@bender@twtxt.net Okay 👌

I disabled the compression of logs on my edge, which I’m hoping will fix the “instability” I see every now and again where my edge network just “falls off the face of the earth”. Some folks don’t really appreciate / understand this, but Disk I/O can kill your application(s) no matter what. I/O Wait is a real thing.

@xuu@txt.sour.is Haha 🤣 I’m already have “conversations” with my junior engineers on “how to best use” and “how to avoid” 😂

@arne@uplegger.eu Yeah SSE + HTMX is basically all you need really. The whole complicated/complex JavaScript ecosystem is overkill.

@bender@twtxt.net No I did 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Is dealing with spam fun though? DDoS attacks? DoS attacks? Scans for all kinds of stupid shit™? Malware? Advertising? Tracking? Spying? ..

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I wouldn’t consider this a “dark web”, no. It’d just be a new web on top of an already existing “physical” infrastructure, where the web that grew out of that is total garbage.

🤔 💭 🧐 What if, What if we built our own self-hosted / small-web / community-built/run Internet on top of the Internet using Wireguard as the underlying tech? What if we ran our own Root DNS servers? What if we set a zero tolerance policy on bots, spammers and other kind of abuse that should never have existed in the first place. Hmmmm

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh dear 😅 We’re starting to see this “garbage software” too over here 👈

@bender@twtxt.net So far so good 😊 I’ll let you know how things go though!

I keep getting this email occadionally:

Your iCloud storage is almost full

Now for various reasons, I don’t want my children to be using iCloud to store data, files, photos or any of the sort. They’re free to use iMessages, and other Apple services like the App Store, etc, but not storage.

So I’ve set about blocking iCloud Storage API(s) via AdGuard Home tonight as well as ensuring that my local network (client users) cannot bypass DNS policies and get out other sneaky ways, because some applications will just use other DNS servers, or DOH or DOT.

@important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev Fuxk me decision makers are fuxking stupid sometimes 🤣

The people that design these bills and laws are unhinged.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Good glad to hear it 😄

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Where do you stand on this nonsense? 🧐😆🤣

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Fuxk yeah 🙌

@important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev Thank fuxk 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Cool! 😎 You might be interested in my own learnings and toying around with building my own container engine / tooling (whatever you wanna call it) box. I had to learn a bunch of this stuff too 😅 Control Groups, Namespaces, Process Isolation, etc.

@bender@twtxt.net See the problem is you don’t live in the “busy” enough 😂 There are roaches everywhere here! 🤣 LOL snakes too! Plovers, Magpies, Crows, Spiders, even Deer for fucks sake 😂

@bender@twtxt.net We have quite a few that are basically part of our friendly neighborhood. They knew we won’t chase them aware, scare them, etc. In fact some of us find little cockroaches to feed them, tose ‘em up in the air and watch them sweep in and grab the little suckers 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Dunno 🤷

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Here’s my magpie 🤣

This ☝️

@movq@www.uninformativ.de damn! those are some fine looking chickens 😆

@zvava@twtxt.net feeds are fetched at least every 5m (if they’ve changed)

And my new migrated blog is up woohoo 🥳 https://prologic.blog/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Bahahahaha 🤣😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same 👌

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Cool! 😎

@bender@twtxt.net Yes! What you’re seeing in the demo is just demoing the routes file and redirects, etc/. Pathing more.

I think I’m just about ready to go live with my new blog (migrated from MicroPub). I just finished migrating all of the content over, fixing up metadata, cleaning up, migrating media, optimizing media.

The new blog for prologic.blog soon to be powered by zs using the zs-blog-template is coming along very nicely 👌 It was actually pretty easy to do the migration/conversation in the end. The results are not to shabby either.

Before:

• ~50MB repo
  
• ~267 files
  

After:

• ~20MB repo
  
• ~88 files

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I was gonna say 😅 The problem isn’t that bad 🤣 But still we should fix this soon™ 🔜

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You were seeing that mayn hash collisions for you to notice this? 😱

@bender@twtxt.net I’ve made several improvements today, tightened up the line height and density of the text plus a few other nice things too! I think I’m ready to start migrating my blog over to this 😅

@bender@twtxt.net I agree ! I reckon the line height could be a bit smaller 👌

Pretty happy with my zs-blog-template starter kit for creating and maintaining your own blog using zs 👌 Demo of what the starter kit looks like here – Basic features include:

• Clean layout & typography
  
• Chroma code highlighting (aligned to your site palette)
  
• Accessible copy-code button
  
• “On this page” collapsible TOC
  
• RSS, sitemap, robots
  
• Archives, tags, tag cloud
  
• Draft support (hidden from lists/feeds)
  
• Open Graph (OG) & Twitter card meta (default image + per-post overrides)
  
• Ready-to-use 404 page
  

As well as custom routes (redirects, rewrites, etc) to support canonical URLs or redirecting old URLs as well as new zs external command capability itself that now lets you do things like:

$ zs newpost

to help kick-start the creation of a new post with all the right “stuff”™ ready to go and then pop open your $EEDITOR 🤞

#awesome #zs

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Very cool! 😎

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Is this for your own OS? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Shh yes 🤣 this is the problem with politics 😆 by that definition; I’m not conservative 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Yes but I guess what I’m saying is; “so what about it?” Aren’t most places in the world these days “multicultural” to some degree or another? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Well see that’s just what the freak’n tests say about me haha 🤣

immigration and multiculturalism

What about it? I grew up in a multicultural country.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m glad it make sense for you 😅 I will never understand it. All I know is that I’m a conservative socialist and there’s a lot of “stupid shit”™ happening in the world (including my own country). I still blame extreme Capitalism.

Okay @bender@twtxt.net I think I’ve made enough improvements now…

https://zsblog.mills.io/

🤞

@bender@twtxt.net 🤣

I hope no-one here is a “nutter” 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de See here’s the thing… I just don’t fucking gt this whole “left” vs. “right” shit™ anymore. None of it makes any sense whatsoever. When my wife tries to explain it to me it’s completely the opposite to what you just said just now 😱 – So from here on, I’m just going to keep things simple” nutters” and “normal” 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net I feel you buddy 🤗 At one point we have quite a vibrant community. Phil was great, jlj too and Adi was well just Ado 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Yup! Fixing that now! 👌 Also the Tags page and the size of the trags is intentional, as more posts are tagged with the same tag, those will result in larger size rendered tags in a kind of “tag cloud” – At this this is the intention.
