The nice API makes me wonder how hard it would be to put together a lightweight twtxt desktop client; maybe I’ll look at that next week.

One week after I set up my first mail server I’m done with the polishing and it looks like it’s pretty state-of-the-art: https://mecsa.jrc.ec.europa.eu/en/finderRequest/0ff350307d4c4170d17be9118ad7c2e8 😃

Another week, another instruction compiling, more refinements of the code-generator: https://mastodon.social/@akkartik/103157776545612964

I said that I would publish an article last week, but I just couldn’t find the time, and it’s been a while since my blog hasn’t been updated :(

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Oh ok, well I’ll let you do your stuff then. Just, try not to break anything from the universe. Thanks

I have the feeling that this is going to be a looooong week

@von@tilde.town no worries, I have days/weeks/years like that

i’ve been insanely productive this week… usually my manic states don’t go on for this long but we’re pushing three days

i’m going without a laptop for a week… i’m really excited about it and day 1 was great so far

Monday is Data Privacy Day. Celebrate by clicking on a thai death metal video & letting autoplay follow that connection in the background for a week.

All this end of year stuff is coming in too quick. It’s the first week of december. Wasn’t Halloween the other day or somehting?

Short work week and about half the office is out.

Demiurges delight in crafting garden-path worlds: Innocuous but occasionally one stumbles into inputs that trigger a full reparse and take mere humans out for weeks while their worldview rebuilds, it’s how gods tell jokes

Another fun day of loading data, so people can test the new system next week.

Book idea (high effort, dunno if I’ll do it): a survey of alternative computing systems in the style of Seven Languages in Seven Weeks. What should I include other than smalltalk, colorforth, oberon, templeos, and menuet?

While it’s been a short week here, I’m ready for the weekend already.

I love working with 3rd Party software. When you have an issue you get to put in a ticket and then wait weeks for a response.

For weeks I’ve been getting 400 trying to load any youtube page on one machine (on chrome), and starting last week another machine started having the same problem. Any idea what’s happening?

The best thing about Youtube’s recent ranking changes is that PMJ and Pomplamoose have a new album’s worth of covers every two weeks.

Life hack: find the video in your youtube recommendations you’re least interested in watching, click on it, turn off your speakers, and leave your house for a week.

Meanwhile, the weather reports seemed to have fallen into a different timeline entirely. They hadn’t matched reality in weeks, yet one only discussed the topic when the evenings became late and the beers empty

Bad idea of the day: a game show with fantastic cash prizes, where contestants distinguish between real and fake headlines from the past week.

In the last two weeks the company laid off two of the programmers. Which is crazy since we are just about to embark on a huge system conversion.

I’ve been really quite the last months … we went on 6 weeks parental leave to south africa and just returned.

You drop your phone, a twinkling cloud escapes the shattered screen, and even weeks later you still find pixels in your clothes

I think this week I’ll look at a bare bone PHP CLI for a twtxt client. Just for fun mind you

@alip@dev.exherbo.org Hi alip! I’ve missed so many new twtxt users over the last weeks.

They’re really fond of zip files for some reason. If you open one that’s been undisturbed for a few weeks, you may see a catbot scamper away

You install an anti-mosquito laser and a week later find a family of pixies dead on your lawn with horrible burns across their bodies

Later on, burglars start facehugging victims. With (illegal) sensory overrides, it often takes them a week to figure out something is wrong.

So, after weeks of neglecting my twtxt feed, i try to tweet more often. I think i was simply a little burnt out after roster and txtnix.

Worked the last weeks on https://github.com/mdom/tapsig/, a tap library to test unix commands. Would be interested in any kind of feedback!

She finds an old dreamcatcher in the attic and accidentally drops it. Dreams scamper off into the shadows and she has nightmares for weeks.

Quake for Oculus Rift
My Oculus Rift CV1 finally arrived last week, so of course I had to update my fork of the excellent Quakespasm engine for the new Oculus 1.4 API.

While I was at it, I also fixed a number of bugs, included support for the Rift’s headphones and the XBox One controller – I’d still recommend you play with mouse & keyboard, though. Controls are set up with reasonable defaults, but you can of course change everything in the options menu. There’s also … ⌘ Read more

The drug produces lasting insights but during the week-long comedown, everything looks obvious and boring.

Violin lessons
Just as they started, randomly, on a whim, as a child desire to learn to play the violin, the lessons that Kent has been taking for almost two years came to an end two weeks ago. It was hard to tell Julie — his teacher — that he was not to continue, but it was what he wanted.

Kent never intended to play violin professionally, it was no more than an artistic hobby. As such, he can hold the violin and extract out of it some lamenting notes. This entry is for the records. Who knows, maybe one day … ⌘ Read more
