Some 2026 minor changes to the website:
 
  * Since there are no more notes, people interested in my movie watching and 
  possible reviews can check out this page[1], which is constantly updated. 
  Favorite films have a separate page[2].
  * I’ve put up a basic page for Umber[3], which is the custom software that’s 
  powering up the Café[4]. Speaking of the Café, there is a Request invite[5] 
  page now (powered by Umber’s framework), which can be used to … request 
  invites, so don’t e-mail me about invites anymore.
  * The notes tagged with #ideas have been migrated into this page[6], which is 
  constantly updated too.
  * The guestbook[7] is now read-only because someone considered it fun to pump 
  500 spam messages into it, daily, and while messages were not public and 
  required manual approval, this was something I didn’t want to do for the rest 
  of my life. Spam always wins.
  * I’ve removed the contact information from the about page[8], people who want
  to speak to me know where to find me. And how.
 
For people wondering, yes, I’m still using my 2004 iMac G5 daily. It works great
and I don’t need anything more. For movie watching I have a separate setup, and 
I remote twice per month into a M1 MacBook Pro that’s with my parents, so I can 
build the Ladybird web browser[9] for people using macOS Sequoia.
 
On the personal side, the word of 2026 is DISCONNECT. Good movie too (the 2012 
one). My web browsing time is limited now and I’m using the WiFi off toggle 
more. Besides, not like there is anything interesting left online, right? I used
to look at the Internet and go “this is humanity’s greatest achievement”.
 
Now can barely look at it at all.
