I saw a link to a 1Password report about totally shocking and unofreseeable vulnerabilities involving OpenClaw. I recently discussed how they started a so-called AI social network to distract from the previous round of bad publicity (which unsurprisingly had its own security problems). What is next? I’ll throw my...
Favorited The Indie Web Is Not Defined by Its Enemies by Khürt Williams (islandinthenet.com) The indie web is stronger when it is defined by what it does: people owning their publishing, people controlling their data, people connecting through open standards and handcrafted links. That identity does not require a...
I have a Posteo email account. I was paying 1 Euro per month (or whatever that converts to in USD at the moment) for 2 GB of storage. Today, Posteo doubled the amount of storage on the 1 Euro plan from 2 GB to 4 GB. I do not think I was anywhere close to using 2 GB, but you will not catch me complaining about free...
I wrote an article a couple of weeks ago about the “retirement” of visual novel developer PixelFade Studio. I had reviewed two PixelFade Studio visual novels, ACE Adademy (see review) and Kaori After Story (see review), with the latter checking in as my ninth most-visited article of 2025. Sadly, both of those novels...
I wanted to add an htaccess rule to NLJ blocking requests from empty user agents (and “-” user agengs). I looked into the best way to do it and found a 2017 answer on Stack Overflow. This solution is interesting because it explicitly allows requests to the site’s feed. While I have not noticed empty user agent...
Reuters reports that Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s former placeholder President and current deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, insists that Russia comes in peace: We are not interested in a global conflict. We’re not crazy. Dmitry Medvedev My first thought when reading this was that Mr. Medvedev sounds...
Quoted A tip? Don't use OpenClaw and ignore Moltbook by Rodrigo Ghedin (manualdousuario.net) Regarding Moltbook and its foundation, OpenClaw, I will limit myself* to giving one piece of advice: don't use it. I learned about OpenClaw/Moltbook somewhere in the area of last week in a story about its security issues....
In my previous post, I discussed a fact I learned from Marc Normadin’s Retro XP retrospective on the Nintendo Entertainment System (“NES”) version of Wario’s Woods. Here, I will note a fact in the article that I certainly knew at one time but since forgot (along with the most likely reason I forgot). All of these...
I recall having known that Wario’s Woods was the final licensed game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (“NES”) in North America. But I learned something extra about that previously-known fact in Marc Normadin’s article about Wario’s Woods for NES at Retro XP. Because of the late release date, Wario’s...
I recently argued in a NLJ article that the most important part of being a hero is telling everyone about your heroism. However, that rule does not apply to visual novel development. From January 18 through the early morning hours of February 1, I worked with Victor V. Gurbo to make a visual novel. I was responsible...
