New year, new gear. Every year, in January, I treat myself with a new guitar. This year's pick is an Ibanez IC420FM, a.k.a Iceman.

In September, I visited the Musée Bolo on the EPFL campus in Lausanne (roughly 10 minutes from place). They have a great collection of old computers gathered in a hall. Access is fully free (donations are welcome). buff.ly/4fEjKTP

I've been eyeing on the KEF LS50 since their introduction in 2012. Earlier this year, I finally decided to buy a pair of active LS50 Wireless II. They sound fantastic. I paired them with a Kube 10 MIE subwoofer to add the subtle amount of bass they lack.

It's a great time to donate to organizations that matter to you. My picks this year: - @wikimedia.bsky.social - @Let's Encrypt - @vivaldibrowser.bsky.social I'm focusing on tech this year, but there are obviously many other causes that need help.

I'm done with Safari. Extensions are limited, security key support is broken… I've switched to @vivaldibrowser.bsky.social, which has multi-platform sync (when servers work), and a built-in ad-blocker. And it supports Chrome extensions on desktop (I only need my password manager). Super happy so

Who called a JAWS rip off set in France 'Under Paris', and not 'Shark de Triomphe'?

L'étalonneur de « Furiosa : Une saga Mad Max » be like :

Deux captures d'écran du film Les Visiteurs dans lesquels le personnage Jacquouille, un écuyer du Moyen-Âge, allume et éteint la lumière d'une pièce. Dans l'image du haut, le personnage dit "jour", l'image est très jaune et très lumineuse. Dans l'image du bas, le personnage dit "nuit", l'image est très bleue et très sombre.

When switching email provider: 1. Get a custom domain, and opt for an email service that supports it. You won't have to change your email address if your provider dies. 2. Check that your new provider is not a VC-funded startup that will sell itself to the first bidder.

Privacy-focused email service Skiff just got acquired by Notion, and the service will shutdown after 6 months. Announced on a Friday afternoon, and reddit sub is locked. What a joke...

Let's talk about 'New Outlook’ for Windows. JUST DON’T USE IT. Whatever type of non-MS account you want to add (IMAP, Gmail, Yahoo), you will be informed that Microsoft NEEDS to upload all your emails to their servers. MS doesn't need your personal data. MS wants your personal data.
