you know, every so often i've considered running something public-facing off my home network. but for as much as the idea of hosting personal items off my personal hardware appeals to me, the idea of having it traceable back to my home ip spooks me just enough to not bother going through with it ...

i might be slightly losing my shit here…

as for the track itself, tongai moyo seems to have an unusual approach to song structure where melodic lines arrive, get fixated on, and then leave to perhaps return later. it's easy to vibe along with, even if it's harder to then piece the ...

oh shit it's time to shill chimurenga / sungura / jit / etcetera.

there's something about this branch of zimbabwean popular music that really tickles my melodic sensibilities. i never knew there could be so many inventive ways of weaving melodies around a backbone of exactly one chord progression ...

it's not all that unusual but i've gotten used to having a mouse with too many buttons on it.

it started years ago when i bought a logitech g604 (6 macro keys on the left side) for cheap on ebay to replace the beige microsoft one i had before that.. i could take screenshots and mute my microphone ...

a thread for those who heard Think Different and took it as a challenge

as a creature that is driven by discontent as much as by novelty, i enjoy trying out different ways of being every so often just for their own sake. one day this'll get me into hot water, but until then i like to think that ...

For personal research, journaling, and any form of sysadmin administration I need to do for my home network (writing down IP tables, processes, documenting my setup) I like to use Logseq. It's an Obsidian-like knowledge manager project, but it's FOSS. It's still quite early in its development, so ...

i honestly just spent christmas with my wife lounging around in pajamas. we made it through half of this six-hour video about every nes game without a japanese release , and then we made chicken schnitzel and roasted potatoes for our christmas dinner. it turned out really good!

whatever the fate of this community may be, let's at least try to make it through the year, ne? and with this being the season of spotify wrappeds and such, i think it could be fun to talk about our favorite stuff that we've discovered this year.

over the course of the year i've listened to ...

something old, something new…

“The future? Oh, that happened 20 years ago… don’t you remember?”

ever since i listened to usagi-chang superstar i've been poring through everyone that got a release on the short-lived label , and while i could go on about my feelings for all these ...

i still can't get over this video… the dude managed to take a game that i'd never heard of and probably wouldn't care about if i had and, in an hour, make it something that i now care deeply about the survival of and which i kinda wanna try out for myself now too. it feels like the ...

ah, that takes me back… i remember having to read the stranger for an existentialism class in college, and then one period of reflection and an hour staring at a ficus later, i got it. or, at least i got it to the extent that anyone in college gets anything, which is probably no more or less ...

i've been stuck here for a couple days, trying to figure out how i feel about the opening song on here, but the only concrete feeling i get is that this shouldn't be here . like this cassette art is very adorable, but damn if it doesn't also have that "i made this :)" look to it. but then you put in ...

i've had this melody kicking around for… wait fuck, a year now?!

[…]

will i ever do anything with it? who knows at this point, but i'd like to, somehow.


i guess i tried to uwu

or, i started sketching this out, though partway through the sketching process i ...

Otherwise, I've been playing with Tailscale and it's really cool. Suddenly I can have a personal network I access anywhere I go. Like it's not all perfect — I can't get huge media shares over SMB working flawless — but I can serve myself basic apps built on databases. I can keep central storage ...

i think i have a problem. genuinely, seriously.
or maybe i just can't help myself from trying things, just to see what would happen – or if anything would happen.

anyway greetings from emacs-w3m
