Hobby pledge: this week none. I’ve got a bill over 1125€ to cover for my car repair so that’s that… motivation zero, money drained. Cars are fucking expensive.

1. What do you miss about 90s pop culture? Im trying to make this a tad different to the more 80s themed predecessor thread.

Couldn’t tell you. It was a… weird time for me. First own flat, 4 years in the military, first “adult break up”, failing at the university… mentally and emotionally I was all over the place.

2. What was a bad thing about the 90s? Try not to let this one get too political.

War on oil. A very big fuckup.

3. Technology Question: What is your opinion on the following mantra with potential dangerous, albeit for the moment mainly theoretical technology: if we can do something, should we do it? Kind of an Isaac Asimov Question.

What was that other saying? “Everybody asked if we could do it but no one asked should we do it” (something along those lines) Technology should always be theoretically researched and thought about. But when it goes piratical a high grade of care needs to be applied. But even if something in it of it self is not dangerous (like a hammer) it can still be misused. And this potential of misuse should always be in the head of people.

4. Technology Question: What piece of technology are you enjoying using or is due to be released soon that you look forward to? This can be anything from an early 90s printer to VR gaming, or anything going off in a tangent.

On a daily basis: dishwasher and washing machine. Everyone who lives in a household with 3+ people loves those things 😉 On a personal level: video games and everything that’s associated with it. (PC, console, controllers etc). Other than that nothing comes to mind but I know that some techi stuff has had me going “oh I so need/want this” but I can’t remember what that was.

Now of to waiting for the call from the repair shop that my bloody car is finished…
