Instead of using Instagram, I prefer uploading pictures to my blog. Everyone can view them there without creating an account and visitors don’t get any ads or are tracked.

First impressions with the soundcore AeroFit 2 open-ear headphones

Published on in ✍️ Posts

While I skipped the Black Friday deals, I couldn’t resist picking up the soundcore AeroFit 2 headphones a few days later. Being home alone over the weekend gave me the perfect opportunity to spend more than 24 hours testing them thoroughly. Here are my first impressions of these open-ear headphones.

Has someone a) found a bug or security hole in GoBlog or b) actually sent well over 5 million requests to my site to like my post about how to export GPX files automatically from Komoot? 🤔

Even though it’s a bit cold and muddy outside, today, while we’re still living in Kassel, we took the opportunity to take another look at the city from above. This time from the Bismarck Tower.

It’s now about two years since I got my new laptop and replaced my Surface Go and my desktop computer with it to be more flexible when commuting. Here’s a small recap on why I’m so happy about my companion.

Hiking in the Alps?

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

As my girlfriend finally finished her last exams last week, and now we have time for enjoyable activities again, we used yesterday to do another hike in the surrounding area.

My first passkeys implementation 🔑

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Something I wanted to implement already for a long time, but always seemed too complicated for the occasional programming session here or there, was support for WebAuthn or Passkeys for GoBlog. I noted it down two years ago and also already started to work on the implementation, but never got around to finish it.

A weekend with my family

This past weekend, I visited my family in the south of Germany. I wasn’t there for quite some time. On one day, we went to Biel in Switzerland, walking through the Taubenloch (“pigeonhole”, a canyon right next to the city) and sitting on a boat that took us across Lake Biel. It was quite picturesque.
