+Title: First Flattr
+Tags: en, flattr, cc, flattr, free culture
+
+9 months ago I decided to try Flattr__. I created an account, put some money on
+it, started flattring and `made myself flattrable`__. But nothing happened. Also
+sometimes you don't know if the people you are flattring will even reclaim your
+flattrs (in services that automatically provides flattr links).
+
+__ https://flattr.com/
+__ http://www.llucax.com.ar/blog/blog/post/-235be78e
+
+Conclusion, I got quite disappointed. But today I see the light again, as
+I received my `first and only flattr`__ (for eventxx__). Thanks whoever you are,
+anonymous hero, you brought hope again to humanity :P
+
+__ https://flattr.com/thing/1141699/eventxx
+__ http://www.llucax.com.ar/proj/eventxx/
+
+Anyway, I'll try to give it a shot again, and try to keep the wheel moving.
+
+You should do that too.

+Title: The Black Keys - Turn incompressible
+Tags: en, music, album, 2014, the black keys, black keys, turn blue, compression, jpg, png
+
+Maybe you heard about the new album from The Black Keys. Maybe you didn't. In
+any case, I don't want to talk about the album (which is good BTW), I want to
+talk about the album cover:
+
+.. image:: ##POST_URL##/07-the-black-keys-turn-blue.jpg
+   :align: center
+   :alt: The Black Keys - Turn Blue album cover
+   :target: ##POST_URL##/07-the-black-keys-turn-blue-big.jpg
+
+See how bad it looks? Now click on the image and see how good it looks (in terms
+of quality, the album cover is pretty ugly anyway :P). The thing is, this stupid
+pattern is very hard to compress, so even using a JPG quality of 90%, you get
+a quite big file size and a pretty crappy image quality (126KB for a 500x500
+image is quite a lot, 294KB for PNG using compression 9). If you look at the big
+image, even the colors are different, so the image makes resizing algorithms
+also go nuts, the image looks darker (or is this just an ilusion because of the
+changed relationship between both colors?).
+
+Try it yourself, download the image, resize it, save it with different formats
+and qualities.
+
+Coincidence? I guess not.
