I had no idea how entertaining it would be watching punks kick the shit out of and eject an old Nazi from their festival in Vegas while the cops watch with little interest.

But I liked it. A lot! More of this, please!

Readeck 0.19 is out!
It adds a new mosaic view, lets you share bookmarks by email, brings back the good old SQLite driver and fixes some bugs.

One translation (Portuguese from Portugal) didn't make it to this release but I'll publish a patch release once it reaches the 90% completion.

If you've been using application passwords, you'll have to migrate to API tokens but it's a one time annoyance.

Enjoy and welcome to Pocket users!

I don't want an 'AI assisted life'.

I want trees, forests, wild plants and animals. I want to eat good food produced locally, with minimal environmental impact. I want a free society that works for everyone but especially those in need, not just a few billionaires. I want a life full of magic and wonder at the natural world. I want to live a good life alongside every living thing on the planet.

I do not want AI slop.

Announcing: https://justaqrcode.com.

Tired of "free" QR code generators that are full of ads and trackers, that share your data, and that want to sell you something? Me too. Here's my act of resistance: I made a one-page site that works entirely in your browser to generate a simple QR code. And that's all it does. You can download the HTML page and run it locally, even. Read the source; nothing up my sleeves. Just a QR code.

My offer to you -- I will continue to pay for the domain name and web hosting for it, myself. If you find it valuable, you can pay it back by creating your own useful thing for the world and releasing it for free. Let's take back the friendly web, one vexingly-monetized utility at a time!

Really struggling to be on Mastodon because everyone I follow is (very lovely and brilliant) very right on, very left wing, and very morally outraged. Obviously with very good cause, but I really miss the silliness of old school twitter when it wasn't just an echo chamber of doom every time I logged on. Who can I follow that just toots memes and daft shit to make me smile? Or has a lovely account that isn't frequently tweeting politics? Would love recommendations to try balance my feed out ❤️

@adele ˋgjˋ and ˋgkˋ allow you to move the cursor to the character in the next or previous display lines, even when lines wrap (see ˋ:help gjˋ and :help gkˋ).

It is not recommended to map that to ˋjˋ and ˋkˋ as it changes the way distances are computed in cursor movements, but you can bind this to the up/down arrows:

ˋˋˋ
nnoremap <Up> gk
nnoremap <Down> gj
xnoremap <Up> gk
xnoremap <Down> gj
inoremap <Up> <C-O>gk
inoremap <Down> <C-O>gj
ˋˋ
for normal, visual and insert modes.

🚀 Voyager 1 isn’t done yet — not even close 🧠🔧📡

NASA just pulled off another miracle save:
🛰️ The spacecraft’s primary roll thrusters, offline since 2004, were believed permanently dead
🧯 With backup thrusters at risk of failure, JPL engineers gambled on a high-stakes heater reset
🔥 If wrong, it could’ve caused a small onboard explosion
📡 If right, it would restore control — 15.6 billion miles from Earth

They were right. The thrusters fired. Voyager 1 can still hold its course.

This wasn’t a reboot. It was old-school problem-solving, deep systems knowledge, and the audacity to trust an idea that might just work.

The most distant human object is still flying — because a team believed it could.

Did Luigi Mangione save lives as he killed Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare...the CEO of the health insurance company that denied his mother care so the CEO could increase their corporate profit?
Did Luigi save lives?
Yes....LUIGI DID SAVE LIVES!!!!
