Don't set your date only to 1970-01-01. Set it wildly wrong every time, lie about your gender, etc

At least most European banks are happy to cut out the American middlemen (Visa and Mastercard) since they're eating part of the cost, and we already have the infrastructure in place and working, it's called "instant SEPA bank transfer", most newer accounts offer it for free. The problem is the lack of political will to accelerate that indipendence and to stop hemorraging money (roughly 0.5% per transaction!)

Then as people learn to use it they'll hopefully also stop using Paypal (another American company) when sending money to someone, or getting tracked in general every single time they use their debit card.

Is it not possible that how something is made also elicits emotions and thoughts?

Installing Koreader which can do a million things, but also playing around with terminal access, python, bash scripting, neofetch, usb-network, SSH. For older kindles: the screensaver hack was my first reason to ever jailbreak one.

Hopefully I can save you the 10min of frustration I just had 😄 I also just discovered that Android 13 and above cannot downgrade an app anymore without uninstalling first...first world problems, I know.

I was interested in the "non-traditional" fps of Fury Road so here's the relevant part from wikipedia, they actually used less than 24 for most of the movie.

According to Seale, "something like 50 or 60 percent of the film is not running at 24 frames a second, which is the traditional frame rate. It'll be running below 24 frames because George, if he couldn't understand what was happening in the shot, he slowed it down until you could ... Or if it was too well understood, he'd shorten it or he'd speed it up back towards 24. His manipulation of every shot in that movie is intense."[75] The Washington Post noted that the changing frame rate gives the film an "almost cartoonishly jerky" look.[76]

Or, they have a commercial interest or are paid by someone who does. Fucking losers either way
