Proudly ruining the web since 2013.
TIL (thanks to @wimpy) that it costs ~£475 per year to publish and sign an app in the Apple store. No wonder every app in the app store costs a few $/month.
It's almost developer hostile. Let the devs keep the money they have earned, you money grabbing bastards.
David talks about why it's good to reach out to authors when you read their content. Even if it's just to say hi.
Wife was away on a farming course today, so it was just me and the boys. The entire day was spent outside with the animals, playing and doing jobs.
We got McD's for tea and now I feel sick. The Biscoff McFlurry was a step too far.
Great day though.
GitHub has now been officially replaced with Codeberg.
I was recently invited to try the Thundermail beta program ahead of their general release. Here's my initial thoughts.
Had fibre to the premises (FTTP) installed this morning - big upgrade in speed, both up and down, and my provider kept my static IP in place. Very happy.
Just need to see how quick it gets to over the next few days now.
Filled up my wife's car with diesel just now. £107 for 56 litres!! It's usually around £65-70 to fill up.
By comparison, my EV costs around £12 to "fill up" with electricity. I think we need to consider getting my wife an EV too!
(Sorry, Americans, I can't be bothered converting to freedom units)
I've been thinking about leaving GitHub, and here's my plan.
Some thoughts about my fear of flying and why it makes me uneasy.
Seriously considering a switch from #GitHub to #Codeberg after reading the post below, but I'm not sure I have the energy for it.
David talks about his reluctance to share details about his blog with a colleague, and asks whether other people with blogs tell their friends and family.
Absolutely superb book. I couldn't put this one down - gripping from the very start with a story that fill of twists and turns. Loved it!
Ubuntu resets a custom icon pack back to Yaru whenever switching between light/dark modes. Here's how to fix it.
OK, the Framework saga is finally over...kinda.
Why is everything proprietary these days? Let me tell you a little story...
Every time i walk up the stairs I see my poor little #Framework, sat there in pieces waiting for its new board. 😟
I've had the T480 for a couple of days now, so wanted to jot down a few initial thoughts.
There's something about writing with a fountain pen that's just really nice. Even when it's a cheap Lamy - still far nicer than a ballpoint. Make me want to write.
Here's an update on how things have gone with my Framework 13.
Ah gutted. I bought a #Framework Ryzen 7 AI 350 series a few days ago for £699, only for them to now be discounted to £599. Great timing, Kev! 🤦🏼♂️️
