@mckinley Yea the idea is micro costs to the consumer. No one really does this, that I know of, which is frustrating if you want to run a few small things without the overhead of a whole server or the operational efforts.

@movq I reckon you have to wait a bit for that to happen or just come by one day. :-)
@prologic Oh no, that's so silly.
@movq Even just consumer grade. Wow! I also only rarely print anything and I always got third-party toners, never was disappointed with them. Last year I noticed that we have an ink and toner shop in town and bought there. That actually exist over two decades now, but looks extremely inconspicuous.

@movq Oh wow, how cool is that?! :-) Ducks over here are quite shy, unfortunately. In Ludwigsburg on the other hand they are very habituated to humans. I was very surprised to see that when visiting a mate. There were a bunch of them laying on the stairs and I tried to keep my distance to not scare them off. Didn't dare to get closer than maybe five meters or so and was super happy that they stayed. That has always been impossible over here. After we proceeded, some tourists came by and stood a meter next to them or so. That was crazy for me to see. :-)

Yeah, walking next to a highway is torture. I try to avoid it as much as possible.

Nice! The third photo looks like a Kneipp basin. What's that round tunnel? I love those moss-covered rocks, they just look so beautiful.

@lyse The ducks aren’t too scared of humans. Great story from the first days of Covid in 2020: There were so few humans out and about that the wildlife began to reclaim its place. Those ducks in particular waddled around near the shops – and one of them even went *into* the super market. 😃 Never seen that before or since.

That path leads to a highway, yeah. Or rather under a highway. 😅 The photo with the graffiti shows a short tunnel, the highway is on top of it. It’s usually annoyingly loud, so I don’t go there often.

@lyse I’m surprised as well. It’s one of those big, clunky laser printers:

https://movq.de/v/8a3495c3c2/

But it’s not “industrial grade”, it was a normal consumer printer and cost about 370€. I changed the black toner once and nothing else. Admittedly, the color toners are “worn out” and don’t give great results anymore, but I can’t be bothered as I hardly print anything in color these days. It might be worth buying replacements *now*, though, before they go out of production. 🤔 It’s already impossible to buy original ones, but there are still 3rd party toners. (Wtf? Was this a super popular model?! 😂)

That's really impressive I have to say.

@pratikbaid3 is looking for a few small projects to add to his contractor/freelance CV and has reached out to me to see if he could do a bit of work on the Yarn.social mobile app. He's done work before in the past and has done a pretty decent job.

Two projects we've discussed:

- Flutter upgrade and cleanup, ensuring the mobile app builds successfully with the latest Flutter (_which breaks all the time 🤦‍♂️_)
- A UI/UX Redesign of the Mobile App with a Bottom Nav Bar layout. This would end up having something like Timeline | Mentioned | Profile -- Maybe it _could_ also have "Search" too if I somehow found the time to add an appropriate search endpoint to the API.

What do y'all think? 🤔_

@movq Well it's screwed with my working hours somewhat, but this year I've decided to just "not give a shit"™ and just get up at the normal time and start at the time I had been starting work the past 6 months, 8.30am. In practise it probably means I end up working a bit longer for 1/2 the year, but oh well, at least I don't have to fiddle with my alarm clock ⏰

@movq Yeah I immediately thought of this when you asked, because we use eBPF-based tools in Kubernetes clusters. It's very powerful stuff and you can do a lot very cheaply with it, including tying packets to processes.

And I just came across this one in my feed: https://benhoyt.com/writings/go-version-performance-2024/ At least from 1.17 onwards size is actually growing again. I didn't measure early enough.
@movq @prologic The several megabytes of Go binaries always feel so wrong. Hello world is 1.8 MiB, with -ldflags '-w' still 1.3 MiB. Growing with each Go release.
@movq No, at least not that I know of. The closest would be probably the one from the Americans in Stuttgart. No idea whose war machines these were, though.

The mountain is 684 meters above sea level, so this makes for a difference of about 350 meters in 5 kilometers (most direct trip). Plus a little bit up and down here and there, or more, depending on the selected route. But it's not climbing stairs, so it's much more pleasant I'd say. Kudos to you! The last section is the actually steep part. Each brown contour line marks an increase of 10 meters. Sure enough, I'm glad when I finally reach the summit and can pause for a breath. :-)

@lyse The magic of dynamic linking (and C). 😅 It has pros and cons, smaller binary size surely is one of the advantages. Go’s huge binary sizes is something that I’ve never gotten used to. 🫤 (Rust *can* be a little better at it, but they’re still very large as well.)
