↳ In-reply-to » Regarding https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-10-31/0/POSTING-en.html, @movq: Despite having watched meillo's talk on troff and friendsÂč over one and a half decades ago (and thus forgotten everything), it feels soooo alien, I'm surprised. I should really look into this myself. I frequently use gq} and gqG. They're real lifesavers.

(I’ve been a bit quiet lately, because I was still absorbed by this. 😅 Kept writing/extending that story from different angles and the whole thing grew from 120 to 260 pages. 📜 I think I’ll give it a rest now. 😅)

This API is marked as "deprecated" on their API docs website, but not removed.

For those of you that are used/customers of casn.run:

cas.run was down from 13 November 16:32 UTC until 14 November 02:12 UTC, after the server it runs on was deleted by mistake. We restored it from the nightly backup taken on 12 November at 17:00 UTC, so anything you changed between then and the outage (a new token, service or setting) needs doing again. We’re sorry for the disruption. Paid accounts have been credited a month.

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Yeah, it’s a CD from my cabinet. It’s old, though, I got it when buying CDs was just a normal thing to do. 😅

It’s not necessarily my “mission” to collect this stuff, but I still buy new CDs these days. I just like having something physical, I like reading the booklet, I enjoy the artwork. Guess I’m just old-fashioned.

But it has become rare. The last one was “Leitmotif” by Dredg about 1.5 years ago. And that’s an old record as well (1998), I just never got around to buying it back then.

Okay, I admit it. Maybe I do collect this shit a little bit. đŸ€Ł

Como se fala isso em Portugal?

Also, I find it interesting that my e-mail client just invents the Epoch in the overview, but the details then correctly say that the send timestamp is unknown. A fallback to one of the Received lines would have also been nice.
