After about 10 hours working through the tutorial it felt like I’m getting hang of #blender.

I’m slow. I have to redo things multiple times. But I’m getting there.

Right now it felt like the first time I was about to crash out. Extrude, cut, and random edges appeared. For no good reason […]

Blizzard releasing a DLC for Diablo 2… guess we don’t have phones and Diablo 4 multiplayer is going great.

I am contributing to this revenue number and I do not regret a single cent.

Sure I’d love if it wouldn’t go to Google. But content creators actually get a payout, I have basically infinite access to entertainment and learning material and I don’t see ads I cannot skip […]

I am not sure how I feel about the advertisement of Creator Studio in Pages. I think the offering is *really* good, but that doesn’t change the fact that there is an ad in my app.

I didn’t expect Books to be the app that annoys me the most on macOS. Beside reading tracking being broken and the sync feature doing whatever it just feels like doing it,… Books now started to just remove all content for 10 seconds flashing me a white screen. And it’s doing it on a regular basis.

I'm starting a new article series about building a personal AI and some random pieces of infrastructure no one should ever build.

Time to stretch my legs in Unity and some 3D sculpting :D

Last game of the regular split. I honestly hope that G2 doesn’t make playoffs for the first time. I am saying this as a G2 fan since the first hour. The arrogance and hubris finally needs to cost them something, maybe they’ll finally wake up before throwing another worlds away. #leagueoflegends

Customer of mine was stuck implementing an SPS to work with a little control unit.

The vendor couldn’t explain why a valid package isn’t accepted.

4 hours with this stupid thing and it turns out just because the vendor defined a end sequence for the package doesn’t mean they use it. No. They […]

If I learned one thing from Rider it’s that every other line of my code is “expensive” and therefore bad. It has to be bad, because it’s underlined red. Guess I just stop checking if things are null. (I *really* have to read up on C#…)

The more I work with Unity and get an idea what I want to build the more certain I am that @Airmed needs to learn Blender and Daz3D :D

I don't know when I've last written C#, but here we are, thanks Unity :)

In no particular order:
- { will *not* be on a new line Rider, no matter how often you try!
- Unity handling Euler angles under the hood is *so* much nicer that what I had to do with ObjectiveC iOS a long time ago.
- I […]

We aren't using our HomePods in any way but setting a timer three times a year when we don't have a phone, iPad or watch close by.

So I'm doing the only thing I can think of and test them as stereo speakers paired with the AppleTV in my office.

Right now I'm using the smallest possible Teufel […]

I am a Marvel Unlimited subscriber and I’m considering to torrent a few series just so I don’t have to read them in the complete unusable iOS app.

#highguard is the Microsoft Copilot of games. It’s our fault that no one likes the project. Not that the product is bad, no, it’s the gamers.

Sometimes I love how short we can keep conversation in some chat groups.

“There’s a vulnerability in your published code, you have a secret key hardcoded. I cannot open an issue because the code isn’t on GitHub. Can I still apply for a bug bounty.”

At this point I just don’t know anymore.

The code in question, in a repository called blog with a project called demo […]

My dad needs a Windows system and I wanted to install 11 on my Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen9.

Windows installer drops me in a “find driver” screen without telling me what’s missing.

Windows was pre-installed on this machine and I re-installed it before. So something with the recent Windows iso […]
