In-reply-to » We had a nice family day in Schwäbisch Gmünd: https://lyse.isobeef.org/schwaebisch-gmuend-2025-11-16/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org wow, 31 is truly a telling! Interesting facade on that building on 10! And that roof on 51, oh my! The golden Jesus and tower on 7 are something else too.

I miss Europe like hell, mate! A lot of things around here are younger than me. I don’t feel history, I am history. 😅

On “family day”, I was expecting to see more pictures with people in it. All lovely, nevertheless. Thanks, as always, for the mini-vacation! 🙈

It’s Sunday, and tomorrow I don’t have to work, as I have two weeks of vacation. The first time since May. My only breaks from work were when I hurt my hand and wasn’t able to type for a week, and two free days last week, but those also weren’t really relaxing for me. So I am very much looking forward to the next two weeks! I really feel the exhaustion from the last few months with work sometimes being stressful, the start of my fiancée’s teacher training, and some other topics. But this year again showed me that bi … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » @lyse Oh dear. 🙈 So glad that WfH is a thing now. Imagine how utterly annoying it would be if they expected you to still come in despite this …

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh yeah, once in the quarter to the office is absolutely amazing and luxurious. Thank you teammates and employer! Though, I would already have been on site when these things happened earlier.

Today is my last day of holiday. Back to work again tomorrow. Not looking forward, vacation is just great. So easy to get used to.

Status 2025-07-21
Morning, computer! Spending my days off trying to figure things out.
Some of them will occur in this post. I think best when I’m writing,
after all.

Intro

I’m back from a short vacation since a couple of weeks. I’m still
going to take a few days off every week for a while. I need the break.
It’s been way too many 12-16 hour workdays. I’m nominally working 80%
(~6 hour days), so I figure I’ve been working a lot for free.

Yeah, well, I like the TKey project to succeed. The ideas behind it
have implicatio … ⌘ Read more

10 Families Whose Houses Scared Them to Death
Most people can’t wait to get home after a long day at work. Some can’t even wait to get home after being away on vacation. After all, your house is supposed to be your safe haven. The place where you can be yourself and do whatever you want, be it binge-watching a series for three […]

Some European countries and Canada issue advisories for travelers to the U.S.
Chandelis Duster,  Reporter  -  npr

_Stephan: Over the past three weeks, I have received five emails from SR readers who live in other countries telling me that they are cancelling their plans to come to the United States for vacations or business. A sixth reader, a German medical researcher, told me that she had been offered a research grant that would have required her … ⌘ Read more

It was probably my most productive first week of January so far. Big progress in the apartment: lots of furniture (and a large wall unit) dismantled, two rooms painted and much more. Tomorrow maybe a bit more relaxed program, so that I don’t need a vacation from vacation straight away. 😅 ⌘ Read more

** Evidently I’ve become a guy what that makes camera apps? **
I really like the unpredictable depth of field and color handling of single-use cameras. The day before we left for a little vacation to down east Maine I wrote another weird little camera app, lut cam. Lut cam attempts to simulate some of the aspects of a single-use camera by allowing you to apply color profiles to the raw image produced by a devic … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » 4 week vacation time is done tomorrow, then it's back to work. A bit excited to see what happens there for the rest of the year, a bit stressfull too, but It'll be nice to get back to work. This summer vacation has been super nice, and also felt like it lasted long. Been a super time with my family, we got to visit a lot of cool places, and went on a lot of trips etc. Been really nice. And we've already planned what to do next year - so I already look forward to that :)

@prologic@twtxt.net During summer - yes, since our kids have 2 months. First month of their vacation I still work, then I join them on their last month. We do have 5 weeks, so I save the last week for around Christmas. :)

Post-vacation bike tour

What a week!
What a week! This week I was on vacation, but I didn’t relax at all. I worked harder than on workdays. Since my mother and I finally emptied all the furniture from the apartment I grew up in and moved out of two years ago (I even moved again after it). ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » Getting stuff done today.. Bought more fencing, so that the dog can stay outside on the terrace without jumping over to our neighbor, so I'll get that up soon. He has usually been in the garden, but that has been dug into a mudhole by the dog, so when it's rainy\wet etc he can now stay on the terrace. Other then that I'll probably do some coding on my multiplayer game today, since our kids are busy with friends etc.

@prologic@twtxt.net Nice! That sounds great :) Kids have vacation next week - but I do not, so we’ll do stuff after work at least, bowling and other things. :)

Catching COVID-19
So far, I had been spared from COVID-19. “Had,” focusing on the past, because now it has affected me, or us, after all. We had to cut short our vacation, which I used to share little glimpses of here on the blog. We quickly went back home, wearing masks the whole time and hoping not to infect more people. ⌘ Read more

The world’s fastest train
I like trains, if that should not have been known yet. This year I even have two major vacations (Romania and Scotland) coming up, both by train, even if flying would be possible. But if it can be done by train, then I also prefer the train. ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » The GTK gui client is coming along nicely. Added avatar support, and reply button. It's pretty obvious that the GUI does not scale properly yet, but I'll worry about that once the last feature is added. Now I'm only missing the 'post status' gui, I need to think a bit about how I want that implemented. Anyways - here's the latest screenshot..

@chunkimo@twtxt.net thank you! Very pleased with it. I finally have vacation, got up early, took our dog for a long walk this morning, so now I can code a bit. I’ll complete the status entry gui today, so that I can post statuses, after that I need to add a tomer for refreshing timeline, and then some way to store some settings.

This time I’m doing my commute (to my second flat) with this new 70L travel backpack from Decathlon. It’s already full with just my work stuff (notebook, keyboard, mouse) and some other stuff (personal notebook, smaller backpack, toiletries, 2L water bottle). How am I supposed to fit 14 days of vacation stuff in there? 🤔 Good that I can take a vacation without having to take the work stuff with me. 😅 ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » Good morning to you all! Wish you a great day!

@prologic@twtxt.net Ah man, that sounds nice! I do not drink - except that I have one cider during the summer vacation. (Always look forward to that one).
Other then that I love energy drinks, not that they help in any way - just tastes good :)
I’m on my way to the office now shortly, ready for a new day with realtime 3D and coding.

Kids are in bed, dog is sleeping, Marlyn is watching Tv, and I’m on the computer trying to figure out what to do for the rest of the night. Last week of vacation now, so I get more and more interrested in doing things on the computer. Played around a bit with my Risc-v SBC today (Mangopi), it runs debian, got everything updated and all that, thinking about setting up a webserver on it. It has 512mb ram, so it should be fine to host some static website on it.

To kick off my few days of Easter vacation, I took my freshly inspected and repaired pedelec (e-bike) with beautiful weather (20 degrees and sun) and drove a round on the “Ringgleis”, a bike path around my city. The total mileage has now also finally reached the 3000 km. That’s still not much over several years, but I still have my second, non-electric bike, with which I probably ride a lot more. ⌘ Read more
