Meh, I'm not sure I like it very much.

A console RSS reader.

For what it is, I like it. I don't think I'll either rely on RSS, or even the console, enough to use this.

rss2email, and a rant on usability-apathy

Followup YouTube+RSS-related stuff is in Atheist YouTube channels, now gone

Warning: This post contains everyday language. It's one thing to be polite, but I need to stress the importance of the destruction of usability-apathy. There's no room to be nice here.

I was intending to do a decent post every day, but I got really burned out. Why? I've been struggling with several different programs over the last couple of weeks. I've been sick and tired of the clumsiness that my apathy has allowed.

I think everyone has a sort of apathy towards usability issues. We take them as excusable or as some sort of status quo "that's just the way it is". I'm sick and fucking tired of that. Seriously.
