@movq@www.uninformativ.de lovely, thanks for sharing! Now you know what I will be using today on a loop.
May I turn your attention to this timeless masterpiece:

@zvava@twtxt.net looking sweet!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @zvava@twtxt.net I think people get sick of everything changing all the time and so donāt bother adopting things to change when things are already good enough š¤·
@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de h.265 is from 13 years ago and support is still incredibly spotty (though it being proprietary probably has a lot to do with that)
also see: jpegxlās adoption (three or six years old depending how you quantify it) which afaik is mostly attributed to google deciding not to put it in chrome (though they changed their stance recently iirc (webp, of course, did not have this problem since it was pushed so hard by google (the browser wars never ended)))
really love this design language i borrowed from firefish/misskey v12, you can even select a bbycll theme in zinnia to make things even more confusing :3 though i myself somehow see past the similarities just knowing how different the codebases are

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, but isnāt it from 2010? No widespread adoption after 15 years? Is there that much inertia? š¤ On my box, everything just works ā browser, GIMP, ImageMagick, imlib2, ⦠š¤
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think WebP being new just hasnāt seen widespread adoption everywhere (yet) š§
my MIND is a MACHINE that turns ILLEGIBLE CODE into ILLEGIBLE CODE

@bender@twtxt.net on the way o7 Ā spent enough time away from the codebase
@zvava@twtxt.net come on, bbycll, come! :-P
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, no idea why that is. š¤
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice! š
We got a very colorful sunset today: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-12-09/
@prologic@twtxt.net Nice! And foggy as heck, very beautiful! Or is this smog?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de The terminal colors change quite drastically, but not the photo. Interesting.
Use more WebP, I guess.

@prologic@twtxt.net I like this one. Havenāt been to the Golden Bridge yet? Make sure you do!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh you are a brilliant man š


@prologic@twtxt.net Here you go:
(LTT = āLinus Tech Tipsā, thatās the host.)
LTT: There was a recent thing from a major tech company, where developers were asked to say how many lines of code they wrote ā and if it wasnāt enough, they were terminated. And there was someone here that was extremely upset about that approach to measuring productivity, becauseā
Torvalds: Oh yeah, no, you shouldnāt even be upset. At that point, thatās just incompetence. Anybody who thinks thatās a valid metric is too stupid to work at a tech company.
LTT: You do know who you just said that about, right?
Torvalds: No.
LTT: Oh. Uh, he was a prominent figure in the, uh, improved efficiency of the US government recently.
Torvalds: Oh. Apparently I was spot on.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de BahahahGG š¤£š¤£š¤£
@klaxzy@klaxzy.net do you know what I also find equally just as stupid and dumb is having to upgrade the software license on something just to be able to get OIDC or OAuth support ffs š¤¦āāļø
Fuck me, soooooooo beautiful! Awwww! :ā-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYfKgi133qo
This focuses more on the landscape part, other episodes also have amazing interactions with the locals. I cannot recommend the Itchy Boots channel enough. Itās in my top three channels of all time I believe. I hardly get the travel bug, but this has now changed. Watching Noralyās videos brings me great joy. It also shows humanity is not lost, contrary to what one might think in this crazy world. :-)
Caution, this channel gets very addictive!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de :ā-D
In case you havenāt seen it yet:

Linus Torvalds about SLOC as a measurement of productivity. š
git log. They simply donāt experience the pain that comes with bad commits / commit messages.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I reckon youāre right. There cannot be any other explanation.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I will check it out! Thanks so much
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org My theory is that these people simply donāt do ācode archeologyā. When something breaks, they donāt reach for git log. They simply donāt experience the pain that comes with bad commits / commit messages.
Or is that different in your company? š
@prologic@twtxt.net Ah, shit, you might be right. You can even buy these slot plates on Amazon. I didnāt even think to check Amazon, I went straight to eBay and tried to find it there, because I thought āitās so old, nobody is going to use that anymore, I need to buy second-handā. š¤¦š¤¦š¤¦
It really shows that I built my last PC so long ago ⦠I know next to nothing about current hardware. š¢
Weāll all my posts are making it to the āFediverseā https://bridge.twtxt.net/users/c350a5e5fb9d9457
@bender@twtxt.net iām just pointing out that itās one of those fundamental RS 232 standards that will never die š¤£
@prologic@twtxt.net why do you think thatās the case?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think even modern PC still come with serial ports they just donāt wire them up anymore right? Theyāre still there in the board itself, though just unwired.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same. :ā-( I just donāt get how people do code archeology with all their shit messages and huge commits changing a gazillion of different things. I always try to lead by setting good examples, but nofuckingbody is picking up on that. At all. Even when bringing this up every now and then.
@prologic@twtxt.net Well, you can associate your identity to the apex domain with a bit of Webfinger wizardry, but I donāt. Mine are always attached to the sub-domains. I find it easier to migrate between instances that way without risking borking federation.
Currently watching Stranger Things and all I can think of is this:

@prologic@twtxt.net Bwahahaha! I tried to establish some form of āconventionā for commit messages at work (not exactly what you linked to, though), but itās a lost cause. š Nobody is following any of that. Nobody wants to invest time in good commit messages. People just want to get stuff done.
Iām just glad that 80% are at least somewhat useful ā instead of āwipā or āshit i screwed upā.
My current PC is from 2013, so I never even bothered to check, but as it turns out: My motherboard still has a serial port. 𤯠I thought these had long died out by then. To be honest, I didnāt have the need for one, either, not until recently ⦠So I completely lost track if PCs have these things or not.
All I needed was one of those slot-cable-thingies. (And if the order of pins is correct, then it actually works. š¤¦)

Cool! One less USB device. š
This is an example of the kind of garbage release notes from this conventional commit autogenerated crap š¤£

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I couldnāt agree more! I think good commit messages are very useful, however, and Iād much prefer the conventional mood style for Commit messages, but rather prefer telling a story rather than this weird syntax all over the shop!
