Microposts

Short notes, mainly with photos, quick thoughts, links, and small updates from my day-to-day.

First harvest from the garden. It seems that yesterday’s storm didn’t cause too much damage. #gardening #harvest #homegrown.

THOUGHT

If there is a #TIL (Today I Learned), why isn’t there a #TIR (Today I Remembered)?

Today I remembered that summer, when I was a child, in the village when I saw a Macintosh Classic for the first time. Being used to MSX/Spectrum, it was something new to me. #TIR

It belonged to a neighbour, Ramiro, who was older than me; he barely used it as a word processor and not much else. I think it was the first time I held a mouse… probably when I started to hate them 😂 #TIR

Sometimes the load feels overwhelming, especially when life throws unexpected challenges your way. It’s okay to step back and unplug for a couple of days to recharge. Life’s a marathon, not a sprint.

Being my first experience in something like this, I didn’t realize how difficult construction work could be. Tough times.

I’ve been reworking the About section of the website. Very interesting stuff about the nowpages, couldn’t resist diving in. Also updated the resume, which had been outdated for over a decade.

It’s been fun, for a change.

Today I’ve built a new template for Obsidian Templater that allows the microposts creation inside Hugo running a simple command:

---
title: null
date: 2024-05-22 00:26:11
draft: false
tags: micropost

I’m really starting to love this kind of things. #obsidian #TIL

Sometimes I feel a bit odd if I write toots in Spanish for English-speaking readers in Mastodon, but other times I understand that Spanish is the most suitable due to the location of what needs to be conveyed… so I’ve added this to my bio:

It doesn’t fix anything but it doesn’t hurt either :P
