“Kagi search and Orion browser enter public beta”

It’s a paid search engine with no ads and no tracking for $10/m. I’ve been in the closed beta for a few months after using DuckDuckGo as my daily driver for years.

Will I stay and pay? I don’t know yet. I’ve noticed “spammy” sites are less likely to get surfaced. I’ve rarely reached for “lenses”, but that’s probably more based on what I’ve been searching for than the feature itself.

One of the Love-in-the-Mists in the garden got broken off, so I bought it inside so I can enjoy their complexly-structured flowers a little early @plants

Also incredible shade from the rail map not marking a single part of the entire Dutch rail network as ‘scenic’ 👀

After much scribbling on maps, I think me and my partner have sort of figured out our Interrail itinerary, so a) I am vibrating with excitement at the thought of All The Trains :ablobfoxhyper: and b) if anybody knows cool things to do in and around Rotterdam/Cologne/Vienna/Ljubljana/Zürich/Paris this autumn I’m all ears

I suddenly realised that I hadn't updated my personal site for about eight years, so it was woefully out of date in many, many ways. I whipped up a quick replacement yesterday. Just plain HTML and CSS, nothing fancy (but it does support dark mode using CSS custom properties and the prefers-color-scheme media query, which I've not done before!)

Some more work required, hopefully before another eight years pass! Let me know if it looks weird or broken for you! alexreid.org

Here’s an absolutely genius film project by Eimear Walshe. I saw it being exhibited at the IMMA down in Dublin last week. It’s about land ownership, and how it affects everything we do. It’s also hilarious: youtu.be/Upml4hCpEio

Typed in a little #BASIC program I found on the internet to generate some artwork on my #Atari. This took way longer than it should have but scroll through to see what it produced.

bored of free, open source software. i am now only interested in "win32 shareware and abandonware"

- fast on modern computers
- extremely large catalog, basically infinite
- huge variations in quality, mysterious
- usually just like 1 exe file
- try it! dont like it? delete it!
- consistent UI look-and-feel
- when it's not visually consistent it's at least Visually Rad
- no source code no cheating
- modify functionality with game trainer Poke utility, resource editor, or cracked copy of IDA Pro

My favourite swipe typo of the day: "Norse cancelling headphones". Presumably that means Bluetooth is turned off.

For some reason, today I’m finding myself making a thread about plastic boxes. I actually had it drafted for one or two years and never published it, but some exciting new drama in this captivating saga made me complete it today 🙃

Food (?), coffee 

This mug has me thinking I need to try for some thematically-appropriate latte art rather than my standard tulips and floretes :blobfoxthinking:
