now, in the 20s, the best programmers will be the best prompters.
It's important to recognize paradigm shifts. Adapt or die.
Me using the Tor browser to listen to music on youtube because youtube blocks VPN endpoints but not Tor exit nodes


It's absolutely wild that you can't use YouTube with a VPN IP while not signed in. Internet is getting completely unusable. I rather not use YouTube than turn off VPN or god forbid, create a Google account.
Note: this applies as well to all other FOSS youtube apps and frontends like LibreTube, NewPipe, yt-dlp. They also get broken.
The first thing I do when I try out a new app is go straight to the Settings page and go through every option. This is not weird
Not a good day for me. My family was sick last week, I thought I would survive it, but no, I feel like shit today, can't even celebrate the 100k.
I also bought a new kingsize bed for me and my wife, but can't use it because the fucking bedstead it too big to pass through the stairs or the bedroom windows. Might have to make a hole in the stairs ceiling just make room to pass that thing.
This pump is fake and gay and everyone who is taking it seriously as a "bull market pump" is retarded.
There's no real change in adoption that justifies it. On-chain activity is a ghost town.
Price is pumping for the exact same reason DOGECOIN is pumping: bitcoin is still mainly traded as a speculative memecoin, despite whatever maxis try to paint it on their podcasts.
Rant over. Until we meet again.
