The JavaScript Registry looks really interesting, but every time my brain sees JSR, it thinks JET SET RADIOOOOOO!
Everyone else spams the up arrow key to find a previous command when it would have been faster to just type it out? Right?
Server upgraded and everything running again.
Bumped up to 8GB of RAM from 4GB, cleaned out the case, installed a new 4TB HDD, and migrated from Debian to NixOS.
Time for a server upgrade…
Migrating drives tomorrow. If I disappear off Fedi, then I’ve probably killed my database.
Goodbye Xbox 360 Marketplace.
I’ve made so many formative memories on the 360. It’s sad to see its infrastructure slowly shut down, bit by bit.
Spent a bit of time putting together a little tool that lets you search across search engines. You can pick a default and use bangs to search a specific site, like on DuckDuckGo.
Made it mainly for myself, but I’m sure it’s of interest to other people.
Penpot kicks arse! It’s got all the sick layout features of something like Figma but represents them exactly as I’d need to implement them in CSS.
This is sick!
Just successfully implemented a feature I’ve been struggling to get working for yonks, and, as I did, (Get A) Grip (on Yourself) by The Stranglers started blasting.
Feels good.
The phrase “WebKit magic” is something I could live without.

I’ve got a review of the Flipper Zero coming out on my blog tomorrow. It includes my thoughts on the Flipper itself, the Momentum firmware, and some mischievous uses. Stay tuned!
Decided to try music streaming again. The Vengabus started playing. I now remember why I maintain a local library.
Finally gave Zed a quick go on NixOS. It’s slick. The collaboration features are unrivalled.
If someone asks for a code editor in future, Zed is gonna be my suggestion. As much as I love NeoVim, I understand it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I can only see Zed getting better and filling the shoes of VS Code.
Please let this happen. I’ve waited so long.
