Satin Web is now Octua

Satin Web is now Octua

9/19/2019

 
A few days ago, I wrote a post about the future of Satin Web. After careful consideration, I have made a major decision about the future of Satin Web. I’m renaming it to Octua.
Why Octua? It sounds cool! It doesn’t have any special meaning really, it’s just a fun name!
I would also like to clarify that Octua is still the same program as Satin Web. All the features you love aren't going away.

What else is new?

I have added a ton of new features in this update! Some of them include:
  • New icons: I have completely replaced all of the icons so the user interface is more consistent.
  • Updated context menus: I have added some new context menus to the program.
  • Favicon: You can now easily see a site's favicon. It is shown in the top right corner of the program.
  • Theme: Octua now remembers your selected theme. Hooray!
  • New homepage: I have ditched the Satin Web Portal and set Google to the homepage.
  • Bookmarks: I have added a bookmarks manager. It's pretty cool!
  • Color picker: Easily pick a color and view its information.
  • Bug fixes: ​I have fixed a lot of bugs!
That's not even all that's new with the Octua update! However, I don't want to make this post too long. I hope you enjoy this update! If you want to check it out, click here. Thanks for reading and have an amazing day!

What's in John's Backpack? (EDC)

I may no longer be a computer science major, but I'm still fascinated by electronics of all kinds. That's why I take great pleasure in writing about my "everyday carry," that being the devices that I regularly take along with me. These are often being swapped around, as I am an enthusiast at heart, but some of these have stuck around for a long time. So, here's the list: Phone: iPhone 15 Pro (128 GB) It's a very nice phone. That's about all I have to say about it. Like most people, I'm pretty apathetic toward iPhones. I prefer iOS for my needs, and it does what I need it to. 'Nuff said. Laptop: MacBook Pro 14" (2023, M3) I feel bad for my MacBook Pro. It gets tossed around in my bag, is constantly being used, and has a fair few battle scars. But it keeps on going. This laptop has gotten me through college thus far, and I'm hoping I won't have to replace it for a few more years. Watch: Apple Watch SE (the newest one) I swear that this i...

I love my Instax Mini SE. Here's why!

Hey, folks! I did it. I finally got into instant photography. And I love it. Admittedly, I've had some experience with instant photography before now. I got my first instant camera at a thrift store in 2022. It was a Polaroid OneStep from the 90s, and while film was still readily available for it, it was far too expensive to justify using it regularly. As cool as instant photography was, I accepted that it wasn't economically viable for me and moved on. ...Until about a month ago! On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, she introduced me to her Fujifilm Instax Mini 11. It was a much more compact and modern instant camera than my Polaroid. It also used smaller film slides. This was a big deal, as she informed me that the smaller film came at a smaller price. I was intrigued. A couple weeks later, I ventured to Walmart and splurged. I picked up the cheapest Instax they sold: The Mini SE. It only cost about $57, and it came bundled with 10 slides of film. I also picked up an ...
