2023s

Have you ever wondered how to run websites as standalone apps in Linux? I recently discovered a fantastic application for this purpose: Webapp Manager.

This app is a game-changer. It’s incredibly user-friendly and everything works seamlessly right from the start.

Here’s how you can get started:

Download the .deb file.
Run the command sudo dpkg -i webapp_manager*.deb in your terminal.
Open “Web apps” and create your new app.

And voilà! It’s that simple. Webapp Manager makes the process effortless and everything just works perfectly out of the box.

Recently, I purchased a pair of barefoot shoes, the Bär Jason. These shoes are definitely among the top purchases I’ve made in 2023. They’re warm, comfortable, and embody everything I expect from a barefoot shoe.

How Old-School IRC connections bring unexpected delights

This is really cool. An acquaintance. Well, acquaintance might be stretching it – we’ve been chatting on IRC for many, many years. You know IRC? Yes, that’s how old-school I am, but this connection goes far beyond that.

Today, a package arrived from an IRC buddy. I tore it open as soon as I got home. And luckily for me, there was some authentic Swedish tacos ready to be heated up. Raspberry and lingonberry sauce were generously poured over the tacos.

Yeah, it was delicious, but that’s beside the point. I’m still teary-eyed over these little thoughtful gestures that people around me do. I appreciate it immensely. Everyone should have a genuine IRC friend.

And if you’re reading this, you know who you are ;) I’ll be visiting Gothenburg this summer!

Resetting my email game

s part of my ongoing quest to find the best email service, I recently encountered a significant milestone. Just yesterday, I reached the “soft limit” on my Migadu email account. This event prompted me to reevaluate my options and explore new alternatives.

After some research, I decided to take the plunge with MXroute’s enticing lifetime promo offer. I must say, the transition has been impressively smooth. The onboarding process was straightforward, and so far, the service has been operating flawlessly. It’s a refreshing change and I’m looking forward to use this service.

Why? Because this app is by far the best. Its simplicity just wins overall. No more jumping from one app to another – Fitnotes has everything I need.
