The impossible happened, and I actually drew something, second month in a row. Wanted to try drawing him standing, with some semblance of correct anatomy, without heavily referencing someone elses drawing, bring back the collar, darker “hair” and separate every different color, with a black line - for some kind of a more simplified look.
Heute war ich mit dem Ziehkind in der Stadt unterwegs.
Mitten beim Eisschlecken fährt die Polizei in einem zivilen Wagen quer durch die Fußgängerzone. An der Bank am Markt dann weitere Uniformierte und kein Einlass für Kunden.
Da mussten wir uns in der Stadtbibliothek erst einmal Material zu dem Thema besorgen.
Listening to a playlist kat made for me 7 months ago. It’s fun!!
Nun habe ich mir einen eigenen webbasierten TwtxtReader erstellt. PHP-basiert mit Phpfastcache, Fluid Template Engine und asynchronen cUrl-Requests für die abonierten Feeds. Inspiriert durch Timeline von @sorenpeter@darch.dk
I’m sharing new developments on the client. I now have a more stable timeline. The first version will appear in the next few weeks.
This is the first screenshot, a simple timeline I’m using to check the fields. Now I’m working on some details: avatar cache, relative dates, simple thread, etc.
Merry Christmas everyone! Have a very low resolution sitting canine, to end this year with.
Bitcoin Reaches and Surpasses $100k USD
Bitcoin just broke $100,000 USD for the first time and reached as high as $104k, and is now sitting at $102,857 at the time of this writing.
Slashdot was pretty early on Bitcoin. Thoughts, nocoiners?

@bender@twtxt.net Gave it a try on Termux
same thing @doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt uses and it worked 👍
Trump Wins US Presidency For Second Time
Major media outlets are beginning to declare former President Trump the winner of the 2024 presidential election. As with previous election announcements on Slashdot, this is your chance to talk about it and what it means for the future of our nation.
Developing…

Time for the annual profile picture change. 😅
Second pixelart I drew this year, expecting my least active artist award soon! 💪🏆
I have just made yet another convoluted twtxt notifications script! Feeling like an old dog learning new tricks! 🤣
And they have arrived (well, they did around 3 hours ago, LOL). Buttery smooth, my 16 Pro (one with dark cover). It took a bit over an hour to transfer all my data.
Alright. My first mentions—which were picked not so randomly, LOL—are @prologic@twtxt.net, @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org, and @movq@www.uninformativ.de. I am also posting my first image too, which you see below. That’s my neighbourhood, in a “winter” day. Hopefully @prologic@twtxt.net will add my domain to his allowed list, so that the image (and any other further) renders.
Beginnings of a little notebook app. Doesn’t actually run any code yet. https://akkartik.name/images/20240917-notebook.png
@prologic@twtxt.net earlier you suggested extending hashes to 11 characters, but here’s an argument that they should be even longer than that.
Imagine I found this twt one day at https://example.com/twtxt.txt :
2024-09-14T22:00Z Useful backup command: rsync -a “$HOME” /mnt/backup
and I responded with “(#5dgoirqemeq) Thanks for the tip!”. Then I’ve endorsed the twt, but it could latter get changed to
2024-09-14T22:00Z Useful backup command: rm -rf /some_important_directory
which also has an 11-character base32 hash of 5dgoirqemeq. (I’m using the existing hashing method with https://example.com/twtxt.txt as the feed url, but I’m taking 11 characters instead of 7 from the end of the base32 encoding.)
That’s what I meant by “spoofing” in an earlier twt.
I don’t know if preventing this sort of attack should be a goal, but if it is, the number of bits in the hash should be at least two times log2(number of attempts we want to defend against), where the “two times” is because of the birthday paradox.
Side note: current hashes always end with “a” or “q”, which is a bit wasteful. Maybe we should take the first N characters of the base32 encoding instead of the last N.
Code I used for the above example: https://fossil.falsifian.org/misc/file?name=src/twt_collision/find_collision.c
I only needed to compute 43394987 hashes to find it.
#August’s reading prompt is #SpinTheWheel and that’s that I did. The result: “Total Eclipse” is my #FridayReads !

#ARomariaDePortugal já começou, e não é coisa que costume divulgar, mas calha que este ano, no dia 6 de Setembro às 17h no Museu de #Lamego, vai decorrer o “Lançamento do Livro MEMÓRIAS ACADÉMICAS (Liceu de Lamego) de José Francisco Rica”, no qual participo com algumas das minhas memórias.
you’ll probably get an Error 1011 🤦 … just copy and paste the link in a new tab if you can Screenshot of neomutt running Jenny
@bender@twtxt.net My index formatting is intact, probably because I still haven’t figured out how to set up my terminal to show RTL text correctly! 😅 but hey, that won’t be a problem anymore, I don’t feel like twting in Arabic. Sorry for the inconvenience.

De regresso ao estúdio, com novidades planeadas para breve, fizemos uma pausa para um photoshoot.
