Every time I connect an external drive, thunderbolt dock or similar to my Mac and are forced to allow it to connect, I think about this commercial. Those were good times…

I’ve spent a large part of the day today making a generative piece of music, called ”Eftertanke”. The music itself is somewhat sad, but making it has made me very happy. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with it now, but I recorded a couple of minutes of it and have embedded it in this post.

@ReaderJohn Yep, I thought Hillbilly Elegy was a thoughtful book, I’ve lived in southern OH, and for a while I imagined he’d be a voice for a neglected constituency. So there was some special pain in watching his complete moral collapse. It makes you ask, was I fooled? Was he nothing but ambition fr…
I feel the exact same way.

The kind that I respect.”

and tagged it with Kindle For no reason what so ever, this DRM stripper for Calibre seems like quite a useful tool. You’ll need the serial number from your Kindle for it to work. If, hypothetically, I were to do this, I would look in the settings for this information. I would also take a look at this guide.

On February the 26th Amazon will remove the option to download Kindle books directly to your computer. You should probably download your entire library today, and consider never purchasing anything from the Kindle Store ever again.

The trend(?) of selling expensive frozen meals via influencers feels like an elaborate trolling or an art project.
