Recently, I rediscovered Unison. I was also pleased to learn that the tool is available on macOS as a native app. It works well, except one minor limitation: you can create profiles, but you cannot delete or edit them in the app. As I'm not overly familiar with macOS, it took me a while to figure that one out.

No so long ago, I added notes to Tinble. Already then, I knew I wanted something a little bit more sophisticated. Lo and behold, I stumbled on a Admonitions in CSS article describing pretty much exactly what I had in mind. Better still, the author provided a read-made CSS file, so all I had to do it do tweak it...

I wish I came up with this clever pun, but Helsinki airport beat me to it.

An HDMI capture card and an HDMI cable is all you need to stream the video output of a camera to a Linux machine running the VLC media player. This can come in useful when you need to take screenshots of the camera's interface or record the camera activity.

Bad news: installing a network tool broke my internet connection, because the damn thing made changes to the /etc/resolv.conf file. Good news: after some frantic research, the following commands fixed the issue.

dmpop.xyz is one-year old today. I set it up on a whim to serve as my journal. Surprisingly, the habit of documenting my coding and photography exploits stuck, so here I am, writing a celebratory speech. It's going to be a short one. Congratulations to me, let this little place thrive and prosper. The end.

Tinble's appearance is now controlled by the --main-color variable in the styles.css file. But what does this mean? It means that you can change the color of all main elements (title, menus, buttons, and cards) by modifying the default value of the --main-color variable.

I've tweaked the Tinble logo yet again for no reason whatsoever.

Say, you want to use a USB storage device with your Linux home server. All you have to do is to run the mount /dev/sdbX /mount/point/ command as root to mount the device (sdbX, in this case) in the specified mount point. Easy, but hardly practical — because you have to do it every time you reboot the server. One way...

> One industry that hasn't yet gone far through this cycle is large commercial aircraft (i.e: jetliners), which remains dominated by Boeing and Airbus, even within China. But this isn't for lack of trying. China has been attempting to manufacture its own commercial aircraft since the 1970s, and has been following...

The forecast this Saturday looked encouraging, and Flighradar24 promised a rare visitor in our neck of the woods. So I took a bus to NUE after more than a month since my last visit there. The weather didn't disappoint: it was sunny and fairly warm. The rare visitor Boeing 737-800 from Mavi Gök Airlines arrived...

A few week ago, I scored a Fujitsu Futro S720 passively cooled mini PC (technically, it's a thin client) with an AMD GX-217GA processor, 4GB RAM and an 8GB mSATA SSD. All of that for paltry €14,03 — with free DHL shipping included.
