  • Not to minimise this, I think it’s all the worse when considering that the rest of the world is facing VERY similar problems and some still refuse to see it. Hell, Romania narrowly avoided electing our own Trump. Poland wasn’t so lucky. Hungary’s Trump’s been active for years now, and so on, and so forth.

    And while it’s understandable why some defend themselves by ignoring reality, ignoring a random douchebag on the bus is one thing, ignoring the rebirth of Fascism is something completely different.



  • I started seeing this from a different perspective: if the people who’ve told me this were thinking of themselves and others like them as examples of fulfillment when referring to my potential, then am I friggin’ glad I fell off!

    Wanna know why? Because I know for a fact most of them were miserable until the day they died. Well, not all of them are dead, but of those that died… you get it… My point, at least I’ve had some damned fine moments while doing it my way! I won’t regret the story I’ll leave behind.





  • Well, that would be nice, but it’s still not all of them. Unfortunately, I own a Zenfone 10 as my main driver, and Asus have not released the unlock tools they promised since Zenfone 9. And, afaik, this is applicable to a lot of the top producers, with a few exceptions.

    I can’t wait for the new regulations to properly settle in, hopefully we’ll start seeing full unlocks with the upcoming generations…








  • Jesus, yeah, I have a lot of friends in that position… I was lucky enough to be able to quit before things became outright quicksand and am looking into completely different professions at this point. I don’t want to touch a computer for anything other than fucking about in my free time. Maybe some data entry, but that’s it. At least the diversity somewhat negates the impact of just how dire things are, I guess.

    I honestly don’t know how we’ll get ourselves out of this one if things keep going the way they have.
