Trying Raycast: Part One https://rknight.me/blog/trying-raycast-part-one/
Day one for #WeblogPoMo2024
Thinking of going back to solo instance for Mastodon. I was a happy customer of @ossrox but wanted to know if there are other providers I should look at? European, affordable, English site.
I’d love for micro.blog to be part of that exercise, but it’s a weird mixture of blog & social that doesn’t fully solve this. Currently it feels easier to me to have a separate blog and fediverse account.
TLDR; this is a monumental fuck-up by the EU, proving it is incapable of retaining alternatives to Silicon Valley even when it’s lucky enough to have them sprout up under its own nose. (We already know it’s incapable of producing them. Although it could, if it wanted to: https://ar.al/2019/11/29/the-future-of-internet-regulation-at-the-european-parliament/)

Is anyone successfully using Apple's high performance screen sharing? https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/remote-desktop/apdf8e09f5a9/mac How does it perform with fast wifi and/or utp?
Contemplating replacing the mac mini 2018 (Intel) in my garage with an Apple Silicon one, thinking it would feel like your local machine.
Really liked this Luck Surface Area chart from the Indie Hackers article by Jay. Nice simple way of visualising why it's important to balance doing and telling to reach maximum impact. Also shows that it's a balancing act.
Personally I always feel that I should tell more while doing and do more when I'm telling people what we're working on. Guess that's a never-ending struggle, but also keeps me sharp. 🙂
