- What would you say is particular about your generation? The boomers call you useless.
- Yes. A big reason why they are "useless" is because they don't really see a purpose in having a job or something like that.
- And the only reason why the boomers want you to work is because they want their pensions.
- Yes.
- They don't care about your future. "Work, slaves work. I want my free cash."
- But I think it's better to be free but don't live in a luxury house with luxury car, than being a slave that has a luxury car. But as I said, I think it's mostly just reduce expenses and just try to live with less. Because it is perfectly possible. Humans have lived for millions of years with way less than we have.^[1]And it works perfectly fine. It's just that we are used now to that comfort and therefore, it's hard to get rid of it. But it doesn't mean it's impossible.
- It's just about will and people don't want it. That's the problem. But people get what they deserve. If they don't accept that, then you're screwed. And you get what you deserve. What about films? What films do you like and what's your favorite film?
- Well, no, really...
- We stopped buying films, by the way, several years ago because everything is just woke garbage. But of the films we have, what's your favourite film?
- I mean Lord of Rings certainly is high up there. But then I've watched it so many times that I'm kind of tired of it.
- You know it by heart now?
- Yeah, exactly. But I would say that's one of the best ones without any doubt.
- So what about science fiction? Do you like science fiction?
- Uh, not really. But Star Wars up to Star Wars 6 is pretty good.
- But everything after that is garbage. - Yeah, in any case, everything after that's garbage. I mean Star Wars 1 to 6 is not particularly incredibly good, but it's okay.^[2]It's not as good as Lord of Rings or some other movies.
- You like the Gladiator too, right?
- Yes. Not the "two".
- You also like Gladiator? Not Gladiator too.
- You have your own YouTube channel but you also watch other YouTube channels right? What's your favorite YouTube channels?
- well, I watch "(?)", "Tod's Workshop", another guy that you probably don't know called "Leonidas Sparta".
- I think I've heard about it.
- I've also watched some videos from a guy called "Dash Rendar" that also makes videos about medieval things.
- But you Also watch other kinds of videos, don't you?
- Yes, I do.
- Also in relation to education, right?
-Yes, I watch a lot of a channel called Veritasium. Which is like all sorts of like science, things. Which is good. Then I watch a French channel called (?)
- And also another thing, role playing games. You have helped me with the play testing and such when I made [rpg games] and especially ReconQuest, really. Do you play role playing games?
- I mean, we do sometimes.
- It's been a while now. And again, it's because it's difficult to organize, right?
- Yes.
- That is the problem with role playing games.
- And you also have a problem that you actually have to have time, all of you at the same time. Because sometimes it's you have time and they have time, but I don't have time.
- Yeah, exactly, It's very difficult to organize.
- So that's the main problem with role playing games.
- You mentioned that you have read The Hobbit and Lord of the rings, but do you read other books? I mean, not in relation to homeschooling, but for fun. Yes, I have read Harry Potter books, which are better than the movies. And right now I'm reading The Legend of Drizzt.
- Ah, that's a D&D book.
- Yeah
- Is it good? is it fun?
- It's pretty good. Not anything very fancy about it. Not particularly good.
- It's very realistic combat.
- No, no, it's completely unrealistic.
- But it's fun, right?
- Yes.
- Anything else?
- I mean, I have read other things. I've read a lot of sagas.
- Oh, yeah, that's true. The norse sagas.
- Well, Islandic actually,
- But Iceland, that's just a Norwegian colony, - I have read like a lot of the sagas. - Isn't it called the Norse Sagas? It's called Icelandic?
- I think it is. Yes. That's only in English. In Norwegian, we say the Norse Sagas. I bet they say Icelandic songs in Iceland.
- And they also say that in, in France.
- Damn French.
- So this is where you train, right?
- Yes, it is.
- You lift weights and it's just all over the place. And this is an extra gearbox and transfer case for the UAZ. What kind of physical activity do you participate in?
