Gillian Anderson and Sex Education
Earlier this week, NK and I finished watching the 7th season of The X-Files. Even though there are more seasons to go, I think I’m ready to say bye to this show. I was ready since the episode Mulder found out what happened to his sister.
After the show, we watched both David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson clips on YouTube, discussing The X-Files (not together, different clips), and as it turns out, Anderson is pretty f-ing cool. Here, have a listen:
After I found out about her tattoos and the dress with the vaginas, I also learned she’s the sex therapist (Jean Milburn) in Sex Education. I immediately decided I’m going to watch it - and I just finished the first episode 📺.
I’m not sure if it’s my kind of show (I usually don’t connect well with high school shows, it just doesn’t speak to me that well) but it does have a certain charm. I see myself as a sex-positive person, and this show kind of highlights some principles I agree with in a comic way.
Well, I guess we’ll see how it goes.
It doesn’t feel like 2026 to me. Had an intense workday yesterday, will have another tomorrow… same weather outside… I think it can be 2025 a little longer. It’s fine…
Happy new year to all the interweb gremlins 👹
I like the DU command in Dired
Using the du command in Emacs Dired is pretty useful! Easier to target directories and work with the results as text.
Walked in the snow for farmer’s market, amd this nice taco place with spicy veggie tacos and hot chocolate is the reward. 🌮😋📷
Do I need the Zen Browser workflow...?
I’m trying Zen Browser on Mac after a week of using it on Linux. Do I need it…? I’m not so sure. Onward with the experiment.
Krita is an underrated painting/photo/animation/ai-creation tool you should check out
Krita is blowing me away. It has proven to be a powerful and versatile alternative to Photoshop for image editing and generation, especially with its AI integration. If you haven’t, you should check it out. After all, it’s free.
One thing I managed not to compromise on recently is cooking at home and watching my diet a bit more. Maybe it’s easier for me to do because I already enjoy vegetables, but I took it to the next level after I got my Vitemix. Here’s breakfast with some homemade hummus:
So, to fix the KeePassXC issue for Zen Browser, I went the route of installing it from tarball instead of flatpak. This is not a Zen problem - it’s an issue with how KeePassXC works, and the nature of flatpak. Automatic updates work.
Learned a lot of good stuff. Notes will follow.
OK, trying zen browser take two…
The KeePass issue is definitely a Flatpak issue. I Installed Zen from tarball - no problem. Works as expected. What I’m not sure about now is if I need to download the browser each time when there’s an update.
