@abucci@anthony.buc.ci see here in the okta docs: https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/api/webfinger/ they are adding a prefix to the acct
@xuu@txt.sour.is that doesn’t seem to fit the spirit of the spec, at least by my read (I could be wrong obv). The example on Wikipedia’s webfinger page,
{
"subject": "acct:bob@example.com",
"aliases": [
"https://www.example.com/~bob/"
],
"properties": {
"http://example.com/ns/role": "employee"
},
"links": [{
"rel": "http://webfinger.example/rel/profile-page",
"href": "https://www.example.com/~bob/"
},
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.example/rel/businesscard",
"href": "https://www.example.com/~bob/bob.vcf"
}
]
}
and then the comparison with how mastodon uses webfinger,
{
"subject": "acct:Mastodon@mastodon.social",
"aliases": [
"https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon",
"https://mastodon.social/users/Mastodon"
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.net/rel/profile-page",
"type": "text/html",
"href": "https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon"
},
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://mastodon.social/users/Mastodon"
},
{
"rel": "http://ostatus.org/schema/1.0/subscribe",
"template": "https://mastodon.social/authorize_interaction?uri={uri}"
}
]
}
suggests to me you want to leave the subject/acct bit as is (don’t add prefixes) and put extra information you care to include in the links section, where you’re free to define the rel URIs however you see fit. The notion here is that webfinger is offering a mapping from an account name to additional information about that account, so if anything you’d use a "subject": "acct:SALTY ACCOUNT_REPRESENTATION" line in the JSON to achieve what you’re saying if you don’t want to do that via links.
@prologic@twtxt.net Unfortunately the RFC’s are a bit light in this regard. While it makes mention of different kinds of accounts like mailto: or status services.. it never combines them. It does make mention of using redirects to forward a request to other webfingers to provide additional detail.
I am kinda partial to using salty:acct:me@sour.is, yarn:acct:xuu@txt.sour.is, mailto:me@sour.is that could redirect to a specific service. and a parent account acct:me@sour.is that would reference them in some way. either in properties or aliases.
@prologic@twtxt.net That was exactly my thought at first too. but what do we put as the rel for salty account? since it is decentralized we dont have a set URL for machines to key off. so for example take the standard response from okta:
# http GET https://example.okta.com/.well-known/webfinger resource==acct:bob
{
"links": [
{
"href": "https://example.okta.com/sso/idps/OKTA?login_hint=bob#",
"properties": {
"okta:idp:type": "OKTA"
},
"rel": "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer",
"titles": {
"und": "example"
}
}
],
"subject": "acct:bob"
}
It gives one link that follows the OpenID login. So the details are specific to the subject acct:bob.
Mastodons response:
{
"subject": "acct:xuu@chaos.social",
"aliases": [
"https://chaos.social/@xuu",
"https://chaos.social/users/xuu"
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.net/rel/profile-page",
"type": "text/html",
"href": "https://chaos.social/@xuu"
},
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://chaos.social/users/xuu"
},
{
"rel": "http://ostatus.org/schema/1.0/subscribe"
}
]
}
it supplies a profile page and a self which are both specific to that account.
@prologic@twtxt.net I think I spoke too soon. Got it running at https://arrakis.netbros.com/, for now. 😂
It seems like https://proxy.vulpes.one/ runs a code that once was written by @prologic@twtxt.net. Its rendering looks quite nice. Sadly, I am unable to compile it (modified code at https://git.vulpes.one/gopherproxy/).
@prologic@twtxt.net What is the SMART reading for the disk?
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org As far as I know, they’re still visible in the Web UI. Although, in the mobile app and youtube.com, I believe it tells you that the video isn’t available without having to click on it. They don’t tell you that in the RSS feed, and I agree; it gets annoying.
If we had a custom feed generator that hooks directly into the YouTube API, I’ll bet we could find that information and put “[Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled][Scheduled]” in the title for premieres and remove it when the video is available.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci did you know about the chip inside USB-C cables?

https://connectorsupplier.com/usb-type-c-what-you-need-to-know/
some groups have created their own chips that have hidden keyloggers that can phone home over network connections.
Termina un año más, inicia otro, y acá andamos escribiendo nuestros pensamientos en un archivo twtxt.txt
A ti, que estas leyendo esto, te deseo mucho enfoque, superar tus sesgos, disfrutar el momento y seguir actuando para llegar a tu máximo.
¡Buena vibra!
Did something chchange with how the discover feed is generated? My pods logout mode now only shows my twts. It used to be all twts from watcher observation like my logged on discover tab. @prologic@twtxt.net
@prologic@twtxt.net and @justamoment, this Gitxt project sounds really interesting. Can you tell us about some of your goals?
Bon voyage @melyanna@tilde.club
@prologic@twtxt.net billionaires don’t exist. That many resources tied up by single individuals muck up the whole system.
@prologic@twtxt.net see where its used maybe that can help.

This is an upsert. So I pass a streamID which is like a globally unique id for the object. And then see how the type of the parameter in the function is used to infer the generic type. In the function it will create a new *Info and populate it from the datastore to pass to the function. The func will do its modifications and if it returns a nil error it will commit the changes.
The PA type contract ensures that the type fulfills the Aggregate interface and is a pointer to type at compile time.
@prologic@twtxt.net so basically you would use cgit + gitbug with some webhooks?
@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net The whole ActivityPub integration of Gitea for so-called “Federation” (which btw is a bullshit term) is just total nonsense. I mean I “get it”, and understand the motivations behind it, but FFS, it would have been done without ActivityPub 🤦♂️
Hey @prologic@twtxt.net, are you planning on switching git.mills.io over to Forgejo when it launches?
@prologic@twtxt.net I started to write a snarky twt about Kafka and then deleted it because I didn’t want to be too negative 😆
Tutorial: Getting started with generics - The Go Programming Language – Okay @xuu@txt.sour.is I quite like Go’s generics now 🤣 After going through this myself I like the semantics and the syntax. I’m glad they did a lot of work on this to keep it simple to both understand and use (just like the rest of Go) 👌
#GoLang #Generics
@prologic@twtxt.net its only a Pre-JR dev level.
@prologic@twtxt.net @justamoment@twtxt.net Yep, my back yard security cam. And my poor weather station buried in the snow.
@prologic@twtxt.net same.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org anyone willing to copy/paste security related things without understanding are gonna have a bad time.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Its just dead simple.. and others will salt which makes repeatability in examples a pain.
@me@eapl.mx you are lucky you can get off easy with just “give me $10”! In the US $10 does nothing. You need to give, at least, $50. 😂
$name$ and then dispatch the hashing or checking to its specific format.
@xuu@txt.sour.is Really sweet! Why did you pick MD5 as the example?
@maya@maya.land should twt again
how install gomodot? also.. @prologic@twtxt.net your domain has some pretty strong SEO mojo searching for install "gomodot" puts you on the google first page. 
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org im talking like some JS projects i have seen with 1-2G node_modules dirs. though yarn is quite vast in its modules because it does a LOOOOOOT of stuff in the background.
@carsten@yarn.zn80.net what type of NAS? I just upgraded my oooold (~2008) Drobo to a Synology. I have been impressed with all the neat stuff it can do.
@eaplmx@twtxt.net i used internet when it cost 13c per minute. my parents would get so mad if i went over the monthly base minutes CompuServe gave us.
@prologic@twtxt.net duud use an ad block on youtube.
@prologic@twtxt.net ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@prologic@twtxt.net “_foo_”
@prologic@twtxt.net “foo”
@eaplmx@twtxt.net This exact thing happened to me last night. I happened to be watching some random Youtube video, then this Ad came on, normally they are short 3-5s ads and I just tolerate them (sometimes) – But this particular ad was 20+ mins long! Somehow I kept listening to it too, despite my daughter telling me I could hit that “Skip Ad” button.
What was it you ask?! 😅 It was one of those testimonial-style, hyped up marketing videos of some product called “Gemini 2” (a currency trading app, allegedly), I kept watching all the way through, it was fantastic! 🤣
Then I went and read up on it! …
Short answer: TOTAL FUCKING SCAM 🤣
@prologic@twtxt.net the go get and go mod tidy wont fetch new changes. that’s all a manual affair AFAIK
Tenía un rato sin escribir en el twt (twtxt.txt)
Ha sido un fin de semana de bastante descanso, antes de cerrar la semana final de clases y preparación de las clases de Enero.
He encontrado gusto de ofrecer clases para jóvenes, y me ando preparando para cursos más avanzados, y ¿Por qué no? Abrir una escuela o centro de capacitación especializado en tecnología.
@prologic@twtxt.net.. hmm and now they are gone. :(
@prologic@twtxt.net I’m sure Monroe would like to know about them.
@eaplmx@twtxt.net I didn’t like the original click wheel. I think the first mini wheel was the better of them
` `` `
@movq@uninformativ.de yeah.. i rewrote it a few times because i thought there was something breaking.. but was mistaken
though now i am seeing a weird cache corruption.. that seems to come and go.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @prologic@twtxt.net yeah that was how i did it too. I think ill start using the debug version in new stuff since its been added. My comment was around assigning the result of an anonymous function to a a variable.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org nice sunset is an understatement. I can feel the coolness approaching!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ` `` `
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ill check this out.. also.. why the heck is my reply trying to set the subject to #bd3yzvq)
