Migrated my laptop running Debian from btrfs to ext4. What I did wrong: (0) continuing to run btrfs after it got uncorrectable errors and remount read-only several times (it might work better in some more usual use cases than mine); (1) not rebuilding initramfs after the change, making mount fail; (2) passing a different label to cryptsetup luksOpen than in /etc/crypttab, causing an infinite loop in initramfs.

I dislike exactly two things about the #Firefox reader mode: (1) it replaces the URL with an about:reader one, but keeps displaying the original one in the address bar (so I don't see why bookmarks are separate with and without it) (2) it's too common in Web design to make pages unreadable when it's disabled.

https://xkcd.com/1205/ might be a good rule when working, but not when using a computer at home: automating the task might be more fun, I might learn more, while spending much more time than just doing the task. (I'm not sure this would convince me to learn the Emacs style of regular expressions; I always have to guess how many backslashes to add to turn a trivial POSIX ERE into an Emacs regexp.)

Received the #fsfbulletin. I was surprised seeing the envelope with proper diacritics in my name and address when Polish companies still use replacement character boxes in invoices.

Seen a "disable adblock or register" banner (disabling adblock doesn't hide it); it should have been "practice #adblock element hiding or disable #PrivacyBadger and get tracked more".

Set up a Mastodon instance; finally had an opportunity to use Docker with a real-world application.
