A customary welcome

You've stumbled upon the Thranpages; home of idiosyncratic variety and curiosity.

The personal website may be dead to most, but I'm on a singular mission to bring it back.

A customary caution

ACTIVE: Writ. Thransoft. WMW.
FORTHCOMING: RSRU, QOTD, STILLS.

All that is new:

The Road by Bilbo Baggins >> Sun 05 September 2021

It is too tempting to rush through the lines of verse in these books. Yet I find even this one provoking.
Facial Phrases >> Sat 04 September 2021

Through my literary (and televised) travels, I've found a few facial related phrases.
WMW Lives! >> Sat 28 August 2021

I've launched a new section of the site: WMW, or Well Made Web. See it at wmw.thran.uk!
Belfast Transport Snub >> Thu 26 August 2021

Railway buildings have been a steady decline since the end of World War II. This has culminated with Belfast's Weaver's Cross (or as I call it, Weaver's Loss). I give an impassioned plea for a remedy.
Remote work isn't remotely working for me >> Mon 09 August 2021

I had this vision that working from home would be bliss. Just me sitting in the room with nothing but the code. No distractions, no worries. Nothing would sidetrack the engineer from his proud handiwork. This wasn't to be so.
xdg-mime, a short guide >> Fri 06 August 2021

On Linux, xdg-open and xdg-mime configure the default applications for opening file types. A situation has forced me to learn their use.
Slaying Rainbows >> Thu 05 August 2021

While on a walk, I looked inside an abandoned building. There I sighted a reminder of my past musical taste.
Screenshot Showcase for August 2021 >> Wed 04 August 2021

How are my desktops? August 2021.
Announcing RSRU R1.0 >> Tue 03 August 2021

The RSRU.pl software catalogue generator is complete enough for a release.
Wading over the waves >> Tue 27 July 2021

Thanks to a rented nautical craft, I was able to pass over the top of the waves. Though this tale would not continue as blissfully as intended.
