Pretty much, BTW you also want to disable WiFi and Bluetooth when entering big box stores.

They are notorious for tracking your phone, and by extension you and your shopping habbits when you step into one if their stores.

Does Denmark still have mail delivery for “other items” like small are large packages?

I would presume one could still send a envelope with a letter inside it located inside a bigger box or bubble envelope? One could even use the service to ship a fully encrypted USB or HHD if one wanted too.

In Canada there is talk about ending the national funded postal service as well (this one delivers letters predominantly), you can use it to ship larger items along with standard envelopes.

Its a strange idea to me though as people always need to mail things, so if the national postal service is shuttered then a private postal service will need to step in.

I truly believe our politicians are out of touch. Either because they themselves are too old or because they dont understand the underlying concepts.

What truly upsets me is understanding things like USBs and HDDs still exists. So if someone wanted to share “illegal content” completely “offline” it’s already possible to do so. How does scanning everyone’s personal “letters” help track down people sharing “illegal content” hand to hand.

But how do you ban VPN’s? Like am I not going to be able to remote into work or the office? Or will I now not be able to connect into my own private VPN that I run at home.

I for one will be going back to written letters for all further correspondence.

Wonder if my postman is reading my letters though as well?

I don’t understand how this keeps coming up.

Do we need to go back to physical written letters?! Or do governments want access to all our correspondence both physical and digital.

Similar like Christmas, Halloween is not celebrated in the same commercialized way in parts of Europe for example. It focuses more on the remembering and honouring of the dead, commonly done with heading to evening mass and then lighting a candel at the cemetery.

Halloween as we know it evolved from two main sources: the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of summer and the beginning of winter, and the Christian observances of All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day. The night before All Saints’ Day, November 1, became known as “All Hallows’ Eve,” which was later shortened to Halloween.

Celtic festival of Samhain

Purpose: To celebrate the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the dark, cold winter.

Beliefs: Celts believed that on the night of Samhain (around November 1), the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred, allowing spirits to roam the earth.

Traditions: To ward off evil spirits, people would light large bonfires and wear costumes or disguises.

Timing: Held around November 1, the time of the new year for the ancient Celts.

Christian influence

All Saints Day: In the 8th century, the Roman Catholic Church moved the feast day of All Saints to November 1, likely to absorb or replace the pagan traditions of Samhain.

All Hallows’ Eve: The night before the feast of All Saints became known as “All Hallows’ Eve,” or “the eve of all the hallowed (or holy) ones”. Over time, this name was shortened to “Hallowe’en”.

Merged traditions: Many pagan traditions from Samhain merged with Christian observances, such as the “souling” tradition in which people went door-to-door asking for food in exchange for prayers for the dead. This is a precursor to modern trick-or-treating.

This is a interesting question. I believe it comes down to if the “corporate version” of Santa Claus (and Christmas) has made its way to the southern hemisphere. Christmas is a major Catholic holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus. Santa Claus is derived from the Saint Nicholas a patron saint.

“Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, brewers, pawnbrokers, toymakers, unmarried people, and students in various cities and countries around Europe. His reputation evolved among the pious, as was common for early Christian saints, and his legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the folklore of Santa Claus”

If you have not already done so watch the animated series Pantheon (2022). Worth the watch and goes deep into simulation and concesiones.

How’s this not on the list!

Second hand sales and flee markets, no cameras (mostly true) and you can pay cash.

That depends where your VPN is.

Say you access a VPN located over seas from your phone while on mobile data. Then your traffic is encrypted and your mobile data provider (for your phone) should only see traffic to one IP address.

Say you access the same VPN while at home connect to wifi or Ethernet on a PC (or on your phone), then your ISP should only see traffic to the one IP address (that’s located over seas).

Now let’s say your are tech savvy enough to run a Wireguard setup and or Tailscale setup at home and make your own VPN. Then you access that from work or from overseas with a mobile phone or laptop. All your traffic should now show as connecting to your homes IP address directly, but keep in mind your home ISP provider then sees you connecting to sites like Google, Facebook, or Lemmy.

Considering my past experiences leaving NFL stadiums after a game, not well.

You can be stuck in the parking lot (in your car) for hours after a game ends, and only move a few feet/meters.

Most stadiums are surrounded by a sea of alsphalt, and in some cases adjacent to one or two Interstates Hwys.

And on top off that FIFA is also selling NFTs that might get you the opportunity to potentially buy a ticket.

The whole process is bordering on gambling.

Your are gambling buying tickets for a match between two teams that might not play, and gambling buying NFTs to be chosen to be put in a draw to buy tickets.

And for everything else there’s MasterCard

Shoes and shirt, or no service otherwise.
