@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ahh, ohh! Thanks! :D

Both of these scenarios is mindboggling – imagine such a world:

Gastornis species were very large birds that were traditionally thought to have been predators of various smaller mammals, such as ancient, diminutive equids. However, several lines of evidence, including the lack of hooked claws (in known Gastornis footprints), studies of their beak structure and isotopic signatures of their bones, have caused scientists to now consider that these birds were probably herbivorous, feeding on tough plant material and seeds.

If they ever invent a time machine, I wanna go back to the Dinos. 🦕

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 🥲

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org What is that crazy large Dino Chicken in 23.jpg? :D

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m planning to have a look. Soon. I hope.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks! Easy to read? Damn, I need to try harder. 🤪

@prologic@twtxt.net Is simply not buying it an option? Or is there too much social pressure?

Premature #FrakturFreitag. Had to practice the letter “F” and try a few variations.

😐

I love David Revoy’s comics: https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/miniFantasyTheater/069.html

@thecanine@twtxt.net I love it. %)

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Yeah, time flies. My last post was Friday, almost a week ago … Sigh.

Not super happy with today’s result, but it is what it is. #FrakturFreitag

@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm. I’d have to see this in action. 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Ah, so I can’t send you a patch / PR unless I host gitxt myself?

@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm. 🤔

Okay, suppose you host a project using this new forge, and I want to send a pull request. What do I have to do?

@prologic@twtxt.net Haha. 😅

I’m not really sure what you have in mind. All I can safe with relatively big confidence is that users hate having to make another account. That’s why GitHub/Codeberg are so successful: One account gives you access to millions of projects.

So, once that problem is solved, anything else will probably just fall into place … ? 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m really curious about that. 🤔🤔🤔

@david@daiwei.me

I wish I knew

Just give it a go. This stuff is super cheap. All you need is a “pen”, some nibs, ink, and paper. Costs like 20-30 bucks and lasts for several years. The hardest part is finding good paper, really, because most paper these days isn’t made for ink anymore. 🥴

And since social media is always only full of good results, here’s something “shitty”:

These are my first experiments in 2016 – and that’s after having practiced with a graphics tablet on a PC for a couple of weeks. 😅

FTR, I’m seeing veeeeeeeeery few actual git clone operations in the logs. Most crawlers simply don’t do that and rely on the Git history being available as HTML pages.

So that’s a win. (For now.)

@prologic@twtxt.net Confirmation bias? Explain. 🤔 I mean, I know what confirmation bias is, but I don’t understand it in this context. 😅

Is it just me or has “The Internet” become extremely boring in the last few months?

@thecanine@twtxt.net Double standards and cognitive dissonance are great, aren’t they? 🙄

(My favorite line last week came from one of those hardcore AI bros: “Awww, man, hardware has gotten so expensive, everything sold out, this really sucks … *Thanks, nVidia.*“ 🤦‍♀️)

thx 🥴

Started doing “Fraktur Freitag” last week on Mastodon, and why not post it here as well. (“Blackletter Friday”? Doesn’t work in English. 🤪)

I want to make this a weekly thing, but I obviously cannot guarantee it. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org wth is 26.jpg? 🤨

@arne@uplegger.eu https://movq.de/v/f4336262a1/da-muss-man-aber-seinen-kopf-ein-bisschen-drehen.mp4

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Wheather yesterday was horrible. And today it’s super humid. 🤪

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com I still have the movie in my archive. It’s a “TV capture” from 20 years ago, in German, super low resolution, noisy, … 🤪

Despite the shitty quality, the file is 1.1 GB large. Video codecs were really bad back then.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nattfödd was the last album I heard / bought. I liked Katla and Wilska as singers (saw them live with Wilska, that was a ton of fun), but then they switched again and the new guy wasn’t really my thing. Maybe I should check them again. 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org “Festival light”, huh? 😅

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com I gotta re-watch that movie. Loved it back then. 😃

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Huh, didn’t expect that. :-D

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I take it you also know their acoustic album “Visor om Slutet”? I love that one. 😍

@arne@uplegger.eu @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Je öfter man die hört, desto besser werden’se. 🤣 Passt perfekt in den Zeitgeist, dieses Chaos. (Pardon, „Mikrotonalität“.)

Und handwerklich echt beeindruckend.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, no, I haven’t really played anything in a couple of months. 😢

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org But I wannaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. 😭

Let’s see how this goes: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2065883

It just happened with twtxt.net as well! 🥳

Old school Finntroll (1999) 🥳

It’s the little things that make me happy these days. Like adding a function to search for text with various encodings to my hex editor. All neatly organized in the menu and with accelerators.

Just saw it happen on Mastodon, so I think that scrolling is simply broken in Firefox. ☠️

FTR, also happens with Openbox on X11 and with labwc on Wayland, so this isn’t related to my custom X11 window manager.

Oh god … this appears to be related to the input device? Using the scrollbar is fine but using the mouse wheel is not? https://movq.de/v/66db24e1ee/vid-1787378419.mp4

Emptied the CSS, removed the <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">, now it’s just plain HTML and it still happens.

There is this extremely annoying issue with my website:

https://movq.de/v/4acced3c8e/scroll.mp4

Notice how I’m scrolling, then switching to another tab, switching back, and then the scrolling position is different?

What the hell could cause this? It’s not always like this and I have only seen it in Firefox so far (but I very rarely use Chromium anyway), and this really happens a lot on my site but not on others.

Any ideas? Did I screw up the CSS somehow? 🤔

@arne@uplegger.eu They’re everywhere, send help

@arne@uplegger.eu Einfach so als Wahlergebnis verkünden. Dann denken die alle: „Ach, Mist, wie blöd, schon zu spät, na dann muss ich ja nicht mehr hin.“ Fertig. ✅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh yeah, going full Prinzessin Müllabfuhr! 🥳 👸

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I don’t do it that often, either. But when I do, I always wanted to have such a tool. :-) And since it turned out super easy to “implement” … Why not.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org These look extra great with redshift enabled. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Not that often – except for the last few months. 😅 I was reorganizing lots of repos, merging them, splitting them, changing author names, whatever. Having an empty root commit was super handy (if there was one).

@thecanine@twtxt.net haha https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_be_evil
