Web developer and Studio Lead at Deloitte Digital in Düsseldorf, Germany.
It feels like the uphill battle to not be totally siloed into big tech is getting harder and harder to power through. It's just taking too much of my time NOT giving into Google's and Microsoft's whims and demands, especially on a mobile device.
At least once a month:
```bash
git branch list
git branch -D list
```
Having two large cats has the advantage that both my feet are comfy warm when they both cosy up to me.
The problem with Obsidian on desktop is that it is an Electron based application and that it therefor comes with the usual Electron related problems and bugs. For example - due to GPU acceleration issues in Electron, Obsidian is starting with an unusable black screen on Fedora VM running on Apple M1. The most frustrating part: it worked for a while, until it didn't. There doesn't seem to be real attention to this issue from Obsidian's side. So good thing that machine is not my main PC.
Why are music streaming rights still bound to geographical, economical and politicial boundries? I cannot listen to a song on Deezer because it is not licensed to be streamed in Germany, yet it is in Belgium. Music is for all the people. How is this not hurting the artists instead of helping them?
If humanity had to be digitally "rebooted" for whatever reason, what software would the survivors need to install after a fresh start? Thinking of stuff like Linux, Git, C compiler, etc - Let's say that they have a working PC with
Is it possible to fall in love with a note taking app? I think I just did with Obsidian. Seriously cool how fast I was able to reorganize my messy text based notes were. I even managed to identify a bunch of duplicates. (the result of different trials with naming schemes caused that)
The revolution will show up in your RSS feeds.
Fixed one problem, another one jumps up; pictures from webmentions are not being displayed. An error 500 is happening somwhere in the image proxy code. Let's dig in!
The error in the error log is "Looks like something went wrong, image was zero bytes big!"
N is starting to think that eating animals is wrong. He's almost six. We're going to need a bigger vegatarian cookbook.
Seems like the Mastodon POSSE from my Known site is borked. Argh. Something to fix again this week.
Jumped on the Obsidian train - was keeping my notes in markdown already for some time, but it got a bit disorganised - now hoping to bring back a bit of structure with Obsidian's organisational features. Syncing everything between my phone and my PC using Syncthing.
It’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Month
Imagine a world where the 1 in 5 kids who don't survive today could grow up and live their dreams. Your donation can make that a reality for more kids than you imagine, who depend on lifesaving research to survive. Every cents counts.

I find that Khan Academy has some good explanations on these math problems.
How do you make time to actually sit down and read a book?
What if I told you, you could recreate the base functionality of Jira using Confluence page-properties and page labels?
My five year old loves the "Making Fun" makers show on Netflix. He calls it the "Building Buddies" and that would have been a more awesome name for the clever show.

The sad state of burning to CD media on Linux...

Why are we keeping all our sent emails in a single folder? Why not organise it by recipient or thread?
On PC I am luckily managing; just on an Android device, taking care of setting everything up again after a factory reset, takes way more time just because I don't use the standard apps and I am wondering if it all is worth paying the price of time for. More privacy, perhaps, less time, for sure. Not everyone enjoys dealing with tech and software or even has the time for this - so that's why big tech will always win the general crowd.
