@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de The side effects ARE what got me into drinking coffee in the first place, now it feels like I’m fighting them back for my life 😅

In-reply-to » Anyone watching/watched Black Mirror Season 7? 😵‍💫😵 I've been watching the first episode and a couple of minutes into the third act then I was like ... Oh boy, I need a break! They're just so Fu__ing good, I'll give them that!

P.S: the couple first Seasons and Her (The movie) are the main reasons I find it a bit difficult to go back to mainstream social media or even care about smartphones 😆

@bender@twtxt.net yeah, they are. Usually, the full season gets published the same day if I’m not mistaken. And, please tell me you won’t be binge watching the whole thing at once!? 😆

In-reply-to » i wrote (citation needed) a PHP script thing that does a check for on demand TLS purposes and it works but like only partly? like there's records in the DB that it 404s on even though. they are very much there. so idk what's up with that but i've worked at this all day i'll leave it at this for now

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz At least it wasn’t Vibe coding, so just take the win! 😆

In-reply-to » Some A hole has been trying to pull every single Twtxt feed that existed/still exists since forever. How do I know? Welp' They've been querying my Timeline™ instance for all of it, every single twtxt file and twt Hash they can find. 😆🤦 It must have been going on for days and I have just noticed... + it's all coming from the same ASN AS136907 HWCLOUDS-AS-AP HUAWEI CLOUDS

@prologic@twtxt.net This shi_ is as fun as it is frustrating! 😆 the bot is poking at me from a different ASN now, Alibaba’s.

  1. Short term solution: I’ve geo-locked my Timeline instance since I’m the only one using it (and I only do so for reading twts when I’m away from terminal).
  2. Long term: I took a look at your Caddy WAF but couldn’t figure things out on my own; until then, I’ll be poking at Caddy-Defender, maybe throw in a Crowdsec for lols… #FUN

twtxt is a decentralised, minimalist microblogging service for hackers.

The keyword here is microblogging. But it doesn’t feel like we’ve been (relatively speaking) doing much of that lately… maybe I go the concept of microblogging wrong.

It’s been ages since the last time we’ve had as much and as frequent of a rainfall as we’ve been having this week. The smell, the sounds, the wind pushing against my body … are taking over my senses with joy, leaving no room for worry™ (about the possibility of a flood).

it’s been while since I’d stopped #window-manager hopping and just settled with #Herbstluftwm but I’m NGL, the River #Wayland compositor is starting to grow on me… I’m still not sure if it’s just me but something about it feels clean and snappy. The shortcuts in the vanilla/example configuration feel a bit clunky, but then again, it’s just me being used to the same old ones I keep adopting and replicating across WMs. I’ve got 0 energy for ricing so I’ll just roll with the vanilla config as is (maybe add in a short-cut for a launcher but that will be it).

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev I believe you have just reproduced the bug… it looks like you’ve replayed to a twt but the hash is wrong. I can see the hash here from Jenny, but it doesn’t look like it corresponds to any{twt,thing}. if you check it out on any yarn instance it won’t look like a replay.

My hypothesis about that thing breaking my twts is that it might have something to do with the parenthesis surrounding the root twt hash in the replay twt-A when I replay to it with fork-twt-B; I imagine elisp interpreting those as a s-expression thus breaking the generation precess of hash (#twt-A) before prepending it to for-twt-B … but then I’m too ignorant to figure out how to test my theory (heck I couldn’t even recalculate the hashes myself correctly in bash xD). I’ll keep trying tho.

In-reply-to » (#56wivca) I suspect the problem is that the content is updated. It looks like a design problem.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev yes, that usually happens when twts get edited and we just made a gentlemen agreement to avoid edits as much as possible (at least for the time being). But the thing is, That is not what’s happening with my broken twts’ hashes. Since I’ve bee mostly replaying to my own twts as a test and I know for sure that I haven’t edited any. (I usually fork-replay instead of edit a twt when needed)

In-reply-to » @aelaraji Can you give me examples of hashes that you have detected wrong between Emacs client and twtxt.net? Perhaps there is some character, some space, that is creating the discrepancy.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev yeah, sorry I couldn’t get back to you sooner. I’ve already made an account on codeberg in order to file in an issue but, I just can’t get myself to concentrate with everything going on with the family lately. I’ll do my best and get things done properly and soon

In-reply-to » I don't think so, at least the tests I did passed. If you're pretty sure it's a bug, please create an issue in the repository with the specific case and I'll investigate it. There are 2 buttons to make replicas, one makes a replica in the thread where the twt is located (this is the one that should be used the most, as it serves a thread), the other creates a replica to a specific twt. I'll let you know a bit about the status: I'm just now implementing the thread screen. There you can be sure where you are. It's a bit confusing right now, sorry. I think the client is still in alpha. When I've finished what I'm doing, and the direct message system, I'll freeze development and focus on creating more tests, looking for bugs and making small visual adjustments.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev hmmm… pretty strange, isn’t it? replaying to threads worked perfectly, I’ve only had that problem trying to replay to a twt that was part of a thread.

As an example, this one is a Fork-Replay from Jenny. My next twt will be a replay to this exact twt but from twtxt-el as a test.
Then I’will file an issue if it doesn’t behave the way it’s supposed to. Cheers!

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m speculating, but if I had to guess I’d say it’s probably asking for your user password in order to access some user keyring (or whatever your OS uses to manage user secret credentials) used to safely store your passkeys related data in order to do its passkeys /ME doing air quotes Magic™ … you could try with a different password manager to avoid said scenario.

Also, passkeys UX sucks.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Sweeeeet! Just gave it a try, you’ve done a wonderful work 🫡 I wanted to replay from there but couldn’t go past the first page of the feed. It kept freezing on me and complaining about some bad Url (as mentioned on the test twt), so I’ll have to dig through my follow list and see where I effed up this time. 😅

Here’s a twt from @andros@twtxt.andros.dev ’s new version of Twtxt-el 🥳 It feels WAaaaaY better! although it freezes on me as soon as I navigate to the next page complaining about some bad url, but the chronological sorting of the feed as well as the navigation buttons (links?) are a great addition. Looking forward to the next update already! 😁 🥳🥳🥳
