Have you ever been to Studio Ghibli museum in Japan?
If you ever get a chance, go!
You are not allowed to take photos inside, and they have exclusive videos only shown in their theatre, So there are no spoilers on the interwebs (Well there shouldnāt be)
The ticket stubs are collectors items.
And you can take photos outside
Heres one of mine from the rooftop

Japan is a great country (one of my favourites)
Rather than going somewhere similar to USA like Canada, Australia etc. Japan would be a good look at another culture for you.
Many western influences, but it is a very traditional country.
The people are super friendly and an amazingly safe place to go.
There have been some recent political decisions that has damaged the innocence.
If they dont fix it, it will continue to decline.
It has been sad, disapointing and frustrating to watch.
If you can, go sooner rather than later that would be better.

Sometime in about a year I plan on visiting the Netherlands to see a friend. At that time weāll probably take some trains around Germany and possibly some other countries-- wherever he wants to take me, really.
After that, Japan might be on my radar!

Laughs in dual citizenship 
You 'borgs need to travel a bit more.
Itās in my radar, along with a few other Asian countries.
My German friends always complain about their trainsā¦ So be prepared to wait on the platformā¦

I can confirm, and the trains in the Netherlands are slightly better at best. Itās not expensive in my opinion, just lots of delays.

I logged into chatGPT and was offered āapp connectā which allows you to connect Google Drive, Dropbox, your email.. basically everything. I considered it for one microsecond..
But also..
Now some people might think whatās the difference? Google has access to all of your documents and chats and even your SMS now if you let it.. so whatās the big deal?
Iāve been slowly moving off of Googleās ecosystem to my own nextcloud instance for file storage, collaboration, and instant messaging with teams and family. I use federated matrix chat for other chats, and thereās talk of nextcloud talk (messaging) becoming federated. You can already federate with other nextcloud instances, but itās a manual process. Hopefully they will fix that and allow a DNS based federation system for sharing and chat.
Iām hoping I can eventually get my own local AI developed to the point where I can leverage what I always wanted .. an AI that I operate that can sort through all my data and quickly locate things for me and infer meaning and important insights I missed. Perhaps one day.

Pilgrim: thereās a job offering if you want to relocate to a server in some basement in the pacific midwestā¦
A while back I saw a youtube video about screen capture AI like Windows Recall having the potential for mass surveillance if companies like Signal donāt cooperate with the chat control client side scanning thing. However, Iām struggling to find it now

Iāll just say this. Thereās no such thing as a secure messaging app. The only thing that comes even remotely close is keybase. Signal is not secure.

Itās notā¦ Still, itās weird to see the push towards less privacy.
