couldn't muster a whole lot to say in this weeknote but I wrote it, and that's all that counts in the game of "write a blog post every week"

I’m doing some digital archaeology. I was reading some web pages last updated in 1996 and they’re just as usable now as they were then. The secret is plain #HTML and no #CSS. The #indieweb should be more about this and not all the distracting and fragile bells-and-whistles that we’ve added over the past decades. Less really is more.

@enocc @powRSS Just added to the #indieweb section of my feed readers!

I took a little break from all the Serious Stuff™, by answering the questions asked by David, "Ten pointless facts about me":

Thanks for the inspiration @daj I don't know how I've missed this, hope it's not too late to join 😅

What do centuries-old stones, a self-winding watch and child's sock have in common?

Such time capsules often hide in our cupboards: lost treasures, family heirlooms, old diaries or dry pressed flowers. It is not their monetary value that matters, but the stories they tell.

After reading similar posts from @AlexWolfe, @daj and @hryggrbyr, I started to think of my own list.

New post! A reminder to myself that my site doesn't have to be like everyone else's. #bearblog #blogging #smallweb #indieweb

I've written a little script for the @powRSS account to find posts from the Random section on the site.

The idea is to bring visibility to older blogs which may not have published recently.

This in turn means you can now follow powRSS in your #RSS reader for the occasional low frequency dip into #indieweb discovery.

2026 Weeks 3 & 4

https://blog.lmorchard.com/2026/01/23/w04/

TL;DR: We lost Catsby, which sucks completely. 3D printing experiments with glow-in-the-dark filament and blacklight LEDs. Discovered Pangolin for homelab tunnel magic. Pondering SID chip replacements for the C64. Brief flirtations with Animal Crossing and Persona 5. Links about woodworking, AI slop, silicon ice age nightmares, and other assorted topics.

Digital Self-Reliance: Audio Edition

As we continue to move into 2026, I want to talk about my continued journey towards digital self-reliance. This time, I am focusing on my audio needs.

Good analysis from Laurens Hofs on ICE getting a verified badge on Bluesky and the resulting fallout. It underscores some confusion in the fediverse about what Bluesky is:

When fediverse users say they don’t want to be bridged to Bluesky, they’re applying an ActivityPub mental model to ATProto infrastructure. In one sense this is a bit of a category error, the bridge connects to networking infrastructure, not the application.

He doesn’t let Bluesky off the hook either, though. Good points on how ICE presence alone (without any posts) is a fear tactic.
