@thisismissem I assumed timelines would sort by published time no? I'm gonna run some tests before deploying this to production ofc
@thisismissem Probably! What sort were you thinking of?
@jackdaw_ruiz Me but whenever I have to leave the command line to poke some sort of "app" or dismissing yet another banner/popup on a website. ☝️🤓
Simulating network requests to test a new feature in @distributed
You know how when you follow an account on Mastodon you don't get to see any of the users older posts unless someone else on your instance follows them? Well if it's a distributed press site it'll attempt to "backfill" your instance with all the older posts once your follow request is accepted. 😎

I thought THIS was the "dork web" we were on right now?
The cats are having their 1 AM wrestling match / speed race accross my bed. 🥰
@arichtman Main issue I had was other processes trying to bind tk the port from the OS. Else I had issues if I didn't set the specific interface id on the socket before opening it. On android you also need to call an API to enable multicast UDP. Ad hoc networks can be weird about multicast address space too.
Ottawa pride was fun. Interested to see how the parade is tomorrow. Wish the streets were a bit more accessible tho. Lots of potholes and tricky ledges. 😅
@scattershot you are my hero 😍🎉🎉
i wish I could browse instagram the way I do Tusky. I just want a chronological feed of people I actually follow, not random algo shit with 50% ads.

Huh.
So, just now I learned that you can convert miles to kilometers with the Fibonacci sequence?
A mile is 1.609 kilometers.
The Golden Ratio, the ratio between Fibonacci numbers as they get large, is 1.618.
So, within about 1%. And large doesn't need to be that large, it's actually pretty accurate from about 8 onwards.
1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 etc etc
5 miles is 8 km.
21 miles is 34 km.
89 miles is 144 km.
etc etc.
Kinda neat IMO.

Physarum wires: Self-growing self-repairing smart wires made from slime mould: https://arxiv.org/abs/1309.3583 a.k.a. super super gross wires. This is for sure how you end up with the backstory for the Borg.

it survived another round of resizing. How the hell is it taking 200 GB for a single user? The world may never know.
Let's play "is my instance fucked this time" roulette 🤪
My matrix server ran out of space again TT_TT This thing is gonna be eating another 120 bucks a year.
Night three of lack of sleep is really hitting me in the productivity center. TT_TT
@Hyolobrika I saw it more as one component of high modernism, but basically yeah.
