Scraps from 2025-06-27 to 2025-07-04

Posted on

The third scrap! Whoda ever thunk it'd reach the lofty heights of three editions? Not me, that's for sure.

This week, I'm happy to tell you that Scraps is fully sponsored by absolutely nobody and contains no product placement or adverts! Ain't that great?!

Once is once, twice is a coincidence, but thrice? Well now, that's a pattern. I guess I'm going to have to carve some time out this week to sort out a dedicated Scraps RSS feed, as well as /scraps slashpage. I mean, the header already links there and it 404's so I guess it needs to happen? I'll add it to my todo list!

As for your own todo list, perhaps peruse the presently provided posts post-haste? I don't know, you do you. BUT we do have some cool stuff to read this week!

Spotlight

Indieweb, Fediverse & Social Media - people stuff

Because people are people too, y'know!?

Infosec, sysadmin & code - tech stuff

By welcoming our robot overlords, you're actually just welcoming the billionaire who owns them. And that, to me, seems like a pretty shitty deal! Tech is still cool though - like all tools, they can be used or abused.

Bonus

It's a good idea to bring ourselves out of technology and websites occasionally.

That hasn't happened this week, as I've been busy reading about game development! For no reason I tell you, no reason at all.
