This is certainly not my favourite Carpenter movie, but I think it was totally fine. Although I prefer those wine-sipping romantic European vampire films that this one mocks. I have criticism regarding the reduction of pace in the middle, that strange love story, James Woods’ annoying character, and general more leaning towards an action zombie movie. But I generally liked the acting and characters, Sheryl Lee slowly turning into a vampire, and the whole splattery action at the party in the beginning is pretty damn good.

I built a new website for my old band “Ravage”: totalravage.com.

@Kilian It is also a lot more convenient than Chrome's local override feature and it would go hand-in-hand with Polypane's ability to disable CSP and CORS checks (for which I also needed separate extension, which are now also broken with Manifest V3)

@Kilian I do have a feature wish for Polypane:

Would it be possible to re-implement what the Chrome/FF extension "Resource Override" offered in the past, being that you could define URL patterns for website resources, which you could then remap to another URL or a local file e.g. https://polypane.app/**/*.js -> http://localhost:3000/**/*.js

I use that a lot to develop frontend-code, applying + checking it with the live-site, w/o having to run it via Docker locally.

Hey Ihr beiden! Gerade erreichte mich seitens @spittank folgende Frage zu meinem Post zur Verbesserung von "Find-in-Page" wie im vorherigen Toot verlinkt:

"Sehr spannender Ansatz!
Mich würde interessieren, wie gut das in der Praxis für Screenreader Nutzer funktioniert. Wenn ich damit teste fühle ich mich immer komplett überfordert."

Wie ist Eure Meinung zu "Find-in-Page" generell und zur Idee, Icon-Links oder Icon-Buttons per `hidden="until-found"` auffindbar zu machen?

I originally planned to post regular updates about my Linux experiment. I should not make such promises. But I can report, that I am quite happy with Ubuntu and the ThinkPad so far. I have been using it exclusively to do all of my work for the last couple of weeks. I think, I even might like the keyboard better, than the MacBook’s. The webcam is pretty shit, though. Anything photography-related still requires me to use the Mac, and as I mentioned before, this is not going to change any time soon. But all considered, it is nice to know that relying on 100% free and open source software (and a comparatively cheap laptop) will allow me to do my job just fine.

I am one email away of sending anything mentioning „LinkedIn“ straight to the spam folder.

In my quest to watch every Jim Jarmusch movie at least once, I finally got to see this one. And this didn't disappoint either. The whole premise of a Don Juan type character, named Don Johnston - played by Bill Murray - on an adventure to find of which of is ex-girlfriends send him a mysterious letter, telling him about a now 19-year old son he didn't know about. His neighbour - who, with a wife, 5 kids, and 3 jobs, is the exact opposite of the Don - excitingly planned the whole trip for him and gives him advise throughout the quest. All those characters and situations are hilarious. And it was fun to notice all those parallels to Jarmusch's other movies - particularly Ghost Dog.

A rape revenge story set in 70s/80s NY. Sounded good, looked great, interesting characters and plot. Good one!
