Greetings, wanderer! You've reached my personal homepage. Let me introduce myself: I'm Michał, a middle-aged nerd from southern Poland who can't grow a beard to save his life. Beardlessness is a problem amongst older nerd crowds, so instead I have an old school, static website. The maximize the street cred, this site is fully self-hosted and self-built In fact, you are talking directly to my home server located in the living room. The HTML you are processing is generated by my custom Python SSR and is written in Vim.

It's been 3 years since the last movie. The Elders had to wait 3 full years to learn what will happen to frozen Han and what will papa Vader do. We waited a week. But what a mess it is! Return of the Jedi is the most chaotic, uneven...
I hate my iPhone. What used to be a cool toy became addictive and an active hindrance in my life. For a long time, I wanted to get myself a (so called) dumb-phone, but this would prove itself a challenge in the year of our Lord (The...
Out of all the recent games, this is the one I knew I wanted to try at some point. It's said to be a groundbreaking achievement of… something. People can't seem to decide if it's an indie game or an AA title. Still: I have yet to find...
You got to get them while they're young! The Kid liked the first Star Wars quite a bit, so we watched the sequel. The Wife had huge objections (it's too scary!), and she was almost right. However, The Empire Strikes Back is, simply put,...
The Kid is 7 now so it is the final time to present him the oryginal Star Wars. Well, the enhanced version.. but Original! I explicitly forbidden him from watching a lot of homeage (like the Fineass and Ferb movie) before we see The...
With the upcoming movie adaptation, I guess it's a good of a time as ever to remind myself the Rendezvous with Rama. Rama is a gigantic alien vessel which travels though the universe and reaches the Solar System around the year 2130....
We all know (or, at least, should know) Shirow from Ghost in the Shell. But he insists that his magnum opus is not that one, but rather Appleseed So, I've read it and I disagree. Compared to the OAV (which I've only seen recently) it is,...
I haven't planned to read two novels from the Space Rogues series in succession, but here we are. Read a few pages, got hooked in and yada yada. I've finished it. Big Ship, Lots Of Guns starts direcly after The Adventures of Will Calder....
Oh yeah! This is the real deal. An open-world, western RPG in a Cyberpunk setting. So, I role-played as a street kid hacker with an average size penis (not that penis is visible anywhere outside the character creator, but I think it's...
And another lucky find. This book has been laying in The Office for years, as the guy who bought it left a long time ago. It was just there, on a random desk, and no one was interested. So, Stallman, eh? We all know him. FOSS, a bit of a...
It took quite a while, but I finally got a new phone. The Wife's iPhone is at its last days (I have no idea how she does it), so she will inherit my iPhone 13 Mini. That is the law. But it required me to buy myself a new one, as having a...
I often say that I hate GenAI, but I am not sincere when I do that. It's not that I, as a developer, want to write each if or case statement; I couldn't care less about this. While I'd love to be able to write in machine code, I work in...
You sure you don't want a computer at your house? - No. - Seems awful strange to me. A man who made all of his money off of computers doesn't want to have one in his house. Well, this is maybe the most relatable movie ever made. Don...
Coffee and Cigarettes is a set of 11 short movies Jarmusch shoot between 1986 and 2003. I have no idea how he got Benigni in 1986, but damn! He gets the best cast. Anyway: I'm not a fan of this movie, as the quality differs significantly...
OK, so (not that) long story short: I'm back inside Emacs. I deeply enjoyed the Vim side-quest, so I can now say that I use both: Vim and Emacs, but it's time to return to the main storyline. See, Emacs is just so different from anything...
