@annika@xoxo.zone a space marathon (on earth) would be to use the harness in the opposite direction so that it counteracts the effect of gravity

Also, https://codeberg.org/haydn/typesetter looks useful as a GUI #typst editor! Just found it.
Bible study notes from the book of Acts. I want to replace the turquoise ink with something else. Maybe black, dark grey or brown. Please share your suggestions.
For some weird reason there's a hangover from school days of being forbidden to use red (teachers) or green (principal) ink.
Pens: Sheaffer and TWSBI Diamond 580 Iris.
Ink: Pilot Iroshizuku Asa Gao (blue). Pelilan 4001 (turquoise).

you had me at "unofficial client"
It's April and I haven't read a single book!
Edit:
In my defence, I spend hours each day reading Wikipedia articles, blog posts, random forum comments.
I have been writing on paper, but it's mostly unpublished. It's just that I haven't done the chore of transcribing it and pushing a new version of my website.
Claude Code's leaked source code, gave me no small satisfaction that even I can write better code than some of the greatest and highest paid engineers in world.
Looking at the quality of the code, they've clearly taken their eyes off the ball in terms of software engineering.
Placing them on that pedestal, was my mistake.
Things that give me a headache:
- stress
- hunger
- dehydration
- no caffeine
- hot weather
- not wearing sunglasses
- crying
Things that cause me nausea:
- cramped vehicles
- winding roads
- stress
Out of these, seven happened yesterday, so I did have a headache and felt nauseous.

Have a nice day!

@TimmyMac@social.vivaldi.net I personally prefer pens with a piston filling mechanism like say the TWSBI Diamond 580. Piston converters are fine, but have a lower capacity.
Not a fan of cartridges, but they can be refilled and carried along, so when on the go that can save you from having to carry a bottle of ink.

@palomakop fossil is easy to host. I host it for the wiki functionality, but at some point may host some code there as well.
I don't think I have caught the attention of the crawlers. If that ever happens, I'll end up going with the recommended mitigation strategy

@deobald@fantastic.earth what's your opinion on wxWidgets. I have used a program (TreeSheets) on Win, Mac and Linux and it worked well on all three.

@crmsnbleyd@hachyderm.io doesn't this means 'unity' and not 'ekkada' outside?

@amenonsen@flipping.rocks Yeah, we have to be extremely picky about this.
While watching TV shows, I stop watching at the inflection point where I feel the story is meandering. I'm not a completionist that way.
"ditching things at the slightest hint of an internal twitch" yeah I'm gonna live by this. What else do we have to go by other than our gut?
Looks like a good book https://ahelwer.ca/post/2026-09-21-concurrency-textbook/
Finally found some good mangoes this season.
This is near MarketYard. Totally worth the visit.

@annika I went to the website and read multiple articles, but I am not able to understand how they work.
Is it some noise cancellation thing that requires them to be charged, or is it some physical device that permits less sound into your ears?
Never mind, found this https://www.reddit.com/r/neurodiversity/comments/1kd3v0p/do_loop_earplugs_actually_cancel_noise_or_are/
Has anyone here read the Odyssey?
Is it a good idea to do it before the movie comes out?
I thought I'll learn something and started listening to a Systems Design podcast.
The content seemed fine to me, but I heard them say "InJinks" for NGINX, and "CeeAyePee" Theorem for CAP Theorem.
Now, it seems like it's AI generated and I can't find the names of the hosts anywhere.
Unfortunately, the content is decent, so I'm feeling conflicted.
What would you do in this situation?

@henry@radikal.social seeing that WP plays a big role in training models, it's in no one's interest to have widespread LLM usage there
Unfollowed some accounts, to bring my count below the (arbitrarily decided) 200 mark.

@tiefling@bardicperspiration.club I'm mostly posting for my own entertainment.
I have fun reading old stuff that I've written, if anyone else likes it or is inspired by it, that's a bonus

@kawaiipunk I've got several gigabytes of an old .ssb directory from 2022. Hope this works with that! 🤞🏽
