@prologic (#t5aqjva) Those tree cutter monkeys climbed around in the crowns like real monkeys. ;-) It was really fascinating watching them prune the limbs and branches. They first put a rope around the branch theyāre about to cut off with hand saws and then lowered them down to their collegues, so falling limbs didnāt damage the roof or other structures. Good thing they were roped up, because the branches were wobbly in the first place and when the sawed off the ends, the branches rebound quite a bit after having lost weight. I was really lucky that I had an excellent view from my window.
(#rzl6zjq) The primerose family is native to central Europe, @prologic. The temperatures are all over the place here, @bml. A couple of days ago we had 20Ā°C and today we were back to sleet. I have no idea what happend to the log, there are no beavers around here. Iām dead certain that lightning wasnāt involved either. We hadnāt any thunderstorms for quite some time. About two decades ago this tree was struck by lightning: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2021-02-22ā19.jpg
@movq@www.uninformativ.de (#5i4erka) Oh, didnāt know that. Anytime I got there, it just was visually terrible, so I didnāt bother any further and closed the tab again.
Today I called it a day at 14 oāclock and went to the second highest local mountain by bike. Reducing 300 photos down to a much more manageable size of 62 took me an hour. And condensing them further, so family and friends can enjoy them, took roughly another half an hour. Now Iām down to 35: https://lyse.isobeef.org/fahrradrunde-rechberg-2021-03-02/
@movq@www.uninformativ.de@prologic (#5i4erka) I never understood Reddit and thus never visited it actively. Only if I didnāt pay attention and clicked on a search result.
@prologic@movq@www.uninformativ.de (#il72mbq) Thanks! Oops, you caught me. /o\ I reckon the good old Maggie bottle was left by the hunter on purpose to draw wildlife to the deerstand.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de (#qmb2v7q) Works in Firefox without issues. I reckon Iām quite lame, I was never into gaming. Always liked to program (useless) stuff.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de (#huaer3q) I started programming with Delphi and when I had a look at my old code, it was an awful mess, too. The worst and funniest thing I remember was when there was a time where I knew if, but didnāt have a clue that I could use begin and end to group statements. So whenever I wanted to do multiple things on a certain condition, it was a copy-paste hell of the same ifs over and over againā¦
@darch (#bakywta) Great ideas, mate! While reading this and looking at your UI mock again, I got the idea of placing all the actions on a message (reply, edit, delete) in the message āheaderā on the right next to the author and time. This would save some space and provide more real estate for the actual contents. Since the messages are quite short, having to jump back for actions shouldnāt pose a problem, I reckon. Not sure, how users with tiny screens will feel about this, though.
@off_grid_living (#sgsyaia) Ha, great blanket trick! I never came in touch with solar panels, but Iām not sure, whether I had come up with this wonderful low tech approach if I had to.
@adi (#jlar35q) Well, thereās always something. :-) Luckily Debian ships it, no need to get a Haskell build system set up here. Great recommendation, though, thanks mate!
@darch (#jlar35q) At first I looped over the images and then piped a linked image to the index.html. I then came back and added the header with Vim. But after a couple of times I wrote this: https://git.isobeef.org/lyse/gelbariab/-/blob/master/gal (I just realized, that I havenāt committed this simple helper, thanks for the reminder! :-))
@eldersnake@adi (#vxdabzq) No, please donāt use drop down menus for day, month and year selection, this is a terrible user experience in my mind. Iād just go with <input type=date>. At least Firefox 78 here has a pretty usable date picker. Iād support some common date formats on the server side, just if the type=text fallback kicked in and a user submitted ādate free textā.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de@adi (#jlar35q) I really donāt mind it very much. In fact quality of life increased by not spending two and a half to three hours on the train each day (depending on whether they decide to run late or even cancel the connection). Every now and then I hike with a very close mate. Today we spent three and half hours in nature: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2021-02-25/ At least for me this is incredibly relaxing. I have to admit, I just started only recently to do this intensely.
