I have a very nice digital camera, but the thing is, I can pretty much take as many pictures as I want. SD cards are cheap, and i can fit thousands of pictures on just one card.
Knowing that you only have a very limited amount of shots and knowing how expensive film is really makes you think about every shot, and the quality of your work on average (per image) improves by quite some margin.
I also think that it improves your ability when using digital cameras as well, since the attention to detail and focus on quality carries over to digital photography as well.
Film cameras are great.

I honestly love the sea, and this would be my dream. The thing is, where am I supposed to get the money to stop working and studying and just leave everything behind?

Well yeah, but the number would be linearly proportional to the reach they have. That means that a person that is very popular is also blocked by a lot of people, and a person that nobody knows about might be blocked by zero. A person with two followers blocked by one is much worse than a person with 10,000 blocked by 10.
I just fear that the average person wouldn't be able to make this distinction.
Maybe a rating relative to the amount of reach you have could be a decent idea? Seems hard to implement fairly in my opinion.

To be frank, I've also gotten burnt whilst wearing sunscreen. But I also have to add that it's worse when I'm not wearing it.
So idk, I wouldn't say it's a scam, but I just try to limit my exposure to the 12 pm direct sun to avoid getting burnt.

That sounds really cool, but how exactly does that work, especially in a place like Germany? How do you get food or shelter? Where do you sleep? Do you shower, if so, where?

That was probably the dumbest shit the EU has done in a while, right behind chat control.

Oh yes, I heard about Reticulum just yesterday. Seems very interesting, but from what I understand, it cannot be used to browse the general internet, since you would need an exit node connected to that network, no?

To be completely frank, it depends which country you go to. But yes, for most developed countries, I would say this applies.

Yeah, I've heard that Germany is very... strict - to put it lightly - about freedoms that in other countries are taken for granted.
Also - for your own good - I hope you never have to deal with German bureaucracy.

I feel you. I also got myself a really nice keyboard. As a software developer, I type A LOT. I basically write almost all the code myself and only use AI as a very good (albeit non-deterministic) search engine.
I also have a ThinkPad I bought used on ebay and i love the keyboard on that too. Let's bring back typing and screw LLM slop.

C is and forever will be the best language. It might not be the safest, but it's the best. It's simple, the compiler is simple, it has very few "ideas" but at the same time it has a huge ecosystem which allows you to do pretty much anything you want with it. I'm not saying you have to write everything in C, but saying that "humans shouldn't write C" seems a bit overkill.

I don't know, I'm from Italy and generally this kind of communication is not used by the government a whole lot, but still... Maybe I just got lucky?

I have taken this picture, it's the first astrophotography picture I've ever taken. I don't know why it has that... tint? But anyway, we were trying to see the solar eclipse, but most of it was covered by a big cloud, so this is the best we got. https://blossom.primal.net/51b676c237da8605d81f9bd30be62f1dee53159c5248e7040ca2baeaa5284a57.jpg

Where I'm from, they're trying to install a (in their words) "Intelligent and centralized mass surveillance system" in train stations. They put up posters and everything, acting as if this was a positive project that should be endorsed by the public.
I - quite frankly - hate it.
The best thing is this: they're funding it with EU funds. The EU is paying for it.

Well, to be frank, the UK has not been a great government in terms of digital privacy lately. I honestly have no idea what this is, I've never gotten this, I use grapheneOS.
