📝 February 2026 Blogroll: Share your blog posts!

I feel a certain level of vulnerability when sharing my blog posts since they are usually personal with no Internet-related Big Topics (but I think this is just how I have always blogged on LJ and etc in the past)

some of my more substantial posts from this month:

thank you for reading if you do!!

I’m also curious - how often you like to update, and do you keep a schedule?

And as a reader - do you have a preference on how often you see updates. I like seeing blog posts so I like seeing what anyone updates no matter how long/short the post is.

Happy Lunar New Year to you! I won’t be doing any visiting this year, but I’ve got plans with some other exchange students to do a little CNY dinner of our own :pixelcat1:

I’ve written a blog post about That “Me in 2016” Social Media Trend. I’ve been blogging for years, and on my current site since 2011. So there have been blog posts from that year (it was a big year for me!)

hi! thank you for visiting/commenting.

i will not approve the test comment but yeah it seems to cut out on my end, not yours i probably should then set an actual limit on text area. i might’ve set a maximum in backend and forgot about it bc forgetting sounds like me, lol

I’m a sucker for prettifying whatever I’m using, and Kubuntu seemed the best option for that specific aspect. I cannot tell you how much fun I’m having customizing fonts, icons, cursors etc. :grin:

But for basic use I think Linux Mint or Ubuntu would suffice. Those were the ones I had used in the past, many moons ago.

Yeah… I am going THROUGH it with cloud back up, next I’ll be trying pCloud which is also cross-platform.

But I encourage the switch! I’m not a techy person by any means and I’m having a lot of fun on Kubuntu and setting up everything.

Oooh I’ve been eyeing this one for a while now! Interesting to know the bluetooth range is better than expected.

I loved the stickers you used on it! Where did you get them?

Love the stickers you used, especially the koi! Enjoyed reading about your experiences with your new player and how great that some things were better than expected.

Hello bello! I write a lot, so I’ll just share a couple posts I’ve written this month that I really like.

  1. This is a bit of a licensing guide for open-source projects (coding and writing):
  1. This is a technical deep-dive on a malware campaign I found:
  1. These are some thoughts I have on absurdism and the good we can do in the present moment now:

Thank you! mostly on Etsy or gifted from my spouse, the cat one is from this sticker sheet that I love so much. The goldfish are one of those papery-textured Japanese stationery stickers so I coated them with clear nail polish. The case mostly protects the ones on the back

Yeah, the same day I left that comment, I decided to try it out. I had Kubuntu up and running on the laptop in less than an hour and a half! It was surprisingly easy. It looks quite nice. Now I’m interested in trying out other distros just for the heck of it.

This is a heavy topic (CW: references to some pretty traumatic stuff), but one I needed to write about after listening to a devastating interview between 404 Media and a Kenyan man who previously worked as a data labeler for generative AI companies. Just want to raise more awareness about this, as this was something I previously knew very little about.

Trying to keep the ball rolling with dev log posts for my next game… This time it’s sharing two Tiled plugins I made to solve a simple issue:

The post on the Triton malware fork was fascinating (and a good reminder for me to never consider returning to GitHub).
