@prologic@twtxt.net Don’t you dare fix it xD it’s not a bug, it’s a feature! xD

That pretty cool! I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen an actual IRL rainbow let alone a double rainbow. 😅 Thank you!!

ever heard of our lord and savior nb ? 😇

That’s pretty awesome @ ! I’ve seen your contributions to twtxt-el and wondering if you’ve been updating the same one or made another from scratch. either way, I can’t wait to give it a try! 🙌 cheers

Thank you for your kind words @prologic@twtxt.net 🙏 things will indeed.

@prologic@twtxt.net would it be enough to spin up a reverse proxy/Tunnel like the one you did? 😏

Thank you @bender@twtxt.net Much appreciated 🙏 and Sorry you/anyone had to read that…

I’m usually comfortable keeping my hardship to myself, most especially AWAY from the internet; an act of kindness of sorts towards others, “Everyone’s got their own problems to worry about” kind of thing.. But maaan am I starting to believe creating a twitter account would be a healthy decision 🤣🤦 Read nothin’ out there, just a one way echo chamber of sorts to let that shi_ out of my chest. It seem that’s what everyone else’s been using it for all this time.

A Bsky would be even better! 😂 I’d get to shi_ post and yap all I want, allll the way from terminal and never ever have to look back at it or whatever comes out of it. But I digress…

I FU_ing despise this … whatever this is. I wish I could just wake up in some sort of parallel universe where everything is just sunshine and rainbows, alas, life would be just as meaningless.

and sorry you had to read this if you did.

Shit in my life has been spiraling out of control at an unbelievable rate. And just when you think life can’t get shittier it dumps an even bigger N° 2 on yO face.

@xuu@txt.sour.is ROFLMAO! 🤣 reading that, the Tech bro sounded in my mind like Cow from Cow and Chicken

@bender@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de I appreciate you! and don’t you worry about it, if 2025 doesn’t behave itself we Will make it! 🦾 (now I know the real meaning behind the expression of Making it)

I was looking for an #mpd/#rofi script and stumbled upon this repo adi1090x/rofi, it is just 🤤 DELICIOUS! … and a great reference/kick starter for making my own.

Seriously @prologic@twtxt.net you should think about making a pink theme the De Facto for yarn, even the 🧶 emoji is pink! 😆

HAHAHAHA! 🤣 I freaking love this reaction. Welcome aboard @gretahayes@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz

@bmallred@staystrong.run did you rotate your twtxt file or something happened to your twts? 🤔 asking just in case…

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yep, I gave it a spin locally! I freaking love the cute logo and the UI is fiiiine 👌 my TUI browsers love it just as much …

Image

hmm… apparently the invalid twts are the latest ones I’d posted from Timeline but highly probably because I’d tried to restore them manually, after unintentionally overriding my twtxt file with one that was out of date 🤦

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh! no need to be sorry and feel free to keep at it if it helps, I don’t mind. It’s just that I’m always on the lookout for corpo-bots and crawlers slipping through the cracks (a fun little game of sorts) 😅 the only thing I let them see is a robots.txt telling them to :diffoff

Also, I’m curious about the invalid lines in my feed. is it something I should lookout for in future?

Any idea What’s this "twtxtfeevalidator/0.0.1" UA about? I thought I could ask before throwing a 1000GB file at it 🪤 could it be the same ‘xt’ thing @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org was talking about the other day?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @prologic@twtxt.net twtxt-el ?

Saved, I hope that didn’t anyone’s timeline… 😅

Shi… I forgot to pull my twtxt file before twtin’ … let me see if I can recover them lost timeline twts.

Awake since last year… 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net Thank you 🙏 wish you all the best! 🙌

Ok, amma start twting from my timeline instance, let me know if I break something xD

Happy New-new year I guess 👋😁

Good riddance 2024…
2025, be good or else.

Happy new year Twtxt people. I’m grateful for getting to meet/talk to you all, It certainly was the best thing to have happened to me in this “2024” chapter of my life.

Had to turn my freeBSD pet computer off in hopes of saving a couple of pennies off of the power bill. 🥲 And having had a blast spending time living in tty earlier this year, I thinking about daily driving the RPi4B for a while and let the main beast hibernate as well 🧘

@prologic@twtxt.net it offends someone with a different opinion? 🤣

No, seriously… :diffoff is used to disable vim’s diff mode that’s usually started running vim -d someFile someOtherFile or by having both files on a split window and applying :diffthis on both panes. (just learned this this morning)

ROFL 🤣 I’ve found myself a new insult: :diffoff a vim command…

@mckinley@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net or just be like… “We don’t need Microshaft’s Minecraft, We already have one at home!” 🤣

#Luanti/#MineTest FTW!

@emmanuel@wald.ovh It is working! I’ve just noticed your feed link in my access.log and came by to say Hello! 👋 just give it a minute and others will notice your feed as well.

@maurice-renck@maurice-renck.de 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net No I’m not trying to standardize the domains themselves xD I was just hinting at filtering cases where nick is identical to a level of a domain; in order to show shorter format nicks within clients, i.e: @nick.domain.ltd or @nick.ltd instead of a @nick@nick.domain.ltd or @nick@nick.ltd. Just like what @sorenpeter@darch.dk already did with the nick = domain case. (unless I’m missing the point)

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Here are two more cases:

• nick = subdomain: https://aelaraji.com/timeline/profile?url=https://lyse.isobeef.org/twtxt.txt -> lyse.isobeef.org
  
• nick = second level domain: https://aelaraji.com/timeline/profile?url=https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt -> aelaraji.com

@bender@twtxt.net Le Me is very tempted to spin up my own but not sure my pet computer(/server wannabe) and stone age bandwidth can withstand the Fedi-load 😅

Merry Xmas everyone! have a blessed and happy day! 🎉

@prologic@twtxt.net /ME taking notes… 📜✍

@prologic@twtxt.net there’s @deadblackclover@deadblackclover.net’s twtxt-el already, I couldn’t use it correctly when I’ve had just discovered it (yes, #emacs skill issues) … but it has been updated since then. I should give it another spin 👌

Have fun @johanbove@johanbove.info and see -(or read?)- you soon!

@prologic@twtxt.net Yes! then there was this fun breaker of an article but hey, I ain’t doing it for security 😆 so I’ll just keep on keeping on.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m scratching my head already trying to figure this one out 🤣 not sure if just mirroring ldd’s output into my image’s content would do, -I’ve Just found about that one by the way.- but I’ll never know until I try.

@bender@twtxt.net Dud! you should see the updated version! 😂 I have just discovered the scratch #container image and decided I wanted to play with it… I’m probably going to end up rebuilding a LOT of images.

Showing my nephew around linux… and what’s a better example of text editing in terminal than an actual twt? eh? 😆

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Beautiful shots as usual! thank you for sharing these with us. 🤘

Way to go F*** Book! With another $263M going down the drains … And people’s lives/data with it.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de HAHA! speaking of reflexes, Ctrl+SHIFT+v to paste and Ctrl+a to get to the start of the line, get me all the time when I’m using a browser … Ctrl+w (delete back a word) is the worst! tabs go Pouf! 🥲

hey @iolfree@tilde.club ! it’s been a while, welcome back!

Another test testing your test! 😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de that’s not THAT old! it still can kick a$$ 👍

All this, really makes me want to touch some Blender, it’s been a while since last time I did xD … I’d better give it a spin while I still can xD.

@bender@twtxt.net Hmmm… it makes sense. Now I curious, how old is his hardware though? is it SolveSpace kind of old? or reaaaally Blender 2.4 series kid of old!? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I know, nobody asked 🤡 but, here are a couple of suggestions:

• If you’re willing to pay for a licence I’d highly recommend plasticity it’s under GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, Version 3.
  
• Otherwise if you already have experience with CAD/Parametric modeling you could give freeCAD a spin, it’s under GNU Library General Public License, version 2.0, it took them years but have just recently shipped their v1.0 👍
  
• or just roll with Autodesk’s Fusion for personal use, if you don’t mind their “Oh! You need to be online to use it” thing.
  

(Let’s face it, Blender is hard to use.)
I bet you’re talking about blender 2.79 and older! 😂 you are, right? JK

I really, really have to go get some sleep. If you see me online before at least 6 hours, punch me in the face!

@lime360@lime360.nekoweb.org Hi there! 👋

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Damn! I’ve been there, and it sucks when it comes to that. and I may be hallucinating but I believe there was some dll file I had to download and put somewhere in blender’s folder and that got it to work back then. Also, what’s the latest version of #blender you could run?

@eapl.me@eapl.me you could use the tw.txt as your primary url and keep the old one as a secondary for a while (maybe even do the opposite) maybe even create the new tw.txt file and make use of the prev metadata pointing at the old … 🤷

# nick = eapl.me
# url = https://eapl.me/tw.txt
# url = https://eapl.me/twtxt.txt

or …

# url = https://eapl.me/tw.txt
# prev = https://eapl.me/twtxt.txt

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club It looked like elisp at first glance… is it? 🤔

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I sent that mention manually for a demonstration as mentioned in the previous twt. Used the curl method.

Correction: The webfinger thing doesn’t point out where the webmention endoint is. and I should add in a # webmention = https://... to my twtxt file. My bad!

@prologic@twtxt.net sure! I don’t know if this is what you need but, let me give it a try.

• I have Timeline installed, which has an endpoint to process #webmentions. Mine for example is https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention which you can find by querying https://aelaraji.com/.well-known/webfinger.
  
• If you mention someone from #Timeline itself, it takes care of querying that and sending in the mention for you.
  
• Otherwise (what I personally do) you could just:
  

curl -i -d 'source=https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt#:~:text=2024-12-09T01:22:37Z' -d 'target=https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt' https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention

basically what @sorenpeter@darch.dk mentioned in his article Here.

Afterwards, the mentions are stored in their own mentions.txt feed. The one from the example above looks like this on my Timeline :

Image

Feel free to spam my endpoint if you’d like to give things a try. 👍

[P.S: personally, I don’t seem to get the mentions if I add the Text fragment part to my target]

@bender@twtxt.net I wonder where that dude who was hosting his twtxt feed in a google drive go? 😆 that was hilarious!!

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Noice!! just gave a try… and it’s looking way better! -not that the old format was bad, it’s just that this one is looking more readable-

Image

@sorenpeter@darch.dk What are we testing?

@discoverbsdthebsdcommunitylinklog@feeds.twtxt.net This is interesting. Not giving up on #FreeBSD #jails yet but definitely have to give this a try; and if my #podman workflow goes as smooth as it does on #Linux I might just end up installing FreeBSD on the #RaspberryPi too! 🥳

although the only #Go things I’m running in there are a WriteFreely blog and the Saltyd #SaltyIM broker … each running in separate #FreeBSD #jail, those are still running the 14.1-Release (at the moment) anyways.

Upgrading my FreeBSD box to 14.2-RELEASE … I may have read something about some-Go-thing breaking but 🤞

@movq@www.uninformativ.de The view in these is pretty gorgeous as well!! 👌

@movq@www.uninformativ.de tried translating that and it said Art lover/enthusiast, that could be correct since that despise of the artificial stems out of “Love for the Actual real Art” although that’s a subjective statement in itself; xD duckduckgo’s translation thing spat out “künstliche-Kunsthasser”

/me wantis to learn german so bad!

@david@collantes.us my replay stayed pinned to the bottom of neomutt like an eye soar, I had to delete the OP. xD I still don’t know how to archive stuff in (neo)mutt.

@bender@twtxt.net there’s Pub too but is still experimental I think …

Warning: pub is still in development, if it breaks, you can keep the pieces.

@prologic@twtxt.net You know what! let me get back to you on that–I’ve never never tried to do CGI scripting before and have zero knowledge about it.

/Me adding a new entry in a #Todo list.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve seen plenty but I doubt you could use any (other than PHP) to actually serve your pages, anything you want to serve, you put in a ~/public_xyz folder (your php files go there too for Apache to serve), no config files/server setting.

But don’t take my word for it, I just got there and still yet to meet people and learn a bit of IT wizardry from them ;)

@prologic@twtxt.net Twtxt wise, it was kind of disparate at first xD with no access to logs as you may have read on the alt-feed itself. But then, @sorenpeter@darch.dk’s script came to the rescue … like, just in time 😁 Otherwise, everything else is fun as publicised, exploring and learning along the way.

@prologic@twtxt.net There’s always my log.html page if it helps… and while we’re still at it here’s the other twt #z2ymlkq for reference ;)

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah! If you remember I was curious about how people managed their stuff hosted on a Pubnix (this thread -> #z2ymlkq ) and I’ve just managed to join one …

@skinshafi@thunix.net That’s me by the way! just in case you’ve missed this one … (#44kqz4q) 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de if it’s just notifications that are bothering you could just go to your /settings/preferences/notifications and uncheck as much boxes as you need … unless you’ve already done that, then… sorry, not sorry we love your posts my friend!! xD And just so you know, you put a smile on my face whenever I stumble upon any of your retro-computing posts! 😁

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I freaking love this one!! It feels squeaky clean! Definitely using it for my sm0lweb stuff. Thank you for sharing 🙏

@bender@twtxt.net That’s the plan! 3;)

@prologic@twtxt.net I bet our twts are already being fed to circuit monsters… Remember the other day when I’d snapped out about some nonsense, being an A-Hole and what not? I’ve seen an AI company employee lurking around with not much interaction (if I’m not mistaken), so my mind went on auto-pilot mode thinking “This !#@%$ must be feeding us to the circuit peggy monster!! Arrr 😤” 🤣🤣🤣 but then again, one shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover (or an employee by his title) right?

@prologic@twtxt.net How so? I read the article but didn’t get who’s embracing and extending what to extinguish it…

[Update!] My request to join in has finally gotten accepted over on thunix.net like, two days ago! And now, my alter ego @skinshafi@thunix.net can have a Twtxt feed of its own x)

Beautiful shot @movq@www.uninformativ.de 🤩 … I’ve always had a hard time taking pictures in a foggy atmosphere, it never looks as dense as it does IRL. Any tips? 🥹

@prologic@twtxt.net My pleasure! glad I could help.

@prologic@twtxt.net Never seen macOS but I believe that’s a yes, just like in the second screenshot. That’s my whole screen zoomed on the cursor’s position and it keeps following.

@prologic@twtxt.net had to get Compiz from the edge/testing repo, but I believe that you can do without it. Xfce’s default Alt+Scroll thing works out of the box.

xfce’s default Alt+Scroll feels more convenient and you get to zoom in as much as you want as needed before things become indistinguishable, here you can see my original cursor overlapping to magnified one (it only showed during screenshot)

Image

@prologic@twtxt.net Not sure why Compiz but here…

Image

@quark@ferengi.one What would happen if I replayed to this twt from the future, when I’m still in it’s relative past? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Trust me, it would’ve made the world a better place.

@prologic@twtxt.net Oh! I’d like to see this one too. 3:)

… it even shows @sorenpeter@darch.dk’s article from 2020 in search results

Image

Trying one last thing before going Berserk on that MF …

Tearing down my web server and starting all over … that’s just way too many 502s it’s been throwing in the last couple of days.

Safe travels @prologic@twtxt.net have fun!

@prologic@twtxt.net I cannot… believe… It took me a “Single Search Query” to get HOOKED!! 🤩 Bonus: tried it from terminal too and it works just 👌

Behold … “Marginalia” ! My new favorite search engine!! And I have @mattof to thank for this find. Here’s their Blog post about it since I don’t think I could do a better job describing what it is. but, tl;dr: it’s a #smallweb focused search engine.

@prologic@twtxt.net make it 0.25% I had to reboot, “One… More… Time” 🎶

@prologic@twtxt.net Wait a second… something ain’t right here! when you say dropped to does that mean my feed isn’t reachable 99.77% of the time? all the time? Within last N days/hours? (the numbers were 98.29% the other time) or… my feed became more available After an outage? 🤔😅
