Something, the path ahead is truly unclear. I try to see this as an opportunity to explore even though humans are now faking or supplementing their own intelligence with Ai creating a dull, false sense of “know-how”. I’m not an Ai hater but over reliance on these tools is surely likely to dumb us down.

I’m on the path to upgrade my wisdom by reading more, doing lab work, watching demos and tinkering with tools I’ve never used before. Some of it is boring but I just need 10% of it to embed into my muscle memory and hopefully give me more ideas and back up my creative thinking.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

Don’t hate the player

Months of self-denied game play has served nothing more than creating a mild ting of animosity towards my haters. Well, the term haters is a bit harsh as they are very close individuals to me.

The promise of Tom Clancy’s The Division® 2 DLC 2025 has lured me back to the game and this time the temptation is to return to Brooklyn itself.

Back to the beginning.

PS5 has been dusted off, updated, base game installed and ready for DLC – May 27th 2025.

Tom Clancy’s The Division® 2 wonder if my Eagle Bearer is still in my stash.

Oblivious worlds

According to the United Nations, more than 5,600 people were killed in gang violence in Haiti in 2024, with another 2,212 injured and 1,494 kidnapped. This stands in stark contrast to the luxury cruise ships that dock on the island every few days, bringing thousands of affluent tourists.

I was aboard one of those ships, shielded by a mountain range that made it nearly impossible for locals to even catch a glimpse of the vessels by road.

Tourists grappled with the realization that they weren’t experiencing authentic Haiti. Instead, they wandered within a tightly controlled, sanitized environment where Haitian vendors were restricted to specific zones. Security was discreet, carefully preserving the illusion of a carefree vacation.

Warnings were posted, advising tourists not to venture beyond their designated areas, creating a feeling of a manufactured, gated experience—almost like a modern-day Jurassic Park. Visitors could buy a keychain or a fridge magnet as proof of their trip, while outside the protected zones, half the population was struggling to survive.

Why is this even a tourist spot?

GTA 6 will drop this year and the hype train will explode as casual and pro gamers move into this new world and ditch their real lives.

The maze of Digital hygiene

Digital: An abstract mess of details. What is my data, company data, public data, who owns it, who can share it, can I unplug from it?

Most folk willingly sign up for privacy notices just to use a service without really understanding the risk or their obligations or even reading the 20+ pages of nonsense.

Regulations wrap us up in legal jargon that is often difficult to understand and is contantly changing.

I’m so sick of being an “expert”.

How do I get out of this one?
