One day.... one day.
YAMLScript.org
The programming language nobody ever asked for, not even the author, probably.
Wisdom of Peterson
Kinda silly but then so is the person this is taking the piss out of.
As an aside though: annoyingly this site seems to be one that disables right click, for no good reason whatsoever. Please don't do that people; there's no good reason; ever.
Nazi Zombies: Portable
Zombie shooter in the browser. A fun way to kill half an hour when all you have is a browser.

A lisp implementation - Summary [Savannah]
Yet another implementation of Common Lisp.
Visual Voicemail | Vodafone
For some reason it's taken me until my third iPhone, and almost 5 years, to realise that you can turn up the on-phone voicemail facility when using Vodafone.
Amazing what you can find when you RTFM.
VR ProOptics | Prescription VR lenses for PlayStation VR2
Reasonable-looking prescription inserts for the PSVR2. While I have inserts for my Quest 2 (and they're amazing), I've not used this company before. The plus side is they're based in the UK.
Going to give them a try and see what they're like.
Collections Database
Interesting and useful-looking personal database app for iOS and macOS. I haven't really needed a database app like this for a long time, but it's worth keeping a note of this should it became a requirement.
It looks good enough that I almost want to try and find a reason to use it.

Leak: Valve is making a Steam Controller 2 and a ‘Roy’ for its Deckard
I regret never having bought one back in the day. I’ll absolutely have to get the new one. I did buy and still own a SteamLink, although haven’t used it in years. Just used an Xbox controller with it back then.
Absolutely love my SteamDeck so if the new controller builds on that I’m all in!

A Definitive Guide to External Displays on macOS
Everything you ever wanted to know about external displays and macOS; and probably a ton more besides.
MacsyZones, FancyZones for macOS
Very interesting-looking app aimed at window layout on macOS. While macOS has that sort of stuff built in now, this seems to go way beyond that.
Space Weather by SolarHam
Space weather portal. Looks like a pretty dense but also really handy view of what the Sun's up to at the moment.
Mushroom Index: Mushroom Color Atlas
An atlas of mushrooms based around their colour.
I don't know that I'll ever have a use for this, but the fact that it exists makes me happy.
TypeStrong/ts-node: TypeScript execution and REPL for node.js
Useful-looking tool that makes TypeScript usable on the command line, amongst other things.

A project to create a native code compiler for Clojure.
Perlisisms - "Epigrams in Programming" by Alan J. Perlis
It’s fascinating to see how many of these have no connection to programming today, but also how many do.

Useful site that contains details of standing stones in and around the Lothians.

The Stallman report
Another document that collects together various reports about problematic behaviour by RMS.
Code review antipatterns
While most of the article is written as a joke, I've seen some of these "dark side" approaches for code reviews done by actual people who don't seem to want to use code review to lift everyone.
Saving this so I can relive the trauma.

Simple instructions on how to set up the Streamdeck with a DND focus mode toggle button.

Tim Peters' take on his suspension from CPython development.
RemovePaywall | Free online paywall remover
Paywall removal tool. These seem to be a bit of a moving target (or rather the success with which they work is), so it's good to have a collection of them.
NMS Ceefax
Ceefax, on the web. What's not to like?
🚨🚨 That's a lot of YAML 🚨🚨
YAML is bad m'kay?
(like, really, it is actually bad).
Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction Setlist at Riverside, Newcastle upon Tyne
Back in the 80s I went to a ZMatLR gig and I was sure that Fields of the Nephilim were the support act; or at least were supposed to be the support act.
This page would seem to pin down the date and the venue (the venue sounds about right anyway) and at least confirm that FotN were supposed to be the support.
