On Saturday, for the first time, I packed my Xiegu X6200 Shortwave TRX, my Difona HF-P1 and went into the Woods. Well actually I set up at the local Heidefläche.

Had some really nice QSOs and there was actually a lot going on on 15m.

Even accidentally hunted some POTAs 😁😀

Congrats and especially Kudos to the authority assigning this in a digital way.

Good morning people! ☀ Yesterday was my 40th birthday, I passed the #HamRadio Exam and my wife gave me this great #Ooni #woodfire #pizza oven.

What did I miss at the #Apple Keynote?(Don't think I'll be getting the 17(ProMax) as there's not much difference (and I love the Titanium) of my 16 Pro Max)

Apple Intelligenz. Beste.

Reminds me of this

South Australia is aiming for 100% renewable energy by 2027. It’s already internationally ‘remarkable’ Experts say the state’s approach could provide a template for what can be achieved elsewhere

www.theguardian.com/environment/...

South Australia wird wohl 2027 die erste größere Region weltweit, die 100 % des Stroms aus Erneuerbaren erzeugt. Aber lasst euch nur weiter von der AfD einreden, im Ausland würde man über Deutschland lachen. Das Gegenteil ist der Fall: Sie überholen uns alle längst & lachen über fossile Nostalgie.

Ich arbeite in der Kinder- und Jugendarbeit. Wir bekommen sehr wenig Geld, arbeiten viel, haben andauernd Überstunden. Nebenbei mache ich noch Lehraufträge & Stadtrats-Mandat in einer Landeshauptstadt. Wenn Neoliberale erzählen, "wir sollen mehr arbeiten", kriege ich ehrlich gesagt das kalte Kotzen.

Früher war alles besser 😆 !!!11!

First thing you see deboarding in Japan.

Wer denkt es sei eine gute Idee Tiere einzusperren und zur Schau zu stellen?

One of the best things about #AndroidStudio is their Animal naming scheme. The best thing is that they're giving tribute to this absolutely underrated whale...

Haven't been using the TimeMachine Service before, just a plain shared folder. But this looks even better now.

Yes true, just did that. 🤞

Thank you! That's a good trick, but unfortunately QTS on my Qnap only lets me set storage Quotas when using a storage pool (which I didn't create as I opted in for a simpler RAID1 static volume setup back then). So I'm out of luck there :-( Guess I'll need to find a different solution.

The 12 TiB HHDs on my #NAS are almost exhausted due to #TimeMachine for one #MacBookPro with a 1TiB SSD taking up roughly 7 TiB of space.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get rid of older revisions of Time Machine backups or somehow shrinken it in general?

I‘m a bit late to the #wwdc25 party, I have not so fond memories when migrating client projects to #ios7 and I‘m excited to also see the project market implications of this.

Anyways, off to the platform state of the union now…

Ich hätte gesagt Metal Gear, Gemini sagt Advance Wars 🤣 wer liegt hier falscher?

I always thought of creating an #Android version of
@bunnyears.app
but never wanted to dive into the rabbithole suppyling updates for two codebases.

Last weekend I decided to spend a couple of hours using #Flutter and, as usual when working with it, I'm so baffled of how productive I am with it.

Yeah… I asked it to generate code for this regexp matching in Zig out of curiosity, and it told me to use this library from Github because Zig doesn't have built-in regexps. The package link didn't work… but I would have included it if it did, because I know zero Zig 😐 dodged a bullet I guess

Have fun 🍻
