Investing in comfort

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Getting ready for Scotland involved buying some gear – next to the required things also a headlamp, a powerbank and Merino clothes. On the surface, maybe a bit much. Did I need a new powerbank? Technically no, but the right size makes a difference for tracking, navigating, and tent-charging on a trip like this. Merino? It means less sweat, less odor, more comfort over days of exploring.

I have already written about my blogroll several times. After I automated it with Hugo and was also able to implement the automatic creation with GoBlog, I have now significantly improved the integration in GoBlog. Blogroll support is now directly in the application, hopefully supports other services besides Miniflux and there is an OPML download now. Blogrolls rock!

Documenting my stupidity

Published on in 💬 Micro

Something stupid happened to me yesterday. On my post with the cake photo I got a few responses and comments that I wanted to look at. But on the smartphone display, I seem to have slightly mis-clicked and accidentally pressed “Delete”. That’s a button that only shows up when I’m logged in.

The post was then deleted and I had to use the hourly database dump to find the entry again and add it back into the database by hand.

To counteract this in the future, I have now created a second deletion step. Now the deletion must be confirmed a second time.

I also now use the European cloud provider Scaleway to store the Docker image (instead of Quay.io). I already use Scaleway for object storage for my backups, unfortunately Hetzner does not offer such features yet.
