Hey, folks. Sorry to disappear for the last couple of weeks.

Last weekend, I took the family to Atlanta, GA for a visit to the Georgia Aquarium and the Center for Puppetry Arts, both of which were fantastic (pics forthcoming). Unfortunately, amongst the souvenirs we brought home was the worst sickness my wife and I have had in years, which basically laid us both out until Thursday, and we’ve been recovering since.

On top of it, just before we left, I accidentally broke TwtStrm (my WIP TwtTxt reader), so I didn’t even have a functional way to keep up with the only “social media platform” I actually give a hoot about (nor a functional brain to try and fix it).

As of this morning, though, I’m happy to report that we’re basically all better, and TwtStrm is back to working. I’m actually hoping to get some code written this weekend (and maybe even try to get Parley running), but we’ll see how things go. 🙂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh yeah, very interesting. Thanks for telling us!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ah, I see. Didn’t cross my mind to use Inkscape for that. I hope to remember this once I run into a similar situation.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, some letters are really unreadable. And I always, always read the “s” as an “f”. Every time.

Yeah, I find it telling when Nazis use Fraktur. Very interesting, I wasn’t aware that occupied regions couldn’t read the orders.

That was an interesting read about C:

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Might be because the typical “German Fraktur” (this isn’t a thing) uses very unusual uppercase letters. And “k” is just weird. And “f” and “ſ” (long “s”) are very close together.

This is “Luther’sche Fraktur” from around 1708 (a photo from the book “Fraktur” by Albert Kapr), the book says this was one of the most popular ones:

I have lots of trouble deciphering those uppercase letters.

By the way, this is worth mentioning: Fraktur fonts are often associated with Nazi Germany, but did you know that the Nazis eventually banned these fonts in 1941?

Yeah. Typical Nazi stuff.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Coloring wasn’t too bad, I did it in Inkscape where I can easily move those rectangles around. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s dedication. And it really shows. Again, your font is easier to read for me than the average Fraktur I come across. I don’t really understand it, but I trip more often in books.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de One more human to add, I just got to read it. Cool stuff, coloring in these hexdumps by hand must have been a ton of work, my goodness. Much appreciated, though. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks. 😅 I didn’t check the time, but I guess something between 15 and 30 minutes? 🤔

@david@daiwei.me The “e” in “tired” and the “a” in “that”. 🥴

@movq@www.uninformativ.de :-(

@movq@www.uninformativ.de The tax inspector is here.

@prologic@twtxt.net Voyeur! :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net Still enjoy nevertheless!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I like it! Even the accidents. So pretty! How long did it take you to write this?

@david@daiwei.me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@david@daiwei.me But it was on the side of the road!!! and she had her pants around her ankles, stark naked for all passing traffic to see ad she did a shit!!! 💩

@david@daiwei.me yea but it’s very windy, uncomfortably so and very crowded 🤯

we’re here now 👌

You know that I’m “Prinzessin Müllabfuhr”, but the English translation isn’t that great.

So, I’m going by “Princess Dumpsterfire” now.

(I’m forced to use this shit at work.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Helloooo! 🐦‍⬛

@prologic@twtxt.net A person? Pooping on the street? Yikes.

As my wife was driving and towing us us to our final destination.. Just before a little locality called Mount Larcom, we went past a soan on the side of the road doing a full dump! 🤯 💩 So disgusting 😢

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wahrscheinlich, aber ich find das klasse. :-)

Magpie:

Oops. Pay closer attention next time. I accidentally made some art, I guess:

@arne@uplegger.eu Hahaha, die sind echt urkomisch, großartig! :‘-D

Werwolfpisse, ich lach mich schlapp! :’-D

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s a good looking rig you have at a nice spot. I also really love the bark texture of these gum trees. Keep the pics coming. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh, lovely. 🥳

@arne@uplegger.eu Entschuldige, aber auf Rechtschreibfehler hinzuweisen, ist vermutlich das deutscheste, was ein Mensch tun kann. 😂

@arne@uplegger.eu (Hey, no kink shaming.)

@david@daiwei.me @prologic@twtxt.net Hahaha, thanks! :-D

Stop over in a place called Gin Gin 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org very nice 👌

Someone spilled the paintbox across the sky: https://lyse.isobeef.org/2026-09-23-abendhimmel/

@prologic@twtxt.net I expected Yeppoon to be way more north. :-D But it’s indeed north of you. Have fun! The weather forecast doesn’t sound too bad.

@arne@uplegger.eu Geil! Jetzt bin ich aber auf Deine Geschichten zum Sprachwirrwarr gespannt. Erzähl. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Currently, yarnd links @david@daiwei.me’s mention to /external?uri=… that results in an HTTP 404 “Cannot find external feed”. I reckon no user on this yarnd is subscribed to @mlot@tilde.club’s feed, hence there’s nothing to show. Just fetching the feed on demand of course isn’t an option for privacy and security reasons, at least not for anonymous users. However, in my opinion it would be better if the link pointed to the raw feed URL instead.

Hahaha, @david@daiwei.me! Why did the duck go to jail?

echo Zm9yIHNlbGxpbmcgcXVhY2sK | base64 -d

@david@daiwei.me I’ve added in a little exception to the WAF, if it doesn’t work (at least until I figure why the hell are twtxt-app requests getting caught up in my Known Bad Actors rule in the first place), then I’ll have to tear the whole thing down and redo it from scratch.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Suddenly makes David versus Goliath much more believable.

Just a very regular sunset, nothing special: https://lyse.isobeef.org/2026-09-22-abendhimmel/

@david@daiwei.me Hmmmm²

It’s a sunn o)))-y day.

So, this is happening:

And this:

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com He’s asleep by now 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org unfortunately, you’ve guessed right.
