Mijn week was wel oké.

M’n rug ging weer wat beter, dus da’s goed.

Ik ben zelf nog scholier en doe een eindexamen volgende week, namelijk die van Wiskunde B. Voordat men gaat vragen, ik heb een tussenjaar waarbij ik maar 1(!) vak volg op VWO VAVO. Dit is omdat ik Computer Science wil studeren en daarvoor Wiskunde B nodig heb.

Wiskunde b eindexamen is op 23 mei en ik voel de spanning echt wel toenemen. M’n cijfers zijn best wel goed (8,9, 8,3 en 8,1), maar alsnog voel ik zenuwen. Afgelopen week begon ik met leren en opeens lukten veel opgaven niet meer, waardoor ik weer onzekerder ben geworden.

Maar ja. Zo gaat dat nou soms. Op het ene moment haal je een 8 en daarna ben je alles vergeten en kun je niets.

Oja, ik ging zaterdag weer sporten en opeens schoot het weer in m’n rug, dus heb ik de rest van de dag op bed gelegen, omdat de pijn te groot was om te lopen :(

Gelukkig was het de dag daarna bijna helemaal weg. Gister heb ik m’n week afgesloten met een leuke voetbalwedstrijd (uit) in Waalwijk, waarbij de sfeer top was, relaxed voetbal en gezellige middag met m’n mede supporters.

Ik begin wel:

Geen lekkere week gehad… Last van m’n rug bij diep in- en uitademen, maar gelukkig wordt dit wel minder en voel ik het nu alleen maar als ik lig en niet meer wanneer ik normaal sta / zit.

Daarnaast ben ik gisteravond in Rotterdam, de Kuip geweest om m’n Zwolse voetbalteam aan te moedigen, maar helaas eindigde dat in een 5 - 0 verlies. Nou ja, was wel erg gezellig in de bus. Buschauffeur was jarig en trakteerde iedereen met gratis hapjes en we kregen een gratis rondje bier of cola. Daarnaast zat er een erg leuk, oud vrouwtje naast me waar ik gezellig mee heb gekletst op de heen- en terugreis.

Heeft iemand trouwens nog tips bij hospiteren? Ik heb momenteel tussenjaar, maar ga volgend jaar studeren. Daarom begin ik nu m’n zoektocht naar kamers.

Lmao, why do you even need to verify your humanity?

Hmmm… Maybe it’s to prevent scripts from downloading / ripping content off their platform? That’s the only theory I can come up with. Although if it’s true, they don’t do a very good job at it, considering I’ve seen plenty of WebDL-1080p Netflix exclusive content on torrenting platforms.

tl;dr: Het gaat veel beter dan dat men door heeft en in de hele wereld wordt er extreem veel ingezet op verduurzaming en de energietransitie, ondanks dat velen (waaronder ik) het tegenovergestelde beeld hebben. Voor uitgebreide info moet je uiteraard de video ff kijken; duurt maar 15min.

Dit is ff wat positief nieuws ipv het constante doem-posten dat ik o.a. op Lemmy e.d. zie.

Does this eBook downloading thing affect the rest of the Archive? Like, will the entire archive be affected or just the OpenLibrary part of the Archive?

Holy shit, it’s almost unbelievable what lengths some people will go to earn a little bit more money.

Because that’s what ultimately the goal is, right? To attract more American viewers and therefore earn more money from the broadcasts. This sounds just as stupid as the ‘Beneliga’ competition, which was supposed to merge the Dutch and Belgium football competitions.

Yeah, I mean, I:

• Eat at least three times per day (breakfast, lunch and dinner)
• Exercise three times per week (in the gym, lifting weights)
• Sleep at least 7 or 8 hours per night
• Go outside every day
• Have a skincare routine (although it’s not much)
• Brush my teeth twice per day (after breakfast and before going to sleep)

I’m on PC and I haven’t noticed anything changed. Literally. I don’t notice any bugs nor have I noticed a sudden improvement of my graphics. It seems to me that the 15gb that Steam downloaded, was just full of 0’s and don’t do anything.

Edit: Nevermind, apparently the new quests and items are part of the update, so in that case I have definitely noticed something lol.

Tip: if you have an Android TV, you can install SmartTube as an alternative, privacy-friendly YouTube client. It has no ads and sponsorblock integration

Honestly, I’m not really excited about the past couple of major Nextcloud releases.

Mainly because there’s still one big issue for small-scale Nextcloud servers: performance.

Mainly the web UI is still too slow for me to properly use, which is why I don’t use it at all (unless I have to update an app).

It’s a bit disappointing that they’re mainly focused on the large enterprise customers instead of small hobbyists like me, but it’s still understandable; after all, their income is mainly from the enterprise customers, not from selfhosters.

I also don’t really like how they’ve jumped on the AI hypetrain instead of improving performance. But once again, I guess this generates more income for them than focusing on other things like improving performance.

I use it to manage my documents, backup my photos from my phone to my server and access all my files from any other device. Basically Nextcloud is my replacement for OneDrive.

Additionally, I have used it in the past to collaborate on various group projects which require documents. For example, I had to make a presentation with some other people and I could create a PowerPoint in Nextcloud, send a share link to others and then we could edit the PowerPoint in realtime with Nextcloud + Collabora, which is pretty cool. It’s the only FOSS alternative (at least as far as I’m aware of) that can compete with Microsoft 365 / Google Workspaces.

I personally really hope that we can get Der Klassiker in the UCL final. Bayern vs Dortmund, just like in 2011/2012. Hopefully with a ridiculous choreography prior to the match, just like back then lol.

PSG and ManCity are both literally just representatives of the government of Qatar

Regrowing / regenerating certain body parts.

This could theoretically be done with stemcell stuff, but it’s not there yet. However, when we finally reach the point where we can infinitely regenerate our body cells, we’ll become effectively “ammortal”; unable to die due to natural causes (such as illness), but we will still die from other people (for example, a bullet to the head)

Besides that, I think nuclear fusion would be an incredible development if we can finally harness it to power our homes.

I don’t think, I just do.

I usually keep an end goal in sight; for example, I sometimes dread going to the gym, but I always remember that my goal is to stay fit, have a healthy body and exercising is an important part of that. By sticking to my goal, I maintain my discipline and go to the gym 3 times per week.

Another example is school homework; in my case, my math homework is something I don’t enjoy, but I remind myself that I need the math certificate in order to enroll for a Computer Science degree at an university. Therefore, I keep pushing myself to study math and get good grades (which so far has worked pretty well)

I don’t use a VPN for Reddit and while I have another account, it’s not for ban evasion, but rather to have my nsfw activity separate from my personal account.

No fucking idea what’s happened here, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Reddit decided to use AI or some shit to regulate the rules, resulting in random bans.

JVT038, 28 days ago

Yup, just did that!

JVT038, 28 days ago

It’s a sound theory, however I am not banned from any subreddit as far as I’m aware of, so ban evasion can’t have been the reason.

Although, as I mentioned in another comment, I have another account, but that’s mainly used for my nsfw stuff.

JVT038, 27 days ago

Nothing. My other account was only for lurking and I didn’t post anything; no comments, no posts, nothing.

I only post / comment on my main, but that’s now no longer possible lol.
