I am a software developer and tinkerer based in Melbourne, Australia. Check out my CV
I want to get back into using my Friendica account. It has serious potential being able to interface with ActivityPub/Mastodon, Bluesky and RSS.
But is it jack of all trades, master of none?
I can't even connect to the social.lol server properly...
Sometimes it's hard to concentrate
Man, I forgot how good Street Pass Plaza on the 3DS is!
I'm playing with my website again. Specifically getting it to fetch profile and /now page content directly from omg.lol, so I just have to update that information in one place.
I wish there was a webhook on updating either of those pages I could use to trigger a re-build, though.
So, I just "finished" The Stormlight Archive... Should I jump straight into Mistborn, or take a break from the Cosmere and do that Animorphs re-read I've been wanting to domfor a while now?
So, I got a job and am heading into an office multiple days per week again.
I think I need the structure, really.
I busted out my Mixels to give my Israfel Keyboards some teeth, little wings, and a single glow-in-the-dark eyeball.
Not a heavy customisation by any means, just a little bit of fun for the season 🎃
I miss the physical buttons phones used to have...
Whatever happened to cola flavoured cordial?
In theory, kids are supposed so grow out of sleeping in their parents' bed.
I'm still waiting...
Feeling mostly better. My eyes are still a little leaky, and I still have a backlog of mucus to clear out, but mostly better.
My eyes are all gross now...
I've just realised my freiendica instance isn't actually sending my posts, and I don't know how to debug it...
HTMX + Mustache with a service worker fetching external data and rendering HTML from a template. Fun? Practical? You decide!
Being sick is not fun...
Why is charging my devices always so damned inconsistent?
Hey, @[email protected] I know you're busy and everything, but I just had an idea: Webhooks for /now and profile pages (so I can push the changes to my personal static website, or set up my own nudges, or whatever)
So, I've re-jiggered my website *again*, and moved away from Ghost, back to 11ty, with a Friendica instance along for the ride...
I'm considering how to add some of the more social elements of omg.lol to the app... For example, IRC.
Surely users will be better served by the chat.omg.lol PWA, so there's little point building anything in, right?
Why can't apps just be. Why should I have to submit an update to the app store if it still works fine?
