  • Don’t let this discourage you.

    You can self host on your local network just fine and never portforward which is what exposes it to the outside.

    I don’t need to watch tv or upload pictures to my server outside of my home. Its perfectly useable.

    When you are ready and feel more confident you can setup your own wireguard vpn and only expose that.

    Then Your device can connected to that vpn tunnels inside and can acces everything like home.

    Currently without vpn your device is at risk every time it connects to a network you don’t own. A third party vpn is not a guarantee your data is safe either. Your home vpn though means all your outside the home networking is fully encrypted and outsiders cant even detect your home adresses is running a vpn to hack. (No ping unless you have the key)




  • Can absolutely, should without further context? Hard no.

    If they pose an actual threat you have a right to defend your family. Thats an entirely different then they should be hurt as payback.

    Mentally ill people are not fucking around. They are also not finding out because they don’t always understand what they did or why others reacted, They just need help.

    Actually i think you might be one of those people.

    My kids have like all kids acted inappropriately in public at times, and i don’t want to know how you would respond to it if they accidentally invaded your personal space in the process.



  • How do you know this is a pervert and not just an awkward confused elder?

    It could have been a pervert yes, thats why you get up and tell them off. Make it clear that they’re being inappropriate.

    Public shaming is incredibly effective in altering future behaviour.

    But you don’t actually know their motives.

    I also don’t think the old man is pretending anything, it’s seems to be his son who is doing that and talked to the media.

    Personally i think that son should realise dad is at a stage where they should not go outside on their own.


  • I am worried for you repeatedly concluding that violence is the only way to send a message of disapproval.

    You can use your voice, you can use verbal signs like getting up and closer, without touching. Showing that you are ready to physically defend your child if the stranger does not back off right now. There is a huge realm of interaction between “letting it pass” and “violence”

    The message the child receives is, someone randomly invaded my personal space and my parent got very upset with this person.

    What message does it send to a child to respond to any socially wrong interaction with instant violence.

    Being a parent though i can understand the sudden emption causing a violent outbursts. But at least these parents understand after the fact that they could responded better.




  • There is no “real” answer to your question, its philosophical and we can at most find a potential truth but may never know the truth.

    Disclaimer out of the way i will take you on a small (summarised) story, of an idea i have thought lots about.

    The human brain is composed of 2 sub parts as most people know. Each part is just bundles of neurons but different bundles of neurons have specialised in different functions, From this set of brain function to left or right brain is constructed and then from the combined total of that left and right brain it emerges into a human/mamal mind.

    While one mind, the sides can operate individually, if the thin connection between then is lost. This important for the pattern, it also possible demonstrates how a half can be conscious on its own. So your current conciousness is actualy 2 conciousness working in tanden. At least.

    Modern research has suggested each brain side is actually also composed of 2 parts themselves.

    So 1 human mind emerges from 2 (conscious?) brainbits, which on their own emerge from 2 (concious?) brainbits, who on their own emerge from bundles of neurons that perform individual functions.

    This is the pattern… But in reverse.

    Your talking about reincarnation.

    My argument about brains was rooted in science till now. The pattern will remain but from here on its pure philosophy.

    Why would the pattern stop. If my mind is emergent of half minds emergent to even smaller minds. Then i am part of the chain of complexity. If i work together with other bright people and organise that i too become part of a greater complexity. Just like my brainlobes are for me.

    So could there not already be a higher entity Somewhere that is as complex to us as entire humanity is to a single brain cell. Where our developed minds ARE the brain cells.

    An adjacent story.

    If i was “god” and there was nothing around, what would i do? I guess at some point i would split myself into 2 and then from interaction between us things that are more interesting then nothing can be created.

    Till we are bored then we split again… and split again… split again… its division an smaller echo of a all knowing singularity. I have a theory i call the maximalisation of reality. More interactions means more complexity, more potential, more stuff.

    Put these stories together and you can Imagine a model. Where you and some of the people you frequently deal with are actually all the same higher level one, which i guess we could call an angel with understanding that its not a perfect consciousness itself. As this angel may togetherness with a few other angels make a higher level one…

    So who are you actually?

    If you are your brain lobes emerging into you.

    Then the first level of higher consciousness is the humans it emerges from.

    You where always you, but you where also always the people around you, and you where always all layers of higher consciousness.

    The one level higher consciousness may grow and shrink in the human minds it emerges from (or do we emerge from it, idk) thats not different from the human mind where braincells die an grow every day.

    I guess that was the jist of it… hope it was helpful to your spiritual journey!



  • Analog clocks are just a better analog for the passing of time.

    Cant argue with this.

    But

    what do these numbers mean?

    Is what i faintly ask myself when i do look at a analog clock.

    In digital, the numbers are just numbers, 9:42 is 9:42 while in analog 9 can mean 9 or 45.

    “It is almost a quarter before 10” is a sentence i would need to think twice to understand even when well pronounced from a vocal clear distance.

    Pretty sure it all depends on what your used to and dealing with a delay when facing the “other” formulation. No real winners.



  • Is that really that different?

    The article doesn’t go into any length to explain the technology. But assuringly its just an encrypted passcode created with an algorithm using measured face data.

    Crafting a secure reliable personal id based on pure visual appearance has been tricky and when this came out i disliked it but it was clearly a feat.

    What is the story here?

    Google trusting this technology?

    Them adding age verification to it?

    I am just confused what makes this enough of something to write/post it.
