  I really need to stop testing out different code editors when the one I'm using already (VSCodium) is setup perfectly and I have zero problems with it 🤦 Just back from trying Gram - its a Zed fork with a cute toad mascot: https://gram-editor.com/

  Every morning I step outside is a chance to see something cool, like today! Good morning from this amazing multi-coloured pal. 🪿 European Bee-eater, https://ebird.org/species/eubeat1 Not just bees, caught this one snacking on a wasp. They sound really cool too! Wish I had recorded it. It's my first sighting of such a bird so I'm real excited ☺️ #Birds #Photography

  Thankfully the weather is cooling down a bit tonight! - Even the birds seem to be more abundant. I always struggle to ID these crows though, at least beyond the genus level. 📷️️️️️️️ Sony A6700 🔭 TTArtisan 500mm F6.3 🎛️ 1/320, F8, ISO 1250 🎨 darktable 🪿 Crows, https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/7998-Corvus 🪿 House Sparrow, https://ebird.org/species/houspa #Birds #Photography

  Reckon this is too much? 🤔 *looks at my feed at pals getting replaced by it, fired for not using it, environmental damage, rampant scams, pointless & careless crappy output, etc etc* Nah.

  Migrated all my projects from GitHub to a PikaPods hosted Forgejo 🥳 such a pleasant experience it was! Now I just want to find an alternative to GitHub Desktop. Sublime Merge looking nice, Fork too 👀

  Getting my ass saved with quality articles like this. I’ve come back to this one a few times now; it always helps me navigate adding a table onto the page. https://piccalil.li/blog/styling-tables-the-modern-css-way/ By Michelle Barker for @piccalilli

  Went and touched grass in Évora yesterday, with a lil stretch of walking along an Ecopista 🥾 Ecopistas are cool because they're made using decommissioned railway lines, and are developed to accommodate cyclists and walkers :) Being old railway lines, the paths are looooong, but flat. I didn't respect the sun properly though... so caught a bit of sunburn 🌞 #Portugal

  Agonizing over the page meta (dates, tags, last edit, word count, etc) and just _how_ to display it 😩 Icons? Just words? less? more? - - - Just text example: Posted under the <a>adventures</a> category.

  Doing away with an "Estimated time to read". I don't know you, nor should I make such judgements. Might keep a word count though, even though it's not a metric I myself use/check when reading posts.

  For some reason hundreds (thousands?) of ants decided to take the palm tree seeds from a felled tree in our garden, and are transporting them in a line into the field next door. Not just palm tree seeds, all sorts. Look at these industrious lil fuckers go 💪 #Ants #Insects

  Day 1 of practicing with a lens I currently dislike to see if I can learn to tolerate it, and also practice some bird photography while I'm at it. 📷️ Sony A6700 🔭 TTArtisan 500mm F6.3 Two house sparrows ☺️ #Birds #Photography

  Trying to learn/understand the camera settings a bit more. There was a Cattle Egret earlier but as soon as I got close it flew off, and I had no chance doing this handheld. So another house sparrow it is! 📷️ Sony A6700 🔭 TTArtisan 500mm F6.3 ⚙️ 1/2000, F16ish, Auto ISO (6400) #Photography #Birds

  Solo/freelance folks that don't need public repos, if you're not using GitHub, what are you using? Asking because I want to start moving my eggs outta that basket. I've been considering Gitea (maybe hosted via a PikaPod?)

  CSS pals 💜 Anyone pulled off something like this before? Perhaps you've seen it on a site in the wild or experimented yourself. Please help 🙏 A responsive CSS grid (size doesn't matter) with visible grid lines that go beyond the contents/grid-cells So far I've tried pseudo ::after/::before, linear-repeating backgrounds, and I'm currently trying to make it work with a duplicate grid overlayed on top... EDIT: @chriskirknielsen cracked it! 🤩 https://front-end.s...

  Hello / Hej / Olá 👋 Just made to move to front-end.social! 🥳 (Thanks @ben ) I love #HTML, #CSS, and #JavaScript, 11ty is my fav SSG, and I've recently been enjoying Vite for little experiments and SPA projects. Currently working on a lil weekly planner and kanban system. I also love nature, board games, and a bunch of other stuff I'll probably share from time to time. Until I have a personal website to share (it's currently WIP...), here is a random CodePen I like: ht...
