it was glorious and they left us with Haiku as a parting gift.
there’s no difference between google, amazon, microsoft, or you know whatever other techbro CEO company you can think of
wait, can i just not quote this?
“rc is my new best friend”
my website is hosted on my laptop now, good luck everyone
or maybe: instead of encrypting the transport, we make a habit of sharing encrypted files.
i guess another question is, do we need networking to be secure? or maybe should private messages be delivered another way?
the spam problem can’t be solved efficiently by maintaining extensive deny lists. the only scalable way to handle spam is with allow lists and trust networks.
fighting spam and illegal/unethical content is much easier if you have explicit control over who you accept messages from.
on second thought, fuck x86 and big computers. small simple and stupid is all i want to deal with anymore
mostly for the purpose of offline / async posting, not so much as a backup microblogs are not very important in an archival sense, its more about the transient moment
keeping a local copy of my posts in tw.txt format :ok_hand:
yup, everything is coming together now
i’d say in most cases, having another program in the mix is not the solution unless the problem is inherently technical and other software either misses the point, or solves a different (possibly overlapping) problem. its easy to think that hitting things with keyboards is a universal solution. especially if you have a lot of experience doing that. the common blindness of software people is the human elements that are often handled by other teams which eventually frame problems in technical terms for developers to deal with. then the naive developer goes home thinking they can replace the humans that make their work possible.
i really need to make my own client so i can stop browsing random tw.txt pods
i get it. to a certain extent, stability benefits agricultural humans. by now that’s baked into the culture quite deeply. sometimes it works even, but when things start to change nobody is prepared. things are supposed to change in an orderly fashion! they plea, horrified with the truth that we are not gods. we are not in charge, we are inhabitants of a world that can adapt to changes on a scale we can scarcely comprehend.
weird shit is normal, what’s weird is when folks think stability and permanence is normal.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i’m not malicious, i just expect you to be able to think for yourself.
if you take my advice, be sure you know why.
very happy to see progress on this front, i would love to use this as an opprotunity to go over my nawat learning materials again and copy them into a textual format using the new maya unicode allocations when they are ready

in the land of the free, i can only buy tequila at the state liquor store.
maybe i should update my kernel then i wanted to stick to lts, but that may not be an option. does alpine still have a hardened kernel?
mm yeah newlines without unicode is much better https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/issues/215
counterpoint: it is now the year 2021. if folk were going to develop any infosec hygiene regarding the web browsers they’d have done it by now. ~djsundog
seems like the \u2028 approach breaks some clients, maybe i will try another way https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/pull/166
i’ve been meaning to read these notes, maybe putting the book on my ereader will be a better reminder than whatever i did last time 😅
Last year, we spent 51 days at sea during the passage from Japan to Canada, it was the hardest thing we had ever done. We kept a physical logbook of daily happenings onboard. This is that logbook, revised, and with a ton of extra notes. https://hundredrabbits.itch.io/busy-doing-nothing

mfw alternative web = the same web, but good XD XD XD XD
nexus crashed again… this time i will disable c6 and see how it goes.
thanks to the peculiar tenacity of fixed-width typefaces, most programming languages can still be comfortably written on a 50-year-old typewriter. How’s that for backward compatibility?
my feddy friends are too fucking cool 😾

it would appear that twtxt puts me into the same domapine loop i would like to avoid this please.
i like being sincere.
maybe some day i will figure out what is making my server crash. slowly working my way down the list of things that cause a soft lock on a ryzen 1800x
agile / scrum is fine, but as a tool for developers to keep tight feedback loops with people who don’t know what they want well enough to give a formal spec; not as a tool for managers to squeeze productivity.
i have but one use of feddy per day, and i used mine this morning just to waste time
i have a compulsion to post. why do i have a compulsion to post?
are your thoughts always words? mine are only sometimes
