Looks like @fr_brennan, who made the font I used, is on twitter 👋 hi Fredrick

.@mrled made a nice converter for Cistercian numerals based on my OpenType font for the system, FRB Cistercian. How nice. One less thing I'd eventually need to do.

I liked this video (~10 min) about the numerals, by the author of a linguistic puzzle book. https://t.co/tMnUwHQJar
@mrled
Cistercian is a fascinating system, which can encode a four digit decimal number into a single character. The four digits are represented by four quadrants around a central stave. https://t.co/FSCC1640NY
@mrled
Earlier this week, my doomscrolling was interrupted by a link to Cistercian numerals, so I made a little widget for playing with them https://t.co/F35zrnEKjU

This was fun, I'm really excited they finally published it today! You can submit your own if you want, I'll say the process was really smooth, Erez was very nice, and they have a copy editor to help you polish up. https://t.co/QQtkRHB2vP https://t.co/G0ttZvBCas

@andypiper Fixed in the thread + the script, thanks!
@mrled
https://t.co/uMuPeU8qQK (I'm bad at threads AND reading documentation, apparently)
@mrled
Oops, looks like I was wrong about the number of tokens - my script was requiring two tokens that were not actually necessary. Fixed. Thanks to @andypiper for the correction.

@mrled
@andypiper Oh, is that true? I admit I just copied some code I found somewhere that worked without reading the Tweepy docs first.
@andypiper
@mrled Why would you need the user access token and secret - you can just use a bearer token if the account timeline is public.
@mrled
But still, the results are pretty fun :) https://t.co/JVOgjZbqX7
@mrled
As a result, users will have to register a Twitter "app" to get the four tokens required to authenticate via the Twitter API, which is kind of annoying. I mean, FOUR tokens? Also, I think you have to give Twitter your phone number to make a new app.
@mrled
I only published the script that generates tweet databases, not the databases themselves, for two reasons. First, I'd need their permission to do so, but second, the databases would go out of date immediately anyway. Better to give people tools to regenerate databases on demand.
@mrled
Some of my favorite accounts here publish tweet-sized fiction, and they're excellent for this. Good examples: @ctrlcreep, @QuietPineTrees, @TheDoorTHEDOOR, and @invisiblefonts.
@mrled
I wrote a script to pull tweets from any user's public timeline, and ignore tweets with media/URLs or which are replies/RTs or in a tweetstorm, and save the result as a fortune database.
@mrled
Another mini-project based around the fortune command: creating fortune databases from a user's Twitter timeline.
https://t.co/OdrYMrkCdr
@mrled
It's a nice start to new terminals https://t.co/teRTiftRqZ
@mrled
Anyway, I put the fortune database up on GitHub (with permission)

Original tweet should say, behind the fan of a small NAS. As in, the air has already cooled the spinning disks in the NAS and is still more than enough to drop the Pi’s CPU temp by 15C.
@mrled
I am not accepting judgements about cable management or dust at this time, thanks in advance
@mrled
Building a kernel on this rpi 4 and putting it behind the EXHAUST fan of a small keeps takes it from 65C to 50C 🥵 https://t.co/h4SPIYV67z

@browniefed @vercel_support Are you using puppeteer by any chance? I encountered this a few months ago and it was due to the usage of a headless browser. one other thing to note is that this limit applies to all of your cloud functions combined because at least back then, Vercel didn't code split them
@browniefed
Required lambda files exceed max lambda size of 50000000 bytes
Anyway to debug this @vercel_support
There is literally no info other than this error message

Update: Got his one from Amazon and it powers the Switch with HDMI out. Smaller than the official charger from Nintendo, although unfortunately more expensive. https://t.co/VKdSvuX70v

@mrled
Ahh, another problem for later is getting a charger that works with HDMI. The refurb Nintendo dock didn't come with one, sadly, and the damn thing is very picky about power adapters that it will accept when outputting to the TV.
@mrled
I do want to eventually get streaming working, so that me and my brothers can hang out in our own homes and play separately on the same virtual couch. That's a problem for another day, though.
@mrled
Aftermath. https://t.co/G2oRymDwjh

It works :) here you can see it displaying into an HDMI capture device and showing up in OBS on my Mac. Unfortunately my capture device is too cheap for a good play experience -- there is too much delay. https://t.co/bTxW7pIclM

If you're going for incompatible, why not make them better? FFS. Fortunately, the kit comes with a driver for them.
