The theme for the third FediJam is 1: Defend Your Lands (proposed by https://fosstodon.org/@wholesomedonut)

Happy Jamming!

The way how #mastodon servers expose the tag feeds to the outside world is really cool.
You can make your tag like #fedijam and let anyone without account to look at it with a link like this:
https://mastodon.technology/tags/fedijam

I have included it at FediJam jampage, and essentially it now has a live newsfeed to which every jammer can push their progress and which is readable to the whole world.

If it was embeddable (better: js-free), that would be even more rad.

Welcome aboard!

Ok, this is going to be awesome.

And the theme of the #FediverseJam 1st edition is 0.
Which is 'Decentralized'

Black airless planetoid, star density so high the sky is white, and robots of different size and shapes.

Meet a proto-cast of a #narrative that takes way too much of my time.

Yep, #GNOME, a terribly convenient way.

I arrive at this gsettings manual because i tried to run https://cuttlefish.ch/ without a system-wide install.

To just compile it and run it, like you usually do with most desktop apps.

It does not work. It needs to have an _installed_ and _compiled_ _settings_schema_ for your app.
And it is just because reading the settings from text is somehow too slow.

GNOME, you understand that it is a windows registry at this point?

An occasional Neonhead reference
(screenshots included).

Feels like citing my own article in a science paper.

whoops, it seems like i put in the wrong #titan temp.
Lower temp (93.7 K) makes it only easier to make this kind of floating colonies.
It adds much more buoyancy than it adds insulation needs!

for the same or lower people counts, mass alowance per human can be now 1.5 tons+ with a large core hydrogen bubble and in the range of 200 with just humans.

#space #physics

Now we place a hydrogen-filled bubble (vacuole) in the center of our colony, so that hydrogen is kept warm by humans.
Hydrogen is ISRU-obtainable on #titan

We also equalize outside and inner pressure so everything is around 1.5 bar (humans can live like that).
Makes less stress on the structure.

This yields more realistic (700kg+) mass allowances per human if vacuole ratio is 0.8+, while keeping "tens of k" humans required

I call it... THE ANDROSPHERE

#physics #space

Another strange calculation of mine.
How big should be an airborne colony on titan to get sufficient heating just with warm humans themselves?

Answer:
Apparently not stupidly big.
a few tens k of humans?
Bonus answer:
But it won't passively float unless people and tech are very thin.

However, on titan, maintaining altitude actively might not be an issue.
This will also allow for smaller size.

#space #physics

Made a browser #space game for a #gamejam.
This is a one day build!
A sort of one-hand playable orbital mechanics thing inspired by my #scifi lore.

Looking very silly.
But sometimes you just want a bit of #scifi vibes for coding videos.

Nice design and does not seem to phone back, although this needs additional investigation.

Will probably play with it for some time.

no promises, just a thought and a game design exercise to get into shape.

Obviously a lot of goofy subversion and simplification will be needed if ever done for real (will see how it goes).
