August 2025

A man is sitting at a table inside a room, wearing a black T-shirt with a colorful design. There is a card balanced on his head. On the wall behind him, there's a painting. The text "45² = 2025" is displayed next to him, and the subtiles read: 2025. It's a square number year. And I will turn the exact square root of 2025 I Will turn, 45.

I’m a bit jealous about this nice numbers he has. On the other hand I’m glad Im not yet 45. Source of the screenshot: Youtube.

 

It was nice to reconnect with friend yesterday evening. We haven’t seen us since last year.

 

Looks like today is the day to update my work computer to macOS Sequoia.

 

On Friday I nerd sniped my self while working. Our generated pdf for the output now has layers and a table of contents which navigates to the correct area on the page. Did we need this? No. Was it cool to implement? Yes!

⤑ 360 VR Tour Of Sandland Tunnel System.

A cool channel and a cool use of the 360 degree video feature. I think it needs to be watched in the YouTube app to work.

It gets a bit tiring after a while to point it in the right direction but at least it got my workout now :-)

It looks like the release at work is a GO!

 

@V_ I don’t know what you’re talking about, but it sure sounds like good news, congratulations! ????

@V_ All the best for the release.

@ArnoldHoogerwerf we made the feature I worked on since last November accessible for the public.

@V_ ????

@lmika it went fine so far. Although the marketing push was not yet done.

A pixel art mosaic of a stork carrying a bundle adorns a wall. The stork is composed of small colored tiles, with a black and white body and a red beak. The bundle it carries is depicted in green and red tiles. The wall itself is textured and light brown in color.

Stork, another street name mosaic from Colmar. Don’t know the street name of this one anymore.

 

I may have just ordered a second one now :-).

INTRODUCING TRMNL X Your favorite e-ink companion just got an upgrade.

I like the new feature compared to the original one.

@torb thanks for the heads-up. Why does this timeline need to be like this :-(. Looking at the Twitter profile I’m not sure how much this is provocation or not but the Avatar image is pretty damning. And it could be that the algorithm does only show’s me the pc post of him. So it looks like it is not provocation and it’s actually him letting down the his mask. Do you have any further insight?

@V_ @torb This sure is a tempting device (I’d never heard of it before), but it’s definitely a no-go, judging by the backlash building up online.

🍿 Flightplan (2005)

Flying at 40,000 feet in a state-of-the art aircraft that she helped design, Kyle Pratt's 6-year-old daughter Julia vanishes without a trace. Or did she? No one on the plane believes Julia was ever onboard. And now Kyle, desperate and alone, can only count on her own wits to unravel the mystery and save her daughter.

⤑ TMDB.

Strange movie.

Just found this series of an Obsidian developer critiquing plugins. I like his style and gives good insight into how to develop plugins.

@V_ Ooh, this does look interesting. Thanks for sharing. Will check it out.

@lmika The plugin shown in the first one is also interesting, its an alternative to the Daily plugin which has some more logic in it. I was actually thinking about writing a script which does part of this. But so far I have not yet tested it out.
