The best hackers are the ones who never get caught.

Why would anyone need πfs, since you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially on Linux.

I’ll make my own RAM, with the help of AI.

Maybe pay them a visit.

Maybe "get up and travel to a different country" is not as simple as it sounds.

Feature request: friend-request-by-mail: Pay Friendster $1 to send a postcard with a unique QR code. I've seen something similar for user/address verification on a local community website (but it's free to send the postcard).

If I could afford that I wouldn’t need a social media app.

I shouldn't require international travel - over an ocean - to talk to my siblings on the internet on a social app.

Visits are great and all, but they require money and planning with more than one person. And I'm lucky - I can travel. Some folks can't go home - war sucks, poverty sucks, sickness sucks, busy work times suck, etc. If I were still in the US, I might not even get a chunk of time off work.

Travel is probably getting a little less likely considering the current situation with jet fuel as well.

"Hey I'm coming to visit you so we can be friends on Friendster 2.0! The flight was 1k so I hope you don't mind if I crash on your couch!"

So much bullshit, no wonder people are fed up with this whole “climate crisis” narrative.

I installed Transmission again.

Enjoy the ISOs!

Tldr: some dude venting, hope he feels better now.

Tldr; dude makes wrong choices one after the other and copes with it by being ok with being left behind. "I wrote my Msc on The Metaverse", ....

Links where called Pointers back then apparently.
