A hike to the highest mountain in the Odenwald, the Katzenbuckel, lit. cat hillock. It was very windy and the sun very rarely showed its face, so it was quite chilly. Nice scenery, nevertheless. Surprisingly, this ski-jumping hill is still in operation. I’ve never expected this in a hundred years, judging by its state. https://lyse.isobeef.org/katzenbuckel-2025-03-29/
I’m playing with ratterplatter again: It’s a toy that watches disk I/O and emulates the noise of a real hard disk. (Linux only.) It uses sound samples from one of my older disks.
I tried a different approach at estimating the disk activity and I think I finally got it right (after almost 10 years … 🤦).
Demo, booting a Windows 2000 VM: https://movq.de/v/1400544cc6/2kboot-ratterplatter-2.mp4
(For this purpose alone, I put a couple of mini speakers into my PC case, so that the noise comes from the right place: https://movq.de/v/a3b2dc0932/speakers.jpg)
The results aren’t too bad, but this thing can’t be super accurate due to the huge I/O caches that we have these days. For the video, I dropped the caches before booting Windows, otherwise you would have heard almost nothing.
FWIW, if you don’t know it yet, this is the equivalent for proper keyboard sound: https://github.com/zevv/bucklespring

Bad Wimpfen has a pretty cool old town with timber framed houses. Looks really beautiful: https://lyse.isobeef.org/bad-wimpfen-2025-03-28/
Hmmm this needs a bit more work.
And we’re back. On the new Sqlitecache 🥳
Ooops I ran a docker build on one of my production nodes (the ingress node) 😱
👋 Folks that use this pod, I’ll be rolling out an experimental new caching backend to this pod shortly. Stay tuned. Please provide feedback either here via Twtxt or on IRC. Thanks! 🙏
This is why I blocked entire ASN(s) 🤣
Tom Waits in 2025 looks and sounds exactly like you’d expect. 🥴
Avec l’aide de Péhä, j’ai amélioré ma collection de logos #solarpunk. Merci! https://si3t.ch/misc/solarpunk/
I wonder if I can do away with the followers follows mutes tables and expect the client to actually filter Twts appropriately before Display? This would simplify the SqliteCache considerably and also mean it would be agnostic of single-user or multi-user as that’s delegated to another layer. Hmmm 🧐
Whoohoo! 😇
Interesting.. so running into an issue where queries only return a partal set of rows if i run in a docker image built from scratch. i have to add the debian root image for it to work. I wonder what file is missing that the root has?
so much sun <3

Besoin de sous… Je songe sérieusement à faire quelques missions IT en tant que micro entrepreneur… mais j’ignore comment faire ma promo ni si j’aurais des missions proposées :s

L’argument du “yen a qui font pire tfaçon” m’insupporte aussi. ET j’ai envie de croire au systémique, à l’inspiration qu’on donne en montrant aussi un comportement positif.
I’ve identified several issues with my current (admittedly cheap) upright bass by now. It might be time to upgrade to a better model. 🤔
If only those things weren’t so damn expensive. I just checked the prices and simply burst out laughing. 😂

C’est fou comme c’est cher une voiture oO. Comment vous faîtes les gens???
hung out with friends today it was nice :)
Ça m’énerve, ils ne peuvent même pas écrire CO₂ correctement sur les sites marchand de voiture. C’est CO₂, pas CO² bordel!
My granddaughter will grow up much like me.
I saw 100% I/O wait in htop today but couldn’t find a process which actually does I/O. Turns out, I/O wait isn’t what it used to be anymore:
https://lwn.net/Articles/989272/
In my case, it was mpd which triggered this:
https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD/issues/2241
mpd doesn’t actually do anything, it just sits there and waits for events. To my understanding, this is similar to something blocking on read(). I’m not quite sure yet if displaying this as I/O wait (or “PSI some io”) is intentional or not – but it sure is confusing.
The rabbit hole is an interesting concept.
i wonder if i could make a little yarn widget for my site to show my last post. that’d be fun. sadly i do not know javascript
wonyoung pfp now. i love her
i have got to try the jenny yarn client it looks so fun and old school……..
anyway re: girl doxxing for wonyoung. this is real wonyoungism. i can only dream of being that iconic. for context wonyoung gets so much hate and she is literally my age and has been doing this idol shit since she was 13 and has gotten called all sorts of horrible things since then because people are jealous of her. so imo doxxing in her name is OK and justified i DON’T CARE there are youtubers in south korea who have made a career out of hating on her and are now getting sued by her for defamation
you know i’m posting from CLI right now and i still haven’t figured out how to reply to my own post via yarnc
i could do anything for wonyoung but nothing will ever be as cool and iconic as the 13 year old daughter of the baidu vice president who doxxed over 100 people during an argument for hating on wonyoung. Absolute icon
J’ai cette ip dans mes logs qui n’arrête pas de télécharger le même document toutes les minutes avec axios. Bizarre… 20.199.24.163
i love everything pico.sh i wish i had more of a use for their services but the paste service is SUPER handy omg i finally had a reason to use it (to send a friend my unfinished failed marvel API bash program lol) and it’s epic. i love SSH i love TUI apps they are the best

Maxwell Chikumbusto has invented how to make power from the air, using frequency amps to make a load work normally using power from the transient energy in the air.

Sandy Kidd and others are making two spinning wheels make trust, defying gravity. This should be possible but the angle is critical to get right. Such motions are complex, my picture is poor.

Bit of an update, there is now a general licence for all my stuff:
“Unless projects are accompanied by a different license, Creative Commons apply (“BY-NC-ND” for all art featuring the Canine mascot and “BY-NC” for everything else).”
It’s even included on my website, where most of the demand for a clear licence originated from:
In practice this changes nothing, as I was never enforcing anything more than this anyway and given permission for other use too. Now it’s just official that this is the baseline, of what can be done, without having to ask for permission first.
