“No Country for Old Men” feels like a movie from a previous era.

Yeah, well, you know, that’s just like, uh, your opinion, man.

I use Beeper to aggregate messaging from various platforms and for easy availability of text messages on my PC. It has a specific “Note to self” section that I’ve found useful for messaging myself.

At its core, Beeper is just a Matrix client with some pre-packaged bridges for common services (including SMS, MMS, RCS messages). You could probably do the same thing with an Element client.

I have to use a lot of static IP addresses, and I’d take this over what I normally deal with.

I miss the old days of Youtube where people made stuff for fun or because they were passionate about a topic, before the big Youtubers pushing shit out the door to get as many views as they can.

Monetization shifted the focus from niche hobbyist content to gimmicky shit that is tailored to get a bunch of views. When I see a thumbnail of someone with a weird facial expression, it’s my cue to look elsewhere.
