What defines us as human?
In the past: Awareness and self-reflection, empathy, morals and ethics, language, culture, creativity and innovation.
Today: Selecting all images with traffic lights.

The Fast & Furious movie series is a mystery. From movie to movie it gets more unrealistic and over the top. But I still love the movies. And besides all the action, there are always emotional moments that completely pick me up.
Two days ago I watched the 10th part and my favorite actor Jason Momoa delivered. I’ve rarely seen such a frightening and funny performance.
Spoiler: Plot of Fast X
However, the fact that the fantastic Gal Gadot reappeared in her role, even though we saw her die, seems a bit ridiculous to me.
Just like the nasty cliffhanger at the end.
Can’t wait for the movie to finally be released on the major platforms so I can binge watch the entire series again.
I miss Paul Walker.

I don’t even understand why, but finally K-POP got me.

I am finally able to post to my website via IndiePass and Micropub. That makes me very happy 🙂

Can AI generated images make you sick? Like seasickness or dizziness at high altitude? And I don’t mean that I think the whole topic sucks, what I do.
I mean a really unpleasant feeling in the stomach when looking at the images. A bit like motion sickness when wearing VR glasses.AI Sickness?

The project I’m working on right now has forced me to dig deep into CSS Grid.
I love it so much! 🙂

Is this the correct way to answer someone on mastodon?

Okay, this is a new test. This time it’s about the functionality of ActivityPub.
Let’s see how that goes…

I’m not familiar with the American school system, do you actually learn to paint with Watercolor in Middle School as well? We had that as a subject in fine arts, unfortunately I didn’t appreciate it enough.
I’m very excited to see what you learn and make of it 🙂 Hope you share with us.

I can hardly believe it, after two years I finally managed to work through all my tweets and sort them out properly. All tweets that remained, I have taken over to my website following PESOS.
There were really so many posts whose context I no longer understood myself. How should it expect it from others?
Of course, I have gained a few insights that I would like to share with you here. They are valid for Twitter, but also for all other social networks and my own website.
- No one cares if I’m tired, going to or coming from work, if I’m running late, what’s going on on the Autobahn, or how much I’m longing for the weekend to arrive
- I don’t have to keep a record of when I go to the gym or where I just ordered food.
- When commenting on moments or current events of the day, it’s a good idea to touch on the overall situation a bit, since it’s impossible to understand what it’s about in retrospect
- The same goes for situational comedy, insider or short comments on a hashtag for a quick like
- Likes are absolutely irrelevant
- Dialect or regionally related sayings / jokes can be avoided, no one understands them anyway
- Automated posts that I shared or posted something on another network are annoying!
- Weather?! If it’s not a natural disaster that I’m watching, then I’ll keep it to myself
- I no longer rely on 3rd party services where my content is stored (IndieWeb, Own Your Data!!)
- If I want to exchange ideas about trash TV, I should get an extra account…
Maybe there won’t be so many things left to post. But that’s also a good situation. Either content with substance or leave it out.

In Germany, we say “Hoch die Hände, Wochenende!”.
It’s been a tough week, resuming work, leftover symptoms of COVID…. #TGIF

I need to thank AI and especially tools like Midjourney, it makes it easier for me to overcome my Pinterest addiction with all those ugly dystopian images.

Three years after the global outbreak of the pandemic, it has finally hit me now.
I’m pissed off at my government. I was as careful as possible, but for everyone else freedom is more important than protection.

You’ve played a part in making the world a better place. Thanks for everything.
Rest in peace Nichelle Nichols, you’ll be missed!

My daughter, in her “senior year” of kindergarten, has a huge crush on a boy in her group.
I figured that wouldn’t be a problem since that’s still the age that boys say “ewww, a girl”.Well, my wife just wrote that he thinks it’s great.

Staying up to date with theme dev for WordPress is not easy, especially with the big changes that are happening at the moment. Luckily there are sites like fullsiteediting.com; there are so many understandable explanations.
This post is a huge thank you to Carolina Nymark 🙂 -
I think I’m becoming a musical fan. Back then my first one “The Lion King” was awesome, tonight “Frozen” was great too. I want more of it 🙂

Sorry 🙂 To be honest, this was a fallback solution since I can’t send you Twitter DM’s.

It looks like someone is following my current page.
Since I’ve been working on the follow-up page since the pandemic, there’s actually no activity here anymore. – This reply is from the new site 😉

In the middle of the Star Wars flight simulator, my daughter asks with an anxious voice “Mom, are we really in space?”

I finally saw Denis Villeneuve’s epic masterpiece Dune in theaters today.
Besides the great storytelling, the breathtaking images, and the great acting performance, the movie score definitely has to be praised. -
Farewell Sigrid Schlüter
On September 02, 2021, my wife lost her mother and my children lost their grandma.
Today was the funeral, I hope I can give my family the support they need.
I am grateful that I was accepted as a son-in-law by this great woman and will remember gladly the beautiful moments we spent together.

Great respect for the Frankenthal State Vaccination Center. As competent, organized and fast as one is carried out there, first class. I haven’t experienced this level of professionalism in a long time.
And by the way, it looks pretty too 🙂

Finally!
A pair of appointments, that is 1st and 2nd vaccination appointment together, has been reserved for you:
Vaccination date 1: 05/27 2021 04:30 p.m.
Vaccination date 2: 07/03 2021 11:15 a.m. -

Reviewing my tweets and optionally syndicating them to my website is really hard. There are so many tweets, especially in the first years I wrote several times almost every day. When I transfer a post, I also do it in German and English. So I apply the following rules:
- Tweets about waking up or going to bed will be ignored
- Tweets about starting work, taking a lunch break, or getting off work will be ignored
- Stories from work that have lost their relevance will be ignored
- Tweets with broken links will be ignored
- Posts referencing any events that are no longer relatable will also be ignored
- Jokes that I don’t understand myself anymore will be ignored
- Tweets about new posts on fb, tumblr, instagram or any other network will be ignored
- Any tweets that I do not transfer to my website will be deleted on Twitter
-
I’m manually reviewing each of my tweets right now (doing PESOS). In 2008, I tweeted almost every day that I was arriving at work, having lunch, getting off work, being tired, or all of them combined.
I hate myself 🙂

I finished reclaiming my Instagram posts tonight. That was quite a lot of work to manually post each post 2 times (2 languages) here. But now I feel better 🙂

Looking at the local FB groups and personal conversations, I think I’m the only one in my village of 10k people who think it sucks to take my son back to school tomorrow. COVID is still around!
Everyone else is like, “Yeah, kids out, finally!”
They don’t even fucking care about education, they care about having a vacation from their kids. WTF?!
-
No school, kindergarten, meetings, parties, no restaurant visits, no tattoo parlors, hairdressers, hardware stores, etc., no cinemas, no concerts…. I carry all this with a heavy heart.
But to be locked up every evening from 21:00, I can’t stand it any longer!And I don’t even plan to go out… But the fact that I am not allowed to do so is killing me. I have not been convicted of any crime, so I don’t deserve to be behind bars! If I went out, I still couldn’t do anything else, so what’s the point?
-
Okay, vaccinations. If I understand correctly (which is not that simple), the eldest are vaccinated first. Then the slightly less old. And in the third wave, first the nursing staff, teachers, cashiers, etc.
This seems to me to be completely the wrong way around!
-
My 8-year-old son is sick af, fever without limit… And the doctor? COVID test? Nope! He just doesn’t do it.
Why do I have the Corona warning app if I can’t warn anyone because I can’t know…?
It’s the same the other way around.
Everything is fucked!

22 weeks at home. Wife, kids, dog and me. Home office, homeschooling, and vacations. Tomorrow school starts again “normally” for now, my wife goes back to the office. Kindergarten starts the day after tomorrow. We’ll see how things settle in and how long the new normality will last.

I think Blade Runner is the best movie ever.
The best sets, the best effects, the best music, and, depending on the cut, a really good and thrilling story.
The film is set in November 2019. That’s today. But somehow it looks a bit different when I look out of the window.

Sheeesh, I have so many huge ideas for this site, but I still have lots of small details to work through. This is really annoying and frustrating. My post “Progress” is as relevant as ever. If only the days were longer.

Ich bin sehr froh, dass dir das Logo gefällt, aber auch, dass du mir über die Jahre treu geblieben bist 🙂
Vielen Dank für die lieben Worte und das Feature auf deinem Blog.
Mein Portfolio wird auf jeden Fall noch wachsen, Material habe ich ja genug. Aber meine millionen Domains sinnvoll einzusetzen, meine Webseite endlich auf Vordermann zu bekommen, zweisprachig, viele vermeintlich verlorene Inhalte wieder auferstehen zu lassen und dann auch noch Referenzen ordentlich rauszuputzen, alles gleichzeitig, bremst schon ordentlich.Eines möchte ich noch loswerden: Im November gehe ich 20 Jahre meiner Berufung nach. Ich habe mich komplett von Spekulativer Arbeit losgesagt, mache auch keine Freundschaftsdienste für Bekannte, Freunde oder Familie mehr. Der Grund, warum ich dennoch mit Freude ohne Zögern sofort auf deine Anfrage eingegangen bin ist, dass ich dir Dankbar für deine Open-Source-Arbeiten im WordPress-Umfeld bin und froh bin, dir etwas zurück geben zu können. Wegen Familie, Tier und Haus ist es mir zur Zeit nicht möglich, finanzielle Spenden zu leisten, also spende ich dir gerne meine Zeit und Expertise. -Diese Microformats-Sache ist ja noch vom letzen Logo 🙂
Also, weiter so! Und wenn du was brauchst, du weißt, wo du mich findest.

As I will not only have “normal articles” in the classical sense on my website but also a lot of interactions within the free internet, I have modified my feeds. This means that if you subscribe to my RSS or Atom feed, you won’t be bothered with all the interactions taken out of context, but only get the “big articles”. On notiz.blog, there is also a post on the topic that is worth reading.

Ich versuche mich hier mal an einer Antwort via Webmention. Hoffentlich geht es gut 🙂
Zum Thema: Ich bin ja gerade selbst dabei (diesmal wirklich), meine Webseite so hinzubiegen, wie ich sie auch haben und nutzen will. Da ist mir jetzt schon klar, dass wenn jemand einen RSS-Feed, der alle Beiträge ausgibt, nutzen möchte, echt Probleme bekommen wird. Mein Plan ist, dass alles, was kein “klassischer Artikel” ist, in einer extra Kategorie “Activity” oder “Aktivität” (Ja, meine Seite soll zu allem Überfluss auch noch zweisprachig sein) abgelegt werden. Final sollen darüber dann alle Beiträge mit den entsprechenden Kategorien aus dem Feed ausgeschlossen werden.
Ich bin der Meinung, jeder der heutzutage am Indieweb teilnimmt, technisch die Möglichkeiten hat, sowas auf die Beine zu stellen. Und von der Ethik her finde ich, dass das entsprechend auch jeder tun sollte.

I have changed the theme of my website. “Themeberger Basic” is the new one, which I’ve developed as a side project during the last months. It’s not finished yet, but well, if I’m waiting for it, it never goes ahead. Soon there will be another child theme, which will bring this spartan representation into the form I want.

Impressive drone flight but what stunned me more is this huge coaster with an unbelievable long ride.

I’ve successfully updated my website to #WordPress 5.0. No problems so far.
Until new year’s eve I’ll finish and upload my new theme I’m currently working on. The current theme was never been truly finished and that frustrated me so much that I lost my passion to write here. I expect to get back some publishing action here in early January.

In the past, I’ve rolled out version after version completely build up from scratch in a bi-weekly cycle. At that time I had the energy and time to do this, but no ideas and motivation for the contents.
Today I’d like to publish so much content, but I’m frustrated by the technical state of my website. I’m far behind my own plans.
It’s interesting how things can change completely but still leaving me unsatisfied behind.
-
I’ve been trying to find the very first versions of my website for a long time now.
Today I found shamefully small screenshots of version 1-4.
It seems like the pages themselves are lost forever.

Dear Michael, I learned yesterday that you passed away.
That affects me, makes me sad, it hurts. Not just because you’re the first friend who’s gone now, but mainly because you were such a good person and still way too young. You enriched the lives of everyone who knew you. Thanks for the great times. I will never forget them and especially you’ll be forever in my heart.
I regret that we have had far too little contact in recent years.In the digital world you called yourself “Srybil”, I can only say as an farewell: Sorry, but you were never lame!
I wish the people who were closest to you a lot of strength.
-
I’ve just noticed in the Google Search Console at “Links to your website” that in addition to many things that make sense, the following is in place 30 of the anchor texts: “women from the east are looking for men”
I find that very interesting, at least now I have a page for it 🙂

Oh no! This is so sad, my Google Reader replacement #digg also shuts down.

One day after handing over their WordPress site to the client, I’m surprised to find out that you can change the font color in the middle of the text…? Allowing access to all menus and sidebars was also a stupid idea…

Good morning Frankenthal! Yesterday I went shopping in the new EDEKA-market. It has become a really nice, big shop. However, I will never forgive the owner family Stiegler the destruction of the historical “After Work House”.
Just like I just can’t understand how a city can get rid of all its historically important objects piece by piece.

This week is kinda wrong… people I can’t stand are gaining sympathy points.
+1 Obama for knowing the Christmas disaster is on his head and being open to it
+1 Bayer Leverkusen for training in (somewhat) cold Germany, where all the other soccer clubs are going to hide in the warm… In the end, everyone has to compete against each other in the “cold” again.
+1 Frankenthal ghetto gangsters, who (apart from me) are the only ones who clear the tray at Mc Donald’s
I wonder what else is coming.
By the way, Facebook could show me how many characters I have left when I update my status. -Twitter is demonstrating how to do 🙂 -
Unabhängig davon, dass ich es schrecklich finde, Uhrzeiten in Form von “Viertel vor” oder “Viertel nach” zu hören, sollte es doch jedem, der in der Schule einmal Mathematik hatte, klar sein, dass es diese Bezeichnungen gar nicht gibt.
Es gibt Ganze, Dreiviertel, Halbe und Viertel.. -Egal ob es sich dabei um Kuchenstückchen, Meter, Liter oder Uhrzeiten handelt. Denn damit kann man rechnen. Eine dreiviertel Stunde plus eine halbe Stunde ergibt eineinviertel Stunden. “Viertel vor” kann man schlecht mit “Viertel nach” addieren.
Also, jetzt mal für alle:
08:00 Uhr – Acht Uhr
08:15 Uhr – Viertel Neun
08:30 Uhr – Halb Neun
08:45 Uhr – Dreiviertel NeunLogisch, alleine schon wenn man sich der Bedeutung von halb Neun klar ist.
“Viertel vor” und “Viertel nach” klingt shice, macht keinen Sinn, wenn man dann plötzlich nur noch “Halb” sagt und besteht des weiteren aus zwei Worten. -Das heute, wo doch alles mit so wenig Worten wie möglich ausgedrückt werden muss.
Es gibt natürlich noch viel mehr Gründe, warum ganz Deutschland die Uhr endlich einmal richtig lernen sollte, wie zum Beispiel dass sich Viertel immer auf etwas beziehen müssen. Diese Ansätze sind aber nicht von mir und eigentlich auch viel zu Viel, um darauf einzu gehen. Es geht auch nicht darum, warum es doof ist, “Viertel nach” zu sagen, sondern nur darum, dass es doof ist. Und darum, dass es keinen vernünftigen Grund oder Argumentationen gibt, dies zu tun.
Aber diese Uhrzeitenschwäche in Deutschland hat auch dramatische Auswirkungen.
So betrachte ich beispielsweise einen der aktuellen C&A-Werbespots, in denen ein kleiner Junge zu dem Mädchen sagt, er sei “schon Viertel vor Dreißig”. Wiedereinmal der schlechte Versuch, irgendwie Humor in einen Werbespot zu zwingen. Das alleine ist ja schon ein weit verbreitetes Verbrechen. Aber.. die Aussage ist auch vollkommen falsch.“Viertel vor Dreißig” macht wohl Zweiundzwanzig Einhalb (22,5). Da der Junge allerdings nicht mal Zehn Jahre alt ist, kann er nicht einmal “Halb Dreißig” sein, sondern mit Sieben Einhalb (7,5) gerade mal “ein Viertel Dreißig”. Könntet ihr jetzt die Uhr lesen, wäre dieser Fehler sicher nicht passiert.
Also, C&A, schämt euch! -
