Processing feed items without URLs in Artemis

Artemis, the calm web reader I maintain, supports web feeds marked up with h-feed. h-feed allows you to create a web feed in HTML using microformats. A h-feed may contain zero or more h-entries, each h-entry representing an entry in the feed. For example, my longform feed pa...

Deduplicating posts after URL changes in Artemis

Occasionally, sites that publish web feeds change the URL of a post that has just been published. This can be for several reasons. For example, I sometimes change post permalinks immediately after publishing because I notice a typo, or because the CMS I use calculated a defa...

Small wishes, II

June 21st, 2026 — After my coffee, a thought came to mind: I hope that one day I can see the countryside from a double-decker bus. It’s a small wish. It may never happen but I hold onto the thought any way. I stood at the bus terminal today thinking that it was only a few we...

Was actually quite well done with not much (effectively just one on-camera actor). But I found the plot too constructed and a little incoherent, which made it less spooky than it could’ve been.

What a bloody annoying bitch!

I found this quite entertaining, although it was a little slow to start and it’s really trying hart to be shocking. And I actually found this slightly more funny than terrifying. But it’s a good mix. And the acting was really good!

Loved the ending, which is like the reverse of Romeo and Juliet or something.

Just wondering, has anyone managed to use Birdnet-Pi with the Pi in USB gadget mode? This would make it possible to change the details for the wifi connection when travelling, which is currently extremely difficult, if not impossible, without being able to access all the config options. Wanted advice before I try it. Would it work?

I guess we are having some kind of brownout here in #Rome. Electronics, like an oscillating fan and the laptop charger, are fluctuating on an off, presumably with voltage drops.

There is a strand of thought out there that believes any and all legislation to do with seeds is evil and unnecesary. It is wrong. Here’s why. This is not the sunflower we were looking for This spring, The Squeeze, who delights in dark-coloured sunflowers, bought a packet o...
