Intel's 13th Core CPU generation, AMD's 7000 series and nVidia's RTX 40 series all seem to more power-hungry version of their respective predecessors. Given the current climate crisis, I'd hoped for increased efficiency, not this "throw more watts at it" approach.

Wait, there's an X-T5 now (or rather, soon)? This might be the moment to retire my trusty old X-T1...

Fujifilm X-T5 initial review

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant.

Creating a direct connection between your PC and NAS

NAS devices are great for storing large amounts of files, and making them available to other devices on the network. A typical gigabit home network is usually fast enough to conveniently access those...

I'm suprised by how much of a difference 2.5 gbit makes. Editing photos directly from the NAS is absolutely feasible now. Best three euros I ever spent 😀.

Just set up a direct 2.5 gigabit connection between my NAS and my PC. I love how these ports are becoming standard now. All I needed was a three euro cable.

Twitter has always had an "idiot problem". Now one of them owns it.

Tip: If you use #PrivacyBadger and #JitsiMeet, you may need to disable PB for the Jitsi instance. This morning, I found myself unable to mute the video. So I was forced to be the only one visible in a voice-only meeting. Awkward 😀.

This definitely my silliest contribution to the #WPPhotos directory.

Hmm, Twitter just updated me about a very clearly racist tweet I reported in July(!). The update just says they're going to look into it. Guess they'll need another three months.

Just to be clear, this does not mean I'm not 100% convinced that Metaverse will fail.

I see a lot of people comparing Meta's #Metaverse to Second Life, but I see parallels to Google Glass. * Developed by a big data company * Eyewear * Considerable initial investment for users * Major #privacy concerns * Some initial enthusiasm * Tech crowd very sceptical

For ten years I’ve wondered if me and my best friend completely ruined a young footballer’s life when we were teenagers. So, for the

This is especially true if you create "wrapper" blocks. None of their child blocks will be preserved, unless you whitelist your custom wrapper block. Ran across this with a page where all content was in a custom block. The excerpt was empty.

TIL that by default, post excerpts in #WordPress are run through wp_trim_excerpt, which removes all blocks, except for those whitelisted. So if you create custom blocks, you may need to use these hooks to have your block's content show up:

developer.wordpress.org

excerpt_remove_blocks() | Function | WordPress Developer Resources

Parses blocks out of a content string, and renders those appropriate for the excerpt.

Missie 4: Medische hulpgoederen en een bestelauto

Afgelopen weekend waren Lennart, Peter, Martijn en Roy wederom in Oekraïne. We brachten 22 dozen hulpgoederen naar Lviv, alsmede een gedoneerde bestelauto met koelsysteem. Onder de geleverde goederen...

Een auto vol medicamenten naar Lviv gebracht. Geslaagde actie door donaties en veel hulp. Lviv is een hele mooie stad waar het leven normaal zijn gang lijkt te gaan. Chocolade en speciaalbier mee terug en natuurlijk deze #koelkastmagneet #Ukraine #Lviv #MedicalAid

Amazing people always come across my way, they stand side by side in the most difficult struggle, the struggle for human lives. These people are endowed with a powerful inner strength that inspires them to fight the darkness, to go on overcoming pain and disappointment. 1/3

20 years ago today, we premiered.. Our time slot was less than shiny, we almost didn’t get a series order at all. But we kept flying, didn’t we? Thank you for making us mighty. Forever my TV family. I love them, and our Browncoats, with all my heart. ❤️ Happy anniversary!
