My computer is really slow

I needed one in a hurry when I bought it and it wasnt ever good and now its a few years old and its slow and awful to use, but on top of that, i need it for less and less things since my phone and my tablet do everything nowadays. I just finally got a printer that’ll print from my phone as well so thats most of the reasons I ever turned on the computer.

But i do use it sometimes for some things and I could use an upgrade which I was all set to pay for before covid.. but now I find myself not just staying home and keeping to myself but ive been dropping out of social media... i mean i barely go on facebook and when I do its always an eyerolling list of opinions i dont care about, and the few people who are posting personal posts about themselves are either on instagram anyway or i dont really know them or care that much. 

I was just mad all the time when i was on social media all the time. I dropped out of being mad and reclaimed all those hours of scrolling and typing angrily for my own use in my own house in my own real life. 

Most of them i use to watch TV shows. I think that was a good switch.

and instagram is less interesting as well as the program has changed to show me what seems like just a few people I follow, and a lot of the people i follow have gotten stuck in their own rabbit hole posting mass amts of posts on topics i dont care about. I’m sure i’m like that for other people as well. I’m not trying to say everything i post is awesome and interesting and everyone else sucks.

In fact I have always shamlessly posted my own thoughts and feelings and pics in the spirit of the early days of tumblr when it was thought of as a sort of digitial scrapbook. I’ve always considered all my posts for myself

Sure, like everyone, i like likes... but the truth is my cat always gets more likes than me no matter how clever or interesting I am, and pics of me being cute always gets more likes than anything very smart I ever say, and if I posted pics of my boobs, which I never do, I’m sure that’d get the most amount of likes. I’ve always taken it all with a grain of salt and followed/unfollowed people as I’ve enjoyed or not enjoyed their posts. 

I know people go through phases but just like in real life, some of them you’re on board for and sometimes you just let people go do what they’re gonna do and be who they’re gonna be without you. 

anyway I cant justify spending hundreds of dollars on a good computer, even though I need one, because I don’t want to spend more time on the computer.

Are you silently judging everyone through their online feeds?

milenials 2017. this is such a hype discussion between me and most of my friends nowadays. not to mention that milenial-life-style in my country has been extremely turned into something horrific. And this is a proof of how globalisation start to messing up our new generations and our youth. 

i have no idea why asians and americans tend to be unbelieavably active in social medias in compare to europeans. cause yeah not having an Instagram is such a typical European. they tend to be more exclusive about it. Therefore, living in europe taught me how to be more careful to post something on social media, especially for pictures where there’s another people on it. 

lemme tell you one example. in my circle, i am the only one who seems indifferent among my german friends (including the fact that i'm a foreigner). I basically dont give a flying fuck if anyone post a picture of me (unless its a naked picture) and i didnt look good on it. But apparently, it doesnt work the same for them. like i remember i once put their pictures our pictures in Facebook, and i tagged them without first asking their permission and they got pissed off. and i was like “okay, i apologize and im not gonna tag you guys anymore”. and they calmed down a little bit. and then a couple of months later, i put a few pictures of us after one party in Facebook (again) and i thought as long as i didnt tagged them and its not on their profile it would be just okay cause i thought we were cool already. but then, they were still so pissed and text-bombing me in our whatsapp group immediately. well, i have nothing to against them so i just deleted those picture soon as they begged me to. 

So speaking of which, this is what they called “Privatsphäre” in germans, or sphere of personal privacy in english. the thing is, not only my friends but almost all germans are kind of strict about it, cause they just simply dont feel comfortable about being in social media (even if no one’s gonna care about them if i put them in my insta story zum Beispiel), even worst, people can sue you if youre not so careful and aware about it. 

and now take a look at indonesians. has anyone ever seen dian sastro wardoyo’s jahitan instastory or marissa haque’s instagram album? that was freaking hilarious. i just cant tell whether indonesians are careless narcistic type of human being or theyre just simply born to show off. if i went to just hanging out with my pals, they would we would at least post something in instastory. not being a hypocrite, i did this as well. and somehow my temen-temen bule seems sort of annoyed since this things becoming my daily activities. eventho i did it only if theres a special ocassion, i mean, nicht immer. but yeah, im tired of people judging me in a way like i’m a fuckin socmed junkie, and i dont like the idea of it, so ive always think twice about what im gonna publish in my account. yet somehow i still dont know how to tell them that its not that i am a socmed bitch, but its just a matter of different circumstances. For me personally, its totally normal, cause my friends do that as well. But for my bule friends might be the other way around. Well, what can i say, im not God, i cant please everyone at the same time. So i guess the best thing to do is to reach the fairness for everyone who participates on the party. Hence, in order to reach everyone’s welfare and peacefulness, aku menyembunyikan instastory from orang-orang yang uncomfortable with this stuffs. regardless my family.

now if we're talking about Social Media in another aspect, i found a very trivial point of view that happens in my country which is; judging people from shits they posted on their social media or even their tone feeds on instagram. this is somehow sickening my head. 

despite of cybercrimes that happened alot through Internet, social media bring us lots of advantages. nowadays, people are using social medias not only to inform them about whats just currently happening in our world but also to earn some bucks. like online shop, endorsement for instaceleb, or promoting artists and musician’s masterpiece. especially in art and fashion's section. if youre living or working in entertainment world, you need slash have to had at least one social media to advertise and sell both your self and your shits. cause lets be blunt, television is just not enough anymore in our digital era. The bottom line is, the more interesting your social pages are, the more viral things you could make, the closer it is for you to become famous. its not so strange seeing lots of social media influencer spending lots of money just to buy expensive cameras so that they can have a so-they-called-instagrammable-picture and post it on their account. the biggest following impact of this phenomena occurrd in electronic industry as this needs of having a fancy gadget is slowly emerging. starts from Instax, Go Pro, Fujifilm or any other kind of mirrorless. The main point that we have to put in our mind is, that living in this life style is definitely not cheap. Yet people will still do anything to buy unimportant things to please people who actually dont even care about their shits, so that they could fit in. 

maybe some people might see already how scary it is, how globalisation forced us to be consumtive and changed ourself into someone we’re not. The worst case might be, if the milaneals cant afford this expensive life style, and the number of crime will probably increase. And im not sure if there’s any instant solution for these big worrying cases. But i guess we need to do something. Otherwise lots of new problems will occur in the mean time. Im just hoping that the existence of Internet doesn’t change the value of ourselves and how we see the world as well in the next following years.
