Sometimes, I wonder how my desktop looks to other people. Normal sighted people, I mean. For me, everything is much smaller and always slightly blurry (almost antialiased) because of my eyesight.
Maybe it does look horribly pixelated and super ugly to other people, and that’s why everyone prefers smoothed fonts and UIs and all that … ? 😂
Speaking of Sudoku, I was banging my head against this for 15 minutes:

I’m glad I eventually got it right. 🥴
(#5is4vwa) @arne@uplegger.eu Hm, noch nie gemacht. 🤔 Machst du das von Hand oder mit Code?
(#fzmmn2q) @zvava@twtxt.net Good question. This is the spec, I think:
https://twtxt.dev/exts/metadata.html#nick
It doesn’t say much. 🤔
In the wild, I’ve only seen “traditional” nick names, i.e. ASCII 0x21 thru 0x7E.
My client removes anything but r'[a-zA-Z0-9]' from nick names.
(#r3ai2ya) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Omg, that is great. 😃
(#ydo3kuq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I didn’t know they had a name, to be honest. When I/we last had a dot matrix printer, I just sat alone in the basement and made these. 😂
(#tvqrs2q) @bender@twtxt.net Sigh. So it’s just me. Again. 😂
Next level poop: Can’t log in to reddit anymore with adblock enabled. It says invalid usename or password.
(#6pxioka) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, I’ve corrupted a Git repo or two doing that … 🥴
(#s5wriqq) @zvava@twtxt.net I was about to suggest that you post some examples. By now, we’re pretty good at debugging hashing issues, because that happens so often. 😂 But it looks like you figured it out on your own. ✌️
Can’t resist.
(#6ishh6q) @prologic@twtxt.net I completely forgot about that topic … 😂🥴
(#7cq2pfa) (Yes, she’s the one who did that Wisky bit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HDBSm2s18s )
We’ve got a new feature!
(#m3mcgia) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ouch 😲
(#nohbfvq) @dce@hashnix.club Nope. 😃 What’s that genre called? Sounds like old horror movies from the 70’ies (or it could be a soundtrack to Salad Fingers, if anyone remembers that).
(#epzhfwq) @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I hope so 😅
I have a feeling that learning to play electric double bass through an amplifier was a big mistake.
At the core, this is an acoustic instrument. If you play it through an amp, you will instinctively only do the bare minimum to get some sound going, because the amp does the heavy lifting. But it’s just not right.
This is a very physical instrument. It needs a lot of force and strength – in comparison, an electric bass guitar is almost flimsy and delicate. I need to “feel” what’s going on and that’s just not the case when using headphones.
I feel like I wasted ~3 years. 🫤 But maybe it’ll get better from now on …
Made this a few weeks ago, just listened to it again and I quite like it:

This is just one instrument: Electric bass guitar + EBow. And echo/delay on top. But it’s a single track, single take. It amazes me quite a bit how much you can do with that little thing. 🤯
(#2wvfbdq) @dce@hashnix.club I’ve never heard of weirdcore before, but it’s kind of intriguing. 😃
(#ukdtj7q) @dce@hashnix.club The difference in brightness is pretty big. When the Moon is completely inside of the Earth’s shadow, you can see the red tint:
As soon as direct sunlight returns, even just a little bit, the Moon looks mostly normal again.
(#yrlctka) Yeah, it’s probably overkill. 🙈
(#ukdtj7q) Oops, maybe I should have posted a reminder. 🥴
@dce@hashnix.club By the time you posted your twt, the red phase was already over. 🙈 Stellarium has a pretty good simulation of the whole thing.
