How you can tell a “review post” on some random website was written by AI?
Ergonomically nicer than its binocular counterpart
How exactly is this a reason to avoid?! 🤦♂️
Okay, now this is a very interesting Rust feature:

This (and inline assembly) makes Rust really interesting for very low-level stuff. 🥳
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.
Someone did a thing:

I’ve been silently wondering all the time if this was possible, but never investigated: Keep doing X11 but use Wayland as a backend.
This uses XWayland’s “rootful” mode, which basically just gives you a normal Wayland window with all the X11 stuff happening inside of it:

In other words, put such a window in fullscreen and you (more or less) have good old X11 running in a Wayland window.
(For me, personally, this won’t be the way forward. But it’s a very interesting project.)
Alright, now for something fun! Taxes! Yay!

Bon c’est pas tout ça, mais je crois qu’aujourd’hui, ça sera serpillage à froid partout pour refroidir la maison :)
Les gens qui arrosent leur pelouse le soir, vous aimez les moustiques en fait? Collabos! 🦟

Rest in peace Barry Vercoe
C’est la dernière semaine de cours qui commence, l’occasion de jouer avec des glaçons. Le principe? Il faut sauver son glaçon ou éliminer les glaçons adverses. Du souffle du dragon à la pluie de sel avec un plateau qui change à chaque partie, on s’amuse bien en classe. vous pouvez tester à la maison : https://si3t.ch/glagla
new icon! the girl is manon from KATSEYE because i’m mega obsessed with them
STOP! this is a dambara ruru video checkpoint. you must watch this video or else i will find you
woke up so early that i have nothing to do
ouiii, j’ai de nouveau internet. si3t.ch is back, le backup mail fait son office ;)
Nothing makes you feel better than mowing a wet lawn, while rain falls, under 33°C temperature, with 80% humidity. I loved every step I took!

Had a moment, to check up on some of the companies, I stopped following, get to The Browser Company and see their newest product - it’s just Chrome, with an AI chat window pop-up and that’s it. Something Canary Chrome, come with already.
I see Theo from T3.gg, making fun of it on YouTube and promoting “his” product - an AI chat app, where you can choose from multiple models, by all the popular AI companies. Something I already have a worse version of, at work and I don’t even use it.
There’s also an interview, about the future of virtual keyboards, surely this is at least actually a real thing and not more pointless horse shit. I check the website of the keyboard SDK, and it’s around 20 identical apps, that just copy the same keyboard SDK/api and slap chatgpt features on top - in the App Store, these are surrounded by chatgpt clones, that just feed the users prompts, into the real thing and put ads, next to the answers.

Am Wochenende wurde mit Eisstielen, Stempeln und dem Lötkolben gebastelt.
Das Ergebnis sind Namensschilder für die Kräutertöpfe. Die unegale Optik finde ich sehr angenehm.

as i just setup proxy for minio, they start to charge lmao, gotta change my file storage solution.
this pod was hosted on the mini box too, should I also move gitea to it?
also, imma think a name for the shitbox and tape on it 👌🏽
nice, i just learned how to follow somebody from the other pod/mastodon
insert me tapping on a mic is this thing on???
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
Buying a TV these days, means trying to avoid endless enshitification:
-Spyware and adware
-Shitty AI upscaling/ frame interpolation
-HW that breaks after 2 - 3 years
-One off OS, dead on arrival
-Android OS, that starts lagging after the third update
-8 buttons worth of ads, on your remote
You probably have to make some kind of a compromise. I thought that was buying from some other brand like Hyundai, but that one also felt into some of those categories and just broke, after less than 3 years of use. At this point I’ll probably go back to LG and hope their HW is still reliable and the rest manageable… It has AI bullshit and knowing LG, probably some spyware you have to try your best to get rid of, can buy a remote with “only” 2 ads on it, some web-based OS shared between all their TVs, that usually gets 4 - 5 years worth of updates and works decently enough afterwards.
At this point, I’ll probably settle for anything that doesn’t literally fall apart, not even 3 years in, like the Hyundai did.
My icon on here will never not crack me up. It’s so low quality, it feels like a facebook mom meme. Perfect for random corners of the indie web.
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

Nobody want to be a shitty programmer. The question is: Do you do anything not to not be one?
Reading blogs or social media and watching YouTube videos is fun. After them, your code may be a little better, of course. But you need a lot. You need to study! Read good books and study the code of other programmers, for example. Maybe work with a new language, architectures and paradigms. You need break the routine.
If you know Object-oriented programming, you learn functional programming.
If you know Model-View-Controller, you learn Model-View-ViewModel.
If you don’t know anything about architectures, you learn Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, etc.
If you know Python, you learn Ruby or Go.
If you know Clojure or Lisp… you don’t need to learn anything else. You are already a good programmer. Just kidding. You can learn Elixir or Scala.
Be a good programmer my friend.
I’ve just released version 1.0 of twtxt.el (the Emacs client), the stable and final version with the current extensions. I’ll let the community maintain it, if there are interested in using it. I will also be open to fix small bugs.
I don’t know if this twt is a goodbye or a see you later. Maybe I will never come back, or maybe I will post a new twt this afternoon. But it’s always important to be grateful. Thanks to @prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de @eapl.me@eapl.me @bender@twtxt.net @aelaraji@aelaraji.com @arne@uplegger.eu @david@collantes.us @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt @xuu@txt.sour.is @sorenpeter@darch.dk for everything you have taught me. I’ve learned a lot about #twtxt, HTTP and working in community. It has been a fantastic adventure!
What will become of me? I have created a twtxt fork called Texudus (https://texudus.readthedocs.io/). I want to continue learning on my own without the legacy limitations or technologies that implement twtxt. It’s not a replacement for any technology, it’s just my own little lab. I have also made a fork of my own client and will be focusing on it for a while. I don’t expect anyone to use it, but feedback is always welcome.
Best regards to everyone.

We havet an AI assistant at work, new version came out today “nearby restaurant recommendations” mentioned. Gotta try that!
Ask it where I can get a burger, knowing there’s 3 spots that had it on the menu, AI says there’s none. Ask it to list all the restaurants nearby it can check… it knows 3, of the 10 or so around, but 1/3, even has a burger, on the menu.
Ask it to list the whole menu at restaurant 1: it hallucinates random meals, none of which they had (I ate there).
Restaurant 2 (the one most people go to, so they must have at least tested it with this one): it lists the soup of the day and ¾ meals available. Incomplete, but better than false.
Restaurant 3: it says “food” and gives a general description of food. You have to be fucking kidding me!
“BuT cAnInE, tHe A(G)i ReVoLuTiOn Is NoW”
In Spain, electricity has already been restored. Amazing experience! Luckily, I will only have to throw away some food. But there are stories of all kinds. It has been 12 hours where we have gone back to the middle ages.
After 12 hours of power outage and almost a proper rest I feel uncommonly full of energy

i feel like i’ve stumbled upon an alternative internet universe, gemini protocol, the small internet and a counter-cultural world!
I decided to use Imagor to optimise and transform the images into a stream. I am very happy with the results!
It is written in Go and is easy to run in Docker.
