@prologic@twtxt.net Oh, nice! I like fog.
@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣
@prologic@twtxt.net I didn’t heard about that. I just searched around, and people donated $4M worth of crypto to Trump, it seems. That could be more, or less.
That, though, doesn’t makes us complicated. It’s the whole lot of everything else that does. 😬
@bender@twtxt.net I heard one of the candidates promised to invest 4,000,000 bitcoin 🤣
Complicated nation is an understatement.
@bender@twtxt.net it’s very muggy in the Table Tennis hall right now I had to take my jacket off 🤣
@prologic@twtxt.net foggy! I bet it’s hot now. 😊
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’ll fix it tonight Sadly I have to rebuild the index 🤦♂️
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org This ☝️
@thecanine@twtxt.net Step 1: Uninstall it. Step 2: Success! :-D
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Safe ride, don’t get injured!
@bender@twtxt.net Ah, thank you! So, 14:00 UTC+2 might work out.
@bender@twtxt.net It cost what you mentioned here too, but they had a special discount, and the shop gave 20% discount for all the gear we needed (since I bought the bike + gear for two persons), so all in all I got a really good deal on it. Also interest rate is locked for 3 years (low rate) so that was also a good deal.
I just took the longest time I could on the loan, to have a low price each month, and then i just pay extra whenever I can to get it payed down faster.
Luckily the Marlyn, my son, and my daughter all fit the same gear, so the 3 of them share that, that saved a lot of money too :)
When i met Marlyn (before we had kids) I asked here to go on her first trip with me (I had a bike before I met her back then), and we went on a 2 week ride from Norway to Italy and back (venice) through the alps and all that. Was super fun, and I think it’s pretty cool of her to say yes to a 2 week trip as passenger :)
its not remote… though its on a mountain side where the land grants allowed monopolies to occur. Pretty wild that it happened but only specific vendors have utility right of ways. Its been in litigation with the city for years.
@thecanine@twtxt.net “Now you can finally use the fucking webapp.” LOL. So glad I don’t have to deal with all that!
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no that’s so cool! Wish family would let me buy a bike; they fear too much for my life to allow. LOL.
That bike is $8,000 here. Cheap, but not too cheap! The gear you are wearing (boots, gloves, pants and jackets, and helmets) aren’t cheap here either! Fun hobby, nevertheless. :-) Enjoy, and ride with care!
Bought a motorcycle this summer, I did not want two cars, and Marlyn would like to have the car more when I’m at work. So I bought a new cheap motorcycle, KTM Adventure 390.
It’s been 10 years since I last had a motorcycle (back then I had a KTM 990cc).
Here I am with my daughter on the new bike :)
My kids love to go for rides, so does Marlyn as well, so it’s a lot of fun for all of us.

The Facebook Messenger Android app user experience:
- App fails to update, so you have to reinstall it.
- You login and have to accept all the bullish terms of service again.
- The loading wheel gets stuck so you have to restart the app and do it all a second time.
- It tries to download your language and fails, so you have to click “download again” and wait for the app to slowly crunch everything together.
- Now you can finally use the fucking webapp.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org see https://twtxt.net/conv/b4ry7ma. I searched on Yarn for “saturday”, then sorted by “newest”. :-)
Heck yeah! I saw my first slow worm this year. Very cool. :-) We also came across some art in the woods. Surprisingly, the blackberries in the forest were mellower than the ones on the south side bushes with sun exposure all day long.

@prologic@twtxt.net I will try. Which time was it again?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ah, I did not have a portable diskman. Just a stationary radio with an integrated CD player. Or my parent’s stereo. But it’s sooo long ago, I can’t remember how long switching tracks took. Yeah, on second thought, maybe a second. Well, that actually improved then. Finally. Nice. :-) Loading the CD took several seconds, that’s for sure. And some devices were certainly slower than others.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, that has nothing to do with fun. 😅
I was thinking back to CD players. Switching tracks took a moment, although I don’t know anymore how long exactly. IIRC, playing CDs on a computer was a bit slower than in a dedicated player.
Don’t worry, switching to the next OGG file on my disk is basically instant. 😅
@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Yep, @xuu@txt.sour.is’s watcher would be my guess as well. :-D
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net Thanks, mates. I was on the fence with 13 and 15. :-)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de There’s a big difference between being usable somehow and having fun using it. My tolerable limits are lower, but yeah. Up to five seconds for the “next track”? What music player are you using? :-D This must happen in way under a second, and luckily, this works here. :-) (But I’m also not streaming my music, it’s all on the local disk.)
Oh I forgot again 🤦♂️ Last Saturday of the month, so if anyone’s up for a friendly catch up over video tomorrow? Same time, same place 👌
@bender@twtxt.net Weird dunno what to say🤣
@prologic@twtxt.net that’s how my face looked, for sure! 😅
@bender@twtxt.net Huh? 🤔

FWIW I’m still trying to find the the cause of the mult-GB avatars that both @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no and @abucci@anthony.buc.ci ’s pods were both teying yo download. The flaw has since been fixed in the code but I’m still trying to investigate the source 🤞
@prologic@twtxt.net somebody is playing with a new toy.
@prologic@twtxt.net people went to sleep? I mean, at 03:00 I am on my second, or third sleep. 😜
Oh, AEST! No idea, but it might have been @xuu@txt.sour.is. LOL.
Hmmm something happened last night at ~3am (AEST) that decrased traffic to my pod quite considerably… Hmmm? Anyone have any ideas? 💡

@xuu wow, such a remote place, eh? I imagine you living somewhere in the Himalayas, driving to town once every couple of months to resupply.
Don’t get me wrong, it is attractive, until my Internets are threaten. Then all bets are off. 😂
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org lovely! I would have picked this one as a cover.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org But stuff is still “mostly usable”, isn’t it? It’s not like it became impossible to write a letter because everything has gotten so slow.
That’s what I meant by “absolute” performance: A human being tolerates a system boot up time of 0.5-2 minutes, for example, so there’s an absolute/fixed duration that any task is allowed to take. Boot: 0.5-2 minutes. Opening Word: 1-10 seconds. Saving an image file: 1-10 seconds. Time until the next song starts to play when you click “next track”: 0-5 seconds. Stuff like that. As long as we don’t exceed those durations, people will be more or less happy.
Wasted potential? Ab-so-fucken-lutely.
(Maybe I’m repeating myself. I’m tired. Sorry. 😅)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Uhh, nice. Haven’t seen a sunset like that in a while, I think. 🤔
@bender@twtxt.net haha funny! though i just realized my ISP is the only one with fiber pulled to the property so i would have to get a phone line from them some how. The other ISP in the area is basically a mobile hotspot.

Xuu has shutdown his pod now, probably to avoid losing connectivity.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Can you please check if you reported @xuu’s IP address 162.211.155.2 on mistake and let his ISP know that this was some false alarm? They’re monitoring his traffic to your server and treating this as continued abuse. :-(

he emailed my ISP about causing logging abuse. This is the only real ISP in my area, its gonna basically send me back to dialup.
