🆕 on my blog: I wrote about my project to convert the Vaio lamp I found on Craigslist into a nice colourful little RGB feature for my desk 💻 https://drac.at/posts/2026-07-04-retrofitting-a-vaio-lamp/
found this hidden gem on the garden. it's a japanese hypercard game called Summer Vacation - Search for the Golden Beetle (夏休み・黄金のかぶと虫を探して, Natsuyasumi - kogane no kabutomushi o sagashite)
the pixel art is just insane - such a careful balance of positive and negative space in each rendering.
it plays very much like early Cyan games like The Manhole - pure exploration. thank you macgarden archivist baku for finding, buying, and preserving this incredible gem.

What a sad try of #Mullvad to get out of the situation. Of course it was the private man Daniel Berntsson who made a donation to the far right Party „Örebro party“. Not a Mullvad thing. But where is Daniel getting the money from. From every single user of Mullvad who’s paying for their service.
By this statement from Mullvad I have to assume that they think we are daft.
The only way to take away the money from David is to take it away from Mullvad.
I don’t think there’s a single bit of the modern macOS experience adding more to the feeling that it’s crumbling than lookup bloopers like using the tiny coffee scale touchpad to “deep click” the name of a vaguely well-known company and “Siri Knowledge” pulling up the “macOS” Wikipedia Article
[been playing a bit too much new vegas lately voice] you see, my canvas overalls have Repair +5 and Science +5, but INT -1 and DR/DT 0 which is why I pricked my finger slightly on the wiring
your lesbian uncle update: swapped out the switch on the front porch light for a smart one so now it turns on in the dark if you open the front door, and turns off 5 minutes after you close it 🫨
ACTUAL future goal: use the (existing) security cameras to detect when someone approaches the steps, and turn the light on for them
