Previously, on this blog, I have mentioned Mastodon – the free and open source social network that is akin to Twitter. The more keen-eyed reader might have also noticed that my username on Mastodon was @lychee@mstdn.io If you have never heard of Mastodon before and wonder how it’s different from Twitter or Facebook, then you […]

Fuck the Tories.
This year is the first time in an election that I haven’t voted The Green Party of England & Wales. In a way, I feel sad about this. My vote is counted in a part of the country where there is traditionally a Labour Party stronghold and the next contender would be The Conservatives, who […]

Back to basics
For a while I felt like I was spending way too much time staring at my mobile phone. From the minute I would wake up in the morning, to going to bed at night, I clearly was addicted to the bright lights of the screen. This was confirmed when I installed ActionDash on my mobile. […]

An update on Otto the seagull
It doesn’t seem that long ago since I took in a baby seagull and started to feed it every day. Three times a day. And mop the basement floor twice daily. Taking in the baby bird, which my wife named Otto, required a good amount of dedication to ensure the basement didn’t smell like a […]

So Cow

Links of the week
This week, where highlights include playing Android: Netrunner with my friend Tor for four hours straight and carefully positioning a drinking glass between my cat’s bottom and the litter tray in order to catch some pee, I read some news online. I don’t even know if I need to explain any more. Everyone has hobbies, […]

Zcash – it’s like Bitcoin, but private
When I was younger I remember an old friend of my dad’s came to the house. It was back when you accessed the internet via a dial-up connection and spending time on the internet meant that you couldn’t make phone calls. The man in question was holding a pink pig. Not a real one. A […]

Links of the week
People like pictures, right? I’m going to try and make future links posts a bit more colourful than previous ones by throwing some pictures in there – maybe some alternative styling along the way. The meat of the post will still be links, but the pretty pictures will make it more digestible. Speaking of digestible […]
