Reminder That Lottery Is A Scam

Remember when I said 2 years ago that lottery is a scam?. The Romanian Lottery organized a special draw for New Year’s Eve (as they usually do), with two draws. This means that a ticket is valid for both draws, giving the players more chances to get a prize. The results?

Loto 6/49, principal draw: 48, 24, 23, 34, 28, 49
Loto 6/49, supplemental draw: 24, 23, 28, 45, 49, 7

Still think this shit is not rigged? Getting the same 4 numbers twice, and in the same order? Yeah, sure. Of course, there will be no inquiry into this, and we’ll move on to the next scam.

So much fucking spam

So much fucking spam

So many fucking bots, so much spam. Feels like 99.9% of the traffic on my site is some kind of shit robot set up by some retarded Thai kid. If you’re a human, remember to sign the guestbook! Love ya.

Due to a bug in CSS, it seems that images on the site weren’t loading anymore. Patched and now it’s fine. In the image you can see the three stages:

  • Not working
  • Testing the box model with some thick borders to see if anything floats weirdly
  • Finally working

Writer's block and you

I often find myself in a place where I have no idea about what to write. I don’t always have a mood of writing, and it’s normal, and writing is a habit that you need to form. Moreover, think about the audience, what makes your blog special, and then proceed to disregard everything because you should always write for yourself. Join blogging challenges if you want, there’s a ton of them on the internet. Write code snippets, feelings, opinions, tell stories. Just make it in a way that when you look back at one of your posts you’re like “.. nice!

Happy posting!

PS: Oh, and most important thing: Have an RSS feed!

Thoughts about online communities

The “internet was better” trope stems from the fact that back in the day internet users went to each other’s throats because they wanted to, not because some corporation or government psy-op told them to.

Good, idiot-free spaces can still exist in 2025, but only if you de-politicize them. We can bash each other just as easily without Zuckerberg’s input.

Back in the day, no one gave a shit about privacy because everyone was already anonymous. No one was tracking no one, but most importantly, no one gave a shit about one as an individual or as an opinion. Even deeper, no one cared about their name or social statute, we said what we wanted because we didn’t care about fake internet points. Don’t like me? Ban me? Fuck you, I can create another yahoo.com email in 20 seconds and pop a new account on the platform in another 10. No phone verification, no 2FA, no scan your ID and selfie to be accepted.
