@ -0,0 +10,4 @@## Bad Apple!! But It's An Animated QR CodeIf something exists, Bad Apple!! will be played on it, so [in this post](https://a.exozy.me/posts/bad-apple-animated-qr-code/) @a talks a little bit about "SWANTV", a project that allows you to share data without a network using an enhanced version of a QR code.The title is kind of a clickbait here. The project itself has nothing to do with bad apple, and it demonstrates that data transmission can happen with severe noise like having bad apple contour imposed on the image.
This is more like "quick response
movingflashing pictures", it being video (multiple frames a second) is important to mention methinks.Yeah, a better description would be "giant animated colored QR codes". Also, I personally like to call it Epilepsend even though the official name is SWANTV.
@iacore I dealt with the title problem with some lampshading which might not be the right solution, but I addressed your other concerns.
https://nvpie.exozy.me/quartz/Blogs/My-Linux-Desktop-Workflow
I wrote this blog showcasing my minimal tilling window manager based linux desktop workflow.
Nice post! I didn't know about your blog before this, but now it's in my feed reader! Would you also like for it to be added to https://feeds.exozy.me? Also, since your posts haven't been mentioned yet on exozine, we could include more of them like your Syncthing post in this issue. I also switched to Syncthing a while ago so I can write the commentary for that post.
Actually for past days I was struggling to settle for one blog platform. I used to manually post it on my old site (https://nvpie.exozy.me/mysite/#blog) where I recently updated these sme blogs but since I found quartz(https://quartz.jzhao.xyz/) I found it easier to manage both my blogs and years old notes datewise there. So if you subscribe to RSS feed on quartz you will get updates to everything I post there not just blogs. and aside from blogs other things are not exclusively mine sometime I just archieve stuff there for my knowledge base purpose. for pure blog only you can subscribe to this feed (https://nvpie.exozy.me/mysite/rss.xml) right here. I am also confuse myself and dont know what I am doing. so I leave it on you which feed to subscribe.
@nvpie You might want to mention in your Syncthing post that distro packages for Syncthing often already provide the systemd user service. Anyways, maybe we could add your blog posts only feed (https://nvpie.exozy.me/mysite/rss.xml) to feeds.exozy.me?
@cloudyy (and other people) I tried adding actual commentary this time rather than just summarizing the post, so maybe that's something we should aim for with the commentary.
Also, I think we've had this discussion before, but what's our convention on capitalization for the H2 headings? I'm leaning more towards only capitalizing the first word rather than title case for simplicity. In previous issues of exozine, we weren't really consistent, so maybe it doesn't matter.
I'll update it. Sure, Fine with me.
Ok
Personally, I also prefer to capitalize only the first word but I end up not interfering with the way each person writes (and I often forget and end up capitalizing more than the first word). If everyone agrees, we could make this a "standard".
Alright let's make only capitalizing the first word the standard then.
@cloudyy I pushed a commit that adds a discuss on Matrix paragraph to the end of each post, so can you check that I did it correctly?
@nvpie In your Linux workflow post, is bpytop++ just the same thing as btop?
@a you did it right, I just added a little margin at the bottom and a divider to improve it a little but keeping it simple.
@cloudyy Also, I usually send out the fedi post announcing the publication of each month's issue, but would you like to do that this time?
@a should I change it in previous issues or leave it as is and only apply it in future ones?
Sure, why not
Eh I don't want to open that can of worms, so let's just leave the previous issues untouched.
I described my own project (the toki pona one) since I don't expect it to be understood easily. If you can understand the code, please add comments to it.
I added commentary on daudix's post

@daudix made a cool blog post about rewriting their neocities website, sharing their experience of the rewriting procees.
Notes from @moksha: Neocities have given a space for people to come up with all sorts of cool and weird websites, So I recommend you to experiment with it.
currently learning git, so bear with my mistakes ;/
@moksha Yeah no worries, glad that you figured it out. By the way, code review is entirely handled by Forgejo, not Git.
@cloudyy We finished all the TODOs (thanks everyone!) so this should be ready now to be merged and announced on fedi.
