    Just a heads up the “10,000 in 1” game claims that every of these devices advertises isn’t something you should consider. It’s going to be a lot of games you’ve never heard of for older systems like the NES so they fit on lower capacity SD cards. Potentially in multiple languages. It also comes on SD cards most people would recommend replacing.

    It’s better to just download the entire library, individual games, or an already curated collection.





  • It depends what you are after.

    Even though Google has a long history of killing their products I doubt they’d do it to Google Drive anytime soon. You could upload it there and make it publicly available. Proton Drive is newer and preferred by a lot of people for numerous reasons. It has a 5GB limit. You could probably use that.

    I feel like the key is having at least one other place where it is in the event one service dies.

    That said there are paid services out there that would likely keep your files indefinitely and are unlikely to shutdown anytime soon.












  • A lot of social media sites. Twitter, 4Chan, Tumblr, TikTok, Facebook, Discord, and so on.

    There are various reasons for each but it frequently comes down to how much of it is people mindlessly reposting soulless clickbait and how hard it can be to find and track content relative to me.

    Also idolizing and following celebrities. I mean I like Jake Gyllenhaal but I would be indifferent if they disappeared off the face of the Earth tomorrow.
