The last site update for 2023 is here, without a lot of big changes under the hood, but with two new themes.

I’m now taking advantage of the easy theming component and barebones design of the site to bring two new themes:

  • Peach Fuzz β€” This is to honour the Pantone Color of the Year, I’ve decided to use it only as an accent colour, rather than make all the site peachy.
  • Xmas β€” A festive theme to fit the month of December with some fresh holiday colours. Candy canes are on the house.

Also did some mobile tweaks.


I added a snippet of code to check all my movies against a ratings CSV file to see which of the movies I featured on the site doesn’t have a rating added on IMDb, to keep things consistent.

This just takes all the movie pages and compares them to a CSV looking at the first parameter, the IMDb ID (index (.) 0 being the first value in the comma-separated line). index (.) 1 is the second value in the csv, the rating itself. To display it, I use the shortcode {{ < ratings_dump > }}

	{{ $data := getCSV "," "static/ratings.csv" }}
	{{ range $data }}

			<strong>{{ (index (.) 1) }}</strong>
			{{ $shown = true }}
		{{ end }}
	{{ end }}
	{{ if eq $shown false }}<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/{{ .Params.moviebox.imdb }}">Not Rated</a>{{ end }}
	β€” {{ .Title }}<br>
{{ end -}}

Its output can be seen on this page.


At the end, because I’m too lazy to write something more, I’m leaving you with 6 images generated by midjourney (as well as the post’s cover photo) featuring some ideas of computer-y Christmas trees.
