Web developer and Studio Lead at Deloitte Digital in Düsseldorf, Germany.
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.
Could not start the "Secrets" app due to this issue. Switched to Keepass instead.
I'd like one day please where I did not need to reset, reboot, refresh, contact support or generally have to figure out how to achieve what I actually wanted to do on my devices because of some technical issue or an "oops message".
A new week brings a new Android issue to resolve. The phone now goes into screen lock whenever I play a video from Firefox. Having a hard time ploughing through loads of crappy websites to be able to find any thing remotely related to find out what to do about this. The Internet is a mess.
#Anyoneelse having this annoying Android app issue where authentication does not persist in an app if the app's storage is NOT on the "Internal Shared Storage", but on the extra SD card? Security over convenience I suppose.
Install of Ubuntu Budgie complete - now setting up everything. Already found my first issue with VScode. The window overlaps all other windows all the time and I cannot seem to find a setting to make it act normally. No biggy for now.
Replaced Rainloop with Roundcube on my Yunohost server after reading about the severe security issue and the lack of patching from the maintainers.

The children's books "Elephant & Piggie" by Mo Willems are highly recommended. My three year old loves them. We got the full 25 issue box set for Christmas and have been reading one or two of them to him every night now.

Had a really bad experience trying to get the V-Tech "Download Manager" for their Magic Book 3D to work on Windows 10 - the application window did not resize and I had to put the screen size to a ridiculous 480x640 pixels to be able to get to some point where I could actually use the buttons in the application.
Somehow it detected the 3D Magibook on USB, but then, after waiting for the app to "load", and I was able to see the books to add the media of, the USB connection all of sudden disappeared and I was stuck again. I tried four times to get through the process to no avail.
Luckily I have a Macbook from work. I am not really supposed to use it for private applications, but in this case I was a little desperate. So I installed the "Download Manager" for Mac on it and had to mess a bit with disk access for it work, but was happy to see that all worked well on the Mac version of the application. First of all, a "firmware upgrade" window popped up and I had to go through the whole process.
I am suspecting that this firmware issue is the cause of the Windows problems. After the firmware upgrade, I was able to get the media for the new book we got our son, using the Mac app. But haven't tried with the Windows 10 version of the app.
Disappointing that the experience with the application on Windows 10 is so bad. So I wrote the customer service about it. Let's see what happens next.
Very happy to read this! I've had the Bootstrap vs a modern framework issue on my to do list for a while now, but family, work and other stuff just kept me pushing this downwards. Also perhaps the future for Known was well, unknown. That you are still seeing the potential of Known, makes me want try to invest real time on it again. Won't make any promises yet.

Pretty proud that I was able to replace the camera modules in my #FairPhone 3 with the latest camera upgrades.
It is really awesome how Fairphone made a truly up-gradable phone possible and they made it really easy to take apart the phone.
The process does require steady hands and some nerve to execute. Detaching the screen from the frame was exciting. You need to get everything to "click" and not "break".
Everything came apart as planned and taking out the old modules and putting in the new was no issue. I did forget to take away one of the blueish protective covers of the front-facing camera module, after I had put the phone back together. So I had the exercise of taking apart the phone twice.
Followed the instructions from Fairphone themselves
The old modules are on their way to IFixit in Stuttgart Germany for refurbishment or recycling.

Added this issue to the Known "staticpages" plugin Github project. Going to try to solve this in the next days.
Almost every web page has links which open in a new tab leaving the other web page still available. For example, news agencies will tweet about recent events on Twitter: the tweet contains a short description of the article and a link to see the full story on their web page. internet, javascript, security, syndicated, web
Actually getting fed up again with Windows 10 because of the issue in my previous post. The challenge is that I've dug myself into Windows with relying on Windows Storage Spaces for my hard-drive storage. I would first need to invest in a decent NAS.

Trying to obtain an Access Token for IndiePub with IndieAuth to be used in IFTTT requests so I can link other Web Services with my site.
I was able before to get a token using https://
This post is about trying to solve this issue.
Got the endpoints of my server using:
https://
After entering all the fields in "Gimme A Token" and going through the process to get the access token, I end up on https://
What is causing this "client mismatch"? Did Known get safer or is "gimme-a-token" broken?
Going to reach out to Seb and Marcus in the next days.
Found that Greg had a similar issue with Monocle some months ago: https://
So I can rule out that "Gimme-A-Token" is broken.
Thanks to the greate people on the #knownchat IRC channel (thanks Aaron, Greg and sknebel) I have a pointer towards htaccess and http/https redirecting. Looking into that now.
It seems that for a correct IndieAuth authentication, I had to add a hard-coded "me" url in the head of the Known head.tpl.php file so the Known homepage would always have this link:
<!-- Hardcoded me url --> <link href="https://social.johanbove.info" rel="me" class="u-url">
This resolved the https://
But unfortunately I'm still getting "Client mismatch" errors with "Gimme a token" most of the time. I did manage to get once an actual token which I can now use again for IFTTT PESOS syndication.
This Eslint 6 issue made me lose three hours of work today.
@cogdog Handling spam comments should get is own issue in the Github project and perhaps some clever PHP coder could whip a better admin together to go in the next Known release.
