Yarn.social Online Meetup 25th May (See: #fcghsma for details)
In-reply-to » Two mates and I went on a 25km hike yesterday to the Wasserberg (lit. Water Mountain) and Fuchseck (lit. Fox Corner) on the edge of the Swabian Alb. They arrived by train and of course it was delayed by half an hour, "due to limited availability of tracks". That was a first one, I never heard that reason before. Another train had a breakdown in a train station and later my mates' train had to be rebooted, too. That restart alone took 10 minutes. O_o Software problem, it can't be helped.

Oh dear, I got plenty of spam – if not even worse – on one of my jabber IDs. One sender JID was on exploit.net or exploit.im or something like that (I already forgot).

In-reply-to » Quite proud of what we built :) I really like the result. Media

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Oh cool, that looks nice! Great job. Would he be able to jump the fence when standing on his hut’s roof? How does the door lock work? Also, that’s some giant bone. :-) I bet he loves that one.

I couldn’t help myself but notice that it appears your stairs and the left of the deck need some countersinks for the screws. 8-)

In-reply-to » Amazon Defends Its Use of Signal Messages in Court America's Federal Trade Commission and 17 states filed an antitrust suit against Amazon in September. This week Amazon responded in court about its usage of Signal's "disappearing messages" feature.

They’re upset that they don’t get to spy on private information because they used an ephemeral channel to send it?
Are they upset because they erased the white boards too?

In-reply-to » @prologic Thank you. I'm using Pixel Station. I can't recommend it enough for this kind of pixelart, but it's only available for Android.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m not sure. I never had an Apple device and when this app was briefly broken by Android updates, I sadly wasn’t able to find any good alternative, other than emulating an older version of Android, until a fix came out.

It does worry me a little, because it is this one developer hobby project, that is not opensource, that my ability to properly draw pixelart, relies upon.

In-reply-to » @thecanine Btw... Do you have a web (ideally) based gallery view of your pixel art work here somewhere? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net if you go into the “ART menu” and click /pixel-art/, you get the main folder, where it can all be browsed by file names, but currently without a preview.

If you want more of a gallery thing, check out the backup sites listed under it (also in the “ART menu”, of the main site). Currently you can choose between NextCloud, Gdrive, OneDrive and TeraBox - NextCloud is probably the most accessible option.

Hmm, didn’t yarnd automatically inline image URLs back in the days? Looks like I have to resort back to markdown images again.
