On Letterboxd, if you pay for the top subscription you can choose the poster that shows up when people read your review. I was browsing through Letterboxd one day when I found a very strange poster for a movie. I performed a reverse...
Recuerdo las noches de desveloque me sentaba a escribir. Una voz me recitaba al oídopalabras que volcaba en el papel,yo solo era un médiumde esa musa. Con una rapidez inusuallas palabras caían una tras otra en el papel. Pasó una década...
I was taken in by the cover–come on, look at it, how could I not? The blurb clinched it, even though it didn’t register on me at the time that the book is narrated in first person. Ah well; live and learn. Beware: references to a...
The best thing that happened this week This will be a long update because quite a few things happened! The best thing that happened this week is that I made another side project public this week. I created a thing that takes an RSS feed,...
Sometimes I just feel this desire for less. My mind says to slow down. Not try to do a thing. Let’s overthink it all. So I sit for the morning coffee. The green tea comes a little first usually and then the barista brings the iced...

On a recent training camp trip to Mallorca, one of the other traveling athletes was a photographer. She took her gear with her and I was allowed to use it some days, just to try it out. After a day of taking shots, I was hooked. Hooked...
After two missed days due to having many work assignments, I return with a new edition of my Pook-Emu Bee links. Of course, there are no Pook-Emu Bee links tomorrow because of the newsletter and Sunday is hit and miss, so I encourage you...
I've been thrown the fuck off. I am feeling formulaic, creatively destitute. No matter; these things are part of it all, and in my mind's eye—a small glimmer of light will shine and show me the way. Do you ever feel like when things are...
So I recently upgraded my home internet to full fibre, after which I also decided to upgrade my router as there were some things I wanted to do with my network that my ISP-provided router wasn't capable of. I replaced my mesh system with...
Y en un nuevo episodio del salon de la fama del spam, hoy haremos una breve presentacion de una reliquia de mi servidor. Un ruso intentando crear una web porno a punta de comentarios. He hecho una captura de pantalla del texto que...
László Polgár’s experiment worked. That’s the problem. He raised three daughters to be chess grandmasters through intensive early specialization, and all three became exceptional players. Judit became the strongest female chess player in...
So I've been pondering (sometimes heavily) a blog post. It's been in my mind for days, and it's been bugging me for days because it's not something that I know what to write on, per se. The idea popped into my head just now, and I sat...
De ceva timp mă gândeam să adaug suport ActivityPub la Written Whisper și azi am terminat treaba. Practic am transformat jurnalul dintr-o platformă obișnuită într-un nod federat - ceea ce înseamnă că acum vorbește același protocol pe...
So a while back I wrote a post about zines. In that post I talked about how I felt that making a marketplace for zines would be too difficult to monetize. And by monetize I don't mean make me money but generate enough money to pay for...
I liked Kev’s recent post, Upgrading My Home Internet to Full Fibre. I too wrote about upgrading to fiber (as we Yanks spell it), but this is the part I want to talk about: I remember when I upgraded from a 56k MODEM, to ~2Mbps broadband...

The first time I heard about Passkeys I was about to email one of my dashingly swoon worthy friends. In this case it was Sean Crisden. I was about to detail the intricate specific joy of crunching down on a slice of freshly baked Apple...
When the Mind Stops Updating mtift Fri, 05/15/2026 - 08:14 There’s a new large language model (LLM) on the block, and it got me thinking about why I practice meditation.The model is called Talkie, and it’s not like the other models....
May 15, 2026 Monday I noticed an itchy spot on my upper back. By Tuesday, there was a hard bump where I’d been scratching it. Wednesday it was still itchy, and because of the bump I had Lisa take a look at it. Turns out it was a tick...
Sometime in 2021 I started jotting down my weight in Trilium. I wasn’t quite diligent about it but I did make that effort to log it down whenever I measured it. Looking back at it today, it’s interesting to see the consistent downward...
The end is coming soon ─ not what you think ─ But maybe worse ─ we stand upon the brink Of Armageddon's armies ─ the final clash When all will turn to lead and dust and ash. Both earth below and heavens above will burn; All evil, gone,...
Existen diversas formas de usar Emacs desde un dispositivo con sistema operativo Android. Creo que una forma es la ideal, pero voy a comentar todas por si acaso a ti te viene bien. La primera es instalar Emacs nativo desde F-Droid o...
While Elon's purchase of Twitter did knock me off the platform for a bit, I returned for bad political takes, mediocre housing takes, good energy takes, and a surfeit of memes. A post recently caught my eye showing off a rigged word...
The mid-May Weather here has been unseasonally cold, with sudden violent showers of rain and hail. The swifts have withdrawn to await better things; only the doughtiest butterflies – holly blues (amazingly abundant this year) and...
threads.com via instagram.com I try not to link to Threads (or the MLB for that matter), but these photos that play on the lines from the Rule of Thirds are just too damn good not to share.
Últimamente he estado pensando mucho en esto. Cuando me pongo a navegar y trato de replicar la experiencia que era explorar el Internet en los '90s y '2000s, me encuentro muchos sitios personales de internet, blogs independientes, sitios...
Before we get to anything else in this post, I’m asking you to open up a new tab—better yet, a whole new window—and put Lucy Bellwood’s extraordinary comic The Scale of a Man in it. Don’t read it while you’re distracted. Set aside a few...
for the last two years i have been mentalizing quite a lot, and i now can confidently conclude that this habit has not expanded my empathy. to the contrary, i've seen what's going on in people's minds, and i don't like it. i am, in some...
Spend enough time with Love Hultén's work and you start to feel like you're mapping an alternate world — one built from wood, electronics, and a very particular kind of whimsy.
May 2026. Whitby. I’d told Mrs RM if she was ready to leave for Whitby at 6am that Wednesday morning I’d take her along. I even threw in the prospect of a campervan overnighter opposite Loftus Police Station, where I parked up, alone, at...
We are in Thrissur. We left at around 2 AM and reached by 11 AM, with two breaks. The drive was comfortable. The traffic was friendly this time. Echo is getting old, and Uma is more active now. So the breaks are a necessity now. Thrissur...

“Attention is an intentional, unapologetic discriminator. It asks what is relevant right now, and gears us up to notice only that.” “How we spend our days,” Annie Dillard wrote in her timelessly beautiful meditation on presence over...
The following exchange popped up in the teacher group chat just now: First Year Teacher: I have several seniors absent. Do I mark them as present? I know today is Senior Skip Day. Principal: You mark them absent. Senior Skip Day is not...
I just read an article by Abhijit A.M. in The Anvil journal. Its title is The Decline of the Copyleft Free Software Movement and Its Ideological Limitations. It is subtitled A Marxist Critique of the Free Software Movement. It makes...

Hubo una tarde de un día inopinado en la que yo conducía en dirección a casa de mis padres. Desde mi punto de salida y con el tráfico habitual, los quince kilómetros a cubrir suponían un cuarto de hora de conducción, siempre y cuando no...
I've been able to go to the gym more consistently lately, and I've started using the strength machines too, instead of just using the treadmill. Usually my workouts consisted of the treadmill, my indoor cycle, pilates and yoga, but I...
The job is finally done. After considering moving all the images in the blog over to WebP, and then finally getting the migration under way, I'm all done. As I mentioned before: I've done this by hand, one post at a time, also adding...
It’s so big I can’t get the whole thing in frame. We’re inside the workshop building one side of it, so we’ll have to move it over so the other side. The interior will be done once the building is sealed from the elements and moved onto...
