Ta, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, yummy. It’s one of the very few good christmas songs in my opinion.

Brilliant, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, I didn’t think of the keystore! :-D

Me too, @aelaraji@aelaraji.com, I don’t know how many entire books I had to rewrite because of Ctrl+W irreversibly deleting the entire chapter.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting! I always use uBlock Origin to do that.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Did it work!? :-D

With these programmable keyboards today, one could easily make the keyboard type the entire password with one key stroke…

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Not only the print quality, but the t-shirt itself was often an issue in the past I’ve found. To be fair, my experience is from a decade ago.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Right, you showed this keyboard stand some time ago. I completely forgot about that.

@eapl.me@eapl.me @bender@twtxt.net @skinshafi@thunix.net The feed that nobody follows out of fear.

When I started programming in Delphi, I always included all the files (not only the *.exe, but also *.pas and what else there was) when giving friends my programs on floppy disks. I didn’t know that the executable was technically enough. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You won’t believe how happy I was when I turned off my work machine a few minutes ago. It feels absolutely amazing! :-D

Despite being a gray day, I still decided to have a longer lunch break and went for a stroll in the woods: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-12-12/ Just returned in time for the next meeting.

No surprise, @skinshafi@thunix.net, they can be easily mixed up. See, the hemming distance between prologic and _doesnm__ is just 7! :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Fear not, there is probably Paint on DOS! :-D

On a more serious note, what things did you 3D-print?

Yeah, @eapl.me@eapl.me, I kinda like file extensions in some situations. What do you think of twtxt.exe, @bender@twtxt.net? ]:->

Yeah, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! “Sorry boss, I accidentally removed the bug report, because the button suddenly materialized under my cursor.” :-D

Luckily, I do not have to deal with that UI from hell for three and a half weeks very soon.

Agreed, @bender@twtxt.net, bad typography always kills it for me, too.

@prologic@twtxt.net Maybe Becky mistyped, she’s a ninja and wanted to show off her naked sword. :-D

I hear you, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! I have to wait five seconds after opening any Jira ticket before the JS garbage has eventually fetched all the other information and rebuilt the DOM. Only then I can actually begin to scroll down to the information I’m after. Every fucking time.

@anth@a.9srv.net I envy you. I should have chosen that filename, too.

Thank you @bender@twtxt.net and @movq@www.uninformativ.de!

I partially fixed the code block rendering. With some terrible hacks, though. :-( I see that empty lines in code block still need some more work. There are also some other cases around line continuation where the result looks ugly. I have to refactor some parts to make this go more smoothly and do this properly. No way around that.

Turns out, my current message text parser does not even parse plain links. That’s next on the agenda.

Oh, I also noticed that this thing crashes when there is not enough space to actually draw stuff. No shortage of work. Anyway, time is up, good night. :-)

Finally, the message rendering in my tt Go rewrite produces some colors. There is definitely a lot more tweaking necessary. But this is a first step in the right direction.

@bender@twtxt.net There’s a lot of unused space left on the house!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha! I find it funny what brain autocorrects can come up with. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Heck yeah, gorgeous! Did you hike up there?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Uuuh, nice! Despite the weather service claiming that it is snowing at this very moment, there is absolutely nothing here.

It just worked fine like nothing had ever happened when I booted my laptop this morning.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de ; \m/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de :-D

Thank you, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! Luckily, I can disable it. I also tried it, no luck, though. But the problem is, I don’t really know how much snakeoil actually runs on my machine. There is definitely a ClownStrike infestation, I stopped the falcon sensor. But there might be even more, I’ve no idea. From the vague answers I got last time, it feels like even the UHD/IT guys don’t know what is in use. O_o

Yeah, it is definitely something on my laptop that rejects connections to IPv4 ports 80 and 443. All other devices here can access the stuff without issue, only this work machine is unable to. The “Connection refused” happens within a few milliseconds.

Unfortunately, I do not have the slightest idea how it works. But maybe I can look into that tomorrow. Kernel modules are a very good hint, thank you! <3

You’re right, it might be some sort of fail-safe mechanism. But then, why just block IPv4 and not also IPv6? But maybe because the VPN and company servers require IPv4, there is zero IPv6 support. (Yeah, don’t ask, I don’t understand it either.)

Haha, I never ran across this before: http://www.wtfpl.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/wtfpl-strip.jpg

LOOOOL, great programming tutorial music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yup8gIXxWDU

@skinshafi@thunix.net Ah nice, it indeed fixed it. I don’t get the warning anymore. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Congrats! :-) I still have to survive work next week.

Fuck me dead, what a giant piece of shit. On my Linux work laptop I have the problem that some unknown snakeoil “security” junk is dropping any IPv4 connections to ports 80 and 443. All other ports and IPv6 seem unaffected. I get an immediate “connection refused” when trying to estabslish a connection.

I had this problem four weeks ago on Friday morning the very first time at home. On Thursday evening, everything was perfectly fine. Eventually, I plugged in the LAN cable in the office and everything got automatically fixed. Nobody can explain what’s happening.

Then, last week Friday morning out of the blue, the same issue was back. So, I went to the office yesterday and it got fixed again by plugging in the network cable. This evening, I have exactly the same bloody problem again.

What the hell is going on? Does anyone have any ideas? I’m certainly not an expert, but I don’t see anything suspicious in iptables or nft rules. I also do not see anything showing up in /var/log/kern.log. Even tried to stop firewalld, flush the iptables and nft rules, but that didn’t result in any changes.

@skinshafi@thunix.net You might want to consider adding basic caching support:

… returned 200 but no Last-Modified header - can’t cache content

@mckinley@twtxt.net To help saving the planet is a good reason. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Brilliant! How can I join?

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Nothing to see, move on. Totally safe, no danger to the public. Yikes!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh man, this is beautiful! We had sunshine all day long. But it was cold, too. When I left the house in the late afternoon, the sun was creating this magical red light. I just hit the right time, all the autumn colors popped out like crazy when I walked down the street. Didn’t bring my camera, though.

Have fun, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! :-) But I’m out.

@xuu@txt.sour.is That’s cool, I read chapter one and will continue.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Ah, so you inspired people with something absolutely new to them. That’s cool. :-)

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Cool! Just curious, did you run into somebody who already heard of twtxt before? Or maybe even tried it.

@prologic@twtxt.net Very nice! Like a castle moat. :-)

I had to go to the office today and both train rides worked out just fine. Surprising!

@prologic@twtxt.net Cool! Enjoy your vacation!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’ll ask them when I see somebody around next time. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Exactly, that’s a really weird “r”. The only thing I can think of is that the wooden letters were cut out on a bandsaw. Whoever made the sign wanted to avoid cutting a hole in an uppercase “R”, because they had no jigsaw on hand. So, they went with the lowercase one.

@bender@twtxt.net Wow, crazy. Well, at least your own place seems to be safe. Stay alert and don’t infect yourselves with salmonella.

@bender@twtxt.net Ta! <3
