Automatically pulling and committing/pushing repositories on app open/close with iOS Shortcuts Automations and Working Copy is pretty cool :D

The day starts good when you get out of bed and slip on cat puke…

The last days I looked again at org and org-roam and thought how cool those things are, but it feels a bit clumsy. So today I thought: be happy with the tools you already use and work for you.

And then I read a blog-post about mu4e and I am back playing around in emacs…

Wenn du mit deinem Kind für eine Klassenarbeit lernst und feststellst, dass min. eins der Arbeitsblätter aus der Schule mehrere Fehler abgedruckt hat…

Harry Connolly recently released the eBooks which I backed (The Iron Gate and The Flood Circle) from the 20 Palaces-series.

I can really recommend the series. The books are good light reads set in an interesting urban fantasy-setting.

For people who use #beorg and #workingcopy on #iOS: You can set up an Automation that runs on closing beorg and will automatically commit and push. #shortcuts #automation

Things I won’t understand: here macOS have a CD with mp3s.

macOS: nope. Finder vomits, rsync breaks because file vanishes.

Here Linux take the same USB-DVD-drive I just used with the same CD.

Linux: Thanks, I will happily rsync them for you. Do you need anything else?

I made it to a magic circle meeting after several months of not being able to go. I am finally a member and suddenly I cannot find the time to go the meetings :(

Intergalactic meets Ghostbusters

I love it!

TIL: Disney+ hat alle elf Staffeln von MAS*H :D

Dreimal Werbung in 30 Minuten beim Stimmenfang-Podcast…puh…

On Sunday a new D&D-campaign starts and I am playing a wizard. Let’s see how that works out. It is also the first time that I used the character sheet on Roll20. Beyond spoiled me so much.

I think I just use Beyond20 or roll in Dice by PCalc.

Mastodon-Gatekeeping 101: crossposters are evil and let them know it!

🤦‍♂️ Btw I write on micro.blog and just crosspost from there to mastodon and Twitter. I think you can follow me even there directly from mastodon instead of on mastodon.social.

Tbh I don’t like the E.M.M.I.-scenes in Metroid Dread…

„Skip Intro“ on a Simpsons-episode should jump to the couch-joke not to the TV after it.

Sometimes I think back to the moment when I saw for the first time an iPod Touch (they were earlier available in Germany as the iPhone). Swiping that cover flow just felt like the future. I don’t think I ever had the same feeling about any piece of technology ever again.

It is 2022 and people still argue what operating system is better… How about just using the system you are happy with and try not to convince others why the thing you are using is better than what they are using?

why should sysctls be in the documentation of systemd? sysctls are a kernel thing.

The one thing I cannot figure out is where sysctls for Linux are documented.

The latest article by Cory Doctorow which let’s me doubt modern technology and that I should use more open source-technologies:

pluralistic.net/2022/10/2…

I shouldn’t read @doctorow so much. Then I want to use Linux and phones with something like LineageOS.

To those who already using macOS Ventura in beta. Do you use Stage Manager? For what?

Watching videos it seems that it reduces screen real estate and I have no idea why I should use it over just cmd+tab.

I haven’t used it yet, that’s why I am asking.

Why am I looking at orgmode again? And yes it can do all the things I want until I look in the direction of iOS where it gets more complicated (even though beorg and plainorg are fine apps).
