And a pigeon almost flew into my face while walking to the tram. Can’t wait to see what else the day has in store. Maybe I should go back to bed and try to start over.

My day is off to a good start. My daughter wanted a rice cake (reiswaffeln) with peanut butter. Got a plate and started to scoop the peanut butter and realized that I didn’t get the rice cake. Was about to spread the peanut butter on the plate. 🤦🏼‍♂️

My achievement for the day. Added a new entry to the Info.plist file for our Xcode project and then the app proceeds to crash on launch. After an embarrassing amount of time checking spelling of the key and other recent changes to the project setup, it turns out that the value for the key should have been a boolean and not a string. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Thanks @troz@mastodon.social for your article about migrating from Process to Subprocess. I was missing something when reading the docs, but you helped things click and I was able to get things up and running.

Getting this account migration started before I talk myself out of it again. See y’all on the other side.

I think that I’m finally ready to migrate my mastodon account to my micro.blog account. I’ve putting it off for a while now. I don’t really like cross posting b/c it gets confusing on where the conversation is. I would prefer to have my blog as the source of truth and all conversations live there instead of in different accounts. That’s supposed to be the point of this fediverse thing. I shouldn’t need an account on every service, but we end up still doing that regardless. Mainly because the services still don’t play nice with each other. But I have hope that one day it will happen. For now, I need to simplify things from my side. I’m not sure if the mastodon migration will automatically update everything properly, so if you follow my mastodon account and want to keep following me then follow @donny@donnydavis.us.

Our daughter’s entry for the Awana pinewood derby race after church. She got third last year. I love seeing how excited she gets over this. I loved pinewood derby cars as well.

We went to see the Harlem Globetrotters in Düsseldorf on Thursday. It was such a blast. The seats that we had were double booked, so they upgraded us to court-side tickets. That made the evening so much better. Our daughter even got picked to go out on the court and do a trick with one of the players. That made the night so special.

After a several year hiatus I’m finally diving back into my Drafts action for Micro.blog. A bit frustrated at myself for abandoning it. Hoping that I’ve cleaned things up so that it works a little more reliably. Will push an update to it soon once I’ve tested a few more things.

My mom was 15 when Apollo 11 landed and watched it live on tv. Getting to watch the Artemis lunar flyby today, with her, makes it even cooler for me.
