    How much money in the bank would make you happy?

    Those are some amazing yields lad! I thought super cheap welsh property was a thing of the past lol Guess I was wrong. I remember there was a time when you were supposed to be able to pick up terraced houses for like £5k in some parts of wales. Mount Ash I think it was called if I remember...

    Degenerate Saturday Gambling

    Online Casino industry has always fascinated me. If it's outside of jurisdictional regulations, I always think to myself what's the catch? Besides being completely swamped with the Italian Mafia. Not sure how actual criminal empires would react to random outsider giving them some competition.

    How much money in the bank would make you happy?

    Are you in the UK too? Assuming you brought your house prior to brexit, I'm not sure if it's supposed to be worth it anymore since then. Back then you could hire good, and I mean really good builders from East Europe for dirt cheap. Now you're easily looking at over 60% labour costs and i'm...

    How much money in the bank would make you happy?

    Yeah you might be right. I suppose part of why I don't feel particularly thrilled is because of what happened to me in the last month or so... Me and my partner have been hoping to get our own place since the turn of the year. Since March we've had our eye on a dream two bedroom apartment...

    How much money in the bank would make you happy?

    I just made a little over £500k, that's about $675k USD. Which is now sitting in a bank account. When I was 18 i would never have dreamed i'd have this much cold, hard cash in the bnak and yet 3 years later, here I am. I thought I would be happy and content but i'm not. I know some friends who...

    Beward of the Yoga Master 'Sadhguru'

    I follow an excellent Blog by an award winning journalist who's been the inspiration behind a nber of Netflix shows on cults around the world. She's conducted a number of investigations on Indian Babas (amongst other cultish organisations and persons including the US) including Yogi Bhajan, Amma...

    If I lived in the US I would totally buy one of these

    Yes, of course you can. Don't have to be boring, generic looking smart phones either. Two compabies i'm following right now are GPD that make the worlds smallest (high quality) laptops and other cool stuff like Playstation Portal style handheld computers and Planet Comm that make touchscreen PDA...

    Android or Apple Phones?

    Right now mainly iPhones for day to day and important work. My household has spent close to $30k on Apple devices over the past 8 years or so but I personally think i've just about had it with Apple - the constant redesigning and inevitable relearning that appear with every operating system...

    If I lived in the US I would totally buy one of these

    It looks like it's already happening - GrapheneOS maybe killed off

    What is your favourite Web Page archiving site?

    If we're talking about browsing, and adding your own pages what public service do you like to use?

    What are your most favourite WordPress alternatives?

    I guess to great extent it would depend on the types of clients you get. I don't do this full time, it's primarily to help me with research for something else i'm doing and make a little extra lunch money. WP doesn't have a great reputation all in all to some aspiring entreprenuer and so on but...

    BBC to sue Perplexity.ai over Copyright Infringement

    It’s crazy to think that a media giant is at such massive odds with an ai leader actually. I wonder what all the conspirqcy theorists would think of this. Clearly all the elitist companies are not always on the same page it appears Read more

    What are your most favourite WordPress alternatives?

    Basically because they’re familiar with it - as a brand name and also through previous experience and exposure to it. There main question was ‘if I don’t like it, can I switch back to WordPress?’ 🙄 I even went to the trouble to make a WO based replica prototype complete with moving parts to give...

    Vacation Time - Summer is sneaking up fast, anything fun this year?

    Nah, my brother is away right now with his wife. GF is going to see family abroad. Parents will probably be going down south to visit family too at some point. So I am actually looking forward to a bit of peace and quiet at home for a change.

    ⚠️ Is Google about to destroy the web?

    Wondering if anyone else is noticing a sudden scarcity of youtube and other third-party tutorials for basic guides in place of AI results? Is it Google or pure coincidence?

    No More Safe Haven for Privacy? Switzerland Drifts Toward a Surveillance State

    I’d say it’s fine searching publicly available information, probably not wise to take any rash action like rounding up an angry mob against some suspicious new neighbour though. But the main point was that a lot of this information is not supposed to be used in the way it is like mentioned...

    No More Safe Haven for Privacy? Switzerland Drifts Toward a Surveillance State

    Yea of course the worst kind of people deserve everything they get. But there are lots of examples of people or even organisations in a position of power misusing such information. Sometimes even downright illegally, as such -...

    No More Safe Haven for Privacy? Switzerland Drifts Toward a Surveillance State

    There are tonnes of successful service providers that at least market themselves around Switzerland being a sanctuary for privacy protection - proton, swisscows, tresorit etc. I wonder what a hard law against it all would now mean for them. I’m quite happy using Posteo and Mailfence for all my...
