</> htmx - high power tools for html really liking the idea of htmx đ€ If I donât have to learn all this complicated TypeScript/React/NPM garbage, I can just write regular SSA (Server-Side-Apps) and then progressively upgrade to SPA (Single-Page-App) using htmx hmmm đ§
logs/blog: processing some feelings
On my way to install PC DOS 7 in QEMU ⊠which isnât particularly a no-brainer because of IBMâs XDF floppy disks. Iâll get there eventually.
I took advantage of the last sunny, but also 25°C hot day and hiked in the woods. It was so much more pleasant in the forest than out in the sun. The wind could have been a long stronger with that heat. I was completely soaked.
At one point I thought I better grab my camera out of my backpack, so whenever something comes up, Iâm ready. But I was too lazy and thought, well, I just wait until there is a nice subject and keep going instead. No joke, ten meters further I came across two squirrels. A red and a brown one, sitting on a tree at just one and three meters height two meters away from me. If I only had unpacked my bloody cam a few seconds ago! I just watched them sit on the tree and then tried to slowly strip my backpack and grad the cam. It was still booting up when they decided it was enough sitting around and climbed higher. What a silly move on my end, damn.
I tried to improvise some Lyse Street View, but felt really uncomfortable to photograph other peopleâs houses. Somehow my cam produced sooo many blurred shots on the way up still away from the village, itâs unbelievable. I scrapped nearly the entire project. Only very few survived. There were heaps of people on the mountain summit, so I quickly left again.

Looking forward to next weekâs rain and temperature drop to 16°C or even 8°C.
Just a few minutes into my walk I saw a raven chopping up a slow worm in three parts. :-( I rescued the reptile as best as what you can call rescue in that state. Crazy how the the tail and middle part kept on twisting hard for minutes. I didnât see where the raven went hiding, so I can only hope it did not reattack after the slow worm went its way and I left the scene.
The small forest pond was covered in pollen, looked like a liming truck went by. And the other one with the duck was really oily. Way more than last time. Didnât look healthy at all. :-(
This is soooo cool! Matthias on some solar panning camera build and eclipse shenanigans, highly recommended: https://youtu.be/YLDaM0FcXC4
âDexterâ is back on Netflix in Germany. Yay!
I just remembered Mr. Oizo https://youtu.be/qmsbP13xu6k?si=g7yNfWeONis8D5Eh
A family member gave away some old USB sticks and memory cards that they no longer needed. They were âmildly devastatedâ when I told them and then proceeded to demonstrate that itâs often not that hard to recover data from such devices. âBut I deleted all the files?!â Yes, but âŠ
This can get ugly. And lots of people donât know it.
It would be great if devices like digital cameras provided a function like âwipe storage completelyâ. Or, better, try harder at actually deleting files instead of doing things like just writing an 0xE5 on a FAT file system. Donât shift the blame to the user.
I guess the situation is a bit better these days with Android encrypting everything by default and stuff like that ⊠Hopefully.
I added an Atom feed to â7 links of the dayâ. Find some curated links (a few in spanish and french) every morning.

I see myself slowly migrating to Plan 9.
Earliest version of mkws https://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Provider/ShellScript.html đ from the first web site ever.
I have decided to make Go good

Microsoftâs new era of AI PCs will need a Copilot key, says Intel
Intel, Microsoft, Qualcomm, and AMD have all been pushing the idea of an âAI PCâ for months now as we head toward more AI-powered features in Windows. While weâre still waiting to hear the finer details from Microsoft on its big plans for AI in Windows, Intel has started sharing Microsoftâs requirements for OEMs to build an AI PC â and one of the main ones is that an AI PC must have Microsoftâs Copilot ⊠â Read more
Hello! How is everyone?
My coworker started chatting over wall this morning as we were both on the same server investigating something⊠itâs the best chat client haha
We had 11°C and a lot of wind today. I left the house at beautiful sunshine to go into the woods. I had to shelter from the rain under a coniferous tree right away for 10-15 minutes or so.
Many puddles had plenty of spawn in them. Some of the super tiny tadpoles already hatched. Unfortunately, none of them will probably make it, because all those puddles will all dry up in the next one or two months I reckon. Letâs hope for the best, though.
A bird landed in the trees about 30 meters away from me and it appeared to be a larger one, like a buzzard. Only at home at the screen I then saw that it was just a pidgeon. :-)
A bit later, there was a chaffinch happily singing and picking on the forest road. I could close in to about five meters before it flew half a meter further and continued. So I made a few steps, too. That game continued for over five minutes, before it then decided to relocate four meters higher onto a branch to let me pass by beneath. Pretty cool!
Trying to write my own C programs that do TCP/IP on OS/2 Warp 4. Didnât go so well. This operating system is much, much more dead than DOS and itâs super hard to find any information. đ«€
TrueNAS CORE 13 is the end of the FreeBSD version
Bad news from BSD land â the oldest vendor of BSD systems is changing direction away from FreeBSD and toward Linux. NAS vendor iXsystems has been busy this year, but apart from some statements in online user communities, it hasnât been talking about the big news. Back in 2022, we covered TrueNAS CORE 13, the new release of its FreeBSD-based turnkey OS for NAS servers, and in that article we mentioned its new product, the Debian-base ⊠â Read more
if you are not in a âcentral countryâ you are screwed. I thought it would be a good idea to promote a LiberaPay page to build some patronage to my free/open projects, but in Brazil LiberaPay can only handle PayPal and it integrates poorly, it doesnât accept Reais! If you try a direct PayPal donation button it works much better: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5B4MZ78C9J724 ⊠this is so frustrating.
