@alex fedi is fine & it looks great! and yes, that would probably make sense to add.

you've got no chutzpah, your organizational skills are lackluster, your timekeeping is abysmal! see: https://icyphox.sh/about
colima + k3d are all you need for local k8s dev on macOS. talk about excellent software.

@alex oh yeah, need to update that. markdown is in fact rendered now. and as for markdown library—i’ve generally stuck to blackfriday for years at this point and it’s served me well enough.
@hugo it’s annoying if anything lol
@eletrotupi aha hey life’s good indeed. how’ve you been?
@simonbs espresso house 😬
there's this one dude at work who just can't stop saying 'namaste' when he sees me
real
so are we not mad at reddit anymore?
I just remembered the time when typing a capital letter 'O' in Telegram would crash it because I owned an NZXT watercooler.
@shubh neat! what are you shooting on?
it's that time of the year when i have about 2 hours of motivation to try to hack on masto api for honk. and it's running out fast.
i like my new @me css
the honknet has no CEO!
Twitch.tv. Discord.gg. Github.io. Three memorable addresses for three major websites that all have something in common: Their iconic URLs come from small island nations and territories. But there's more to the story on how these domains are being used, and sold.

i’m thoroughly enjoying shooting this thing!
i absolutely love the automatic frame advance. no more “oh wait i didn’t advance the frame and missed the shot” or “what if i push the advance lever and the shutter accidentally presses down in my bag” moments thanks to being able to power it off and on.
@ru i don’t mean this as advice, but purely out of curiosity: have you considered switching to more memory efficient tooling instead? of course, keeping in mind the workflows that already exist/would change too much.
@aworldinpages aren’t they like just balls made of flour?
in hindsight, i should've taken a similar stance to sqlite's on contributions to legit. open source but not open for patches (smaller bug fixes/typos or whatever i deem useful being the exception).
the reason? i built legit for myself, and envisioned more forks of it with people running customized versions, as opposed to them trying to upstream features. don't get me wrong, there were some excellent fixes/QoL improvements sent my way and they were merged -- because i happened to find them useful. the rest are others' opinionated features which i won't use. while i initially tried engaging, i guess i eventually just lost interest -- owing to the fact that i didn't deem it necessary/useful.
@monoxane yeah, i agree fully. i did attempt to run a cluster a couple years back but that didn't last very long -- likely due to a) overly complex architecture, b) lack of maturity of the chosen software stack.
i think this time around i'll stick to as simple as possible. probably also helps that stuff like longhorn has come much much further since.
@monoxane thing is, i do this at work everyday and i’d like for it to not feel like work, lol.
hmm loosely considering copping a couple tiny/mini/micro boxes and running a home k8s cluster on top of it.
@drewdevault @aks @Zarkonnen @xarvos from the finnish 4chan-like board called ylilauta iirc
this is so convenient! my EOS 55 shows the current exposure count and the film status (loaded or not) even when it’s powered off.
i regret to inform that it appears i have become what one might call as an "average coffee drinker" with caffeine withdrawal headaches when i don't drink coffee.
picked up this beautiful 90’s Canon SLR film camera—the EOS 55 (also Elan II, EOS 50e). got it off ebay in near perfect condition for 60 EUR shipped.
this thing is built like a tank and is so nice to hold with excellent ergonomics. Canon really nailed the design.
some neat features:
- autofocus with 3 zones
- eye control AF! basically follows your retina and chooses the AF zone. works incredibly well!
- autoexposure
- loads film automatically! it basically unloads the entire roll and shoots backwards, respooling the roll. so nifty!
- “panorama” mode where the shutter opens up only for the middle of the frame. apparently only in the JDM EOS 55 (which i have)
going to grab a roll of Foma something to blast through this today! something about a fully auto film camera is so exciting. maybe because i’m tired of missing focus a million times on my OM-10, lol.
@drewdevault @me yes, but solidarity against harm—hence, harm reduction.
@hugo yep, and his recent posts
it appears drew is overcompensating for his past mistakes
oh neat ferricy on the frontpage of red site
… and from vilnius and kaunas! evidently, the lighting was mid.
spent 6 days in riga, latvia and vilnius & kaunas, lithuania a few weeks ago.
the first night in riga was probably the most fun i’ve had ever, with the folks in the hostel. my first time in a hostel, definitely not my last.
vilnius is probably the nicest old town in the baltics. the palace of the grand dukes of lithuania is such a beautiful museum—i spent nearly all day there.
finally, finished off the trip with a long overdue irc meet up in kaunas. very good times.
shot a roll of kodak gold 200 in those 6 days—although, admittedly the weather was rather bleak for the film. here’s my favourites from riga.
@hugo thank you!
i much prefer fuji 200 to gold 200. gold just looks so bland to me.
looks like mastodon only shows 4(?) images. yet another L by the big M.
late summer film shots! experimented a bit with portraits this time.
olympus om-10, 50mm f/1.8, fujicolor 200

@cassidy @ryne to be fair, the process of tanning leather releases a bunch of toxic substances. besides, they plan to use “recycled” materials for their new FineWoven cases (which I assume is a polyester blend of some sort):
Apple is introducing a new FineWoven Case with MagSafe and FineWoven Wallet with MagSafe, made from a durable and elegant microtwill with a soft, suedelike feel. The material is made from 68 percent post-consumer recycled content and has significantly lower carbon emissions compared to leather.
@xrisk very nice dear

@alex while i haven’t stress tested it i don’t see why not. it uses blackfriday as the markdown renderer under the hood and it runs plenty fast.
@ratfactor @alex while cgit is nice, it renders horribly on smaller viewports and spits out 2005 html (tables and tds galore).
if that's something you care about, try legit—simpler config, fully customizable go templates, a normal http server and not cgi, etc. and of course, i'm the author. :^)
oooh spicy X11 vs wayland drama
@ajkelkar ah i should’ve clarified: i meant shooting a film camera with the automagics—in reference to the ELAN II. :D
i mean i love shooting with my Olympus OM10 but a fully automatic SLR with autofocus sounds hella exciting
there’s someone selling a Canon 1000D with the 50mm f/1.8 + 18–35mm f/3.5–5.6 + accessories for 50€. i can’t pass this up! if anything, i just want the kit lens to use with this Canon ELAN II i’ve been eying…
@tedu oh, weird. i’ll take another look at my diff.
