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/

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

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

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.

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.

@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.

@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. :-)

@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.

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

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!

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

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

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Cool, that animation is quite hypnotic. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Regarding https://www.uninformativ.de/blog/postings/2025-05-21/0/POSTING-en.html: Hahaha, that’s what I immediately thought, too! The pain of going back to CVS. :-D I used that back in school. Quickly after, I upgraded to SVN and even that was terrible in comparison to a modern VCS, such as git.

In any case, happy hacking!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Zum Beispiel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-unPs-NrVI0

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s cool! Both of you can now form a house band. :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ta! The dead end wasn’t all that bad in my opinion. Personally, I really do like dirt paths and exploring. It was all dried up, so no muddy mess we had to walk through. More like climbing over thick branches that have been worked into the ground by harvesters or forwarders in the muddy winter. Rough terrain. My mate, on the other hand – whose idea it was to check out the real summit in the first place ;-) — wasn’t all that pleased about the detour. Oh well. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Das klingt ein wenig nach einem Johnny-Einschub zwischen zwei Liedern auf einer EAV-CD. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, that sounds pretty good!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What a wonderful present! Crazy how time flies.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m glad you like that raven. :-) This is the original for when you get a screen as big as an entire wall one day: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-05-16/01.JPG

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I only listened to you while going through my photos, so I did not pay very close attention. :-)

Since you have a proper server – haha, not just one – and hence are not limited, I suggest you learn a real programming language and don’t waste your time with this PHP mess. It might have improved a wee bit since I was a kid, but it felt like some hacked together shit. The defaults also were questionable at best, it was easier to hold it wrong than right. This stands testament to bad design and is especially terrible from a security point of view.

You’re right, programming is like any other craft. You only truly learn by actually doing it. And this just takes time. Very long time to master it. Or as close to as it gets. The more you know, the more you realize what else you don’t know (yet). It’s a never ending process. So, take it easy, don’t get discouraged, happy hacking and enjoy the endeavor! :-)

We had sun, clouds, wind, rain and a whole lot of fun on our trip to the Wasserberg. We’ve been out seven hours in total, not bad at all for all those kilometers. We added on some detours to check out a pond I’ve been introduced by a mate a few years back.

After some (expensive) tucker at the Wasserberghaus, we tried to actually visit the summit this time. However, there’s nothing to see, just a rough logging trail (46-49). That was a dead end, so we had to turn around. It was some nice exploring, but I reckon this was my first and last time up there. :-)

Unfortunately, we didn’t go to the neighboring Fuchseck this time, only the Wasserberg with some extras.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wow! This giant Tux is just fucking amazing, I have to say. Even a bricked Tux and a GNU!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Yup, we got lucky. :-)

@thecanine@twtxt.net Things in general just sitting around collect dust. Granted, plush is an even worse dust magnet. We badly need some anti-dust material. ;-)

Nice, did you print this keychain yourself?

@bender@twtxt.net Hahahaha! :-D

Once again, we had some very beautiful colors this evening: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-05-16/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, okay. Too bad. :-D Or luckily, thinking of all the dust they collect.

@bender@twtxt.net Just to save some unnecessary und useless network traffic. :-) So that I can download more 1080p videos!!1

It’s this time again to archive another quarter. I should do this probably monthly to keep the main feed small.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Ta!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Woah! :-) Is/was that your room?

@bender@twtxt.net Ta! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, made in Germany explains the prices. Surprisingly, buying via the reseller is much cheaper than purchasing it from the manufacturer directly. WTF. O_o

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, we’re pattern matching machines. :-) Only the trans5c preview looks like a brain to me. :-) Trans4 is a bacterium.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de They already do:

[…] These changes will apply to operations like cloning repositories over HTTPS […]

On a positive note: Finally time to get rid of as many Go dependencies as possible. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Just have a beeswax candle ready for sniffing. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de There are some real bangers in your collection! Aro3, the octopus, would look great on a wall.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de A quick search revealed https://www.tux-onlineshop.de/plueschtiere next door to you, but these tuxes look rather ugly. Also, shipping to the US&A is 60 bucks. I bet @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz’s sister can do better. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Has that hashing change even be accepted? :-?

Nice European greenfinch: https://lyse.isobeef.org/gruenfink-2025-05-10/

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz You don’t need to change the directory first in line 11, you can just create the directory, that’s sufficient since you’re having an absolute path.

The echo in line 13 is useless, you can simplify this to: newdir="$WD/$now" If you reversed this line with the previous one, you could make use of the variable in the directory creation: mkdir "$newdir".

In line 16, pull the directory change out of the loop upfront. The loop body doesn’t modify the working directory, so no need to reset it with each cycle. In fact, you could even spare the cd altogether when you simply tell find where to look: find "$basedir" -type f….

I didn’t try it, but if I read the manpage correctly, you should be able to simplify line 19 as well:

-C Change to DIR before performing any operations. This option is order-sensitive, i.e. it affects all options that follow.

Hence, remove the cd and put the -C "$WD" as the first argument to tar. Again, I didn’t try it. Proceed with caution.

Finally, you don’t need to specify the full path to rm in line 21. I bet, /bin is in your PATH. When you removed the previous cd from my last suggestion, the relative path that follows won’t work anymore. So, just use the absolute path that you already have in a variable: rm -rf "$newdir"

I hope you find this tiny review a wee bit useful. :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, I’m also having them in my repertoire for ages, so I’m used to the weird command line options. From today’s perspective, they’re not consistent with the rest of the typical shell utilities, that’s for sure.

Regarding find | grep foo, I recommend find -name '*foo*', prologic. Also, I regularly use -type d and -type f to find directories or files.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Nothing wrong with handwritten HTML. That’s often superior to generated stuff I believe. :-)
