I finished my marathon in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Despite the worst preparation in years, I beat the time Runalyze predicted by more than 3 minuten. My official nett time was 4h42m48s (6:43 min/km, 10:48 min/mi). Especially after the 32 K mark it became exceedingly hard to keep running.

About task lists. Once I’ve finished a task, I’m done with it. I keep forgetting I’ll have to update the list constantly. This hasn’t changed since iOS 7 and before. I get no kick out of checking off items, and find it a bore.

I’ll be running a marathon on 13 April 2025. It almost didn’t happen because of injuries, which only healed a week ago. To celebrate in advance I made this jumble of legs, arms, and a confused head. Its animation lives on the Divoom community, where I became a master pixel artist, also this week.

It’s been a while since I posted some pixel art on here, while I’ve been inundating the Divoom community with my creations, being mostly recommended by the staff. I don’t judge it high art, but I can see why they want to see more of it. Most don’t seem to post anything, or at best it’s low-effort.

Seen on my 8 km long walk today. This obelisk commemorates 75 years of independence of the Kingdom of the Netherlands on 17 November 1813.

The @pixeldailies.bsky.social #PixelDailies theme was #ladder Link has to climb the ultimate infinite ladder.

I started a new project in Procreate for pixel art. I already made a rough sketch and applied base colors (white, green and light-brown). It will become a 64 x 64 pixels piece for my Pixoo64. It’s been a while since I did a landscape, so it will be a challenge to finish it. Here’s a WIP.

A little WIP. Yesterday I made this tiny 64 x 64 pixels baby head, based on reference.
Today I gave the baby a torso. The dots are to easily scale between 64x64 and 1280x1280 pixels in Procreate. The latter resolution I use to sketch a new layer before turning it into pixel art, pixel-by-pixel.

I keep deleting episodes of the Apple News Today podcast, because of some autocrat still very prevalent in the news, while he should do most of his duties in silence and secrecy. Maybe I should just unsubscribe and be ignorant of someone who seems to like to hear himself talking, nay, blabbing.

I repurposed a previous pixel drawing for today’s pixel drawing for the Divoom community. The little guy is supposed to represent a nasty germ. We’ll see how it’s received. I like it.
