But that's just the main site / long-form writing. My most active site is https://books.rixx.de (all my book reviews, static site built off Markdown + frontmatter), and then there's https://ramble.rixx.de for experimental writing, https://dev.rixx.de as CV and customer pitch, https://fernweh.rixx.de to plan upcoming trips … making small subdomain-scoped projects is a lot of fun.


Wow your books section is really awesome. I had the same idea of a virtual shelf like that! Do you happen to have any code to share?

Unrelated, how do you read so much! I'm impressed by the quantity.


Prices won't go down, probably, but bus lines will diversify. They work really well and many people use them.

Random comparison: Stuttgart–Berlin is 6 hours, 140€ by train and 8 hours, 25€ by bus, going two or three times a day.


At the moment most people are wondering how these IP addresses were found. This[0] article indicates that they were using redtube.net to gather the IP addresses and then forwarded to redtube.com. (This might be illegal since it would be them distributing pornographic content.)

Also, the way they were charging their fines is probably illegal and they might lose their license over it. Yes, they charged fines directly, those were not just cease-and-desist letters.

(They might also be using CC-licensed templates on their own website without giving due credit. [1])

I can't confirm that. I grew up learning blackletter first (since my mother didn't want me to get bored in school too quickly) and after a few minutes of getting used to it again, it's not at all harder to read to me than modern writing.

Some letters, like the ſ, aren't that easy to get used to, but when you do get used to them they actually help you (or, well, help me) read faster. That is, I think, because letters with an ascender are easily identified, and ſ (a different form for s) is actually very common in those texts.
