RIP to the Minsk fridge my granny used until 2022. Built end of 70s, that thing was continuously in use for 50 years.

Oh yeah this one was really bad.

Both are a naked lunch level mindfuck. Don't treat it as a book, but rather as a stream of consciousness on the acid trip. Don't try to make any sense, just ride the wave.

That's exactly what I started doing this year. I've read 32 books already and it gives me much more satisfaction than watching stupid "like & subscribe to my patreon" videos.

Not sure if best, but:

• cleaning the kitchen in the evening. I listen to podcasts or music while doing it, and the mornings are easier as I don't have to confront mountains of dirty dishes.
• reading - I try to dedicate at least one hour a day and read a book. I guess with general decline of the content on the Internet it got much easier to go offline.
• meditation and relaxation techniques - I started doing this as a teenager and thanks to hours I've put in I have no problems falling asleep. Even when I am high on caffeine I can relax my body during the night and wake in the morning not feeling like a zombie.

I have Dynalink DL-WRX36, running openwrt since day 0. Iirc it was 60 euro year ago. Everything works, wireguard too. No complaints. I believe there is openwrt stable build for it already, though I an still running snapshot as I am too lazy to update.

They collect minor things like search terms and app usage info. The rest is stored on the server only if you explicitly upload a photo or a recorded track or something similar. No collection of location data or WiFi networks etc. The telemetry can be blocked of course if you have such setup (VPN+pihole for example)

Mapy.cz are the best maps available on desktop and android. They use OSM as a source. There is some tracking but in this case it's worth the hassle.

Yeah it was nice. I didn't do the highway route because the kid wanted the child-friendly part, but still it was really nice to see so many people in the streets.

There were people coming from other cities as well, riding the whole night to get to Berlin on Sunday. Love it.

By the way, 32k sounds a lot, but in its heyday there were 200k people riding around. Even last year with 50k crowd it was completely different feeling, the inner city almost without cars.

The housing ages as well. Old houses will be torn down and new builds will be regulated to maintain the supply low.

Demographic will definitely also have impact, but so much money is tied in REITs that some sort of bailout is inevitable in case the prices crash.
