A log of changes to the structure, functionality, and design of BurgeonLab.com.
🎧 Lifeless Birth – Necrot
Just so much great riffing going on in this collection of fantastic songs. They have enough non-4/4-parts and tempo changes to make it interesting without making it hard to follow. There are some tasty guitar solos, too. “Drill the Skull” is my favourite, with this insanely awesome middle section.
This week, the second Homebrew Website Club Düsseldorf took place. This time, 5 people attended. After a round of introducing each other including website, we once more had a good chat about a variety of IndieWeb topics. And this time, we all did some coding, too. For example, Jochen made some commits to his django-indieweb project, Mark added some rel=me links and Microformats markup, and I fixed my Atom feed’s updated date to truly show the date they have been updated (which is quite relevant for example when sending WebSub notifications).
You know the problem when you accidentally or naively committed on the main Git branch, but then you’re too far coding something that turns out to need more and more (unexpected) work, and you find yourself not able to deploy to production? Yep, happened to me today (again).

🎧 Empros – Russian Circles
This was my entry album into Russian Circles. And it’s still my favourite, probably because of being my first. We saw them on tour back then in Auckland, NZ. And I still remember how that end part of “309” blew me away: first that drum beat, and then this thunderous bass. So heavy! And even better live.

🎬 A Girl Named Willow

Solide Unterhaltung. Der Wald war cool, Max Giermann war cool. Der Tochter hat's gefallen. Wir haben im Kino zu viel Popcorn gefuttert.
Florian asks everyone to please add their email address to their RSS feeds. Because then, FeedCity lets you directly reply to any of that feed’s posts via email (it’s a simple mailto: link).
Of course, I want you to do this, too! It’s one of those many underutilised data from a feed that can be really useful.
One thing to note is, that FeedCity won’t show the email reply button publicly (in FeedCity, all feeds have a public page) – it’s only shown for logged in users (or “citizens” as I call them). Prevents any email harvesting bots from gathering those addresses from the site.
🎬 The Nice Guys

Ha, nice! Had a great time with this last night. Maybe I was a little too tired to follow the fast-paced plot and its twists and turns at all stages. But regardless, this was really funny, had great action, great dialogue, and the two detectives were just perfect. I especially like Ryan Goslings acting. A movie I could easily enjoy multiple times.
🎬 A Clockwork Orange

Wow, I haven't seen this in a long time. And I pretty much couldn't remember the second half. Enjoyed this a lot. The characters, the sets and the visuals in general, the soundtrack. The content is often questionable. It's partly gross, yet cheekily funny, but always entertaining.
The interesting thing to me when watching old classics like this, is how I discover how influential they have been. Or at least I think I do see those references in other movies. Anyway, I saw elements of Wes Anderson, Michael Haneke and Yorgos Lanthimos in there; and certainly forget a whole bunch of others.
Saw this at the Metropol, where the staff gave yet another lovely introduction to the film.
Homelab V1
My Homelab has hit its first milestone 🚀
Using Terraform as the Inventory for Ansible
Terraform and Ansible are complementary tools with which you can do Infrastructure as Code. You would use Terraform to request machines from providers and then Ansible to configure them. Using both of them together, with a dynamic inventory to link them, has been technically possible for years but never obvious enough for me to work out. Until I found the Terraform provider.

Obsidian
Obsidian is my personal knowledge management (PKM) system of choice. I had it already in use since its alpha period, but rediscovered it again in 2023. In the meantime, cool features had been added, such as live synchronization across multiple devices via a free plugin (so you don't have to rely on the paid service Obsidian offers itself).
Nowadays Obsidian is the daily driver for my knowledge collection, gathering inputs from various sources such as Readwise, Goodreads, Snipd as well as manual input. It has replaced Evernote in this regard which I used for many years.
Obsidian also powers this website via its digital garden plugin. For now, I couldn't be happier with the workflow that allows me to publish notes from my Obsidian vault to the website with three clicks.
Oh, I never linked to Florian’s full gallery of Beyond Tellerrand 2025 photos. You might spot me in those!
As someone who has been using their iPad for most of their mobile computing tasks, I very much welcome all those new updates coming with iPadOS 26.
