Props to Google Search, I searched for “mcu purple witch name” and it managed to get the expected answer - Agatha Harkness.

They maybe evil but they sure as shit got the great minds keeping them at the top.

This post hasn’t aged well at all. I haven’t opened the game again after that night. I haven’t played any game for that matter.

I am currently re-logging into all my accounts from primary browser Firefox 135 because FF 136 changed something which made https://jiohotstar.com not load at all.

Something about "Cookie key and value size should not exceed 1024 bytes" or something.

Currently downgraded and put firefox to IgnorePkg list (for now). Not happy!

I have a weird bug in Google Maps where it doesn’t update my current location (not when giving directions btw) on CarPlay/iOS app unless I explicitly open the app on the phone while driving.

I tried deleting and reinstalling the app on the iPhone which helped but it didn’t completely fix the bug. It still occurs sporadically but the fix is to set directions to target destination.

This led me down the rabbit hole of alternative Maps providers (Apple Maps & OSM) which ,in turn, made me realise how big Google Maps really is.

Like, a business wins by listing on GMaps (or any stranger with Google account) as they are incentivised to fill more info on Google search pages which in turn feeds Google Maps.

This can increase digital presence as well as the physical store’s sales (walk-in customers from Google Maps based directions).

The alternatives which I’ve looked into are far behind especially in my city and street.

Google should share their map data with competitors for the betterment of everyone but that’s a fool’s dream because “capitalism“.

I've always failed to keep up a daily journaling habit, but with the #hobonichi Cousin I finally manage to write every day, diary style. The dated one page per day really motivates me to fill it up. I look forward to journaling now, and even if very little happens during my day I find interesting things to write about. Thoughts I had, feelings to process....it's all really helpful <3

I am really rooting for #Ladybird browser to be ready so I can jump ship.

Mozilla has clearly lost their vision of being a non-privacy invasive, truly free and open web browser. Their re-wording of the T&C doesn’t mean shit if your identity and ideology has changed.

If I had my way at Mozilla, I would:
1. Close for-profit organisation, kick out the C-suites, hand over any and all power back to the non-profit organisation.
2. CEO is getting a HUGE pay cut. (quit if you are unhappy)
3. Sell the ad company to recoup the costs (might not make a profit)
4. Make sure to restructure the organisation without layoffs (or keep them to a bare minimum).
5. Google money would have to stay (for the next few years) unfortunately until we figure out where to invest/pull out money from.

A man can dream

Thunderbird would still be with us (Love you @thunderbird) though.

Happy to announce I am supporting #Pihole with a recurring donation of 5USD per month.

I realised I’ve been using this software for few years now and their recent update to v6.x has made me realise this.

The update went smoothly - I faced issues with Joost’s Pihole iOS app. It took about an hour to connect to my pihole instance. I didn’t even have 2FA turned on.

I don’t know how it fixed itself but I suspect it to be rpi restart.

Anyways, I got the Pi Hole Remote Plus thing free for lifetime after I restored purchases so that’s cool.

If you’re interested in “#knowledge management” (personal or organizational), I’m curious what is your tool of choice.

How do you know what you think?

Hi everyone,
I’m an artist-teacher, partly at the University of Strasbourg. Alongside teaching, I make films, write, and code art and digital experience for artists, museums.
Here, I’m going to do what I do everywhere else: share my daily life as an artist, teacher, filmmaker, coder

À tous.tes,
Je suis artiste-enseignant en partie à l'Université de Strasbourg. À côté de l'enseignement, je réalise des films, j'écris, je code aussi pour des artistes, des musées et tout des œuvres d'art, des expériences numériques
Ici, je vais faire ce que je fais partout ailleurs , raconter ma life quotidienne d'artiste, de prof, de cinéaste, de codeur.

Those who follow me for a little while already know, I am not producing music at the moment. But creativity still needs an outlet. The other day, I was gifted Samuel Pepys’ diary, close to ten years of daily journaling from the 17th century; which inspired me to do something similar: as of today, I will try to write something (anything, really) on a daily basis. Any topics that come to mind, sometimes quite brief, sometimes possibly more elaborate.

#BTS #diary 2025

For the past few years I've had a BTS diary/ planner. Firstly we had a Dynamite calendar, then a Butter, then Proof diary. I'd expected 2025 to be fluffy sweaters, but it's a choice between two sets of very old photos: Dark & Wild or Love Yourself Answer.

I feel maybe it's a year for an Oxfam charity diary.

I have just bought a stack of red bubble BTS stuff for Christmas though. Like that doesn't count as Christmas shopping.

Found an old diary from highschool, wow I was full of teen angst. The cover photo I added to my profile is a collage of various self portraits I drew, I was in the habit of drawing a self portrait with each entry. I kind of miss doing that, with digital journaling it's all about photos now. I added an entry for today using a sparkly gel pen and drew a portrait of me sitting in my blue chair reading my old diary.
