Interesting: Vero declares that I own my content but I give them more or less permission to do anything with it (which they technically need for the service) but it is „irrevocable“. Thus they directly say that they will never delete my content even when I close my account.

Google Music and other streaming-services seem to be like Netflix: music gets deleted & re-added depending on licensing I guess. Well, it’s just a subscription and you do not own the music. But I pay now more for music because of streaming in a year than I did ever before

I finished Altered Carbon. This series is so great. Really great transhumanic crime story and it looks like my imagination when I read cyberpunk or post-cyberpunk stories. Can’t wait to read the books now.

And the next family member who will move from macOS to Linux when the current laptop breaks (actually it is already not upgradable anymore from macOS 10.6…) because Macs are just too expensive compared to used Thinkpads.

I’ve beaten now the clone in Wily Stage 2 in Rockman. This is a real hard game. No weapon refills between stages is evil.

Dear iOS-game devs: I always look at the IAP before I download a game and when I see that there are only consumables to buy, I do not even download your game when I can’t figure out if I need those to have a playable game.

Current state of Rockman: thanks to lots of quick saving I advanced to the Wily Stages. I didn’t have to backtrack to the magnet beam because I tackled Guts Man first. I really hate the start of the stage.

Oh, a very old password from me which I still have on old unused accounts and when I need fast a short temporary one got compromised. In other news companies (even smaller ones where I thought they’d do better) still store passwords in clear text.
