My translation program and the Azores

 
26th to 28th 2026

Sun 28 Jun 2026, 18:43:00 CET OK, here I am again. It was only a few days ago. Surely I'm good? But wait, we'll see when I have time to publish this update. It's far too often that I write updates and then don't have time to publish them.

Just so you know, this article was first written in Swedish and then automatically translated into English using a Python program I developed. I've tested it a bit and it seems to work perfectly. It is not only the text of the article itself, but also all menus, links, buttons, headings, etc. which is translated. So far it seems to be working perfectly. I just have to check that it works on all my computers - the Linux machines (actually kind of interesting, here at home I've decommissioned all my Windows machines and I only use Linux or macOS these days) and my amazing Macbook laptop. So now I sit and type with my new mechanical Keychron Q7 keyboard (it sounds, works and feels absolutely fantastic). It's absolutely amazing!

So many amazing things have happened lately. Hence my interest in writing and updating you with some fresh new things. but to be completely honest my time is running out. I have two 3D prints running (should be ready very soon) as I sit and write this.

I can't believe that next week is vacation. We're heading to the Azores! Wi will spend 2 weeks on the island of San Miguel, in two different houses (which we rented via AirBnb as always) and then I have also rented a car for the whole time we are there. As we always do (same concept as "Eliza was here", mem now I did everything myself.) because it's important to be able to get around the island on our terms.

I will definitely write more before I leave, maybe this weekend, but now I have to go to bed. It's already one o'clock and I haven't slept because of the extreme weather. Tomorrow also the beginning of a new working week.

I actually have LOTS of pictures that I prepared, but that will be for another time...

Did you know that... I'm trying to find an interesting historical event that happened on this very day. Sun 28 Jun 2026, 18:43:00 CET Did you know that today in 2000 is when the actor Nils Poppe Read more about it on Wikipedia. dies.
