Oxygene Pt. 4 by Jean-Michel Jarre (1976), reinterpreted in Javascript.
Really spot-on, respect to the author!

C++ class implementing a navier-stokes solver, with extensive comments in wütendem Niederbayrisch, die auf die Schwaben schimpfen.

// Wir schreiben hier eine C++ Klasse, die einen Navier-Stokes-Löser implementiert. Dieser Löser ist ein Computerprogramm, das die Navier-Stokes-Gleichungen verwendet, um die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit und -dichte in einem bestimmten Gebiet zu berechnen.

class NS_Solver {
public:
NS_Solver(); // Standardkonstruktor
~NS_Solver(); // Destruktor

    // Berechnet die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit und -dichte
    void CalculateFlow(double time);

    // Setzt die Strömungsparameter für die Berechnung
    void SetFlowParameters(double viscosity, double density);

private:
    // Speichert die Strömungsparameter
    double m_viscosity;
    double m_density;

    // Hilfsfunktion, die die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit und -dichte berechnet
    void CalculateVelocityAndDensity(double time);

};

// Des werden die Schwoben nie verstehen, des gibt's ja gar net!

Just spent 5 minutes worrying about my laptop's dying ventilation until I realized it was YouTube playing this super smooth brown noise video in the background.
It *is* really top notch brown noise though...

We've come a long way since Eliza. The quality OpenAI's new ChatGPT system brings to the table is truly fascinating. Here it's reasonably comparing memory safety features in two different programming languages.

What if there was an internet browser based on rendering Markdown? Sans HTML, CSS, JS and whatnot? Without all the bloat that makes publishing complicated? With meta-data driven by Frontmatter? With great typography standards?

Focused on written content? And that's about it?

That's unfortunately right - most browsers removed support for the Gopher protocol in the last ten years or so :(

However, there seem to be extensions that re-enable it (usually by routing requests through some Gopher-to-HTTP proxy because of technical limitations of the extension APIs). No idea if they're any good. And even if they work - keep in mind that Gopher is basically a ghost town by now :)

Some progress on the tooling front

Underappreciated demo tool milestone:
being able to open a project, close it and reopen again without everything exploding!

The nice thing about being in a chat room with 3D artists is that I'm exposed to a weird mix of stuff I'd never have found on my own. This one's especially hilarious while I also learned a thing or two!

Cheers Elon for boosting the fediverse :)

Would love to produce a game OST/sound design again

More specifically: a scifi-ish Shmup. Think Einhaender, Philosoma, Chaos Field, R-Type. Maybe for any game that screams for an Arcade-ish Techno soundtrack and sound design.

Platform doesn't really matter, as long as halfway decent sample playback is possible.

If you know someone who knows someone, hit me up!

update incoming

hi people of the abraum. i will update the system to 2022.06 soon, one of the changes should be that more mastodon-compatible apps will work with social.abraum.de

i will test a few and get back here with my findings soon!

I held a strange seminar about DJing last year...

...and how it's finally available on YouTube. What took me so long?

I gave it for 50 people I knew in the realm of a Demoparty. I'm offering an unfamilar perspective to the topic. I've certainly been opinionated at times.

Honestly, I shied away from publishing for several reasons:

  • [
]The sound quality is subpar[]The audience knew me and my DJ sets[]I wish I went deeper into certain topics, deliver more context and so on[]I called those who benefit from selling products to people to help them cheat time selfish idiots.Which is a polarizing thing to say. And it's not how I wish to appear. At the same time, I stand what I said there.

Still receiving positive feedback for having shifted some of the attendees' perspectives, made me want to publish it anyway. So, here it is:

In this seminar, I shared my perspective about DJing through the lens of leadership and confidence. Answered some of the most common questions about the craf...

the level of weird hate on the monolithic socials is insane these days. it feels like a lot of users have completely lost any kind of kindness and empathy. phew.

page update on post
!Friendica Support do other people also experience that on writing a post and sharing it, the post appears above the other posts, hidden, so you have to manually scroll the page down to see it? that is so confusing. am i doing something wrong, or is that expected behaviour? :)

it feels like a software error, i had that question from at least 25% of the new users on my instance. they create a post, share it, and it is not to be seen, making them think it did not get posted. is that really by design? or would that be an improvement to be made?

This isn't by design, it's rather a side-effect of a general behavior. To scroll the post into view we would have to add some exception specific to this case, so it would be an improvement to be made.

freenas/truenas scale linux
service announcement: truenas will release a new version of their storage system based on linux tomorrow. i have set up a new nas for my homelab using their release candidates over the last few weeks, using a hp proliant dl380 with 2 12core-xeons and 128gb ecc ram, it is now packed with hdd and ssd to the brim, and it is working well. being linux based, it now supports virtual machines running on kvm, and docker and whatnot, so it is very flexible once you wrap your head around zfs. i basically built a server that now houses 18 storage drives, has tons of ram, cpu and dual 10/40gbe uplinks at a fraction of the cost of a similarly specced synology system. yay!
