de: bin soeben ein bissl durch das abendliche Innsbruck spaziert weil ich ein Foto machen wollte. Offensichtlich nehmen die Leute[tm] den ab Montag beginnenden lockdown nicht als “die Lage ist schlimm, wir sollten vorsichtig sein” sondern als “shit, noch schnell Party machen!”

all of a sudden felt the need to listen to the Strange Days soundtrack - and was yet again blown away by the capability of music to teleport your feelings to a specific time and place. A+ would listen again.

sitting on a train, riding through the German countryside, I realize: while wearing a mask is no problem at all for me (I do it every day at work), one aspect makes me really antsy, if that’s the right word: I am so used to eating while on a train, and now I can’t..

looking at the newly announced MacBooks I remain hopeful that by the time I can afford a used one, Linux might run decently on it…

I think I’ve found the culprit ..

“It reads like Snow Crash had a dance-off with #GideonTheNinth, in a world where language isn’t a virus from outer space, it’s a goddamn alien invasion.” - @cstross@twitter.com on @scottomoore@twitter.com ‘s BATTLE OF THE LINGUIST MAGES https://publishing.tor.com/battleofthelinguistmages-scottalanmoore/9781250767721/ - well that’s a definite preorder then!

this is me doing a little happy dance because one of my oldest digital homes, KaraNet BBS has come back online

so, that’s a new power supply in the server because the old one just died (and took a few other servers down with it, sorry ..)

I think my mind wasn’t ready for Feuerschwanz covering Seeed with an appearence by Melissa Bonney (aka the Queen of the Dammed). This track is mental! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmlshlqXD54

extremely awesome new (sortof groovy ambient) track by Ah! Kosmos https://ahkosmos.bandcamp.com/track/yarama-bast-k-a
