I have a bot where you can register your exercise routines. So now I have a few months of data, and I’d like to do something with it.

I think the gamified contribution graph from Github could be something interesting (to see how often you exercise and how intense it was)

Currently, I have this graph of burned calories each day and a sum, over a timeline, but I think it does communicate anything interesting:

A simple graph of the amount of burned calories across time

Any ideas?

@xuu@txt.sour.is You mean the mechanical one? I didn’t use it, but I suppose it wouldn’t feel great to the touch, compared to the most recent versions, feeling like touchpads.

Today I was discussing in class about Tetris, and I remembered a game we made in 2020, a frustrating Tetris

Morning everyone 😴😌

Since I wake up with the sun and this changes through the year, or depends on your position, I made a clock that says it’s 7am at the sunrise 🌅
So I always wake up at the ‘real’ 7 🤪

@mckinley@twtxt.net I always wanted to have an iPod with a Click wheel.
Sadly I only could use the iPod Shuffle, a few iPod nanos and an iPod Touch. In fact it would be a great to project to upgrade a Classic with that flash memory.

This looks like an interesting audio player, a bit expensive but a good replacement for the phone

@prologic@twtxt.net I have a flu, so I’ll die slowly tonight 😵‍💫, but I’d love to be in the next one 😀

@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee status.cafe is a cool service from the smol net, but I don’t see why not doing that with a twtxt file

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci

@prologic@twtxt.net it was the dream toy for a nerd kid. (Was it the early 2000s?)
Like a Palm Pilot + Game Boy + Walkie talkie + IM

https://restofworld.org/2022/latin-america-startup-developer-scarcity/

An interesting approach to the present, and possible future of the Mexican dream. A lot of CA and US citizens going to MX for a cheaper way of life, working remotely with fewer taxes. And also for Mexicans working for foreign companies.

Yeah, it’s an amazing picture. I live far away from the sea 🌊, so it’s always refreshing to watch that mix of sky and water.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I never used it… It looks like it shows a limited amount of toots (I don’t know if it’s limited by num of toots or by date range)

https://mastodon.online/@eaplmx.rss

@prologic@twtxt.net What are you trying to do?
Having the timeline from a Mastodon instance as a twtxt.txt file ?

Talking about unions in videogames

https://www.vice.com/en/article/pkgv48/activision-blizzard-is-trying-to-stop-a-union-vote-at-its-albany-office

@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee well… is to survive in the next subject, or to get a scholarship 🤷

@mckinley@twtxt.net I like to split my notes between random thoughts, against deep and shareable articles. So I think it’s nice to give your readers the option to choose.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yep, the name in Mexican is something like “throw up in the exam” (and forget afterward)

@prologic@twtxt.net TIL Rote learning, cool!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de it’s the same here, only the race in Mexico was broadcasted in public channels.
Luckily the paid TV subscription is only 7 USD/Month here, and you get a few faces a year

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci the answer is too long for a twt, but basically the collective power is tied to the source of power. That means the investors and owners. In a cooperative model the union has shares, votes and power, in traditional models there is the collective power of the group but not deeply connected to the source.

I don’t say it’s not important, please do that (like in my industry of videogames full of problems) but know deeply how power works. Simple solutions to complicated problems is populism.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de expensive to watch on TV?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I think that’s an oversimplification

@prologic@twtxt.net I agree… It has little activity, but I’ll do it for science!

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve changed it from # url = https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt to # url = //eapl.mx/twtxt.txt… Let’s see what happens

@prologic@twtxt.net hmm… For instance, I have the same file served on

https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt

and

gemini://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt

And it’s the same with my blog https://text.eapl.mx and gemini://text.eapl.mx

So the trick I’ve used is linking to //text.eapl.mx

Do you think this would work?
# url = //eapl.mx/twtxt.txt

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org hehe, pretty similar name here

I try to be empathetic with people knowing way less than me (I have like 30 years of using computers in an intense fashion)

And bringing an old conversation to the digital table, as we need training and to have licenses for cars, I think it’s dangerous that anyone can have electronic devices without enough training or regulations. Especially on matters of crime and personal information leaks.😐

@prologic@twtxt.net Shut up! I know almost nothing about how to fix a ‘modern’ car… 😅

My father-in-law always claims to me the only thing I know about cars is how to turn them on.
Disclaimer: My FIL’s father was a car technician, and he worked in his father’s workshop ¯_(ツ)_/¯

In an unsolicited tip, trying to study a few hours before is useless. You got to practice 3-5 times the same exercise, days before 🤪

IMO passing is enough, I can’t remember anything of the differential equations I studied 15 years ago 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It seems to be a score to settle + a childish attitude from him
https://www.espn.com/f1/story/_/id/35025176/why-did-max-verstappen-defy-red-bull-brazil

The aftermath was a mediatic problem for #Verstappen, strong words from #Horner, and a PR message of “nothing happened here, look somewhere else”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vi9cLQBIhWc

@mckinley@twtxt.net it generates HTML dinamically, it’s a golang executable with embedded templates on it’s own server, proxied by nginx

Basically I was following this and some other tutorials:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-make-an-http-server-in-go

Any advice is appreciated 😁

@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee haha, it should be Accelerator, Damn autocorrector

Anyway, it could be interesting for someone

Github Acceleration for Open Source projects 👀
https://github.blog/2022-11-09-an-open-source-economy-built-by-developers-for-developers/

@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee I did that in college… So, go for it, but don’t forget to pass the exam 🙂

What kind of music or content?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de maaaaybe 😬, it was the national gossip here

I’m stupidly angry because a stupid race…

That’s all the twt

#relaxingSunday

I share with you my first useful thing with golang
https://go.gemugami.com <- temp URL, will change later

A timetable updating automatically by the ICANN's tzinfo database. So it should reflect unaware DTS changes in other countries.

This timetable is fully inspired by https://mckinley.cc/time.xhtml of @mckinley@twtxt.net

@movq@www.uninformativ.de looks very German 😉

although I can’t find to automatically convert the UTC time to your local time 🤔

But I’ll keep researching on that tomorrow, see ya!

@marado@tilde.pt yeah, looks like a much better option

Sondage - Yarn Weekly Call - Framadate
https://framadate.org/lAvPm7WSMdL6MY9vpZ8BuwVd/admin

@prologic@twtxt.net yep, at least let’s start discussing it soon. I’m thinking of something quick and perhaps dirty, but good enough to avoid NOT having the call. Perhaps we’ll only use that tool once, maybe every week we’ll need to check for availability.

What do you have in mind?

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m in…

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve been thinking for ages about doing something like this.

Every commercial option I found requires Personal Information, has ads, and such. Maaaaybe there is a FOSS alternative, but I haven’t found any yet.

Doodle could be a Proof of Concept, but definitely not ideal.

It allows you to pick a few options in your local time, and I think it automagically picks the ‘best’ time

Please submit your choices to see how it works

@prologic@twtxt.net This is the best I found, please take a look: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/e71VJKAb

@prologic@twtxt.net sorry! 11 pm here, kind of late, and I need to start tomorrow at 8 am ¯_ (ツ)_/¯

2300 - 0200 UTC works for me (Friday or Saturday nights), if that’s an option for the next one 🙂

@prologic@twtxt.net why not? I have to attend a quick meeting in the neighborhood in 40 minutes, but I could try! Otherwise, I could save the same hour for the next one.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I got to make one with automatic DTS updates 🤔

@hashrock@twtxt.net oh, nice! What do you do there?
