@dce@hashnix.club these are some of the same reasons that I enjoy Yarn.social/Twtxt 🙌

@dce@hashnix.club Twet is a far better command line client. Yea 👌

@dce@hashnix.club I feel you 🤗

@dce@hashnix.club Hello! 👋 Welcome! 🤗

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I’m worried about this too. What’s the systemic problem at paay here? Capitalism at it’s extreme? 🤔

To combat malware and financial scams, Google announced today that only apps from developers that have undergone verification can be installed on certified Android devices starting in 2026.

This requirement applies to “certified Android devices” that have Play Protect and are preloaded with Google apps. The Play Store implemented similar requirements in 2023, but Google is now mandating this for all install methods, including third-party app stores and sideloading where you download an APK file from a third-party source.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de TL;DR? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I just got a bit curious after watching your video and reading your OP 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha yeah rightio, and yeah inches suck 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What do you define as “expensive”? 🤔 (I’ve always thought of modern-day painters as a “rip”, and the ink my god 🤯)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Is there like a TL;DR of this standard? I can’t say I remember this tbh 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Got a link to this

ESC/P standard.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Are you sure?

because there is virtually no market for these devices anymore, meaning new ones are very, very expensive.

I think dot matrix printers are still pretty common in many Point of Sales (POS) registers right? At least here in AU they’re very common. I had a quick look myself today, there seems to be quite a solid market for these types of printers. In fact even EPSON still sell Dot Matrix printers themselves 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Kind of curious now… Is there a (to buy new) dot matrix printer you’d recommend if someone wanted to get into this sort of thing (sending plain ‘ol bytes to a printer port)? 🤔 (I remember this back in the ye ‘old days!)

@twtxtory@twtxtory.adn.org.es it is designed that way on purpose 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de wut da fuq?! 🤯

@thecanine@twtxt.net Haha I thought myself there might ahve been too many pixels on the tail, but I’m no expert in this field 🤣 It’s still a nice canine though! 👌

@thecanine@twtxt.net My daughter (who is pretty good already at art and only 10 :D) says this looks like a “blob” 🤣 I tried to explain to her that this is pixel art, but I’m not quite sure she has the same appreciation (yet) 😅

@eric@itsericwoodward.com Name change is no worries! 😉 Interesting/funnily enough my client yarnd seems to have picked it up automatically which is nice (I’ve historically always had a few bugs to iron out there 🤣)

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Also just a heads up, GIF(s) aren’t supproted as an Avatar type on yarnd (what runs twtxt.net). I’d change this to something that’s more supproted like PNG, JPEG, etc.

@eric@itsericwoodward.com I prefer to call what we’ve built here really an “ecosystem”. A network isn’t really an apt description. Twtxt/Yarn is arguably IMO the purest decentralised non-social social media ecosystem I think in existence today 🤣

@xuu@txt.sour.is Your ingress is via some kind of tunnelling too right?

@bender@twtxt.net This one: https://n8n.andros.dev/webhook/f0cfd6a6-60c8-4183-a26d-120bbd25a046

@eric@itsericwoodward.com Sure i! Welcome! 🤗

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Haha, yeah well “thinking” isn’t really something we even know how to define, let alone simulate 🤣

But maybe, just maybe this is why they’re pushing so hard to have this “Age Verification” bullshit. So they can then shut people down like me that routinely “speak up” and “against the status quo”. Bend over backwards? I think not! Assholes 🤣

I realize I’m a nobody, and no-one will care or listen. But to the various UK, EU and AU politicians pushing for this “Online Safety Act” bullshit…. You’re all fucking utter morons! I can’t wait for the backflash of what will come next. Idiots.

@bender@twtxt.net It was 🤣

Today I finally got rid of my /29 IPv4 subnet with my ISP used to power my ingress. No longer.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de No one would figure out how to :q! ? 🤣

This whole Age Verification that’s being rolled out in the UK, AU and parts of the EU is totally fucking bullshit. Death to the Online Safety Act.

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org Yeah replying is pretty easy if you see the first reply. Just preserve the so-called “Subject” 🤣

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org Hey 👋

@kiwu@twtxt.net Congrats 🥳

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Any time 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Here’s the full config I use.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Cool! 😎 Yeah I’ll add that soon™

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh sweet! I was gonna say, setting up those rules is a bit “complicated” 🤣 But I’m glad you worked it out! 👌

Hello @jassim@twtxt.net 👋

There is a missing feature I’ve been intending to add to though, which is that any link that looks like a URL that might be an image, for example, ends with .png or .jpg or whatever, we should just render that as an image and not expect users to wrap it in Markdown image links ![](...)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh what do you mean by images don’t embed? They definitely should! By default however all domains are blocked, so you might want to either allow some domains or just put in a .* entry to allow all/any domsins. Screenshot attached

@arne@uplegger.eu LOl that’s hilarious 😂

@kiwu@twtxt.net Hi!!!!!!!!! 😆 Welxome! 🙇‍♀️

@important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev Oh gawd, is the EU doing this “age verification” bullshit too!? Not just Australia?! 🇦🇺 Farrrrk!!!!! Help!!!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Just do it 🤣 I do this daily for work. It’s great!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Don’t worry, this hype will end as quickly as the last one haha 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Sounds about right 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha 😆 But OTOH not nearly as much as you think. Plus you get to build what you want!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org A web app called Floor Plan Creator

Been mucking around with designing my own camper (floor plan).
