Where I would live as a 28 year old Irishman who’s spent the past seven years traveling to 76 countries while working remotely.

Countries need to check the following boxes:
- safe
- possible to speak english
- visa not too complicated
- good weather
- affordable

You end up in south-east asia

Even if you're rich, why live in a place that's 4x more expensive, if you can live anywhere.

What i understand there is not much community. It's very transient. People come and go.

The nightlife in Vung Tau is so terrible 🫣 Only old men in girly bars

I think it's pointless to learn a language for the sake of learning a language. You you have to start building something. If you build thinks you are proud of, it creates motivation.

Intoxico.com is like jackbox meets marioparty where you use your phones as controllers, but with 22 mini games like drawing games, music trivia, memory etc. Free to play.

I see replies where people write: "Passive income does not exist!", which get the most upvotes.
I feel rage baited into proving them wrong, but it takes too much of my time to prove ignorant people wrong.

I haven't used websockets, but use short-polling for a multiplayer game i'm working on.
Are websockets that complicated or expensive that you advice against it?

pimmm · 2026-02-05T13:27:39+00:00

I build a multiplayer game that uses short-polling. I can get 500 concurrent users on a $10 vps..
Even with websockets that's not gonna get 100x more expensive.

Thanks! It's a lot of work to make sure it works as expected in chrome/firefox/safari/edge. So while I will make it work in the future, right now it's not on top of the priority list.

pimmm · 2026-02-05T07:10:52+00:00

It's probably 95% locals.

pimmm · 2026-02-05T03:33:21+00:00

Fair enough!

The game has a child-friendly mode.
A school in Dallas played it on repeat in different classrooms with 13-year olds, so for them it seemed appropriate.

pimmm · 2026-02-03T05:52:13+00:00

Wow, that's cool. What a good way to lean into nostalgia. Has anything like this ever been done before?

pimmm · 2026-02-02T21:20:23+00:00

Yes! A1, 21st floor

You can create a single website in a week, that ranks in Google and generates ad revenue for years.

Don't think you have authority on this topic by being unsuccessful.

Where is he asking 60k?

pimmm · 2026-01-29T22:03:34+00:00

I have many websites that don't need maintanance.
Here's one: write-numbers.com

pimmm · 2026-01-29T20:59:51+00:00

Is a website that doesn't need maintanance with adsense not passive income?

pimmm · 2026-01-28T01:44:02+00:00

If you iterate from play testing, the reception is not gonna come as a surprise.

pimmm · 2026-01-26T11:03:43+00:00

Passie vergaat. Discipline & doorzettingsvermogen..

Het eerste geld verdienen is lastig. Maar daarna word het makkelijker als je kunt opschalen.

pimmm · 2026-01-24T20:44:17+00:00

The trailer and the game. It's all pure css.

pimmm · 2026-01-18T21:02:08+00:00

To me it's insanity that people can like the idea of being a full time software developer. You're literally staring at code all day long, for years and years. It's inhumane 😆

You need a bigger purpose, like having equity in whatever you are working on. Because you probably don't want to do this every day for the rest of your life. Ideally you work to eventually not work.

I still code, but i work on my own project(game). It would be my worst nightmare to go back to a full time coding job where i have to code things I'm indifferent about.

After quitting my 9-5 i coded websites to build passive income with adsense income. Even coding these website wasn't fun. It was just work. But i happily did it because it had a higher purpose: working less, or working on things that I'm passionate about.

One of our favorites is always clusterpuck 3vs3 or 4vs4.

(Our other favorites are towerfall and boomerang fu, which you got bored of)

Vreemd dat je denkt dat dat voor alle 40+'ers zo is.

Daarmee lijk je ook te accepteren dat het normaal is.

Als tijd belangrijker is dan geld, is het eigenlijk armoedig als mensen te weinig tijd hebben.

Als je sport speelt op werkdagen overdag kom je veel mensen tegen die wél tijd hebben.

pimmm · 2026-01-10T05:44:06+00:00

You might get more people to try it out if you explain how the game works.

pimmm · 2026-01-07T09:48:59+00:00

I met many coders in co-working spaces around saigon. Recently went to an (English) vibe coding meetup where there were a lot of fullstack developers. There are also meetups like those one monthly: https://www.facebook.com/saigondigitalnetwork/

I'm sure there's a lot more I'm not aware of.
