The #fedimap is a map of the Fediverse users. Everyone can mark or unmark themselves.

Here's how you add yourself:

• Grab your coordinates by clicking on a location on https://fedimap.de/en/
• Don't use your exact location obviously 😉
• Send a private message to @fedimap with your coordinates like this:
• @fedimap !in 54.88889467,23.93083513

Done!

Looking forward to meet people in #brussels 😀

The project's code is https://codeberg.org/Lioh/Fedimap.

Maps form a fedimap with currently 637 users registered, mostly in Europe.

Loneliness is the biggest disease of our time. What do you do for yourself and for others to combat it?

Thinking about what the next larger daily source reading is going to be.

What a strange time. I just read this sentence in an article about an HTTP client:

"Lightweight : Just 157~ KB in size"

Sorry but 157 KB is NOT lightweight. Especially for an alternative to "fetch".

The early Web had a quality that has been lost ever since: it was *simple*

Download #httpd , #netscape write some #html by hand and boom, the concept of a networked digital society is born.

It first started going pear shaped with #LAMP . The complexity of a full blown database was not justified for most use cases. As proven decades later by the popularity of #sqlite and #ssg approaches.

The final blow was when #bigtech got into the act. Immense complexity for the simplest things became a moat

Wondering if #PhanpySocial users know that the composer can be minimized or popped out as a separate window (only on desktop)? 🤔

We should all get used to no longer saying "GitHub" but "Microsoft AI GitHub" just so it's clearer where your code lies and for what purpose.

i’ve been training since the end of 2019, first with a trainer for over two years, when i switched to my home gym: consistency plummeted and minor injuries happened more often hindering my progress :)

5x5 is my current favorite, but i’d love to explore and try new things.

estonian forests and swamps are amazing 🤩 it's so good i don't want to leave my homestead.

for me the hardest thing with lifting is consistency. two main obstacles in the recent past:

⁃ progressing too fast and getting injured (tendons are adopting much slower than muscles)

⁃ traveling or some other interruptions (hard to get back after skipping a week)

the first addressed by adjusting my program to much slower progression.

the second—by switching from two long workouts per week to two very short workouts per day. same volume per week, just more often. (basic home gym setup helps). i still skip workouts but skipping one doesn't feel so bad 😅

good luck with your moving and stay hard 💪

I'm so unbelievably addicted to the #Indieweb / #smallweb.

To feed my addiction, I have found yet another search machine that finds non-commercial sites. Send help! https://marginalia-search.com/explore

All your personal sites are SO COOL. Drop yours below, please! twitch twitch

Why is the menu on your website not just a page with links?

Learning raycasting. This feels like another one of those game dev milestones. #picotron as ever

also please boost and/or recommend any cool capsules ❤️

It's so weird that a lot of people think the quality of software is measured in how often it gets updated—it's literally the opposite.

I've just published Snk on itch.io for Playdate owners. For free. If you play, tell me about your experience, or if you have any problems, I'll be happy to help.

You can download it here: https://gunbolt.itch.io/snk

You know, a glass teletype. That toy that kids keep calling a "monitor," even though we all know monitors are reference speakers used in audio production.

I had the privilege of penning an article for the latest issue of Good Internet Magazine!

It is all about the process of making and experiencing art and how friction and inefficiency needn’t be dirty procurances to avoid and evade.

If you enjoy this article, you might consider picking up the physical print copy of the magazine, which you can buy on the site. A proper palpable paper printing of passionate prose for your pleasant perusal.

> "Many personal website owners
deliberately choose inefficient methods
for updating their sites. They write
HTML by hand, upload files directly
via FTP, or maintain static sites that
require manual intervention for even
simple changes. These choices would
be considered backwards in a
professional context, but they serve
important psychological and creative
functions"

i try to push shell as far as it reasonably goes. for most tasks, sh, find, grep, sed, and cut is more than enough. only when things become truly complex or painfully slow do i reach for another language.

i used to care a lot about strict portability, but in practice i only run my scripts on macos and #openbsd. that simplifies things: if shellcheck is happy, i'm happy. i'm 99% sure my scripts work on other unix-like systems, but i don't feel the need to check.

what really draws me to shell is that it's always there. it's part of the base system, requires no extra installation, and the runtime has been stable for decades. that stability translates directly into confidence: shell scripts feel future-proof.

i know i can run something like ssg.sh ten years from now and it will still work --- certainly on #openbsd, and hopefully on macos too. there's no dependency churn, no worrying about the "right" version of python or ruby, and no hoping the ecosystem hasn't moved on.

it just runs.

This is very slow. And that's not caused by the old CPU. Hopefully a new ssd + ide>sata adapter will arrive soon.

i'm thinking how to make smallest possible backups...
