— Edit September 2023: Also used recently for a fresh install of Thunderbird 115. Still needed in that version too. — Some CalDAV providers, such as Nextcloud, seem to have issues when integrating with Thunderbird. Particularly if you’re running your…
10 years ago Armand van Helden and A-Trak released the track Barbra Streisand as Duck Sauce. A quirky anthem to New York, though I didn’t clock it as one at the time. The track was on heavy rotation regardless, because…
Some time ago, the thought crossed my mind to stop using Amazon the way I had been. Practically every day, and practically everything, I ordered from Amazon. And why? Because the company has managed to optimise its processes to meet…
Purism has been building really good Linux notebooks for some time now. They make a point of using FOSS, free and open-source software, as much as possible. With my recently acquired Librem 15v3, that means having to make do with…

Coincidence couldn’t have been kinder when it served me the Hallo Montag mix by Atjazz on a Sunday evening. Two relaxed but head-nodding hours that still don’t make Monday something to look forward to, but make the journey there more…
A brief introduction: My provider offers 100 Mbps download, but at the time I signed up, they only gave me a Fritz!Box with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, which can’t deliver 100 Mbps due to certain limitations. I then bought a new…
