@movq@www.uninformativ.de Following all your Wayland endeavors, it doesn’t sound like a mature and usable thing to me yet.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I found it quite easy to mentally parse this structure.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I spent so much time in the past figuring out if something is a dict or a list in YAML, for example.

What are the types in this example?

items:
- part_no:   A4786
  descrip:   Water Bucket (Filled)
  price:     1.47
  quantity:  4
- part_no:   E1628
  descrip:   High Heeled "Ruby" Slippers
  size:      8
  price:     133.7
  quantity:  1

items is a dict containing … a list of two other dicts? Right?

It is quite hard for me to grasp the structure of YAML docs. 😢

The big advantage of YAML (and JSON and TOML) is that it’s much easier to write code for those formats, than it is with XML. json.loads() and you’re done.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org YAYYYY <3

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I might need that script as well. 🙈🙏

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org The cynic in me says: “It’s not bleeding edge, it’s from 2008!” That’s not fair, though, looks like the issue only arose in libinput in 2019. And maybe these weird mice are super rare. Dunno.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org The underlines are a bit much, yes. It appears to be related to my font (Helvetica) … Maybe they do some Unicode trickery these days, I don’t know. 🫤

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I fully agree with you on https://www.uninformativ.de/blog/postings/2025-07-22/0/POSTING-en.html!

Although, in the first screenshot, the window title background is much darker in the new version than the old one!1!1 :-P Kidding aside, the contrast in the old one is still better.

Also, note the missing underlines for the Alt hotkeys now. I just think that the underline in the old one is too thick.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de LOL! No, I mean Wayland.

Of course, @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz! But I’ll first write some instructions (hopefully this week) and then let you know. :-) Should be much easier then.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org What’s bleeding edge? The mouse? Yeah, maybe. 😅 I didn’t buy that on purpose and didn’t even know hi-res mouse wheels were a thing …

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org got this script anywhere cuz i would be interested 👀👀👀

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that’s so interesting omg!!! if true i wonder why it does that…. so weird!

@javivf@adn.org.es Perfect, it’s fixed! :-)

Hey @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org thanks for noticing. I think I had a DNS record pointing to the old IPv6 host. Is the issue gone now?

Hi @javivf@adn.org.es, your TLS certificate ia broken:

certificate is valid for cluster029.hosting.ovh.net, not adn.org.es

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh boy! Fingers crossed.

That’s what you get when playing with bleeding edges. :-D

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I have absolutely no idea, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it uses the closest full image after your cut point and not the one before. Hence, the deltas between the two full images have nothing to really refer to. So, the video player just shows the first full image it finds and “freezes” the image until the video stream actually hits it.

Let me try to visualize it, | represent full images, . just subsequent deltas:

Original start of video
↓
|......|.....|........|......|..
   ↑                      ↑
   Cut point      Cut point

Resulting video:

   ....|.....|........|....
   ↑↑↑↑
   This is where it freezes         

Could be complete bullshit, though. Wouldn’t be the first time that I’m wrong. :-)

I’m just curious, what exact command line do you use to cut the video?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz why does ffmpeg always freeze the video in the first five seconds after a cut lmfao

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz not k-pop but i will share one. look at my girl dambara ruru

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yeah same YAML over XML forever bc at least one is more readable lmfao!! doesn’t forgive YAML’s crimes though… cursed formats

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yesss it’s not my idea but it’s sooo fun here ngl like i should use it more!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Yup, can’t complain! :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Nice use of dmenu.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Any text format beats a binary configuration format. However, YAML and XML are both terrible choices in my opinion. I’d prefer YAML over XML if I had to.

@bender@twtxt.net I plan to trade it in within it’s warranty period 🤣 It has 7yr warrants on everything, I said to the dealer, I’ll see you in 5 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net interesting, a Chinese pickup truck. Hmm, I would very interested to know your thoughts about it 2-3 years from now.

@bender@twtxt.net That was one of the inputs into my research 🧐 So that’s already factored in. We bought our new truck (2025 GWM Canon) recently to replace the ‘ol 2nd hand Nissan Navara we bought that just had too many things go wrong with it, and I don’t have time or energy to learn to be a diesel mechanic haha 🤣 – So yes, the SCT-16 has a Tare (unladen weight) of 2150Kg and a maximum legal (ATM) weight of 2,800Kg.

@prologic@twtxt.net that looks like a beautiful camper! What kind of truck do you have to pull it? That could be the next thing you might need to focus on. I mean, 2,800kg gross is not feather light!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de omg YAML is so demonic like it pretends to be readable and then THE SPACING. THE FUCKING SPACING

@movq@www.uninformativ.de LMAOOOO

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I kind of like XML because it’s mostly well-defined and easy for humans to read (unlike YAML, which is a complete mess, imho) … and at the same time, it can get complicated really fast. 🫤 But at least it’s plain-text – that’s the important part in this case. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org SOOOOO PRETTY

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz likeeee how cute is this

@movq@www.uninformativ.de XML is so terrifying but kinda underrated tbh

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i wanna catch up on the twts!!!

@bender@twtxt.net Yes! You guys have this thing called a “5th wheeler” 🤣 We (Aussies) just don’t normally have big enough trucks to drag those “House on wheels” though 😅

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Haha, nice! :-D I haven’t come across this one before.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I know web server which reject request with Referrer header

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s an interesting idea. For privacy, I’d just omit the Referer altogether. But maybe this helps talking to misconfigured HTTP servers that reject requests without such a header. No clue.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hm, I don’t think so, the requested page was a Linux-specific post. 🤔 I sometimes wonder if privacy-oriented browsers might do this on purpose, to create garbage data? 🤔 No idea.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I honestly wish I could do more than just sit here and wait. It’s just a matter of time until they remove X.Org from the repos. 🫤 But I really can’t dedicate so much time to this …

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I only know three letters: S (…), O (—) and E (.). ;-)

@arne@uplegger.eu Das ist wie mit Kulis. Die verschwinden auch urplötzlich auf völlig unerklärliche Weise.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, you can’t rely on them. Anybody could just transmit whatever they wanted. Bots and spammers abuse them all the time. But maybe some older version of that page actually referenced your site. :-?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de X.org forever!

@bender@twtxt.net Even I don’t believe in that anymore. :‘(

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Don’t remind me about Morse. I really wanted to learn that and tried so for quite a while, but no success. 😢

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ja, eine kleine Inventur vorab kann auch nicht schaden. Der Bestand an Erdankern, Heringen und Gaskartuschen ist durch mich die Tage schon wieder aufgestockt worden.
Wo das Gas bleibt weiß ich. Warum die Befestigungen immer weniger werden, obwohl wir durchzählen (!), ist mir unbekannt. Vielleicht sind wir im Zahlenraum von 1 bis 20 einfach nur noch sehr unsicher. 🤓

@bender@twtxt.net Finally! Let’s wait and see how it turns out. :-D
