  • I had this conversation about privacy a week ago with a colleague. Not sure if it matters but she’s 21. She’s addicted to TikTok and was wondering why I did not use it.

    I told her, I don’t trust the makers of it and don’t trust the country the app comes from (China, CCP). I half explained it was because of privacy issues. She looked me dead in the eyes and said “I don’t have anything to hide”.

    So I simply said something along lines of;

    “of course you don’t. The messages you sent to your boyfriend are not of intimacy things right? Certain pictures you send. Political conversations, your behavior patterns, religion. None of that matters right? Until it can be all used against you. If you care enough, I recommend to just research a couple of things up. Like for example Facebooks Cambridge scandal and Meta’s meddling with politics. Now imagine that from your own government”.

    But of course, she shrugged it off and said she did not care.







  • Holy shit the hate E33 is getting is completely ridiculous, as Reddit does. Whether you go to the Silksong, KCD2, Death Stranding, Dispatch, Arc Raiders, or any other games subreddit that was nominated for any award about half the comments saying E33 is trash, overhyped, and their game deserved to win instead.

    This is why I don’t care anymore about what other people think and don’t check the communities of games. I just hope the game, I like the most wins. If it happens, great! If it does not, sad but that’s okay. That’s life.

    I just don’t get why they need to shit on other people and the games they like just because their game didn’t win.

    Because it is the internet and nowadays people only think about themselves. “I like this game, I want and need this game to win”. The internet allows people to be sort of anonymous and that brings the worst out of people (because more often than not, there’s no consequences of the actions when it is written anonymously).




  • If Netflix buys everything can I only buy one streaming service again?

    There’s no need to buy any of these streaming service that gives shit quality for expensive price and gives shit service like not allowing to share account or even casting to TV (yes, Netflix removed the ability to cast from phone to tv).

    Just Torrent with VPN or get Stremio with Real-Debtid €16/6month. Stremio with the correct add-ons has everything. If you just want purely anime, get Hayase with VPN.







  • Emulation ≠ Piracy (pirating ROMs is another story…)

    Oh yeah, I know hah. But considering the instance I’m on, you can, I assume already know how I obtain most of the games.

    But if you’re using EmuDeck, if you install it for her, it’s pretty simple after that - all the games just show up as games in Steam Library.

    Yeah, I use EmuDeck on my own Deck but there are some hiccups when it comes to using the emulators thru Gaming Mode (bit of laggy, sometimes the games won’t start). Usually start the games through Desktop Mode. Did not manage to get the game to show up on the Steam Library, for some reason I just could not get that to work and due not enough time (work…) got a bit lazy and thought ‘never mind’ lol.
