  • Using Bitwarden as an SSH agent

    Besides being the coolest password manager out there, the desktop Bitwarden app also now includes an SSH agent. This is super useful to me as I switch between multiple devices all the time over the day, and need to keep everything in sync. Personally, I installed the desktop app through the Flatpak, but a native…

  • Great WordPress plug-ins

    I switched to WordPress around a year ago because managing my posts and such is way easier on it. Sadly, the WordPress ecosystem kinda sucks; just like some aspects of .NET, you have a ton of stuff that’s just paid, or with free version that nags you at every corner to purchase them. However, there…

  • Thrift stores are awesome

    Something I’ve never mentioned since moving to Finland is the abundance of thrift stores. When I say abundance, I’m not joking, a query to Overpass Turbo querying second_hand stores, I could find more than 65 in the Helsinki region! In the past few days, I’ve been visiting a few with a friend, to see if…

  • The first 100

    On 2026-02-12, I finally managed to reach 100 contacts over the radio. Considering 2026-02-17 will mark the first year of being licensed, I find it pretty good. Before November 2025, my transmissions were sparse, but DMR revived the whole thing for me and I”ve been making most of my contacts via this mode. For the…

  • Setting up LoTW

    Logbook Of The World (or LoTW) for short, is a website providing logging for amateur radio contacts; maintained by the American Radio Relay League (ARRL). Until now, I was solely using the QRZ logbook to log my contacts, but seeing how many people also request confirmations using LoTW, I decided to go ahead and create…

  • No more Discord for the Purple Hour

    Discord has been a lot in the news lately, and I won’t lie, this post is written as a direct result. However, this is not a “you should switch to this” post, more of an announcement. I’ve been holding my Resonite Team office hours (called “The Purple Hour”) since July 2025, and the editions were…

  • Bonus: Setting up a WPSD hotspot for DMR

    I”ve mentioned DMR hotspots before, but only with the software Pi-Star, which is the current standard in that matter. Today, I”m having a look at the WPSD project, which has a much more modern take on hotspot software. Just like Pi-Star, it can be used as a gateway to a bunch of protocols, including DMR…

  • GitHub and IPv6 in 2026

    Time for the status again. It’s now been four years since IPv6 support was requested from GitHub. I’m afraid the situation hasn’t evolved much since last year. As usual, the domain avatars.githubusercontent.com does resolve to an array of IPv6 addresses announced by Fastly. Unsurprisingly, the rest remains sad. You still cannot load the homepage, clone…

  • Small blog update

    Quick post to give a small update on some things around this blog. I sadly can”t find time to update my theme, so instead, I decided to start using one of the defaults: Twenty Twenty-Five. Turns out customizing it through the block editor is quite fun. There are still some things to tweak, for instance,…

  • Taking a step back

    I have decided to take a small step back from public-facing Resonite online spaces. This decision was taken as nowadays, while there are some wonderful things and (lots of) constructive feedback, the load of bad-faith remarks about the Resonite Team being “lazy” or “not transparent”, or whatever ill you may think of is honestly wearing…
