the only bit of the service i cared about was mailing my kindle address mobis/epubs (even the mobile kindle app receives these)

today i use a boox page, after a friend complimented his

https://shop.boox.com/products/page

I run any kind of android app on my boox, firefox, wikipedia, claude etc... You can install also google keyboard and enable swipe typing, it works really well. Only thing I am dissatisfied is the casing. It can break easily if you are a bit careless, unless you use its hardcover.

At least some of the Boox devices support Play Store, meaning that you can install termux.

probably because of android 11

okay so i'll be the sole commenter of: hex.ooo is an incredible domain name to me, maybe because i dig its UI, but certainly just in general

didn't know about ooo, maybe because it's not available on namecheap!

It's an awesome name.

If you go up one level, you can see this story is one entry in a great library of stuff:

when servo is ready i have plans to swap it into qutebrowser which ive been growing fonder of

Publish yours un-minified like OP, so we can easily riff w/ or w/o an LLM ;)

The author hasn't complained (yet). I will open source it if he wouldn't mind.

Regarding moat, I doubt the logic behind a server would prevent anyone to copycat game concept and graphics. Games have always been cloned as community remakes, with little recourse to take them down.

I wasn’t suggesting you open source it, for what it’s worth

generated wallpapers are my fav

though really i just mean changing wallpapers, like https://satelliteeyes.tomtaylor.co.uk/

my thing is a collection of public city webcams from around my state, that get applied to various displays on a cron. i add noise, saturation, etc. sometimes two displays get such a wallpaper that i find the combination lovely

( this is a top/bottom setup https://i.imgur.com/Xc8RdnW.jpeg )

now, this isn't really generative. but i've imagined and toyed with it. splotches of greyscale, or flip that and only splotches of color

i've imagined embedding secrets, whatever that means

What happened to all of OP's comments? I swear they were scattered throughout here last night? Did they prune themselves out? :P

I wouldn't consider the size of a MUD map by its pixels, really. You consider its size, in this case, by number of rooms

Though MUME is obviously large, a few ten-thousand rooms

Always known of MUME, though wasn't a part of my mud history. I've wondered how the other tolkien muds compare, though most would be much smaller worlds I'm sure.

If you set the Genre here to Tolkien you can see a list of some: https://mudstats.com/Browse

> MUME is a free multi user role-playing game based upon J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Middle Earth' that has been continuously running since fall '91. The action takes place in the late Third Age, before 'The Hobbit' and after the loss of the One Ring by Sauron. The key of Erebor was just found by Gandalf and all the epic tales narrated in 'The Lord of the Rings' may take place. MUME covers 23'000+ original rooms from the mighty Dwarven Halls beyond the Gulf of Lh???n in the West to the fringes of Mirkwood in the East, and from the ruins of Fornost in the North to the fortress of Isengard in the South. In this meticulously crafted world where fantasy tales come to life players join... https://mume.org/

You can read the original here https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/antimemetics-division-hub

There is also the rough draft. I've only read the wiki and the first draft of book

Oddly I gifted the actual book away before reading it (I can buy it again, I thought)

I've had a bugshop bookmark for a while. Never to buy, merely curious. I like bugs

https://bugsincyberspace.com/about/

glad to say search shows no "queen" results, though idk if that means anything

It's illegal to ship queen ants across state lines (let alone from out of the country) without a USDA permit, so you'll be hard pressed to find many sites willing to admit to it.

That said, Bugs In Cyberspace is well respected within the invert space - I'd be shocked if they were engaged in any kind of illegal insect trafficking. Roach Crossing is another solid place to buy from as well.

That is an awesome web site. I've always been tempted to look into buying one of those giant rhino beetles.

So I used to raise giant bugs for fun. Millipedes and rhinoceros beetles mostly. Only get the rhinos if you want a HUGE FUCKING GRUB for two years and a super cool beetle for like 3 months.

The grubs are gross and kind of a pain. You'll have a tank you have to keep close watch on for a couple years that is only dirt, because they don't really come out.

If you want big old bugs that are easy and cool, get Cameroon train millipedes. You used to be able to get African giant black millipedes, but there is a mite that destroyed that trade. But the train millipedes are almost as big. They're shockingly low maintenance and love eating vegetable scraps. And if you have a male and at least one female you are almost guaranteed to have a million billion babies at some point.
