I've been rewatching some of my old videos for something I'm working on and wow ... they are boring as hell. I can't believe that my channel ever took off with these early snoozefest videos.

Even I need to watch them at 2x speed, and I made them!!

This one in particular, I remember being "emotional" and "edgy". Uh ... no. It's slow and monotone.

They're all like this. In fact, this one is better than most.

@notjustbikes I really like this video. A clear story, told in a calm manner. Just like traffic that doesn't cause too many catastrophic accident, because it moves calmly. This is how it should be.

@notjustbikes On the other hand, in a recent video of yours, "More Lanes are (Still) a Bad Thing", I found your voice a bit forced, like you are trying to spice up your message. To my non-American ear, it is a bit annoying. But I may not be part of your intended audience.

@toxi That looks weird. The top half of the mountain sloped, the bottom half vertical. What could have caused this difference?

ik lees nu 'Anomalie' van Hervé le Tellier, over een vliegtuig dat in een hagelstorm komt en daarna niet 1 maar 2 keer landt.... alle passagiers zijn verdubbeld. Wat nu? Het leek me een spannend boek, maar het is eerder filosofisch.

I'll use this simple USB dongle, which you can get for around $30.

I'd be worried that they "jump the shark," but one could argue that the entire show has been everyone doing exactly that, and it's been AWESOME, so I hope they keep it up.

@brendan @bookstodon Dune isn't sf. It's fantasy.

@icastico @brendan @bookstodon Some "chosen one" with special powers is going to save the world, or whatever. That's pure fantasy of the most boring kind.

@icastico @brendan @bookstodon The story is fantasy. The "hero" is the stereotype of a fantasy protagonist. The dressing doesn't change that.

Multilingualism is one of the founding principles that make Europe unique.

With 24 official languages, the EU is a cultural kaleidoscope!

On the European Day of Languages, let's come together to celebrate this richness!

Speaking languages is the key to:

  • opening up new worlds
  • broadening your horizons
  • forging deeper connections

This post is in English, but we're fluent in all languages!

Tiny Privacy Tip 🔒✨:

If you are ready to step up your communication’s privacy, I wrote a comparative review of 4 instant messaging services offering end-to-end encryption:

Signal, Threema, iMessage, and WhatsApp

For each I describe what data they disclose collecting, what data is encrypted, and what data is not:

https://controlaltdelete.technology/articles/the-importance-of-using-messaging-apps-with-end-to-end-encryption-which-ones-to-use-and-why.html

Choose what suits your needs the best, but choose wisely 💬​✨

@pebbe@mastodon.social avatar

@Em0nM4stodon I don't use Signal because it doesn't work on tablet. I don't trust facebook or apple. So I guess I'll have a look at Threema.
