@prologic@twtxt.net Heey⦠Welcome back!! š«” How was the trip? I Hope youāve had a good time!
@prologic@twtxt.net I like the last two, on the first three you sent. I looked up āCanarvon Gorgeā, and read more about it. Thanks for introducing me to it!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha, I love them! :-D
@prologic@twtxt.net This looks really nice! I love the view. For a brief second, the rock in the left bottom corner of the first photo reminded me of a croc tail. These are some massive cliffs, I get the impression that walking down there feels cool during the heat. Yeah, itās winter over there, but it cooled me off by just looking at it. :-) Oh no, somebody lost their hat.
A few moreā¦
As promised, hereās some photos of love you!! camping trip to Canarcon George in QLD, Australia.
Heck yeah, Iāve been a firefly taxi again! \o/ One landed on my hiking boot and rode along a few meters. It then took off on its own without me having to help it. I saw easily a thousand glowing individuals tonight, bloody cool. :-)
Ted Unangstās snarky (and entertaining) remarks this month:
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I first wondered how the lists could be ever improved, but then b.png shows the better approach with the inset boxes on the left. No surprises there. Very clearly communicated.
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ah! I see there is now some competition going on between the Tux avatars. ;-)
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thatās an interesting concept I never heard of before. Though, as a German, my data protection kicks in. ;-)
These are lists in your Inkscape example, right?
The font stuff? Yeah, thatās a scrollable list where you can select the current font.
Someone did a thing:
https://social.treehouse.systems/@ariadne/114763322251054485
Iāve been silently wondering all the time if this was possible, but never investigated: Keep doing X11 but use Wayland as a backend.
This uses XWaylandās ārootfulā mode, which basically just gives you a normal Wayland window with all the X11 stuff happening inside of it:
https://www.phoronix.com/news/XWayland-Rootful-Useful
In other words, put such a window in fullscreen and you (more or less) have good old X11 running in a Wayland window.
(For me, personally, this wonāt be the way forward. But itās a very interesting project.)
we should bring back XFN that is the cutest shit in the world i want to link to my friends and have the internet know they are my friends through the markup!!!!!!!!!!!
@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club so real lol
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org iāve been playing with h-card stuff lately! got one marked up and validated with indiewebifyme and it all checks out :D you can see it on my about page at the bottom
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Which one(s) are you looking right now?
@prologic@twtxt.net hello!!!
@prologic@twtxt.net Oh cool, completely disconnected is the best! Looking forward to the photos. :-)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de We did indeed! š Iāll share photos soon⢠š Was completely āoff-gridā, no connectivity to anything anywhere š¤£
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, the crash killed it.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yes, flat UIs are broken! Iām used to that by now, but itās still more work to recognize than when there are borders around buttons, etc.
These are lists in your Inkscape example, right? (Iām too lazy to start Inkscape myself and look at it. And writing this took longer than just seeing for myself, but here we are. I met up with one of my best schoolmate this morning and itās fucking hot already. So I blame the heat.) Nested tabs are probably an own death sin in itself. I know, I know, the upper ones can be made into windows and dragged around, but still.
@prologic@twtxt.net Heyho, welcome back. š Did you guys have a nice trip? š
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Probably. :-) I just saw that the account on Yarn is also gone. Maybe it didnāt survive the crash earlier this year.
Just realized: One of the reasons why I donāt like āflat UIsā is that they look broken to me. Like the program has a bug, missing pixmaps or whatever.
Take this for example:
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/a.png
Iām talking about this area specifically:
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/a%2Dhigh.png
One UI element ends and the other one begins ā no ātransitionā between them.
The style of old UIs like these two is deeply ingrained into my brain:
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/b.png
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/c.png
When all these little elements (borders, handles, even just simple lines, ā¦) are no longer present, then the program looks buggy and broken to me. And Iām not sure if Iāll ever be able to un-learn that.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, itās been a while. Didnāt feel this long, though. Not at all, Iām quite surprised. :-O
But like with every quality content, there is no publishing schedule. Eventually, @mckinley@mckinley.cc will write another article for all of us. :-)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Wow. Just like Skyrim! š
@mckinley@mckinley.ccās blog appears to have gone stale, hm.
Thanks @bender@twtxt.net! Yeah, so super cute. I couldnāt pet them, though. Despite very curious, they were also very restless.
I persuaded my dad to check out the fireflies with me tonight. He only wanted to go for a short trip, so we came just across a couple hundred of them. Otherwise, the thousands mark would have been exceeded in no time. He was super glad I talked him into that. :-)
It was also my first time to see them over the meadows. Those numbers donāt compare to the ones inside the forest, no question, but we probably saw 60 or so. Havenāt come across them there before, I only heard and read about that.
Note to future-Lyse next year: Leaving at 21:45 seems like a good time. We left earlier and had to wait just a few more minutes for them to come out in masses.
Too bad itās impossible to share photos or videos. My camera isnāt made for that at all, not even close.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org such a beautiful goooooooat! Those eye, and the ear I would love to pet⦠Nice click, mate!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org itās so bad!!!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Itās awful, ājustā 32°C here. When I rode my bike into town I came across some spots where the heat was stationary built up and really intense. The airflow felt like the sauna attendant poured water over the heated rocks and severely fanned the hot air with his towel.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de That short segment is fairly close to reality, even though it obviously looks heaps better in person: https://youtu.be/u8YVorNRcDM?t=66
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh dear. š©
i love pinkpantheress so much sheās so cute and fun and tapped into every aesthetic and dance music sound i love. if you like house and garage and D&B music, check her out!!!! she absolutely knows her shit too btw sheās sampled basement jaxx and adam F

@thecanine@twtxt.net awww so cute and silly!!!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de OMG SLEEPY LITTLE GUY!!!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de itās sooo bad here on the east coast of the US omg 102F/38C heat here!!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I also donāt think that Iām a particularly good speaker. :-) The workshop model is a good idea, I like that.
Yeah, itās really good fun. I can highly recommend it. This is also a good way to train (new) developers to think like attackers, how to break in, destroy something or raise awareness of some classes of bugs. Then you can avoid them next time. Itās surprising to me what vulnerabilities come up during this event every time. So, absolutely worth it, win, win.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, really!? You should come visit. :-)
As far as I know females are sitting in the shrubs and males fly around, but theyāre not all that quick. They are slowly moving glowing dots that you can easily follow with your eyes. The bigger problem might be that they turn off and then on again. So, one could count duplicates. However, thereās typically a bit of distance between them (at least 30-50 cm Iād say, often more). Counting the same individual multiple times is not all that common (assuming that they donāt speed up when turned off). My counting was also conservative I believe.
Ah, Die Maus also covered them a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVGD5QEvtoc At the end, thereās a video were you can see the speeds a bit.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Tada, cool! :-)
@arne@uplegger.eu Stattdessen rutscht er seitlich vom Tisch? š¤Ŗ
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I can confidently say that I donāt remember ever having seen fireflys. (Nor Firefly.) š³ Iām most surprised that you could count them. Naively, I would assume that these guys move around a lot and youād lose track of them?
Welcome to the family, Puffy. š„³š”
After drawing the bigger canine stickers, I also want to change my profile picture for summer, to something more fluffy, shaded and a bit smug looking.
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz NEVER MIND WE ARE SO BACK MAMDANI WON
went to vote. got told i canāt vote because iām not registered. handed a form to fill out that i later learn is not in english.
go home and find out the problem is widespread among young voters like me.
fuck this country.
OH, FUCK ME DEAD! On the way home from todayās walk I saw easily 800 fireflies! Yes, over eight hundred! That was absolutely amazing. First time this year and already this many. Crazy! They were just fricking everywhere in the entire forest. I counted to one hundred and then stopped. The darker it got, the more fireflies came out and glowed around. :-) There were spots where in under ten seconds I counted 20 glowworms. Super sick. Soooo beautiful. <3
Before I left I tried to call a mate to join me, who apparently wasnāt home yet, though, didnāt pick up. But in the very end I surprisingly met her in the forest and we were super happy to encounter all the fireflies. She also said that today was her first time this year to spot them. Iāll definitely check them out in the next days, too.
Apart from all the glowworms, I also came across some goats, two deer (one of which only the ears showing out of the grass), according to the sounds I sadly must have scared up four more, bucketloads of tadpoles, four big and very active anthills next to each other and three bats to finish the stroll off. I call that extremely successful.
There ya go: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-06-24/
Theyāre all talks, not real hands-on trainings like you did.
I love listening to good, well-structured talks. Problem is, not everybody is a good speaker and many screw it up. š„“ Iām certainly not a great speaker, which is why I gravitate more towards āworkshopsā, in the hopes that people ask questions and discussions arise. Doesnāt always work out. 𤣠At the very least, I almost always have some other person connect to the projector/beamer/screenshare and then they do the stuff ā this avoids me being wwwwaaaaaaaaayyyy too fast.
We are usually drowned in stress and tight deadlines, hence events like today are super rare ⦠We used to do it more often until ~10 years ago.
Once a year the security guys organize a really great hacking event, though.
Oh dear, Iād love to participate in that. 𤯠That sounds like a lot of fun. (Why donāt we do this?!)
