Did you thing I'd forgotten about ? Weblog no no I did not. This is follow up of sorts to episode 015 of @hemisphericviews https://listen.hemisphericviews.com/015

@robb Oh, I remember playing Captain Comic. It’s was great. Impossibly hard though. For a long time I couldn’t get past the first level either.

I take my role as @hemisphericviews UK ambassador very seriously and also I was bullied into making this for them https://albums.rknight.me/

@manton Am I reading correctly that the posting API only supports uploading one image per post? https://help.micro.blog/t/posting-api/96

lmika,
@lmika@social.lol avatar

@robb You might be able to upload the images separately, get the uploaded URL, and use that in the post.

I’ve had some success doing that once. Here’s some sample code of how it looks (it’s in Go but hope you can make heads and tails of it):

Went to Phone Phix and got my phone phixed. 🙃

Got the USB-C socket cleaned. Cost a bit but the USB-C plugs are staying in place now, so I call that a win.

@lmika@social.lol avatar

@hl Hmm, me neither, now that I think about it. Interesting degradation of USB-C compared to Micro USB.

@matt Was thinking about The Mummy the other day. Would like to watch it again. Also Perfect Blue is a great movie.

Need to find an alternative to Postman for API testing. It’s quite capable, but something just repels me from using it. Might be its insistence that I should make an account, or maybe because the UI feels inefficient and clunky to use. I’d like to like it, but it’s just not doing it for me.

@lmika@social.lol avatar

@robb Ooh, it's by the same team that manage Kong. Interesting.

My wife’s computer keeps running out of space so I’m reviewing it right now. Very odd as this hasn’t been a problem in the 6 years she’s had it.

THIRTY THREE GIGABYTES OF PHOTOS OF OUR CHILD.

That’ll do it.

@robb Looks like you’ll need a bigger computer.

I've found myself using Feedle (https://feedle.world) a lot more when I need to find out about a service or tool that someone might have blogged about.

Really handy service.

Spent the last few days building a small site which will convert an OPML file of RSS subscriptions into an HTML list of links to their respective websites. I needed it for a blogroll I’m planning to add, but I figured this might be something others may find useful. https://opml-to-blogroll.lmika.app
