dead or alive?⌗

so a bit of life updates first if you’re wondering. lately i escaped the treacherous city of gurgaon somehow alive after being a contractual 2 month employee of a company, who realised that i am evil enough to help them catch more clients and flip up their competetor’s pokemons whenever i see them, that they offered me a return offer(hope they dont read this)(maybe i’ll remove this part and wont go in detail dm for my adventures). didnt had many friends there(like i have a ton here ready to hang out anytime) the ones i had either preferred to stay in their room or go back to their womb place(ik they aint reading this too). so i had to pass time on my own and how fun is it binge watch 8 seasons of dexter isnt it. i explored almost every big movie theatre there, watched a movie alone in a single hall, experienced imax, rode the 4dx seats, even watched some “comedies”, watched almost every single film released during those two months. went to many overpriced cafes, ordered many overpriced drinks and food realising i can make them on my own too so i did, ranging from mexican bowls to blueberry smoothie bowls to “some-random-shitass-name”-latte, mastered the art of playing foosball, bargaining, paying rents and whatnot hell i even joined gym to kill boredom.

hall 1 aint much fun as told, campus seems boring now too as i am in a superposition of my peak social anxiety & idc much attitude. with people distributed, different schedules and them with other friends i dont got much to do, most of my day i work on my paper, study(yes) and just existing. classes ain’t fun too dont know most of them to sit together with. also isnt it fun when you try everything to indulge with friends but turns out you’re at the bottom of the list.

privacy and right to privacy⌗

pairing all the above traits with social media what do we get? we get consumers. i had time to reflect on my spendings and who i worship. by some super analysis i realised that i am a consumer next thing i did watched fight club. i then went on to my 2021 mode, when i first about tutanota and had a skiff email address(rip skiff). i started researching more on security part and how analytics shaped my life. i have bought many unnecessary things in the past due to my over indulgence on social media, i dont wanna go into much details as this is not a tech blog post yet. so i tried and tested out the concepts of the following:

  1. emails
  2. vpns
  3. dns
  4. rooted phone functionalities(never bricked my phone)
  5. decentralisation and aliases
  6. search engines(hell i even tried kagi)
  7. browsers
  8. ordered an aeropress

TODO: complete if mood

tho this won’t be a film blog(will write one in the near future)
