Depends where you go. My Czech bank card is a debit card with a number on it that you can use like a credit card. Dutch banks don’t have this and we use different online payment methods. I never really needed a credit card for anything (until I traveled in France) so the price to have one is not worth it.
You’re not supporting development, you’re supporting a rich guy getting richer:
Interesting to note that the Mozilla CEO earned nearly as much ($5.6 M) as Mozilla received in donations ($7 M).

It’s not that easy when those people are your parents
I still feel I need to hide when I am interested in something. Am I not the only one?
Never. Had to Google what it even is. I had something similar once as a child.
None of them seem up to date on public transport when I tried, which makes it kind of useless
If you’re not a wage slave and have a bigger home, think of all the hobbies and interests you can pursue, new things to learn, time to meet people and space to host them, charity work… And you have the energy for things that a job would drain from you otherwise. I think life would be drastically different.
I doubt that many people have a car
99 percent of the country have access to a DAB±compatible receiver
That’s surprising. I didn’t think many people still listen to radio.
For me Indonesia was the worst, I had constant stomach problems. Vietnam just some light issues, other countries were mostly fine actually.
It shouldn’t be needed but if you want extra privacy, you can try torsocks.
I got food poisoning at least 4 times in the couple of months I was in Asia. I even found a place where they stored their “fresh” ingredients next to the toilet. I still have stomach issues >10 years later and I think my Asia trip may be related to that.
It depends on the location. I admit I’ve been to McDonald’s in Asia, just because my stomach couldn’t take the pain anymore. The price of a small menu was the same as a full meal elsewhere, but they treat you like you’re in a fancy place.
As much as I want to avoid McDonald’s, they are (were?) often the only fair-priced food place when you’re in a large, touristic area.
Travel, nothing tech related
Fwiw, my blog’s statistics say Linux is around 10% and I know a lot of browsers identify themselves as running on Windows when they’re not, so I wonder how it’s measured.
Not to mention storage space. Like most people their generation, my parents have a garage and an attic. All this extra space to hoard stuff
I vaguely remember (but can’t find it right now) that the PDF format became open source at some point and free alternatives came out for PDF editing. And that was already back in the 2000s when people still printed documents (which is what PDF was originally meant for).
In modern times, every browser/OS can read PDF, every text editor can export to PDF, nobody prints physical documents and there are free alternatives – so why do they still exist and who is paying?
I haven’t used it in a while but Aeroinsta was good and probably safe (despite their shady website). Gets rid of unnecessary stuff like ads and allows downloading.
