dsgn by wnpl – wtf!?
Moin, ich bin Stefan Winopal und ich liebe Design, vor allem wirklich gut gemachtes Branding mit Liebe zum Detail. Jeder der das von sich sagt, hat wahrscheinlich beruflich damit zu tun – so ist es auch bei mir. Seit rund 20 Jahren bin ich auf die eine oder andere Weise mit Design beschäftigt. Außerdem liebe ich schreiben, auch das habe ich schon professionell gemacht, aber Design lässt mich einfach nicht los. Ich starte diesen Blog als Hobby, weil ich so hoffe, beides ein wenig verbinden zu kön...In eigener SachePinned
the prelude
— from Book XII of The Prelude by the English Romantic poet William Wordsworth On an infinite timescale, this blog may venture to many places. For now, I plan to recount my thoughts regarding the era known as The Second Coming of Steve Jobs as it shaped a great deal of who I am and what I love. I want to share my memories of the moments, why I bought what I did, and discover why I may have missed out on some beloved products. Photo by Samantha Moore (March 2001)PinnedPage
All Government Is a Tech Company Now (And This Is Not Going Away)
Brazil's Central Bank, the Banco Central do Brasil (BCB), is responsible for Pix. It is the country's instant payment rail, launched in November 2020, that reduced peer-to-peer transaction costs to zero and processed R$ 26.5 trillion in 2024 alone, a 54% increase over the prior year, across 63 billion transactions. Pix now moves more volume annually than Visa and Mastercard combined. It runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And it is operated and supervised by an institution that, between 2009...Digital public infrastructurePinned
Bandcamp Friday Recommendations - May 1st, 2026
Welcome back to ULTRAVIOLET-VISIONS, now with a new home! Previously, our blogs were hosted through Tumblr but it's been a while and now there are more blogging tools available than ever. I chose pckt.blog since it's free to use, highly customizable, and connects directly through our Bluesky account through AT protocol. Ideally in the long term we'll have our own website built to host all of our blog posts as well as the UVF music catalog, but in the meantime this is the place to be! While I'll ...2
Mystic of Sodom: Flowered Moon
Two years have passed, and yet, I’ve learned so little. They say sorcerer is synonymous with secret, but the expression speaks so little to the absurd tasks filling my days. However, he would balk at the word ‘sorcerer’, a man of the unknown sciences, he calls himself. I, the would-be apprentice, follow each task to the letter. Even now as the soreness and pressure grow at my base on this languish walk home. The earlier excitement already faded to a memory. Constant repetition made all singular ...chastitygayChastity

When you're a whole on the internet
Most of us exist online as a jigsaw puzzle scattered across a table. A LinkedIn profile. A Bluesky account. An old Twitter handle. A forum username from 2009. The pieces are all there, but assembling them takes work, and that friction, it turns out, has been doing a lot of social work that nobody explicitly designed. The HTTP-era internet was never built with identity coherence in mind (or, identity at all). Each service captured a slice of you independently. The result was fragmentation by acci...1

Introduction (aka: diva who is you)
Internet introductions are so cringe, but #ToBeCringeIsToBeFree (_ _|||) Basic Information —My name is M., I am a mid-to-late 20s they/them thing from Alabama, but currently transplanted into Chicago. How The Hell Did You End Up Here —Honestly, my friend Atila (https://pckt.blog/b/atilacore) showed me their blog on here and I about lost my marbles... what do you mean blogs are back... I haven't felt a high like this since 2011 and I was introduced to Tumblr, or maybe even GoodReads. (P.S: Follow...Pinnedm.docx
New Quater Who Dis?
I've had a bio card for a while now - a couple of years at least and I've only updated it like twice so I thought while not a lot has changed about me that I want people to know on first meeting I did want to make some minor changes. So here it is. And because I'm trying to go harder on the whole YouTube creator thing I even made a little short you can watch of my process. https://youtube.com/shorts/nUrIul4iCMs?feature=shareAs Always ImaniPinned
Mi primera lección de arte
De pequeño quería ser astrónomo, pianista, biólogo, meteorólogo y periodista; me fascinaba escribir, la música, los planetas y galaxias, la tecnología, y pintorrear manchas porque me aburría dibujar; luego me dio por la bioquímica, la geografía, la climatología y la publicidad. Sin embargo, de las matemáticas sólo me llegaron a divertir las integrales. Eran tan variadas mis preferencias que nunca tuve muy claro qué ser de mayor. Tantas que casi ninguna. Siempre atribuí a mi madre la suerte de ha...relatoPinned
Pinned Post 📌
I absolutely needed to make a new pinned post on BlueSky for 2026. So I decided to make some cute little graphics with some of my favorite colors (black and red) and my favorite shapes (hearts). Being an adult content creator, I wanted to highlight some of my favorite pictures, my most important links, the things I offer and a couple quick facts about me. I totally think I nailed my goals with this pinned post!PinnedBlueSky
Built for Access: How Brazil's Identity System Opened a Door It Wasn't Designed to Close
Part 1 of 2. This piece covers the history of digital identity in Brazil and the data infrastructure that made industrial scale fraud possible. Part 2 covers how fraud co-evolves with digital infrastructure, and what that means for every country building digital infrastructure for identities today. We tend to talk about digital fraud as if it were a technology problem. A bug to patch, a model to retrain, a vendor to procure. But the deeper you look at how Brazil's identity infrastructure actuall...identityPinned
Mu Dhéidhinn Slighe Gu Slàinte
As this is a micro-blogging site, which has few users, I may just use it to vent about what's happening on my journey to health, i.e. Slighe gu Slàinte.I suffer from multiple chronic conditions. Some days I'm fine, sometimes all are kicking me around, but mostly only one is having an impact. I never know which it's going to be, and the situation can change from minute to minute, hour to hour, etc. I'm struggling to get my health back on track, but it feels like I'm losing the battle most of the ...Pinned
Hello world - How a Vtuber Rat made me keep going forward
It's been a while since the last time i blogged! (i think it was 2008~ or something like that), no being a social person kinda had me at the time to make little scribbles to post and talk about mundane things that happened during my days, but as internet just become more and more about "being the popular one" instead of "being around what i'm interested" it just got way less comfortable in my own space, which sucks cause i love helping people out with things, and it got harder and harder to do i...VtuberTechnology
Installing an AT Protocol PDS on a Synology NAS
My (completely biased) opinion is that most people who have a NAS at home own a Synology NAS. And I'm one of them! Take a moment to admire my DS716+II ! 🤩 A Synology NAS is the quiet workhorse humming in a corner somewhere, storing backups, media, half-finished side projects... When I realized I could run my own AT Protocol Personal Data Server (PDS), I had to try to put my trusty NAS to another good use. Running a PDS on a Synology NAS is great because:PageATProto

I worked out what I'm going to do with this
So I'm compulsive about signing up for new things and then not using them. Over the more than two decades that blogging has been a thing I've probably made more than twenty and not used them because there's something terrifying about the blank feed that could be anything. I always want it to be Important. And in my brain the barrier between Important and Pretentious is at best semipermeable. I always work better with a structure or a challenge than without one, so I'm going to steal a challenge ...IntroductionThis Year
ブルースカイ麻雀は、インターネット上の楽しい小さな空間で、麻雀について語り合う場所です! | Bluesky Mahjong is a Fun Little Space On The Internet To Talk About Mahjong!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!! It's Christmas Eve here right now. I hope everyone's Christmas is good. It was a miracle that a gift for my wife got here today, and i'm able to fix my van finally. Wooo! This year was basically about survival for me. Lets hope 2026 is a little more festive. But one of the things I am a little festive about is I am just about to upgrade my mahjong feed on bluesky to a new server! (if you read this in 2026, it's already done).
