@bender@twtxt.net Yeah. something i’m trying to avoid in this 2nd attempt 🤞

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I see problems with that, yes. Case in point:

Image

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, it is only Manton (with which I don’t see eye to eye) for now. I am simply anticipating the issue, rather than experiencing it fully right now. If efforts continue on this direction, you see what I am writing about, right?

@kiwu@twtxt.net I see. I have no experience on the matter, sadly. :-( I am sure you can find plenty of recommendations online. Beware of anything below $100 (you will find plenty of cheap, but they are, indeed, cheap in the whole sense of the word). I’d say, a decent one will start around $250-$300, and up.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Gemini agrees. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Judging by the BRG and BIDV buildings, I conclude this is Hồ Hoàn Kiếm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ho%C3%A0n_Ki%E1%BA%BFm_Lake

there’s also a constant veil of what I believe to be cold dust in the air and smog 😢

this is apparently a famous lake in Hanoi city in Vietnam. Don’t know what it’s called though.

@kiwu@twtxt.net I’ve no idea about regulations in your area, but over here there are different taxation rules for video and photo cameras. Hence, manufacturers limit the video recording time of photo cameras typically to half an hour, so that they don’t classify as video cameras with their higher taxes.

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Worked out perfectly for me, too! :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Tada! There you once hope for your flight and ride to be delayed and then of course they are right on time! :-D You gotta wait either way. ;-) Looks like you got some good drinks, though.

Yeah, how? We are facing this very problem.

We have arrived at our first hotel. but check-in isn’t till 2PM 🤣 We arrived at 12:45PM 😆

Image

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe That’s the one 😆

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Very nice! 👌

That’s going to be most of our holidays next year 🤣 Mostly because we bought a van to go “glamping” about the country 😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh i see!

It’s only been really @manton@bridge.twtxt.net that’s new on yhe disxover cure? 🧐 And only because i’m following him (only person whose Fediverse handle i could remember 🤣)

@prologic@twtxt.net Very rarely. And if I/we do, then it’s by train or by car. 😅

@bender@twtxt.net a mobile phone camera doesn’t cut it because it cant take long videos. I would say like the cheapest possible tbh! it doesn’t have to be an amazing grade a camera, just something that will record in decent quality for long periods of time! I mostly want it to make vlogs :p

Even on piss poor in-flight Wi-Fi it works pretty well 👌

I have to say. A well designed Hypermedia Driven Web Application such as yarnd‘ using HTMX is just as good, i'd not better, than one written in React.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You don’t go on holidays anywhere? 🧐

@prologic@twtxt.net Really? That’s nice. 😅 (God, I haven’t been on a plane in 25 years, I think.)

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Too true!

One of the advantages of being vegetarian. you get served your in-flight meal first. before everyone else 🤣

Image

@bender@twtxt.net What’s happened for you here? 🧐

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha, I would feel the same. :-)

@kiwu@twtxt.net It also greatly depends on what kind of videos you plan to record. When you go, let’s say, diving, the specs need to be probably more suited to that type of environment. What about zoom, macro shots, wide landscapes, and so on? When typically mounted on a tripod, I’d say builtin image stabilization is not required, but for more action shots, this is fairly important to not get sea sick. :-)

I’ve got a Nikon Coolpix S9300. I typically only take photos, but it also works for the occasional video. Free hand moves are quite difficult, but when mounted to a tripod, this is not too shabby. There’s absolutely no way around a (makeshift) tridpod when zooming in, though. The audio is definitely not the best, especially wind destroys everything. If I recorded more video, I would certainly want to have an external microphone.

As someone that almost exclusively uses “Discover”, that is. If you do use it like I do, you know I mean.

Ah, the collateral damage of ActivityPub bridges…

@movq@www.uninformativ.de All good! 👌 Likely bug on my end (bridge)

fark’n hell! why are there so many actors on the bridge?! 🤯 (shadow twtxt feeds)

@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm. 🤔 Well, I don’t run that server myself, so I can’t peek into the logs to see what’s going wrong … 🥴

The token isn’t secret in anyway, just proving that you control / own the feed.

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Yea or as a comment in your feed somewhere

Seems i can’t add you to the bridge hmmm

Image

@movq@www.uninformativ.de So that’s movq@tilde.zone ? I’ll first have to put it into the bridge…

@prologic@twtxt.net do I just have to actually post the token into the twtxt timeline for the bridge?

(as in, for registration)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh yeah, there’s lots of them here. Even in winter when it’s freezing outside. I’m always baffled to see parrots in the snow … feels like a paradox. 🥴

@prologic@twtxt.net How do I test? You can try to mention my Mastodon account https://tilde.zone/@movq, if that helps. 🤔

Hey @ocdtrekkie@bridge.twtxt.net 👋 Is this thing on? 🧐

Maybe someone else can help with more testing? 🧐

I think i may have fixed threading too but can’t easily test now as i’ve left for my
holiday and don’t really use Mastodon 😂

@therealprologic@bridge.twtxt.net Sweet! Mentions are fixed! 👌 Now just have to fix threading!

Hey @prologic@twtxt.net 👋

@therealprologic@bridge.twtxt.net Okay so the mention translation is. busted and umm the threading is busted. But other than that, so far so good 😊

@c350a5e5fb9d9457@bridge.twtxt.net Does this mean we’res starting to work, this whole Twtxt <-> ActivityPub bridge thingy? 🤔

Oh my god! 🤣 It works! 🥳 My first Twt into the Fediverse (stil some improvements to be made of course), but still 😳 Wow! 🤩
