Now listening to: Blackbraid with the album Blackbraid II from 2023. Blackbraid is a Native American black metal project from Adirondack Mountains in New York state. Pretty melodic and brutal, with a lot of focus on nature in the lyrics, good stuff! You can hear hints of Enslaved in the mix.
#Linux laptop users: I’m looking for software that keeps my laptop battery from charging above say 60-70%, any easy and good apps that does the job out there?
@lile.bsky.social Nice! Have you finished it? Yeah a solid game, the social interactions and plots gets more interesting the more you play, really cool work by a small team!
Texts are cognitive or affective tools.
Great piece by Mike Grindle on “Edgelands”, the overgrown and not cared for areas often found between the city and suburbia, the nothingness between highways and so on. The outskirts of Oslo has edgelands for sure, it’s everywhere really. Walks Through The Edgelands
Has anyone here played the indie game The Forgotten City? I just spent a few hours in it. Tons of vibes and beautiful scenery. Really cool to get some horror-light mixed in with the Roman world and mythology. Curious about where this game will go from here. So far I’m just talking to people. #gaming
Deleting people who are now dead (or have been dead for a while) from your contact lists is a very weird and sad experience.
@CRThaze 🙂
It’s raining in Oslo. Listening to Frøkedal and her wonderful song “Hybel”:
Omg did Dropbox finally get a dark theme??
Throwback to that time when my kids still thought I was the guy who invented the PB&J sandwich and they revered me as some kind of creative culinary genius.
Reading «As We May Think» by one of the founders of “tools for thought”-thinking Vannevar Bush (you might have “seen” him in Oppenheimer), fascinating stuff! As We Might Live

“…my beautiful Christians” is the clumsy and reified language of a guy who does not know how to talk about or to the supporters he obviously finds weird but still relies on to win the election.
“Desire is how the self projects itself into, and remakes, the world; aesthetic feeling is how the world projects itself into, and remakes, the self.” Steven Shaviro - Without Criteria - Kant, Whitehead and Deleuze p. 24
Currently reading: Without Criteria by Steven Shaviro 📚 I’ve had this book on my Kindle for ages but I’m finally getting into it and it is sooo good. Thought provoking and clear on the intersection between Kant, Deleuze and Whitehead on aesthetic experience.
Finally found a light/dark theme switcher for KDE Plasma that resembles the Night theme switcher for Gnome: Koi! I compiled it through Cmake but it wasn’t difficult and it works like a charm. Only option I’m missing is a keyboard shortcut to switch between light and dark mode. #kde #kdeplasma #linux
Look what we found! #mushroom
@tsvenson It’s the logical conclusion and responsible answer to irresponsible development and design. Can’t support a site/service that holds user data hostage
New rule: If I can’t easily delete the account I’m not signing up.
I’m in Finland these days, at my family’s place in the archipelago of Ostrobothnia, Replot/Raippaluoto to be specific. I used to spend the entire summer in the area as a kid and wish I could be here more often.
@hyde I know!
@numericcitizen Good and valid point. It's about the quality of the engagement and contact being being made as well, not only the numbers
@eivind Thanks!
@hallvors skal sjekke Felleskjøpet
@endolexis Yeah noticed the same issue!
@forteller @hallvors Lar halve hagen på hytta vokse vilt store deler av sommeren (mange blomster for bier og humler), men bruker ljå en gang i blant. Burde sikkert slipe ljåen for det er litt slitsomt. Aldri testa sigd, hvor får man tak i en om dagen? Jernia gir null treff.
@manton I see, yeah I'm on 14" Thinkpad right now and I can see it needs space to scroll to be able to view the lowest part of the menu. Nice to hear that it is solvable, hope it can be implemented, thanks for your reply!
@gauteweb Takk for tips, skal teste ut nå!
@eivind Hvem er forfatteren? Litt merkelig at de ikke ser dette selv, analogien hen bruker fungerer jo ikke. Men har likevel (nesten) sluttet å spise oppdrettslaks.
@silvermoon82 Hilarious and praiseworthy
@hallvors Så fint. Var selv i Askeladden Suttung barne og ungdomsteater fra 88 til 96, bare gode minner. Mange viktige bidrag fra Refling Hagen.
@cstross Well put and important message from Nandy indeed, promising
@mangochutney cool picture, really like the colors!
@poiseunderchaos I should just cancel my DistroKid sub and get the hell away from Spotify
@gauteweb "Krenke den offentlige bluferdighet" 😆 Har styret binga for mye britisk/viktoriansk kostymedrama?
@frank Hi Frank, came over this post while searching for a solution to the same challenge: posting to Micro.blog with Emacs. I'm trying to do as much as possible in Emacs/Org-mode these days, it might replace Obsidian for me, but it's so much to take in and learn. Did you find a solution to the org-to-md + remove frontmatter problem? I can always just do a regular org to md conversion in Emacs and then yank and paste the post on Micro.blog but I was hoping to find a smoother solution. I have searched for packages but have found none. We need a package like the Micro.publish-plugin for Obsidian :)
@natureworks Yeah I feel Koala hit the right balance between features and easy of use and also a general good design for a mobile OS. I've made som really cool stuff on it and it's a lot of fun. When it comes to hardware I am an Elektron-dude mainly, I have promised myself not to buy another Elektron-box/instrument before I actually finish more music. 😀
@natureworks Good luck with your music! GAS is real (I am mostly over it thank god). And welcome to Koala Gang!
@KimberlyHirsh Yeah definitely, and especially in continental philosophy that’s still base itself on commentary on the classics in giant tomes, analytic philosophy is more like “here is my paper on X, everything you need to understand or critique it should be within these 10-20 pages”
@KimberlyHirsh I’m just doing it for fun these days, believe it or not!
@Moondeer I really hope you will experience this one day, tell us how it was
@bobwertz I'm going to get into that as well, eventually. But at the moment I'm just trying to find time to write and post
