Watching the UTMB livestream. Any other trail fans out there tuning in?

Anybody here using mastodon regularly? What instance are you on? I can't decide on where to register 😅

I'm using mastodon.social but i think you can look the instances in their site and decide by interest.

There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.

Ah! Qoto.org! It looks like it might be gone now though :/

I decided to use mstdn.social/@zbr - I like that’s it’s not too crowded and has a 500 word limit.

The strange thing about modern loneliness is that everyone is technically available.

Maybe validity to “distance makes the heart grow fonder.” Scarcity is valuable.

Too true.

replied to:

Similar with having access to so much critically acclaimed media, but they are so emotionally or intellectually draining that I find myself rewatching ol' familiars. Availability seems just one aspect, and perhaps not even the most limiting factor. Maybe most people have a "limit" on number of "lives", as in number of times you fall in love, change, get inspired, connect, etc..

This may become a thing. Have you seen the results of PISA? School performance is going down in the OCDE and richer students are going down faster (they have more tech available). Maybe the future si for those who ditch the computers.

I've found myself really liking the "megamerge" workflow. Not an alias, just a whole thing.

What’s the difference between a script-kiddy and a real ? Abstraction. You can program your whole life without learning how to meaningfully abstract problems into simpler pieces that TRULY make the problem easier to understand. I’m not talking about design patterns or vs . These tools can help. But to really simplify something for others, you need an intellectual empathy that many simply never figure out.

My friend won 2nd place in the pc demo competition at Evoke in Köln this weekend, with his ascii-inspired demo Glyphnosis. Really happy for him! 💥

replied to:

woo that was great, happy for him! I had an Amiga too :D remember all that era so this demo resonated a lot

replied to:

That’s awesome. Congrats to your friend.

I’ve had quite the successful day cooking today: make a Dutch baby for breakfast with blueberries, a bean stew for lunch using up all the week’s odds and ends, make a coffee and walnut cake, and barbecued/slightly smoked a whole spatchcocked chicken for the first time!

last time i checked cbd was just not psychoactive at all no?

replied to:

It doesn’t have the high but it will make you more alert, kind of like tea or coffee.

replied to:

I just took a look on it yesterday and seems like the stimulant effect is there, so seems like at this point there are mix results on if it actually helps with anxiety and sleep issues. For me personally seems to work just fine but Im not 100% sure how much does it actually does something for me or is just a placebo effect. My thinking is that if I do it from time to time, I can let my body get use to the feeling of a sleep schedule without create dependency on external melatonin dosis or CBD.

I never noticed the little halfsteps in the bassline of the verses of Rebel Yell before. It's so slinky and subconscious and makes the chorus that much more.

replied to:

I'm sorry about that. Overthinking can be bad.

replied to:

it's okay now, sometimes my brain just can't seem to wrap around a few issues

hű, de izgalmas, most kúszik fel a Gemma 4 LLM a silent hawk laptopra, a dual boot-os főterminál már nem bírta az osztályharcot, remélhetőleg nem kell hozzá se vpn, se statikus ip, VirtualBoxba jön az OpenClaw ügynök, majd a humanities informatikai projekten belül beszámolok róla

hello, but exciting, Gemma 4 LLM is now crawling onto the silent hawk laptop, the dual boot main terminal couldn't handle the class struggle anymore, hopefully it won't require a vpn or static ip, the OpenClaw agent is coming to VirtualBox, I'll report on it within the humanities IT project

Any conversation
