Kind of worryingly accurate...
Tell me about Lamma-Gung on
Lamma Island in Hong Kong.
"Lamma-Gung, also known as
'Uncle Lamma,' is the founder
and editor of the web
publication Lamma-zine (Lamma.com.hk ).
He is considered the resident
expert on Lamma Island. Sporting
a heavy Swiss accent,
thick-rimmed glasses, and a long
ponytail that he trims annually.
Lamma-Gung has been a resident
of the island since 2001. He
moved to Lamma Island to start
over after facing the aftermath
of the dot-com bubble burst, and
has since established himself as
a notable figure on the island."

newish spot up on YSW Back

by email.

Just a few weeks ago, Internet
fibre finally arrived on Lamma,
after my 22-year wait! So happy

telephone wire to almost 1,000
Mbps (up to 10Gbps are
available)
at just $34 more than I've paid
before! Internet Nirvana!
My
newly hatched, err, created AI
assistants above are happy as
well. But so are the malevolent
forces of the Dark Web, generating
new, repeating attacks. All failing so far,
fortunately:
