↳ In-reply-to » Regarding https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-10-31/0/POSTING-en.html, @movq: Despite having watched meillo's talk on troff and friends¹ over one and a half decades ago (and thus forgotten everything), it feels soooo alien, I'm surprised. I should really look into this myself. I frequently use gq} and gqG. They're real lifesavers.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah! It was precisely that talk that got me into groff/troff in the first place. 😊 Haven’t seen it in a while. Maybe I should have rewatched it before making that blog post. 😅

The groff syntax is quite alien indeed. Because it’s so terse. I mean, have fun decyphering stuff like that:

#Magic update - for the 2nd time in a row, I went 2 for 2 (this time, in a pair of 3-player games).

For game 1, I ran a re-tweaked “Jace and the Echoverse” deck (a modified version of the recent Reality Fracture precon), dominating most of the game before pulling a 1-2 punch of making my creatures indestructible and then blowing up the board (so the other 2 players both quit, including an Ur-Sphinx deck). Then, for game 2, I ran my nearly-perfected Dune deck, which pulled out to a surprising early lead before finally winning with an unblockable commander (killing 1 opponent outright and making the other quit again).

I gotta say, I’m really digging both of these decks: not only do they win more often than not, but they’re both thematic as hell and fun to play. I plan to add them to my decklists page soon.

↳ In-reply-to » My first Halloween one-shot of 2026 is in-the-bag (as of about 90 minutes ago).

I (mostly) completed my second Halloween one-shot for 2026 earlier today. It went much quicker than last night’s game, but we had to cut it short due to a scheduling conflict, so there’s another 1-3 hours session probably still to go (and 🤞 we’ll get to finish it).

Both sessions were alot of fun, and really rekindled my interest in role-gaming. I hope to get back to regular campaign play after the new year, and I’ve already been bouncing some ideas off of some of my heavy players.

#Magic Update: This week, our Magic time was up against the local team’s Sportsball game, so we only had 4 players to start. I decided to try out a brand new deck, a lightly modified version of the new Jace, Multiverse Architect preconstructed deck that I picked up from my FLGS a few days ago, and let me tell you, that deck dominated, with everyone else quitting around the 90 minute mark. I know much of it was luck (especially in the early game), but it was so much fun to play, I look forward to breaking it out again… in a few weeks. 😁

By the time the second game started, the local team had won their Sportsball game (yay, sports team!), so it was one of our usual 5-player affairs. This time, I played my old-school Defenders of the Mirth deck, and it held up long enough for all but one other player to quit, and then I killed on my next turn with a truckload of unblockable commander damage at about the 2 hour mark. That put me at a rare 2/2 overall for the day. Good times! 🤘

I love those!! and have been thinking about giving it a try too but never got to. I’ve seen people making pin-hole cameras out of soda cans and match boxes then setting them in random/remote areas for a couple of days… the whole process makes it really fun.

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse What is that “tower” in the top left of 05? 🤔 And wow, 20 and 21 are great!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de There are some other interesting facts about this funnel shaped tower. Now that this message is long enough that jenny has cut off the first few words for the subject, I can be sure that it’s not spoiled right away. This wall of text for the introduction also helps with any other clients.

Please excuse me, I hope you had some fun reading my fictional explanation. It’s just a water tower: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasserturm_Eichert

Interesting, I didn’t know that water towers are basically obsolete these days.

@david@daiwei.me I use OpenBSD’s smtpd, which was super easy to set up. It gets a little bit more complicated these days because you also need a DKIM setup, so every outgoing mail goes from smtpd to dkimproxy and back to smtpd. And then dovecot for POP3/IMAP (has basically nothing to do with the other two).

I’m cheating a bit, though: I use config management on top, which means that all the UNIX users and mailboxes and directories are created by that. If you were to do that manually, it would be a huge pain.

Maybe I’ll write a blog post about this some day, just for fun. 🤔

JMAP? Never heard of it.

↳ In-reply-to » Today, I released a new update to my TTRPG project, The Planar Vagabond's Guide to the Multiverse, adding a handful of new spells, monsters, magic items, and races.

@prologic@twtxt.net Yes, @david@daiwei.me is correct - it is a website with (most) everything one would need to run a fantasy tabletop role-playing game, either in-person or online. I use a service called Roll20 which provides a “shared” tabletop with virtual maps, dice, and character sheets that all the players can see (and I can control). It’s really alot of fun - it’s basically adult make-believe, but with a shared set of rules and a “game master” to keep the story moving. 😁

@jecxjo@sh0.xyz Always using UTC in logs helps a ton.

The worst are logs were timestamps miss any timezone information at all. Makes me furious.

Dealing with time is always great fun…

↳ In-reply-to » I've been away with the scouts in our district summer camp. The nearly two weeks were absolutely amazing, mentally a great vacation. On the other hand, physically not so much. But I've still got Monday to recover from my holiday. :-)

And here some photos of the crazy kitchen we had at our glamping trip. Of course, it was waaaaaaaaaaaaay oversize. It’s typically used to feed several hundred people, not just only 70ish. Although it was really fun to work in, cleaning the whole thing took an entire day. We completely underestimated this.

Awful 33°C today. But I had to move, no matter what. So, I went outside. At first, the sun was out a bit. It was brutal. Later it vanished behind the clouds. But the humidity was still through the roof.

I watched the corn harvest I came across. Dusty as hell, but it was great fun observe the machineries work.

Going up my backyard mountain, there weren’t many people around. I was pleasantly surprised. However, the smaller hill below was rather crowded. Many people with picnic mats, enjoying their dinner, painting A3 love letters, claiming all available benches, taking wedding photos, walking their dogs, etc.

The public barbecue site at the summit is still closed due to the ongoing fire hazard. I found it rather funny to see a fire extinguisher ready to go next to it. The bread and cake smell disclosed that the Mountain Baking Boys were active. The large oven right next to the BBQ was still going strong.

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse Huh, didn’t expect that. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Hahaha, a festival, indeed! :-D There was also “Raupenkrieg” (caterpillar war): jumping against each other in sleeping bags. I reckon that counts as pogo or mosh pit.

And back in the days, we had wonderful deep mud all around us, too! In extreme years we even needed to leave the camp ground for a day and walk to a gym with all the kids. There was just too much rain and the creek dangerously high.

We once had an actual creek running through the dining tent before the kids arrived. Luckily, it didn’t originate from the official creek, but the water came down the hillside. Unimaginable today with all these droughts in summer. Many creeks around here are dried up for several weeks, if not months now.

There you go, enjoy my favorite selection of yummy chocolate on the ground!

It was a question of the mindset. Once we supervisors just made the best out of it and tried to had fun, the kids typically didn’t mind the mess either. Besides building huts, one of the most favorite things ever was actually “Matschschöpfen” (scooping mud). The kids scooped puddles into wheel barrows using giant soup ladles from the kitchen. “Sorry kids, time is up for today. Whoever sits in the closing circle first gets to go first tomorrow.” Unfortunatly, I don’t find any photos from that.

In #Magic last night, I debuted my new #Dune deck with an underwhelming performance - perhaps unsurprisingly for a desert-focused deck, I faced a real drought, starting the game with only 1 land in hand (even after a mulligan) and not pulling another land until turn 4(!). Because of our house starting mana, I wasn’t totally sunk, but everything I got out was just luck. I did die last thanks to my big wurms (so I guess I was 2nd place?), but still… underwhelming.

For game 2, I wanted to bring the thunder (especially after my pitiful performance last week), so I dusted off my Night of 1000 Squirrels deck (headed by the infamous Chatterfang, Squirrel General). By turn 3, the #squirrel army was forming, and thanks to well-timed casts of Fog and Make a Stand, the squirrels managed to overrun everyone just a few turns later.

Another fun night overall. I won’t be able to play for the next few weeks, so I’m glad this one ended with a win. 😁 #mtg

@david@daiwei.me It’s like Rummy but with more freedom which makes it a hell lot more interesting. You’re allowed to manipulate everything that’s on the table, trigger jokers, recombine the cards as long as there are at least three in a row after your move, not just simply add cards to existing rows (or whatever the correct terminology is). It’s good fun and mental exercise.
