now go and find that one of those houndreds of extensions that is the reason for this experience. ;)

Maybe it's just not the right time to start using @drizzleorm.bsky.social ; current/legacy version has its issues, beta version has its issues; not getting anything done this way. ;(

Thank you Mark Carney - that is one heck of a speech. www.ft.com/content/7d96...

Would be good to see a picture on normal condition for comparison. ;) Because I’ve never been there yet :(

my Workadventure.re google chrome app did not load today. If this happens to you as well, you need to flush/reset the @developer.chrome.com DNS Cache or use another browser. ;) #TIL #DNS #Cache

Great blog post, great ideas. Btw. I shared being asked for tests as well, but in my case there weren't any at that time. Haha ;)

Why I Stopped Creating package.json Scripts

Over the past year, I've dramatically reduced the number of scripts in my package.json files. What started as a gradual shift has become a deliberate practice: minimize abstractions, maximize clarity.

Internet access to websites that use Cloudflare is so slow in the evenings. Is it true that this only affects Telekom customers? Have you noticed this too? And above all, what can be done about it?
Some colleagues use a VPN to bypass the problem, but that can't be the solution.

At the moment, it still seems to be the case that I don't look as old as I am. I'd like to keep it that way.

I don't want to answer that, because I don't want to feel that old.

Astro is joining Cloudflare The Astro Technology Company team — the creators of the Astro web framework — is joining Cloudflare. We’re doubling down on making Astro the best framework for content-driven websites, today and in th...

This is great for the Astro team, but it's honestly worrying for the web as a whole. More and more open-source project teams (Astro, Bun, Nuxt, Svelte…) are joining bigger corporations instead of being able to remain independant.

I just published a Fastify plugin to render Svelte CSR or SSR with/without hydration. It's not feature complete but does work quite well already. Feel free to give it a try or send feedback.

I understand the reason for two-factor authentication, but for rarely used services, it's just painful when its gone with the old phone years ago. Now it takes up to three days. Will they trust my email address, which is the same for decades – is it enough? #quick #fast #inahurry #authentication

3D render view of openscad showing four different ikea hooks hanging in a small square IKEA skadis pegboard

Working on some common and some special #Skadis hooks for my #IKEA #pegboard again with #OpenSCAD for #3Dprinting

Does anyone have any recommendations on the best way to position round rods parallel to the print bed?

What I don't like about social networks is that giving likes, boosts or to quote/repost alone is not as social as writing a few words, giving feedback, sharing ideas or showing appreciation, just saying.
Now lets see what I can boost next. ;)

md Blog | Halftone spiral I saw this video in different social media streams of mine and had to find out how such a single spiral path portrait can be created.

And here's the blog post about it, plus some bonus: a small #GCode creator for sprial pictures. #3dprinting matthias.dittgen.name/blog/halfton...

a 3D-printed version of my avatar picture, drawn as a single, uninterrupted spiral. The printer never stops, the nozzle follows a spiral path from the inside out, continuously. What changes along the way is the amount of material being extruded. #3dprint #spiral #halftone #portrait

Let's see what post triggers more reactions, #3Dprinted content or this years self made #Christmas #cookies (Kruidnoten 🇳🇱 and Vanillekipferl 🇦🇹). ;) :P

Photo of my 3d printers hotbed plate with the final print of a halftone spiral black on white showing my profile picture.

I've got it! The GCode for the spiral now fits, and the result is impressive. #extrusionRate #3dprinting #halftone #picture #portrait #gcode

Sure, I still remember AWT and Swing, but it feels like a waste of brain capacity now. It's useless knowledge these days. They'll call us boomers for that. ;)

It's amazing that it has been around for so much longer than, say, Flash.

So Long and Thanks for All the Applets Java 26 will be the first Java version to ship without the Applet API - 10 years after its deprecation has it been removed by JEP 504.

In case you wondered why your blog posts don't have any lake reflection logos any longer - JDK removed the support for applets:
