@prologic@twtxt.net these sound so fun! i’m all for them

@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm, speaking of locally running “AI” stuff: Someone on Mastodon has this in their profile description:

My profile pic is AI modified to prevent deepfakes. I used local Stable Diffusion on my solar powered 7900XTX to average a few selfies.

That sounds like a fun thing to do. Do I have a chance of doing that on my old box from 2013 without a dedicated GPU? 😂

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz well gamja works fine and all with other people’s networks but I WANT MY OWN LITTLE NETWORK. FOR FUN

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Sounds like a lot of fun ! 😁 GOOD LUCK!

@prologic@twtxt.net This shi_ is as fun as it is frustrating! 😆 the bot is poking at me from a different ASN now, Alibaba’s.

1. Short term solution: I’ve geo-locked my Timeline instance since I’m the only one using it (and I only do so for reading twts when I’m away from terminal).
   
2. Long term: I took a look at your Caddy WAF but couldn’t figure things out on my own; until then, I’ll be poking at Caddy-Defender, maybe throw in a Crowdsec for lols… #FUN

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i JUST want my own IRC server for fun. that is all i want

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com tempus fugit when you are having fun! Happy 1st Twtxtversary!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com oh yeah! You will feel in heaven, me thinks, because that new machine will go around the Pi a few laps. Have fun, mate!

It’s all fun and games until somebody loses their retirement savings

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz these are my little SSH services by the way - a git server and then some fun stuff!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com REALLLL you got this!!!!!! the fun will come soon!!!!!

Today, we had a cleanup day with the scouts. I estimate that we ended up with about half a metric ton of rubbish. Despite the heat it was really great fun.

@thecanine@twtxt.net for what is worth, I don’t think @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org intention was to insinuate your website sucked (though it may well do, but again, not his intent, I am sure). I see it more like a technical jest, and a good one at it. It was fun! Isn’t that the intent of April Fools’, after all?

yeah! I’ve passed the critical point at factorio… I managed to automate blue science, trains and oil production… now it’s a great fun again…

Yes! this is fun 😆

fun run… broke it up in 5km segments. around 14 miles in started to just take it a bit easier because the legs just got a bit tired. pretty good for crap sleep and/or rest.

i really wanna learn golang it looks fun and capable and i can read it kind of but every time i try it i’m immediately stuck on basic concepts like “what the fuck is a pointer” (this has been explained to me and i still don’t get it). i did have types explained to me as like notes on code which makes sense a bit but i’m mostly lost on basic code concepts

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hahahah i for one hate sleeping and need to be busy 24/7 or else i go insane so server stuff is awesome for my ADHD ass!!!

IaaS does seem kinda interesting to me, i think i could vibe with that more than full on cloud stuff

i hope i can be one of those people who does the barebones stuff bc i am a rare sicko who finds it fun and cloud stuff scares me LMAOOOO

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh yeah i use the CLI sometimes it’s fun af

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Using full-blown Cloud services is good for old people like me who don’t want to do on-call duty when a disk fails. 😂 I like sleep! 😂

Jokes aside, I like IaaS as a middle ground. There are IaaS hosters who allow you to spin up VMs as you wish and connect them in a network as you wish. You get direct access to all those Linux boxes and to a layer 2 network, so you can do all the fun networking stuff like BGP, VRRP, IPSec/Wireguard, whatever. And you never have to worry about failing disks, server racks getting full, cable management, all that. 😅

I’m confident that we will always need people who do bare-bones or “low-level” stuff instead of just click some Cloud service. I guess that smaller companies don’t use Cloud services very often (because it’s way too expensive for them).

i wonder if i could make a little yarn widget for my site to show my last post. that’d be fun. sadly i do not know javascript

i have got to try the jenny yarn client it looks so fun and old school……..

@movq@www.uninformativ.de nice!!! i wanna try snac it looks sooo fun

I got to watch “The Hitman’s Bodyguard” (2017) for the Nth time earlier today. it is still a fun thing to watch, the only problem is, now I am stuck with Samuel L. Jackson singing his “Bevilo Tutto, Bevilo Tutto, Bevilo Bevilo Bevilo Tutto…” song with the nuns, again and again in my head 🤣 … But hey, I’ve learned two Italian words today.

@nff@www.noizhardware.com Nice! Yeah, it’s all about having fun. :-) The simplicity got me hooked. Happy hacking!

Had some fun with my old Mandelbrot renderer: https://movq.de/v/83110057f5/

NES86: x86 emulation on the NES
The goal of this project is to emulate an Intel 8086 processor and supporting PC hardware well enough to run the Embeddable Linux Kernel Subset (ELKS), including a shell and utilities. It should be possible to run other x86 software as long as it doesn’t require more than a simple serial terminal. ↫ NES86 GitHub page Is this useful in any meaningful sense? No. Will this change the word? No. Does it have any other purpose than just being fun and cool? Nope. None of that … ⌘ Read more

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed it. The beginning part about the history of life on Earth was fun to watch having just read Dawkin’s old book The Selfish Geene, and now I want to read more about archaea. The end of the talk about what might be going on on Mars made me a bit hopeful someone will find some good evidence.

PS: Please forgive me. I’m just being a really grumpy bastarda the last couple of days. I’m really not having a lot of fun this past week 😢

i haven’t talked fandom here much let’s change that. i might re-run my DC comics ficathon again. i ran it late december through to the end of february last year and it was fun af even if it moved slowly. kinda wanna run it again but i don’t wanna have to promote it.

fucking cold! 39F out there and ran with three layers on. first 30 minutes there was a good rain. for the most part it was an easy run and was fun to combat the cold and rain which is not common here.

Simplifying my online presence further by removing my Known site. Goodbye social.johanbove.info - it was sometimes a little fun.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org OMGGGG I’M BRINGING AKB TO YARN LET’S GOOOOO!!!! SO glad you like them they make bangers!!!!! super catchy and fun <333

@movq@www.uninformativ.de we had a TON of fun omg my friends took a bit to learn the game then when they got it we got VICIOUS with each other it was so much fun lol

Listening to a playlist kat made for me 7 months ago. It’s fun!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Wrrrrrmmmmm, wrrrrmmm, have fun! I think I played that about 15 years ago last time or so. I never was much of a gamer, always loved to code useless stuff instead. :-D

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz definitely a fun way to get better at bash scripting by hand (AKA learn how it works besides the extreme basics i know) and use gum to make them cute too

been playing with making fun scripts using charm CLI’s gum library :P

one that gets lyrics from an open lyrics database’s API and accepts input for artist & song names: https://asciinema.org/a/697860

and one that uses a user-provided last.fm API key to pull what’s currently playing or what last played on your account :) https://asciinema.org/a/697874

Hmm, I just noticed that the feed template seems to be broken on your yarnd instance, @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz. Looking at your raw feed file (and your mates as well), line 6 reads:

# This is hosted by a Yarn.social pod yarn running yarnd ERSION@OMMIT  go1.23.4
                                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Looks like the first letters of the version and commit got somehow chopped off. I’ve no idea what happened here, maybe @prologic@twtxt.net knows something. :-? I’m not familiar with the templating, I just recall @xuu@txt.sour.is reporting in IRC the other day that he’s also having great fun with his custom preamble from time to time.

That “broken” comment doesn’t hurt anything, it’s still a proper comment and hence ignored by clients. It’s just odd, that’s all.

The editor can launch a new shell now:

https://movq.de/v/6ec68b50dd/los86-edit-shell.mp4

Trivial to implement but super useful. It allows for simple but meaningful dev cycles: Edit source code, run/test it, back to editor. That’s what I do in the video.

(The Brainfuck program is silly, but I got nothing else at the moment.)

The I/O cache is also getting better. All that back and forth doesn’t hit the disk at all, once cached.

This whole thing is much more fun and interesting when you run it from a real floppy disk. It’s a 5.25” floppy in the video (so it’s actually floppy 😅). Disk seek times can be catastrophic and you don’t notice any of this on modern disks.

Wow, GtS keeps getting better! Re: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/domain_permission_subscriptions/#fun-stuff-to-do-with-domain-permission-subscriptions

Yeah, @bender@twtxt.net, I absolutely love it! :-D Monty Python just rocks!

This very knight inspired me to make myself a knight helmet with opening visor out of an old washing machine sheet metal years ago for a theater play. It was really great fun, both making the helmet as well as using it during the week in the play as a silly and shady prince who got all his tracts of land by winning dubious games.

I just couldn’t really hear very well in it. And if somebody hit me on the head or just slightly knocked on the helmet, it was incredibly loud. No fine craftmanship by any means and obviously historically extremely questionable at best, but it did the job well enough. One of the running gags was that I had to open the visor when I wanted to talk. Here are some photos in action, you’ll find many more when surfing through the gallery:

• https://wawuwo.de/2016/woche2/freitag/036.html#image In one lunch break my page and I decided to dress up and play a game of dice against the kids. However, we used badly cogged dice. We just added a few dots of paint on one of the two dice, so that it had two fours, two fives and two sixes or something like that. I always told my opponents: “You can choose whatever dice you want. Except for the red one, that’s my lucky dice!” As well-behaved children, they then selected the blue, unbiased one. And usually lost. However, I remember there was one kid that beat me with four sixes in row. :-D Although we thought, we make it halfway obvious that this game is truly not fair, it took them extremely long to figure out that we had messed with my lucky dice. When they finally did, they got super angry. Some of them were on the brink of beating me up. That was really nice to see their sense of justice kick it. :-)

Oh, to live in a cozy cabin on a hill, spending my days laying in the grass & birdwatching. The dream. Brushing ants & ticks off me isn’t fun, but I’d be willing to sacrifice.

I’m back on my “optimizing my life” arc. It’s not fun but I guess I got to, smh 🙄
