I got a new domain after voicing an idea I’ve mulled over for a while: mutualaid.rocks. I still don’t know the exact shape of it, but I think it will start as a collection of resources for groups getting started or experiencing pain points with the tech side of things. Dreaming bigger, perhaps eventually offering some open source software to help with those, avoiding less ethical big tech services.

Archiving my current bio in preparation for the updated one. Also on Internet Archive:

music · faith · computer geekery · friends · liberty

These six words are probably the most succinct bio I could write. Keep reading if you would like more, though!

My name is gRegor Morrill, a.k.a. gRegorLove. Yes, “Gregor is a weird name,” ¹ and I know gRegor is a weird capitalization. You can pronounce it “Greg-or,” “Greg-er,” “Gee-reg-or,” or “Floyd.” I am not too picky about it.

I am 45—yes, really—and one of the most interesting things about me is that I had a pacemaker put in when I was 28. It was a crazy story and I am very grateful to be alive.

Computers have been a big part of my life since childhood. (Now I even have one assisting my heart!) I particularly enjoy making web sites and applications that look great and work well. Most of my work is in programming, but I have quite a love for design and typography. I have been told that I have a good eye for them, which I attribute to my talented friends rubbing off on me.

There are some amazing people in my life. I love spending time with friends, meeting new people, laughing, and making other people laugh. Laughter is one of the best inventions ever.

I love how powerful music can be. A song can fit exactly how I feel, change how I feel, or even transport me to a specific memory. It is a spiritual experience at times. Going to concerts is one of my favorite activities and I enjoy promoting the artists that move me.

While I have quite an interest in politics as a topic, I have grown tired of politics as a process. Liberty is much more interesting to me. I am opposed to initiating force to achieve political or social goals. I think it is wrong and only perpetuates a cycle of people wielding force against each other. We can peacefully mature beyond such systems.

My faith in Jesus as Saviour is central in my life and I strive to follow Christ in all I do. I believe that God is relational and thus we are made to be the same way. Through our relationships we have great power for good, for redemption. “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” (Luke 10:27)

Pronouns: he/him/his

It’s been a minute since I’ve listened to older Viva Voce, but I was reminded how great that first album is. Tracks: “Shining in My Shoes” and appropriately, “June.”

I was following James’ Search engine shortcuts in Firefox which was very helpful, though I was not seeing this part of step 5 in Firefox on Windows:

“Click the icon of the site in the ‘This time, search with:’ bar. If you haven’t already added the site as a search engine, a small green + icon should appear indicating you can add the site as a search engine.”

I knew that indieweb.org advertised OpenSearch, so I thought there should be a way the browser picks up on that. I found that right-clicking in the address bar gave me the option Add “IndieWeb (en)”.

That worked and the search now shows up under Settings > Search Shortcuts. However, it appears that the edit option is disabled, which seems like it might be a bug. That prevents me from adding a search shortcut like @iw unless I manually add the search engine.

Gripe: I'm so tired of badly behaved bots making the web that much shittier these days.

I'm glad Game Changer is back. I laughed so hard at the first two episodes.

Phishing email impersonating Capital One sent from OnlineAlerts--[yourname]@email.cz

Watch out for an email like this about Capital One, or any other financial site. If your account is locked, no reputable company should send you a link to enter your login information.

From my experience, real Capital One messages come from capitalone@notification.capitalone.com

To report suspicious emails to Capital One, visit capitalone.com/help-center/fraud-disputes/report-suspicious-email/. After filling out their form, forward the scam email you received to abuse@capitalone.com.

Your safety and security are important to us. Thank you for choosing Capital One.

This one was sneaky because those numbered lists after the link seem like legitimate steps. I have never used their mobile app, but my suspicion is those steps would sign you out of the app. If you clicked the link and entered your login information, the attacker has it and could change it. Getting you to sign out of the app ensures you don't have any access at that point.

They also did a good job of including Capital One's boilerplate at the bottom of the message, including the legitimate From email and links to their Privacy Policy, Help, and Contact. The links used the click-notification.capitalone.com domain. I confirmed that matches real messages from Capital One.

To ensure delivery, add capitalone@notification.capitalone.com to your address book.

Aside: I actually closed my Capital One account a couple months ago. They warned that eventually my online access might be turned off and they would send tax documents in the mail. At first glance, I thought that's what this message was, but realized my account was under a different email, plus @email.cz is phishy as hell.

I’m working on a new search feature in indiebookclub which uses Open Library and supports cover images. It has me tinkering with the UI of the posting form and I’m interested in feedback about this first pass.

My first thought was to display the selected book information in a more compact, read-only block at the top of the form so you only have to select the status (want to read, currently reading, finished reading), then optionally add tags and other choices if you are using Micropub.

However, I still want to give people the option to update the book information before they post, so I was considering a button that would change the book information into editable fields. I experimented with various options and did not come up with anything I loved. I am now leaning towards always showing the fields with the populated values. Keep it simple.

I did make the form more compact overall: less padding inside the form fields, less vertical space between them, and a horizontal layout on larger screens (using this WCAG technique). I also moved the timezone offset field out of a collapsed details element.

For comparison, below is a screenshot of the form as it exists. There are still a few parts of it that need to be put into my mockups, like choosing ISBN or DOI.

There will still be an option to use this form without searching Open Library, so if you are using a bookmarklet or prefer to type in all the fields, that will continue to work.

I look forward to any feedback or questions!

It’s the end of an hair-a.

I started growing the facial hair in April 2020 because, hey, why not? I had no idea if I would keep it for long, but fast forward six years and I guess I liked it. I still like it today, but I thought it was time for a change, especially with summer coming.
