If you've got a blog no one reads, youtube channel no one watches, twitch channel no one visits, then please read this on how to thrive in obscurity:

New blog post up. An actual blog post this time, not just one of my monthly link roundups.

https://michael.kjorling.se/blog/2025/not-by-ai-badges/

Fair content warning: the blog post *discusses* generative AI including large language models.

I suppose it's half a reply, half an addendum to @rubenerd's https://rubenerd.com/written-by-humans-not-ai-badges/

I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how I can make it easier for people to follow this blog. I usually post a link to any new blog post on my social media accounts, but it’s very easy for people…

I updated my website a little. Really just a little.

Among the changes is a script by
@joel@fosstodon.org that shows you which song I listened to last, according to ListenBrainz. Thank you, Joel, that I can use it!

I updated my blog a few days ago! Every time I do I remember that I want to add much more to it, not just posts but make a different main page and everything. Oh well, for now, I'm just talking about Nintendo's weird return to Virtual Boy.

Just realized something: emoji domains aren’t just cute : they’re mnemonic, universal, and language-independent. 🌍

We’re basically rediscovering hieroglyphs for the digital age: symbols everyone can “read” without translation.

Maybe the web is looping back to its most ancient form of communication: meaning through icons.

Hey, @joel got a call out in the #IndieWeb roundup scroll.....good deal.

Book review - The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi - https://www.sfbookshelf.com/review/scalzi-john-kaiju-preservation-society.php

A fun, lighthearted story of enormous monsters who could destroy the world, and why they need our help.

This is me re-starting reviewing SF books on my own site after a long break. I guess this makes it an #IndieWeb site. I'll copy over my handful of reviews from Goodreads at some point. It feels good to write something for my own site again.

So, in addition to posting cute cat pics, I also have an independent website where I blog about various nerdy things for fun.

My latest post is on "botsplaining," a phenomenon that thankfully doesn't seem to be a thing in the Fediverse! Consider giving it a read, if you're interested.

Oh, and if you do drop by, don't forget to boop the cat! :bongoCat:

I've been writing this article for a while, and it's finally ready to read.

"Diversifying your search engine portfolio"

https://cryptography.dog/blog/diversifying-your-search-engine-portfolio/

tl;dr making the most of modern browsers' ability to configure and dynamically choose from arbitrary search engines, and cutting off a bit of Google's ad revenue in the process

Any personal website owners out here? I'm in need of some new blogs to follow. So if you feel like sharing something you've made or something you like with me, please do.

After adding real function to the main menu or Start menu on my blog a couple of days ago, I continued updateing the design yesterday evening. I added status bars for the windows to improve nostalgic aesthetics and functionality at the same time.

Fun fact: the menu was implemented without JS purely with HTML + CSS.

I also overcame the Android & Safari sizing annoyances by using dynamic viewport height (dvh) instead of viewport height (vh) in the CSS.

1 week until Front End Study Hall 38 - we meet and talk and hash out code and try to solve and understand whatever folks bring with them: HTML-wise, CSS-wise, UX-wise, code-wise, web-wise.
