If you don’t use the Safari built in Reading List, you can move forward, or read it if you want to find a quick way to save web links from every app.

When I’m working at the Mac I always want to listen/whatch something in background, and usually I want to listen news and informations about the world (not music) in order to be always informed, so my favourite TV channels became: Rai New 24, Sky TG24, La…

I don’t know how I found this app but now I have to say that it saved me a lot of time and complications: ServerCat It’s a simply – but powerful – app to monitor the status of your servers and even run commands on them, also the same command to multiple s…

Some days ago I received a cool piece of “contemporary art”: the iPhone 3G frame by Grid, and I want to share my review of it because I think it’s an interesting product for the geek/Apple lovers and it has a correct price tag (in my opinion).

I spent my last two months to build/optimize my home network from scratch and I want to share my setup, info and troubles that I discovered during this work, so you can take some inspirations or ideas here and there.

Browsing the info of my Raspberry PI 4B I found that all the three devices I have, are different.

yubiuser has updated the cool script PADD to v.3.7.0 for monitoring Pi-Hole stats, with some new cool features and optimizations.

Few days ago I bought for 16€ a very nice and useful Raspberry PI 4 fan/hat with a small OLED display, that fits perfectly on the Pimoroni Pibow Coupé 4 and can be turned on only when the CPU reach x ºC (60°C for me).

Few days ago I received (finally) the Apple Studio Display that I have ordered and I found some tips that I’ve rarely found in other reviews.

I recently updated my Raspbian Buster to Bullseye on the RaspberryPI I use as DNS server with Pi-Hole.

Yes, finally I’ve found the time to buy a VPS and host a Jekyll blog with a nice comment system and to move my old blog from Medium.

I had made some workflows that automatically moved my routers backup to a backup folder, but since I’ve switched from DD-WRT to OpenWrt, and I’m not using two routers but only one, I want to delete them.

This post is about how I’m doing the backup of my Mac using (the great) Carbon Copy Cloner software.

Some months ago I bought a new microwave from LG (model MH6535GIB), that is a very nice microwave for the price tag but… by default it had a big, enormous problem: the sounds.

GDPR is a useful law.

Few days ago I received an email from Reddit that was noticing me about the removal of one of my post: The removed post is this: Photographer meticulously light paints 686 photos for stop motion project Nothing to be worried, this can happen, as the messa…

Following the abandon of Google Analytics and the beginning of umami usage (you can read the details in this post) I encountered in a little trouble: how to make a backup of the umami database, without having sFTP access to Heroku VPS, because of the free…

First of all this is not the usual(ess) article that says “use Low Power Mode, disable background refresh, etc…” we already know those stupids tips, I’m assuming that we are a bit above this level.

I started this blog few weeks ago and I installed, despite my will, Google Analytics but, just few days after… G.

My idea is to achieve a technological house but that doesn’t rely only and all on a connection, because it can have failure and is not always more useful, I want instead to have a handy and comfortable setup to enjoy my everyday life with the help of some…

WireGuard is a great network tunnel/VPN, very fast and reliable, but for me it has one downside: I have to update the config file every time I reboot my router or modem, because the IP from my ISP change every time.

…also because until you sell, and you have the money on your bank account, your are not making any profit.

Since I’ve never found a complete and easy tutorial on how to setup an encrypted account using the default macOS/iOS Mail.app, I’ll try to explain my setup and how I made this.
