Not all cool watches have to cost an arm and a leg. I love my Casio Wave Ceptor.

What watch are you wearing today? For me, it’s a Seiko King Samurai with white dial.

Version 2.4 of Tiny Theme was just pushed out and adds new Microhooks, including the most powerful one yet. With microhook-uncss, you can enable a designer version of the theme that removes all default styling. You’ll still get the power of Tiny and its HTML layout, but the CSS becomes fully yours.

If anyone has enjoyed Tiny Theme, here are two ways you can express your gratitude (one and two). 😉

Since @manton just announced the new notes feature of Micro.blog, I had to give it a quick test run. And of course, I had to add a little Tiny Theme (2.3.1 required) specific styling to it as well.

Tiny Theme for Micro.blog has been updated to version 2.3 with even more Microhooks and a tweak to Category Pages.

I did some basic CSS customizations to Kagi that make a big difference in my opinion. If you’re using Kagi, have you made any changes? Seems like something where @maique would add some #fe7eb0.

ICYMI, Tiny Theme now includes Microhooks. This is a brand new way to customize a Micro.blog theme! And it’s still improving. Thanks to input from @otaviocc and @gdp, even more Microhooks have been enabled.

I’ve been a faithful Safari user for years, but I’m giving Arc Browser and Orion a spin. A main reason is better integration of Kagi. So far, I much prefer Orion. For any of you who’ve used all, what are your thoughts?

Teaser: An update to Tiny Theme with a major new feature is almost complete. Hoping to get it out today. It’ll be a big deal for those of you who like to heavily customize things.

I just backed Project Tapestry from the Iconfactory. You should too!

I’m a big reader and need some recommendations. In the mood for Mystery or Historical Fiction.

If you need a recommendation:

  • The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah is an all time favorite.
  • All the Light We Cannot See
  • The Winds of War
  • The Pillars of the Earth
  • Cloud Cuckoo Land
  • The Tatooist of Auschwitz

2023 was a great year. On to ‘24!

A few have asked, so answering publicly: Yes, I plan to add Bluesky replies support to Tiny Theme.

Due to travel & other family obligations, we did our immediate family Christmas today. It’s so much fun seeing the kids’ faces light up. And always funny what they really appreciate (a Braves hoodie, a kid’s cookbook, etc). But one big hit today was predictable: a cabinet style PacMan arcade game.

Ohhh. CSS :has() is now supported everywhere. This opens up so many possibilities for theme developers on Micro.blog. (cc @manton)

On our recent family trip, my dad brought the new Uno: Show ‘em No Mercy game (he got lucky to find one). It’s a lot of fun, and a highly recommend it. But be forewarned, it’s crazy!

I’m working on a dev version of Tiny Theme. Here’s what I know:

  • Unstyled
  • Support for native micro.blog features
  • No built-in plugin support (add this manually)
  • No scripts
  • No media queries
  • No settings

Created for those who want to create a custom theme without having to do all of the heavy lifting.

Items for sale (will ship): iPad Mini 6, TRM Neutron 2.0, Maratac LEP Cosmos, Eero 6 (3-pack), Ecobee Camera, Logitech Circle (Homekit version). Let me know if interested.

My wife and I just went under contract on a potential investment/rental property. It’s a new venture for us, so hopefully we can work out the details and make the correct decisions!
