New #blog post: How I Watch YouTube

https://rldane.space/how-i-watch-youtube.html

I was going to work on a Part II to my last post ("You Really Can't Go Home"), but I couldn't find quite the angle I was looking for, so I'm shelving it for now.

This is just a fun and technical / tips & tricks kinda post (with a nice dash of opining and ranting for variety 😆) for watching YouTube without ads that was prompted by an episode of @tuxjam where @kevie complained that he didn't have a solid way to watch YouTube on Linux like he did with #NewPipe on #Android.

New #blog post: Why would you use Perl in 2024?

https://rldane.space/why-would-you-use-perl-in-2024.html

This was unexpectedly hard to write, because I discovered once I got started that I really haven't hardly touched Perl in over a decade. But I still think it's a groovy language, so I just rolled with it. ;)

And many thanks to @hyde for the prompt!! :D
