Me, to Godzilla: So what do you do in your spare time?
G: Recreation.
Me: Yeah, like a hobby or something.
G, looking at me like I'm simple: Wreck creation.

Got the WebGPU renderer in working to create a basic Lorenz attractor! However, it goes off the rails after about 30s, I think due to floating point inconsistencies. Suspect I need to rethink my approach, but trying to find a parallel solution is breaking my brain.

Colorful swirls but then it turns into a mess.

This 📰 App of the Week 👽 is a community classic!

Created by @rowan_m, https://glitch.com/~zine-machine gives you a template to create a zine about whatever you like, and then print it! 🙌

@glitchdotcom This is the one I get the most random emails about where people are trying out the template for their own project. ❤️ Shout out to @rachelandrew for the excellent guides on CSS grid and print stylesheets that helped me build this.

@glitchdotcom @rachelandrew (updated to "stylesheets" instead of "spreadsheets"... my day-job is clearly negatively affecting my brain 😵)

"Oh, perfect - the configuration is in YAML," said literally no-one ever. Markup dreamed up by the utterly deranged

I'm trying to discover and see more new music (i.e. tracks and artists from this decade). Last.fm was always my favourite discovery queue, so I've reconnected my YouTube Music listening with Web Scrobbler (Chrome extension https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/web-scrobbler/hhinaapppaileiechjoiifaancjggfjm) and Pano Scrobbler (Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arn.scrobble) with Last.fm hooked up to songkick.com for concerts.

What else should I tinker with?

@rowan_m@mastodon.social avatar

@ben oh, this is cool. After looking them up, I fully hear the Soul Coughing coming through.

I guess web-based streams should scrobble well too.

Here's a beautiful oddity: This nebula was created by a very rare type of supernova that HALF-exploded 800 years ago.

Two white dwarf stars collided & detonated, lighting up Earth's skies. Somehow one of the white dwarfs survived, leaving behind the hottest star in our galaxy.

I apologise for whatever Mastomangling happened to that gif... it should be endearing, not glitched out twitching.

Given academic papers' propensity to distribute 2-column PDFs, what's your go-to for making that readable? As in, if I'm reading on my phone what's the quickest route to a format from this century? (Yes, I know how LaTeX works. I am grateful I'm not downloading PostScript)

Learning that the Gospel Oak to Barking Line was already abbreviated to the does make me feel that we really should have paved that desire path. It will live on in my heart.

@rowan_m Third party cookie question. Is Auth0 considered one of these?

rowan_m,
@rowan_m@mastodon.social avatar

@chicgeek my understanding is that Auth0 uses a third-party cookie for this specific feature: https://auth0.com/docs/authenticate/login/configure-silent-authentication but that same article links through to alternative.

It's like a photo walk, but I just meander around the Mandelbrot snapping interesting sights.
