On Posting Images to Pixelfed from Micro.blog
My brief testing of posting images to Pixelfed from Micro.blog is positive (image1, image2). My blog visual theme (Tiny Cards) supports image posts without being too fancy. The only thing is the lack of image collection selection when posting from Micro.blog. This has to be done after posting. Might come later, if we call @manton attention! Posting from Micro.blog app is similar to Pixelfed app. The nice thing is that Micro. Continue reading →

A somewhat old photo of me in front of a coffee shop somewhere in Brazil. I’m also testing cross-posting to Pixelfed.

I’m Getting Old Apparently
I old enough to be one of those who witnessed the birth of MTV and music videos… but I rarely watch those these days… but today, I decided to spend some time watching what’s « hot ». A few observations are in order: video duration is short (less than 3 min), hyper-short scenes abuse (less than two seconds in duration), 4:3 screen ratio is strange (is this a thing now?)… I barely can stand this shit now.

The cool thing about our new (and temporary) apartment is that, both my wife and me, have the feeling of being traveling somewhere in the world1. We stay right beside a beautiful park with a lot of mature trees. I already see myself going out to do some photography. Too bad it’s winter time, though. 🤷🏻♂️
We often travel to places, rent an Airbnb for a week, so that we can feel being part of a small community. It’s really a nice feeling making the whole thing more bearable.

We are 1km from our house! ↩︎

Where The Social Web Fails
Dislike buttons on YouTube, or elsewhere for that matter, should come with a mandatory “here’s why I don’t like this” explanation text field. In this specific case, 2 people out of 18 didn’t like my video. Why? How can I improve myself if you don’t tell me what’s wrong? This is the part of social web that I feel doesn’t work.

And we’re finally settled in our temporary apartment. Now, it’s time to explore the surroundings, including marking coffee shops and restaurants that I plan to try over the course of the next three months. I started using Apple Maps Guides for this. Not super intuitive but it does the job. I shared the guide with my wife.

This article from 9to5Mac is a reminder that Apple Intelligence is not free.
as more Apple Intelligence features continue arriving, on-device storage is going to become more in-demand than ever before.
That’s why I went with the 512GB storage tier for my iPhone 15 Pro Max and 11-inch iPad Pro last year. Consider doing the same for your next upgrade.

My cellular service provider offers me, via their iPhone app, to convert from a physical SIM to an eSIM. Traveling abroad a few times a year and as a big fan of Airalo, I wonder if I should go all in with eSIM… thoughts?

Thought and sentiment of the moment: my sheer physical exhaustion makes my mental exhaustion more bearable.

How many people signed up for micro.one are coming from micro.blog? And why? Me by curiosity but I don’t want to take the place of someone else who is entirely new to micro.blog. Dilemma.

I’m moving to a new (temporary) apartment in two days. It’s the first time in 17 years that I’m changing places. It’s crazy how much we gather over the years. We’re giving out a lot of stuff (also selling on FB Marketplace). It’s like spring-cleaning, right in the middle of winter!

I started looking at possibly getting a mechanical keyboard, just for fun. I do love Apple Magic keyboards, but I also have fond memories of very old mechanical keyboards like the clicky IBM AT keyboard. There are so many design variables that make each keyboard unique that I just don’t know how I’m going to select one without actually visiting a physical store to try them all!

Hello 2025! 🎉 Happy new year folks! So this is it, that was my very first post of 2025.

I have twice as many followers on Bluesky than on Mastodon. Don’t know how many followers on Micro.blog… because… Micro.blog. 🙃

Any Final Cut Pro users here? What advice would you give to someone who knows about Screenflow for recording his YouTube videos but is looking for something more powerful… mostly doing screen recording with my face as a médaillon…

I love this panel that Ghost presents after hitting “Publish and share”. That was the last edition for 2024.

Finished watching this video about a Macintosh IIfx computer full restore to working condition. This brings so many memories and contains some really cool tech stuff like this SCSI card emulator. Wow! I would love to see this in action in person.
