New comment by imartin2k in "Om Malik has died"

Sad! He (and Michael Arrington) were the first two tech bloggers I read religiously back in the web 2.0 days. Had Malik’s personal blog in my RSS feeds until now. It has been only a week or so since I read his last post.

New comment by imartin2k in "Digital euro clears key hurdle as EU seeks to break free from U.S. credit cards"

I only use CC, to earn airline points (based in Sweden). But I always pay the entire amount due at the end of the interest-free period, so I never pay interest.

I also like the fact that using a CC comes with better buyer protection than debit cards.

New comment by imartin2k in "Viktor Orbán concedes defeat after 'painful' election result"

imartin2k — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 06:16:46 +0000

I suspected he would lose when he was recently visited and supported by Vance. Nobody likes Vance (in Europe, and probably anywhere). Getting prominent backing by an unlikable character isn’t a winning strategy.

New comment by imartin2k in "List of domains censored by German ISPs"

imartin2k — Tue, 30 Dec 2025 09:24:46 +0000

I see canna.to on the list. Amazing, that site already existed when I downloaded MP3s in my early internet days, in 2000. And still looks pretty much the same.
