  • Hate is a strong word, but I really really really don’t like Windows 11

    I regretted installing Win11 from the very start. It seemed slow, buggy, and lacked some Win10 features I liked and used. What, I can’t put a taskbar where I like it (on the left side of the screen)? Why is File Explorer so slow? What is this annoying clicking while I resume the audio, and…

  • I spoke too soon… Travelling with a broken wrist

  • I got sick of Social Media, so I made a website

    I miss the “Old Internet”. What a Boomer thing to say, huh? And I’m not even 30. But that’s the truth. Honestly, I don’t think I use wrong platforms. All the things I dislike are more a mark of the times – fast, loud, capitalistic – something that spreads to every site because it became…
