Tadate

Unless aliens kidnap my partner (or me1) there’s not a chance I’ll be in the dating scene soon, but if I were I’d definitely go somewhere overseas if I wanted to subject myself to that hell again.

There are a few advantages to that approach. It automatically makes you unusual and exotic, and depending on the country the women haven’t been as utterly poisoned by social media. I’d concentrate on somewhere with low social media use, low tattoo prevalence and low obesity.

Then I’d learn the language (relatively easy for me, if I want to do it2) and make it happen.

American women are basically undateable now due to social media-induced mental illness, tattoos, ridiculous levels of entitlement and obesity. It’s just about a crime to do that to yourself.

  1. Green alien girls are a-ok with me.
  2. Though I dislike talking to people in general, so I’m far better at learning to read languages.

Ad Del

Why I Switched to macOS After Using Windows for Nearly Two Decades.

Windows is a spyware-infested ad delivery system. Linux is ok but still not all that usable (and I use it daily in two different VMs, so yes I do know).

MacOS is the best of a bunch of bad choices. I also just bought an M4 Mac Mini and while it has less memory than my old system, it’s absurdly fast. Apple has really been killing it with their own chip design, which I did not expect when they initially announced their intent.

The M4 Mini is around twice as fast as my old system, and I had a high-end 2020 iMac previously. Pretty impressive. And unlike with Windows 11, I don’t see the first fucking ad anywhere in the OS.
