Here’s Terry B’s highlights following Monstertrack 2025 winner Emma Missale on her fixed-gear no-breakes bike through New York. You can also watch the full race, if you have two hours to spare.
Not too much gore here - although the ending is hilariously excessive in that regard. It's more of a murder mystery. And it has indeed quite a lot of great ideas and encourages you to solve it yourself. Good one. But: Catholics again 🙄. And what's up with that slow-motion water in that aquarium?
A mystery thriller set in the Vatican. And all the gossiping cardinals are no better than ordinary men. Well, apart from the newly elected pope. And then this ending. Catholics 🙄.
I never listened to Destruction all that much. But I had a great evening at this premier at the cinema with friends, the film crew and a few beers (and a whole bunch of other metalheads). Entertaining movie about a sympathetic band and how difficult it was during the pandemic for a band that usually plays around 150 gigs per year.
I started sorting out my blog posting workflow again. Ever since the Git-based CMSes stopped working, I posted considerably less. I’m using Jekyll to build this site; and creating a file, adding all the frontmatter, making a Git commit and pushing the repo is just too much overhead for me.
So now I have started to automate all those above steps. For now, this works on iOS/iPadOS for my Notes. I currently start writing in the Drafts app; then I can trigger one Shortcut which handles everything else for me via the Working Copy app. And Gitlab CI builds the page as usual.
I cut a little 2 minute video from a handful of phone recordings from our gig last saturday.
I see some nice activity there on the Mozilla bugtracker for an implementation of `hidden=until-found` 😍
Oh my way to Zürich (via Basel) to meet Claudio. We do this every couple of months to get on the same page and talk shop. Despite communicating every day it’s important to do thi in-person meetings every once in a while. Also: A welcome change of scenery (it has been a while) which should hopefully result in some different photos from the usual.
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.
