@DarknetDiaries @LordZiggington Correction, early 2022.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@DarknetDiaries @LordZiggington I found your podcast late 2021, I think the most recent one at the time was Dirty Coms. I listented to that and Zeus, then went back and listened to them all from the first.

I think I got all caught up early last year.

Now I hate having to wait!

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@AcademicChatter - Most PhD's don't end up in academia
- There are quicker, cheaper ways to get the same industry job you'll probably end up in, unless it's industry research maybe
- Think really hard about why you want to do a PhD and what you plan to do after

@JackRhysider My wife and I just moved house, and I cant' even describe how amazing it was to be able to pack my TV, speaker bar and Xbox into their original boxes.

So I'll keeping as many original boxes as possible in future!

@TheActMan_YT To be fair, the first two are totally on point.

I don't think social media leads to mass shootings. I think it's poison on society for a host of other reasons, but not for contributing to high school shootings.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@denDAY04 @juddmorse @JackRhysider Now that is mind blowing.

I'm heartbroken by the racist shooting in Buffalo this past weekend. My heart goes out to everyone affected by the shooting. The friends and families of the victims and also the communities who feel less safe than they did before. 1/8

@JackRhysider @DarknetDiaries Everytime I hear it I can feel my heartrate rise a little.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

When you're listening to @DarknetDiaries by @JackRhysider, and the guest speaker says:

"and then I went to sleep".

You know shit is about to go down.

Hi @TeamYouTube could you explain why you decided to set my video The End Of The Movie Star to restricted ads without notifying me, and rejected my appeal without explanation? Almost like you were trying to suppress my video...

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@TheActMan_YT I though I was just getting too old for video games.

If I’d bought a Bitcoin 4 days ago when I tweeted this, I would have made $6,000.

@thephdstory 5 on here, about 20+ on my mac.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@NehemiahKiv Self confidence is not needing, or seeking the approval of others, ego is the opposite.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

I'm even more concerned that I have never actually heard of matrix 4.

[The Critical Drinker @TheCriticalDri2]

This is kinda depressing. As convenient as it is to watch films without having to shift your arse off the sofa, being home is inevitably filled with distractions (phones, social media, deliveries). Going to a movie theatre feels significant, meaningful. It requires effort to do.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@RiaCorpeno C++ - because it's hard, ubiquitous, useful and will teach me more about how computers actually work.

[Geoff English @DryLabRebel]

@ODST_Parker @TheCriticalDri2 And the second.

Friends reunion being rescheduled for the beginning of March. Looks like we have a busy year coming up. And that's the way I like it!
