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?

The latest article by Cory Doctorow which let’s me doubt modern technology and that I should use more open source-technologies:
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).
Wenn man im AppStore nach HyMo sucht, bekommt man romeo und grindr angeboten. Die Entwickler sollten nochmal am Namen drehen…
Ab Dezember hab ich kein BVG-Ticket mehr, weil mir Corona gezeigt hat, dass ich fast alles mit dem Fahrrad machen kann. Und jetzt so selten U- und S-Bahn fahre, dass selbst das 49€-Ticket zu teuer wäre…
I am trying to “get” reverse polish notation but when I have an expression with multiplications, divisions, additions, subtractions, parentheses and exponents I have to jump all the time in my head when I have to input an operand and when a value. Am I doing something wrong?
I read my eBooks mainly on my iPhone in the Kindle-app because there are times where I like to use a Kindle. Is there any solution out there which allows me the same but self-hosted? Read an ebook on different devices (incl eInk) and sync my reading progress/highlights/notes?
Die Pfandsummen bei Brodowin sind schon jedes Mal der Hammer. Bestellungsbetrag von etwas über 60€ und 50€ Pfand für Kisten und Deckel.
Derry Girls Season 3 was great again.
But that really felt like the end of the series with the Good Friday referendum at the end.
Need to draw things like diagrams in ASCII on a Mac? Use Monodraw. It is pretty cool and not that expensive.
Wasteland Rebels-Episode über Emissionen, die man bei der Internetbenutzung so erzeugt/einsparen kann: Digitale Emissionen - Welche Emissionen verursacht das Internet?
Why am I so fascinated with emacs and return all the time to (neo)vim (for editing) and OmniFocus (instead of using orgmode)?
I really try to like it but somehow it doesn’t work out between us 🫤
Batch converting mp4 to m4a in Fish is really easy:
for i in *.mp4
set name (basename "$i" .mp4).m4a
ffmpeg -i "$i" -vn -acodec copy "$name"
end
I did my first real weekly review in ages. It took close to two hours but more stuff is clearer now, more next actions, some things delegated. And I am brain dumping all week. I really feel like I am getting back control more and more. #gtd
