Geek who happens to like dragons a lot, to put it lightly. Longer posts can be found on Mastodon: https://dragonchat.org/@bluefire.
Some wacky things happen in multi-lingual countries like Belgium. Because you have no idea which language someone speaks, apps send out the same notification in multiple languages. Likewise, in Belgian cinemas, you will find that the subtitles consist of one line in French and another in Dutch.

A new update for Draconic ID is out! Here is what's new:

- A collapsible "details" element is now available for profiles, ideal for longer pieces of text.
- Mastodon icons now show for nearly all public Mastodon instances.
- Several bug fixes.

Thanks for using Draconic ID. 💙

I was looking forward to reaching 100 dergs on Draconic ID. Never once was I expecting to far surpass it. o--o;

It's been great having you all, connecting with locals and dragons who I've long not spoken with. Thanks for giving Draconic ID a chance. 💙

We're at 97, just a bit more!

You're the best! I couldn't have expected so many sign ups for Draconic ID. It has been incredibly heartwarming to see the map slowly come to life. 💙

I've worked on squashing some nasty bugs and a new list page (draconic.id/list). Can we get to 100 dergs? 👀

Alright, time to present something I've been working on for a really long time: Draconic ID, a place for dragons to shine.

Create a profile with custom theming, text and images, claim a territory of your liking on a 3D earth and stay in control with flexible privacy options.

Finally!

After struggling to go beyond the default cube and model the horn in Blender. After printing dozens of plastic blobs and prototypes. My horns are done and I can't wait to wear them!

*insert obligatory horny joke*

After an hour of wearing these, I will definitely feel phantom horns...

Feeling horny again. This time experimenting with ultra light horns. How light can I make them before they get too fragile? This iteration will have thin walls and no infill.

Working on my next wearable horn prototype. This time, I am testing a system that allows you to screw them on. It feels solid, though now I'll need to optimise the weight so the balance is better. Hope I make it before my next furry convention.

And @rhaeloth.bsky.social, your horns are coming too!

I'm feeling horny today.

Just came back from #Castlefest! Wow, that was amazing. Reminds me a lot of MPS in Germany, which is the first event of its kind I attended. If you like medieval fantasy, this is the place to be! Great experiences, food, music and stalls.

My goodness, I did not know a different launcher could speed up your device and make it look sleek so much. I wonder if anyone recognises the font. 👀

Just upgraded my server with fresh drives and a UPS, now running #OpenMediaVault. My goodness, so many fun things to set up and play with right now... Just need a new modem, because the one my new ISP gave me is a bit too limiting (no bridge mode or NAT loopback). Luckily, I got a good deal on Ebay.

A friend got me this pin. He was surprised to find out I recognised where it's from: SCP-1762, Where the Dragons Went. Specifically, this video by Tale Foundry. One of the few videos that made its clickbait thumbnail "You Will Cry" come true. It's a wonderful and tragic story. youtu.be/mJW78y4CNIo

Aaah, the letter writing ritual... 💙

This is what B2, C1 and C2 German classes felt like to me.

Dragon statues in Barcelona, Spain. Or, at least, that's one way to call them. Some of these statues, though definitely not all, are more gryphon in appearance. It leads to an interesting discussion: at which point does something stop being a dragon? Is it purely arbitrary?
