We covered quite some ground in the two and a half hours today. The weather was nice, mostly cloudy and just 23°C. That’s also why we decided to take a longer tour. We saw four deer in the wild, three of which I managed to just ban on film, quality could be better, though. My camera produced a hell lot of defocused photos this time. Not sure what’s going on with the autofocus. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-07-10/
When the sun came out, colors were just beautiful:
Yeah, little fellow. I also just want to walk away. https://movq.de/v/bef8c35f01/ach.mp4
We got some colorful spots in the sky this evening: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-07-08/
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, it’s a shitshow. MS overconfirms all my prejudices constantly.
Ignoring e-mail after lunch works great, though. :-)
Our timetracking is offline for over a week because of reasons. The responsible bunglers are falling by the skin of their teeth: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/timetracking.png
I find it really fascinating how one can screw up on so many levels. This is developed inhouse, I’m just so glad that we’re not a software engineering company. Oh wait. How embarrassing.

It took about a year, I think, but I’ve now finished another run of Tomb Raider I, II, and III. And I have, for the first time, played the two bonus packs “Unfinished Business” (for TR I) and “Golden Mask” (for TR II). They’re available as a free download, if you have the original games. (The bonus pack for TR III is not free.)
I just love these games – and the game mechanics. It’s just the right balance between challenging and relaxing.
Feeling a bit bad for the folks and Coffs Harbor and on the coast of Sydney right now 🤯
The lid is on and the first saw brackets are done. Let’s see how impractical they are. I might have to add heavy chamfers to better guide them in.
I added 07 to 11: https://lyse.isobeef.org/tmp/hobelbankschubladen/
A few more…
As promised, here’s some photos of love you!! camping trip to Canarcon George in QLD, Australia.
Heck yeah, I’ve been a firefly taxi again! \o/ One landed on my hiking boot and rode along a few meters. It then took off on its own without me having to help it. I saw easily a thousand glowing individuals tonight, bloody cool. :-)
Just realized: One of the reasons why I don’t like “flat UIs” is that they look broken to me. Like the program has a bug, missing pixmaps or whatever.
Take this for example:

I’m talking about this area specifically:
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/a%2Dhigh.png
One UI element ends and the other one begins – no “transition” between them.
The style of old UIs like these two is deeply ingrained into my brain:
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/b.png
https://movq.de/v/8822afccf0/c.png
When all these little elements (borders, handles, even just simple lines, …) are no longer present, then the program looks buggy and broken to me. And I’m not sure if I’ll ever be able to un-learn that.
After drawing the bigger canine stickers, I also want to change my profile picture for summer, to something more fluffy, shaded and a bit smug looking.
Felt the need to make this stupid reference - nobody will get, most likely. Feel free to guess (the file name and todays date, are both a hint), any other notes and opinions appreciated too, idk if I ever drew a standing one, from the front, before.
Am Wochenende wurde mit Eisstielen, Stempeln und dem Lötkolben gebastelt.
Das Ergebnis sind Namensschilder für die Kräutertöpfe. Die unegale Optik finde ich sehr angenehm.
QR codes, already posted about them in the last two posts, but I want to hear your hot takes: Should they only be black and white, are they even worth doing in 2025, incorporating them into things,..?
Also, finally getting full screen view for avatars in XMPP - a better integrated one, after 25 years. Y@ay!
I sent you my QR code, please respond!
*for context: long ago, there were some complaints, about some of my sitting drawings, where the legs are apart, not using dithering/more shading and one of my favourite artists, made a video, exploring the use of QR codes, in art
P.S.: the code just redirects to my websites
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org maybe 3D printed toys are the solution, to the dust collecting problem. My collection of 3D printed canines, just expanded today, with this new keychain:
I’ve been poking around with #Crowdsec for the past couple of days, had to deal with a lot of false paositives but I’m starting to get it. I’ve even hooked it up with #Ntfy just because I can. Now I should try making my own scenarios and see how it goes.
En estos momentos, no sé si un dios le está pidiendo que libere su pueblo felino o está mirando una paloma
smug woof
This one just occurred to me randomly.
The new toy has arrived and is ready to be cleansed of it’s pre-installed Win 10 pro (yuck!) …

Thank you @python_valencia@twtxt.python-valencia.es for letting me show you the secrets of a decentralised plain text social network like twtxt.
I hope you enjoyed the talk! ❤️🐍
My granddaughter will grow up much like me.
The rabbit hole is an interesting concept.
Mosfets are rapid electronic switches, to feed pulsed frequency amps into a transformer
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.
I spent this Monday afternoon back from work, drawing myself as the “you made it to Friday sailors” dog. Totally unrelated to the 3 hours wasted on meetings, pretending to discuss great suggestions from high management, nobody else wants to implement.

@prologic@twtxt.net Looks great with the new logo.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Next release will convert markdown to org syntax if you have Pandoc command installed 😎. Mentions are org links, for example.

Heute waren das Ziehkind und ich zwei Stunden lang auf drei Spielplätzen und quer durch die Stadt unterwegs. Ein riesiger Spaß!
Vorab habe ich im hiesigen Spielzeugladen ein Konvolut von Klemmbausteinen erstanden, welche wohl zu einer Polizeistation gehörten!?
Okay, I won’t park there.
What would you like the new twtxt logo to be?

I couldn’t resist taking home a prize:
It’s been snowy here in #Toronto.
(I tried formatting the images in markdown for the benefit of yarn and any other clients that understand it.)
I have uploaded a new version of #twtxtel 🥳. It’s now possible to view profiles, either your own or others. #twtxt #emacs
I have infinite scroll now! I can finally focus on replies and mentions 😋
