Picture from the office this morning :)

#Greenwashing 101, from #PingoDoce: 1) create your own “ecodesign” stamp; 2) put your “ecodesign” stamp on your products even if they have an obvious use of plastic lids where no plastic would be necessary; 3) profit.

Hulduefni and Merankorii joint album “Synthetic Works” was released on this day, nine years ago.

Exciting!

Looks like Google’s using this blog post of mine without my permission. I hate this kind of tech company crap so much.

Quite predictably, the introduction of Chat GPT, has led to even more browser bloat. 🎉

Also since I’m already bringing up opera - I have genuinely no idea, what their dev team is smoking, as all their additions this year, have been this desperate:

From some cashback scam and TikTok integration…

…all the way to some “lonely men bait” and adding NFTs - a full year, after everyone stopped caring.

@prologic@twtxt.net and it even looks okay on mobile without any extra work, but it does not like long names:

Working on improving how the External feeds under /feeds looks: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/commits/branch/feed-list

The idea is to use the design for /following and /followers too and use it for a base for other lists down the line.

um poema censurado para o dia do livro, em ante-véspera do 25 de abril:

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net here’s the same prompt on craiyon.com, no retries:

Working on showing attached images in the desktop client, it worked on first try.
Now I need to fix the scale and alignment - but cool that it works already!

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net It is experimental and still under development, so feedback is highly appreciated 🤗 Enable with webfinger and activitypub

Lookong good 🤞

Symptoms mostly gone too 👌

Oh look I have a cisitor$ 👋

Hello little magpie 👋

Ahh finally the taste of good coffee! 😋

– Wasn’t having any coffee the last few days due to elevated heartrate from the stupid Chorona virus 🤦‍♂️

Gimme a smile Rusty!

Chexk this out! 😳

Some projects are now calling themselves “AI Native” 🤣😆

Nice morning walk today.

The problem of course is the position this forces me in to, with all of this “nonsense”, means you end up having so many different competing specs and protocols that you end up in exactly the position we’re in now with “chat”:

where none of them work with one another and there’s no effective bridging, data or identity portability.

I successfully built @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no ’s Yarn Client on EndeavourOS, but it crashed as soon as I entered my credentials.

It’s pretty but it’s not stable yet.

I rally find this rhetoric quite counter productive 😢

What about the Pocket C.H.I.P?

I would love to have one of these..

I added all the timelines, so now you can switch between ‘discover’, ‘timeline’ and mentions from the drop down menu :)

Progress - progress, love it when things fall into place.

If you hit ‘reply’ on a post it fills in the mentions as well in the status entry box.

So now it looks like this:

Sweet, been at this for hours today. Backups are finally working much more nicely 👌

@rrraksamam@twtxt.net Yeah sorry about that 🤣 I swear one day I’ll get fiber 😅 One day

For a good while I have been trying to recall the name of what was arguably the arcade game I played the most in my hometown, as a kid. Finally, I recalled: Cadillacs and Dinosaurs.

@dfaria@dfaria.eu I’m more of a “Sol Invictus’ Black Easter” kind of guy:

Time for a new screenshot :)

Nice view here 👌

Apparently, this is a big concrete pump. I can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like this in my life. 😳 can someone more knowledgeable about these machines explain this to me?

I still have great memories, of playing Club Penguin as a child, or even playing it on a few private servers, at times, as a nostalgia-filled adult, after Disney destroyed and took down the original. Sadly most of those servers were either too obscure, broken, or not obscure enough, to avoid Disneys lawyers.

I was mildly excited, when I heard about a 3D sequel, made by some of the people, behind the original game (before Disney bought it), but this is suspicious at best.

Even if you made the funny penguin game from my childhood, I will not give you my social security number, nor my credit card info, to play the new one and I hope not many others will either.

*The sequel is called “Party Parrot World” and requires a “verified Hideaway account”, if you want to play it, or try some other two game things, that they are currently working on.

I said, I don’t want to hear any more Trump news, but seeing he’s still seething in all caps and some invalid characters, on his isolated bootleg site, made me chuckle.

The only way, this could get more pathetic, is if he starts spamming 5 emojis, after every word. 😂

I always love riding this bike, such agility, but this day in March it was snowey as heck! Beautiful Canadian day.

This is a neat little alleyway. The sun and the snow made this cool wood sided house look really sweet.

It was about where I took the pic of my bike, and lit a cigarette 🚬

Got the gui to scale properly with the window now, was easy to fix… Looks much better already!

The GTK gui client is coming along nicely.
Added avatar support, and reply button.
It’s pretty obvious that the GUI does not scale properly yet, but I’ll worry about that once the last feature is added. Now I’m only missing the ‘post status’ gui, I need to think a bit about how I want that implemented.
Anyways - here’s the latest screenshot..

@funbreaker@yn.vern.cc Hi! I have attached the current screenshot, as you see it’s not done yet, I need to add some things, but a lot of work is already done.
I will fix the remaining things and try to make it usable enough this week so that I can upload the source.
Need to add the remaining reply button, image loading and width of the text etc first.
I had that in the FLTK client, so I just need to add it to this new GTK gui.

Here is what I had with FLTK
https://yarn.stigatle.no/twt/4nuoc7q

I did not have time to work on those things today, ran out of time. But I’ll resume tomorrow.
