@movq@www.uninformativ.de No doubt, thatâs for sure. The only thing I can say: Works for me since forever.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thanks, yeah. Letâs hope that we still get a few apples from these trees (theyâre marked for public use) in a few weeks.
Had to go to the office today. Leaving the house, some nice reddish spots appeared in the sky, probably saw a hedgehog and by the time I reached the train station, the sunrise had fully emerged. Unfortuntely, I did not have a camera with me, so I had to enjoy this super crazy, ultra red sky on the platform and canât show you anything. It was easily one of the most beautiful sunrises of this year. A very large section of the sky was very, very red.
This evening I had to go for a quick stoll after suffering from terrible seating conditions in this meeting room. I met a few friends on the way and shook their hands. Then it occurred to one of them that this was a bad move, heâs home sick with a sore throat and a positive corona test. I watched like a hawk to not touch myself with that hand and sanitized the crap out of me when I got home. Let this cup pass from me. On the truly positive side, however, I saw a squirrel, the rest of the sunset (I missed the best part in the forest), six deer on a paddock and a bat flying over me couple of times. Good yield.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Just donât get a new one.
Itâs the airplane edition of the forest stroll today: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2023-09-27/
Unfortunately, all pictures of the first subject turned out to be blurry. Luckily, my collection of much nicer sunsets is rather huge.
@prologic@twtxt.net Had a scouting game with the scouts today. The story was that some leaders didnât want to let go their older kids to the next section and thus stole and hid the new neckerchiefs. So the children had to solve all sorts of puzzles in groups to get a new hint and figure out new coordinates that eventually lead to the hidden box. One station was diving for apples, the kids had really great fun. Eventually, the box with the neckerchiefs was successfully located under the hut at the scout yard.
This meant the older kids of all the sections could finally leave their mates and join the next sections. Each section comes up with some kind of an entry exam each year. What you can see in the photos is the scouts (âJungpfadfinderâ, or short âJupfisâ) who are wearing blue colored neckerchiefs and explorers (âPfadfinderâ/âPfadisâ) in green. The old cubs (âWölfingeâ/âWösâ) joining as new scouts had to guess the type of both yummy and nasty blue dyed liquids. Banana juice, cucumber water and the like.
The explorers welcomed their new members with a quiz of green things. Somebody started with the name of something green. The next person then had to find another term of a green-colored item that started with the same letter the previous thing ended in. E.g. grass, slime, emerald, dill, etc. If someone couldnât think of a thing within fifteen seconds, they had to choose left or right and whatever another person behind them was secretly holding up in the air was then mixed into a cup as penalty. In the end they all had to savor this yucky gnatâs piss. Apparently, kids love such kind of torture. :-D
No slug was harmed by the campfire. It was professionally rescued before the wood shavings were set on fire. Saussages and buns left over from yesterdayâs party were put to good use. Also marshmallows and stick bread. All in all, a great fun day.
Unfortunately, we cannot watch the sunset from the scout yard as it is located in a valley. But I timed the way home just perfectly.
Next week I have to sort through a thousand photos of two cameras from just this weekend. Iâm already hating myself because I was one of the photographers. And a third source of pictures will be added. Ărks.
@prologic@twtxt.net Cheers mate. Fuck me dead, I reckon sâarvo gave it away.
@thecanine@twtxt.net This classic and all-time favorite masterpiece came to mind immediately: http://myfunnymemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/The-Flying-Camel-Is-Very-Polite-As-It-Soars-The-Desert.jpg
@thecanine@twtxt.net Howdy!
Serving suggestion:
Today was our yearly scout meeting. Three glass bottles in total didnât survive the afternoon and evening. After the general meeting some of us went to the scout church service next door and then we had a nice barbie with friends and the general public.
Learning from the big ones means learning to win. :-P
Thanks, @prologic@twtxt.net. There are worse places for sure. :-)
@abucci Sums it up perfectly.
After several hours of debugging in a larger task force yesterday and today, we finally figured out that we must have ran into an XFS bug (seems to work fine on ext4). An ftruncate
syscall hung forever and hence the process was caught in an uninterruptible sleep. This was the first time I ever witnessed kill -9
not to âworkâ. But I learned a bunch of new stuff. I never dug this deep into the guts before.
Some of you probably know that /proc/$PID/syscall
tells you the current system call the process is executing. And /proc/$PID/stack
returns the kernel stack trace. Awesome stuff!
Thatâs a wonderful article on that matter: https://tanelpoder.com/2013/02/21/peeking-into-linux-kernel-land-using-proc-filesystem-for-quickndirty-troubleshooting/
@darch@neotxt.dk! Man! These are some cool pictures! The Iceland gallery was the most beautiful in total to me. How else can it be, right?! ;-) Very beautiful scenery and lovely colors overall. Iâd love to see that with my own eyes one day. Very hard to choose, but I have to highlight the following pics:

The latter one perfectly fits this sign: http://darch.dk/fotos/media/images/2023-08-aln/IMG_20230807_140853.jpg (probably a sunset, though ;-))
I had to chuckle at this one: http://darch.dk/fotos/media/images/2023-07-iceland/IMG_20230802_112551.jpg
Which brings me to the art pictures. Interesting museum visits. Mostly funny and neat ideas, but also some weird ones. I immediately liked that one (again, obviously): http://darch.dk/fotos/media/images/2023-08-aln/IMG_20230825_200517.jpg All these chairs look really cool, great photo, mate! Perfectly fits into the art category itself: http://darch.dk/fotos/media/images/2023-09-nyc/IMG_20230829_162111_HDR.jpg
That one is a good mix of nature and art combined, with a touch of ugliness, that brings its own beauty, though. Itâs a bit hard to describe, but I hope you get what I mean: http://darch.dk/fotos/media/images/2023-08-aln/IMG_20230827_114645_HDR.jpg
NY has some really ugly spots, thatâs quite a contrast. I especially get that feeling when looking at this brilliant shot: http://darch.dk/fotos/media/images/2023-09-nyc/IMG_20230830_114320_HDR.jpg It portraits the shabbiness perfectly. Iâm very glad I donât live in a concrete and glass desert but rather a town. However, I have to admit, the views from the skyscrapers arenât so bad.
Thank you very much for sharing all of them! I certainly had a blast going through them.
I covered todayâs sunrise to sunset. Sort of. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2023-09-20/
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Woooooaaaaaahhhh, geil! Iâd absolutely love to see this some day.
@mckinley@twtxt.net Some mates and I run a server and Iâm a (rather passive) member of some club. But thatâs about it. I used to attend the yarn calls every now and then when that was a thing. :-) So mostly online stuff, rarely on-site anymore. How about you?
And to finish the day off: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2023-09-18/
Todayâs morning sun made for a nice scenery: https://lyse.isobeef.org/morgensonne-2023-09-18/
We made a bike tour in the heat of the day. The sun was brutal with 27°C in the shade. Man, this one section was suuuuper steep and you couldnât hill-start anymore once stopped for a quick rest, because you just spun out the tire in the loose gravel. No chance. So we had to push (I didnât mind that, though). My mateâs battery then flattened, so he had no other choice anyways. Luckily, I have an old-school bicycle with no electronics (if you donât count the lights). So the rest of the hills werenât too bad for me, but he was huffing and puffing badly.
We had waffles with apple sauce for lunch at a closed ski hut out in nature. It was very peaceful, nobody around, just birds and critters. After resting a bit we tried out the scout camera. Todayâs mission was to get a bit familiar with that equipment. All the pictures were taken with that DSLR, a Nikon D5200 with a 18-105mm lense. Quite a heavy rig compared to my small digicam. Looking at the pics on a big screen, we gotta keep practicing. This lense is certainly not made for macro shots. We have another one thatâs probably suited for that, but I didnât want to bring the whole bag. And more zoom would also be nice for all the birds. But we donât have a larger zoom lense.
Finally, we encountered an old train from the MÀrklintage (MÀrklin days). This weekend they pulled out old locomotives and wagons and had extra tours between Göppingen (where MÀrklin, the model train manufacturer, has its headquarter) and Geislingen/Steige. Tons of people all along the tracks everywhere.
@thecanine@twtxt.net Ah, haha, itâs a really good one. I thought you drew it.
@ionores@twtxt.net Thanks, mate!
Thanks, @movq@www.uninformativ.de!
When I went to the scout meeting this evening, I first saw a colorful sky, then a shooting star above our camp fire and finally a fairly new starlink chain of about 15 satellites or I donât know how many. There is only photographic evidence of one of these events.
@prologic@twtxt.net Thanks, I got lucky there.
@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net I wash my hands of it. :-D
Hahaha, @thecanine@twtxt.net, well done! :â-D Great drawing, I like this style.

I share your opinions, @mckinley@twtxt.net and @lumen@tw.lumen.pink.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de That ainât tea bag.
Welcome back, @lumen@tw.lumen.pink! Uuuhh, thatâs a lovely photo: https://lumen.pink/notas/sobre-grilos-and-palavras/ I never had a grasshopper or mantis crawl over my finger. This must be so cool!
Agreed, @eapl.me@eapl.me, that looks fairly clean. Much more tidied than the default theme. Good job, @darch@neotxt.dk, I like it. If you see some garbage requests in your access log, do not worry, theyâre coming from me. You gotta do some input validation and error handling. :-) (E.g. see ?list=twtxt.txt_
.)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Lucky you, we didnât have any thunderstorms lately. But temps were somewhat passable. These storm chasers are a fun species. Taking it right to the next level. :-) I mean it is probably cool to see the thunderstorm from above or the inside. But better donât crash into the windows of other people.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Da geht mir auch sofort das Messer im Hosensack auf.
