Sony PlayStation no longer wants us to own video games. As I understand, they implied we are only being licensed to the games. Days ago, they emailed users the full Terms of Service or something similar, asserting Sony PlayStation policy. Ok, what's your opinion? Because I very rarely play video games. Plus, I have never owned a console.

TIL about Bubbles, a fediverse-friendly aggregator for small and independent websites (the IndieWeb)

It’s like a very quiet Digg or (old) Reddit. Niche content covered by passionate individuals. The way the web was meant to be. While I wasn’t able to log in with my piefed account, I was able to use my mastodon one, which is pretty cool.

Finished reading: The Mulai by Munir Hachemi πŸ“š β€” recommended by VHBelvadi as part of the IndieWeb Book Club.

This Just In: If you’re super precise and patient (and maybe a little insane), you can completely customize your workflow.

Tue 25th πŸ“† Homebrew Website Club Edinburgh: Writing Hour with IndieWeb Edinburgh, Edinburgh events.indieweb.org

Screenshot-to-design tools flatten a page into an image, then you rebuild it by hand. UnHTML writes native Figma layers instead: real frames, editable text runs, native vectors, and auto-layout mapped from the page's actual CSS.

It runs on your machine. Zero outbound requests with default settings, and remote fetching is a toggle you turn on deliberately.

One-time purchase, no subscription.

I've used Pinboard for years and still love it. I always wished it could help me find what I saved, so I built Batata.

It keeps the Pinboard spirit: your data stays yours, full export anytime, and it speaks the Pinboard API so your existing apps still work. Plus full-text archiving, so you can search by meaning or ask your library questions, with sources.

Free for 100 bookmarks β€” I'd love feedback from fellow Pinboard folks.

Cleaning up duplicate records broke article cards on some Bluesky posts because I deleted the original strongRef they pointed to. 😭 At least comments still work! This is what they should look like, but Sequoia posts don't trigger the OpenGraph image fetch: vert.wisp.place/blog/indieweb/

If the IndieWeb is punk, writing a manifesto with Claude is Good Charlotte.

Continuing my work on adding exercise posts, I think I’ve settled on a microformats structure for them.
