Misc

It’s been a few days since my last travel update, but a more pressing matter has been monopolizing my spare time: writing a heartfelt message for my son, who is turning 20 this September. This task holds greater significance because my message, along with others, will be compiled into a printed book as a special gift for him.

We met a couple in their thirties, from Dallas Texas, this evening at the cruise opening diner. Eventually, near the end of the diner, politics came up in the discussions. Nowadays, it’s a tricky subject and we don’t force it outselves. We quickly discovered that they were anti-Trump and very caution about the Democrats too. It’s refreshing to meet people coming from those areas of the US that shares some of our views about the US, politics and general values. I’m French Canadian, mind you.

Biden is losing much more by staying than by leaving. His career legacy will be: he lost because he didn’t want to let it go. For whom? For what? A real leader would just step back.

If democrats are really eager to govern the next five years, they will replace Biden. If Biden is a leader, he will step down. A lot of big ifs.

I finally completed the Digital Legacy Management Guide (available here on Gumroad). It comes as a Craft document that can be duplicated as a template, as well as PDF and Markdown files downloads. The goal here is to help people plan for their digital legacy handling.

Should my /nope page go to my blog here or to this hub site? Help me decide.

What’s wrong with this? 🤔🙄

The narrated blog posts are now working correctly on my blog. You can listen to the first post and second one. Disclaimer: I’m using Adobe Podcast Enhance Speech for the post recording audio improvements.

I just created a quick poll on my Ko-fi page! I want to know, “how did you discover me?” Please, fill it in, the post is public! Thanks.

Lock him up NOW. Lock him up NOW. Lock him up NOW. Lock him up NOW. 🤡 #trump

I’m happy to see some countries recognize Palestine as a state. Bravo to Spain, Norway and Ireland. Who’s next, Canada? Israel is furious. Who knew.

I’m curious to know if any of you are using Finder’s Tags. Why do you use them? Do you find them reliable? Thanks!

I rarely do and share selfies! But here’s one. Walking on the “Promenade des anglais” in Nice, France.

It’s funny how my subscribers count can vary after I share a new video on my YouTube channel. In recent days, I got many new subscribers, thanks to a video about building a dashboard with Craft. Then, I share this video about Micro.blog, and many people suddenly quit and unsubscribe¹. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Tempted to start watching “The Last of Us”. But I need to subscribe to Crave apparently. Is it really good? I’m a mild science fiction type of huy. 🤔

Can you imagine having spent $12,000 up-front for Tesla’s “full self driving” only to see it descoped to “supervised driving” and then price slashed to $99/mo? Congrats on being given the privilege of training Elon’s model for a huge fee!

Can you spell “class action lawsuit”?

After much thinking I decided to do some cleaning in my life. And this begins with the closure of my website here. Too much noise. Too much to maintain. Life should be about life, not digital life.

I should visit Techmeme website much more often than I do. I usually end up on this site by coming from a linkpost¹. I should be more intentional and go directly on the site myself. I like this newspaper style.
