This week was hectic. I mainly worked from home, going to the office only on Friday. My Feedbin was overflowing with unread articles, but an unexpected visit to the hospital on Saturday — almost eight hours in the waiting room — took care of that. The same for most of the article … | Continue reading
I found a great printer on Saturday and bought. It’s an Epson EcoTank, which operates using ink tanks instead of traditional ink cartridges. Although the printer is pricier than standard inkjet printers, it is completely worth the investment. Ah, and it has fax… There’s a new TV … | Continue reading
I’m choosing not to jump on the Blogroll bandwagon because it resurrects certain internet-related anxieties for me. I follow a number of blogs and websites through RSS, making it impractical to highlight only a select few. | Continue reading
Apple released its Journal app just a couple of weeks before my subscription to Day One was set to expire. Opting not to renew it, I decided to give Apple’s Journal a try, thinking it might meet my needs. And perhaps it does, but its limitation to being only an iPhone app makes i … | Continue reading
Matt Birchler recently shared an insightful article titled “The Browser Company Feels Gross To Me Right Now”, in which he mentions MacStories Weekly 408 — which I can’t read because I’m not a subscriber. In his blog post, Matt describes exactly how I currently feel about Arc. I u … | Continue reading
My printer died a few weeks ago, but I needed to double-check to be certain. Now it’s confirmed: it has become a useless piece of hardware. Although the printer itself is actually fully functional, it requires both color and black ink cartridges to operate, which Canon has discon … | Continue reading

My printer sort of died recently. For it to work, it needs both the color and black ink cartridges. Unfortunately, Canon has discontinued selling these. Some stores still stock black ink cartridges, but the printer refuses to work without both present. All I want is to print a Ch … | Continue reading

However, users have the option to subscribe to the RSS feed if they wish to stay informed about future changes. The blog suits the domain name well: micropublish.blog — Micro.publish … | Continue reading
I’ve heard there’s a concept known as Week, which spans seven days. Somehow, mine seemed to disappear before I even realized it. By the time I paused to reflect, it felt as though the week had already slipped away. However, I did manage to finish watching See. People have mixed f … | Continue reading
I just got this message on Matter while requesting the transcript of a YouTube video: You’ve reached your limit. You can request 3 transcripts per day. Considering it’s a paid service, this limitation seems excessively restrictive. It’s challenging to justify its use as a learnin … | Continue reading
Image Upload is likely the feature I am asked about most frequently. Although there are no API limitations on the part of Micro.blog or Obsidian, implementing this feature requires design decisions that may not make everyone happy. By “design” here I refer not to the user interfa … | Continue reading

Personal I hadn’t planned to start watching another TV show, but on Saturday night, while organizing my desk, I decided to find something to watch. I ended up watching the first episode of See.

David Johnson I have been playing around with the Feedbin iOS app and found out completely by accident that it is possible to save searches.

I’m using it to automatically mark articles as read if they … | Continue reading
On Sunday, I dedicated some time to creating a website for Micro.publish using Micro.blog’s new feature, the Single-Site Web Site. I opted for a variation of the Bear theme for the site. However, later in the week, Matt released the Tiny Theme 2.0, introducing a feature that sign … | Continue reading
The new Tiny Theme feature, implemented by Matt, is quite impressive. Essentially, it allows users to create hooks that the theme uses in specific situations. This feature enables the customization of the blog’s appearance and functionality without the need to edit the theme dire … | Continue reading
Otávio C. I lost my Leica soft release button (in red) yesterday. I found it today, nearly three months later. It turned out to be in the pocket of a jacket – not the one I was wearing on the day I thought I had lost it. | Continue reading
