Erster offizieller Halbmarathon

Nachdem ich mir bereits vor mehr als einem Jahr vorgenommen hatte, einen Halbmarathon zu laufen, hat es nun doch bis letzte Woche gedauert. Eine wirklich lange Zeit, aber der Grund waren einfach Knieprobleme, die mich letztes Jahr zu einer mehrmonatigen Pause beim Laufen zwangen. Aufgeben wollte ich trotzdem nicht und habe deshalb die Auszeit genutzt, und meine Füße im normalen Alltag komplett an das Barfußlaufen zu gewöhnen. Für jedmögliche Gelegenheit gibt es nun spezielle, sogenannte Barfußschuhe in meinem Schuhschrank. Durch deren ständiges Tragen konnte ich die Muskulatur in meinen FüßenContinue readingErster offizieller Halbmarathon

Memchaser 0.6 has been released

The Firefox Automation team would like to announce the release of memchaser 0.6. After nearly a year of no real feature updates, but also some weeks of not being able to run Memchaser in Firefox Aurora (34.0a2) at all (due to a regression), we decided to release the current state of development as a public release. We are aware that we still do not fully support the default Australis theme since Firefox 29.0, but that’s an issue, which takes some more time to finish up. Changes in 0.6 Upgrade toContinue readingMemchaser 0.6 has been released
