Tech, life and everything else
Welcome to the Thoughts section of my blog. Thoughts are better kept on my blog than on Twitter or other online platforms.
I re-enabled my old trusty 2013-manufactured Lenovo ThinkPad S1 Yoga which I used during my studies. I had Ubuntu 24.04 installed on it for some time but never really used it. But now, I upgraded it to the latest development build of Ubuntu 26.04 to check the current state of Ubuntu and Linux on the desktop. And to check if I really switch to it as my main operating system.

After migrating to Nextcloud, I’ve been thinking about switching back to Linux as my daily driver operating system. I used Linux for years before eventually returning to Windows.
Using AI, I just added a new (experimental) plugin to GoBlog, one that finally leverages app passwords, now that I’ve overhauled the authentication system some time ago. The plugin implements MCP, short for Model Context Protocol.
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.
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.
I just have to tell you my current state with my migration to OpenCloud…
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).
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.

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.
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
