@movq@www.uninformativ.de LOL 🤣 I don’t think I could ever take Rust seriaujly 🤦‍♂️

@bender@twtxt.net @aelaraji@aelaraji.com Sorry this was my fault 🤦 For whatever reason my pod had never seen that particular Twt from @movq@www.uninformativ.de – And… There’s a bit of a “behavioral” problem with the Trusted Peers functionality that means operators have to periodically re-trust peers manually 😭 Need to rework this 🤞

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com all good now. Phew!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz awwww, wish I could help you with that! Is there anything people could do to help you manage it?

tux is helping me through this very anxious day <3

@bender@twtxt.net i’ve been trying to lock in!! it’s so hard but i really gotta relearn how to focus and just zero-in on what i need to do. ADHD kicking my ass but i’m fighting it!!

Once again, I went on a hike onto my backyard mountain after calling it quits very late. This time I brought my cam along. The view was extremely hazy, but the setting sunlight resulted in cool colors. The freshly cut grass smelled wonderful.

I saw a flock of pidgeons circling around and some sort of rat or mouse quickly running over the road in front of me from one field into the next one with a giant nut in its mouth. Or so I at least believe, couldn’t really tell, it happened so fast.

A couple enjoyed the setting sun on a bench and stripped their shoes on this warm evening. Somebody forget their bottle of water on the summit, but it looked rather cool in the evening light:

Not sure what they’re doing, but they now set up scaffolding at the ruin. I heavily doubt it, but it would be cool if they rebuilt the castle. :-)

On the way back I met up with a mate who couldn’t come along right from the beginning. We saw two deer on the meadow, but it was already too dark for my camera, the photos were totally rubbish. The sunset turned really pretty and colorful just in time when I reached home. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-06-10/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s cool! I think I never ran across a moorhen in the wild. Nor such a goose, just the “normal” ones. I should maybe try to sit on a watch to shoot some birds. With my cam, not a rifle of course. :-)

Hmm, something isn’t right.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I saw the original fine, but your reply (and mine!) show disconnected here. Hmm, “the plot thickens!” :-D Thanks!

@bender@twtxt.net there you go, it shows just fine on the souris instance

@bender@twtxt.net Can’t you see this twt ??

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz toally forgiven, and welcome back! :-) What’s new? Tell us all about it!

(#a23wqyq) @aelaraji@aelaraji.com I am missing the root for this twtxt. What was it? Hmm, referring to https://twtxt.net/twt/g5sjnlq.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you have no idea what a soul sucking, heartbreaking SOB 2025 turned out to be. I wish you the best of luck with whatever annoyances life might have thrown your way. Power to you, my friend.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Welcome back. 👋 (It’s a bit quiet here in general. 🤔)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks. 😅 Quite a few of them waddle around at the pond in our village. But those two individuals were seen in a nearby zoo. They’re not zoo animals, they just live there. 😅

Ce manuel de jeu Aigle d’or avec l’image qui fait teeeelement années 90!!! http://sid.cpc.free.fr/doc/jeux/aigle_d_or_le_retour_manuel.pdf

On sent les 30°C arriver là, avec la pénurie d’eau qui va avec (ça baisse dans la réserve). Alors on la joue collectif les copains : on récupère l’eau de vaisselle pour arroser, on privilégie la toilette de chat à la douche quand c’est possible et on reste pieds nus pour se rafraichir

rappel qu’on peut faire des recherches en chargeant peu de données et de JS : https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite

been a while! i’ve been using my laptop more to kind of change my workflow, but without my browser bookmarks to remind me to check some sites, i’ve forgotten to check yarnverse! forgive me friends T_T

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Heck yeah, these are some brilliant shots! Where did you spot the goose and moorhen?

Bird photos of the day:

• Egyptian Goose
  
• Common Moorhen (half asleep)
  
• Rock Dove

Depuis 16h15 cet après-midi, je n’ai plus internet… Ça aurait été trop beau que le changement de FAI ne pose pas de problème. Ça a tenu 3 jours. Que s’est-il passé au milieu d’un dimanche pour que la fibre soit down?

I wanted to port this to Rust as an excercise, but they still have no random number generator in the core library: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/130703

That’s the code, it’s surprisingly simple: https://movq.de/v/81dd5649be/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Only 10% of the German population had Internet access in 1998: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_in_Deutschland#/media/Datei:Diagramm_Internetnutzer_in_Deutschland.svg I guess I was lucky in that regard.

(If today’s tech wasn’t constantly trying to track and scam you, I might still be an early adopter.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice! The final desk looks like it’s right out of Skyrim. 😃

Having some fun with SIRDS this morning.

What you should see: https://movq.de/v/dae785e733/disp.png

And the tutorial I used for my C program: https://www.ime.usp.br/~otuyama/stereogram/basic/index.html

Speaking of fantastic and inspiring things, Epic Upcycling makes a wonderful desk from pallet wood and scrap metal: https://youtu.be/hY1-5PtJPo8 So relaxing to watch. I wanna make one so bad, too. I guess I start with the plane rack, though.

Fuck me, this is soooo bloody amazing! :-) I absolutely love watching the iterations on Primitive Technology’s belt and pully blower: https://youtu.be/1799Rqn71A8 It’s just so dang cool and really inspiring. This wants me do something similar so hard. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting, didn’t know that.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Very rarely does it happen. Yup, the clouds are to praise for today’s spectacle. Surpringly, the pink is fairly close to how it actually looked in person. I was pleased to see that. The neon orange in front of the grayish sky was way cooler, though. I wish I could close the aperture on my camera in the hope of capturing the insane color. Oh well.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oooooh, never seen that before. 😲 Either white-balance doing funny stuff or unusual “filtering” through those clouds. 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I didn’t even know about the internet back then. Might have been just around that time we got our very first second-hand computer.

Woooaaah, the sun just was a crazy orange disk in the sky. Looked super amazing. Unfortunately, on the photo it was just white. But then it turned pink when it reappeared below the clouds: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-06-07/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ctrl-U in Vim does something similar (“Delete all entered characters before the cursor in the current line”), but it does not put them into the “clipboard”. I sometimes hit Ctrl-U by accident and then my text is gone. 😡😂

Current toy project: an image feed generated by mk(1). Still some edges to clean up but it’s nice: http://a.9srv.net/img/_readme.html

A bill from our ISP in 1998.

We’re talking about a month here, 1998-07-27 to 1998-08-26.

Basic fee: 7.50 DM (about 6€ today).

Online time: 516 minutes, 23.53 DM (about 20€ today).

That’s just the ISP costs, if I’m not mistaken. The underlying phone calls were pretty pricey as well.

Image

Just as a little courtesy call (is that the right term?): 2025 continues to be annoying and exhausting, and I won’t really have the energy to work on twtxt/Yarn or texudus. Other than the occasional retrocomputing thingy (which gives a nice boost of nostalgia), I’m not doing much of anything lately.

j’ai un souci avec mon nouveau routeur : depuis mon réseau local, lorsque je veux rejoindre mon serveur via son ip publique, ça me renvoie sur le routeur et ne redirige pas vers la DMZ comme ça le fait lorsque je suis en dehors du LAN. Des idées? C’est un zyxel

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org LOL. I barely use my mother tongue. 😫

SuSE Linux 6.4 and Arachne on DOS also work (with Windows 2000 as a call target):

Aha! So, @bender@twtxt.net added all the Spanish feeds then!? ]:->

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Bwahahaha, exactly! :-D

@bender@twtxt.net Hm, I was just surprised to see so many non-english feeds in there. 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Like this? 😅

Aha! https://tiswww.cwru.edu/php/chet/readline/rluserman.html#Readline-Killing-Commands

Ha, I just learned that deleting text in my zsh with Ctrl+U to the front or Ctrl+K to the end puts it in a buffer that can be pasted by pressing Ctrl+Y! That’s neat. Even removing the last word with Ctrl+W moves it into this paste buffer.

https://jvns.ca/blog/2024/11/26/terminal-rules/#rule-5-vaguely-support-readline-keybindings

I guess I have to implement pasting in tt as well.

We went up our local backyard mountain and boy is it humid. The view after the rain is fairly good, but I’m totally soaked. No photos, I’m too exhausted for that.

Aujourd’hui, changement de FAI. si3t.ch va être down, mais il y a toujours mirror.si3t.ch et mirror.si3tch.eu

@movq@www.uninformativ.de oh, you bet someone is adding them. Being as we are a small community, I could almost guess who added what. 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I never did anything remotely like this. I might have to look into it some day. It might be a good topic for a Do What You Want Day.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Unfortunately. :‘-(

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’ve absolutely no idea how they’re poured in. I bet it must be some automatic thing. At least I cannot imagine that any sane person would ever add such junk to a list.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Where do they come from, anyway? Are they somehow auto-discovered or is this a curated list?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I don’t do a lot of CSS and tried to use flexboxes recently, couldn’t find a great explanation. I somehow managed to get the desired effect, but am I using them correctly? Who knows.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I cannot / could not imagine that, either – but if it’s publicly available on the internet and something links to it, they’ll eventually find, scrape it, use it. ☹️

@movq@www.uninformativ.de “Petrasilie” ist eine Verballhornung von “Petersilie” in unserem Haushalt. Frag nicht … 🤐

nixOS is so cool but why does it have this weird ass syntax what is happening

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh it wouldn’t be very long, maybe that’d make for a fun blog post! i just used the same tool that the nerd font people use to add glyphs, but for a “custom glyph set” i just added. the whole noto font LMAO

@bender@twtxt.net Muting on a domain level would be an option.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz That sounds fun! I’m happy to read an article on how you did that. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I am so tempted to agree with you on this one. There has to be a way to manage that without having to mute the bejesus out of them.

hacking jetbrains mono to include CJK characters from a noto font for stupid purposes (i listen to asian music and my conky sidebar has a lastfm widget so sometimes it shows asian text and jetbrains doesn’t render those. so i am frankensteining my way into making it do that)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I hear you! I’d also love to forbid any use in military software (development). Even though I cannot imagine anything of my stuff ending up there.

how do i still barely understand flexbox

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org HES SOOOO CUTE

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Das wär auch meine Vermutung. :-) Wir nennen sie hier Peterling.

@arne@uplegger.eu … Petrasilie? :-D

When I chose the MIT license for all of my software, I thought:

“Should I use GPL, which I don’t really understand? Is that worth it? Yeah, there is a theoretical possibility that some company might use my code in their proprietary product … and then what? Should I sue them to enforce the GPL? I’m not going to do that anyway, so I’ll just use the MIT license.”

And now we have those LLM scrapers and now it’s suddenly a reality that these companies (ab)use my code. I can see it in my logs. I didn’t expect that back then.

GPL wouldn’t help, either, of course. (Regardless, I now think that GPL would have been the better choice anyway.)

I’m honestly considering taking my code and website offline. Maybe make it accessible through some obscure protocol like Gopher or Gemini, but no more HTTP.

(Yes, Anubis might help. Temporarily.)

I’m just tired.

Sooo many new spam feeds to mute in the twtxt.net discovery view. :-( The RSS/Atom to Twtxt feed bridge was a mistake, I believe. I guess I just have to abandon that altogether and rely on my subscriptions to interact with new feeds in order to discover legitimate new ones. Not sure if that works, sounds like a chicken-‘n’-egg problem.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh, even a large one!

Getting a bit quiet in the Yarniverse.

@arne@uplegger.eu Was sind denn Petras? :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wow, this is sick!

@arne@uplegger.eu Ohh, sehr hübsch geworden!

Am Wochenende wurde mit Eisstielen, Stempeln und dem Lötkolben gebastelt.
Das Ergebnis sind Namensschilder für die Kräutertöpfe. Die unegale Optik finde ich sehr angenehm.

🌈 Hooray! 🌈

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz A blast from the past! 😅 And all of it still works, that’s quite the surprise. I mean, I’m making real phone calls here and let the modems talk over that connection … Almost like in the 90ies. 😅

Hey, hey, happy Pride Day! 🌈

HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE

@movq@www.uninformativ.de THIS IS SOOOO COOL

@nghialele@nghia.im Man, I wish I could watch Formula 1 on a regular basis again, but it has become expensive as fuck here. 🫤

Levé à 6h. Maison rangée. Litière lavée. Les pois chiche de la semaine cuisent doucement. L’air frais entre dans la maison. Café, brioche, les bulletins semestriels avancent bien, plus que 3 classes. C’est fou comme on est efficace quand tout le monde dort :). Je parie qu’il y a une corrélation entre le sommeil des autres et l’efficacité au travail

@starletvania@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Yes this thing is on 😅

@starletvania@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz hello ((hello hello [imagine this as an echo])). ☺️

@thecanine@twtxt.net with this you meant Conversations, not XMPP, right?

“Also, finally getting full screen view for avatars in XMPP - a better integrated one, after 25 years. Y@ay!”
