WordPress, one month later.
It might be too soon, but I wanted to make this post anyway because it's been on the mind lately. Last month or so, I decided after hopping on and wrangling with static site generators to dismiss them as a whole, and I decided to make the jump to WordPress. And frankly, I don't regret...

One Year of Being Diagnosed with ADHD
So, it's been one year since I was diagnosed with ADHD, and I've learned a lot about myself in this past year, and how to deal with some of the issues that stem from the ADHD. While they haven't all been resolved, I'm happy to say I'm in a better frame of mind than I...

Sidra Review
So, Apple Music has two problems: The Windows app kinda sucks. There's no app for Linux. The Linux part, I can understand. The Windows part, however, I don't - right now I've got a problem where it says "An unknown error occurred", and I think it's because I had to briefly use Wi-Fi instead of...

An ideological split in the Linux desktop (LLMs)
So, Linus Torvalds has come out and said that LLMs are just a tool, and that Linux is not considered to be an anti-AI project. This has caused anti-AI people to crash out on social media, down to making very embarrassing conspiracies about Linus Torvalds being "compromised" when really he seems to be a no-bullshit...

Software decision paralysis
I have a major problem with making decisions and sticking to things. ADHD people tend to suffer from decision paralysis, where an overwhelm of information gets you locked up and stressed. I also get a lot of "what if" questions coming in, worrying about the future, over things I simply do not need to worry...

Getting flag emoji on Windows (11)
Due to political reasons, Microsoft has actively refused to add flag emojis on Windows 11. Given how common flag emojis are, it's honestly more annoying than I thought it'd be, especially when discussing international events like Eurovision where these emoji would be useful. People use these flags to denote their nationality, or a country they...

My site’s in the Atmosphere now
So, I hooked up my blog to the Atmosphere. For those who don't know, the Atmosphere is to Bluesky what the Fediverse is to Mastodon - the network that surrounds their respective protocols (AT Protocol and ActivityPub, respectively), and much like the Fediverse has its own platforms (or rather, people hosting platforms), the Atmosphere has...

A eulogy for the most misunderstood Windows version (Ulveon)
https://ulveon.net/p/2026-06-04-a-eulogy-for-the-most-misunderstood-windows-version Windows Vista feels like the runt of Windows' lineage. A troubled and probably even rushed development cycle, combined with complacency on part of the OEMs with XP being very modest on hardware requirements, meant that Windows Vista got a bad rap amongst computer users for being slow and buggy, even nowadays. Its notoriety for...

Canada in Eurovision
Canada announced they'll take part in Eurovision 2027, but things are hairier than you'd think, and you probably know why.
