@dbucklin@www.davebucklin.com further test. It seems Yarn is very finicky.
YouTube introduces a “stable volume” feature:

Once filmmakers realize that people just want stable volume instead of SUPER LOUD SECTIONS (…andreallyquietones…), then maybe I can finally remove the limiter from my pipewire filter chain. 🥴

Having slept for only 2 hours, I truly feel like, well, someone who has only slept 2 hours. 🤭 Can’t wait for lunch time to take a small nap.
Damn it! My camera battery didn’t charge, so all the nice deer and tad pole in a puddle imagery did not work out. :-( I saw two pairs of ears showing in the grass. Suddenly, three deer took off. One went straight into the strip of trees nearby and back behind me into the woods. The other two ran more into the meadow and then alongside the path I was taking. They unexpectedly overtook me and crossed in front of me to the other pasture. Then they headed back into the forest like rockets. Holy cow, they were super fast. Really amazing to watch. Battery flattended after the second of video I recorded in the beginning.
Do we have another crack at a Twtxt <-> ActivityPub service?
So… What does a lightweight yarnd
2.0 even look like? Hmm 🧐
Whoo! 😳 We run 5-0
(games) tonight in table-tennis 🎾 My tam mate also won her 2 singles for the first time! 😅 Whoohoo!
If you’re using jenny on Python 3.12, it will spit out a deprecation warning regarding datetime.utcnow()
. This will be fixed in the next release.
I think I’ll be doing this again:

The source code of “DOS 4” was released:
https://github.com/microsoft/MS-DOS/tree/main/v4.0
Not without issues:

(Hence “DOS 4” in quotes, is it 4.00 or 4.01? Probably the latter.)
More DOS 4 history:
I just found out about last(1)
and lastb(1)
while wondering about /var/log/wtmp. This can come in handy! The filenames remain a bit mysterious: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/127211/why-are-utmp-wtmp-and-btmp-called-as-they-are
Just found a pleasant way to wade through meetings: listening to Puccini’s “La Bohème”. Glorious!
And this one with a GUI text editor xed just in case… lorem lipsum and stuff. it looks like this one didn’t get affected at all! Hmmmm… Maybe the environment variable is called VISUAL for a reason? 🤨 207 characters and counting…
Filler text for a different terminal to see if it’s going to be
differ… Nope! Still got the new line. 🫠
… or is it vi? 🤔
logs/blog: processing some feelings
Not having a great experience with Acrobat Reader. What the heck is Adobe trying to achieve with all of these popups and annoyances?
I took advantage of the last sunny, but also 25°C hot day and hiked in the woods. It was so much more pleasant in the forest than out in the sun. The wind could have been a long stronger with that heat. I was completely soaked.
At one point I thought I better grab my camera out of my backpack, so whenever something comes up, I’m ready. But I was too lazy and thought, well, I just wait until there is a nice subject and keep going instead. No joke, ten meters further I came across two squirrels. A red and a brown one, sitting on a tree at just one and three meters height two meters away from me. If I only had unpacked my bloody cam a few seconds ago! I just watched them sit on the tree and then tried to slowly strip my backpack and grad the cam. It was still booting up when they decided it was enough sitting around and climbed higher. What a silly move on my end, damn.
I tried to improvise some Lyse Street View, but felt really uncomfortable to photograph other people’s houses. Somehow my cam produced sooo many blurred shots on the way up still away from the village, it’s unbelievable. I scrapped nearly the entire project. Only very few survived. There were heaps of people on the mountain summit, so I quickly left again.

Looking forward to next week’s rain and temperature drop to 16°C or even 8°C.
Is this for real?
According to this news piece, #Chechnya is placing a #ban on slow or fast music. And 120bpm is already too fast for them: all music should “correspond to a tempo of 80 to 116 beats per minute”.
I’m tempted to organize a to-be-banned music compilation now…

I wanted to see if anybody had made a Gopher library for Go(lang) and turns out, I know the guy who did 😂 @prologic@twtxt.net
Referring, of course, to https://git.mills.io/prologic/go-gopher
I added an Atom feed to ‘7 links of the day’. Find some curated links (a few in spanish and french) every morning.
