just spent like half an hour finding a terminal based color picker that would just. turn the cursor into a cross hair and let me pick from the screen. in linux fashion this was somehow difficult

@xuu@txt.sour.is ROFLMAO! 🤣 reading that, the Tech bro sounded in my mind like Cow from Cow and Chicken

@prologic@twtxt.net hahahah yeah it’s a bit heavy for what i need but i do like that it’s advanced enough that it’s easy for friends to use :P

** Not what I was expecting **
A while ago I was talking with someone about books. I mentioned that I like to read capital R romance novels, and like 19th century literary realism.

This person excitedly recommended Victor LaValle’s The Changeling. Knowing nothing about it, and because I pretty much say“yes” to any book recommendation I get from a real live person that I can find at the library, I’ve been reading it.

My dude. What the fuck!? This is just horror. 🥲😨 ⌘ Read more

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz though i feel like this doesn’t need to be said because if anyone is that pretty they are not a self hoster because they regularly shower

i’ve been transitioning CLI text editors from nano (godforsaken editor) to micro (normal and not overly opinionated to the point where i feel like i’m defusing a bomb trying to learn its keybindings) and the only weird thing is that i can’t get it to persist an alias from nano to micro when i run sudo despite me configuring that. well at least on my servers, it persists on this machine. idk i’ll look at it later

@movq@www.uninformativ.de woah it’s like a cheatsheet with explanations! java is kind of arcane magic sorcery to me so i’m having trouble understanding it but i have that with most programming languages. this is like so much easier to actually look at and read instead of my eyes glazing over lol

the windows CSS frameworks are sooo epic like you mean i can click a win aero button in my browser?!?! WITCHCRAFT!

@prologic@twtxt.net that’s iconic af though like i should do the same bc i hate cloudflare that much i just refuse to use them

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh nah it came out like that lol! i actually love how squished it looks it feels accurate lol

oh yeah i think i might have a tripod around but i do need a sandbag or something i could use as one. maybe yeah a giant bag of rice could work LOL. thanks for the tips!!! i took a video class last year in college and we worked with cameras and tripods with sandbags so it was on my mind

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yeah! as long as it’s fun :D experimenting with it like picking up the camera every once in a while to point somewhere else, or in editing inserting more video in between the static angles, that could be fun!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this is why people like me can’t code this is boring eyes glazing over kinda stuff lol

10 Crucial Events That Defined Entire Eras of American History
Certain events have very clearly defined American history. The Battle of Gettysburg, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the assassination of public figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and John F. Kennedy—certainly, the list goes on from there. But just as much, there have been quite a few incredibly important events that have defined American history, […]

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it’d be a blast to record too with my camcorder! i’d have to figure out positioning and stuff like you said but i could probably figure something out with a bit of testing :P yeah it probably does make the project itself longer than it should be but i feel like if you make it a cozy kinda “sew with me” video where people watch you sew and film it with a static angle instead of like, showing every step? i think that’d be nice even if a bit boring. so i could absolutely try that.

magnetic tape camcorders omg!!! mine is digital but i’d LOVE to get a tape camcorder

@bender@twtxt.net aw thank you so much!!! rambling is the best… just gotta keep on going about what we love and somehow people like it lol!

@prologic@twtxt.net oh it’s ok! thank you for the explanation! i think for me when it comes to programming i learn best by doing, so like written examples or talking about it helps less, BUT baseline explanations like what a pointer is does help! i was so confused and i still need to fix the error i’m having but i will figure it out!

my camcorder videos are gonna go so hard yall like i can post them exclusively to my own youtube site and just do whatever tf i want with it. i should make more vlogs

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i also like the separation inherent with using dedicated devices. like i have a DAP, a fiio X1 ii from 2019, and it’s still going strong. it’s perfect for on the go music listening and i never have to worry about like going somewhere with no reception and the music drops out. it’s all local AND the battery lasts longer because i’m not using wi-fi or bluetooth or data. also i can directly access the file system and just add files anytime. this goes for my point & shoot and other devices too. i love this shit i’m such a nerd

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i think what i love about “retro” (relative to me because i was born 2004) is that it has friction but in a different way than modern tech does. sure there’s friction with getting a video from your phone to a computer unless you’re a nerd like me with android and syncthing. but not only is that something that could be but isn’t easier, it’s just… it makes sense for a camcorder from ~2009 to have the kind of friction it does

my camcorder battery & mini dvds came in the mail so i did a test recording! it’s so cool i love the crap quality. i do hope the memory stick arrives soon though because for the discs i can’t get them on my computer (not even a rom drive filesystem mount) without “finalizing” the disc which is like an old camcorder thing. i still think i’ll prefer disc recording though even if a limit of 30 minutes (or longer for lower quality) is strict. i like limitations like that

@prologic@twtxt.net this is epic… you’ve made a great platform!!! screw big tech we got literal threads here. X, The Everything App, wishes it had literal yarn threads smh my head. also twtxt is so cool like i love that yarn is a frontend for it but also its own thing. all plaintext… coolest shit ever

it’s epic that twtxt slash yarn doesn’t have reposts or likes. it’s just chill. replies and posting is all a site needs

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i’ve really wanted to make one of those sites you can curl that’s terminal friendly but looks different on the browser like how does wttr.in do it… magic

i like this little ideas utility i’ve been using like i keep pulling up the idea table to see what i’ve added and it makes me wanna start one of them like the CLI app i wanna write in golang with charmbracelet’s bubbletea even though i only have a vague idea of what i want in a CLI app

Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit alleging that its voice assistant Siri routinely recorded private conversations that were then sold to third parties for targeted ads.

From Siri “unintentionally” recorded private convos; Apple agrees to pay $95M https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/01/apple-agrees-to-pay-95m-delete-private-conversations-siri-recorded/

I’m not sure I’m convinced Apple is really that much better than the other big tech companies when it comes to this kind of thing. Their reputation is better and they do seem to be better about things like on-device encryption, but then stories like this come out.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah and far lighter than the likes of react! it kicks ass

i absolutely love that i can post here via terminal with yarnc like fedi and bsky should take notes this is epic

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz just spent like an hour playing with this and adding newjeans ASCII art this is the cutest shit ever

i’ve transitioned text editors from nano (yeah i know) to micro and god micro is just so much better i did not know there was a CLI text editor i could use with sensible keyboard shortcuts that did not leave me feeling like i’m typing nuclear codes to do simple tasks like saving and editing

10 Shocking Tales of Bodies Found in Abandoned Houses
Bodies found in abandoned houses raise questions of identity, manner, and cause of death, as well as the reasons that they came to be in the houses in the first place. Unfortunately, the answers to some of these questions are never likely to be known. Those that are determined frequently point to misfortune, drugs, and […]

** Neon **
I was bemoaning the lack of color at my desk and a friend sent me this link to a place that makes custom neon signs. I am likely much to indecisive, and faaaar too cheap to actually order one, but I keep having intrusive thoughts about what I’d get if I were to get one.

All in all it’s a supremely, deliciously, snackable game. If I had to level critique against it, it’d be that the day/nigh … ⌘ Read more
