> Omarchy is a fascist project that normalizes fascist thinking for everyone entering that community (even unknowingly). The baseline has to be not to use that system. And as people who believe in human rights and dignity, in community and a tech world that can be better we need to oppose Omarchy. Need to make sure...

Almost as soon as we moved back to Denmark in February, we booked a trip to Frankfurt in September. Because a) we suspected that we'd need a break from our daily life, b) I'd need my dose of airplane photography in EDDF and c) food. More to the point, Lufthansa announced yet again that they'll be phasing out the...

Having an exclamation mark in an article title is bad style in my book, but I don't know how else to express my puppy-level excitement after a weekend spent at Danish Air Show 2026. It was indeed the very first time I attended an air show, and it has been a success through and through, starting with the registration...

topgrade — a command-line tool that upgrades everything you have installed on your macOS machine with a single command. System updates, Node, Rust, and Homebrew are all upgraded in one fell swoop by running topgrade. How very convenient!

Even though I use my Bambu Lab A1 mini printer regularly, and I occasionally design my own parts, I still haven't progressed beyond Tinkercad. And why would I? It's simple, and it gets the job done, so I see no reason to complicate my life. There is a fly in the ointment, though: Tinkercad is a proprietary tool, and...

Here's a one-liner to generate PNG favicons in multiple sizes from the icon.svg file using Inkscape on macOS:

Last Friday, I woke up to the news that Codeberg is officially banning vibe-coded projects. And just like that, many of my personal tools have become homeless. So I took down my self-hosted instance of Forgejo because it was overkill for my needs, and I'm definitely not going back to GitHub. What to do? Use my own...

I've had enough of using my Android smartphone for casual snapshotting, I said to myself one day. I climbed to the attic and, after rummaging through boxes of stuff, unearthed an Olympus PEN Lite E-PL7 camera. I won it a lifetime ago when I participated in a photo competition held by Olympus Danmark. It wasn't the...

As any self-hoster would tell you, having a way to access servers running on your home network from the outside world is a must. This explains why services like Tailscale, Zerotier, et al. enjoy popularity with the self-hosting community. Most self-hosters would also tell you that while these and other similar...

Wednesday in EKSN wasn't looking promising airplane-wise, but I decided to bike there anyway, because a) the weather was wonderful, and b) I wanted to test our new backup bicycle that we bought second-hand. But no sooner had I reached the airport than the airport manager (a great guy, I tell you) let me know that he...

Let me explain. First, greed-driven, shareholder value-focused businesses turn the web into a cesspool. Then we're offered an option to pay for a cleansed version of it. I don't have an issue with someone asking to be paid for their efforts to sift through garbage. What I do have an issue with is that only a...
