Went on a really cool walk today after the sun came out this arvo. Just 11°C and a fair bit of wind required a scarf and beanie. I love the autumn colors a lot and never tire of looking at them.

On the summit the view was absolutely terrible, because there were super low hanging clouds. But it still looked fairly spectacular. Very surreal, I could not make out the edge of the Swabian Alb. The haze just blended with the rest of the sky. Towards the sun it was just one giant white wall after half a kilometer or so. That doesn’t happen all that often here.

After dusk I saw five deer on a meadow. Well their outlines against the remaining backlit sky.

In-reply-to » Alright. I am---actually, "we" are---out for the next couple of days. Do me a favour and stick some needles on that orange voodoo doll you got---make one, if you don't!

@bender@twtxt.net Enjoy your vacation! I’ve got you covered as I’m currently building a voodoo doll out of silvester rocket sticks in the form of a small shelf for my drill needles.

In-reply-to » Been curious to see if can filter out my access.log file and output a list of my twtxt followers just in case I've missed someone ...

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Steal anything you want 🤣 f you manage to write a shell script version of the same tool I’d be interested in publishing it as an alternative tool 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah I’ve played with it for a bit and read through the code hoping I could steal some of your regex. I’m trying to up my awk(1p) game but failing miserably. 😆

We maintain a useragent tool for this 👌

I remember having seen one somewhere but can’t remember where.

So, I’m forced to use WhatsApp now. Someone told me: “Hey, I’ve been doing $thing, check my status!” Okay, fine, I open that and it shows a photo.

Then, while looking at that photo, it’s suddenly gone. No, not gone – there are several photos and it switched automatically to the next one. The timeout appears to be four seconds.

JFC, I’m getting too old for this. Let me look at the damn photo! Don’t rush me! 😂

In-reply-to » I dripped some whipped cream from the lid on the stove. When I licked it up I pulled my hair through the cream on my cake. :-D

Yeah, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, on this week’s episode of Hair Care Tips™ with Lyse: It’s super rare that I have spray cream, but at the moment there is a can in the fridge. After giving it a good shake, I parked the lid right next to the plate on the cold ceran stove, so I could apply some cream on my piece of apple pie. I then put the lid back on and noticed that there was some cream on the stove now. Since I did not move the plate, I dragged my long hair right through… :-)

In-reply-to » I’m seeing strange lights in the sky. None of my cameras are sensitive enough to make a video.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Some more options:

  1. Summer lightning.
  2. Obviously aliens!11!!!1

I once saw a light show in the woods originating most likely from a disco a few kilometers away. That was also pretty crazy. There was absolutely zero sound reaching the valley I was in.

I’m seeing strange lights in the sky. None of my cameras are sensitive enough to make a video.

It’s probably one of two things:

  1. A ship on the nearby river with a lightshow going. It’s rare but it happens.
  2. A steap hill nearby, cars driving “upwards”, and since super bright LED lights are normal nowadays, they reflect from the clouds.

Either way, looks fancy.

In-reply-to » Would it make sense for twtxt v.2 to do something similar to bluesky, where you use a domain as you handle by creating a specific DNS record as explained by: https://matthiasott.com/notes/how-to-set-your-domain-as-your-bluesky-handle

Unless, of course, we all switch to Rust. Then there will be a new version each month. 😅

@sorenpeter@darch.dk after so much debate and deliberation we have gotten to the point on which I can safely say there will not be a version 2. It is version 1, forever! 😈

Bare in mind that this kind of setup precludes anyone on shared hosting systems.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk@darch.dk This is basically very similar to how WebFinger used by things like Mastodon and Salty.im amongst others.

In-reply-to » Three days from today, towards the end of the day, we in the US will have an idea of who the nation's presiding person will be for the next four years. In the 32 years I have lived here, I have never been more worried about an election outcome.

@quark@ferengi.one Yeah i’m in deep red here. the governor race is getting split between a red and a maga that is running a write in.. but even if they split the vote 50-50% they will still be greater than what the blue will get.

In-reply-to » I wonder how long does Yarn caches a description header. Or rather, how often it re-fetches it.

Most of the time I think its the Go proxy I run. I wonder whether that thing is just a bit flakey perhaps? 🤔 I dunno, I’d need to invest some time standing up some kind of analytics so I can discover the pattern here.

@bender@twtxt.net Yeah tell me about it 🤣 I don’t even know why the networking fails at random times to be honest. The CI runner runs in Vultr on a VM connected to the Mills DC via Wireguard VPN. I have no fucking clue why things just fail intermittently at the network level 🤦‍♂️
