Quick note on my IntelliJ IDEA packages: Due to JetBrains unifying the Community and Ultimate editions into one product the automatic updating of my packages currently doesn't work and 2025.3 is not available via my PPA. I'm aware of that, but I'm currently lacking the time to adjust the packages and the building process. I hope to provide up-to-date packages by mid January at the latest.
Just upgraded to Debian 13. Went as smooth as always :)

Just published a new blog post about label and boxes for individuals: Breaking out of the box
Finally took the time to finish my new bookmarks page that I started working on a few months ago. There's still much more to add, but it's a first step.
The effort for the Kirby major version upgrade was the same as for a minor version. Classic case of putting something off because of being afraid that it will be time-consuming and in the end it's not.
The website is now migrated to Kirby 5! The upgrade was completely effortlessly; I only needed to adjust the composer dependencies.
Just read on of the best blog posts I came across in a long time. Ava doesn't just write about blogging, tools, and software. It's about everything, it's about life.
Recently I have this crazy idea of using Emacs (more specifically: dired) as a digital asset manager for my photography. Send help!
I'm playing around with Linux Mint a bit at the moment. Certainly a great experience!
Mozillas recent Firefox TOS announcement is the final straw for me. After giving them the benefit of the doubt many times in the past I switched to LibreWolf now.
Now also posting from mobile using iOS shortcuts. 🥳
Now also with a rudimentary Emacs integraton. 🎉
