I used to use rsync.net for backing up data ages ago. I'm thinking about going back to it especially since it means I can use the excellent FTP Files app from Anders Borum for iOS.

Is anyone using rsync.net these days and have any feedback on how it may have improved, degraded, etc?

The Boring Internet

The internet you grew up on isn't dying. A commercial veneer glued on top of it is. A visual essay about what actually persists.

I just finished up Renfield. Imo, it knows what film it wants to be and it does it well. Nicholas Cage is a great Dracula.

Even YouTube has created higher expectations. They translate the title and, I'm guessing from the video I was provided, translate the audio.

People quite rightly want the title in their language. You only that on Youtube. Not even the share sheet gets the translated title.

It kinda makes sense, the title is what the poster picked but did they choose the translations? If so, should there not be a way to at least try to align the oEmbed preview with the language of the site / user sharing?

It still kind of bugs me something as simple as getting a title is a pain. I've opted for using the new WebPage. It's slower because you need to load the whole page, including assets and execute the JS.

But this solves the issue other than with instagram which randomly doesn't work.

Thing is the IG titles even in the web browser are crap. What people want would be the og:title so, I grab that too.

I can either just go with this or create a set of rules which will likely be fragile.

I haven't been keeping up cleaning under the rubber seal of my AeroPress for awhile.

I've done it today and the look of it makes me question how I've not gotten ill from using my AeroPress.

Out like a light which is fair enough. #Caturday is the busy day of the week for her.

Finally got around to watching Dogtooth. I enjoyed for its take on that sort of family.

I think the problem with the ending is it’s a product of the budget imo and you can kind of see if coming from a mile away.

It doesn’t ruin the film by any means but did it even need an ending as in it could have just been an fully open ended week in the life of the family

Post gardening chilling.
