I like a combination of New Years Resolutions that a) remove negative habits but also b) add postive goals. One of the positive goals I want to do this year is watch more movies.

The list is as follows: Read more...

About half a year ago, I saw a youtube video by Savah Davis Baker called The Internet Used to be a Place. It was a phenomenal video about how the internet was treated. Growing up I had a computer room, my dad’s office dedicated to the computer. If I wanted to access the internet we had to do it on that computer. When I was done with computer, I left the room and disconnected. Read more...

Can’t go up the hill With Gym 1 defeated I continued to explore the town. There’s a museum with a scientist that mentions something about fossil research, probably something to note for later!

Over the last few months, I’ve been grossly aware of the how algorithms have been shaping my life. Content being directly streamed to my brain with no friction whatsoever. It’s been taking away from my attention span, my focus, my enjoyment and my well being. When I got into homelabbing and self-hosting, I thought it was going to be my solution to this. No more corporations, no more algorithms, I can collect the content I want to watch and listen to. Read more...

Overview We live in an age of software as a service (SaaS). For a monthly fee, these software give their users access to the conveniences of their product. Services like Netflix and Spotify give their users access to petabytes of content without the struggle of hosting or carrying that content themselves. The convenience is undeniable, but not without their concerns. Focusing on Spotify, their revenue stream for their artists isn’t small artist friendly, mainly benefitting labels and popular artists.
