Kippenvel.
De jongen weet niet wat hem overkomt.
11-year-old Danish kid Jens Fogh made Easter decorations and sold them, thereby raising USD 5300 which he used to buy 270 school backpacks for Ukrainian children. So while in Denmark, Zelenskyy presented him with a medal for his friendship.

Super dit! Het is nu juli, en ik zie nog regelmatig vuurwerkresten liggen op straat, ondanks dat er al een vuurwerkverbod was in Rotterdam.

@zhenyi Is there a way to browse contributions without going to each page separately? Curious to see what has been added so far.

@zhenyiblog Cool idea!

Also Dutch public broadcaster NOS made just a side mention in an article about Trump’s parade. Quoting “one of the many” visitors to the parade and when mentioning the protests it was right away mentioned that “some ran out of control”.

It doesn’t match at all what I read here on Mastodon.

De NS-app is soms toch wel eigenaardig: niet alle opties worden getoond. Om 21:34 de trein van Utrecht naar Rotterdam Alexander gemist, maar alleen de volgende van 22:03 wordt getoond. De optie met de IC 21:43 naar Den Haag en overstap in Gouda op sprinter wordt achterwege gelaten. Ja, duurt langer dan normaal en met overstap, maar toch 20m sneller thuis dan half uur pierewaaien op het perron.

@marioguzman We need to go deeper!

@pomCountyIrregs @BasementDweller3000 Indeed, both for Launchpad and the Touch Bar. The latter wasn’t that bad at all, just missed haptic feedback.

@kikeenrique @tonyarnold Same: not even an indication that is not available in my region. Was questioning my intelligence by now...

Swift 26 anyone?! 😅

If it is going to be iOS 26, macOS 26, watchOS 26, iPadOS 26, visionOS 26, I sure hope it's also going to be iPhone 26 and Xcode 26. Wouldn't mind them retiring the Califonian place names as well, except if Rancho Cucamonga gets picked. theverge.com/news/675945/apple

Why is it that the “Copying shared cache symbols” modal is modal in Xcode? Could do more useful things with my time than stare at Xcode twiddling thumbs…

@krzyzanowskim The website looks so fricking like someone is trying to prank me that I had to check the calendar if it wasn’t April 1st by chance.

@eriq Fancy! Leuk speelgoed. Wel herkenbaar: ik heb ook nog een ESP32 en wat sensoren liggen, maar geen idee nog wat er mee te gaan maken.
