Should we really worry? 🤔 People are now freaking out over the Y2K38 "2K38 "Epochalypse." 💣 A ticking time bomb for older routers, GPS receivers, IoT smart devices, and even car computers that haven't migrated to a 64-bit architecture.

What did you do last time you were in nature? 🌲 This Forest was chosen for the Star Wars' Ewok Village due to its otherworldly and ancient appearance.

Fun facts about the Ewoks, the furry, teddy bear-like creatures from Star Wars:

✔️Ewoks were originally intended to be Wookiees, but their small size made them more practical for filming.

✔️ The Ewok language was created by recording and then manipulating the sounds of various animal vocalizations, such as bears, badgers, and walruses.

✔️ Ewoks were inspired by the indigenous peoples of the Philippines, specifically the Ifugao tribe and their practice of creating rice terraces.!⭐　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

Remember this intro? 😝 15 yrs of content creation, wow. Definitely reflecting thanks to this fun viewer made remix. Some of you are long time followers and were with me through my tech reviews of the 2009 Droid Eris (haha). To my Linux reviews, then gaming videos that turned into gaming live streams.

My tech side evolved into information security videos, my personal side kicked off @geeksabroad and now we're so happy to be really achieving geeking for social good with my nonprofit @geekbeacon and our conferences @geekbeaconfest
💜💜💜
I couldn't have done any of this without you! Thanks for the wild ride, and following me wherever this grand adventure takes us 🤓

The Batu Caves temple complex, located in a great limestone cave on the outskirts of the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur, for one day a year becomes the main place of worship for Malaysia’s large Tamil community.

More than a million visitors, Hindu pilgrims from Malaysia and neighbouring countries, alongside tourists, congregate at the temple to participate in Thaipusam.

The pilgrims walk barefoot for several kilometres and climb 272 stairs to the temple of Lord Murugan located in the middle of the cave.

They carry offerings that vary from bowls of milk to elaborate contraptions that can weigh up to 80kg known as “Kavadi”.

They often perform acts of self-sacrifice, piercing their skin with silver skewers that symbolise the Vel or with hooks from which they hang fruits or bowls of milk.

The ritual is intended to defeat the pilgrim’s inner demons and gain the god’s blessings.

What chu doin for the 4th? 🤓 Now like nerds, let's learn about tubing in honor of the 1st ever tubing celebration in 1941. 🌊🦄

I've gone river tubing all over the US and bamboo rafting in Thailand so it was very interesting that Sports Illustrated published a story on the person they credited with being the inventor of the sport: Thailand’s Royal Highness, Princess Panthip Chumbhot of Nagar Svarga.

🇹🇭 The princess was a known lover of things that brought her joy, which included buying some old innertubes and inviting a few friends to join her in floating on the river through her estate in the Chong Lom valley.

🔫 There are downsides to being a princess though, several armed guards were charged with the pleasant task of joining the princess and her friends.

📺 After news of the fun was featured on a Thai TV show, hundreds flocked to the southern Nakhon Nayok province wanting to join.

🤑 The princess’s late husband had been third in line to the throne, so she shrewdly chose to charge 5 baht (about 25¢) each to enter the estate and another 5 to rent a tube.

👶 It should be noted that little profit was made, though, as most of the funds were donated to Bangkok’s Chulalongkorn Hospital.

Have a safe and 4th and hope you enjoyed this brief history lesson. 🤓

What cute geeky things have you seen lately? 🤓 One time I made a full set of in game armor for a crush. Listen as @ruthsuehle from @redhatinc chats about the amazing gesture of love her son made her in Minecraft! Big thanks also to @lfestgg and @klov3r and Sierra Reid from Intel who chimed in during our gaming and tech expert panel.

Does our internet privacy matter? 🕵️ Or are we doomed to be at the mercy of an alg0r1thm, where we have to cens0r our speech just to be heard? This is my perspective on how we keep our private information, well... private! It's starts with...
✨ Holding governments accountable
⭐ Protecting cryptography 🔒
🌎 Make the Internet a PUBLIC utility
✨ Protecting Whistleblowers like
@that_snowden and the like

Follow resources like @efforg freedomofpress
and privacytools.io to start learning how to help your digital civil liberties. 💪

How would you do it?
