In-reply-to » Hmmm are there really no decent Wayland (desktop) compatible image viewers that don't drag in Mesa and all it's hundreds of dependences or GCC and libgcc and it's multi-hour long build time or Rust? geez

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, Rust is quite popular in the Wayland scene, it seems.

In image viewer in 170 lines? Show me. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I looked into swagimg. That’s the thing, The latest version pulls in fark’n C++ (geez fuck) and luajit. Anything else I’ve round for Wayland depdns on Rust (wtf?!) – So I built my own in Pure Go. It’s wonderful, so simple, only ~170 lines of Go 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net The only image viewer I like in general is this one:

https://codeberg.org/nsxiv/nsxiv

It’s for X11, though.

Allegedly, this Wayland image viewer is somewhat similar to nsxiv, maybe you’ll like that? 🤔

In-reply-to » It’s ten thousand million degree celsius outside and I have to go to a birthday party today because wElL iTs My BiRtHdAy ToDaY, I think I’m going to die, send help.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It is horribly hot and humid here, and is not even 08:00. AC ran overnight for 3+ hours. It is going to be hellish, not going to lie.

Your birthday, or someone else’s? Either way, happy birthday! 🥳🎂 May many more years come, with good health… and less heat! ☺️

In-reply-to » @lyse oh yes! And, when I mow the lawn (which reminds me I need to mow the front soonish), you can add dust, bugs, and grass blades to the equation. Just “lovely”. 😂

@bender@twtxt.net Right, can’t think of anything more pleasing than that! If only I were a landscape gardener, I could enjoy that all day long. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Vorsicht, freilaufende Gewitter!

So ähnlich war’s zuvor auch. Weit ringsum absolut nix. Es regnet und donnert schon eine viertel Stunde, bis der Wetterbericht und das Regenradar dann auch umschalten und von dem laufenden Unwetter Kenntnis haben.

Ich gucke schon den ganzen Tag dem Storm Tracking zu und alle Gewitter in der Nähe haben sich kurz vor meinem Standort ausgeregnet oder sind abgedreht. 😭🥵

So I’ve been working on GoNIX the last few days… Which is derived from µLinux – At least it’s entire build process. GoNIX however has a 100% Go userland, including the init process, package and service management.

Now… As an experiment, because I was able to make much process on enhancing the build tools and package management, I decided to see if I could build a “Desktop” Gui of sorts…

I still wanted it to be fairly minimal and lightweight. So I went with wayland (of course) and labwc and yambar. So far I’m liking the result 👌 42 packages in the wayland-desktop meta port. Not too bad. Not sure if I can slim that down anymore… But trying to avoid Mesa/GL as that drags in far too much “cruft”.

haihaihiii! mbox.blue is awesome ;)

So nice of the very few folks that have discovered mbox to say such nice things about my little experimental project and free service offering 😁

In-reply-to » I went to check on the fireflies this season. But I didn't see any. Instead lots of moths. At first, I thought it might have been still too light, but it was already dark enough for me to miss and destroy a snail shell. Bummer. Maybe it was too wet tonight. Although, it's probably just another or two weeks until my glowing friends will finally show up.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Sounds lovely! (I think. Not sure about spider webs and such. 😅)

I woke up to 26°C this morning. 🥵

In-reply-to » @lyse Oh wow, we’re talking about such a detailed level. 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, that would also be fine with me. I certainly do like the “arbitrary” in your comment.

While writing the article, I also thought about something like that:

date := time.Date(2026, 6, 19,
    17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC)

Or possibly:

date := time.Date(
    2026, 6, 19,
    17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC,
)

But it’s four lines for a damn timestamp. I also contemplated whether a comment acting as a separator is all that’s needed:

date := time.Date(2026, 6, 19, /**/ 17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC)

I might like that the most. Not entirely sure yet. It kinda feels like a hack, but still a little elegant. Add your comment on top and we’re golden. Maybe?

I deliberately excluded them as this only distracted from the points I wanted to make. And I also realized that this example was just not ideal at all. Perhaps I should add them nevertheless?

If I ever invented a programming language, a much more human readable timestamp representation of some sort, RFC 3339 or very close to that would be part of that language. Something along the lines of /pattern/ for regexes in certain languages.

In-reply-to » In the light of current events, I will first consult my pillow and only then write an article about readable code.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh wow, we’re talking about such a detailed level. 🤔

I agree with most of what you said.

I probably would have written it like this:

// Arbitrary reference date.
//                   Y  m   d   H  M  S  nano
date := time.Date(2026, 6, 19, 17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC)

Would this be better or worse? 😅

Yeah, that’s easier to accept, isn’t? “Phew, they’re not human after all. They’re not absolute psychopaths with zero empathy – they’re just aliens. Humans are good!” 😅

@bender@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Ta! I don’t know about regional differences. But at the moment, they first start slowly appearing at around 21:45 to 22:00. And then it gets more and more. You’ve got about an hour until it’s over.

People often say that they are in and over the meadows close to the edges of the forest. But at least over here, there are literally magnitudes more in the forest. So far, I’ve maybe seen thirty, fourty (30-40) fireflies outside at the meadows, but one or two thousand (1000-2000) inside. Exactly like last year.

They like a little bit openish spots in the forest. Not like a clearing, but if you can see ~10 meters from the path into the woodland, chances are that fireflies will pop up. But if it’s really thick brush, the odds are very slim. The hotspots also slowly wander around over time. So, I just keep on walking after a few minutes of stopping to enjoy the show.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Definitely silly in places (and the back-alley fistfight is AWESOME).

But it also wouldn’t surprise me to find out that people like Bezzos, Musk, and Zuckerberg are actually ghoulish aliens here to keep us into a state of reduced consciousness while they extract what they can. “Their third-world.”

It’s like the bearded-man says: “We could be pets, we could be food, but all we really are is cattle.”
