Thunderbird is an extremely configurable email client. There are also different levels of configurability: some settings are global to the entire application, some are per account, some are per mail folder, etc. These distinctions are usually obvious and common-sensical, but in my experience, there are some...
Your humble author in 2009, with his last even vaguely cool car, a 2000 Volkswagen GTI. I sold the GTI and left the United States that same summer. I wouldn’t own another car for ten years. Looking back from the vantage point of today, it’s hard for even me to believe, but it’s true all the same: I used to be a...
I’ve been having fun researching a Civil War letter written by my great-great-great grandfather on my dad’s side. Also, in preparation for a possible road trip, I’ve been researching my mom’s family’s migration from Kentucky to Indiana. So expect some blog posts of interest to no one but me!
"Untitled" is the best I can think of, given the subject. There wasn't another title that really fit the best, for me. Will this deter people from clicking through? Maybe.

Twenty minutes home, a couple of minutes to grab it, then perhaps another thirty to get back to the station. I’d lose an hour,...
My daughter collected her GCSEs yesterday and, having successfully achieved the requisite grades for her choice of course, is going to college* in September. This isn’t really my news to share, so I don’t want to get into the nitty gritty about grades and courses and choices (funny how I used to blog everything and...
I'm currently reviewing a KONKR Pocket Advance. In orange. Just look at it: Since this thing looks like a Game Boy Advance and plays like a Game Boy Advance, I decided to mostly play Pokémon(-adjacent) games on it. And that's how I discovered PokeMMO. And can I just say: what the actual fuck?! A fan-made massively...
Oof, I should not be so far behind writing Fantasia reviews that I've got nothing to link to about something opening here. That would be Hot Spot, a sci-fi piece from director Agnieszka Smoczynska that may not be quite so out-there as The Lure and Fugue but is still a lot nuttier than you'd expect considering...
