Welcome to the Thoughts section of my blog. Thoughts are better kept on my blog than on Twitter or other online platforms.


Switching to Bunny DNS

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

A recent post by Henrique made me look into Bunny DNS again. In the past I already tried it for one or two domains but eventually stopped using it because they didn’t support DNSSEC yet. Instead I relied on the wonderful services of DeSEC. But now that support for DNSSEC and TLSA records is finally here, I switched again to Bunny DNS with all 21 of my domains.

Bye Gitea, hey Forgejo!

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

I procrastinated a long time, but I finally migrated my self-hosted Git instance from Gitea to Forgejo. I still don’t know how to pronounce it, but it’s maintained by Codeberg e.V., where I’m also a member.

Free AI coding credits

Updated on

While you can spend endless money on AI coding tools, I’m known for being a money-saver (I even secured the sparzauberer.de domain, which is translatable to savings wizard).

The gym is already at home

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

My new piece of fitness equipment is finally here. In all its glory, standing there to remind me every day to get a workout in. Now I don’t even have to go to the gym, because the gym is already at home.

Trying GitHub Copilot coding agent

Published on in 💭 Thoughts
Updated on

Somehow1 I got access to GitHub Education again, which includes access to GitHub Copilot Pro. While I was using Kilo Code with OpenRouter in the recent past, I wanted to try Copilot again since it doesn’t cost anything extra for me.

The final ride of the year?

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Today I did another bike tour, following several I’ve taken recently. I didn’t blog about those, although they were quite nice and I truly enjoyed them, now more appropriately dressed.1

TIL on my bike

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Today, with the weather at a nice 19 °C, I took the chance for another bike tour. I had tried out my new, warmer cycling clothes yesterday during a long break from work, but since the weather will be much colder soon, I really wanted to get this second ride in.

Vacation in the Rhön

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Yesterday, we came back from some much-needed vacation. We spent 9 nights in Fulda, went hiking a few times, visited some museums, and sometimes also just relaxed. On the way to Fulda, we also made a short break in Kassel and revived some memories.
