OK, so #Pocket is shutting down. A bit late into moving my stuff over, just created an export and looking at installing something in the next few days. What are people looking at moving to, or have moved to?
I think I'll go for self-hosting, so I'm looking to test the following three (which all have a Pocket import 👍):
- Karakeep (karakeep.app/). Lots of hype around this, though the demo UI feels somewhat less compared to the hype. Maybe the hype is mainly due to the AI labeling stuff I would never enable?
- Wallabag (wallabag.it/en/). An old friend I tried for a while years ago. It felt a bit clunky then, so I stayed with Pocket, but the video on the site looks pretty good at least.
- Readeck (readeck.org/en/). Something that didn't immediately come up as an alternative, but something that looks quite good. Lack of mobile app to save stuff from seems a bit of a bummer though, but at least a Firefox extension exists.

The image depicts a mechanical setup with a focus on a metal component being held by a clamp. The background is a solid light green color, providing a neutral backdrop for the machinery. On the left side, there is a cylindrical metal part, possibly a shaft or a spindle, attached to a larger circular metal piece, which could be part of a machine or a tool. The central part of the image shows a rectangular metal block with a bolt on top, secured by a nut. A clamp, with a metallic appearance, is gripping the block, applying pressure to it. The clamp has a hinge mechanism, allowing it to open and close. A piece of beige-colored tape is visible, partially wrapped around the block, suggesting it might be used for securing or marking purposes. The overall image is a technical illustration, likely used for instructional or explanatory purposes.

Richmond, BC, Canada is so Asian that one block from my house there’s a bilingual English and Mandarin school.
Most people assume it’s only for Chinese expats. This is not the case.
I see a few white and Indian kids attend Chaoyin Bilingual Academy. Thing is, Mandarin is a super useful language. It’s actually the most spoken language in the world.
But my town is a great place for this school because you can speak Mandarin everywhere.

What word do you use for a carbonated soft drink? @TheConversationUS takes a look at the origin of some of the most common terms in the U.S. — soda, which likely comes from "sodium," pop, an onomatopoeia, and coke — as a generic term for all drinks, not just cola. We want to know, what do you say?

Challengers filed the document, from a U.N. investigation, in court on Monday. An update on the rule of law: Alien Enemies Act, birthright citizenship, and law firm litigation.Chris Geidner (Law Dork)
The image is a scanned document from a legal case, specifically Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB, Document 160, filed on 07/07/25, and is page 2 of 4. The document discusses the Government of El Salvador's response to a UN inquiry regarding the disappearance of four family members. The text states that the Salvadoran authorities have not arrested, detained, or transferred the persons referred to in the communications of the Working Group. The Salvadoran State's actions have been limited to the implementation of a bilateral cooperation mechanism with another State, facilitating the use of Salvadoran prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained within the scope of the justice system and law enforcement of that other State. The jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, in accordance with international agreements and principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters. The document mentions that the actions attributable to the Salvadoran State are limited to its sovereignty and territorial jurisdiction, and therefore it cannot be held responsible for the failure to observe the principle of non-refoulement with respect to the persons mentioned. The exhibit has redacted personal identifying information for the four men discussed in the WGEID report, with the exception of one case for particular privacy reasons. Petitioners can file an unredacted version of the exhibit under seal at the Court's request.

A number of years ago, I had the privilege of visiting the Great Mosque of Córdoba. There was something about the hypostyle forest of marble columns and the endless repetition of double-tiered, red and white arches, that I found simply stunning. A millennium-old architectural masterpiece, which is as imposing, peaceful, and humbling today as the day it was built.

Smart Illusions (9 Photos)
From a tunnel turned into a pair of binoculars to entire buildings camouflaged as architecture, these nine clever illusions show how artists are transforming urban surfaces into tricks for the eye. This collection features murals, 3D chalk art, and sculptural illusions from France to the United States—all blending art with environment in surprising ways.

1. “Le Mur des Canuts” — Lyon, France
A formerly blank façade becomes a hyperrealistic scene of staircases, buildings, greenery, and pedestrians in the massive trompe-l’œil mural Le Mur des Canuts. It transforms a plain wall into a realistic multi-level street. More photos and about the mural here!
2. “Trombone Player” by Tom Bob — New York, USA
Using yellow pipes as part of the design, the artist painted a large trombone on the wall and a cartoon character blowing into it. The real metal pipes serve as the instrument’s tubing. More photos here!

3. 3D Street Art by Joe & Max — Gloucester, UK
A man appears to stand on the edge of a pit revealing ancient Roman columns and a mosaic pool. This chalk illusion creates the sense of a collapsed street opening into hidden ruins.

4. Tunnel Mural
A painted face with hands holding binoculars transforms two pedestrian tunnel openings into the lenses. People walking through the tunnel complete the illusion from a distance.

5. Natural Frame – Mural by Collettivo FX at the Pizzo Sella Art Village in Palermo
A black-and-white mural of two hands holding a camera turns a balcony doorway into a living photo. The window becomes the lens, perfectly framing a mountain view beyond.
🔗 Follow Collettivo FX on Instagram
6. “CANNOT” Camera Sculpture by Biancoshock — Lodi, Italy
Discarded construction pipes and concrete blocks are painted to look like a broken DSLR camera labeled “CANNOT,” in a parody of Canon. The illusion works from a specific angle where the lens and viewfinder align. More photos here!
7. “Dream of Freedom” by Juandres Vera — Boulogne-sur-Mer, France
A girl sits in a surreal architectural cube, reading a book beside a puffin. The mural’s 3D design uses the building’s shape to create the illusion of depth. More photos and about the mural here!
8. Rooster Illusion by Odeith
A large anamorphic rooster appears to stand in the corner of an abandoned structure. The painting wraps around two walls and the floor, visible correctly only from one angle.

9. “Space and Time” by Eduardo Relero — Bochum, Germany
A chalk drawing of two old men sleeping on a giant bed includes a real person lying on top, blending reality and art. The illusion only works from a bird’s-eye perspective.
