🇳🇱 Ik zie toenemende corona-skepsis en wantrouwen in de wetenschap. Dit baart mij zorgen en ik heb er daarom maar een opiniestukje over geschreven: https://proycon.anaproy.nl/posts/corona-skepsis/

Nou, ik ga het er vanavond maar eens lekker van nemen en na 21:00 de container buiten zetten... #avondklok

SXMO 1.3.0, your favourite minimalistic/suckless desktop environment for smartphones like the pinephone, has been released and is available in postmarketOS: https://lists.sr.ht/~mil/sxmo-announce/%3C20210208124655.jzvioyzsbi5huh7d%40worker.anaproy.lxd%3E

🇳🇱 Altijd leuk als Maarten van Rossum aan tafel zit bij #op1 , ben het ook zeer met 'm eens dat we ons niet zo op Amerika moeten blind staren maar meer om ons heen kijken in Europa, naar bv. Duitsland.

I had to get some things out of my system after this week's storm of the Capitol, all the disinformation that incited the mob, the neglect in the face of a global pandemic (that we also see here), so I wrote a blog post: The Disinformation Age https://proycon.anaproy.nl/posts/disinformation-age/

I migrated my homepage from Hugo to Zola and wrote some words about my experience:

After a few days of work, my new simplified homepage is launched! I migrated from hugo, which I found too bloated and complex, to zola. I also removed all external assets and scripts so everything is now javascript free and self-hosted:

I'm starting to see why there are so many static site generators out there... none seems to do exactly what I want (and not too much more than that either). Recommendations anyone?

I regret having made my homepage with hugo two years ago :( It's already become needlessly complex and doesn't build anymore with the latest version, I should have settled on a more minimal generator and theme.

I just discovered that the word "ansible", taken as a name by the automation/provisioning software from RedHat, was actually invented by sci-fi writer Ursula Le Guin! I just finished her book "The Dispossessed" (recommended!), in which the term is used for an instantaneous/faster-than-light communication device.

Sxmo 1.2.0 is released! This is a minimalist and 'suckless' UI for Linux phones such as the pinephone. This release introduces some major changes. Make sure to read the upgrade notes and view the demo video! #sxmo #pinephone

We've been watching "The Man in the High Castle" these past weeks, a dystopian series where the nazis and japanese won WW2. I first read the book (by Philip K. Dick) and then I discovered there was a whole TV series!
