Ok, one more time testing WebSub.
Websites and blogs of people that attended a Homebrew Website Club Düsseldorf.
This is another test post for WebSub notifications.
It’s create day at IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf, and I’m trying to make WebSub updates work for my site (and this is an update).

Quite a few exciting days lie ahead of me:
- There’s the IndieWebCamp on the weekend.
- There’s Beyond Tellerrand on Monday and Tuesday.
- And I’m going to launch the product I’ve been working on alongside those event.

Last Sunday, I’ve been on another photo trip with Florian. We had a great time in fantastic weather at the Tetraeder in Bottrop. He took some fabulous photos:
Photo Blog Archive, Yea or Nay?
An archive page for my photo blog was never anything I wanted to do, simply because I don’t want people to look at tiny images and quickly scroll by à la Instagram. (I've written about it and it still stands.)
On the other hand, I understand that it can be tricky to get into...

We recently bought a (used) car online. Just got their newsletter suggesting more cars like the one we got. I don’t know… How many cars do people usually buy in a month? 🤔
I made a thing using CSS to display a four-image slideshow at the top of the Forkalyst homepage. I was (and still am) experimenting with positioning, gradients and animation. It took me longer than I thought it would and I’m still not 100% happy. But I reckon it’s good enough for now.
🎬 The Substance
This might be the most disgusting film I've ever seen. And it's not "just" all the guts and gore; it's all the food stuff, too. And all those close-up and wide-angle shots really emphasise it all. It's quite remarkable how this movie made me feel. And those makeup and "costumes": so good! I really wonder how this got so mainstream. Anyway, it's really a courageous piece, directing- and acting-wise. And it's funny, too. It's so over the top, it could not not be funny. The society criticism is not subtle at all, and I found this rather fitting. Writing all this, I kind of want to watch another round. But I'm not quite sure, if I'm courageous enough.
March 2025
This is a bit late, but I haven’t gotten around to anything other than family time and work in the last couple of weeks. Blogging – or sharing much of anything in general – does not come naturally to me and is one of the first things that immediately takes a backseat when mo...
Photography-wise I’ve been fairly unmotivated recently: no posting, no development, no scanning and only taking few photos. But today was finally a good day again: I spent the whole day outside in the sun with the family and friends while shooting two rolls of Foma 100 with my Lomo LC-A.

The lack of updates on this here website is directly proportional to the amount of family obligations and my work work load. I barely managed to post images in the last couple of days. I hope I’ll at least be able to finish the March review post soon. 🤞
A (command line) utility I’ve been using a lot lately is GitUI. It makes all my day-to-day git-related work easy and enjoyable.
