Lost weeks of work to ChatGPT hallucinating logs. OpenRouter's great but big models get throttled fast. I switched to a local + cloud hybrid setup. The trade-offs, lessons, and exact stack are in my post:

I received a Bitcoin extortion email and investigated the tactics behind this type of scam.

These attacks often combine fear, leaked passwords from old data breaches, fake claims, and social engineering to manipulate victims into paying. The goal is not technical sophistication — it is psychological pressure.

In this article, I break down:

• How crypto extortion scams work
• Why leaked passwords are used
• The social engineering techniques behind them
• How to identify the warning signs
• Steps to protect your accounts and personal data

Understanding these scams helps us become harder targets.

A new blog post giving my thoughts on PlayStation not making disks anymore, and the arguments around it.

The kubernetes cluster that Keyboard Vagabond runs on had some re-occurring issues that bugged me for a while and I think that I've final...

I'm currently building a small website as my online portfolio and blog, with some fun stuff like making it explorable as a side-scroller "game" (I gaven't enabled that functionality yet), and as part of documenting the process, I'm trying to write short blog posts that cover some of the tools and decisions I'm making along the way.

This post is about how I decided to write the site's content using Markdown in order to write using Obsidian, and how I then turn that Markdown code into clean, modern HTML "on the fly".

Please note that the site itself is still very much a work in progress.

Hi people.

I have a blog with zola ssg, so its using markdown, tracked by git.

I always write from my laptop but I thought writing from my android phone can be great too for quick notes and when Im traveling, away, etc.

I have termux+neovim setup on my phone but I though maybe theres something simpler for a phone. you guys have any suggestions?

Cerco uno spazio di confronto, aiuto reciproco e condivisione di noi stessi su chi siamo, cosa vogliamo, cosa stiamo cercando.

I recently decided to ditch my ancient WordPress portfolio and build a new site from scratch.

Because I wanted to show off a little bit, I decided I wanted to make it into a 2D side-scroller using Little.js. The issue was figuring out how I could keep the site accessible.

I just wrote the first blog post in a series on how I am making that very site.
The site is still a work in progress; but I felt this could interest people here. And it gives me a chance to test out the blog feature I just coded in.

I wrote a blog post about me getting in to FSharp web application development, but am having issues deciding how I want the data access to look. I'm very much open to feedback!

I've been blogging over 4 years and the reach has Plateaued.

I'm wondering if there is any service that helps reach/discoverability (like medium platform) while I stick to my own hosting?

Thanks!

Just curious if any people make steady income from a side devblog? I know there are dedicated youtubers, but I'm not into that..

I've been blogging over 4 years but the reach is still poor, just wanna rethink my strategy..

Thanks!

I compared two lemmatisation packages on Python as a part of my research project. I couldn't find many sources for how to compare the performance and accuracy of lemmatisation tools so I wanted to share my own approach. I keep notes and a diary on my research project and decided to share some of them in a blog.

The snow fell down upon the quiet roads. Santa Flew through the sky, dropping gifts through the land.

All of a sudden, the SAM site was enacted. Santa had to coordinate with ATC! 😮

Santa installed the ADS-B transponder. His code was granted, SANTA was set and the plan flies by.

PTZ Cameras got planted all through the land. Santa flew by, knowing the sky was watched as tightly as that fox at Fort Nox.

Santa then knew, by the tip of his tongue, that now was the time for the stealth menu. The active cloaking was now installed, just in time for Christmas of this year.

The gifts got sent and the sled remained sleek, while being harder to see than bobs pet named sneak.

Disclosures: My writing is meh. I wrote what I could. Refine it with KimiK2 a few times and maybe you have a story to tell?

Hey folks, I just finished writing a guide for setting up NTFS drives for Linux gaming. There's been some misinformation and questions on whether it's feasible, but if you set it up right you should be fine.

Hopefully this can help others avoid the pain I've gone through to make it work without issues!
