i started a little thing on my dreamwidth and called it a flash prompt box. basically it’s a limited time thing where people can prompt me for stuff i’m offering, like short fanfiction, photoshop-edited user icons, music recs, and a bit more! i’m having sooo much fun with it so far it’s been a blast just making stuff for friends :)

also more friends are making their own posts with the same concept which is SO cool to see

Today, I did my longest bike tour this year so far. I went north to a lake in a neighboring district, mostly following the Weser-Harz-Heide route, which I already partly followed on my journey from Kassel to Braunschweig last year. There I sat down on a bench for half an hour and then returned. I had plenty of headwinds on the way there and a bit of tailwind on the way back, although the wind was mostly from the side. This time, I luckily did not mess up the OsmAnd tracking. Despite the wind, it was a lot of fun! ⌘ Read more

slowing working away at my latest code project: learning PHP by recreating the 2000s fandom mainstay known as a fanlisting! it’s been super fun i added a dynamic nav bar and other modifications in the latest commit

fanlistings even to this day rely on old PHP scripts dating back to the early 2000s that need whole ass mySQL or postgres DBs and are incredibly insecure. you can look at them here they’re like super jank lol it’s sad that new fanlistings have to use them because there’s no other options….

i’m slowly learning nixOS as part of my new fujocoded contract thing and as scary as it is it’s highkey kinda fun. like what do you mean i configure the bootloader with one god damn line in a file that’s EPIC

i don’t think any of you know what a fan listing is but basically it was a fandom thing in the 2000s where people would make websites that other people could sign up for to show they’re a fan of something. more info here.

anyway i made a fan listing kinda thing in PHP to learn the language. it was fun af

The VTech Socratic method
We’ve had a lot of fun with VTech’s computers in the past on this blog.

@prologic@twtxt.net these sound so fun! i’m all for them

@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm, speaking of locally running “AI” stuff: Someone on Mastodon has this in their profile description:

My profile pic is AI modified to prevent deepfakes. I used local Stable Diffusion on my solar powered 7900XTX to average a few selfies.

That sounds like a fun thing to do. Do I have a chance of doing that on my old box from 2013 without a dedicated GPU? 😂

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz well gamja works fine and all with other people’s networks but I WANT MY OWN LITTLE NETWORK. FOR FUN

New bike season
Yesterday, I started my new bike season and took my bike for a fun ride of about 25 km. I rode the first part of the “Städtepartnerschaftsradweg Braunschweig - Magdeburg” (City partnership cycle path Braunschweig - Magdeburg) between my hometown and a village called Königslutter. The weather was perfect and I truly enjoyed it. For the way back, I took the train that I reached just in time. ⌘ Read more

Pinellas County Long Run: 18.03 miles, 00:10:14 average pace, 03:04:35 duration
fun run… broke it up in 5km segments. around 14 miles in started to just take it a bit easier because the legs just got a bit tired. pretty good for crap sleep and/or rest.

i really wanna learn golang it looks fun and capable and i can read it kind of but every time i try it i’m immediately stuck on basic concepts like “what the fuck is a pointer” (this has been explained to me and i still don’t get it). i did have types explained to me as like notes on code which makes sense a bit but i’m mostly lost on basic code concepts

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hahahah i for one hate sleeping and need to be busy 24/7 or else i go insane so server stuff is awesome for my ADHD ass!!!

IaaS does seem kinda interesting to me, i think i could vibe with that more than full on cloud stuff

i hope i can be one of those people who does the barebones stuff bc i am a rare sicko who finds it fun and cloud stuff scares me LMAOOOO

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh yeah i use the CLI sometimes it’s fun af

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Using full-blown Cloud services is good for old people like me who don’t want to do on-call duty when a disk fails. 😂 I like sleep! 😂

Jokes aside, I like IaaS as a middle ground. There are IaaS hosters who allow you to spin up VMs as you wish and connect them in a network as you wish. You get direct access to all those Linux boxes and to a layer 2 network, so you can do all the fun networking stuff like BGP, VRRP, IPSec/Wireguard, whatever. And you never have to worry about failing disks, server racks getting full, cable management, all that. 😅

I’m confident that we will always need people who do bare-bones or “low-level” stuff instead of just click some Cloud service. I guess that smaller companies don’t use Cloud services very often (because it’s way too expensive for them).

i wonder if i could make a little yarn widget for my site to show my last post. that’d be fun. sadly i do not know javascript

i have got to try the jenny yarn client it looks so fun and old school……..

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed it. The beginning part about the history of life on Earth was fun to watch having just read Dawkin’s old book The Selfish Geene, and now I want to read more about archaea. The end of the talk about what might be going on on Mars made me a bit hopeful someone will find some good evidence.

i haven’t talked fandom here much let’s change that. i might re-run my DC comics ficathon again. i ran it late december through to the end of february last year and it was fun af even if it moved slowly. kinda wanna run it again but i don’t wanna have to promote it.
