So, a while ago I gave up on building it manually and just use VSCodium. At least my poor machine won't scream, haha!
22.5.2024 07:31Comment on Compiling Code-OSS from source by Fifo F.So, roughly two weeks ago I finally invested in a new turntable: the Audio-Technica AT-LP120X. It’s no Technics, but it still does its job pretty well. I’m just glad to finally have a turntable that doesn’t have a mind of its own and holds the platter’s speed steadily. I was mainly looking for the following […]
20.5.2024 07:23I can finally play records!UPDATE: the information in this post is no longer valid. I switched from Apache to NGINX and I use a non-Docker install.
14.5.2024 21:40Comment on Mastodon setup challenges by Fifo F.Yo! Today I had the luck of seeing a Google Street View car scanning our streets 🙂 Have you ever seen one? Share your experiences in the comments—I’m curious! And even if you haven’t, I still hope you have a nice day 😉 UPDATE 09/11/2024: I spotted an Apple Maps car today!
28.4.2024 21:14I got lucky today.Side note: - I have a few records that were cut at the wrong speed and I’m very sensitive to it so I’d find pitch control very useful
20.4.2024 09:10Comment on I can’t play records… by Fifo F.So… I’ve been thinking about getting a new turntable, because my current one has been going haywire. Since I’m sensitive to pitch, a direct drive table with pitch control and quartz lock would be good. Maybe I’ll go with the Audio-Technica AT-LP120X for a start. What do you think? Edit: I got the AT-LP120X! It’s […]
14.4.2024 09:50I can’t play records…I recently moved this site to a new server. Please let me know if you experience any glitches—especially because I moved from Apache to Nginx. Thank you.
14.3.2024 20:57Site migrationSo, after a few months of patiently waiting, I got myself a shiny new iPhone 15 Pro Max. I love it! In fact, I’m currently drafting this post on it: I’m really loving it so far. It’s the first phone I have with the pill Dynamic Island, by the way. I went with the natural […]

25.12.2023 11:40Merry Christmas!I ordered a RePSX power supply for my PS1 a few weeks back (and received it yesterday), as the stock one that’s in it gets pretty hot and is less efficient. I also ordered a 12V power adapter along with it. Details below! Package contents The RePSX board itself is packed in an anti-static bag. […]
19.9.2023 04:00I just performed some “surgery” on my old PS1…A few weeks back, I set up my own Mastodon instance on a VPS. Normally, it’s not too difficult, but since I already had a LAMP stack running on it, there were more obstacles to get past! I had to ultimately use Apache as a reverse proxy instead of Nginx, as Mastodon recommends. Also, by […]
19.8.2023 10:00Mastodon setup challengesHowdy, fellow readers! I’ve decided to order a VPS a few months back. That means I can host Discord bots and a lot more! In case you’re curious, here’re the specs. Nothing too fancy: I have a LAMP stack + a copy of Webmin installed on it. For now, I’m hosting a MediaWiki site on […]
19.7.2023 20:56I ordered a VPS some time ago.The post’s title explains it well enough, I’d wager. In case it doesn’t, yes, you guessed it, today’s not only my birthday, but others’ too, like Liz Mitchell’s (Boney M’s lead vocalist) or Christine McVie’s (Fleetwood Mac), for example. Feel free to send wishes for me to digest in the comments below.
12.7.2023 07:30It’s birthday time!Wish me luck, I’m there again. Needless to say, I’m picking up the scanner this time. <strong>EDIT:</strong> Phew, the security guard ignored us this time. Also, that attendant wasn’t there.
15.6.2023 09:53Comment on I was stopped by a security guard at Tesco for the wrong reason. by Fifo F.Even Spotify knows I felt bad about it. From my 1,900-track <em>Liked Songs</em> list, it has started choosing Lightfoot’s songs more often than it used to, I swear.

19.4.2023 15:19Comment on An old-fashioned hobby of mine… by Fifo F.I like getting letters with money in them
19.4.2023 15:05Comment on An old-fashioned hobby of mine… by Quinn B.I actually just sent a letter today! Let me know if you find it as enjoyable as I do.
