@movq@www.uninformativ.de Nice boxes, yeah. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha, thanks! :-D Some deliberately crude GIMP work.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Apparently some new ones, yeah, like these: 🫠🫩

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What kind of Unicode do you use? All the new emojis?

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com

But it also wouldn’t surprise me to find out that people like Bezzos, Musk, and Zuckerberg are actually ghoulish aliens

Yeah, that’s easier to accept, isn’t? “Phew, they’re not human after all. They’re not absolute psychopaths with zero empathy – they’re just aliens. Humans are good!” 😅

@bender@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Ta! I don’t know about regional differences. But at the moment, they first start slowly appearing at around 21:45 to 22:00. And then it gets more and more. You’ve got about an hour until it’s over.

People often say that they are in and over the meadows close to the edges of the forest. But at least over here, there are literally magnitudes more in the forest. So far, I’ve maybe seen thirty, fourty (30-40) fireflies outside at the meadows, but one or two thousand (1000-2000) inside. Exactly like last year.

They like a little bit openish spots in the forest. Not like a clearing, but if you can see ~10 meters from the path into the woodland, chances are that fireflies will pop up. But if it’s really thick brush, the odds are very slim. The hotspots also slowly wander around over time. So, I just keep on walking after a few minutes of stopping to enjoy the show.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Congrats, I guess. ;-) I’m not gonna dive into the comments either. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Definitely silly in places (and the back-alley fistfight is AWESOME).

But it also wouldn’t surprise me to find out that people like Bezzos, Musk, and Zuckerberg are actually ghoulish aliens here to keep us into a state of reduced consciousness while they extract what they can. “Their third-world.”

It’s like the bearded-man says: “We could be pets, we could be food, but all we really are is cattle.”

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same, I only (vaguely) remember the more interesting bits. Most of the subjects weren’t my cup of tea. ;-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s what I believe as well. But again, it shows a similar thing when a video cannot be downloaded. Anyway.

It’s 34°C and all the shutters are closed. Walking past the front door, I was surprised that there is light sneaking through the covered glass next to it. I somehow thought it’s already the middle of the night. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Sometimes, views on quality code are 180° apart.

Here we are, it took me a bit longer: https://lyse.isobeef.org/code-readability/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org … I also meant to comment on the very neat and stylish Play Button, but forgot to do so. 😅😅😅

It seems another Japanese person has arrived at Geminispace. But I was updating the NEX protocol now.

this is a test

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com When I first watched that movie (decades after it was released, probably like 10 years ago), I didn’t expect that. 😅 Feels super silly today, and all the fighting and the “look at me, I’m a strong man” stuff. 😂

I used mbox.blue lightly: finger://mbox.blue/balloon https://mbox.blue/~balloon/

最近 lynx で自分のサイトを見たのですが、日本語も絵文字もちゃんと表示されてて驚き。Font Awesome よりも Unicode 絵文字が良いかな。

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh wow, nice. 😲 Never seen those in the wild myself.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org If I were to guess: They might have done so to avoid bug reports from users with heavily outdated versions. 🫤

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Apologies not necessary 😅

lynx browser, on foot (hehe…) looking around in that jungle for civilization of some sort.

But also: “I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass… and I’m all out of bubblegum.”

And: “You know, you look like your head fell in the cheese dip back in 1957.”

And: “Brother, life’s a bitch… and she’s back in heat.”

And: “There’s gonna be hell to pay. ‘Cause I ain’t daddy’s little boy no more.”

Just finished watching They Live (1988) again, one of my favorite movies, and one that has (sadly) remained relevant for nearly 40 years (some might even argue it’s more relevant today than ever).

Obey. Consume. No independent thought. Honor apathy. Do not question authority.

They live, we sleep.

@prologic@twtxt.net Very cool! Like @movq@www.uninformativ.de, I don’t think I’m the target audience for this (as I’m already a DevOps hobbyist managing a small server “victory garden”), but I love the idea.

Apologies for hitting it early, I initially overlooked the sign-up form and thought I would try it for 💩s and 😁s.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org the movie gives me a glimpse, not that bad. Thank you for capturing it, mate!

Is everyone watching the FIFA World Cup? USA advanced today, beating Australia.

I found my tripod and headed into the woods. There was a ton of glow. \o/ The fireflies were everywhere, super cool. It looked so amazing, especially with all the flying boys. There was one amazing spot in particular, I had 80-100 individuals in my view at once. Absolutely breathtaking. Unfortunately, the mozzies were also delighted about my visit.

I tried my best, but it’s impossible to capture anything on film with my equipment. The fireflies are just way too dim. In the end, I managed to get some very bright girls in the bush. That’s the best I could do, but still really bad. Sorry @bender@twtxt.net. :-(

And no idea what the heck is going on with the CSS there. Anyway. Garbage to trash, seems fitting. ;-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, the damn message to urge me into updating for no reason. It still works fine, why update then!? Leave me alone. If downloading fails, there’s already a hint that updating might fix it. The introduction of this banner in https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/pull/13937 doesn’t give any reason for that change either.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de

What’s your motivation for running this, btw? 🤔

Basically, two things a) feeling generous for folks that either can’t afford or find it hard to have a little place to call home (webpage, feed, whatever) and b) a real opportunity to test some of the components that make it possible sshbox, which I know works well as it fronts my Gitea instance’s Git+SSH service and box, a container runtime I wrote a while ago, recently improved, hardened and polished.

So instead of killing myself trying to be healthy, came home and jumped rope. Which nearly killed me.

Ran 3.25 km ( 2 miles ) at the lake but it was 30 degrees ( yes I use Celsius ), sunny and humid.

Oh finally, we survived to Friday.. so ready for the weekend to start..

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Okay, wait, what is the anti-feature here? The nag screen because it’s “old”? The inability to update when run from source? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net I think I said this before: This looks like a really cool thing! I just wish I had a use case for it, then I’d be all over you. 😅 But since I run so many servers of my own already …
