I struggled for about a year trying to solve a problem that apparently turned out to be a hardware bug.

On a whim I installed a decentralized communication platform on a domain that I didn't have any better use for.

I almost engaged with an Internet troll, but then I remembered the Old Advice.

It's been about a month since I installed Matrix. I have thoughts.

If someone has the means, are they obligated to facilitate the usage of the Internet to those that might not (yet) have similar means?

I accidentally started collecting Skylanders a while back, but what am I going to do with them?

I got hold of a small multi-emulator thing for playing games that I already had (of course). Is it worth the pittance I paid for it? Spoiler: kind-of.

In 2005, Roger Ebert said that video games can never be art. Now that he's dead and can't respond, I figured it was time to weigh in.

I historically have spent way too much time obsessing over my website's statistics. I decide to stop.

Every once in a while someone tells me that the Old Internet is making a comeback. I thought about it and this is what I came up with.

I keep seeing people complain that they can't join Mastodon because of a litany of reasons. Reasons that seem to apply equally to email as they do to the Fediverse.

I compare recommending software to pizza toppings. Don't worry, it's short.

Twitter appears to be circling the drain. Now is a great time to jump into the Fediverse. Or is it?

Do you need to enable commments to have a blog? Spoilers: no.

In February of 2023 I did an experiment to see what it would be like if I ignored internet comments for a whole month.

It's been a long time coming, but 2023 was the tipping point for me. I no longer consider the World Wide Web to be generally usable.

I lay out a hare-brained scheme to replace social media with rss feeds.

I get asked a lot why I'm not on social media, so I wrote a page that I could point people to.
