Or it is something else? Awesome pics, Lyse! Some oldies I missed (the lady), and some pretty cool new ones. I can’t get enough of nature pics!

My mate and I hiked up the backyard mountain. We got 25°C and quite some wind, so it was actually not too terrible. The wind could have blown harder or the temps a little lower, but oh well.

I saw the squirrel’s bushy tail stick up on the forest floor in the sunlight and immediately thought of this cute little feller. Since it didn’t move at all, even when we came closer, I got irritated and reconsidered that it might actually be some kind of dried up farn. But then we also were able to see its body. Unfortunately, the squirrel ran up the tree too quickly, so all the shots are kinda crap.

At one flower spot, there were sooo many butterflies, wasps, flies, bugs and other insects. The botanic was completely crowded.

The workers were transferring logs from one log truck to the other in a parking lot. I’ve never seen this happening before. When we passed the same place on the way home, they had moved logs into a sea container. That was surprising. This semi wasn’t there on the way there. One log was probably too long and sticking out the container, so they probably had to wait for somebody to return with a chainsaw. Crazy that they’re shipping logs from here probably overseas. Why else would they put them in a sea container?

After our first break, a blackbird was really posing for us with his worm in the dark shade.

Today was my first time I ever saw a hummingbird hawk-moth (TaubenschwÀnzchen) for real. My mate photographed them many, many times before, but I never came across one myself. So, that was really special.

The forest service installed an outdoor table with two benches next to the timber lion, that was cool to see. We sat down for a few minutes and enjoyed both the view into the Fils valley and ant on the tabletop, but the sun was beating down too heavily on us, so we had to move on.

All in all, it was a very nice few hours long hike. Enjoy! https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2026-07-03/

I just read @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz’s blog post over here:

https://bubblegum.girlonthemoon.xyz/articles/learning-to-code-like-it-s-the-90s

Jesus, it must be so overwhelming for young people to get started with programming.

When I started programming, there was the built-in ROM BASIC of that PC and probably a bit of BASIC on a floppy, and that was it. Nowadays? Millions of libraries and frameworks and languages and what not – and, much worse, there’s the expectation that you need to make something fancy. When I started, printing something and understanding IF was good enough.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org This apparently depends on the program now 
 Some Qt6 programs still allow that, others don’t. I can’t remember if GTK ever had that feature. đŸ€” But yeah, this whole “move stuff around as you please”-mentality is mostly gone.

I know I keep referring to StarOffice 3.1 a lot, but it’s just such a good example for all these things. All the toolbars and panels could be rearranged:

(This is running in Wine, btw.)

LibreOffice is the descendant of StarOffice and it doesn’t support anything like that anymore.

Maybe it was deemed too confusing for users? “Oh no, I mis-clicked something and now that bar is gone! How do I get it back? I don’t even know what it’s called!” đŸ€”

↳ In-reply-to » Apologies for the late #caturday post, but I figure it's more of a state of mind, like that time Shadow temporarily "borrowed" the dog bed (and discovered how comfy a blanket pile can be)...

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It varies
 We tend to prefer bowtie collars for all of our little boys, but they like to wrestle sometimes, and since they’re indoor-only, they can go for months without collars at all.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Die “2000” bezieht sich auf das Jahr. Darin befinden sich zwölf Ausgaben aus dem Jahr. Das “Mecklenburg Magazin” ist mir bisher gar nicht unter gekommen. Gibt’s wohl schon seit 1990.

@arne@uplegger.eu Ist die Zahl 2000 ein Verweis auf das Erscheinungsjahr oder einfach nur eine fortlaufende Nummerierung der Zeitungsausgabe und bei Erreichen der zweitausendsten Ausgabe dann als Bonus beigelegen? Frohes Schmökern!
