@xuu yeah, I will take it with a grain of salt. Impressive? Yes. Available to just about anyone? I don’t think so… yet.

@bender He is running on the latest macbook pro with 128G memory. though the chrome app seems to be sitting at 125MB. i am a bit suspicious about that stat since we dont see all the worker threads and he is currently sitting on 40GB of non cache ram.

you know you're in trouble when the time traveler's follow-up question is "oh. what month?"
I just went into the woods for a bit over an hour. A few hundred meters in and I a found a brilliant spot. 20-30 fireflies in view all around me all the time. I loved it! As bonus, a bat was hunting over my head for two, three minutes while I watched the many glowing dots. On the return I could even see one or the other firefly over the meadows near the edge of the forest. But clearly, most can be met _in_ the forest. Guess what I will be doing tomorrow evening. :-)

I'm now really looking forward to a night hike soon.

Yesterday, I paid Duck Memorial another visit: :-D

Actually a war memorial on Mt. Hohenrechberg, but it always looks totally like a duck to me

It was a really nice hike, there was hardly anybody outside. The weather wasn't bad at all, around 22°C and cloudy most of the time. The drizzle got me a few times, but it wasn't terrible. It just raised the humidity. A bit more wind would have been nice, it was very calm, even at the summits.

On the way there I had to kill a tick that I found on my trousers. Those bloody suckers! What benefit do they bring nature? At home I checked and couldn't find any others. Phew.

On the way back from Mt. Hohenrechberg I saw a deer and hare. It's been years that I came across hares in the wild, so that was really cool. I decided to watch the sunset from Mt. Hohenstaufen, so I took a small detour. Absolutely worth it:

Sunset

A group of hippies eventually joined me at the sunset lookout, lit joss sticks, played some weird music on a metal pipe thingy (a bit like a single windbell) and sang a sun dance song. Said song had gone missing for a very long time and was recovered only lately, they told me. Okay. Some other really crazy dude told us that the mountain we're on had been raised in the Young Stone Age. That period where harvests were plentiful and people had a lot of spare time. WTF!? I mean they all were super nice and friendly and talking to them was also actually lovely, but what… err… interesting mindsets.

On the final return I saw another three deer on a paddock. And now for the very, very best part of the whole trip: in the forest I encountered 83 fireflies before I stopped counting. In the end it must have been 500-600 in total. One even nearly hit me in the face if I hadn't ducked at the last second. :-) Man, this was soooo fricking amazing! Fireflies for round about 1.5km! Didn't even try to take photos in this darkness, though.
Is it this?
@xuu that looks interesting, especially when they turned off network connectivity, and still worked just fine. Really, really interesting. Begets the question, though, what are the machine specs? Do you have a link to the source of this?

@bender Well I _think_ it's a bug IMO, but I'll have to file this upstream, unless you can? It should be filed against this project -- We still haven't migrated to goldmark 😅

Hmm. *Testing*, will delete.
@darren our summer is hot, and humid. Unless at the beach—in which case it is _awesome_—our summers are far from great. Oh, also the lawn grows like crazy because of the almost everyday showers, and the sun that comes after, so I have to work overtime mowing. 😩
