In-reply-to » @lyse /Me throws his keyboard off to the side, grabs his camera just in case and runs upstairs screaming "Yeah! Science B_ !"

Two days later Holly Shi_ … I got to see all four at the same time! 😲 Venus and Saturn on one side, Mars a tiny bit bellow the rising Moon on the other side then Jupiter in between but more towards the moon and mars half of the sky. Funny thing is seeing Aldebaran and nearly shitting myself out of excitement thinking it was Uranus 😅🤣

Couldn’t see shi_, but enjoyed observing the moon light slipping trough the fast moving clouds! I’ll take that as a win 👍

/Me came back with a soar neck …

In-reply-to » Heck yeah, that's really cool! Let's hope for a clear sky: "On the evening of 28 February 2025, all seven of the other planets in the Solar System will appear in the night sky at the same time, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars all lining up in a neat row – a magnificent sky feast for the eyes known as a great planetary alignment." https://www.sciencealert.com/a-rare-alignment-of-7-planets-is-about-to-take-place-in-the-sky

In-reply-to » 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.

Thanks, I’m trying my best. Also, nice to meet you (and welcome back?) @oevl@twtxt.net, never seen you around before. 🙌

In-reply-to » I'm still making progress with the Emacs client. I'm proud to say that the code that is responsible for reading the feeds is almost finished, including: Twt Hash Extension, Twt Subject Extension, Multiline Extension and Metadata Extension. I'm fine-tuning some tests and will soon do the first buffer that displays the twts.

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

In-reply-to » 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.

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

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.

In-reply-to » 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 was talking about the other day?

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?

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 🧘

In-reply-to » ROFL 🤣 I've found myself a new insult: :diffoff a vim command...

@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)

In-reply-to » hmm any ideas how to fix this case when there is no nick and it on a shared tilde hosting? http://darch.dk/timeline/profile?url=https://tilde.club/~deepend/twtxt.txt

@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)

In-reply-to » GoToSocial snapshot has gained "editing statuses" capabilities (and the ability to see the update trail as well). That was one of the things I wanted to most to be implemented. Actually, that sits at the top of my wish list. Next is push notifications.

@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 😅

In-reply-to » One thing I've learned over the many years now (approaching a decade and a half now) about self-hosting is two things; 1) There are many "assholes" on the open Internet that will either attack your stuff or are incompetent and write stupid shit™ that goes crazy on your stuff 2) You have to be careful about resources, especially memory and disk i/o. Especially disk i/o. this can kill your overall performance when you either have written software yourself or use someone else's that can do unconfined/uncontrolled disk i/o causing everything to grind to a halt and even fail. #self-hosted

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