Everything makes so much noise if you pay attention. Even the clothes! Horrific cacophony.

Tried to get a haircut. In one place they require appointments. In other I waited for 20 mins, and then the barber who was to cut me recommended for the other one who is more experienced in long haircuts. That would be another 20 mins. Oh whatever. I just left. Another time maybe.

@bouncepaw I've felt and heard this refrain many times lately. I am trying to figure out what justice looks like for people who can't make appointments all the time.

I have bad days a lot where I physically can't do stuff. I have to cancel appointments same-day all the time. So I try to spontaneously do things when I can, but fewer and fewer places seem to be able to accomodate that - why do I need a reservation or to check a website to go for a hike, get a haircut, etc?

A new season (as in TV show seasons) of my life has started. The previous one (the 6th one) lasted a little more than two years.

What is a #wiki? In 2022, I took some good discussions from Fediverse on the topic and copied to my garden: garden.bouncepaw.com/hypha/wha

You might find your name there. Feel free to remove it. My garden is a wiki.

I want to write a poem. It will include allegories to my real life events and people. Few will understand the meaning behind them.

Купил многоразовые линзы. Одна из них порвалась в первый день.

That pesky Postmarks making rounds around the Fediverse while I'm busy and cannot dedicate enough time to make Betula federated yet 😤😤

@neauoire Aliceffekt's music used to be available on Yandex Music, but it's not there anymore. Do you know anything about it?

Devine Lu Linvega

@bouncepaw no, sorry. I didn't put it there, you'd have to ask who put it.

Whomever I talk a lot with irl, they always end up associating me with fish and fungi. Always. Friends, parents, brother, the numerous exes. It always happens.

From an article I was writing in 2021 but never finished:

What makes a good computer environment? People cross swords and engage in holy wars trying to find the truth. Debates over the best OS, text editors, and whatnot. To me, it is starting to sound a little embarrassing. Why do we insult each other for technical choices? There's no point in doing that.

[...]

Also, let's agree that human's comfort matters.

[...]

Input and output of computer systems shall be optimized for the human comfort

Devine Lu Linvega

@bouncepaw I'm not even sure you'll be able to find consent that everyone wants comfort, everyone's needs and expectation are different. I think that's probably all that everyone could agree on.

October's over, but Inktober's not! I've still got half of the drawings left. I'm not giving up.

Ненавижу слово сготовить и отварить. Предпочитаю слова приготовить и сварить. The former прям ярость вызывают внутреннюю.

when something is typeset in Futura or PT Sans, it's automatically better. Currently looking at a hummus in Futura. Going to a university in PT Sans in an hour.

@bouncepaw i love PT Sans. i was using that as my brand type until i started working on sillyz and searched to Recursive to be able to animate font transitions in css with variable font stuff.

i’d love a PT Variable font.

Revitalized a little private project of mine from 2017. 6 years ago!

Let me remind you the #email etiquette:

*. Plain text
*. No hard wrap
*. Bottom posting

Also delete unneeded messages and unsubscribe from the newsletters you don't care about.

Calculating entropy of texts for an assignment. Some conclusions:

1. A regular book has around 4.5 of entropy.
2. If you replace all words with meow, you get half the entropy. I did so with Alice in Wonderland.
3. If you generate a very long cryptographically secure password (100 kilocharacters), you get higher entropy (almost 6).

Tomorrow I'll do similar stuff for images.

@bouncepaw entropy has always fascinated me. confession: i low key worship it as a deity

Паранормальщина вообще. Проснулся в 6 чё-то. Думаю, чё такое. Заметил, что без беруш. Решил, что беруши выпали, и на улице шум какой-нибудь был. Поискал их, чтобы надеть снова, а они на подоконнике лежат аккуратно. Они не выпали, они были сняты. Как?!

WikiWikiWeb, for no real reason, uses advanced JavaScript that is so fresh that it doesn't work in my mere three years old web browser. It's not gonna change anytime soon! But, who cares? People who linked the wiki! I, for example, linked it in my own wiki. Of course I did!

Luckily, there is a mirror: links.bouncepaw.com/go/246

But do you want me to find-and-replace my entire wiki? I'll just update my interwiki map! Interwiki links like [[c2>WikiIsNotXanadu]] are good.
