This was not what I expected. And I know to expect shocking from Murata. But I didn't knew how much sex was involved... got interesting, to the point I could not stop reading, mainly the evolution of the society. But that ending was a bit out of context... like... she broke? Everything was rationalization until the...

Read Developing your mindfulness practice đ! now!So⊠read any good pamphlets lately?I love a good pamphlet, and by that I mean crazy pamphlet, even when it was Jack Chick telling me that I am going to hell.

I have been wearing smartwatches for over ten years now, pretty much ever since Apple released the first Apple Watch. I went through several of the basic models, eventually landing on the Apple Watch Ultra and up until recently wearing the Ultra 2 daily. I really liked their design and the interchangeable bands,...

Banks and financial institutions in Canada make a lot of money. In the first quarter of 2026, the big 6 hit $19 billion in profit, up from $14 billion the year prior[1]. They have refined their businesses to be well-oiled machines, yet fraud and unauthorized transactions are increasingly a thorn in their sides. Not...
Thank you to everyone who answered the call for good software updates from last week. I received so many nominations that the list below is severely narrowed down, but I appreciated every response! I grouped the answers in sections I saw emerge organically, I included links to apps, and did some light editing for...
When people think of legacy modernization, most folks aren't imagining the target environment will be Java 8. But this was the challenge facing Nik Malykhin when he needed to run a Java 1.5 codebase on today's hardware. His early use of LLMs gave plausible answers that did not hold up in the codebase. Progress came...
Hello! Iâve been working on a Django site recently, and I decided to use SQLite as the database. When I was getting started with using SQLite as database for a website I read a bunch of blog posts about how it is totally fine to use SQLite in production for a small site and I think it is totally fine, but what I did...

Most of the tech support I have done for family, friends, and everyday users starts before I touch the device.Someone hands over a phone with a strange warning, a laptop that will not sign in, or an email they are afraid to open. They ask, âCan you fix this?â What they often mean is, âDid I ruin something?â or âCan...
I've released v0.9.0 of Rogallo. The first big change in this release is the addition of syntax highlighting to pre-formatted text. Much like in Markdown, Gemtext also supports pre-formatted text bounded by code fences. Gemtext supports the concept of "alt-text" for such text, like this: ```python def hello(name:...
In writing and publishing, Iâve been everywhere.

Rating: đ© Type: Non-Fiction If you are an avid reader of Doctorow's blog "Pluralistic" you will have probably heard most of the arguments here before.

I wish I could remember how this podcast came across my radar so I could give credit where itâs due. But alas, I cannot. Itâs episode 217 with Dr. Iain McGilchrist. At one point, he shares his perspective about how science and reason can only take you so far: [science and reason] have their limitations. Most...

There was, a long time ago, a small kingdom, and in that small kingdom was a prince who deemed himself just. This Prince reveled, above all else, in subjecting his people to the most peculiar trials. In his Princely youth, he enjoyed making his servants go about their chores while hopping around on one leg, or while...

The worst possible thing I can do when I'm having a bad AuDHD day is start organizing my office, and that's the main thing I'm inclined to do, probably to somehow reclaim a bit of control. The process is the same every time. I wake up, maybe tired after having only a few hours of sleep, and the tiredness throws off...
I share my process with a timelapse talking through the process of making this retro dating sim style scene in Aseprite.
Recently, I was talking with an online friend that I met in the FGC community. We quickly developed a kind of gaming friendship where we discovered that we both shared the same interests and played the same games, other than fighting stuff. In our last conversation, he told me that he was basically quitting fighting...
July 2026. Kelham. Sheffield. I know jealousy is a terrible thing, but I really am jealous of Simonâs frenetic progress towards completion of the Beer Guide. Itâs not always fun, and BRAPA has the really scary stuff still to come (probably in a boat in a storm near Sark), but nothing gives you that adrenaline rush...
There are insights, vistas, glimpses and perspectives that donât fit into any particular pattern or category. I like to call them scenes, and as photographs they always have their own charm. Here are a few of them from our trip to the wonderful island of Sicily, as the fifth part of my photo series.

Writing for the world is something which has ebbed and flowed for me over time. Iâve always liked sharing my thoughts, starting with websites all the way back when I was a kid. In times when I sustained it, I had various âblogâ-like things for technical projects which would often veer into sharing personal beliefs...

Anyone using Pop!_OS with Cosmic? I tried it when it was first released, but I looks like they've done a lot of dev work to it and it's improving all the time. Considering installing it again...

The website that hosted this review is no longer online so I would like to keep it here. The below review was written when I was sighted. I am fully blind now. Side note, nearly 15 years later, this game seems like some serious fun now! Iâd gladly go back and time and tell my younger year old self, hey, trust me,...

Thereâs a ton of information on the internet about baking sourdough. Some present the process as simple, when itâs not. Others make it intensely complicated and nerdy.

Iâve been drowning. Iâve been trying to keep my head above a raging storm of feelings that I never knew had a collective name when put together: anticipatory grief.1 Obviously, like everything in my life, once I can put a name to something, I end up going down the rabbit hole of research. I needed to understand what...

New computer means new configuration from scratch! Since Emacs is the mainstay program I use across devices, I want to document how Iâm doing web development with it right now. First I took the time to go over my init.el and remove anything Iâm not using. I like to aim for about 100-120 lines of code on it. Itâs an...
Yes, this one is a real word according to Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913). Borrowed from Latin, this word (and its cognates like the French bibliothĂšque and Spanish biblioteca) means "library" in modern English. Libraries are quiet havens for enriching my knowledge, but they can be restrictive with...
Matt creates and designs some great apps, they are thoughtful, and considerate of the user.

You know what, I was kind of busy last week with my OCC project, and I was also building a website for a friend who is opening her own doctor's office, and so I completely forgot that my blog turned three years old last Thursday! Well I actually didn't completely forget, but I was convinced that the date of my first...
Following the celebration of my 20 years with Linux, I wanted to recreate the moment I installed Ubuntu âBreezy Badgerâ 5.10 for the first time, and with QEMU it was quite easy to do on my modern Fedora 44 environment of 2026. Install and Run First of all I downloaded the install CD for i386 of that old release,...
I love reading. I caught the bug as a middle-schooler when I got caught skipping school, and as punishment, I had to read The Chronicles of Amber and do a book report about it. Even today, opening a book and fanning the pages to get the paper smell activates very fond memories and emotions. I remember a time before...

I have a use case where I need to copy files from Nextcloud to S3 storage using my phone, and I think I finally found the perfect apps for this.
