After years of fruitless pursuit, I finally got my hands on some #Solid stickers at #Fosdem!! Thanks to the @NGIZero folks :D.

If we ever meet and you want one, let me know; I'll be glad to share them :).

Which one is it Deezer? Does my choice really "not affect my experience", or do I have to trade my privacy to play music for free?

Seems to me it is the latter.

Stackoverflow is down 😱

But don't fret, the Internet Archive has got our back :).

Starting in 2 hours! You can catch the livestream in the link below, or watch the recording later on. #FOSDEM #Solid

Remember that next week I'll be giving my talk on #Solid at FOSDEM! The schedule has changed since I announced it, make sure to be there at the right time if you planned on attending :D. There will also be a recording if you miss it live!

Well, now it broke completely :/

This is the biggest problem I see with these tools. It's ok if they don't know everything, but when they start making things up with complete confidence, that's a problem. I don't even think this "Okgrow" company exists.

Yesterday I reached 2000 movies in my Media Kraken collection, and I've watched 1208. It will probably continue growing at a quicker rate than I watch them, but I love having my own list. I never have to wonder what to watch next when I'm in the mood for a movie :D.

It's been a long time in the making, but I finally have a visual update for my upcoming #Solid app! It's still work in progress, and I don't expect to release it at least until the beginning of next year, but it's starting to show its real form :)

This is apparently year-old news, but I just found out you can create Emoji mashups in Android and that's awesome :D.

For example, 🌶️ + 💘 =

I've been working on my next #Solid app, recently I've been playing with some interesting concepts. What if you could use it completely offline, and sync all the changes with your POD when you're back online? #offlinefirst

When did Google start asking for this to watch age-restricted videos? (And how does having a credit card prove that I'm an adult?)

This new app is going to be fun to build.

So, #vue3 is finally out and looking great! And I'm so happy they skipped the "N" for the naming and went with One Piece! :D Now that sticker on my laptop is even more suitable!

The best podcast app I've used and this happens :( Of course, it'd be easy for me to say "upload it to a different appstore". But is that even a real choice for a business owner? I really hope that the future is decentralized. More technology like RSS and email please.

Here's something I've been pondering

Here's a sneak peek of the #solid media tracker I'm working on! I've probably spent more time than I should implementing some animations, but I'm happy with the results! https://noeldemartin.com/tasks/implementing-a-media-tracker-using-solid#comment-6

This is one of the funniest christmas traditions in Catalonia: Els Caganers! It's Christmas time and you start seeing figurines of anyone you can imagine taking a dump :D

I just found out the app I use to listen podcasts has a "hidden" stats page. And I've realized how much time I spend listening to them. I enjoy them, but I consume them mostly when I cannot do anything else like reading or programming (basically exercise/commuting). Bittersweet.

I'm sure if I eliminated my commute there are some I would still keep listening thou :D.

If all websites had this choice 👏
