Hah, tweet-like-me.xyz with my old twitter handle is great. “Agreed. Should we therefore call for »epsilon umeshisms«?”

I’m not an intellectual, I’m just a guy who likes to f**k.

@(frogorbits.com) “@niplav interesting, it seems like you uploaded at least two weeks worth of posts sometime between yesterday and right now” -> Yes. I have changed my interaction with the internet a little bit – uploading/downloading in batches, not constantly online, to prevent my attention becoming even more damaged than it is now.

play/pause/stop is not a great interaction, but it does count. thinking of interactive music as a gradient rather than a dichotomy (interactive vs non-interactive) seems like a healthier way to think about things. #halfbakedideas

@prologic@twtxt.net check out this project for detecting language in two like strings. Could be useful when paired with translation services.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net (#prfrhba) this is true if like me you have code in their arctic vault in Norway. 😑

Seems a iOS is being looked into but because it has no central server it can’t do background app like iOS requires.

Any of y’all seen https://briarproject.org? It’s another fledgling decentralized chat like session but minus the weird blockchain.. it has group chat, forums, and blogs. Also can work via Bluetooth or tor.

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk @prologic@twtxt.net 👋 keeping busy. Been working like crazy to put away for a down payment on a new house. Summer is looking to be even more.

I feel like this could be borderline useful if I stuck a web UI on it. 🤔

I wrote a ‘banner’-like program for Plan 9 (and p9p) that uses the Unicode box drawing characters: http://txtpunk.com/banner/index.html

I want to somehow use my monome grid to build out coarse vocal tract shapes for a physical model like !voc or @!(sndkitref “tract”)!@. 16 diameters with 8 steps of resolution, or 32 diameters with 4 steps of resolution. #halfbakedideas

i’m not really advocating that anybody should be on more networks, but FWIW libera.chat has been very nice, the staff has been doing a great job, and it’s the nearest “spiritual successor” to what we all liked about Freenode.

¯_(ツ)_/¯ It’s a funky mechanical thing running QMK, but I have two others that fit that description which don’t behave like this.
