Short status updates that may end up elsewhere, too.
Wanted to update my /uses page with game consoles, but then my browser froze. That said, I don’t actively use any of them, right now. (Not a collector, either. Just happy to (still) have them around.) And I’m not ready to list my fridge, oven, stove, washing machine, lawn mower or car, yet.

At some point, though, I started to feel like the balance got out of whack, and I could do more good by putting my work on alternate networks and giving people a reason to get off Twitter.
Rootless Docker is fun, but you’d better set those environment variables in your systemd and crontab files as well.
Was thinking of launching a (second?) public Aperture instance, but what I’d really like to see is a Microsub aggregator with an integrated, web-based reader and an API, a bit like Mastodon. One that uses a built-in polling mechanism, too, rather than a 3rd-party service (i.e., Watchtower).

Looking to start a personal wiki to save all sorts of little bits of knowledge, for use at a later time. Like information I come across online, on a particular guitar model or arcade cabinet. Or code snippets—why not? Then again, those are all things I could just write about right here.
Should look into stopping Aperture from removing things like tables and figures. One day.

Did what’s hip and created a(n undoubtedly still incomplete) /uses page. As this is a personal site, made sure to include my collection of affordable guitars. https://jan.boddez.net/uses

[Y]ou have to do marketing on your own, [outside] of the App Store. Just like always. The App Store brings nothing to the table. So while it’s true [that] all of an iOS app’s users come via the App Store, it’s only true because there’s no other option.
Oh, hi there. I’m the only person in the world not too crazy about bottom navigation tabs.

It might just be my IndieWeb filter bubble talking, but I think there is a renewed interest in personal websites.

Niks mis mee. Net daarom wil niemand in een regering met maar één zetel op overschot. Afijn, tot we (federaal) alsnog een minderheidskabinet krijgen. (Ook niks mis mee, overigens. Heeft het parlement nog ‘ns wat te zeggen.)
