In Hong Kong, "Hongkongers love working"

There's a typhoon? We work.
There's a rainstorm? We work.
There's a political conflict? We work.
There's an apocalypse? We'll probably still go to work.

So whenever people from other countries complain about work hours being too long or retirement age being raised, we just laugh at them. And then continue working.

Half the people here are trying to de-google

I prefer flex

Hold your key's metal part and touch some other metal that is earthed to discharge yourself.

By holding the key, you provide a way bigger surface area for transferring the charge, so it won't hurt you.

I setup my own matrix instance and ran a few bridges on it, so I don't need WhatsApp thanks

My website, which might be the most impractical informative website in history.

The idea started 3 years ago. I'm still irregularly updating it. Every time I see it I feel proud of myself.

Bowser Revolution

My dad still believes the entire Y2K problem was a scam. How do I convince him?

This appeals to Hongkongers only, but I miss 頭條新聞 (News Headlines) (I made up this translation)

Despite its name, this was a sarcastic show aired on RTHK, an official government channel. It talks about a lot of events, poor decisions and wrong-doings of the government in a funny way. Unfortunately it was shut down in 2020, by the government.

Our democracy and freedom have been declining since then.

Here's a playlist of them archived

I can setup bridges, so I can communicate with any other messaging systems (whatsapp, discord) within matrix

My Endeavour OS has Plasma, GNOME, Xfce, bspwm and Hyprland on it. I haven't really had any problem with them.

5th grade, in a 3-day camp with friends

I also saved that Firefox add-ons post! It has told me a lot of very useful add-ons.

This is my day 1 username. I'm not leaving it.

Asians sometimes work a bit too hard.

I'm a Hongkonger, and we have an internal joke within the entirety of Hong Kong which is "Hongkongers love working"

I edit my comment, but still keep the original wrong one in the edit. I want to admit what I did wrong.

You can set up bridges to link to your other messengers. Then you will only need Matrix to be able to reply to everyone.

I started doing that a few years ago. It's now part of my habits.

You can always install them from Arch or AUR. I didn't just merge all the Endeavour images into one to install them.

Matrix is FOSS, Synapse (Matrix server) is FOSS, bridges are FOSS. The only thing stopping most people is a server that can run 24/7

I know I don't know enough but I'm too tired to learn more

Woomy

But I haven't played it for like half a year at this point because I went to play the woomy game instead

The first game I ever played was Mario Kart DS. I have been a Mario fan ever since.

I have a second monitor at the upper left of my primary one

You login to your account with the bridge, so the bridge can pretend to be you.
