PostgreSQL major version upgrades in Docker containers are a pain in the ass. How is it that MariaDB handles this much more smoothly?  #postgresql #admin

Had to leave #btconf a bit earlier because of, well, life happening.

Thanks to @marcthiele for making @btconf this gem that it is and looking forward to meeting all these lovely people I've met in the last days again soon. I'm full of inspirations and ideas right now that I have to process first, somehow.

This cake is not a lie. Yummy! #btconf

Hallo and good morning @btconf - excited for the next two days. #btconf

IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf took place on April, 25th and 26th 2026. Thanks to Daniel Pietzsch for creating a feed list for the event.

Ready for #indiewebcamp Day 2 at Sia Consulting in Düsseldorf with @tilmn, @jkphl, @tantek.com and many other lovely folks. #indieweb

As nobody seems to need drives A:  and B: on Windows anymore (or are there any floppy disk users still out there), I thought it would be a nice idea to mount the backup drive from my NAS to B: (as in 'backup').

Seems the devs of bun, the JavaScript runtime (https://bun.com), also don't use floppy disks and use B: for their virtual file system.

So, better leave drives A: and B: alone when using Windows.

Fixed Webmentions display and rendering on my website. I even added cute little overlay icons to differentiate the different types of webmentions.

And, well, I reconfigured my Docker infrastructure to properly support IPv6 on the way.  Don't ask why, but this works as well now. ;)

@maxhaesslein Gestern noch im Kalender gesehen, prompt aber wieder vergessen zu schreiben. Alles Gute nachträglich zum Geburstag! 🥂

While trying to migrate some self-hosted apps to a new empty VPS yesterday, I noticed an unusually high load, issues during upgrade (initramfs scripts broke one by one because of missing libs) and a lot of network traffic with no actual services running. I set up the server ...

A blast from the past. Love listening to Ray Cokes' voice and his music selection. Takes me back to the good old #MTV days.

@jkphl Moin und ein gutes neues Jahr noch! Ich wollte Dich vorwarnen, dass ich meinen Spotify-Account zum 15.1. gekündigt habe, da ich mit dem ganzen Content, den sie neben Musik und Hörbüchern in die App kippen nicht mehr zufrieden bin. Dein Account, der an meinem Family-Abo hängt, wird also am 15.1. auf das Free-Level runterfallen.
Ich schaue gerade nach Alternativen. Wenn da wieder ein Platz im Family-Abo frei ist denke ich an Dich. :)

On the train on my way home from @btconf Berlin 2025. I took the time to write a quick review and now I'll tackle some of these ideas I had in the last two days. ⌨️

!A Trabant car on a graffiti image at the East Side Gallery in Berlin This was my third time at Beyond Tellerrand after Munich in 2018 and Düsseldorf in 2024, and once again it was an awesome experience (although this time there sadly was no Stefan Sagmeister on stage). :) I...

Leaving @btconf once again with a lot of new input after 2 days of nice interactions with really lovely people. After attending the events in Munich and Düsseldorf I could now cross off Berlin from my bucket list. Thanks to @marcthiele , the speakers and the crew for a really great time and see you all in Düsseldorf in 2026.

Good morning @btconf 🫶 #btconf

On my way to #btconf Berlin! 🚄

Immer wenn Du denkst "Schlimmer kann die User Experience jetzt wirklich nicht werden" findet Ticketmaster einen Weg, es doch noch schlimmer zu machen.

@jkphl Alles Gute zum Geburstag, Joschi! 🎂

@tilmn Kannst Du Dir bei Gelegenheit mal https://digital-garden-git-feature-theme-toggle-innovention.vercel.app/ anschauen? Sollte jetzt funktionieren mit System-Theme als Default, so wie Du Dir das gestern vorgestellt hast. Finde die Idee gut.

I really enjoy the time when all the software on my servers - the OS, the Tailscale client, Docker, all the self-hosted stuff I'm running - is up to date. What a bliss, those 30 seconds.

Wie soll ich denn mit diesem wackeligen Netz das coole Digital-Nomad-Vibe-Coder-Leben führen? Das geht so nicht.

Hello Homebrew Website Club! ✌️

Auch mal schön wenn die Sitzplatzreservierung im ICE in dem Zugteil ist, der fährt. Sonst hatte ich immer das Glück in dem Teil zu reservieren, der weggefallen ist. Die kleinen Freuden des Alltags.

It's not over till it's over. HC Erlangen with an awesome finish in the last 5 minutes of the game. 💪

Some (social media) sites render link previews if you paste an URL when creating content. If you don't add the proper tags to your website, most parsers try create some on the fly and fail horribly. So, why not configure your website accordingly in the first place? The key t...
