As predicted yesterday, things just kept on along the same lines. Too many escallations to mention, just non-stop, loterally everywhere I went. Was subjected to more sleep depravation by a gang of men and a butch woman that appear to be part of a much much bigger gang stalker gang. Hardly any sleep. They are at it already again this morning. Everything manufactured. It’s like some sort of open air improv acting school, and for whatever reason they have decided to organise all their activities around me. And there’s nothing I can do about it. Mind boby and sole stolen. Bleak bleak bleak bleak bleak bleak bleak bleak bleak bleak. #

Meta Glasses Are The Top Selling Product In Many Ray-Ban Stores - I really like the concept of having smart glasses, I could see it being really useful, but privacy-wise it’s going to be a complete nightmare. There are so many a-holes in the world already taking photos of people with their cell phones without permission. Happpens to me multiple times per week currently. You can spot the cameras in the glasses quite easily. Now anyone with thick glasses will be suspect. www.uploadvr.com #

Build A Static RSS Reader To Fight Your Inner FOMO - Great article, it actually looks suprisingly easy to get something basic running. Add HTTP basic auth on the path, and basically you have your own self hosted private feed reader. Might be enough for those morning catch ups with the people you follow in the blogosphere. Uses netlify serverless functions but could also use cron. www.smashingmagazine.com #
