Currently replaying good old GTA IV. Totally forgot how damn sad the story is.

Valve announced a TV/desktop PC called Machine (store.steampowered.com/sale/steamma...), a new VR headset "Frame" (store.steampowered.com/sale/steamfr...) and a new Steam controller. Amazing. They keep doing just the right stuff! 🤯😍

Currently rewatching the original Gremlins and man… this movie is ABSOLUTE GOLD!!! 😄😍

After the newest fuckery from #MinIO, I tried #SeaweedFS and Garage, and then decided to just go with #Backblaze for my server backups, with replication to my Synology NAS. Sometimes, #selfhosting is the tedious, nerve-wrecking answer to a question, whose real solution is paying $0.5 a month. 🫠

This is an INSANELY good article on how to build your own key-value #database with everything you need to know. 🤯🤩 www.nan.fyi/database #programming #databases

Battlefield 6 is out? Fine. I do t give a fuck.

Ray Daltons new song Blood Running is the summer vibes song that’s coming 3 months late. But a total banger nevertheless! 😍🎶 music.apple.com/de/album/blo...

Turns out - for whatever reason, maybe I'm just dumb - the "Ask to create and fill Passkeys" option within the 1Password browser extension was just turned off. 🫠

"We've normalized software catastrophes to the point where a Calculator leaking 32GB of RAM barely makes the news." I feel that. Broken software is everywhere. Everything has become so complex that barely anyone can comprehend what's really going on. 😟 techtrenches.substack.com/p/the-great-...

Does anyone on this earth know how to get #1Password #passkeys working inside #Brave? I've been trying to set this up multiple times already for various websites. But neither Brave nor 1Password work together at all. ☹️

fuck vercel, fuck Next.js, fuck Svelte, fuck Turborepo, fuck SWR, fuck SWC Posing with the architect of a genocide for sales leads is an insane and deeply immoral stance these projects cannot separate themselves from the CEO of the company who funds them

Why’s everyone so shocked and sad about EA being bought by Saudis and Kushner? Like, #EA has been a shitty company for years, publishing one crap game after another. I haven’t bought a single EA game for a decade or so. Just stop buying their shit. 🤦

Fun story: I have such a box. At some day, despite my soul telling me not to do it, I threw some of the very old cables into the trash to save space. You know how the story ends: just a few weeks lauter, I needed one of those old, special cables. Keep all the cables!

One of my favourite shots from #Tokyo. The #shadows, the #architecture, the security man walking around. 🤩 #japan #portrait #blueskyphotography #photography #streetphotography

There is soooo much #nostalgia everywhere. People want their childhood sweets back. Or beautiful 80s cars. Or solid, non-smart household appliances. But yet, not a single company seems to be interested. WHY??? Like… that’s free money lying around! 🤯

Is anyone else experiencing weird behavior of Github's Dependabot since a few days? It opens dozens of single pull requests, despite instructing it to group PRs for different ecosystems and patch levels. ☹️ #github #dependabot

9 years ago I uploaded my first photo to #Unsplash, back when the site was rather small. This month, my account crossed 40 million views and 280,000 downloads! 😳🤩 Many photos were even featured on the front page, or in specific categories, which is another boost that makes me continue. #photography

Who would've known that I get into the workings of escalators today? 🤓 Interesting deep-dive by Veritasium. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ8e...

Seriously, why do people still buy crap AAA games, like Borderlands 4?

Man... "New Ways to Play" by Fir3music is an awesome track! Just played Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty and the fight scene with that playing in the background is peak gaming experience. 🤯 Might try the track during coding... 👉 soundcloud.com/lackfir3/new...

Working on my new private web dashboard lately. Apple Health, Domains, Steam play times, finances tied to Firefly, Daylio journal import, and way more. Thought about making it source-available, but that would make the deployment more complicated. Would you be interested in having a look? 🤔

Best part of a programmer? Being able to write your own tools, software and dashboards, exactly the way you want it.
