I'm playing around with an LCARS colour theme for @novelwriter, based on the colours of the display screens on Star Trek TNG and related shows.

Of course, since it is a text app, the layout doesn't look anything like LCARS, so it kind of works and it kind of doesn't. 😅

Edit: Dropped the green colour and updated the screenshot. That helped a bit.

Let it snow! ❄️

I have added snow to my instance during the winter holidays. It's a tiny JS canvas and fades out on scroll down. The snow is also respecting the system accessibility settings, it won't be there if you prefer reduced motion.

Here's the source code for server admins: https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/mastodon/commit/9bf1563af50842a5f61b34b7cc095fb746e5d15b#diff-5fcd1b6168ec33e0eff0a05fcdeacfab68e261215bbdb719be6b3526173be770

Nowadays programming in a programming language I don't use daily seems to always require an upgrade cascade of editors, tools, plugins, dependencies, libraries, my DNA, ??? I put some effort into keeping my environment static but all it takes is one autoupgrading thing I missed to kick off one of these cascades, and it feels like whack-a-mole trying to find and lock down every possible cause. This time it looks like a newer version of scala metals might have stopped supporting Java 11 and somehow got updated without my knowledge (maybe? I'm guessing).

P.S. This is not an invitation to post critiques about any of these technologies or recommendations about what I should be doing instead.

My niece, almost 2, showed me a couple of her books today. 😁

My sister and her husband are definitely raising a nerdling!

The qubits were represented by rainbow-coloured large dots, so she flipped through the pages, pointed at them in turn, and said: "Ball! Ball! Ball!" 😊

"Games are not physics engines. They are experiences. And racing games, more than many others, deliberately manipulate reality to deliver those experiences."

A quote from this great article by @wassimulator, dealing on core building blocks of vehicle physics simulation in video games.

Awesome overview on the subject, even for folks not working physics code but on car games. Love it! 😍
