@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I presume that’s not what’s happening by default when people throw it away, right? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solstice 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org What’s going to happen with that paper now? 🤔

It’s that funny time of the year again when maps look like this. 🥴

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Frühlingsanfang ist, wenn die Luftfeuchtigkeit nach dem Lüften höher ist als vorher. 😏

Is there a special meaning behind those hearts? Or just something that kids make these days?

(To avoid misunderstandings: It might sound like he’s saying the N word, but it’s “mega” with a german accent. Just so we’re clear on that.)

Too bad non-native speakers (probably) cannot appreciate this beauty … 😂 // We Butter The Bread With Butter - NICE // https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E49Qrhdk2cI #NowPlaying

@logout@i-logout.cz Oof, let us know how that goes. 😅 I only remember REXX very very vaguely, I only saw it as a kid every now and then … Are there any REXX interpreters for modern operating systems? Or are you simply doing it one, say, OS/2?

(… because I don’t really have an informed opinion about ActivityPub nor Mastodon, so I can’t contribute anything meaningful …)

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, I know. 😅 For now, I just sit back and watch. 😂

@mckinley@twtxt.net I’ll be completely honest: For a split second, I was already thinking “ah screw it, I’ll just use Mastodon now”. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 03.jpg is pretty good, though, you can see nice structures on the feathers. 👌

It’s hard to make good photos of black birds. I guess you’d have to drag them into a studio. 😅

@marado@twtxt.net Oh dear, that’s crazy. 😳 There are so many different and elaborate ways to make a coffee, my goodness. 😀

The upper container might get pretty messy, right? I’m looking at this picture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_coffee_maker#/media/File:Vacuumcoffeestep7.jpg

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org But but, aren’t you a programmer? I thought programmers were machines that convert coffee into code! 🤯 😅

@marado@tilde.pt Now what is that? 😳 Disclaimer, I am not a coffee nerd. I know next to nothing about it. 😅

I never owned a coffee maker, because … I don’t really know exactly 😅, but one of the reasons is that I’m too lazy to properly clean and maintain these machines. So, I was just drinking tea at home and coffee only at the office (where we have big fancy machines). Recently, a friend told me about a super simple way to make coffee:

Put in a filter, put in the coffee, pour water over it, done. The only “machine” required is something to heat up the water. Hardly any cleaning involved.

I love this low-tech approach.

Now I just have to learn more about it, buy better beans and all that. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Looks nice and can be quite entertaining to walk in, but it also caused quite a bit of damage: https://www.swr.de/swraktuell/rheinland-pfalz/sturm-rlp-stromausfall-ludwigshafen-100.html I wasn’t affected, luckily. (I’m just waiting for my windows to burst, though. 😂)

@prologic@twtxt.net I think the high score at work was something like 28’000 unread mails … Not my inbox, somebody else’s. Mine is at zero, too. 😂

(IIRC, when they tried to mark all those as “read”, it broke our Google Mail for a while. 🤦)

Yeah, let’s wait another 5, 6, 7 years or so. 😅 I mean, the kid has to go to school and stuff. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Maybe … but probably not. 😅

First there was this (I love it, great technique, consistent and relaxed – you just gotta ignore that cheesy American TV stuff):

Then this lovely thing with the original band:

And eventually this:

Boom. 🤯

Really curious to see how this evolves. Let’s just hope this success at such a young age doesn’t ruin her. 🤞

One of my favorite things to do now: Playing Stoner Metal riffs on the upright bass, super slow. 🥴 😁

Here’s a bit of Monolord - Empress Rising (the part starting at 7:45):

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net What a beautiful country. Great shots. 😍

I’m happy to report that the neighbor started practicing “Für Elise” at a much slower speed now – and now they’re making progress and getting better at it! 🥳

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ohhh, I love that. I wish I had one of those. (Then again, I’d find all the nasty and badly insulated spots, so it’s probably better to live in ignorance. 😅)

@prologic@twtxt.net No, not at all. It’s all good, man. 👌😅
