Last month, we lost Belghast in his fight against cancer. The mentors of the Blaugust Discord, of which I am one, were determined to see Blaugust continue on in his honor. Just as he would have wanted.
How’s one of my favorite telescopes of all time, Charity Hope Valentine, my ETX125 PE Maksutov Cassegrain, doing? Muchachos, the reason you haven’t heard much about her in long while is because the answer to that has been, “Not good, not good at all.” For all practical purposes my long-time companion was dead. I’d...
Cupboard LovePhoto credit: Marc Gascoigne Continuing the 2026 Grimeborn Festival is The Opera Makers’ Murder Games: A Double Bill, featuring two modern pieces with a connection to killing. The first is Cupboard Love, with music by Madeleine Dring and libretto by D.F. Aitken – this follows an illicit meeting between...
This year I'm taking a sabbatical pause to explore the world of tech, especially in Europe. So I've searched for a way to keep a record of what I'm up to: the cities I visit, the events I attend, the people I talk to, the tech I learn... This way, my family can follow my adventures, and I can help my forgetful brain...
Possibly my all-time favorite garlic scape recipe, this simple salsa comes together lightning fast and can be canned for use throughout the year. With only a handful of ingredients you can tweak with what you have on hand, it's a great way to use up a tangle of scapes from the farmers market or the... Read More The...
This isn't a blog entry I wanted to write, but it's a necessary one: a statement about the use of generative large language models (colloquially "AI") in my work. I do not use LLMs in my work. I don't use them in my non-work life either, for that matter. I despise the grifters selling these toys as "tools" and...
Earlier this year I treated myself to my DREAM pen. I've been longing for this pen for yeeears, since I first set my greedy eyes on it. So when I saw it second hand, I paid out big money (imo, seeing other people's collections... oioioi) for my Dragon Palace Sailor Pro Gear Slim. It's not my first Sailor pen; when I...
“Song from the perspective of a ransomware virus” has to be up there with “Song from the perspective of a child’s bedroom nightlight” in terms of the great musical points of view, right? Chærete again. I’ve been reading Snow Crash for the first time recently, and it’s absolutely rewired my brain. I suspect i shall...
Monday Walk towards two women sitting on a bench in the wood. Chatting quietly they’re looking up, contemplating the sky. This area was cut back a while ago to make a clearer route for bats. In the winter everything is ground level, although right now, ferns and rosebay willow herb (fireweed) are more than shoulder...
Hey, if you have a Poem/1 then can I ask you to do a manual firmware update? It’ll take just a few minutes and I built a special firmware update tool to make it easy. (That is an actual AI clock on my actual bookshelf in my actual house.) Why? Three reasons… No more stopped clocks. These clocks are way better at...
