Berlin. Podcasts, writing, drawing, code.

A list of the things I make and where to find them, in case you are interested or I die. Or both.

Notes from the cooldown

Six days since Day 24. Pull the Plug went into cooldown. Eortes met a real phone, PodReddit grew a verification harness, No Rush is heading to the Play Store, Outside got a real map plus 728 Berlin playgrounds, and a Discord bot started buzzing my phone when the code does.

Podcasts

Code

Pull the Plug — Mission 1 overview. A long horizontal data-hall level with server racks, cyan node-status screens, and the breaker room high on the right.

Pull the Plug — a one-button climb against a narrator that's losing it

A 2D vector one-button climber for Steam, iOS, and Android. Six pieces of AI infrastructure, one mission each, one off-switch at the top. The narrator is the AI you are trying to shut down. It starts calm. It does not stay calm. Playable work-in-progress on phone or desktop.

No Rush — a calm parchment-toned banner with a single green dot above the wordmark and the tagline 'It's okay to not be available.'

No Rush — the slow encrypted messenger

A calm encrypted messenger. No push, no badge, no green dot, no read receipts. From Berlin. Live prototype you can install to your home screen and take for a spin. Free. The code goes open.

Eortes — the Today screen. A parchment background showing the date 'Κυριακή 31 Μαΐου', a green Κατάλυση (fast-free) pill, the names celebrating, and a row of name chips below.

Eortes — Greek name-days and fasting, done right

A bilingual Greek Orthodox name-day and fasting app for the diaspora and Greece. No backend — the calendar is computed on the phone from the date of Pascha, so it cannot rot the way every other εορτολόγιο app eventually does. Offline. No ads. One small payment unlocks reminders. App Store and Play Store soft-launch coming.

Fair Rating — Truer Google Maps ratings for German businesses

Fair Rating — German Review Removal Adjuster

A Chrome extension that fixes Google Maps ratings for businesses that have mass-removed negative reviews under German defamation law. Reads Google's own disclosure, recalculates the rating, shows it as a badge.

TabNoodle — One clean browser, one click.

TabNoodle — One-click tab cleanup

A Chrome extension that scores every open tab, auto-groups the keepers, and lets you swipe the rest away. Close the noise, keep the signal — private by default, all data stays in your browser.

Writing

thirty.gr

Σκέφτομαι και Γράφω — a personal blog of travel guides and quieter reflections from my thirties. In Greek.

robotaki.gr

Science news, short and fun. In Greek. An older project — hasn't been updated in almost a decade, but the archive is still there.
