HP is receiving backlash after users reported that their non-brand ink cartridges stopped working following recent firmware updates.
I’m very supportive of reducing work hours and days. I’ve recently got to unofficially try it out myself, because I asked for Fridays off for a couple weeks so I have some longer weekends to work on a university assignment. That would permit me more time to work on it, or at least have one day for rest and fun, one day for chores and errands, and one day to put in a lot of work.
I’m surprised by the fact that I don’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would. It made me feel a little lost, and a little like those bad Sundays where you feel bad and depressed about your life, and like you should be doing something great but aren’t. And everything you think of doing sucks, isn’t available, or something you don’t wanna do right now. Or like in school days where the summer break started to feel boring and you caught yourself looking a bit forward to school again. I wonder if this is me being an indoctrinated worker being so used to 5 days, or if it’s my work circumstances or private circumstances?
Last night about 9:00pm AKST I observed that atmospheric pressure had jumped up and the skies had cleared up. The NWS forecast had predicted 50% cloud cover so this was unexpected. I’m getting pretty good now at gathering up my telescope supplies and getting my telescope assembled, so I was out at the boat launch and had everything set up in about 30 or 40 minutes.
The temperature at the boat launch was 5 °F, which was a big improvement over the -20 °F evenings I’ve been working with. The boat launch was getting a bit crowded since it was a warm Friday night and there was a campfire party going on, but I found a darker area to park in. The skies seemed very bright, which I think was due to light from the gibbous moon a little under the horizon. But I was able to find a darker patch of sky to the south east.
I’m making instant coffee and slowly waking up. It’s Saturday and I’m up just after 7.
There was supposed to be a storm sweeping in starting late last night, but that hasn’t happened yet. The environmental services are still calling for a big dump of snow, but I woke up this morning, looked out, and nothing. The same melted and refrozen drifts, the same semi-bare streets.

I was originally interested to see what the capabilities of this device were, especially as a target for postmarketOS, which I found particularly compelling from a technical standpoint. Since that time, my PinePhone has come to serve a unique role in my computing life; the battery is far too limited to allow the device to be a useful daily-driver cell phone, but having a very small linux system with the full capabilities of graphical Emacs, desktop Firefox, and a physical keyboard with support for commonly used meta keys has proven invaluable in a number of situations.
I have a complicated relationship with Youtube like, I imagine, a lot of people. While I really dislike everything that Google is doing with the platform and their idiotic algorithm, there are tons of exceptionnaly good content on the platform.
You can find everything regarding computer science, 3d printing, physics talks, video games, history and so much more. It’s full of dedicated people talking about their passion. I used to only use the “Subscriptions” page of Youtube. The default home page has always been irrelevant, and the Popular tab is just plain cancer.
Several years ago I wanted to have a way to share short thoughts, and found items (links, images, and the like) on my website. Most of the website is made up of markdown files that render into HTML and while this isn’t difficult to update on a real computer it is cumbersome on what passes for the state of the art in mobile operating systems these days so I wanted something that I could post to using a web browser. I ended up building the resulting microblog system out of several Microsoft Azure services, namely Functions, Storage Tables, and Storage Blobs. Later, when I built this Gemini capsule I wanted to bring that content across so I wrote a Python program that fetches the data from the API and renders it out to gemtext and an Atom feed.
As everyone else around here, I love a good tracking of visitors.
Kidding… screw that.
However, I feel it’s pretty good to know if your capsule gets any traffic at all and which part of it people find it more interesting. Some may not care, some may.
This is why I’ve modified shavit to support sending traffic data into InfluxDB.
Mastodon has a feature which enables you to verify that a website in your profile belongs to you [1], and I’ve now added the same capability for website and blog links in Epicyon [2].
