We had 5cm snow at our scout yard at 10 o’clock. But it was nearly fully gone when we called it quits after sunset.

In May we charred cloth to be used as tinder. A fire steel and some wood shavings lit the fire in under a minute. Maybe half. That was good fun. I reckon I have to replenish the charred cloth soon, though. It’s crazy how great that works. I’m absolutely amazed.

We cut back the thorny brushes for hours and eventually winched out some heavy fallen trees. That was really cool to see this powerful winch in action. Absolutely effortless. It was also a complete one man show. We couldn’t do anything and just watch. There is no chance that we could have moved the tree trunks up the steep hill with just man power. Well, a few dozen people might have made it with great struggle.

Next time we have to cut them into smaller pieces and split them into firewood or keep some for contruction. I will see whether I can safe some to cut some boards from. A sawmill would be really cool to have. :-)

I built another small shelf for the drill press. I upcycled the wooden sticks from New Year rockets that littered the neighborhood. I really love the rustic look of it: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/tischbohrmaschinenregal/

When I glued the shelf between the posts of the stand, I tightened the long clamp too hard, ripping the back panel and shelf board apart. So, I had to reglue them. :-)

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.

I attempted to build a small try-square, but my metal working skills totally suck. I tried to flatten the metal blade with a file, but I didn’t reach my own goal. It’s not perfectly straight. The square is almost 90°, it shifted a wee bit when drilling the holes for the pins. Also, the blade is 0.1mm off of being parallel. I have to try again or simply just buy one.

Yesterday’s April weather offered nearly everything. Sun, rain, clouds, wind. Luckily, the rain wasn’t too bad, we precautionally brought our rain jackets and took cover under some trees for 5-10 minutes. From then on, it alternated mostly between sunny and cloudy. Perfect conditions for photography.

The 16°C felt pretty cold with all the wind. Especially at the summit for a late lunch. The clouds covered the sun for almost the entire time and the wind blew hard. Being sweaty from the way up didn’t help. The sun returned as soon as we packed up.

On the way home, it drizzled just a little bit, although the clouds were really dark. A nice surprise. All in all, we had a really nice hike. As a bonus, my mate established a new train ride record low to get home, despite all the Octoberfest crap going on right now.

From my 395 photos, I only kept 40: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-09-28/ In 18’s upper left corner you can see a black beetle similar to what I’ve seen earlier this week. The one that rolled over its side to change directions, this one didn’t, though.

The mushroom in 35 and 36 was enormous, easily 20 centimeters in diameter. We came across a few of them along our journey.

Yesterday, both temperature and wind picked up. There was even wind in the night, which is rare over here. Today, we also got a lot of sunshine, around 22°C and heaps of wind. The leaves and twigs were blown at the house door, it reminded me of a snow drift, basically a leave bank. I should have taken a photo before I swept it, it looked quite bizarre.

But I photographed something else instead:

My mate and I went out in the woods earlier and we came across 08 which broke off in roughly 6, 7 meters from 09. When it hit the ground, it made a 30 cm deep hole. Quite impressive. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-09-19/

In-reply-to » @movq Non-ASCII characters were broken. Like U+2028, degrees (°), etc.

Now WTF!? Suddenly, @falsifian@www.falsifian.org’s feed renders broken in my tt Python implementation. Exactly what I had with my Go rewrite. I haven’t touched the Python stuff in ages, though. Also, tt and tt2 do not share any data at all.

By any chance, did you remove the ; charset=utf-8 from your Content-Type: text/plain header, falsifian?

20° temperature drop in just a hand full of days. Ooof. We went on a stroll at 10°C today. I could have used a beanie, my ears were very cold. The sun was out, but hardly any people. Very nice. Also, no wind.

It was nice to finally hear a few birds singing again, although it was still fairly silent. The sun gave us a nice show. In hindsight, we should have stayed at the summit a bit longer. In the forest, we missed the very best, crazy red sky. We could only see parts shimmering through the tree lines.

I’m out of shape. I decided to walk up the local mountain to watch the sunset, but I arrived five minutes late, even though I sped up at the end. Should have started my journey ten or fifteen minutes earlier. I saw the setting sun at foot, but the photos were total disasters.

On the way there I picked two handful of blackberries in the forest. Delicious!

Today was the second time in my life that I saw a grass snake in the wild. They can easily be recognized by the yellow “ears”. Unfortunately, this one was run over. :-( But I jumped at the opportunity to photograph it as it didn’t escape in a fraction of a second like my first encounter three years ago. Still, poor fellow. :-(

On the way home, a deer jumped out of the brush in front of me and headed down the forest road before it went back in the other side. As always, that’s nice.

I also had to slow down a bunch of times because of frogs or toads on the paths. Not sure which ones, it was already after dark. I guesstimate it must have been 60-70 amphibians in total, maybe more. Some of them did not move to the wayside but rather into the middle of the track, right in front of me. Crazy suicide frogs! There were four reeeeaaaallly close calls. I could just avoid stepping on them after they tried to hop right under my boot. Not a centimeter to spare. No toads were harmed during my trip. Phew!

Once I had to stop completely because of the large activity ahead of me. A larger (about the size of half a palm) individual surrounded my foot and then jumped against my heel. Twice! What the heck!? :-D But suuuper cool experience. I’m very glad I actually went out. Totally worth it. I met so many amazing animals. Don’t care about the missed sunset a single bit.

In-reply-to » @mckinley He's signed up three times now even though I keep deleting the account, which is enough for me to permaban this person. I don't technically want open registrations on my pod but up till now I've been too lazy to figure out how to turn them off and actually do that, and there hasn't been a pressing need. I may have to now.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Thank you for using Lyse’s Unofficial Yarnd Help Desk: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/yarnd-disable-registrations.png

It cooled off to 20°C today, but mid week is supposed to be crazy hot again. It was a nice walk, also plenty of people around, though. So we decided against going up our backyard mountain to avoid the masses. We finally took a path that we haven’t checked out for years. That was pretty cool. I couldn’t remember anything on that.

In-reply-to » It's also (expectedly) in the feed file on disk:

@prologic@twtxt.net Yep. Doesn’t matter if JS in turned on or not. So it is somewhere hiding in the Go core. Some replacement going berserk, I’d say.

It happens to each bracketed text individually: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/bracketed-text/triple.png

But then the question still is, why on earth does it happen to old twts, too? I’m getting into my code excavator.

In-reply-to » @lyse As far as I know, they're still visible in the Web UI. Although, in the mobile app and youtube.com, I believe it tells you that the video isn't available without having to click on it. They don't tell you that in the RSS feed, and I agree; it gets annoying.

Righto, @prologic@twtxt.net, I just checkout out current main of yarnd (commit 5101ec240ddb0e5e39809bf8a7b847508b3ac298) and ran make dev. After registering a user and logging in, I then entered a twt with double bracketed text (without the equal sign on the second one, though) and it was expanded into eight brackets. So, this is clearly a bug. Let me dig deeper.

I hope I zoomed in enough, so you can read the stuff on my screenshot: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/bracketed-text/bug.png
