I’m now going to delete 7,336 old photos (previews, resized web versions and index.htmls) and reclaim 3.3 GiB disk space on my laptop.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Cool! Does it still run on your machine? :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hmmm, that indeed surprises me, too. Looks like I live in a moorhen shortage area. Even ducks and geese are not all that common. But then also, there aren’t any substantially sized lakes around here. Just a few smaller ponds, which I don’t visit all that often.

@quark@ferengi.one Ta. Hmm, what’s wrong with the blue text color? Is it too dark on the black background for you? :-?

Normal links are blue while images are teal. I thought I differentiate the two if I easily can. The underline of URLs comes from my terminal and is not tt’s fault.

Configuring colors is in the todo list. But of course, providing a sane default is definitely something I’d like to have.

@bender@twtxt.net Let’s start a counter penguin feed! Or something along those whiskers. Should also at least mentally help with the heat.

@quark@ferengi.one Oh boy. Glad you survived.

@quark@ferengi.one LOL! :-D

There ya go, @quark@ferengi.one, these are the two most important views.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I’m glad to hear that you don’t find it too terrible. :-) There are still heaps of bugs to fix and things to improve. Bucketloads of them.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @movq@www.uninformativ.de A Tux improves the life. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thanks. It’s already over, the heat got us. :-(

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Kein Muckefuck, wohl bekomms. :-)

Once again, I went on a hike onto my backyard mountain after calling it quits very late. This time I brought my cam along. The view was extremely hazy, but the setting sunlight resulted in cool colors. The freshly cut grass smelled wonderful.

I saw a flock of pidgeons circling around and some sort of rat or mouse quickly running over the road in front of me from one field into the next one with a giant nut in its mouth. Or so I at least believe, couldn’t really tell, it happened so fast.

A couple enjoyed the setting sun on a bench and stripped their shoes on this warm evening. Somebody forget their bottle of water on the summit, but it looked rather cool in the evening light:

Not sure what they’re doing, but they now set up scaffolding at the ruin. I heavily doubt it, but it would be cool if they rebuilt the castle. :-)

On the way back I met up with a mate who couldn’t come along right from the beginning. We saw two deer on the meadow, but it was already too dark for my camera, the photos were totally rubbish. The sunset turned really pretty and colorful just in time when I reached home. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-06-10/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s cool! I think I never ran across a moorhen in the wild. Nor such a goose, just the “normal” ones. I should maybe try to sit on a watch to shoot some birds. With my cam, not a rifle of course. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Heck yeah, these are some brilliant shots! Where did you spot the goose and moorhen?

Speaking of fantastic and inspiring things, Epic Upcycling makes a wonderful desk from pallet wood and scrap metal: https://youtu.be/hY1-5PtJPo8 So relaxing to watch. I wanna make one so bad, too. I guess I start with the plane rack, though.

Fuck me, this is soooo bloody amazing! :-) I absolutely love watching the iterations on Primitive Technology’s belt and pully blower: https://youtu.be/1799Rqn71A8 It’s just so dang cool and really inspiring. This wants me do something similar so hard. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting, didn’t know that.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Very rarely does it happen. Yup, the clouds are to praise for today’s spectacle. Surpringly, the pink is fairly close to how it actually looked in person. I was pleased to see that. The neon orange in front of the grayish sky was way cooler, though. I wish I could close the aperture on my camera in the hope of capturing the insane color. Oh well.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I didn’t even know about the internet back then. Might have been just around that time we got our very first second-hand computer.

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.

https://jvns.ca/blog/2024/11/26/terminal-rules/#rule-5-vaguely-support-readline-keybindings

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. :-)
