Recovering space with Daisy Disk

I’ve been experiencing low free storage on my personal Mac and I mentioned that to a colleague. My colleague recommended using Daisy Disk to clean up unused data. Here it is a screenshot of the used data: When you run Daisy Disk it will scan your disk and create a breakdown, like the one below and you can navigate in order to find data you want to delete, most of the times you don’t even know it was there.

A collage challenge

A couple of days ago I posted a collage I did using ProCreate on an iPad. Now that this month’s challenge is almost over I’ve decided to try another challenge, this time posting a collage per day for the month of September. Since I don’t own an iPad and used one that I had access to, but that won’t be always the case, I want to try to use Pixelmator Pro for the collages I will be doing during the challenge.

Almost there

I am almost done with my 30 days challenge and I managed to stay on track. What should I do next? Challenges are hard but they push you through, so when I first post about this idea of the 30 day challenge, Sven mentioned on Mastodon and told me about the 100 days to off load so this is something that I am considering doing. I did a quick math and if I want to complete 100 posts by the end of the year I will need to post 4 times a week from now to the end of the year.

Collage

Today I have decided to create a collage using the iPad. I used Procreate.

Fun accounts to follow on the fediverse

There are a few accounts in the fediverse that are quite fun to follow, some are bots other are maintained by people that usually do a great job keeping the fun stuff coming.

How I've been adding new pages to my blog

As I was adding my /slashes page yesterday I noticed that it always take me a while to remember all the steps I have to do to create a new page and add it to the nav bar of this blog/website. So this is a post to remind me of this steps: Create a new .md file under the /content/ folder. Change the config.toml file Create a new menu.main section adding the new page Change name, url and identifier Change the weight to match the position desired in the nav bar menu.
