So long, and thanks for all the fish

If you’re into self hosting, Bytestash is very nice!

whatbox.ca has been good to me too. They expanded my storage for free during a server upgrade, which was very nice of them.

Inglourious Basterds.

However much I liked all the Tarantino flicks before this one, I just cannot get into Inglourious. Also, everything Tarantino made after that movie is also tainted by the same uneasy feeling I get. If pressed to guess why, I’d say he took the stories out of the ‘now’ and transported them to other times and places, which just does not seem to agree with me.

An entertaining biography dealing with corruption and greed, covered under a layer of snark.

Fun fact, during the same trip he also mentioned that doctors assisting abortions are hired killers.

Decadence and opulence will still only be a private jet trip away.

Funny how 8 years ago, people kept saying “don’t worry about Trump, there are checks and balances in place”. None of that talk this time around!

Fallout 4 survivor mode melee build. That game just won’t leave me alone!

One book I read predicted societal disruption for 2035, with a total collapse of nations around 2050. I found it overly dramatic at the time, but now, 15 years later, it seems we’re well ahead of that prediction.

“I think we are headed for major societal disruption within the next five years,” said Gretta Pecl, at the University of Tasmania. “[Authorities] will be overwhelmed by extreme event after extreme event, food production will be disrupted. I could not feel greater despair over the future.”
