  • Flight Facilities Decades Mixes

    Flight Facilities, a DJ/production duo from Australia, released four mixes back in 2013. Each one spanning a decade, starting with 1972, and ending at 2012. The mixes take you on a little music journey through each decade, incorporating pop music and major news headlines on a timeline.

    I used to jog around our old neighborhood listening to the 1982-1992 mix all the time.

    I’m not sure what prompted me to look these up again, as I’ve had them saved for a while, but I was very excited to see that they’ve added two more decades! 1962-1972 and 2012-2022. They fit in perfectly with the original four. Still super fun and really well done.

    Related: another amazing era mix is DJ Spinbad's 90's Megamix. Quite possibly one of the best, and most fun mixes I’ve ever heard.

  • Draplin's Junkin' Page

    Aaron Draplin updated his site design, and he uploaded a bunch of images from his junkin’ trips. I’ve always loved it when he posts these on social media. Kind of want to start one of these myself. Should “junkin’” be a new slash page ?

  • Stripe.dev

    This might be the most beautiful site I’ve ever seen. Some of the color variables are constantly changing, the console does neat things like theming the site (crt-green looks so freakin’ cool), and the endless footer-scroll-thing is really neat! via Chris Glass

    I shared the Linamp link earlier with some old coworkers, and Drew linked this. Amazing! I specifically remember one in particular because I made a LiteStep theme to match.

    I’ve been meaning to dive back into YNAB for a while now, but the cost seems quite high these days. There’s never been a good alternative until now: Actual Budget. Which is open source, can be self-hosted, or hosted on PikaPods for dirt cheap.
