Because it's all about being popular...
Human Emacs
I feel like this project is jumping the gun quite a bit, but I also appreciate that it exists. I did also see someone say the other day that it's worth running with anyway to "get away from RMS". Which is far I guess.
CSS-DOS — A computer made of CSS
An entire PC built in CSS.

I don't care if it's totally made up, it made me chuckle.

GTA2. On the web.

Interesting article about some of the downsides of working with AI to create code. Says a few things I've also been saying about my journey with BlogMore.
Tfeb lisp hax
Lots of really useful Lisp code. Hours of great reading.
GitFut — your GitHub, rated out of 99
Got to love a stupid GitHub-based profile rating tool.
This blog is written in en-GB
Yeah, it's okay to write in your own voice, and for yourself. Weird huh?
The AI Compass
I got "The Skeptic"
Radial
I've long been a fan of pie menus. I wish macOS had adopted and used pie menus. This looks like something I need to try out at some point.
The UnOfficial History of Second Life!
A pretty fun Reddit post that contains a potted history of the evolution of Second Life. I've had an account for a good chunk of that time and it all reads about right to me.
Honesty gets Emacs patch rejected
The FSF, in effect, do what the FSF is there to do: defend the copyright of GNU Emacs. Meanwhile someone attempts to contribute a patch written by a large language model, and seemingly gets offended that it's rejected. I think the worst part about it is they seem to think that being honest about using an LLM should let their contribution in.
Gemtext Is Not Accessible
A good reminder that, as fun and neat as Gemtext is, it's not terribly accessible.
About smolweb
A handy guide to all things relating to the small web, and related concepts.
Rest of World
A good reminder that there's more to tech news than the "western world".
The AI Resist List
Does what it says in the title, pretty much.
TownSquare — a tiny presence layer for websites
On the one hand, this looks like a fun idea: sort of a Second Life for websites. On the other hand it's the worst of the Internet, which is no surprise.
JSON-LD Explained for Personal Websites
Handy guide to how JSON-LD relates to personal websites.

Does what it says on the tin: shows the list of people who were "leaked" on the Dialog website.
The LLMentalist Effect: how chat-based Large Language Models replicate the mechanisms of a psychic's con
An article in which the author talks about the con played by psychics, and how large language models pretty much do exactly the same thing.
inessential: NetNewsWire Status
I was very late coming to NetNewsWire, only discovering it in the last year; it's been one of my goto RSS tools on macOS and iOS ever since. Here the author talks about the progress made in the last year.
humiliating iis servers for fun and jail time
A funny, and kind of informative, post about how you can be mean to IIS servers. Not that I'd ever do that (no, really, I wouldn't, that's not my sort of thing), but it's fun to know that some folk do do that.
Social media to be banned for under-16s in landmark government move to give kids their childhood back
The press release from the UK government, covering the intended ban on social media for under-16s. Even if we were to assume this is a good thing (and I'm far from convinced it is), the proposal as it looks right now is as hilariously bad and appears to be as ill-informed as any attempt to control the Internet.
Gemini hypertext format, aka "gemtext", specification
The specification for the hypertext format used by the Gemini protocol, also know as "gemtext". Currently I'm developing my own terminal-based Gemini client so this comes in very handy.
