“That you feel something to be right may have its cause in your never having thought much about yourself and having blindly accepted what has been labeled right since your childhood.” ~Friedrich Nietzsche

Finished reading: Everything Is Tuberculosis by John Green 📚
Excelllent book. A book that should be read by everyone.
1.25 Million people die every year from TB. Experts say that no one should die, every case is curable.
Koofr and pCloud
Well, I’m uploading 2TB of photos to Koofr, so far, so good.
I’m new to them, and setting everything up has been straightforward so far.
I also signed up with pCloud and set it up, but I haven’t used it much yet. I can say I prefer pCloud’s interface, which looks and feels better to me.
After using both, I’ll let you know the pros and cons.

Custom CSS for your Markdown in DEVONthink - Who Knew!
This link comes from MacStories, but it’s too good to not share.
If you are a DEVONthink user, this is a really nice touch. I’ve downloaded and used jsloop’s custom CSS, and it’s terrific.
I had no idea you could do this in DT, and it makes all the difference in the world.
There are directions for both DEVONthink 3 and DEVONthink To Go 3, and you are free to use jsloops CSS to get you started. Then it’s easy to make tweaks after that.
The two links:

Through a newspaper article, I learned about Hiroshi Yoshimura and his Ambient (Sound Design) music. It’s really nice background music to have playing. I’ve listened to three albums now, and “Surround” is my favorite.

This always brings back so many memories of sitting by a fire in the dark drinking beer, and someone would recite The Cremation of Sam McGee from memory.
You can listen to a pretty good audio version here:
‘The Cremation of Sam McGee’ 🔗 / alaska.org
“There are strange things done in the midnight sun By the men who moil for gold; The Arctic trails have their secret tales That would make your blood run cold; The Northern Lights have seen queer sights, But the queerest they ever did see Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge ? I cremated Sam McGee.“

I have Tailscale up and running on the Synology NAS. There is very good step-by-step instruction here. It’s pretty cool to be able to use the Sharesheet and send whatever you need to it from any device.
PSA: Tomorrow is the cutoff to download your Amazon books. How To Do Stuff walks you through step by step how to do it with automation. Easy Peazy.
Consider adding this What is a feed page to your blog to help people who may not know what a RSS feed is or how to use it. Compliments of Matt Webb.
Just added it to mine.

When Inspiration Turns Dark
I love photography—everything about it: carrying a camera around, freezing moments of time, downloading the photos to my computer to see what I’ve got, processing them, tweaking them, and making them just right. I share them because I’m happy with the picture, and maybe it inspires someone else. Pictures start conversations. Pictures can make you cry, think, or even change your mind.
I want to say a few words about the inspiration part.
At first, looking at other people’s photography was inspiring. But over time, it started to have the opposite effect. I wasn’t learning–I was comparing. And comparison is a trap.
Bringing a Little Joy Into My Day and Weekly Planning
There are endless blog posts about the latest to-do apps and systems. My goal is not to proclaim from the rooftops that I’ve found the secret to daily planning success but to share some thoughts on a few options that I have found very rewarding.
I have a constant struggle with Analog vs Digital; it perturbs me how much I think about this. I’ve given up worrying about which type of system it is, and I do what feels right and what keeps me on track. And, if that system brings a little joy to the process, even better.
Spent some time “Chatting with my highlights” in Readwise. I really like this feature. I have highlights from over 1000 books now so it’s really interesting to have a more focused knowledge base to ask questions from. This feature may alter which things I highlight in the future. 🧐
