This is my first post. One more time.

Hey folks 👋 Today I announce the re-release of the Twtxt Search Engine now live and running and actively re-crawling and re-indexing. 🎉 Please report bugs or any useability issues to me! 🙏 #Twtxt #Search

@GabesArcade's Arcade@gabesarcade.com You will want to either build a client or use one of the ones listed here -- Either way you choose! 👌 I just noticed as well in this Twt I'm replying to (threading is a thing™) that you @-mentioned @bender incorrectly 😅

@Gabe's's Arcade@gabesarcade.com Welcome to Twtxt / Yarn.social 😅

I’m trying something different, something radical, and I know not everyone will catch the vision.

Coding without AI: a revolutionary new way to work

I need to get back into using twtxt.

I see this is a reply to @bender's reply to my post (#b36hpsa). You should look into a client that includes hashes / "reply" functionality, or it won't show up as a reply, even for those that follow you.

Welcome to twtxt @Gabe's ! Just started following you.

My mate and I hiked up the backyard mountain. We got 25°C and quite some wind, so it was actually not too terrible. The wind could have blown harder or the temps a little lower, but oh well.

I saw the squirrel's bushy tail stick up on the forest floor in the sunlight and immediately thought of this cute little feller. Since it didn't move at all, even when we came closer, I got irritated and reconsidered that it might actually be some kind of dried up farn. But then we also were able to see its body. Unfortunately, the squirrel ran up the tree too quickly, so all the shots are kinda crap.

At one flower spot, there were sooo many butterflies, wasps, flies, bugs and other insects. The botanic was completely crowded.

The workers were transferring logs from one log truck to the other in a parking lot. I've never seen this happening before. When we passed the same place on the way home, they had moved logs into a sea container. That was surprising. This semi wasn't there on the way there. One log was probably too long and sticking out the container, so they probably had to wait for somebody to return with a chainsaw. Crazy that they're shipping logs from here probably overseas. Why else would they put them in a sea container?

After our first break, a blackbird was really posing for us with his worm in the dark shade.

Today was my first time I ever saw a hummingbird hawk-moth (Taubenschwänzchen) for real. My mate photographed them many, many times before, but I never came across one myself. So, that was really special.

The forest service installed an outdoor table with two benches next to the timber lion, that was cool to see. We sat down for a few minutes and enjoyed both the view into the Fils valley and ant on the tabletop, but the sun was beating down too heavily on us, so we had to move on.

All in all, it was a very nice few hours long hike. Enjoy! https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2026-07-03/

Java 1.3 on Windows 95 with Proton as the editor could be another option for next Advent of Code.

Win95 runs pretty smoothly on my old box (no surprise, that box came with Win95) and I like Java, so … why not …

Not sure about the speed, though. 🥴

I just read @kat’s blog post over here:

Jesus, it must be so overwhelming for young people to get started with programming.

When I started programming, there was the built-in ROM BASIC of that PC and probably a bit of BASIC on a floppy, and that was it. Nowadays? Millions of libraries and frameworks and languages and what not – and, much worse, there’s the expectation that you need to make something fancy. When I started, printing something and understanding IF was good enough.

Installing software was (is?) such an incomprehensible mess on Windows … Why did you allow any program to install files anywhere in the system? Why was this considered normal and okay? With no chance of ever cleanly removing that stuff again?

And now we’re back to the trend of curl | bash these days … same thing.

@movq https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-07-03/0/POSTING-en.html Oh yeah, the toolbar handles. You could actually move the toolbars around and sometimes even customize them. I have no evidence, but to me it feels like a lot of programs don't allow that anymore nowadays.

@arne Wie sah’s denn drinnen aus? 😅

@movq It was an easy and quick fix, though. :-)

@arne Ah, ein Jahresband. Man darf dann auf Beiträge dazu im Blog demnächst gespannt sein. :-)

@balloonfu-sen I think you need to update your yarnd instance 🙏

@arne if you see this reply threaded nicely then yes you did! 😅

@bender twtxthashgeddon, word of the year! 😂

@arne Ist die Zahl 2000 ein Verweis auf das Erscheinungsjahr oder einfach nur eine fortlaufende Nummerierung der Zeitungsausgabe und bei Erreichen der zweitausendsten Ausgabe dann als Bonus beigelegen? Frohes Schmökern!

Test! It works now.

How about now?

@movq Thanks! The sunset just beats everything.

@movq Gotta make the economy go "around" and keep public services in play 😅 Good luck! 🤞

Shit i need to update yarnd 😅

Today was really nice. Around 20°C all morning long, only in the arvo we got up to 25°C. Headed out with my mate for a quick stroll: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2026-07-01/

🚨 jenny was broken due to the switch to v2 hash tags.

I pushed a hotfix to main, but this needs a few more test cases. I’ll do that tomorrow.

Shit. Jenny is broken. 🥴

Haha, I just noticed that this is the first twt hash v2 that I reply to. \o/ Oh yeah!

The mentioned go.{mod,sum} change is already part of tview 0.42.0. After implementing Set/GetDisabled(…) and PasteHandler(), tt starts up fine and seems to work without issues.

There's no more time to waste to rotate some months into their archive feed files.

How pretty! https://photo.nullprogram.com/birds/ycnh01/

Put the shopvac on the alert as a wet vacuum cleaner and released it into its regular life, now that it's bone dry again. Maybe five liters of rain. Tops.

@movq Yeah. The thunderstorm was supposed to hit us, sneak north and south around us, directly pay us a vistit again, miss us to the north, directly hit us, and now it's back to a northern diversion. The thunder heavily roars in the distance at the moment. It's down to just 10 liters. A mate just got a wet laundry, though, and had to mob up a – luckily – just tiny flood.

As I type, the first drops begin to fall.

@lyse Ah, yes, you live in “the zone”: https://social.bund.de/@DeutscherWetterdienst/116839789079697685

First 12, then 37, now 63 liters per square meter, what's next?

@itsericwoodward … does your cat wear a bow tie?

Speaking of vim... Which version of vim should I ship with GoNIX? 🤔 Vim or Neovim or something else?

@movq Oh dear! :-(

Now, it's cooler outside than inside. Time to open the windows and start the wind machines.

@movq Lucky you! My damn work laptop heated up this room to 29°C. The hottest so far.

It’s 4am now – and it’s raining! 🥳🥳🥳

I didn't manage to capture the hunting bat. https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2026-06-28/01.jpg

Even the tram tracks give up in this heat: https://chaos.social/@HonkHase/116826341363421229

@kiwu Last time you asked we were all tired. Now we’re EXHAUSTED because it’s 40 °C around here. 🥵😂😭

@movq It was nice at around 5 o'clock on the balcony with just 22°C and the tiniest breeze. But I got eaten alive. Fucking mozzies.

@movq 26°C inside, 30°C outside right now.

Other than the few Unicode issues I mentioned recently, vim-classic works just fine. I completely forgot that I switched to it.

Starting the day with 32 °C inside and absolutely no cooling from the outside.
