@neauoire is this the correct way to write POP2kr? I have not seen an example rune with the 3 modes, only

- 2 is " above the rune
- k is , below the rune
- r is o where?

Using the actual unicodes k and r stack down vertically (order not important)
R̥̗̎ R̗̥̎

I think horizontal alignment ,º or º, would be more forgiving to .ufx fonts.

But you are the source of truth here :3
Regards!

in reply to Devine Lu Linvega

thank you, I'll try to see if I can make it look nice with pixels for a turye font, if not I'll try to strike through in .uf3

I also wanted to update my profile pic to POP2kr because it represents me right now, "busy doing nothing". 😅

I'm not sure I can create something pretty out of pc strokes (with a mouse), but I'll try to draw it by hand and scan it.

Hope you are having a great day!

in reply to Snufkin

cheers 😀 I like how you have it right now, both modes underneath like that too, you could keep it as is


Here! Finally! I have my sample. The "Live laugh federate" enamel pin.

in reply to Eugen Rochko

this looks awesome, I wanted to buy it, but they are asking for 13 EUR for shipping. More than twice as expensive as the pin itself... Why is shipping to Portugal, for a pin, so damn expensive?!

Thinking of merveilles.town/@aartaka/11570… and wondering how decent font sizes should be specified in web pages.

In my in-development site, I've not styled <p> and <h1–6> yet at all, so it's just using the browser's default sizes and spacing. Eventually I might decide to be more opinionated, but how to go about it?

I might have the opposite problem that @aartaka might be thinking of: all the screens I use are low-resolution (currently 1366px wide) so I worry about ultra-high-resolution in particular.

I prefer when people don't set a size and let my browser defaults handle everything from smaller, small, medium, large, larger.

And yes this research came out a while ago.... but the environmental movement has ignored it or missed it for some time to the point where many have never heard about it.
in reply to Joseph Teller

Verrry interesting. Well-written & 'data driven'. Science has long been our friend -- until recent #ExecutiveDisorders (USA)
I'm thinking that what is left of 'the environmental movement' is in panic mode, & should be, but is powerless in this current madman regime in the U.S., with the attending media narrative owned increasingly by Big Bro(ther)... Oil, coal, wind...

Idealogues who see their programming language as a platform for politics working on a platform who's success depends solely on neutrality, what could go wrong?
in reply to It's FOSS

The title is misleading. This is just a new Arti release. Are you going to announce that finally Tor is going Rust at every release, instead of waiting for the Tor Browser to use Arti by default?
Maybe that is part of the reason why some people are pissed of at Rust.

Hello @Raroun hope you're well. every now & then, when i have joined a different #Friendica instance in the past, i ask this same question of its Owners / Admins. always it's the same negative answer, but i live in hope!

on Masto & Sharkey instances, if the Admins are willing, it is technically possible to add FOSS emojis to the servers. consequently, on many of my instances i've been able to include these in various posts when applicable:

:linux: :archlinux: :kde: :plasma: :zenbrowser: :floorp: :firefox_nightly: :firefox: :thunderbird: :fedora: :opensuse: :debian:

so... is there yet any way that such emojis can be added to your instance, please?

@Raroun

Here's a screenshot of what i now see, in draft / preview format, when i paste my original emoji-suite again, since @Raroun kindly enabled / added

the standard "Smiley Pack Addon" for Friendica


so i can see that yes, some of my desired #FOSSemojis now work, but sadly still most don't. i shall be most interested to see what might happen after this weekend. 🤞 🤞 🤞

in reply to Droppie [opensoc]

FYI but every one of those ​:customemojis:​ has to have the actual PNG or GIF uploaded to YOUR instance for any of them to work.

Until then they're simply not going to work no matter what you do.

They are not universal. Each custom emoji is unique to the instance that has it.

My instance might have :heart: look like this: ♥️But on another instance :heart: might look like this: 💓

in reply to Droppie [opensoc]

@Droppie [opensoc]
You can view the available custom emojis via the link. This will always be a limited selection, in addition to the classic emojis.

this is an experimental quote-share from my #Friendica #newsbots #Circle, whose default Permissions disallow anyone outside this Circle being able to see or access it. i have now done a one-off flip of the Permissions, just for this individual post, to Public, so...

Hello? (Hello, hello, hello)
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone home?
Come on (Come on, come on), now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again
Relax (Relax, relax, relax)
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?

RE: mastodon.social/@Gargron/11569…

There's now free shipping on orders of 70 EUR and over.


I've realized we don't have a lot of time left to ship orders before Christmas, and the sample of the new "Live laugh federate" pin might take a few more days to arrive at my home for product shots, so I've put it up on the shop with the picture the manufacturer took for me. This is the last new product this year.

Great software is free software.

Out of the many brilliant #FOSS tools out there, ZDNet’s Jack Wallen picks seven he considers so good he’d gladly “throw down some cash“.

And guess what? Nextcloud is one of them. Well, we wouldn’t settle for less 😉

1) odd premise, and 2) this would work better if each ended with "that is why I give them my money".
Not that I disagree with the conclusion, but "I could totally give you money. I don't, but you really deserve it" is not as strong as he appears to think it is.
