It was a nice HWC on Wednesday. (I already wanted to post this photo yesterday, but had to repair my Micropub media endpoint first…)

Today I will participate again at the HWC Europe/London (remotely, but this time with a webcam). I am looking forward to some nice discussions. Until then I’m going to program a little bit on my own CMS.

I’ll join my first IndieWeb event today! Quite excited and slightly confused by the British time zone (it’s -1 hour to my time), but I’m sure it will be fun talking to other IndieWeb people. 😌

Finally I have an external wireless mouse and keyboard (Logitech MK235) for my work computer, so I can connect it to my monitor at home. Hopefully this will have a positive effect on my eyes and my posture, always working on a laptop is quite exhausting.

Beautiful poem and so true, Henrique! Even as someone who has so far attached less importance to physical contact, I can now absolutely understand how important it is.

Physical contact is much more important than it seems to us. Yes, emotional connections are important. But emotional connections with physical contact reach cosmic proportions.

Now that most IndieWeb meetings are on video, maybe I should consider joining one as well. 🤔 I just have to overcome my shyness of speaking in English in front of other people. 🙈 And I need to implement RSVPs in my blog theme.

I just switched from my Hugo-based webmention storing method (that triggered a site rebuild for every webmention) to Horst Gutmanns’s webmentiond. There are still a few things to improve, but I will try to submit more pull requests, like support for Telegram as a notification service and a few other issues.

Automation is awesome! I just automated my blogroll generation by using the Miniflux API and building a small Go script to download and parse the OPML, filter it and convert it to JSON. Longer explanation following soon…

I have too many clothes that I don’t wear anymore and there’s too much stuff in my wardrobe. So I use my holidays to move into another room and get rid of the old stuff. That’s fun (not really…)! 😅

There’s a huge park near my flat and on days with great weather 🌤️ it’s a real pleasure walking through the park. Green trees 🌳, fresh air 🌬️ and the feeling of being outside the city 🏙️. It’s really nice. 😌
