And I start doing some "investment". Gold is one part of the plan and it's already growing in value. That's a good start, I think

Then I got the hard question: When should I sell it? Too early I'll lose some profit, and too late I'll probably lose more.

Gosh, making money with money is so hard.

Recording everything to homebank and then notice I spent a lot of money this month.

I assume it's normal? Since a lot of things can be better and those expenses are one-time only. I don't have to buy a new nuc and monocular every month. And I expect the expenses in the next month will drop back to normal. I hope.

And just notice all my keyboard and mouse are Bluetooth only. I need to find a usb keyboard to install Linux.

Maybe I should subscribe to SLED? So when the system breaks, I can yell at them instead of blaming myself and try to fix it desperately?

Ordered an Intel NUC13ANHi7. Gonna make it as my current workstation, well, for work.

Razer really needs to think about their cooling system. Room temperature is currently 25C, and the fan is screaming at full speed, and the CPU is still overheating.

And when the laptop constantly overheats, the battery is going to start swelling up, like a balloon, but much worse. I have replaced the battery 2 times and really don't want to do it again. Especially the part of dealing with the broken battery, the energy in those broken batteries is really scary.

I just hope there is an app that can hijack the keyboard and screen to automatically convert my clear text into encrypted text before I send it, and decode it automatically when I receive it. No need to fancy e2e that kind of stuff. Just encryption.

I know there are a lot of things to watch out for when talking about encryption and keys. But in my humble opinion, simple encryption can prevent at least 50% of the unintended leaks. For the rest, you got fancy tools like E2E, rotational keys, etc.

Someone introduced Beeper to me: https://www.beeper.com

It can support 14 different IM apps and manage them in one app.

It's technically good, but I don't trust it, 1) not all IMs are e2e encryption, 2) if this beeper account gets hacked, then all of my messages are doomed.

It does have an option to self host, but at least for the Android app you need to register an account.

I'll keep an eye on it.

Great, it's not the bank's fault. Some extension in my Chrome breaks that. And everything is fine after I switched to a clean firefox.

Today, I was trying to move my patreon subscription to the ocbc card. When setup, the ocbc will send a notification to my phone, and I need to approve it.

The issue is after I approve it on my phone, the app said your transaction is approved. But the patreon website is still waiting for approval.

Naturally, I asked customer support. They told me to WAIT for a day or two and see if the problem solves itself.

WHAT?

我：查看ICOM 705
淘宝：推荐ICOM 905
我点开一看：售价2万5

家境贫寒，告辞！

@Luciferre 前面的都没点开，就看到这个“内有鸟类”，一下子就点进来了（

BTW I feel my last postcard is lost. Either it's lost or it's being destroyed.

A postcard full of digits is not that suspicious, right? I assume no modern spies use those old codes.

Oh, just find out the word "stamp" can be postage stamp, or the one I used to print a pattern/mark on paper. No wonder why I feel similar to that word.
