I come across interesting stuff almost every day, but most of it doesn't warrant a full blog post. Instead, I collect it in daily-ish posts here.
This is also my secret to getting rid of open tabs: Just write two sentences about the tab into something that you can run full text search on, then close the tab. Try it!
Today my sleep schedule is all messed up and I've got a headache, so here are some of my open tabs instead of new things:
Let's Encrypt short-lived and IP address certs – Wikimedia's public DNS service – multi-room audio by the Open Home Foundation – organizing your life in four digits – remote access to vintage Unices – Discord alternatives
Today: Host Europe gets rid of IPv6 – converting LGPL to MIT via Claude? – new ThinkPads 10/10 on iFixit – Prodigy wins second Emmy – 10 % of Firefox crashes are faulty hardware – Toad sings Chandelier – new Archive album
Today: animated bokeh – Wikimedia removing archive.today links – customizable 256-color palette in the terminal – OpenNTPD vs. chrony – fps display in DXVK games
Today: static status pages — easy cases for your KiCad projects — miniature atomic clock — TUI spreadsheets — Bluetooth sensor standard — Steam Machine delayed due to AI — Fediverse hashtags
❤️🩹 Content Note: The following text mentions transmisia, J. K. Rowling, and the Epstein Files.

Before you ask: This category being called "Daily Notes" means that notes can be daily (in contrast to other blogs, which have a "Weekly Notes" category), but if there's nothing interesting on that day, there won't be a post.
❤️🩹 Content Note: The following text mentions Jeffrey Epstein and pedophilia.
Today: Guild Wars Reforged — HOPE lost its venue — Gargron steps down — Android on Linux — trailers for Project Hail Mary and Wake Up Dead Man — the Billie Eilish wall in Berlin — John Oliver about "pedophile math"
This is the first post in the Daily Notes category, where I collect things that I found interesting, but didn't want to write a full blog post about.
❤️🩹 Content Note: The following text mentions transmisia, Trumpism, and right-wing media.
Today: static site hosting — Róisín Murphy's TERFism & a browser extension — WebDAV — CLI-based playing & downloading of streaming music — unlocking multiple disk encryptions simultaneously — mixing colors in CSS — Jimmy Wales walking out of an interview
