@arne@uplegger.eu Wohl bekomms!

@arne@uplegger.eu Auweia, was ein absoluter Saftladen. Unfassbar.

@arne@uplegger.eu @movq@www.uninformativ.de Wurde dann doch noch ein wenig anstrengend gegen Ende hin. Für mal so zwischendurch geht’s. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Fingers crossed!

@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

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Haha 😆 Don’t temp me 😅

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com I have the Atari800 emulator installed on my laptop along with a copy of the game.

But the easiest way to try it now is probably via the Internet Archive, which allows you to play it in the browser: https://archive.org/details/a8b_M.U.L.E._1983_Electronic_Arts_US

The manual is there, too: https://archive.org/download/agm_mule/mule_text.pdf

@prologic@twtxt.net Now, you just gotta program it yourself. :-) Back in the days, my mates and I were playing Minetest, an open source variant thereof. Turns out it has been renamed: https://www.luanti.org/en/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I really thought you were playing the bass part, but this is just a picture of the CD cover. :‘-D I’ve got this in my collection as well. It’s good shit!

@arne@uplegger.eu @movq@www.uninformativ.de Ui, heiße Kostüme! Und klingt gar nicht schlecht. Je länger ich es anhör, desto besser gefällt es mir. Nur die „Ansagen“ und den „Gesang“ – oder was auch immer das Geschepper sein soll – bräucht es wirklich nicht.

Old school Finntroll (1999) 🥳

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Nice job, looking good! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de YOU SHALL NOT SCROLL!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha, auch ne Idee! :-D Muss man nur aufpassen, dass das dann nicht das Ölkännchen für das Wahlbetrugsfeuer wird.

@jastas@twtpub.com Out of curiosity, was it hard to figure that out, or just familiarity with the app? 🤔

@jastas@twtpub.com That’s me! 👋 Haha 😆 Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 🙌

@fossham@twtpub.com Hey 👋 Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 👌

@smmbear@twtpub.com Hey 👋 Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 👌 Just in case you are not ware a) spam is not really tolerated by this community and b) doesn’t work anyway, you’ll just be ignored, and there are exactly zero ways to promote spam or advertise on this social system – on purpose.

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.

For the first time in probably 30 years, I played a game of M.U.L.E. tonight (and won!).

Granted, it was a beginner-level game, with a beginner-level alien against 3 computer players, but… I’m just sayin’.

I even lost one of my tracts of land due to it not being “recorded”, and I still won.

Take that, Mechtrons!

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net That set is the set of users that actually interact with one another. The “Twtxt” feed set is a bit larger, but mostly just “walls of posts” and little to no inteaction. So yeah, the real community is quite small sadly 😅

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

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? 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Their stance makes absolute sense to me, given their stated objectives, and they make some really great points. Thanks for sharing that.

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net What do you mean, it’s the most people we’ve ever had… since Jul 11, when the search site was relaunched. 😁

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s a clever idea - I had never considered adding an empty commit before, but I can see the value.

@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! 🥳 👸

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, even switching to Princess Garbage Disposal for real. :-O Sorry, mate, I really could not resit. ;-) Happy sp^Hummer cleaning!

@arne@uplegger.eu Dann müssten bloß noch die anderen auch so abstimmen. Viel Glück Euch, ihr werdet es brauchen.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de The best thing, it’s not far from reality. :-)

@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).

Crazy sick colors tonight: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2026-08-20/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-08-05/0/POSTING-en.html Very interesting! I basically never analyze binary files, but this were some great thoughts on that subject. I hope to remember them when I find myself in the situation to look at binaries more closely.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Regarding https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-08-16/0/POSTING-en.html, how often do you edit the first commit? A good mate does the same for at least a whole decade, probably more. I never found myself in this situation. Even though I mess with commits on a daily basis. Just never the first one so far. 8-)

Nice! https://blog.codeberg.org/protecting-our-floss-commons-from-llms.html

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com You weren’t/aren’t able to fin dmore open, less privacy evading “smartthings” ?

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net This is a good idea. I do something very simialr.

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

Real tired of doing these, but here’s another Android developers vs Google update, this time there’s both good and bad news.

The good:
-Users will be able to enable “sideloading” for all current and future devices, attached to their Google account, rather than having to undergo the tedious 24 hour wait including process, on each device.

-Rather than these changes to “sideloading” and “advanced workflows” being implemented at random different dates, in different countries, we’ll all get them come 2027.

The bad:
As GrapheneOS developers recently mentioned “Google replaced pushing Git tags for certain source code with obtaining source code via Google Drive after making a request through Google Forms. It’s completely ridiculous and they’ve gradually become very slow at handling requests. They’re in clear violation of the GPLv2 now.”

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com What kind of IoT devices are we talking about here?

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Turns out, it’s not a cool project. :-D

Can you build from source? Perhaps not if there is just a download link.

It’s been a hot minute since I last used alien to convert a Debian package into an RPM packge. Or was it the other way around? No clue.

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net I hear you! haha

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ta!

@david@daiwei.me I noticed Boy Boy have a lot of gems. :-D
