everyone’s asleep and the pitter-patter of rain can be heard on the window. i
keep forgetting to write here, but at least i’m still writing. i’m a little
exhausted and sleepy, but it’s been a long time since i’ve had some alone time
to just write, so that’s what i’m doing.
i’m writing this in vim, like usual, but i recently turned of syntax

I use Firefox as my preferred web browser both on PCs and my phone. One extension is always installed: uBlock Origin. The web is so much nicer with all the ads and tracking removed.

The BBS is back On-Line, with more games a-comin’!
One of the chief goals of The House of Lunduke BBS is to preserve the best of 1980’s and 1990s BBS gaming — in all its ANSI, colorful text art glory. With that goal in mind, I recently took the BBS Off-Line for a much needed retro-fit… in order to properly accommodate a wider selection of classic BBS “Door” Games. ⌘ Read more

Went on a hike this evening and brought my camera along. The 26°C felt much nicer than yesterday's 33°C. I perfectly met a mate who also wanted to go for a quick walk, just like we planned it. The first half hour we went together and then I parted for the longer route to the local mountain. The sunset was absolutely brilliant, but the aftermath turned out to be very boring.

@prologic@twtxt.net Haha, the colors :-D @ionores@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Thank you mates! Well, there is a gelatine factory in the next city, but that is quite far away from where I was. You only smell that awful stuff (it’s also a different stench) if you’re close by. Probably just dying animals and the temperatures are not helping here. The vomits remain a mystery, though.

@ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com I always enjoy crafts stuff, very nice! How did you make these golden speckles? Put color on a stiffer brush and then pull back the fibers to shoot the color through the air onto the guitar body?
I’m trying to switch from Konversation to irssi. Let’s see how that goes. Any irssiers out there who can recommend specific settings or scripts? I already got myself trackbar.pl and nickcolor.pl as super-essentials. Also trying window_switcher.pl. Somehow my custom binds for Ctrl+1/2/3/etc. to switch to window 1/2/3/etc. doesn’t do anything: { key = "^1"; id = "change_window"; data = "1"; } (I cannot use the default with Alt as this is handled by my window manager). Currently, I’m just cycling with Ctrl+N/P. Other things to solve in the near future:
- better, more colorful and compact theme (just removed clock from statusbar so far)
- getting bell/urgency hints working on arriving messages
- nicer tabs in status bar, maybe even just channel names and no indexes
- decluster status bar with user and channel modes (I never cared about those in the last decade)

@mckinley@twtxt.net Being German I naturally don’t care for flags, but I have to admit the colored version on your website looks even nicer than the black and white one here. Are JGS at the very end the true initials of your name? And I can’t resist to ask which two states you left out? ]:-> Anyways, enjoy your holiday!

Understanding Color Management
I worked on a project where I dived deep into understanding how modern
color management works, including things like color spaces, ICC profiles
and more. As I learnt here and there, I decided to write this post, both
for my future self, and others who may struggle with some of the
concepts as well.

colors across a variety of devices. Throughout this post, we’ll use
