ooh, very excited to read this today! I'm looking at adding some coffee automation to my mornings as they are about to start much, much earlier.

2026-06-29 17:25:13 CEST

that’s understandable. I’m mostly just playing whack-a-mole with ASN’s at this point.

I would love to hear about your mitigation strategies!

I picked up a 1440p 144hz monitor for my desktop awhile back and I’m surprisingly fond of the refresh rate.

I think this form would work well. People often get bitter and sour confused so it’s good not to ask about that.

2026-06-07 01:47:04 CEST

- reply

oh man I do this every month or two but there’s no real organization to it. I’ll take a peek at the form!

2026-06-05 18:34:25 CEST

- reply

ooh this is a very nice improvement!

2026-06-05 14:33:20 CEST

what’s your take on this versus the Fellow Aiden? I’ll be waking up much, much earlier in the fall and I wouldn’t mind some automation.

man how big is your lawn? I’m patiently waiting for lawn robots to become somewhat affordable and they’re awfully close now.

maybe the bugs have been fixed by now, but I ran into all sorts of weird edge cases with Polars being used as the query layer for a web app.

if you’re going the route of C, and you want an OLAP database to use with or without Parquet, I’ve had a good experience with DuckDB.

@npub1lyn…ve6v any chance I can get mute as a swipe gesture in a future release?

how did you find the model’s performance with Svelte? I haven’t had a lot of success there.

2026-04-01 23:24:02 CEST

our Corgi is also gentle with baby bunnies. Sometimes he moves them around and I have to go put them back in the nest. The always grow up just fine though ... unless they try and get into the neighbors yard which often contains a Shiba Inu.

I’m not seeing it in the F1 TV app at the moment either so maybe something is broken.

2026-03-10 00:50:29 CET

on iOS I see nothing. I don’t see anything on tvOS either but maybe this particular AppleTV is too old 🤔

where the hack are the camera options in the Apple TV app?

you are allowed to get up to at least 8 /64 prefixes but only if you request each one individually

oh, ha, sorry! I should have stated that I’ve been trying to get something through that damn firewall for a while now. I moved too slow and it was me who failed, not you. I am very much looking forward to someone cracking it.

I tried to go down this rabbit hole with a UDM-Pro but I’ll be moving soon and the new ISP apparently doesn’t have IPv6 so … task successfully failed I guess.

the pseudo windowing system is actually kind of neat but I believe it isn’t available on all iPads. Maybe some kind of memory limitation.

my favorite bit of iOS font behavior is if you have an input with a font of less than 16 pixels, Safari will zoom when the input is focused.

I haven’t dug too deep into the individual bugs yet but Firefox now gives me more grief at work than Safari and that’s saying something.

I have my own task system that enqueues tasks into Google Cloud Tasks (and executes them in a webhook-fashion on the web workers). I wonder I could migrate to django-tasks if my task worker is the same process as the web worker?
