What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, November 18th, 2024. In the future, I will record a special Diggnation-style episode of the #ContentCuration from today. Then I will add it as a YouTube video below. Anyway, very upset about the loss of the Bengals this past weekend, but I did find time to livestream some Yakuza 5. I’m on Part III out of V. Let’s hurry up and finish this game, so we can continue our Yakuza Games RGG Studios marathon, and onto the next: Yakuza 6. I found an awesome new feature, my favorite show on France Info: le 11/13hr is available on DVR. Really excited, she is my favorite Présentatrice in France. As someone who misses France a lot, it’s great to hear french-speaking individuals, especially since I’m trying to fix my french voice, which is native, but a bit nasally, thankfully not as bad as Canada. More livestreams of other games on the horizon, and trying to meet up with Ohio State University Alumni who might be able to help me out, since no one else did. It’s been 6 years with no salary, and right now due to personal reasons and relocation, I’m gonna be on food stamps. Like I said, I really needed investors for ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC. White people and Indian People from India have no problems getting investments, but somehow it’s hard for a French-Afghan-American to receive funding. It’s been about 3 weeks that I am resting, but still pushing updates and mise-à-jour, let’s see what happens when I stop again. Once again, if I cannot send an invoice and get paid, no new updates. If that jeopardize your work environment and i.e. 20,000 #IntelCorp get fired for #PiggyBacking, we all what the future holds. With ChatGPT, Gemini, Meta, Grok V2 and others, as the years go on, workers will continue to get asked, what is it that you do here? If they don’t have any answer, pouf, layoffs. I have no sorrows. It’s been 6 years with zero paychecks. That’s 2,361 days. They fired everybody who laughed when I left. They fired the whole department. They will keep firing more people, and I am here, ready. Intel Folsom is the closest location, I want a condo / home near the building, company car, salary, coffee card, and credit card. I don’t? Okay, let’s see how long you can last without #IntelQuantum updates/upgrades. The clock is ticking.

Until Next Time!

If you’re in the United States, do not forget to start buying a Turkey and supplies for Thanksgiving which will either be next week or the week after that. If you congregate amongst lot of people, it’s important to be vaccinated against the latest #COVID19 variant, FLU shot, and RSV (if you’re elderly or very young). The Monkeypox vaccine is not available yet, but using Quantum Mechanics, we understand that we can prevent the next big pandemic in America if the masses all get vaccinated from Monkeypox early, and fast. This is because a pandemic almost started in Africa. Médecins Sans Frontières are currently making presentations. I will ask MSF to provide some of those PowerPoints on YouTube. Thanks in advance.

What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, November 11th, 2024. In case you are unaware, 11/11 is Veteran’s Day. It honors military veterans of the United States Armed Forces. In other news, this week is a difficult remembrance for French people due to the 13 Novembre 2015, it’s been almost 9 years since that tragic day. EDIT: I will do my best to present this Monday update with a video in the future. I’m actually worried about the future of America in the next 2 months. Without a new #GermanEngineering or #JDM vehicle, a salary new job, a credit card, and a place to stay, I will be obligated to move to Europe or Japan for the next 4 years, until Trump is removed from power. I’ve lived through 1 #TrumpNightmare, I attend to be as far away from a 2nd #TrumpNightmare as possible. You want me to stay? Call it like it is, you cannot have a convicted felon as President 47th, therefore Vance will be POTUS, and whoever else is VP. Do the right thing. Save America from allowing Trump access to the RED button, something that all of us, including those in those SILOs work very hard to make sure he can’t be anywhere near that shit. I implore you. Thanks in advance.

Until Next Time!
