Tidied up the gaming shelves and tried to follow how a game collector I know puts in his games by not piling them up but putting them in like books (didn’t work everywhere…still I tried my best). It is gar easier to get to the games than trying to pull them out of a pile :)

TIL: shell-redirections with sudo can be done. Just use

sudo /bin/sh -c “echo ‘foobar’ > $file”

How did I never had the idea to do it this way? 🤦‍♂️

Well everyday you learn something new. #linux #unix

The Super Mario-movie was better than expected. And the kids (9 and 12) had a blast.

🎉 btrfs saved me after an upgrade resulted in an unbootable system

Yeah, I found a decent #markdown-app for #iOS that works together with Working Copy: Taio

Now using nb on my #Linux- and #Mac-machines got a lot more useful.

I have automations for automatically pulling, commit/push and that makes sync via #git a breeze.

The time has come. The children begin to understand enough English that my wife and I have to switch to Japanese when they shouldn’t understand something. 😬

How can it be that I did yesterday noon an upper body strength workout and get today evening I feel stiff and aching around my shoulders? Shouldn’t that be closer together time wise?

I tried to let ChatGPT help me with a tool idea I have (organizing magic tricks in videos and books I have).

What it created is a beginning but full of bugs and inconsistent. For example it created a database schema and then uses the wrong column names for some things.

The Dungeons & Dragons-movie was fun 😄

Today I was asked in the train if I do some magic because some youth saw me playing around with cards. I showed some tricks, some other people entered the train and asked: “Oh a magician? Can you show me, too? Is that one from the internet?”

The honest trailer of Metroid Prime Remastered was quite interesting. Maybe I shouldn’t get it after all because I didn’t play it back in the day.

ChatGPT doesn’t know me.

I don’t understand why people use terminal emulators with split panes and tabs and not just tmux. I only see advantages (terminal emulator-independent, survives gui-crashes, you can attach from remote, scriptable, etc).

Are there any disadvantages? #linux #cli #macos

I wanted to try a todo-app after some years again because merge-conflicts in my org-files got annoying again.

First reminders do not work and then it crashes each time when I try to turn a task into a project.

Today I found nb. A nifty shell-script for note-taking in markdown. But it can also grab and convert websites and add them as notes.

But with a server and Shellfish for iOS I created a shortcut that adds websites from Safari.

And I have the notes on my phone thanks to Working Copy.

TIL: there is an app like Dash (macOS) but for #Linux

zealdocs.org

I use Dash nearly every day and Zeal makes a pretty good impression so far. It downloads documentation in the form of docsets and makes it easily searchable offline.

Everybody jokes about being hard to quit but have you ever tried to exit joe with saving?

Watching some magic today

Nur noch schlimmer wäre glaub ich CDU/FDP (und noch schlimmer wenn sie mit undemokratischen Parteien zusammengehen würden).

Aber Schwarz/Rot…oh je Berlin.

Ranga Yogeshwar ist in der neuesten Folge von Last Week Tonight zu sehen.

Die drei ??? und das Erbe des Drachen war deutlich besser als erwartet. Das war kein schlechter Fall. Auch wenn ich Peters Vater in dem Film nicht mochte.

Das ANOHA hat eine Sicherheitsschleuse beim Ausgang.

Beim Eingang versteh ich das ja, aber wofür beim Ausgang?

Potential breakfast found…

In our last session we found out that you can sign up to DnD Beyond only with a google- or an Apple-account. That kind of sucks.

Well, two players are now sharing one Google-account that they only created for Beyond… #rpg #dndbeyond

Practicing with Vernet multiplying balls is kind of painful… #magic #manipulation
