Jeg har oprettet et Matrix-rum til al fødiversrelateret snak på dansk. Dvs., snak om hvad der rør sig på og med Mastodon, lemmy, kbin, pixelfed, peertube, etc. etc.

Rummet har Matrix-adressen #foediverset:matrix.multiverset.net og kan tilgås lidt lettere fra det her link: https://matrix.to/#/#foediverset:matrix.multiverset.net

Til jer som evt. ikke ved hvad Matrix er, så er det en decentral og fødereret chatprotokol (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(protocol)). Hvis I f.eks. har en bruger på matrix.org og forbinder til mit rum på matrix.multiverset.net så forbinder I til en kopi af rummet på matrix.org som også lever hvis, f.eks., min server går ned. Man kan registere en konto på hovedserveren (matrix.org) via den 'officielle' all Element: https://app.element.io/#/welcome men der findes et væld af servere (https://servers.joinmatrix.org) og det er også muligt selv at hoste en (hvilket jeg gør). Se her: https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html
https://data.coop har en dansk Matrix server (sammen med en masse andre services) det koster dog 300kr om året at få en bruger der.

Det kunne være hyggeligt at se nogen af jer derinde!

Så vidt jeg ved er havvand 3.5% salt. Kan det passe at Hello Fresh vil have mig til at putte 140g salt i 4 liter vand til pasta? Lyder det ikke af voldsomt meget?

Men okay, man må vel tage deres opskrifter med et gran salt. De vil, f.eks., også tit have mig til at skære tomater i tern.

Hej feddit.dk

Jeg prøver at få noget musikdeling op at køre. Idéen er simpel: Del et nummer som andre skal have glæde af.
Hvis en af jer kan få det til at fungere med at føderere mit kbin-magasin her på feddit.dk, kan I evt. så dele linket i en kommentar?

Her er linket til magasinet (eller community for jer lemmyer): https://kbin.dk/m/musik

Edit: og link på feddit.dk er https://feddit.dk/c/musik@kbin.dk

New study reveals most classic video games are completely unavailable

I wanted to introduce the kids to Heroes of Might and Magic III so we could play some hot seat when it's raining over the holiday.

I use Mac, but found that there's an open source implementation of the engine called VCMI (https://vcmi.eu) that runs on Mac.

I bought the game for 9 euro on GOG (https://www.gog.com/en/game/heroes_of_might_and_magic_3_complete_edition).
Downloaded the offline back version and extracted the files using innoextract (installed with brew install innoextract) and followed the guide here: https://wiki.vcmi.eu/Installation_on_macOS

It worked! There's also a bunch of mods that's installable through VCMI. For instance one with orchestral music scores by the Heroes Orchestra: https://www.youtube.com/c/HeroesOrchestra?app=desktop

MyHouse.wad is the perfect scary story and the perfect game according to its cult following

Advanced macOS command-line tools (spotted on Hacker News). Some pretty neat tools, e.g., textutil to convert between different document formats.

Det lader til at Songwhip er god til at generere links til numre på tværs af streaming services, YouTube o.l.

Jeg har haft held med bare at paste et Spotify link ind på https://songwhip.com

Det her nummer dukkede op på min discover weekly på Spotify her til morgen. Havde helt glemt hvor fedt Zeal & Ardor er. Prøver også lige en ny service til at generere links til sange.

Det er skørt de er fra Schweiz!

Over the last years I been thoroughly enjoying playing a mod of Ultima Online called Ruins & Riches. Ruins & Riches (formerly called UO Odyssey) is designed to provide a rewarding single-player RPG experience. Players of old Ultima games will find the world familiar, and a lot of the quests and lore draw upon the old games. The main land of Ruins & Riches is a Sosaria based on the map of Ultima III: Exodus, but the whole world consists of multiple lands to be discovered and a dizzying amount of dungeons.

Ruins & Riches provides an open world experience that can be enjoyed alone or together with friends. You can embark on quests ranging from small artifact pickup quests in a particular dungeon, to massive quest lines that can take days or weeks to complete.

The world and its lore is discovered through books you find on your adventures, and most often they require close reading to comprehend what the next step on your journey is. Collecting clues and finally figuring out how to progress is very rewarding.

Parts of the game will feel familiar to UO players, but a lot of the systems have been changed and whole new skills and mechanisms have been introduced. You can become a priest first by proving yourself by finding a mallet and stake and slaying hordes of vampires, or find the path of the jedi (or the syth!), and a lot more.

The developer of Ruins & Riches, Djeryv, has been building on the game for a decade, and the current version is quite stable and complete. I played Ultima Online from when it launched in 1997 and on and off for the next 10 years both on unofficial and official servers. I've often wanted to return, and Ruins & Riches has given me the opportunity to reexperience the excitement like when I first played Ultima Online almost 25 years ago.

Late 2022, the website for Ruins & Riches went offline. Reasons for this are unknown. However, the developer still updates the files at the end of the two google drive links they used for distributing the mod. A fan has made a page with links to them as well as to the manual here: https://ruinsandriches.neocities.org/

While Ruins & Riches can be experienced fully by yourself by hosting it on your own machine, I missed company and set up a small server where we now are a handful of players or two exploring Sosaria. Here's the link for that: https://www.multiverset.net/ruinsandriches/ You are more than welcome to join us there.

Der er kommet et nyt stylesheet der hedder Tokyo Night. Her kan I se et screenshot og de indstillinger jeg bruger.
